From The Start, I Traded A Galactic Warship - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 They Look Delicious

Countless people had already regretted not learning the East Kingdom language, but who could have imagined that the aliens would actually be communicating with them in the East Kingdom language?

Even a movie would not dare to act it this way!

After Todd had spoken, there was no response for a long time. Even Willard could not help but hold his breath.

Under such circumstances, the other party’s slightest reaction could only make them think more!

This was also the first time Willard felt the diplomacy of a weak country.

In contrast, Todd seemed much calmer. He still maintained his bow.

After a while, a slow voice came from ahead.

“Let’s talk about this when we see the captain. I’m not qualified to accept your welcome on behalf of the Vogt.” Although it was a calm tone, Todd and Willard could sense his nonchalant attitude from the tone.

Was the person in front of them just the crew of this spaceship called the Vogt?

Since the other party had mentioned the “captain”, it meant that there was a clear hierarchy and a ruler on this spaceship!

Todd and Willard looked at each other.

They were not sure if this was good news for the Blue Planet or bad news for humans.

Because compared with dealing with a group, interacting with individuals undoubtedly had more uncertainty. To put it bluntly, if the other party’s technological strength was really terrifying to a certain extent, then even a captain would have a status that was not inferior to an emperor on the Blue Planet!

He could all affect billions of people according to his preferences!

Todd and Willard became even more cautious.

Their bodies had already been inexplicably pulled toward the other party slowly. Behind the other party, there was also a huge pale-white light screen.

This “alien messenger”, who was obviously different from humans, seemed to be a little quiet. It stood in front of everyone with its back facing them. It had no intention of speaking again. This disappointed Todd and Willard, but they dared not say anything until they passed the light screen.

In front of them was a not-so-narrow passageway.

It was almost as wide as a three-lane road with translucent doors on both sides. Behind the doors was obviously a room. Todd took a closer “glance” and his chest tightened.

This was because behind those “doors”, there were actually many living beings!

Most importantly, although it was just a glance, he could clearly see that the shape and appearance of those living beings were not the same as the alien in front of him!

Was there more than one alien race on this ship?

Or was there more than one alien civilization?

Todd had already started to feel a sense of trepidation, and so did Willard. This was because they could understand what this meant!

This meant that in the vast universe, which humans still did not know about, there might be a huge interstellar society that included countless races and civilizations!

And now, humans were stepping into this society in an incomparably weak posture.

If this was really the case…

Then, they could only pray that in this interstellar society, there was an order with peace as the foundation. Otherwise, to the weak humans, it would be hell!

This was because even if one civilization had good intentions toward humans, it was impossible for all civilizations to be the same. As long as one civilization had ill intentions toward humans and took action, it would be a great calamity for humans!

“Are these the natives of this planet?”

A voice suddenly interrupted Todd and Willard’s thoughts. Everyone looked ahead in unison.

It was an alien creature standing in front of a certain “door”.

It was completely different from what he had seen earlier. Its lower body had eight tentacle-like limbs. Its upper body did not have hands, only a long, protruding head. There were no eyes on it, only a round, squirming mouth. He could clearly see rows of sharp and hideous teeth inside.

It had the ugly and hideous alien look in the movies!

“Tsk, tsk.” The ferocious-looking alien let out a low and sinister voice. “They look very delicious.”

A long tongue stretched out from the mouthpiece with green mucus and swung gently. Some of the timid people among the human team trembled violently.

Even Todd and Willard froze.

Although they could not see where the alien’s eyes were, they seemed to be able to sense a moist and greedy gaze sweeping over them.

It was as if the worst had already happened!

However, just as their mood was sinking into the abyss, the guide with white skin in front of them said in a low voice, “Priestley, don’t tease them.”

“What does it matter, Harvey?”

The feeling of being stared at receded like a tide. The alien creature named Priestley wiggled a few tentacles and laughed.

“Look at their reaction. They’re so cute. How long has it been since we saw such pure natives? I bet they definitely believed us just now.”

Those who did not understand the East Kingdom language still tried their best to maintain a smile, but their posture was stiff.

Even though they did not understand, they could sense the mockery in its tone.

Those who could understand could only remain completely silent. Even Willard, who was essentially arrogant, could only clench his fists slightly at this moment, but he still had to squeeze out a smile.

As they heaved a sigh of relief, they also came to a realization.

Aliens… They seemed to be different from what humans had imagined. Their words and actions seemed very similar to humans.

However, it was precisely because of this that they were even more dangerous!

It could only be said that humans understood themselves the most!

“Priestley!” The guide called Harvey lowered his voice, but said in a cold tone, “Do you need me to remind you who the ‘native’ you last saw was?”

The words seemed to have suddenly got caught in Priestley’s throat.

Todd and the others could even clearly see the tentacles, which had been flying continuously, tremble violently.

Then, as if they had lost all their strength, they fell to the ground.

“Um… I haven’t finished my work.”

The alien creature, which had been mocking Todd and the others earlier, could not even say a word now. It scurried back into the door behind it.

“Don’t worry about him.” Only then did Harvey turn around and look at Todd and the others with his eyes that were also as white as white jade. He said, “The Vals have always been brutal and they have ill intentions toward all living creatures except themselves. They are not targeting you. Moreover, on this spaceship, he can only joke.”
