663 The Crouching Dragon and the young Phoenix took action
Link went to the warehouse of the mechanical fortress alone.
The “battle” with the aliens had been short, but it had caused quite a stir. the cargo hold was located at the bottom of the mechanical fortress, and it was also the place where sound was transmitted the loudest. Although sound couldn’t be transmitted in a vacuum, the mechanical fortress ‘transformation into a black throne, the bombardment of the spirit power cannons, and the transportation of the two spaceships all made quite a lot of noise and movement.
With the awareness of the macaw and the legendary silver hand, it was hard not to hear these sounds. However, there were no porthole in the warehouse. They could hear the sound but could not see what was happening. The two were so anxious that they scratched their ears and cheeks.
“what’s going on outside? According to the time, they’ve just left the Galaxy, how did they cause such a big commotion?” The macaw was puzzled.
Silver hand scratched his head, anxiety written all over his face. It was a waste of time to guess, since he couldn’t get out anyway.
The defense outside was tight. Both of them knew how powerful Troy and Helen were, and there were no blind spots in the mechanical fortress. So, they hid in the cargo cabin the whole time, afraid that link would find them and kick them back to the wasteland. Fortunately, the two of them had made sufficient preparations before they sneaked in. The macaw had prepared a single container of food and water, so there was plenty of food. the only bad thing was that the macaw only brought junk food.
Imagine the two of them hiding in a sealed warehouse at night, singing the same tune and not daring to show their faces. How despairing would that be?
The macaw and silver hand leaned against the container and came out for a breath of air.
There were only sparse lights in the warehouse, but it didn’t prevent the two people’s extremely Haggard faces from being clearly illuminated.
Their faces were dark, and they had two big black eye bags. They looked dispirited.
“Sigh, when will these days end?” Silver hand said with a sobbing tone. The universe he was looking forward to should be an interstellar war, full of all kinds of strange things, rich races in the universe, and an unprecedented energy system. He would not be hiding in the warehouse and farting with this stupid bird in front of him every day.
the macaw glanced at silver hand and said, ” “Steady, don’t panic! He must have just left the Galaxy and was still far from the bustling area. at the very least, we need to go to a place with a dock where we can hear the sound of the crowd outside. only then can we sneak out. If we rush out now, all our previous efforts will be in vain.”
The macaw’s head gradually approached the Silver Hand and brainwashed it, ” “think about it, masha will be furious if she finds out that you’re missing. If link finds you on the ship, he’ll send you back without a second thought. We’ll have to face the wrath of both John and Marsha.”
the macaw held down the silver hand that was about to speak. ” I know you want to say that you’re not afraid of John, but ask yourself, are you afraid of Marsha? ”
Masha’s face appeared in silver hand’s mind, and he hesitated.
He wasn’t afraid of anything, but the two of them.
One of them was link, and the other was Masha.
Link was always sweet-talking and would often analyze the situation and sell her out. He would even count the money for her.
Marsha was more like a mother. Silver hand didn’t want to disappoint her or make her feel sad.
Silver hand thought that this made sense. In order to not see Marsha’s disappointed expression, silver hand decided to continue hiding.
Just as the two reached an agreement, silver hand suddenly heard a movement outside, and he could sense that this force was very powerful.
Silver hand’s face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed in a low voice, ” “Oh no, Link’s here!”
Hearing Link’s name, the two of them quickly hid in the container, their eyes filled with confusion. What was link doing in the warehouse? Had they been discovered?
However, silver hand immediately denied this speculation after some careful thought. She had been doing reconnaissance every day. Other than the first day when they were unloading the cargo, there were very few people in the warehouse. There were no surveillance cameras in the warehouse, so how did link know they were here?
The macaw was more courageous. It lowered its wings with all its might, indicating for the Silver Hand not to get excited and to wait and see. Perhaps link was just here for a stroll, or he had hidden something in the warehouse and would leave after taking it. The Silver Hand was already panicking without even knowing why link had come.
