In the depths of the dense forest behind the camp, on a patch of blue grass, Ding Meng once again saw the hemispherical tent built from the Poison Obstruction Astral Plant. This was originally Xueyan's private quarters.
After entering the tent, Ding Meng was greeted by various control panels and live simulation screens in the form of light. Ding Meng said in surprise, "You guys turned this place into Shenguang Biotechnology's control room?"
Ding Wenhe gently swiped her hand through the air and connected to the instant communication channel.
Her gesture was exactly the same as Little Rascal's gesture of mobilizing the various Shenguang energy sources. Ding Meng was even more surprised. "Big Sis, you know how to use Shenguang Biotechnology too?"
Ding Wenhe laughed. "It's not that difficult. As long as your emotions and will reach a state of mutual compatibility, it's enough."
Ding Meng could not help but sigh in admiration. He did not really understand this principle, but he knew that when it came to talent, there were specializations in each field. People like Xin Jie had made rapid progress in learning Red Guest technology, while Ding Meng could also learn by analogy after coming into contact with Shenguang Biotechnology. As for Ding Meng, he was just a coolie who could only fight on the frontlines.
Little Rascal's image quickly appeared in the room. "Ding Meng, why are you running around? You've disrupted my plans!
Didn't I ask you to look for the Doctor's research results and the original list of names?
What are you doing here on Planet V9? "
Ding Meng's eyelids drooped. "I didn't want to, but I can't just sit by and watch Jin Tai and the others die."
Little Rascal sighed helplessly. "Sigh, that's right. It's not your style to leave them in the lurch."
Ding Meng said, "What did I do to disrupt your plans?"
Little Rascal said seriously, "The room you're in now is a temporary command post we built. The Divine Arrow Spaceship's energy source was already very low when we returned to Planet V4, and the command post used up a lot of energy. We're very short on energy right now."
The Divine Arrow spaceship's energy storage came from Shenguang Technology. Normal crystal energy and silver core stones were unable to support its consumption, and the Federal Empire did not have Shenguang energy. Of course, they could find a more high-end energy source to temporarily replace it, but in a remote place like Planet V4, there was only one word to describe it: "poor and useless."
"Could it be on Planet V9?" Ding Meng was curious.
Little Rascal said, "We have already observed this secret base of the Star Rainbow Corporation for a period of time. The transport ship it teleported back was loaded with a large number of reverse source crystals and various rare metals. Moreover, there were also True Origin Crystals with a lower content. That is exactly what I want."
The True Elemental Crystal was the True Elemental Red Crystal that had recovered Little Rascal's true form. It was thousands of times stronger than normal Crystal Energy and was not a product of the Federation's main star system. The True Elemental Crystal to the True Elemental Red Crystal was like the Crystal Energy to the Inverse Elemental Crystal. Now that Little Rascal said that there were True Elemental Crystals with low content, Ding Meng was shocked. "Where did they find them?"
Little Rascal said, "Just follow this train of thought. Where did Qu Jing send these spaceships to?
We are also curious. "
Ding Meng said hesitantly, "You can't find out?"
Little Rascal imitated him and lowered his eyelids. "My idea is to let them hoard these resources for a period of time before summoning you back. I'll have Xin Jie hack their system, and you and Big Sis Xia can either steal or rob them. Once our spaceship is recharged, we'll rob their warp mirror teleportation portal and send it to a fixed coordinate. We'll see where they got these things from, and then we'll rob them a second time …"
Ding Meng was speechless. I have always been sneaking around, but you, on the other hand, are directly robbing them in broad daylight. It turns out that you are playing bigger than me. However, this is also normal because this is Little Rascal's style.
Little Rascal sighed. "It's all good now. Don't think about anything else."
Ding Meng said, "Why?
Is it because I alerted the enemy? "
Little Rascal said, "Qu Jing from base V9 has sent reinforcements. Right now, there are two Battle-Saints here. They are even stronger than the three Battle-Saints you killed. We are going to steal from them, but Sister Xia is definitely not their match alone."
