Chapter 352: The Spaceship Sailing in the Eternal Abyss
A dimensional life form on the same level as Chronoa?
Li Ming was silent, the giant tree reflected in his pupils.
The information he has learned so far does not provide much information about the origin of this tree, let alone its specific function.
There are some videos that claim that this tree was actually created by multiple forces in the main universe and has a special function.
Now it seems that they must have joined forces to kill, and then used this tree to expand the anchor point in the dimensional world, so there are many forces entrenched in this place.
At present, the central world has integrated more than 200 dimensional worlds, both large and small, and has undergone large-scale engineering transformation to form the current "dimensional hub".
The multi-dimensional world surrounding the central world is also currently undergoing engineering transformation and seems ready to be integrated into the central world at any time. They saw it when they came.
The main area is extremely vast, with more than 80% of it divided up by the Xingyuan Empire, the Yongyao Federation, and many star cluster-level civilizations in the Sea of Stars, and belonging to their resident areas.
The remaining areas are occupied by numerous large interstellar research institutes, interstellar chambers of commerce, machinists associations and other similar forces.
The area for free exploration is very small, and some people have roughly estimated that it only accounts for about 5%.
There are only simple rules here. If you trespass into the private territory of other forces without consent, the other party has the right to shoot you dead.
Due to the appearance of the Dominating Holy Elephant, the number of free explorers coming here has skyrocketed during this period, and some areas have been vacated to accommodate them.
Some chaotic information flashed through my mind. The spaceship was guided by the traction system to the payment counter. The docking point at the rear was densely packed with countless shuttle spaceships, almost covering the edge.
They not only have to pay for the docking fee of the spacecraft, but also for the detention fee.
For each head, 10,000 star coins need to be paid every day. It is not expensive, but it is not something that ordinary life can afford.
Li Ming had already taken Lei Ting and other mechanical bodies into his control space. Although Robin was curious on the way, he did not ask much.
Black hole network payment is not supported here. After entering here, all communication signals are sent and received through a central communicator supervised by multiple parties, thus blocking access to the black hole network.
It is also to reduce some unstable factors.
Li Ming and his companion were well prepared and knew the rules here very well. They had already prepared fake identities and fake star network IDs on the black hole network, which came from a remote civilization.
Li Ming waved his hand and paid for a hundred days first, and Robin, who was no longer short of money, did the same.
"These are your ID cards. Please keep them safe and don't lose them." The pink-skinned Snaru waiter handed them two translucent cards with a smile.
This is the basis of everything they do here.
After collecting the ID card and temporarily renting a gray aircraft, he naturally headed towards the location of the Holy Elephant.
The mountain-like Holy Elephant of Domination could be seen from a great distance. It was surrounded by various aircraft and patrol ships that were almost stacked together. It was also shrouded in a certain atmosphere, making it difficult to see the details.
On the visual navigation bar, there is a cute Q-version white elephant.
"I don't know who designed it, it's so cute." Robin complained.
Li Ming selected his target, and the cute little white elephant actually started dancing. He was speechless, and a prompt quickly popped up:
"Please note, there are too many aircraft heading for this destination. All 1,325 nearby aircraft routes are already congested. There are currently queuing, and there are 2,345,787 people ahead..."
Li Ming counted them and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu. How come Commanding the Holy Elephant has become a check-in point?
"I've lined up for you. It's estimated to take a day and a half. You can wait nearby or go somewhere else first."
"That's pretty smart." Li Ming shook his head and looked at Robin: "Is there somewhere you want to go? If not, wait here."
Robin was speechless. He was not a steady person to begin with. He had been stuck on the spaceship for more than a month and couldn't stand wasting time on the aircraft.
"I'll go out for a walk. I heard there are a few flea markets here. They sell some weird things that free explorers have found in the dimensional world. There are quite a few good things there."
Robin looked eager to try, and Li Ming suddenly remembered that with the skull following him, he was like a grandfather with him.
He is going to pick up a bargain.
Thinking of this, Li Ming also became interested. He could also pick up the trash. "Then let's go together."
Robin raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, "I thought you had no other interests besides developing gene seeds?"
Li Ming glanced at him and remained silent.