As soon as they hid, link opened the cargo hold door.
the light from the outside shone in through the door, accompanied by the creaking of the iron door. it was as if two small knives had stabbed into the hearts of the macaw and silver hand. they suddenly tensed up and were so scared that they did not dare to breathe.
Link’s footsteps were elegant and slow. Every step he made on the iron splint was etched in their hearts.
Suddenly, Lin Ke stopped in his tracks. Judging from the sound, he seemed to have stopped in front of the cargo container they were hiding in.
The hearts of the macaw and silver hand were in their throats.
“Alright, stop hiding. I already knew you were here.” Lin Ke said as he crossed his arms and looked at the container.
the macaw pressed down hard on silver hand’s shoulder, indicating that he shouldn’t go out. this was all link’s trick.
However, there was no movement after he finished speaking, as if he was talking to himself.
Link shrugged helplessly. The two of them really wouldn’t give up until he found them. They wouldn’t admit it until he personally dragged them out.
Link stepped forward and opened the warehouse. The light shone on the macaw and silver hand, as if they were frozen in place.
“You’re still hiding?” Asked link.
The macaw and the Silver Hand didn’t move at all, as if they were dead. They imagined themselves to be transparent air and began an outrageous performance art.
Link couldn’t help but chuckle at the two’s performance.”Alright, stop pretending. John and Marsha knew you two had escaped when we were still on wasteland star. They also wanted me to tell you something, and that is to take care of yourself.”
Link then turned to the macaw and said,”As for you, even if I didn’t invite you, you’d definitely find a way to board the ship. I’ll be here anyway, so why should I tell you?”
The macaw was dumbfounded by Link’s words. It had never seen such a shameless person.
“Aren’t you just trying to mess with me! Getting on the ship openly and being served with good food and drinks every day is nothing like hiding in the dark and damp warehouse and eating farts!” The macaw complained in its soul.
Link was thick-skinned enough to show his sympathy for the macaw, but his expression did not change.”As for why I didn’t expose you two, I wanted to teach you a lesson. There were many powers in the universe, and the situation was complicated. The races were as vast as smoke. Every race had different habits and personalities, and they had to be treated with caution. Otherwise, sometimes, you wouldn’t even know when or why you would offend a powerful force in the universe. Both of you are rash and impulsive, so I’ll take this as a lesson for you and I won’t pursue it any further.”
The macaw was so angry that its lungs were about to explode.
“Good fellow! Good fellow! Link, you’re the one who tricked us, but now you’re not pursuing it. You’re really making bogus accusations!”
Link’s expression became even more ferocious. He clutched his chest and said,”You’ve only been sulking for three days and eating farts for three days! i, on the other hand, felt as if my heart had been cut by a knife for three days! “I know that you’re suffering, but in order to educate you, I can’t free you in advance. Do you know how it feels to watch your backbone general suffer? No, you don’t understand! You’re all thinking about how to go out and risk your lives. Only I, link, care about your lives!”
Link’s words rendered the macaw and the Silver Hand speechless and rooted to the ground.
although this guy was shouting so loudly, it actually made some f * cking sense!
Link didn’t intend to pursue this topic with the macaw. After all, he had already forgiven it. What else could it do?
He waved his hand and quickly changed the topic, not giving the macaw and silver hand any time to react. “Just like just now, when we entered the ghostmelt Galaxy, we were attacked by the interstellar Raiders. In the end, the interstellar Raiders were eyeing the mechanical fortress and turned around to attack us. Fortunately, I summoned the Black Throne at the first moment and shot through the power sails of the aliens. We captured all the enemies, otherwise our interstellar journey would have ended as soon as it started.”
this time, the macaw and silver hand were even more stunned.
What?
So many things had happened while they were hiding in the cargo container.
With Lin Ke’s level of literature, other than exaggeration, there were no other adjectives to describe it. Even so, it was touching to listen to. one could imagine the real scene at that time, how shocking and magnificent it would be.
...
And they had completely missed it.
Immediately, the macaw and the Silver Hand felt as if they had lost a billion dollars.
alright, your resting rooms are ready. Go wash up and get some rest. link couldn’t help but take a deep breath. He shivered. The smell of the cargo container was really too much!
