On the spaceship flying to the Iron-Blooded Planet, Wang Xu sat in the captain's room and learned from Scar how to control the spacecraft.
This was already the third day since they left the Earth. After blowing up the pyramid that day, they did not stay on the Earth for long and quickly took the spaceship to start their return journey.
In the past three days, Wang Xu and Scar asked many questions, including about the iron-blooded planet and spaceship piloting.
Piloting a spaceship is not simple. In safe mode, you can control the spacecraft with commands.
However, at certain times, such as plasma storms, cosmic rays, and certain special magnetic fields, the main control computer of the spacecraft is unreliable, so manually piloting the spacecraft is a required course for cosmic civilization.
Wang Xu has been studying hard these days, even to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat. After all, the opportunity to fly a spaceship is rare.
In the world of Black Super SWAT, the man in black has two real spaceships, which are hidden in the underground space like treasures. No matter which one, it is his turn to fly.
This time he learned to pilot a spaceship. If there is a chance, he can return to the world of the Men in Black and search for surviving Earthlings in the universe.
"Our iron-blooded clan's spaceships all come from the Locke Federation, which is a business alliance that has a large galaxy as its sphere of influence. We serve them as mercenaries, and they arm us with advanced technology, because they have no influence on the Locke Federation.
Said, the price of hiring us is very low, but the cost of letting Mega Man fight is quite high."
Scar explained the history of the Iron-Blooded Planet. The Predator race is very similar to the Spartans.
After their newborns are born, they will only stay with their parents for a few years, and then they will enter the military camp to learn combat skills.
From survival in the wild, hand-to-hand combat with cold weapons, to the application of various energy weapons, to piloting a spaceship, there are all kinds of learning projects.
The Predator's society implements military control. They have no businessmen, no farmers, no artists, or even scientists. Some are just soldiers.
This is a very deformed society, because in the process of development, the warriors who worshiped fighting discovered that they could live a good life as long as they knew how to fight.
In the beginning, before the Predators entered the interstellar age, they usually existed as gladiators or bodyguards of intelligent creatures.
Later, with the rise of the Rock Federation, the Rock people discovered the nature of the Predators to be warlike, loyal, honorable, and willing to die.
So under the promotion of the Locke Federation, the Predators bid farewell to the farming society and stepped onto the interstellar stage. With their fierce and fearless fighting style, they became the top thugs of the Locke Federation and the bravest mercenary group in the universe.
Today, the Iron-blooded clan already has its own place in the universe.
They themselves have 00 planets and trillions of iron-blooded people who are active on the forefront of the war.
In many wars between cosmic civilizations, a very interesting thing will be discovered, that is, both sides will display their battleships.
Hey, you hired iron-blooded mercenaries to fight. What a coincidence, I also hired iron-blooded mercenaries.
Because the hiring price of Predators is low and the price-performance ratio is extremely high, many advanced civilizations also use them to spearhead the invasion of lower civilizations.
Over time, the Predator has become equated with titles such as butcher, executioner, mercenary, and interstellar hunter. It is so prestigious that it can stop children from crying at night on some planets.
"Scar, can you tell me about your father?" Lamenting the social deconstruction of the Iron-blooded clan, Wang Xu asked the topic he cared about most.
Scar knew everything and answered. This underage Predator has already regarded Wang Xu, who followed him into the pyramid and gave him a lot of help, as a good friend: "My father is an elder. Elder is a title. Only
Only the most powerful and respected iron-blooded warriors can pass difficult tasks and become the elders of the iron-blooded clan.
Three hundred elders formed the Council of Elders to assist the leader in governing the Iron-blooded clan. My father did not rank high in the Council of Elders and was responsible for ruling the Iron-blooded Planet No. 80. It was a very barren planet with only 200 billion people and a scale of about
Fifty times that of Earth.”
"Fifty times, 200 billion people, the position of planetary governor, is this still not a high ranking?" Wang Xu is not an iron-blooded clan. He only thinks that fifty times the area and the number of 200 billion people are already countless times that of the earth.
Already.
Scar did not look back, but just explained: "The planetary governor can only stay inside the planet and is not allowed to go out to fight. This is not a good thing for the Predator."
Predators take pride in honor and war as their greatest hobby. They are a group of natural war madmen.
For people on Earth, the position of planetary governor is a dream, but for Predator warriors, they want to command the Predator fleet, invade one planet after another, and decorate their rooms with the heads of their enemies.
Under normal circumstances, the people who serve as consuls are old iron-blooded men who are old and weak and can no longer fight.
Scar's father was less than a hundred years old and was in his prime among the Predators. He took the position of consul so early and was deprived of the right to enjoy hunting. It was obvious at first glance that he was being excluded.
"It's a really unique social structure, and a different way of thinking than human beings. The heads of these hard-blooded people are so big, and they are really filled with muscles."
Wang Xu's heart was full of malice. If he were a planetary governor and governed a planet with an area fifty times that of the earth and a population of 200 billion, he would not be worried all day long.
When the time comes, making a fortune from the east or a fortune from the west will not mean that the wind will bring the wind or the rain will bring the rain.
Let’s look at Scar, the powerful second generation. If Wang Xu hadn’t appeared, according to the plot of the movie, he and the other two Predators would have died on earth.
If it were people on Earth, with such a background and father, and how many of them could fight life and death, they would have died in a drunken life long ago.
"Scar, what happened to your father?"
"We are on the wrong team. My father is the younger brother of the current leader. It turns out that the current leader is in charge. Otherwise, he is at least in charge of one of the ten largest fleets. Not to mention the chief commander, the deputy commander is at least fine."
Scar spoke in an understatement, but Wang Xu could hear the sound of swords and swords in his tone.
From ancient times to the present, conflicts for power and position have never been eliminated. Even if the Iron-blooded clan implements militarized management, the struggle between managers and the managed will not end.
Wang Xu did not ask any more questions, because if he continued to ask any more questions, he would have to ask some embarrassing questions.
Thinking about it, Scar didn't want to talk about how his father was on the wrong team and how he was punished and ostracized. After all, this was not an honorable thing.
"In two days, the spacecraft will enter the wormhole closest to us and complete the space jump within three months. The feeling of space jump is not very good. I suggest you go to the sleeping cabin to rest. When you wake up again, we will
We've arrived at Iron Blood Planet 80." Scar sat in the cockpit of the spaceship, looking at the computer control screen in front of him, and said to Wang Xu without looking back.
Wang Xu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked: "Can't your spaceship open the wormhole by itself and complete the space jump?"
"How is it possible to complete a space jump by yourself? Wormholes are singularities in the universe. If you rely on yourself to open the singularity, even using a galaxy as an energy source is not enough." Scar's answer was very different from what Wang Xu knew.
In the world of Black Super SWAT, advanced spaceships can perform space jumps, which does not seem to consume much.
The world of Predator cannot do this, either because space technology has not yet broken through, or because there are differences between the two universes.
It should be the latter. I remember there was a book called The Three-Body Problem. The technological system in it was so huge that even dimensionality reduction attacks appeared, and there was no so-called space jump.
It stands to reason that weapons that knock down a galaxy or even a civilization are rarely heard of even in the world of black super police. Apart from the differences in the rules of the universe and the world, Wang Xu can't think of why there is no means of space jumping.
"Is it safe to use wormholes for space jumps?" The technology of Jagged Universe is a bit unreliable, which makes Wang Xu faintly worried.
Scar patted the armor on his body and said with confidence: "Don't worry while I do the work."
Wang Xu raised his eyes and said nothing. He just lit a cigarette silently and took a puff: "Hiss"
