The process of opening the pool and making cards was naturally very smooth.
Unlike the abandoned card pool, according to the mayor's secretary, this card pool named "Lingyuan" is just in a banned state. There are several crystal sand pools inside the card pool, some of which are blank and have never been activated. As long as you select these unactivated crystal sand pools and make snack cards in the corresponding card making room, the card pool can be restored to operation.
Of course, the card pool can currently produce as many snack cards as the number of snack cards produced in the card making room.
Ke Jin is not a professional card maker, but he has been learning relevant knowledge by himself. He had practiced it once when he solved Su Yufeng's problem before. Now it is not difficult for him to reproduce a few cards in his own card pool. Seeing that the end time of the task specified by the system is getting closer and closer, Ke Jin did not dare to delay. He said hello to the mayor and went into the card pool first.
The furnishings and decorations inside the card pool are also very dignified and grand, which matches the temple-like appearance of the card pool courtyard. However, Ke Jin didn't have the heart to visit and appreciate it for the time being. After entering and taking a quick look around, he quickly found the unused crystal sand pool, entered the corresponding card-making room and started making cards.
There is a success rate for card making. Maybe Ke Jin was really lucky today, or maybe the recipe of the snack card he chose was indeed simple. When the card-making crystal pen made the last stroke on the blank card, a stream of light symbolizing the success of the card making suddenly covered the surface of the card. When the light faded, a brand new snack card appeared on the table, and the card was of SSR level.
At the same time, the cheerful voice of the system sounded in Ke Jin's mind.
[Congratulations host, you have completed the main task of "opening a card pool on a new planet that has never been set foot on within two weeks" and successfully unlocked the next level of side tasks~! ]
[Task Reward: A new map gift pack, 1,000 card pool points.]
[New task released: Please upgrade the new card pool to three levels in two months! ]
Outside the card pool, everyone saw a shallow layer of water ripples appearing in the originally dry card pool in the high temple. As if an invisible stream was pouring into it, the water ripples gradually turned into a pool of water and kept rising higher and higher. Although it did not completely fill the card pool in the end, it filled up more than half of the card pool, indicating that the card pool had been officially opened and could accept coin-operated cards.
"It actually succeeded in one try!" The mayor's secretary and Momo were both quite moved.
Mayor Kanler also nodded with satisfaction: "As expected, you are someone favored by the city guardian spirit."

The "unblocking" was smooth and successful, which meant that from today on, this "Spirit Garden" would officially become a card pool that Ke Jin could operate.
There is a small house for Kashi to live in the northeast corner of the courtyard, but it has been unused for many years, so it needs to be cleaned before moving in. The mayor's secretary said that someone would be sent to clean and arrange it in the afternoon, and Ke Jin could move in tomorrow morning, but Ke Jin still needs to stay at Momo's house tonight.
Naturally, Ke Jin had no objection to this and followed all the arrangements. Although he was a little concerned about the new tasks issued by the system, one night was not a big deal. He planned to officially move in the next day and then enter the new card pool to study it carefully.
***
The next day, after Ke Jin and Momo had breakfast, they received a call from the mayor's secretary, informing Ke Jin that the new card pool had been prepared, but the secretary also brought a new piece of news.
"Major General Leng Yan wants to see me?" Ke Jin was a little surprised. "You want me to go to the military base?"
"Yes, that's what he said." The mayor's secretary on the other end of the communicator said, "He didn't say anything extra. Maybe he wanted to ask more about the hijacking incident."
This speculation is reasonable, but Ke Jin had just met Major General Leng Yan and Major Xier in the hospital the day before yesterday. At that time, neither of them showed any intention of interrogating him. Now that he has been discharged from the hospital, why do they suddenly want to find him to find out the situation?
"Major General Leng Yan said that he has sent a car to pick you up. It will arrive in about half an hour. Mr. Ke, you can get ready first." The secretary added.
Why does this look like a prisoner interrogation? Even the escort car is ready!
Ke Jin was a little embarrassed, but he had nothing to hide, so he agreed immediately. Momo was afraid that Ke Jin would not know the way as he had just arrived, so he sent him directly to the city gate. Sure enough, there was a black armored vehicle waiting there. A man in military uniform stood in front of the car door. When he saw Ke Jin and his friends, he nodded in greeting.
"Who is Mr. Ke Jin?" he asked.
"I." Ke Jin said, "Shall we set off now?"
The man nodded: "The destination is a bit far from here. Major General Leng Yan ordered that we must arrive before noon. We have to hurry."
Although she knew the military wouldn't mess around, Momo was still a little worried about Ke Jin being called away so she mustered up the courage to ask, "Can I go with you?"
I thought there would be some negotiation, but unexpectedly the man just looked at Momo and nodded very decisively.
"Okay, let's get in the car together."
***
The military base was not set up on Mobis, but as a logistics position, there was a military base at the other end of Mobis, hundreds of kilometers away from Mobis City. The only exit to the outside world on Mobis, the interstellar air station, was right next to the military base, and it was not until the armored vehicle stopped that Ke Jin realized that the destination of this trip was actually the interstellar air station.
"Aren't you going to meet Major General Leng Yan?" Ke Jin asked in surprise, "He's here?"
The man nodded: "Yes, please follow me."
Ke Jin and Momo looked at each other, both a little confused. They followed each other into the terminal, but did not go to the departure hall, but took the elevator to the top floor. There were many rooms on the top floor. From the doorplates, it seemed that there were conference rooms and lounges. The man walked straight to the door of a lounge, knocked on the door a few times, and the door was immediately opened.
