Lu Mingming, frozen in a laboratory due to a genetic disease, awakens in the interstellar era as a pure-blooded human detested by all.
Fortunately, she finds a "little kitten" and sec...
Once the group finished their self-cultivation, a hidden flying silver vessel quietly moved into the territory of Blue Star.
As soon as the aircraft landed, Lu Mingming looked into the distance through the transparent glass—the behemoth in front of him was comparable to the city that never sleeps, and even showed signs of surpassing it.
Lu Mingming asked in disbelief, "Is this Earth?"
She looked at the bald man.
"Yeah, you can't recognize me, can you?"
The bald man's eyes were filled with pride.
"Blue Star is now a veritable tourism superstar. Last quarter, it generated nearly 10 billion in revenue. Almost every well-known tycoon and political figure chooses to hold an exclusive banquet here to showcase their prestige and power. Other tourists also come to visit and take photos, further enhancing Blue Star's reputation."
The only drawback is the quota system you mentioned earlier—which has resulted in many interstellar people still not having participated in a trip to Earth, causing ticket prices to skyrocket to millions per ticket, and making them extremely scarce.
"That's insane."
Lu Mingming was speechless upon hearing this.
"Don't underestimate the imagination back then! This is an absolutely stunning building that has never been seen before in the interstellar world."
The bald man led a group of people off the spaceship.
To avoid drawing attention today, they deliberately wore low-key dark clothes and different levels of face coverings, such as glasses or masks, to minimize their presence, since several of them are quite famous figures in interstellar space.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped off the spaceship, they found themselves surrounded by tourists dressed in custom-made costumes and rented robes, making Lu Mingming and his group seem even more out of place.
A long queue formed at the city gate, with people ranging from 80-year-old seniors to 3-year-old children, all looking forward to this special trip.
Special seats are set up along the queue, allowing each visitor to receive precise massage. There is also an automatic beverage machine on one side. All prices are included in the ticket price.
In this aspect, their service is the epitome of thoughtfulness.
"We don't seem to have any tickets, how do we get in?"
Orannal asked.
This is a difficult problem, as the original rule stated that tickets and identity verification were required to enter the interior of Earth for tourism.
The group looked at each other in bewilderment. Lu Mingming said, "I'll go and try talking to the person in front. Maybe he remembers my face."
Most of the time, she was in charge of supervising the workers and constructing basic buildings, and most Blue Star people knew Lu Mingming to some extent.
Thinking this, Lu Mingming ran up to the ticket checker and asked, "Excuse me, I'd like to ask if we can go in and take a look since we are old friends with the chieftain of Blue Star?"
The ticket inspector, without glancing to the side, continued checking the tickets in his hand and said calmly, "You are the 3516th tourist to say this this month. I'm sorry, but apart from those with tickets, we will not accept any excuses from others. If you cause trouble, you will be blacklisted from all sides by Blue Star."
Lu Mingming was both amused and exasperated.
With a long queue behind her, she couldn't afford to delay any longer. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck her, and she took out a necklace from her personal storage space—the one Aunt Shi had given to Lu Mingming.
"Could you help me deliver this necklace to the chieftain of Blue Star, or to a powerful figure surnamed Shi? It's a token."
The ticket inspector looked up and said, "864 people have used this reason, and 843 of them were lying."
Lu Mingming was truly at a loss. The bald man stood to the side and shouted, "If all else fails, we'll just break in. The chief won't blame us anyway."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ticket inspector waved his hand, and the surrounding security guards all gathered around, seemingly about to drive away this group of troublemakers.
"If you don't want your tickets checked, you can leave now."
"The security measures are really well done."
The bald man muttered to himself.
Lu Mingming pleaded again, "Please accept this bracelet first."
Taking this opportunity, she leaned closer and whispered something under the other person's wary gaze.
"Tell them an old friend has come, someone who helped establish Earth back then..."
Lu Mingming named several familiar faces in succession.
"Please ask for my regards on their health."
The ticket inspector's expression finally changed slightly after hearing the last few words.
Aunt Shi and the Chief are big shots who have been featured on the Interstellar Alliance's quantum computer news, while the few people Lu Mingming mentioned are never exposed to the public, especially a certain little cub.
To ensure his safety, the people of Earth strictly prohibit him from appearing in the public eye too often.
He accepted the bracelet with some skepticism, his eyes scanning Lu Mingming up and down with suspicion: "You'd better not try anything funny."
After saying this, the ticket inspector turned and left, leaving Lu Mingming behind to wait.
Is there any resolution to this matter?
Lu Yan asked.
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
As Lu Mingming had expected, within ten minutes, the gates of Blue Star City suddenly opened wide, and a special vehicle drove in from afar.
A mechanical horse draped in velvet ran on the bluestone road, with a wooden sedan chair behind it, and an exquisitely embroidered curtain fluttering around it.
Upon seeing this, the tourists outside exclaimed, "This is the most famous carriage on Blue Star. I heard that it costs 20,000 Star Coins to ride around Blue Star for two hours."
"Such cool craftsmanship for only 20,000 star coins, what a steal!"
"But why did this vehicle head straight out of the city?"
"Did that plan succeed?"
Lu Mingming murmured.
The carriage parade plan was something she specifically instructed the chief and Aunt Shi about before she left.
She followed the tourists' gaze expectantly. Although the horses of the carriage were mechanical, they ran smoothly and quickly pulled the carriage to the ticket gate.