Robin said embarrassedly, "It's not funny."
He awkwardly searched for the coordinates provided by others on his smart terminal. The place he mentioned was not marked on the navigation map and was an unofficial gathering place.
The aircraft shuttled at high speed, and under the management of the intelligent system, collision accidents were almost impossible. After more than two hours, they arrived at their destination.
This is an extremely wide street, adjacent to the Yongyao Federation’s base. You can clearly see the rows of metal high-rise buildings and the flying vehicles passing by.
There are many kinds of life on the streets, most of them are wearing combat armor and have a fierce aura.
The shops on both sides sell all kinds of things, such as dimensional markers, shuttle ships, various probes, bodyguard services, energy crystal blocks, etc.
There were also quite a few people setting up stalls, most of them were free explorers, and they sold what they found on the spot.
After getting off the spaceship, Robin took a deep breath of the air. The air had a slightly turbid smell due to the gathering of various life forms. Although it had a fishy smell, it still made him feel refreshed.
He stretched his body, his bones crackling, and twisted his head, "I'm suffocating..."
Li Ming looked around. Robin had done his homework when he arrived. "Don't bother looking at the shops on either side. They've been operating here for a long time and sell a fixed range of items. The important ones are the stalls in the center. They're all for free explorers."
"Of course, there are also many guys who try to take advantage of the situation, so you have to rely on your eyesight."
He was very excited and had already taken out the skull and held it in his hand. He had helped the housekeeper pick up many bargains in the past, so he was even more confident this time.
The first stall displayed many old and strange guns, and no one knew what civilization they came from. Robin fiddled with them for a while and then lost interest.
The two of them went deeper and deeper. With Li Ming's current eyesight, he could see the clues of most things at a glance.
He did find quite a few things, even some remnants of Class A weapons, but they were of average use and difficult to control.
"This is an A-grade weapon, but it's broken." The butler's voice sounded in Robin's ears. In his hand was a khaki mechanical spear that was only half broken.
Robin's eyes grew hot. After a moment's thought, he picked up his smart terminal, wrote a few words, and handed them to Li Ming. "Will your teacher accept any business repairing A-class weapons?"
Li Ming thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "My teacher doesn't repair A-level weapons."
If he wants to repair a weapon, he must first control it and then repair it, which costs a lot of metal energy.
Robin certainly couldn't afford the price, and he was too lazy to explain further, so he simply refused.
Robin was helpless. After thinking about it, he realized that Boss Qinglong was at a certain level and this business was a bit too small.
He was not going to ask Li Ming for help and waste the favor.
"How can there be someone selling abandoned spaceships..."
"Yeah, it's already rotten like this, and you're still selling it."
When we walked to the middle, we saw a large number of living creatures gathered here, bustling about, as if they were watching something.
Judging from the parts exposed above the crowd, it seemed that the spaceship was broken into two pieces.
Robin leaked a little bit of life breath, which frightened the crowd and they hurriedly made way for him.
In the field, there were indeed two pieces of pitch-black spaceship wreckage, cut from the center and suspended by metal chains. They looked lifeless, and the silver-gray armor layer was torn apart, revealing deep passages and mechanical structures in the cracks.
"I have never seen a ship with this structure," someone, who seemed to be a mechanic, said while thinking, with his head lowered and a metal analyzer on his face.
"This battleship has no weapons, but it has an extremely powerful shield system and armor layer."
"But it doesn't belong to any known metal, not even metal."
"Also, there are evenly distributed particle generators on the armor layer, which can ensure that the spacecraft is covered with special energy particles for a short period of time, but I don't know what specific energy it is."
"This design shows that its former owner placed great importance on the spacecraft's defensive capabilities. It was specifically designed to carry out missions in extremely dangerous places."
"Extremely dangerous places?" Everyone looked at each other, their interest piqued. "What extremely dangerous places?"
"Pah--"
The spaceship seller clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. He had a single green horn on his head and skin covered in scales. "Alright everyone, I was right, wasn't I? The material of this spaceship is extremely special and barely reacts to any energy."
"Not reacting to any energy?"
Immediately, a living creature stepped forward and raised its thick arms covered with scales.