Ding Meng said, "So it's my fault!"
Little Rascal waved his hand and said, "It's not entirely your fault. I've discussed it with Xin Jie and decided to put the energy problem aside for now. It's like not knowing your next meal. We are very strong technologically, but we are very lacking in manpower. If there is a slightly more advanced energy source, we should consider nurturing some powerful experts in the short term."
If anyone else heard this, it would sound like a fantasy story, but Ding Meng understood. With the help of Mou Xing's arts, it was indeed possible to forcibly raise one's strength in a short period of time. Wasn't Su Xia a good example?
Ding Meng said, "You want me to go get energy?"
Little Rascal said, "That's right. Go steal, rob, make money, and do evil … In any case, I don't care what you do. Just send me something good from the Federation. Right now, we can only operate in outer space. Our resources are too poor."
Ding Meng's eyelids drooped. "Finding money is not my strong suit."
Little Rascal immediately shouted, "Find someone to help you! Isn't Miss Irene still on planet KV303?
Her family's company is in the metal business. "
Ding Meng said in surprise, "You know why Irene is there?"
"Tsk!" Little Rascal was dissatisfied. "You think you haven't been in the limelight yet?
You even managed to steal Miss Dai during the engagement ceremony! "
"Ahem!"
Whenever he thought of Dai Yi, a pair of flawless legs appeared in Ding Meng's mind. Yes, yes, these legs are good, these legs are good.
As expected of the worm in his stomach, Little Rascal knew what he was thinking. He smiled evilly and said, "How was it?
You should be able to get her this time, right?
Long legs, huh? "
Ding Meng's face turned red. "I got her, I got her. So what?"
Little Rascal laughed even harder. "Hahaha, you've finally tasted meat. According to the customs of the Federation, Miss Dai should be on her period now, right?
Since you've tasted the sweetness, it's time to get down to business. You can't possibly indulge yourself in the pleasures of a woman every day and leave me aside, right? "
Ding Meng felt a headache coming on. "Where am I going to get you money and resources?"
Little Rascal said, "I don't care, I don't care. That's your business. I'm also at a critical juncture in my cultivation. I'm lacking energy and resources. Also, Sister Wen-He is also at a critical juncture. If she can't break through to become a warlord, she won't be able to truly control Shenguang Biotechnology. You don't want to see that happen, do you?"
"Fine, fine, fine. I'll go, I'll go!" Ding Meng could only raise his hands in surrender when faced with Little Rascal.
Little Rascal pondered for a moment and said, "You should go back to the Federation first. After the commotion on Planet V9, I reckon Shenghao Corporation will be facing a lot of pressure soon."
Ding Meng threw up his hands and said, "But I don't have a starship or spaceship now, and the wristband I'm wearing belongs to someone else. If I can't contact Commander Meng Yan and the others, how can I go back?"
Little Rascal sighed helplessly. "Forget it. You're the only one who can get this treatment. Let Sister Wen-He help you!"
After saying that, the call ended. Little Rascal's image slowly disappeared.
Ding Meng turned around and said, "What's the meaning of this, Little Rascal?"
Ding Wenhe said seriously, "Ding Meng, do you still remember how the princess sent us here?"
Ding Meng nodded. "The Holy Spirits, after all."
Ding Wenhe said, "Actually, the Holy Spirits are a branch of Shenguang Biotechnology. I believe you have some understanding of it by now."
Ding Meng said in surprise, "Big Sis, you can control the Holy Spirits now?"
Ding Wenhe nodded and said, "You can't say that I can control them. With the remaining power left in the command center, I can activate the Shenguang teleportation portal, but the furthest I can send you is back to Planet KV303. If you reach the Federation's territory, I'm afraid the space station will be alerted."
