Chapter 13: Do you want to learn Taixu Sword Qi?
Jiang Lianqiu still remembers that when he left fifteen years ago, the last starport of the mecha servants was in a completely dilapidated state.
However, over the years, Belfast has been quietly and remotely controlling the starport's self-repair work on Earth.
From barely repairing a batch of usable resource mining ships to collect the usable resources in the galaxy bit by bit, to gradually restoring some industrial production capacity, the entire star port has now been completely renewed.
The mottled marks on its original external armor have disappeared, replaced by bright silver-gray armor that reflects dazzling light under the brilliance of the stars in the galaxy. At the busy starport dock, countless engineering ships are busy taking off and landing, and the massive amount of materials that are continuously transported are delivered to the production line every moment, rebuilding the lost industrial capacity of the mecha servants bit by bit.
Fortunately, although most of the archives in the starport were lost, some technical information was still preserved.
This is also due to the peculiarity of the out-of-control servitor civilization - they are accustomed to preserving as complete technical information as possible in the central database of each colony in a discrete manner.
However, rebuilding a complete industrial system is not an easy task. Even after fifteen years, the current starport has only restored its infrastructure capabilities and has built a small escort fleet.
The people on Earth would never have imagined that 458 light-years away, in a place they call Zeta Ophiuchus, there existed a space port that was far beyond human imagination.
The owner of the starport has lived on Earth for fifteen years.
When the completely sealed hatch slowly slid upwards and opened with the sound of pressure relief, Jiang Lianqiu, who was lying in the semi-tilted inspection cabin, opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Belfast who was staring at the light screen in front of him.
"How about it?"
"I'm sorry, Master." Belfast turned around, his face full of remorse. "I couldn't detect any abnormalities in your body."
"Then maybe I'm fine at all?" Jiang Lianqiu joked as he walked out of the testing cabin.
Belfast kept a serious face for the first time and said to Jiang Lianqiu solemnly, "Please don't joke like that, Master. No matter how you look at it, someone invading your mind is not something you can take lightly."
"Calling it an invasion is too much!"
Su Shang's voice rang in Jiang Lianqiu's mind.
The girl followed Jiang Lianqiu's gaze and experienced everything from beginning to end.
Su Chang did not show any surprise at the star port left behind by the out-of-control mecha-servant in front of her - the Xianzhou Alliance itself was an advanced civilization in the star sea with extremely advanced technology, and Su Chang did not need to lose her composure because of a star port.
However, what surprised the girl was that such a huge star port, which was comparable to a giant celestial body and filled with a large number of Golden Iron Guards (autonomous mechanical servants), actually belonged to Jiang Lianqiu alone.
In the little girl's mind, Jiang Lianqiu has transformed from a "strange barbarian who can communicate with her five senses" into a "powerful nobleman in the starry sea."
"However, based on your actual situation, the central AI has deduced a scientific training method that may help you alleviate the conflict between your five senses and the invader."
"I told you not to call me an intruder! This maid is going too far!"
"Alright, alright, Beifa, stop talking about Su Shang like that. She's been complaining in my head."
Jiang Lianqiu smiled and comforted him.
"How do you do it? Let me see."
Belfast pursed her lips and moved her fingertips in front of her. The light screen floating in front of her flew in front of Jiang Lianqiu like a real object.
Thanks to the brain development he had received in Star Harbor in the past, Jiang Lianqiu quickly scanned the solution given by Star Harbor's AI at a glance.
"This is similar to the training method you gave me to develop my own brain area."
"This is the result of further improvement on this basis." Belfast nodded and explained the reason.
"Brain development? What is that?"
Su Shang asked.
Jiang Lianqiu replied casually: "It's a good thing that can make people smarter."
Belfast was stunned for a moment before he realized that his master was probably communicating with Miss Su Shang from another world.
On the other hand, when Su Shang heard the words "become smarter", her DNA felt itchy.
Jiang Lianqiu felt itchy all over...
"Really?! Really?! Can it really make people smarter?!"
The girl excitedly waved her heavy sword around in the yard.
"Can I learn it too?"
Jiang Lianqiu relayed Su Chang's request to Belfast. The maid pondered for a moment and suggested, "That's a good suggestion indeed. If that young lady can also accept synchronous training, Master, you and her can work together and perhaps achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"Great... Well... in return, I can teach you my family's unique skills!"
Jiang Lianqiu's heart moved.
Isn’t Su Shang’s family’s unique martial art the Taixu Sword Qi?
"Your family's unique skills? Is it okay to teach me?"
Su Shang scratched the back of her head:
"Anyway, now that I'm in this state, you can see and hear me practicing swordplay, right? Even if I don't teach you, you can still learn if you want. Speaking of which, it's not just the Taixu Sword Qi, do you want to learn the Yunqi Sword Scripture? Let me make it clear, you absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot say I taught you! Otherwise, I'll be scolded to death!"
Jiang Lianqiu: “…”
Should we say this little girl is smart or stupid?
She was smart because she could actually imagine that in her current state, he would see the entire process of her sword practice.
The reason why he was stupid was that - if one day in the future he used Taixu Sword Qi in front of people who knew Su Shang, wouldn't everything be exposed?
In any case, since the other party is willing to teach, Jiang Lianqiu naturally has no reason not to learn.
"Befa, help me forge a sword. I'll tell you the specifications and style later. Also, open a martial arts training ground in the basement of the villa."
Although Belfast did not hear the conversation between Jiang Lianqiu and Su Shang, he could roughly guess what happened.
"No problem, Master."
"By the way, Master, now that the Starport's industrial capacity has been initially restored, do we need to arrange for a group of combat servitors to remain on Earth on standby?"
Although he did not think that there would be a need for "fighting" on Earth, Jiang Lianqiu still did not refuse.