In the next moment, black flames and thick smoke swept over half of his body, and one of his hands turned into a huge black claw, spewing out flames full of dangerous aura.
The other party gestured at the two pieces of wreckage with its claws, and flames spurted out, covering them. After a moment, the flames receded, and there was indeed no sign of damage left.
There was a cry of surprise all around. The opponent was a Class B life form, yet it didn't leave any traces, which showed how tough it was.
Li Ming's face was odd, and he turned to look at Robin, "Do you feel that the material is familiar?"
"That seems to be Terrax's small exploration ship..." He wrote a paragraph on the smart terminal.
Li Ming raised his brows slightly.
"Please make way..." There was a noise behind, and a group of soldiers in dark blue combat armor forced their way out.
"This is someone from a laboratory under the Yongyao Federation..."
The person who was pushed away was dissatisfied, but after discovering the other party's background, he could only hold his breath.
"Your Excellency..." The leader was arrogant, with his head held high, and swung out a twisting stance that enveloped the two men.
After a short conversation, the Twisted Stand withdrew and the soldiers began to move the wreckage of the spacecraft. It seemed that a satisfactory deal had been reached, and the seller's face was filled with a smile.
"Could that be a spaceship sailing through the Eternal Abyss?" someone in the crowd suddenly spoke up. He looked like a veteran adventurer, his expression horrified. "Rumor has it that there once was an extremely powerful civilization in the dimensional world, and they frequently explored the Eternal Abyss."
"Yongyuan..." Li Ming pondered, and the people from the Glory Federation quickly left with their things.
The vendor was delighted, "Okay everyone, you don't know the goods. For those who do, I have a lot of good stuff here. Come and take a look."
This was convincing, and many people came over. Li Ming also took a look and rubbed it again, and he really found something good.
[Energy Control--Special Type: A badge of honor from a powerful life form.
Control conditions: 5 million metal energy
Control Effect - Career Advancement: Can be promoted to Gun Master.
He stroked an exquisite badge that depicted a figure holding a giant energy cannon, a control item for career advancement.
"Good eyes..." The vendor gave a thumbs-up and said, "This is one of the few things I found on that spaceship..."
Robin was speechless and said, "You've said this more than a dozen times just now."
The seller looked embarrassed. Robin's life form was not low, at least a Class B life form. He whispered, "Everything else is nonsense. This is the truth."
"Here you go." Li Ming put it in his pocket and paid for it: five million star coins.
Robin squeezed the skull, and the butler's voice rang out, "I don't see anything special about it. It just doesn't have a normal badge."
"Blind." Robin muttered, but he didn't think Li Ming would take useless things.
housekeeper:"……"
After strolling around for most of the day, Li Ming saw a lot of strange things, and at the same time he also tried to find out information about the world of metal element dimension.
There are very few worlds like this. They are the most valuable type of elemental world, and their coordinates will be sold at high prices.
After browsing for a few more hours and finding that there was really nothing good to see, both of them lost interest.
I returned to the aircraft, navigated to the residential area, booked a hotel, and after going back and forth for most of the day, it was finally their turn.
"That is to say, there is a certain threshold to come here, otherwise the whole world would probably be filled up." Robin looked at the dense aircraft around him and felt emotional.
The aircraft are towed to the parking point by the intelligent system. Since they are flying life forms, they can just stay in mid-air, otherwise they will have to wait in a longer queue.
As soon as he came out of the hatch, he saw the mountain-like Holy Elephant of Domination head-on. The vast pressure came over him, and Robin was unable to recover for a long time.
"Please follow the instructions and line up in the nearest team." The broadcasting robot shuttled back and forth and announced the voice.
Li Ming took a quick look, his expression indifferent, and turned around and said, "Let's go."
"Let's go?" Robin was stunned. Then he realized that in the teams arranged around him, there was a floating door at intervals, flashing with a bright blue light.
"Fuck, it can even detect whether someone is wearing a mimicking mask." Someone cursed in a low voice and turned away. Many people discovered this.
This is an orderly and civilized area, and many people hide their identities for various reasons.
"Check the mimicry mask?" Robin's heart suddenly turned cold. Not daring to delay, he followed Li Ming back to the spaceship, cursing.
