Swallowing Star looked at the humans around him with some surprise, looking squarely at such a small creature for the first time.
"You seem to know a lot of things?"
His rough voice echoed in the empty bridge, and the dark cabin only now revealed how much space there was in the darkness covered by darkness.
This human being not only knows that he needs life energy, soul energy, and cosmic energy, but he even knows about eternal existence. This is not like the people on such a stupid planet.
I always feel like I have some impression of the earth. Have you been there before?
...I can’t remember, I’m so hungry.
Su Ming patted Yan Xing's thigh, and the high-tech armor made a dull sound: "Wu Lang, the person who knows you best is me. I know everything you want, because I am... Yin's mother
!”
Several black lines seemed to fall on Yanxing's head. Isn't this the same as not saying anything?
But forget it, you're just a human being anyway, a little secret doesn't hurt.
"Where is the food you mentioned?"
Galactus pressed a few buttons on his purple throne and called up the star map to prepare to change the route. He was tempted by the fast food that would be available in 'five minutes' and seemed to completely forget that there was a fallen person outside.
thing.
Dead Fish Eye's voice became a little weird: "Wulang, our target is in the constellation Andromeda. Human naming methods may not be universal enough, but there is a pair of 'eclipsing stars' in this galaxy, and the food is there."
This has changed from 'you and me' to us. Unknowingly, he seemed to be standing in the position of Galactus and thinking about eating the world.
An eclipsing binary star, also known as an eclipsing binary star, a photometric binary star, or an eclipsing variable star, refers to two stars that move around a common center of mass under the influence of mutual gravity, orbiting each other and occluding each other.
From the perspective of the planets in this planetary system, the two suns will constantly replace each other, causing regular and periodic changes in brightness.
The light change period of a binary star is their rotation period. The shortest light change period is only a few hours, such as UX Ursa Major, which has a light change period of 4 hours and 43 minutes; the longest light change period, such as V644 Centauri, is as long as 65
Earth year.
The home star of the Skrull Empire, Skrullos, is located in the S Andromeda planetary system with an eclipsing star system. The cycle of these two stars alternating is one Skrull year, which is more than Earth years.
a few days.
Galactus activated the battleship's scanner and almost instantly completed the exploration of the entire Andromeda constellation. The floating projection jumped out, showing a planet.
It was a highly mechanized planet, as if it had undergone planetary urbanization. Everything that caught the eye was covered with metal, shining brightly under the light of two stars.
Yes, this is the home planet of the Skrulls. Their technological level is very high, and they even created a Cosmic Cube 'World Shaper' to transform their homeland, forcing their old enemies the Kree to create supreme intelligence to compete.
The World Shaper took the form of a dark blue glowing Skrull, and it destroyed two-thirds of the colony of the Skrull Empire in its first trial run.
In fact, it's not to blame. The Skrulls created the Tesseract in order to transform the planets of their empire, making them more livable, capable of supporting a larger population, and providing more resources.
But the Skrulls, including the plastic surgeons themselves, have not yet understood that other needs are easy to say, except for things like life and soul, which cannot be created out of nothing with their level of power.
Therefore, this great transformation plan is equivalent to destroying 75% of the colonial stars in the Skrull territory, and transferring all the resources above to the remaining 25% of the colonial stars. The population has nothing to do, and it will die if it dies.
At this point, Skrull almost didn't return to primitive society, because even the lucky ones living on 25% of the planets still have to face the problem of "resources dropped from the sky".
Trillions of tons of various metals and an ocean thousands of times the size of the original planet were suddenly 'transformed' onto the surviving planet.
Earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, mutant creatures, etc. followed one after another. The Skrulls had been trying to survive the doomsday for hundreds of years, and the population plummeted by 90%. Even as the size of the planet increased, the sudden increase in gravity was not something that ordinary people could bear.
Not to mention the dangers lurking in the apocalypse.
The Skrull Empire was almost killed by its own creation. They wanted to destroy the World Shaper. Of course they had to escape. They don't know where they are hidden in the universe yet.
The plan was made by the Skrulls, and the Shaper only carried out their orders, but it was blamed for the trouble. The Skrulls went too far, so it ran away.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, the Cree also created supreme wisdom during those tragic years.
The Supreme Intelligence secretly carried out power seizure and purge plans within the Kree Empire. It was busy with internal fighting and could not spare any effort to deal with Skrull. It was also a turbulent era for the Kree.
However, good times came after the Skrulls survived those years. The rich resources allowed them to complete the transformation of planets one by one. The relatively small but extremely rich colonial stars also allowed them to not need too many troops to defend, and they could free up more
Many people were deployed to deal with the Kree.
What Su Ming and Yanxing are looking at now is the modified Skross, a half-natural, half-artificial giant celestial body, one of the wonders of the universe.
The planet in the projection is slowly rotating, and various spacecrafts are coming and going in the busy airport. Even on the dark side, the planet is still brightly lit.
