Chapter 1 Ten thousand years is too long
a thousand years!
No wonder hard alloys, which are claimed to be immortal for thousands of years, have become what they are in front of us, and the power supply of the Empire's latest "permanent motion machine" that collects the planet's gravity is also facing exhaustion. With the wear of time, nothing is eternal.
If it weren't for unknown reasons, his personal cabin was much less decay than other equipment, perhaps he would never have the chance to wake up and would have long since turned into a pile of pus in the metal grave.
He calmed down and asked, "Confirm the current position."
"The current world data does not match the known system data, so it is impossible to determine...please...replenish...energy..." The system's sound became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely. The last little energy of the main energy machine could not withstand the consumption of a large amount of system activities, and finally exhausted at this moment, and his only piece of intact equipment disappeared.
He frowned slightly, thinking about his last sentence.
The current world data does not match the system data? What does this mean? Does it mean that he ran out of the star domain controlled by the empire, or is he in an unmanned exploration area that is not marked on the world star map?
It is urgent to determine where you are.
He inspected the cockpit and equipment box again, because he had been through too long and could not find anything useful. Even the super alloy that made the dragon teeth and light night barrels had completely turned into a pile of mud.
The only perfect thing is his uniform, this artificial fabric called "streaming light", which escaped the crushing of time with his body under the protection of the personal cabin.
He gave up his efforts to find equipment and began to move his body carefully until he made sure that every joint could work properly before he walked towards the glimmer of light in the distance.
He had just woken up from his ten thousand years of sleep and his body was in a state of extreme weakness. At this time, even a rebel soldier with only the initial construction and transformation could kill him.
If the person who came was a veteran who had undergone the first-level transformation or even a commander who had the second-level transformation, he might not even have a chance to escape.
He slowly approached the glimmer, and a passage with a very steep slope appeared in front of him, tilting upward, and a little skylight was shining at the entrance of the cave. He tried to grab the vines on the passage wall and climbed upwards. He felt that the vines were strong enough to withstand their own weight before he was ready to continue to move upwards.
At this moment, a silver light suddenly flashed from the corner of his eyes. He turned his head and saw a shield-shaped silver badge embedded on his uniform's arm, which was constructed with special runes.
This is the military emblem of the Dragon Cavalry Team. They are not just simple marks. Each badge is sealed with an energy shield, which is the last barrier to life at critical moments.
As the captain of the Dragon Knight, his badge is even more special, made of quantum heavy silver, and the energy contained in it is enough to resist the direct bombardment of the warship's secondary gun.
At this moment, the color of the badge has changed from black and gray to silver. Obviously, after ten thousand years of washing, the energy stored in it has long dissipated. However, this badge is special to him, and every evolution is a testimony to his military achievements.
He thought about it, tore off the Dragon Knight badge, put it away closely. Then he took off all the marks that could identify the identity of the empire on his body, buried it in the gap in the cave wall, and then crawled towards the entrance of the passage.
Ten thousand years have passed, and in human history, no empire can last for ten thousand years.
As humans officially emerged from their parent star and embarked on the era of great pioneering exploration and development, the first galaxy federation, which existed in the form of a loose alliance, fell apart after only two thousand years.
Then, in order to deal with the great enemy in the depths of the starry sky and the human race's own separatist wave, the Second Galaxy Federation was officially established. This time it lasted for less than a thousand years and the empire was established on the ruins of the Second Galaxy Federation.
Ten thousand years is too long, and the empire may have been obliterated in the dust of history.
In any case, the current identity of the empire most of the time brought him not convenience, but danger. Only the dragon knight badge is quite special, and the runes on it are said to be works by the people of the ruins. It was from a long time ago, and few people in the entire star field could understand it.
Making full preparation, he climbed up the passage and came up the entrance of the cave for a long time. He used all his last bit of strength to finally climb out of the entrance of the cave, then collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
The body that has been dormant for tens of thousands of years is really too weak.
Before he could recover a little, a girl suddenly appeared in her vision. Her clothes were strange and primitive, her face was full of anxiety, and she was shouting at him, waving her hand desperately, but he couldn't hear a word clearly what she said.
Until then, he suddenly felt a ray of chill penetrate deep into his bone marrow, and his hair was standing tightly on his body. This was his natural intuition about danger, but he became much slower due to dormancy.
Almost immediately, he rose up and touched his waist casually, and wanted to draw his sword and slash it back. But after he touched it for a while, he remembered that the dragon teeth that had been with him for many years had turned into mud.
Even without weapons, he would not panic. He exerted force under his feet and dodged to the side. But the moment he stepped on the ground, his legs suddenly became weak and he couldn't use any strength. Then he felt that his back was hit by a meteorite. With a sound of a sudden, he flew up.
The moment he flew into the air, he saw clearly where he was.
This is a jungle, but the grass and trees are particularly tall, with huge trees exceeding ten meters in diameter. There seem to be larger ancient trees in the distance, with the canopy covering the sky and the sun. The ground is covered with long grass, and the grass leaves are higher than the heads, and it is difficult to tell whether it is grass or tree.
The hole he crawled out was just below. In this extremely tall environment, it was like an ant hole, inconspicuous.
As he fell to the ground, the earth suddenly began to shake. With the roar, the ground collapsed layer by layer, and a bottomless pit appeared in an instant.
At this moment, the girl's face suddenly appeared in front of him, and then his whole body seemed to be led and flew away horizontally.
His eyes turned dark and he lost consciousness immediately.
...
"Has he woke up?"
"It seems not yet."
"Follow him, there are many strange things recently. He might be someone sent by the Stinger."
"Impossible, I haven't seen him in the Stinger Tribe."
"Who knows if the Sprig Tribe has recruited new hunters? In short, keep an eye on him!"
A series of conversations came to the ears and were remembered until his consciousness slowly recovered and was recalled again.
Huang Quan opened his eyes slightly, observed the surroundings through a gap, and used special skills to move his body.
This is a secret method passed down by the imperial family. It can activate the body's functions through subtle vibrations without causing changes in the body's surface, thereby restoring a certain ability to move.
When this "first-line" secret technique was first created, it was to allow people in the imperial family to recover some of their movements in any absolutely unfavorable situation, thereby resisting or ending their lives.
He tried his best to control the operation of the secret technique and activate the body bit by bit. He did not feel any secret technique that binds power on his body, which is a good thing.
The bad thing is that after a long period of dormancy, his body is already in an extremely weak state. If he returns to the empire, he may not even be able to defeat any small soldier in the Imperial Guard.
He lay in a very simple house, and he didn't even know if it could be called a house, which was a few naturally curved branches framed, then tied together with rattan strips, and finally laying huge grass leaves as a roof.
By the standards of the empire, such things are not even considered shacks.
However, he has been fighting for many years and has traveled through various star fields. He has seen and experienced all kinds of harsh environments. This place is far from the worst.
At this time, the sound of tiny footsteps sounded outside the door and headed straight for this side. He immediately slowed down his breath, closed his eyes, and pretended to be unconscious.