Link turned and left, leaving behind only the regretful and sighing macaw and silver hand in the warehouse.
After a long time, the two of them suddenly froze.
“Wait, something’s not right!” The macaw looked at the Silver Hand.
“aren’t we accusing link? Why did it suddenly become us who are sorry to him?”
Silver hand blinked his eyes, unable to react for a moment.
After a long while, the Silver Hand patted the macaw’s fat shoulder. “Alright, let’s not worry about this! Didn’t you hear what link just said? all the Space Pirates have been captured. Aren’t you curious about what the alien looks like?”
Hearing silver hand’s words, the macaw instantly became spirited and slapped its thigh. “Right! The aliens are the most important! Let’s go, hurry back to wash up and join in the fun!”
Link heard their conversation from the corridor and shook his head. He muttered to himself, ” they’re really a pair of crouching dragon and phoenix chicks. they’ve been deceived so easily. what are they going to do when they face the complicated universe environment in the future? ”
...
After successfully ” releasing ” the Silver Hand and the macaw, the mechanical fortress once again welcomed vitality.
Link chose to release the two clowns at this time for his own purpose. He wanted to mislead bartings and make him think too much.
one had to know that imagination was a fatal thing. once a person firmly believed that you were an expert, then no matter how stupid the person’s actions in the future were, they would be understood as having a deep meaning.
batins had already witnessed the power of the black throne and the horror of the spaceship’s system being hacked by masako and troy in an instant. he had already subconsciously thought that link was the leader of an advanced civilization in disguise. As for the appearance of such an advanced civilization in a remote star system, there must be an unspeakable secret.
now that the first round of information gaps and “misunderstandings” had been formed, all link had to do was to strengthen them.
The macaw and the Silver Hand were the perfect candidates for this mission.
Helen was moving the loot with the players, penny was checking the inventory with the Lin group, and link had ” asked the Crouching dragon and phoenix to leave the mountain.
Link hesitated for a moment, then decided to take a look at the misty villa and the pet Paradise.
Thus, Miranda was ” sent ” to the misty villa, where grace would personally take care of her.
He didn’t know if Miranda had been frightened by the appearance of the Black Throne in the battle with the aliens.
link arrived at the misty mountain villa’s exclusive area. the entire place was shrouded in gray fog. However, when it sensed Link’s arrival, the gray fog gradually parted to reveal a path.
Just as link stepped into the misty villa, he met grace, who had a look of resentment in her eyes. The wild look and the pair of resentful eyes were lethal. If the onlookers who didn’t know the truth saw this, they would think that it was an emotional drama where a scumbag abandoned his wife and daughter.
you asked me to study Safron’s alchemy every day, but you secretly modified the entire mechanical fortress.
Gretel called him an old hag the moment she opened her mouth, leaving link speechless. He didn’t know how to explain, so he said, ” well, this is an idea and inspiration that I had by chance some time ago. I didn’t expect to succeed on the first try. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence? ”
Grace clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She glared at link and said, Miranda just took an afternoon nap. Come back in the afternoon!
Link shrugged helplessly. He didn’t think that Miranda would be so carefree to fall asleep in such a situation.
However, link was relieved to know that Miranda was fine.
“What, you’re still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to come to you with Saffron’s alchemy blueprint?”
Hearing this, link immediately ran away. If she really brought the alchemy blueprint to ask for advice, link really didn’t know how to deal with it.
After leaving the misty villa, link went to the pet Paradise.
The pet Paradise was what link jokingly called it.
This was where Link’s pets lived. As it was an independent area, there was no need to worry about being disturbed by the Expeditionary Force or players.
From the giant tentacles Dragon to the small silver army ants, they all lived in this area.
This place had everything from snow mountains, deserts, low lands, swamps, rainforests, deserts, and even the ocean. It was simply a small ecosystem.
Link had spent a lot of time and effort building this place in order to simulate as many natural environments as possible so that his various pets could rely on it. After all, they had all left the wasteland with him.