"Ke Jin!"
A familiar and joyful voice came towards him. Ke Jin was startled, then his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Qing Buyu?" He was surprised and happy, "Why are you here!"
And the bigger surprise was yet to come. Looking over the woman's shoulder, Ke Jin found more than one familiar face in the house.
"Duan Zihan, Mr. Egg... Ou, Ounuo?"
If Qing Buyu and the others' presence only surprised and delighted Ke Jin, then Ounuo's presence here made Ke Jin feel particularly unreal - it's not summer vacation yet, right? Did this kid just skip class and come here?
Compared to Ke Jin's surprise, the boy seemed exceptionally calm. He did not stand up excitedly like Qing Buyu and the others, but just sat steadily on the sofa in the lounge and calmly glanced at Ke Jin from head to toe.
Well, it seems that there is no problem, and I can rest assured.
"Don't just stand there, come in." Qing Buyu smiled and took Ke Jin's arm, "Let's talk slowly."
***
After a conversation, Ke Jin finally understood the whole story.
At first, Ke Jin planned to go to Aquarius to open up a new card pool. He greeted Duan Zihan before departure. The other party went to the terminal early that day to pick him up. Unexpectedly, the plane did not arrive on time. After nearly a day, the official issued a notice belatedly saying that the signal between the plane and the ground was accidentally interrupted, but there was no evidence that the plane had encountered a major accident. It was estimated that it was just an unexpected emergency landing. They have been conducting a full search along the route, and asked passengers and relatives to wait for the results, and so on.
Duan Zihan certainly wouldn't believe the official's bullshit rhetoric to appease people. On the one hand, he urgently looked for someone to inquire about the inside information, and on the other hand, he immediately contacted Qing Buyu.
Upon learning that the plane that Ke Jin was on had an accident, Qing Buyu was shocked and very anxious: after more than a year of getting along with each other, Ke Jin was not only her important partner, but also her trustworthy friend, and she absolutely did not want him to encounter any accident.
At this time, Duan Zihan finally got the real inside information: the plane suddenly disappeared on the route, and it was estimated that it had made a space jump across galaxies, and the reason for the jump... was most likely a hijack.
The Qing Buyu and Duan Zihan families were quite powerful, but they were limited to the Aquarius galaxy. They were helpless when they encountered a cross-galaxy hijacking. Just when everyone was worried and didn't know what to do, the Aviation Department unexpectedly sent good news: the missing plane had been found.
The landing location of the plane was deliberately concealed. The official only said that all the people on board were safe, but they could not return for the time being and would have to wait a week to come back.
Qing Buyu and the others waited patiently for a week, and the group of people, escorted by the commissioner of the Ministry of Aviation, did return to Aquarius as promised, but among these people... there was no Ke Jin.
Although the people from the Aviation Department repeatedly assured that the passenger named Ke was definitely not in danger of death and would be back after a while, Qing Buyu and the others did not want to wait any longer. After some twists and turns, Duan Zihan finally found out that the plane was found near the 13th star system. After discussing it, they decided to come over and take a look.
"You only know a vague location, and you dare to come here directly?" Ke Jin didn't know whether to say that they were too righteous or too reckless.
"If it were somewhere else, it would be a bit unreliable to do this, but for the Thirteenth Galaxy..." Qing Buyu paused and smiled, "I just happened to have someone I could turn to for help, and it turned out that my judgment was correct - when we were halfway there, I received a message from that person and learned where you were, and then I rushed over directly."
Ke Jin was slightly startled, but quickly reacted: "Major General Leng Yan? Are you two friends?"
Qing Buyu nodded and said concisely: "He and I are childhood friends."
Ke Jin finally understood why Leng Yan showed such a subtle expression when he saw Qing Buyu's name on the contact list he gave him... It was such a coincidence, this world is really small.
"You actually came all this way to see me," Ke Jin said, "I'm really... really touched."
"What's the big deal?" Eggers said nonchalantly, "It's better to do something within your ability than to just wait around."
Ke Jin's eyes fell on Ounuo who was beside Eggers, and his expression suddenly became a little complicated: "But you guys are really trying too hard. You even brought Ounuo with you..."
It's not summer vacation yet, shouldn't the child be in class? ?
"Ah, his coming here was purely accidental." Qing Buyu glanced at Ounuo, "Our spaceship had already taken off when we discovered that he was also in the spaceship. We were already halfway there, and it was impossible to turn back, so we simply continued to take him with us.
"Yeah, that's right." Eggers on the side immediately nodded and agreed.
Ke Jin: “…”
It turns out that this child ran here secretly!
"So you just skipped class so openly?" Ke Jin looked at Ou Nuo with a helpless look.
"When you see me, all you think about is whether I go to school or not?" The boy looked dissatisfied.
"He must have been too worried about you." Duan Zihan smiled and patted Ke Jin's shoulder. "Fortunately, it was a false alarm. How is your health now? You should be fine if you leave with us tonight."
They came here by their own spaceship, and since they had an acquaintance like Major General Leng Yan, they were naturally not subject to the local restriction that the routes were only open to foreign countries once a month, and they could leave whenever they wanted.
What everyone didn't expect was that the young man was slightly stunned, then looked embarrassed and said in a low voice.
"Uh...I probably won't be going back for a while."