Actually, it was enough to send them back to Planet KV303. That Shenghao Corporation Spirit Light spaceship was still docked at the spaceport. In that case, it would not take them too long to return to Blue Pole City.
Ding Wenhe said, "But Jin Tai and the others must stay behind."
Ding Meng asked curiously, "Why?"
Ding Wenhe said, "We also need the core technology for the Poison Propulsion Engine. We can't let it fall into the hands of Ling Xingqi and the others. That would cause a lot of trouble."
Ding Meng frowned and said, "Are you referring to the True Origin Crystals?"
Ding Wenhe did not answer for a long time this time. She paced back and forth in the room. "Ding Meng, I've talked to Little Rascal, Little Rascal, Little Rascal, and I know that you've been to the Divine Wars Starfield for the past seven years and have come into contact with many strange people and strange things that you've never come into contact with before. Have you thought about a question carefully?"
Ding Meng asked, "What question?"
Ding Wenhe muttered, "Our Dasheng Civilization, the Federal Empire here, the Frogman Race's Devouring Domain, and the Divine Wars Starfield a few hundred light-years away might all be products of the Mou Xing Civilization."
Ding Meng's expression changed. "Why do you think so?"
Ding Wenhe said, "Little Rascal was not alone when she wandered into our starfield. The generals, soldiers, and attendants who were protecting her all arrived at the same time and were scattered in different places. This includes Shenguang Technology and Mou Xing Weapons. They created these strange phenomena, such as the Shenguang Dimensional Warehouse, the Singularity, the Holy Tree, and the Holy Spirit. Think about it carefully. Don't the Dasheng Dynasty, the Divine Wars Starfield, the Federal Empire, and the other major starfields all have these characteristics?"
Ding Meng thought for a while. "Now that you mention it, it does seem to be the case."
Ding Wenhe said, "The True Origin Crystals are not products of this starfield. After all, they are things that are only born in the mainstream starfields of the universe. How could the Starbow Corporation have discovered them?"
Ding Meng seemed to have understood something. "Big Sis, are you saying that Qu Jing of Planet V9 sent the Starbow Corporation's spaceship very far away?"
Ding Wenhe smiled. "Your train of thought is wrong. No matter how Qu Jing teleported, he could not have sent the spaceship to a starfield that was hundreds of millions of light years away. Moreover, it was a ship-class unit. Even if it was thousands of light years away, it would not have been possible."
Ding Meng also understood this logic. A spaceship was not a starship. At most, it could travel dozens of light years. It was not possible to travel hundreds of light years. This was because spaceships did not have the capital to travel long distances. Their various facilities could not withstand such a long period of time.
Ding Meng reacted. "The Starbow Corporation's Qu Jing is still within the boundaries of this main star system?"
Ding Wenhe nodded. "This is my personal guess. Ling Xingqi of the Starbow Corporation, or rather, her team, must have discovered the ruins of a Mou Xing Singularity in outer space. There were remnants of very low quality True Origin Crystals there. She must have discovered them many years ago."
This was really shocking, but Ding Meng had to admit that it made sense. Otherwise, why would the Starbow Corporation research the Qu Jing technology?
Why would they establish this secret base on Planet V9?
All the clues and traces were in line with Ding Wenhe's deductions.
"But I'm guessing that she has not discovered the core of that place yet!"
Ding Wenhe's words were shocking again. "They are eager to obtain the technology of Jin Tai and the others. They want to upgrade the Phantom Poison Ship to a Phantom Starship and teleport to even further places!"
Ding Meng suddenly understood. Big Sis Wenhe's brain was still good at this critical moment. She had actually thought so far ahead. No wonder Little Rascal wanted him to quickly return to the Federation. He wanted to find out the exact coordinates of the Starbow Corporation's teleportation.
Ding Meng suddenly thought of someone — Mr. Cuttle!
However, he quickly rejected this idea. This was definitely a secret of the Starbow Corporation. Even Mr. Cuttle might not know about it!
