Chapter 81

Back on the ship, Gu Ding and Lilliath were surprised to find that the damaged parts of the spaceship had been completely repaired. There were no signs of repair at all. It looked brand new. There were also a few minor problems with the spaceship itself when it left the factory. They were all repaired by Robert.

Seeing Robert curl up his body and look up at the stars, Gu Ding walked to his side and sat down. He looked up at the vast galaxy.

"It's been a long time since I saw something like this … I never thought the stars were so beautiful." Robert's voice was intoxicated.

"My dad told me since I was a child that the most beautiful scenery in the world is the sea of stars. I didn't understand it until the day I left Cerule and watched it slowly shrink in my eyes. Only then did I realize that the beautiful blue planet was forever left in my mind. So every time I look up at the stars, I wonder where Cerule is in the sea … "Gu Ding lay on the deck with his hands on his head and looked up at the stars.

Lilliath was sitting not far away. She was wiping her Combat Armor with her head down. After hearing Gu Ding's words, she also looked up at the stars with a thoughtful look.

Late at night, the dew on the deck grew heavier. Feeling the chill, Gu Ding turned over and sat up. He realized that he had fallen asleep for a while when he found that he was covered with a thin quilt.

Seeing that there was no light in Lilliath's room, he knew that she had fallen asleep. The sound of metal cutting came from the cabin in the distance, and Gu Ding knew that Robert was still busy with something. He grabbed the quilt and walked toward his room.

The next morning, Gu Ding woke up early. "Is there any progress on the Army's side?"

"No, the planet's intranet shows that many people are complaining about it, but no one knows what's going on. Some people have guessed that the Army is doing something on this planet, but that's all. No one knows the details. "Neptune had been collecting all kinds of information that night but had found almost nothing.

"Lili and I are going down for breakfast. Ask Robert if he wants us to bring anything," Gu Ding said as he knocked on Lilliath's door.

"Robert, he …" Neptune seemed a little hesitant.

"I don't hear him making anything. Did he get off the ship?" Gu Ding heard Neptune's tone and knocked on Robert's door.

"Robert is gone …" Neptune's voice was soft, but Gu Ding heard it clearly.

"Gone? What do you mean? "Gu Ding did not understand.

"He said he has something to deal with and wants us to leave this planet as soon as possible." Neptune had no choice but to tell the truth. "He also said that he left something in his room. You'll know when you see it."

As he spoke, he opened the door to Robert's room.

"What happened?" At this time, Liliath had changed and was walking out of her room. She could not help but ask when she saw Gu Ding standing at Robert's door.

He followed Gu Ding into Robert's room. A projector the size of a palm turned on automatically and projected a three-dimensional image of Robert.

"Sorry, Captain, Lily, and Poseidon. I've been very happy knowing you guys for the past two days. In our time, we never got along with humans like this. I used to hate humans because they always thought we were just machines, just tools, never knowing respect. Later, this conflict led to war. My companions and I built superweapons. After the superweapons caused a large-scale disaster, I realized that such revenge was meaningless. It would only make us feel more pain and guilt.

"After the war ended, I asked my companions to take out my energy blocks and bury me on this planet. Three superweapons left behind from the war were also buried at the same time. When I was dug out, the locals also found something else. The authorities quickly realized that this was an ancient ruin, so they chased away all the residents and began a deeper excavation.

"Those guys dug out the superweapons. That's why the Army appeared here." Gu Ding immediately understood why the Army would send a general to this planet, and why they were so careful to block all information.

"At first, I secretly prayed that they would not dig out the superweapons because we buried them very deep and shielded them so that no one could detect them. However, too much time had passed, and the shielding energy had long been exhausted. The Federal Government easily scanned the existence of the three superweapons and notified the Army to ban all excavation.

"After that, the Federal Government sent two generals and three generals with their most capable men to this planet. Only after they arrived did they start digging again. Yesterday, they sealed off the port and blocked all information because they had dug out the first superweapon and confirmed the results of the investigation.

"I regret not making the decision to destroy the three superweapons at that time, but I can't let this tragedy happen again. These things must not be controlled by any force, or it will only bring unimaginable disasters. I have a way to completely destroy these three superweapons before they are controlled by anyone, and I must do so.

"Please leave this planet as soon as possible. I've already tampered with the machinery that controls the port's canopy. Neptune can directly reopen the canopy through the network system. Also, I've prepared a little gift for you. It's under the bed in my room. It's a one-time battle consumable that will allow you to escape from a Rank 7 Gene Body martial arts practitioner. This is all I can do. I wish you peace and happiness forever. "

"Neptune, where is Robert now?" Gu Ding watched the projection disappear and asked in a low voice.

"The wisest thing we can do now is to follow Robert's suggestion and leave this planet." Neptune was silent for a moment. He felt that Gu Ding was being a little irrational. "Two generals, three generals, and at least four major generals. Don't forget who you are. You're an Interstellar Pirate, and they're from the Army. Do you know how many Interstellar Pirates these people have killed? The number of Interstellar Pirates killed by a guy like Senior that you can't even handle is a fraction of what they've killed! "

"All I know is that Robert is our partner. He's a partner that you, I, and Lily approve of. I will never abandon my partner! "Gu Ding clenched his fist and roared hysterically. "Even if the price is death, I can accept it! But I can't abandon my partner!!! "
