Bai Xinghe looks at Li Yao quietly. The illusory stars and natural disasters are constantly passing on his face. Under the shadow of the sea of stars, his expression doesn't know whether he is crying or laughing.
Li Yao's mind is in a mess.
He once discussed with Xiong Wuji on Tieyuan star about the cause of the disaster. He also heard about the cause of the disaster from northwest Yan, a "blood devil" possessed by the Xuewen clan.
Now, I heard all this from the mouth of the White Star River, and they all corresponded to each other!
Is everything true? Is the universe really a dark forest?
Li Yao gritted his teeth and shook his head.
He instinctively felt that there was a loophole in the dark forest theory, a big loophole.
But for a while, it was elusive and incomprehensible.
Perhaps, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't like the dark forest theory, and didn't like such a ruthless universe!
Once again, Li Yao thought of what Huangfu Xiaoya and Xiong Wuji had said.
"Even if the universe is really a dark forest, we practitioners will burn life and turn it into a small spark!"
"If there is really no way to go in the dark forest, set fire and open a way!"
Only when we know the truth, can we taste the power hidden between the lines!
Li Yao took a deep breath, straightened out his chest, looked directly into Bai Xinghe's eyes, and said, "I don't like the dark forest theory. I don't like it at all."
The White Star River smiles: "the star sea, does not exist because of your likes and dislikes, whether you like it or not, the dark forest is here, around us."
Li Yao said coldly: "it seems that we are going too far. No matter whether the dark forest theory is tenable or not, what does it have to do with those who cultivate immortals?"
Bai Xinghe's voice became more ghostly: "as I said just now, the dark forest is around you and me. It's not only between different civilizations that there is a dark forest, but also within the same civilization that a dark forest can be transformed at any time."
"I don't know if you've ever heard of a group of people called 'fire thieves'
Li Yao's heart was awe inspiring.
Of course he has.
Five thousand years ago, the flying star world suffered a natural disaster. At that time, the flying star people split into two groups.
One group builds a huge star fleet, trying to transfer the whole civilization to the star ship and escape from the planet, which is called "star faction".
On the other hand, the whole world's resources are concentrated on the capital star "Tieyuan star" to build a planetary defense array to resist natural disasters, which is called "homeland faction".
Although the two schools hold different positions, they are compatriots after all. In the end, they did not completely tear their skin. Through negotiation, they divided all the supernatural powers, skills and training instruments in the flying star world into two and developed their own.
Unexpectedly, there are a group of radicals in the starry sky sect who think that Tieyuan star is doomed to be unable to resist the natural calamity. These skills and supernatural powers are also buried with them. It's better to leave them to the starry sky sect so that their future development can be more smooth.
After decades of careful planning, these radicals actually steal the dragon to the Phoenix. They steal most of the skills, powers and resources left to Tieyuan people!
These people think that what they do is for the sake of the rising fire of the flying star civilization, so they call themselves "fire thieves"!
Bai Xinghe said faintly: "it seems that you know, and you are right. Since you are the first warrior of the six departments of Tieyuan, how can you not know these guys who have made Tieyuan people unable to cultivate normally and can only be transformed into" gas refiners "
"But have you ever thought about a problem?"
"At the beginning, after the fire robber got a lot of skills, supernatural powers and training instruments, he left Tieyuan star one step ahead of time and flew to the edge of the flying star world."
"It's reasonable to say that the fire robbers also have a lot of crystal warships, and they are all experts in the star school. Moreover, they are not directly attacked by the natural disaster on the edge of the flying star world."
"However, up to now, the descendants of the Tieyuan people and the flying star fleet, who suffered a direct attack from the natural calamity, have all survived tenaciously, and have also spread their branches and leaves to various regions of the flying star world."
"Why do these people who are hiding at the edge of the flying star world and have escaped the disaster disappear instead?"
Li Yao was stunned. This question is really strange.
At that time, the three forces, the main fleets of the homeland faction and the star faction, all suffered a devastating blow.
The fire robber fleet, however, is hiding at the edge of the flying star world. Even if it is swept away by the aftermath of the disaster, the damage will not exceed the first two!
Where did they go in the long five thousand years?
Bai Xinghe sighed: "let me tell you what happened in those years. After listening to it, you will find that perhaps' Tianjie 'is far from the most terrible thing in this sea of stars!"
Li Yao raised his ears, but he was beating a drum in his heart.
