Get to the Point

A new work from the author of 'My Senior Brother is Too Steady', welcome to enjoy it! 
------------------
In the instant the Earth exploded, the fear of death finally transformed into physical torment, the agony of being scorched seared into the deepest recesses of Yang Ming's memory.
"The universe is the abyss."
Yang Ming murmured softly among the stars.
[PS: Not a game narrative; early game settings will have a complete logical explanation later in the plot. Starting anew on a different track, this isn't in the style of previous works so don't promote it in the old way, treat me as a newcomer. Just entering the domain of interstellar sci-fi, corrections on details are welcome. ]

Abyss Solo

'But these have nothing to do with me.'  


Yang Ming reminded himself in secret.  


Yang Ming roughly estimated the time, resisting the urge to check his watch, meticulously performing the duty of guarding the palace gate while pondering the lines he needed to use next.  


'Your Majesty, are you injured? I am Yang Ming from the Fourth Squad of the Fourth Corps!'  


Uh, is it too simplistic to say it like that?  


No need, just the first half of the sentence is sufficient, adding a bit more concern and a few more inquiries in the tone would suffice.  


An emperor of a nation, even if a good-for-nothing decades ago, would have become an old fox by now, surely able to discern people's intentions.  


Yes, I mustn't overdo it; leaving a decent first impression on the emperor is enough. The rest should be realized through the Second Prince.
