Chapter 3 Foreign Aid
As the first heir of the Wang family in Xuannv Galaxy, Wang Sen really needs a strong foreign aid when facing strong competition from his younger brother.
At first, he did not think about taking Xuefeng for himself, but through talking with Qi Yiming and observing Xuefeng at close range.
The opponent only used one shot to bombard a huge asteroid and deviate from its original orbit. From the side, it can be seen that the combat effectiveness of the opponent's warships is not something that his two frigates can compete with.
It is better to have one more friend than one more powerful enemy.
So after confirming that Qi Yiming is a free fighter, Wang Sen gave up the idea of robbing Xuefeng and turned to win over Qi Yiming, hoping that Qi Yiming would become a major foreign aid in his competition for succession.
At this time, Qi Yiming was confused, but his expression was natural. The whole person seemed to be accustomed to these invitations. If there is an award for Best Actor, Qi Yiming is definitely the best candidate for the award.
Seeing Qi Yiming still didn't respond, Wang Sen became a little anxious, thinking that he didn't offer specific conditions, which made Qi Yiming mistakenly think that he didn't value him.
Wang Sen hurriedly added: "As a reward for joining my Wang family, I will personally provide three high-concentration energy blocks for your warship every month. As for your personal treatment, I will try my best to fight for you after reporting to the head of the family."
Qi Yiming didn't hear anything else clearly, but he heard the three high-concentration energy blocks clearly.
But Qi Yiming remained unmoved, and frowned instead, as if thinking about whether the conditions given by Wang Sen were appropriate.
In fact, Qi Yiming was very excited: "High-concentration energy blocks, one block is enough for the Xuefeng to travel normally for half a month. If a battle occurs, it can also support about five days at full firepower. This deal seems to be worth it."
Qi Yiming, who was calculating, did not respond to Wang Sen in time, which made Wang Sen, who was extremely worried, a little anxious.
Wang Sen actually imagined that Qi Yiming was not going to release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Qi, to show my sincerity, I can give you an energy block now. I came out in a hurry this time, and there are only these in the warship warehouse! I will give you the rest when we return to the Xuannv Galaxy."
If Qi Yiming still tensed up at this time, this play would be a bit too much, and he would lose the style of an actor.
So he changed his gloomy face and said to Wang Sen with a smile, "Mr. Wang is really a great man, so I will accept it with reluctance. As for the remaining energy blocks, I believe Mr. Wang is not the kind of person who does not keep his word."
Wang Sen's lips twitched twice and whispered, "Another fucking money-grubber!!"
"Mr. Wang, what did you say? I didn't hear it clearly!"
"Nothing, I mean I will send someone to deliver the energy block."
Qi Yiming would not let the other party board the ship. If he found that he was the only one on the Xuefeng, he could imagine what would happen.
But he couldn't do it too obviously to avoid arousing the other party's suspicion, so Qi Yiming wore exoskeleton armor and held the self-defense weapons used in the ship to block the hatch of Xuefeng.
When the people sent by Wang Sen delivered the energy block, Qi Yiming rudely rejected the other party's request for a visit.
Wang Sen once thought that he had been fooled. If they were going to join him, why didn't he let his people visit the inside of the warship?
But Qi Yiming's words dispelled Wang Sen's doubts: "I'm sorry, there are members on the ship who are infected with level 3 alien creatures, which are extremely contagious. Outsiders cannot enter the warship to visit before they are completely cured."
Although level 3 alien creatures are not fatal, they are also very troublesome to deal with, and necessary isolation measures are still needed.
"That's a pity, do you need help?" Wang Sen, who put aside his doubts, looked much warmer.
However, seeing Qi Yiming personally taking the energy block into the battleship's power compartment, Wang Sen still asked in confusion: "Mr. Qi, do you need to do it yourself to replace the energy block?"
"The crew members are all in quarantine, and only I, the captain, have the authority to move around, so I have to do this kind of work!"
"Then you are really a kind captain."
But when Wang Sen saw Qi Yiming take out a fingernail-sized energy block from the battleship's power furnace, his face suddenly turned black.
"Mr. Qi, you... you are really brave!!!" Wang Sen regretted it so much. If he had known that the other party's remaining energy was not enough to fire, he would not have needed to be so careful and could have just grabbed it directly.
But it was too late to say anything now. The engine of the Xuefeng, which had replaced the new energy block, had been started, and the main gun was calibrating the sighting equipment under the control of the fire control system. The secondary guns on both sides of the ship stretched out their black gun barrels.
Seeing that Qi Yiming was about to make a move, Wang Sen was actually a little speechless for a while.
Seeing the change in Wang Sen's expression, Qi Yiming knew that he had been misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Wang, don't get me wrong. The warship has been without energy supply for a long time, and many systems need to be restarted. This is the warship doing self-testing."
Wang Sen was relieved: "I have to say, you are the most courageous person I have ever met. You acted really well in getting something for nothing."
"Thank you for the compliment. Actually, I was scared to death just now. Look at the sweat on my forehead!"
The two of them were actually closer by joking like this.
Wang Sen originally planned to make friends. Although a high-concentration energy block is more troublesome to mass produce, it is not a hot commodity.
He was just a little surprised to find that Qi Yiming was actually at the end of his rope and he missed a great opportunity to take the Xuefeng for himself.
Since he had missed the best opportunity, Wang Sen no longer cared about Qi Yiming's empty city plan against him.
He tried his best to win over Qi Yiming, hoping that he could use him for his own benefit.
"What about the conditions I just offered you?"
"I need to investigate. This kind of thing can't be decided all at once, right?"
Qi Yiming still had the necessary caution. He couldn't treat the other party as a confidant just because he gave him an energy block, and dare to say anything and agree to anything.
"That's right, but I still sincerely hope you can join us."
Qi Yiming didn't give a clear answer, but just nodded to indicate that he would consider it.
After confirming that there were no other problems with the warship, Qi Yiming was not going to delay any longer, and said to Wang Sen: "Let's set off now, I've been on this damn planet long enough."
Soon, Wang Sen invited Qi Yiming's Xuefeng to form a fleet, and after Qi Yiming agreed, Xuefeng slowly took off and joined the small fleet.
The three warships left the atmosphere in a triangular formation, and Xuefeng began to accelerate slowly under the guidance of Wang Sen's Endeavour.
Until the speed of starting the jump engine was reached, the three warships started their own jump engines at the same time and quickly disappeared in the starry sky.
But what Qi Yiming and his men didn't know was that shortly after they left. Not far from where they started the jump engine, a micro wormhole suddenly appeared, and a small spaceship with a dazzling light emerged from the wormhole.
There was no driver in the spaceship, and a line of words quickly crossed the display screen in front of the driver's seat.
"A trace of jump is detected, the energy level is LV2, and the cleaning standard is not met. The information is deleted."
Then the micro wormhole appears again, and the small spacecraft enters the wormhole silently.
The starry sky is silent again.
Seek attention.