White Star River: "these radicals in the star sect were not despicable and heinous villains at the beginning of the implementation of the fire stealing plan."
"On the contrary, many of them are determined, noble and willing to sacrifice their ego at any time for the sake of civilization."
"They are carrying out the" Stealing Fire Plan "with the mentality of" I will not go to hell, who will go to hell. "
"When they stole a lot of skills and magical powers from Tieyuan star and fled to the edge of the flying star world, they kept sending messages to the main fleet of XingKong faction, claiming that after the robbery and the dust settled, they would return to the main fleet and accept due sanctions."
"A lot of people even swear that once they return, they will end themselves immediately."
"All the sins are borne by us. We only wish that the civilization of flying star people will live forever and the flame will last forever!"
"This was the slogan of the fire robbers at that time!"
"It sounds unselfish, heroic and noble, doesn't it?"
White Star River's face twinkled with a grotesque smile and said, "next, when the disaster comes, it doesn't rush directly to Tieyuan star. Instead, it splits into two parts and attacks Tieyuan star and flying star fleet at the same time!"
"In an instant, the powerful disaster swept the core area of the whole flying star world. Both Tieyuan star and the flying star fleet were involved in the whirlpool of destruction. The whole flying star world was in chaos and did not recover for a thousand years!"
"The fire robber fleet, hiding at the edge of the flying star world, has observed the arrival of this powerful disaster, and has sensed that the whole core area of the flying star world is covered by devastating attacks. Of course, the connection between them and the main fleet has been cut off, because the whole main fleet is falling apart and struggling in the storm at the moment!"
"After a period of observation and analysis, perhaps a few years, the fire robber fleet confirmed one thing: the main force of Tieyuan star and flystar fleet were all destroyed in the disaster!"
"After confirming this" fact ", they were not only shocked and grieved, but also overjoyed for the rest of their lives!"
"Because they still exist!"
"They also have a large fleet, many experts and, more importantly, countless supernatural powers, skills and training instruments!"
"The fire of flying star civilization has not been completely put out. Now, they are the last hope of flying star civilization!"
"In an instant, the little guilt left on these fire thieves disappeared!"
"Judging from the results, what they have done is completely right!"
"If they don't act so boldly, the whole flying star civilization will be ruined by heaven!"
"Now, they are the last flying stars. They must inherit and rebuild civilization at all costs."
Li Yao was fascinated.
Until now, everything seems to be very reasonable, but he has a faint smell of danger.
Bai Xinghe said with a smile: "after the initial ecstasy gradually subsided, these" last flying star people "found a very fatal and completely unsolved problem."
"They lack food and fuel."
Li Yao can't help but cry: "ah?"
White Star River: "it's very easy to understand that the fire stealing operation is extremely confidential. Naturally, it's impossible for them to mobilize a large number of star ships with great publicity."
"Therefore, the number of crystal warships they control is small, and not all of them are suitable for carrying a lot of goods."
"It doesn't take up much space for skills and supernatural powers, but it takes up a lot of space for a large number of training instruments and various magic weapons."
"They don't have enough heaven and earth precepts to store so many magic weapons and training instruments."
"Food and water are hard to store for a long time."
"In order to steal as many magic weapons and training equipment as possible, they have to carry out large-scale transformation on the star ship under their control, expand the warehouse as far as possible, and reduce the carrying of food and fuel."
"Anyway, according to the plan, they will only stay on the edge of the flying star world for one or two years, at most three or five years. After the robbery is over, they will turn themselves in to the main fleet."
"This is what they repeatedly stated when talking to the main fleet. They are not traitors, and the resources they carry are not enough to carry out a journey across the world. Therefore, they will definitely turn themselves in, otherwise they will never survive."
"The main fleet naturally carries enough food and fuel, and there is enough space to create an ecological circulation system in the starry sky and create new food."
"So now, these fire thieves, these 'last flyers', are facing a very embarrassing situation."
"Now, they have the most powerful magic power, the most advanced magic weapon and the most complex training equipment in the flying star world!"
"But there is no food and fuel to survive!"
"If there is no food, people will starve to death. If there is no fuel, it will be difficult for the star ship to move. Even if there is the strongest magic weapon in the universe, it is just an iron coffin floating in the sea of stars!"
"What's more, they had been drifting on the edge of the flying star world for several years before confirming that the main fleet was completely destroyed. Even if the most strict rationing system was implemented at the beginning, there was not much food left!"