"Just make your own arrangements."
Chapter 14: Yellow Robe Sacrifice
"Then, next is the other thing you mentioned, Befa."
After temporarily dealing with the issue of sharing the five senses on Su Chang's side, Jiang Lianqiu became concerned about another matter.
He left the slightly narrow room and led Belfast along the alloy corridor, and soon they arrived at another place that looked like an information center.
A huge three-dimensional star map was projected in the center of the room, and the core of the star map was the solar system.
With the solar system as the center, the projection shows a detailed star map within a radius of one thousand light years.
A faint blue halo shone on Belfast's delicate face. The maid spoke solemnly, "...According to the data previously uploaded by the central monitoring hub, the supercomputing matrix, after 125874 repeated analyses, concluded that within one thousandth of a second after the wave function collapse caused by the abnormal mental fluctuations originating from you, Master, it scanned the entire Earth-Moon system for passive signals, using a Planck time as a unit. This is also related to you, Master."
At first, Jiang Lianqiu thought that Belfast coming to find him simply referred to the fact that he and Su Shang had a connection between their five senses.
But Belfast told him that according to the analysis results of time correction after eliminating the influence of relativity, the next moment after Su Shang and he connected their five senses, a ghost signal swept across the Earth-Moon system at a speed far exceeding the speed of light.
"Could it be a rectification agreement?"
Looking at the star map in front of him, Jiang Lianqiu always felt a chill on his back.
"negative. 』
The inorganic voice of the Central Starport's AI rang out within the information center.
"The ghost signal of the Rectification Protocol has a detailed spectrum recorded in this starport's database. After comparison, the coincidence rate between the two is less than one in a thousand."
Belfast also comforted him, "What's more, if the signal source is truly the Summons Protocol, then the object they are scanning will not be just a small Earth-Moon system."
Jiang Lianqiu thought so too.
The solemn ghost signal can sweep across the entire universe in an instant.
"Is the range limited to the Earth-Moon system?" He frowned and stared at the star map in front of him.
Belfast suddenly suggested, "Master, didn't you say that Miss Su Shang came from another advanced civilization in the galaxy? Could she provide us with some help?"
"Huh? You're counting on that idiot?"
"Huh? You're counting on an idiot like me?"
After a brief silence——
"I can speak for myself! But you can't call me stupid! I'm going to get angry!"
In the yard, Su Shang puffed up her cheeks angrily and kicked a piece of gravel into the pond.
The ripples on the water surface overlapped with the glow of the star map coming from Jiang Lianqiu's side, forming a bizarre picture in front of Su Shang's eyes.
Belfast was stunned for a moment: "...So, that Miss Su Shang is a fool?"
Su Shang: "????"
Trying hard to ignore Su Shang's protests against Belfast in his mind, Jiang Lianqiu ordered, "Send another batch of trans-space probes to closely monitor the Earth-Moon system... No, expand the monitoring range to the entire solar system."
"I will obey your will, my lord."
Belfast lifted the maid's skirt with both hands and bowed with her legs bent.
……Dividing line……
That night.
Just when Jiang Lianqiu was in the star port.
Earth.
Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo.
Although it is located in the port area like Roppongi where Jiang Lianqiu and Eriri live, Minami-Aoyama is not a place exclusively for high-end elites, but an area where high-end and ordinary people coexist.
Kasumigaoka Utaha's home is located here.
When the girl in pajamas sat in front of the computer desk, her ten fingers flew on the keyboard. The moment she typed the last line of text, her sleepy wine-red eyes swept to the lower right corner of the computer desktop, where the words 2:38 were displayed.
"It's already this late..."
Yawning, Kasumigaoka Utaha subconsciously picked up the can of coffee on the table, only to find that it was already empty.
She casually threw the can into the trash can beside her and looked at the results of her hard work for most of the night on the screen with satisfaction.
After a conversation with Jiang Lianqiu in Akihabara during the day, and after the other party's accurate and sharp comments on the content of the first volume of Love Metronome, Kasumigaoka Utaha was inspired like a spring. She sorted out her thoughts after dinner and has been working hard until now.
After yawning and clicking save on the document, Kasumigaoka Utaha got up shakily, left the bedroom, and prepared to wash up and go to bed.
With a creaking sound, the door closed and the girl's bedroom fell into silence.
Then, something unusual...appeared.
The moonlight solidified into pale icicles on the window frames.
The moment Kasumigaoka Utaha closed the door, the second hand of the wall clock suddenly fell vertically, creating spider-web-like cracks on the glass surface.
The cracks spread along non-Euclidean geometric paths, distorting the twelve Roman numerals into strange yellow marks.
The girl's computer screen suddenly went dim, then lit up in an instant.
Although no one is typing on the keyboard, the number of characters displayed in the WORD document is increasing at a rate of hundreds per second.
Dark text crawled across the screen like rotting vines:
Yellow Robe Sacrifice, Part 7
"When the eighty-second tide swallows the ungodly morning star, the pale crown will be crowned in the triple shadow. Remember to keep your ears closed when gazing at the sea of stars, or you will hear the sound of thousands of throats tearing at the ether from behind the veil of the old times—"
The ceramic lucky cat on the desk suddenly cracked its mouth, and its originally round pupils shrank into vertical lines.
Its mechanically swinging right claw changed its trajectory, and it used the tip of its claw to dip into the asphalt-like liquid oozing from its body, and carved a spell on the tabletop that was nested by the Fibonacci spiral and the Riemann function.
The window that was obviously closed suddenly opened by itself. When the wind from outside blew across the bed sheets, the solid-colored quilt cover slowly turned into parchment, revealing various meaningless cuneiform characters.
In this abnormal time and space, fleshy folds grew on the inside of the wardrobe door.