The probe hacked into the Skrull network, read their civilization and knowledge, played some short clips of the Skrulls' lives, and then listed the total amount of energy that the planet could convert and other data in front of Galactus.
With just one glance, Swallowing Star knew that Yinta's mother was right. The useful energy of this planet was almost ten times that of the earth.
If eating the earth can save you from hunger for three years, eating this planet can help you survive for thirty years.
"But there is a very prosperous civilization on this planet."
However, Galactus was not very happy. He hesitated a little. He was more inclined to eat those less 'civilized' intelligent beings rather than the capital of such a cosmic empire.
The ship's host computer projected countless screens, and the bridge, which was dark just now, suddenly became brighter. Screens of various sizes filled the sky like stars, showing the daily lives of the Skrulls, their families, and their lives.
Society, how they get along with their fellow citizens, everything seems very warm.
The little Skrull's eyes have not yet opened. He holds his mother's hand while sleeping and murmurs childish words. There is a warm smile on his mother's face, teaching him to defeat the Kree Smurfs when he grows up.
The workers were busy on the mechanical assembly line, watching the war machines coming down from above and onto the battlefield of expanding territory. They were pleased with the fruits of their labor.
The old Skrull sat in the beautiful garden and told the young man how he slaughtered the Kree back then, with honor and pride on his face.
All kinds of emotions and various existences made Yan Xing somewhat hesitant.
He wanted to ask Yin's opinion. If he could find such nutritious food, this human being was already his recognized messenger.
The human with dead fish eyes took out a book from somewhere, drooled over it, turned a few pages, and started reading without warning.
"Planet lion head is made of 60% metal and 40% ocean. Add onions, ginger, eggs and other ingredients and chop it into star paste to make meatballs the size of space eggs. They can be steamed or braised, fat but not greasy.
Add shrimps and crab powder, cook with a planet extractor, put bean sprouts or bamboo shoots at the bottom of the pot, sprinkle a little salt, and cook over a slow fire. It will be fat but not greasy, melt in the mouth, and have a soft yet firm texture. The soup
The juice is wrapped in the filling, and the mellow aroma overflows in one bite..."
"Gu!" A sound of swallowing came from the side. Tunxing gasped and suppressed the madness in his heart: "Stop talking, that's it."
Su Ming put away the blank 'Wordless Book' and silently watched Galactus quickly change the ship's course and move towards Skros.
He put away the strangulation, and the backhand he arranged was no longer needed.
Yes, the 'booger balls' that were popped out before are actually some of the miniature tentacles of the strangler, connected to the main body through invisible filaments. If the swallowing star is fooled, Su Ming will secretly destroy the ship through strangulation.
At that time, the choice will be between having food in five minutes or having food in a few months.
But it's a good thing not to use the backhand. In three minutes at most, the crisis on the earth will be temporarily lifted.
"Wu Lang, let me tell you a joke before eating. When you are in a good mood, eating will taste delicious." In order to distract Tun Xing and avoid causing any trouble in these three minutes, Su Ming planned to tell him
Joke: "This is a joke in Chinese, it's really funny."
"Is it a joke? Is it a way for humans to mobilize other people's emotions through language? Tell me." In order to distract himself and avoid being devoured by hunger, Swallowing Star consciously stepped into the pit.
Su Ming sat next to Swallowing Star, patting his armor like an old acquaintance: "It is said that in a forest, a poisonous snake met an anaconda, and the two snakes planned to chat...
"
"Are snakes another intelligent creature on earth?" Swallowing Star suddenly interjected and asked.
"This is an anthropomorphic rhetorical device. Don't pay attention to those details. Just think they can talk." Su Ming rolled his eyes. There are indeed talking snake people underground on the earth, but now we can't let Galactus know that the earth is actually
It's a 'layer cake', he continued: "The poisonous snake said: 'I am poisonous, just bite the prey and wait for it to die before eating it'."
"Yeah." Swallowing Star didn't think anything was wrong. There are poisonous creatures all over the universe.
The counterfeit Yin's mother continued: "At this time, the anaconda smiled disdainfully and said, 'That's too much trouble for you. I just need to entangle the prey, hang it, and eat it immediately.'" Wulang, guess what happened to the poisonous snake?
What did you say when you came down?"
Tunxing sat on the throne and held his stomach. If he had to choose, it would be better to eat immediately. He felt the same hunger.
"So Viper gave in?"
He feels that his means are not as good as others, so it is normal for him to admit that the other party is powerful.
Su Ming sighed. The test results of Galactus showed that he didn't have much emotional intelligence. If it was his little cousin who came, he would definitely understand what his cousin was talking about.
If everything in this world was so realistic and normal, how could there be any jokes?
He sighed in his heart, but he still said the last burden with a smile on his face: "The poisonous snake said to the anaconda: 'If you wrap yourself around it, you are despicable!'..."
