Chapter 749 The Spy in the Transit Galaxy
Transit galaxy, 0123 Gemini galaxy.
Inside the Star Harbor Command Center.
"What?! Two heavy battleships? Who declared them on the customs declaration?"
The galaxy's commander, Zhao Wuji, suddenly stood up from his seat. His imposing figure, over two meters tall, exuded a powerful sense of oppression, and his golden vertical pupils stared intently at the screen.
"Reporting to the Chief of Staff, the customs declaration information indicates the Qingyu family, Yu Mingyue!"
"The Qingyu Family? The Yu Family, one of the top 100 families on the main star?!"
Zhao Wuji gasped. Any one of their direct subordinates from that level of behemoth held a much higher position than him, the acting chief of a peripheral star system!
"Quickly! Clear out the S01 premium berth! All senior executives must arrive at the port with me 12 hours in advance to welcome them! Raise the protocol to the highest level!"
While Zhao Wuji was in a frantic rush, his mind was racing: "Yu Mingyue... the young lady of the Yu family's main branch! If I serve such an important figure well while she's passing through my area, it would be an incredible opportunity!"
……
three days later.
"drop--!"
"It is about to exit the subspace jump state."
"We have arrived at the transit and supply station ahead, Gemini Galaxy 0123."
The cold, mechanical synthesized voice shattered the silence of the command room.
With a slight spatial tremor, the elongated beam of light outside the porthole instantly receded, and the magnificent twin spectacle, as beautiful as a painting, was once again presented before everyone's eyes.
One gold and one blue, two enormous stars shone brightly in the void.
The blazing golden light and the eerie blue flames collided wildly in the atmosphere of Beta Star, and the aurora borealis, as dazzling as a ribbon, stretched across the sky.
"They're back."
Ye Hongyu sighed softly, her beautiful eyes filled with excitement as she looked at the familiar yet strangely strange sight.
Compared to their hasty visit last time, this time they not only have greatly increased their strength, but also bring with them a terrifying fortune enough to buy an entire galaxy.
"Boom—!!!"
Two massive battlecruisers, their bodies entirely dark gold and weighing tens of millions of tons, descended slowly into the central starport of Beta Star, like two floating steel mountains, exuding an oppressive aura that seemed to suppress everything.
Even in the Gemini system, where tourism is thriving and people are well-traveled, warships of this caliber are extremely rare "giants."
The radar station at Starport immediately sounded a piercing alarm, and all civilian airways were urgently cleared.
……
The warship slowly docked at the starport.
A red carpet was laid out, and cannons fired in unison.
Zhao Wuji led over a hundred tall, high-ranking members of the star system, who stood solemnly on both sides of the gangway, holding their breath.
"laugh--!"
The main hatch slowly opened, and thick psionic steam billowed out like a white dragon.
Under Zhao Wuji's expectant gaze, who had even prepared a speech to praise Miss Yu Mingyue.
A tall and imposing figure stepped forward first.
That's Lin Qiye.
He was dressed in light black and gold armor, his face was cold and deep, and his whole body exuded an aura of being high above the clouds.
Behind Lin Qiye was a group of beautiful women.
Su Yun, Yu Mingyue, Chen Lingxue... these stunning female warriors were all like docile little wives at this moment, trailing behind Lin Qiye by half a step, and following him out with their heads bowed and eyes lowered.
Even Zhao Wuji spotted Yu Mingyue in the holographic photograph he had previously examined.
At this moment, the young lady of the Yu family, whom he had imagined should be the master, was staring at the back of the man in front with fervent adoration, her movements revealing humility and loyalty!
Zhao Wuji was completely stunned, his two-meter-tall body freezing in place.
"Wait a minute... Miss Yu is just one of the attendants? Who's that young man leading the group?"
As a businessman who had been involved in tourism and trade for many years, Zhao Wuji's brain was frantically searching. He stared at Lin Qiye's profile, and an extremely strong sense of "familiarity" instantly surged into his heart.
"I've seen him... I'm absolutely certain I've seen him somewhere! And it was just recently!"
Zhao Wuji was, after all, a seasoned veteran. Although he couldn't quite make sense of it at first, his businessman instincts allowed him to react instantly.
Regardless of who the other party is, for Miss Yu to react this way, their status has already reached the heavens!
The initial surprise on his face was instantly replaced by extreme obsequiousness. Before Lin Qiye even stepped down the last step, he jogged over to him, bowing deeply.
"My lord! Welcome back to the Gemini Galaxy! Your humble servant Zhao Wuji, along with all officials, respectfully welcomes Your Majesty!"
The phrase "I'm here again" was uttered with exquisite skill. It concealed the momentary daze and, before recognizing the other person, forced a familiar connection, making it absolutely flawless.
Lin Qiye glanced at Zhao Wuji and nodded with a half-smile:
"Chief Zhao, we meet again. This entourage is even more extravagant than last time."
"Oh, sir, you flatter me! To be of service to you is a blessing I, Zhao, have accumulated over three lifetimes!"
As Zhao Wuji led the way with a beaming smile, he frantically glanced at the group of Martial God-level family members behind Lin Qiye, his mind racing: 'Two warships... so many top-tier female Martial Gods... who is this guy?'
As he respectfully escorted Lin Qiye onto the hovercar, his gaze inadvertently swept over the three figures at the back of the group.
Those were three old men: Chen Tianyang, Zhou Ming, and Feng Zhentian.
Zhao Wuji's pupils suddenly contracted!
"Chen Tianyang?! That old guy from 0755?!"
In his mind, the scene of that banquet two months ago flashed by like lightning—
The young man who sat between the two adjudicators, Crimson Flame and Ice Prison.
The young man he once tried to sell the "Malaysia My Second Home" program to, and even joked about giving him a 50% discount.
"hiss--!!!"
Zhao Wuji gasped inwardly, his hair standing on end, and cold sweat trickling down his spine.
Two months ago, he was just a newcomer going to the main planet for an assessment... Two months later, he returned in a heavy warship, with the young lady of the Yu family willingly following behind?!
"No, there must be something I don't know... His background is definitely not simple!"
"Perhaps it's the bloodline of some great master who was lost abroad!"
Soon, the Star Harbor berths became exceptionally empty and quiet as the senior management left.
Beside the two dark gold heavy battleships that stood still like steel islands, the previously empty void suddenly showed an extremely subtle distortion.
The distortion was not obvious, like the heat wave on a summer asphalt road, or like some kind of transparent outline moving rapidly, silently approaching the exposed supply port of the warship.
However, just as that transparent outline was about to touch the warship's defensive force field...
"Sizzle—!"
A thin, yet perfectly condensed, dark purple laser beam erupted without warning from the secondary gun turret atop the battleship.
The laser struck the seemingly empty void with pinpoint accuracy.
"Bang!"
With a muffled electronic explosion, the originally transparent outline trembled violently in mid-air, followed by a burst of fire. The outer layer of mimicry armor collapsed instantly, revealing its original technologically advanced silver-black body. It spun and fell from mid-air, crashing heavily onto the flat metal deck and turning into a pile of scrap metal.
This unexpected turn of events startled the Star Harbor security personnel remaining at the berth, who were immediately taken aback.
"Enemy attack?! Quick, surround that area!"
"It's not an enemy attack, it's a hidden listening device! Report this to the Commander-in-Chief immediately!"
A group of security personnel dressed in elite armor rushed forward and cordoned off the wreckage of the drone.
Upon seeing the wreckage, the supervisor present broke out in a cold sweat: "This is... the latest model of an advanced interstellar stealth reconnaissance aircraft. We simply cannot produce something like this in our star system!"
