When the Galaxy Wept

Chapter 131 The Machinery Planet

When Emerald touched the crystal pillar, she felt a great power inside the crystal pillar, which was struggling to blaze out---and she saw inside the initially clear pillar. Some extremely distinct images surfaced in a flash! The images were quiet but vivid! She saw a green planet, in tranquility and silence, and two space fortresses that had never appeared before, floating quietly outside the planet. Suddenly! Fires streaked across heaven like meteors and accurately attacked the two space fortresses! Then she saw thousands of fighters pour in from the other side--- Blood-hawks! The familiar sharp shape was the Blood-hawk they had seen on the Machinery Planet! But they looked newer and faster, with greater power! In the next image, crowds of fighters rushed from the green planet’s aerospace, and the Blood hawks’ amount was far more than the fighters. In seconds, Emerald saw fires breaking out on the planet like fireworks! Then a silver space fortress that looked brand new in its appearance gradually came into the image. Emerald recalled four words---Arrival of the Machinery! Were these images the reflections that the Machinery attacking a planet? But how did they strangely appear on the crystal pillars on this planet? The subsequent images were in chaos and swiftly changing, so Emerald changed another pillar, but the images were even more astonishing--- The Machinery Planet! She saw the mercenary’s space fortresses escape from the aerospace and nuclear bombs destroyed the Earth-like planet like wild winds--- So, what these crystal pillars recorded was real? Then where was the green planet? She changed another two pillars and what she saw was always the Robots’ Blood-hawks conquering some species and planets. There was even the Orc. They were three planets governed by the Orc. As far as she knew, the Orc was never in such great power--- so was it a true event in history? Once in someplace and some era, the Beast was as powerful as to conquer three main planets. **** However, when her hand touched the central crystal pillar, she was astonished---- She saw one star and nine planets in different colors! The third planet was blue and brown! She saw the Blood-hawks fall on the planet without any restriction, while there was no space fighter fighting back from the ground at all. Then long silence fell on. Perhaps it was the fastest Machinery Arrival and weakest ground resistance she had seen. She was quite silent, and tears wet her eyes. She couldn’t even say a word.And the warm and strong arms held her suddenly. Patrick asked in a low voice, “What did you see?” She held Patrick’s hand and put it on the pillar. Patrick looked at the crystal pillar seriously. “The Earth?” He asked. “Yeah.” She was certain by 100 percent. There was no Saul Silas who created another earth. He held her hand, but his eyes still stared at that pillar coldly, “the robot man?” “Commander, this one seemed to be....” One mercenary was obviously in great surprise, “Eternity Galaxy!” The others all rushed there. And when they reached out their hands, they saw the image of fierce fires attacking the five familiar planets. Then they saw the robots’ Blood-hawks swiftly flooded to the planet like locusts! And on the ground, fighters also took off swiftly! The two sides fought ferociously for a moment! They never saw the fighters on the ground. They were not Cheetahs nor Snowbergs. They were gold in appearance but looked far stronger and more powerful. And their ammunition was also far more powerful! The fighters’ bodies were painted with cross-lightening logos, different from both that of the Alliance and the mercenary. But the images on the pillar were in a flash. In such an instance, they wanted to catch more clues but failed. “It might be the Eternity Galaxy in some part of history.” Harrison sighed and explained, “Perhaps before us, the humans in the Eternity Galaxy had fought back the Machinery.” The others all looked at each other. But why were the images recorded here? Why were all the images related to the Machinery? Why was there no record in history if the Machinery did appear in the Eternity Galaxy?Emerald and Patrick were both in silence after leaving the strange crystal cave. Harrison asked the technical analyzer to report to Patrick when they returned to the basement. The analyzer speculated that there might be some special item in the strange crystal. And when the universe light passed through, some refraction happened. And some images were recorded and replayed in the crystal pillars again and again. That was why they could see the images that happened long ago. But Emerald couldn’t persuade herself. Emerald and Patrick lived in one spaceship at night. They saw the expanse of crystal pillars through the glass window, which reflected brilliant lights under the stars and made the whole planet enveloped in vagueness. Emerald was deep in her mind. Did the Machinery destroy the earth? When did that happen? Why did she appear in Eternity Galaxy? And why did Patrick survive?“Patrick, I’ve been thinking of the earth’s image...” Her voice was low. Patrick did not respond. She turned around but saw he held his forehead and seemed to have a rest. Perhaps their strange origins also made him troubled. She pressed a kiss on his cheek. And instantly, he noticed and held her into his arms. “Don’t worry.” His voice was hoarse, “I’ll figure it out.” Upon seeing Emerald’s confused expression, Patrick changed the topic quietly, “Why didn’t you ask me directly when Harrison brought you to see the machinery princess deliberately?” As expected, Emerald was attracted by his question, and she asked, “Who was I to ask you?” “You were already my woman at that time.” He stared at her, “Were you sad?” “Yes.” She nodded her head, “You may put yourself in my shoes; if you see another man touching me, how would you feel?” The assumption successfully made Patrick feel her sadness. His eyes were dark, “it seems Harrison deserves more severe punishment.” She laughed. At this time, the communicator rang. “Where are you?” They did not anticipate it was Henry who seemed happy. “What happened?” Henry knew they were unwilling to be bothered and thus said seriously, “The sample is ready for what you ordered, and when will you come to see it?” Patrick looked at Emerald and said, “Tomorrow.” After turning off the communicator, Patrick said, “I have a gift for you, in Henry’s.”
