MTL - National Star Sea Era-Chapter 189 The mysterious space passage of fake boundary stones
Chapter 189 Fake Boundary Stone·Mysterious Space Passage
The asteroid belt, the mining area under the jurisdiction of Hun Er, is a vacuum area with a diameter of one kilometer.
Hun Er, who has already received Song Chi's spiritual transmission, is already waiting at the edge of this vacuum area.
Not long after, a strong space fluctuation came from the center of the vacuum area in front, and then the black ship Cangqian appeared out of thin air.
"Owner!"
In the communication projection between the interstellar mining ship and the Sky, Hun Er looked respectful.
Song Chi nodded lightly, and without saying much, he directly took out the 20 Furious Tiger mining trucks and 4 standard civilian interstellar mining ships in the Cangqiong cabin, and then took out 5 tons of daily supplies, and A large number of energy blocks dedicated to mining vehicles and mining ships.
Daily supplies are prepared for Hun Er and Zhao Lei. As for the Black Water Black Snake, it is currently sleeping on a large asteroid on the side. Hun Er will only wake it up in an emergency. Otherwise, This guy's appetite is really too big.
Instructing Hun Er to continue mining various minerals with all his strength, Song Chi did not stay here longer and directly jumped to the area where Hun D's mining team was located several light years away.
A few hours later, after the [Purple River Jump Device] completed buffering, under the gaze of the Soul Master standing above the head of the two-headed Chimera, the Cangqiong started the space jump again.
In a small vacuum zone only tens of kilometers away from the activity area of humanoid alien creatures, the Sky appeared.
The landing point of this jump was already decided by Song Chi. It was very close to the activity area of the humanoid alien race, which was enough to save him a lot of time in traveling through the asteroid belt.
Passing through asteroids, it only took half an hour for the Sky to successfully enter the outskirts of the humanoid alien activity area.
Hmm... Today is the time for a new market transaction to start. Now that Song Chi is full of golden merit points, he will naturally not waste this monthly market transaction opportunity.
After all, in his opinion, if he wants to collect 90 gold merit points in the next three months, no, there are only two months left now, the key is to On top of this market transaction.
Today Song Chi did not shuttle through the asteroid belt, but entered the market.
Time passed quickly, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.
With the [Void Membrane] component that has been strengthened to level 30, Song Chi did not stop there and continued to advance towards the interior of the area where these humanoid alien creatures were active.
With his initiative to take back the battleship, this return naturally ended in failure.
However, Song Chi, who was full of expectations, was soon disappointed again.
With the assistance of the component [Void Membrane], the Sky slowly moved forward.
It is not much different from the situation in the past year or so. The situation of the space gate launch this time is still not ideal. As time goes by, not many alien creatures enter the market, which can only reach four digits.
And there is no foreign race with that kind of potential, or a lot of energy behind it. After more than 20 hours, Song Chi has never seen any rare object above purple quality.
Naturally, he encountered many second- and third-level humanoid aliens along the way, but Song Chi did not choose to take action, and did not even summon the soldiers of the Void Shadow Killer Clan.
However, Song Chi, who already had an action plan, found an asteroid in advance and directly put the Cangqiong into the Xinhuo Ancestral Aperture.
In this continuous shuttle, the twenty-four-hour return time soon arrived.
In front of the [Ultra-remote Space Gate Random Delivery Platform], as the release was confirmed to start, more than eighty beams of light rose into the sky from the stone platform, and a corresponding number of space vortex gates were soon formed at the entrance of the market.
After the return node passed, he summoned the Sky again and continued to advance towards the designated area.
Rather than killing these aliens, he wanted to know where these aliens came from and why they kept moving in the surrounding asteroid belt.
Just an hour before the market transaction was about to end, he was really unwilling to take out three [Market Door Orders] at once, hoping to see if he could explode some high-quality rare items.
During this period of time, he did not say that he saw the other party mining minerals or anything, but if it was not to collect resources, what was their purpose?
With this curiosity, the Sky continued to move forward.
This means that he will not receive any gold merit points from this market transaction.
But the result was still disappointing. The alien creatures that entered the market this time were really unreasonable. Three Market Gate Tokens, but they only produced one purple wonder.
Fortunately, this purple wonder can be converted into a purple-quality energy shield, which can be exchanged for at least 4 points of gold merit at the Merit Building. This may be the only point that gives Song Chi some comfort.
Other than that, there were no other unexpected events.
In the end, Song Chi only issued one [Market Disciple Order].
As for the [market walking order]?
Sorry, orange-quality rare items haven’t appeared for a whole year, let alone red epic-level rare items.
After finishing this disappointing market transaction, Song Chi could only continue on his previous journey.
The activity area of these humanoid alien creatures is indeed quite large. They obviously do not have auxiliary tools such as battleships, and they have no intention of mining resources. Song Chi really can't figure out why they travel so far.
Is it just for hanging out?
During the journey, these humanoid aliens really felt like they were wandering around. Wherever there was an untouched asteroid, they would inevitably turn in that direction, and they were always jumping for joy.
In the main control room, Song Chi turned his eyes and looked thousands of meters ahead.
There is a second-level humanoid alien team there, and dozens of second-level humanoid aliens seem to be returning to their stronghold, which is the center area of their activity range.
However, it was not these second-order humanoid aliens that caught Song Chi's attention, but the several first- and second-order planetary belt creatures they escorted.
Song Chi frowned, and a guess he had never had before came into his mind.
“Is it possible that they have been hunting these creatures living in the asteroid belt?”
After having this idea in his mind, Song Chi recalled some previous situations. In the past two days, he encountered more than one or two such humanoid alien teams. Several of them actually escorted various kinds of people. of planetary belt organisms.
Thinking of this, he was already somewhat certain in his heart, but the doubts in his heart still existed.
The strength of these planetary creatures varies, and the humanoid alien creatures don't look like they are lacking food. So what is their purpose of capturing these asteroid belt creatures?
With this doubt and a faint curiosity, the Sky continued to move forward.
The time came three days later.
Six days have passed since the launch. To be honest, Song Chi is a little nervous.
What's important is not whether these humanoid aliens will pose a threat to his life.
With the [Neutron Star Core Armor] component, even if there are four or even five levels of these humanoid alien creatures, he is confident that he will buy time for himself to enter the market.
What he was worried about was whether he could get enough returns from these creatures. The previous disappointing market transaction made him have a lot of doubts about whether he could collect the remaining fifty points of gold merit in the next two months. doubt. Therefore, he can only place his hope on these humanoid aliens, or the mysterious stronghold behind them.
“I hope there will be purple rare objects or some top-quality resources, otherwise...”
Beside a kilometer-sized asteroid, the Sky was floating quietly. In the main control room, Song Chi was talking while casting his sight to the end of the field of vision ahead.
His eyes flickered, and two completely different looks of surprise and surprise intertwined in his eyes.
Hundreds of thousands of meters ahead, there is a pale white light curtain with a diameter of thousands of kilometers. This white light curtain is spherical in shape, covering the asteroid belt with a diameter of thousands of kilometers, as if it has turned into an independent space. .
What surprised Song Chi the most was that he didn’t know how this pale white spherical light curtain was formed. There was no energy fluctuation at all on its surface.
This is also the reason why the [Silver III Generation Ultrawave Magic Energy Detection Radar] has never detected its existence.
In addition, Song Chi also saw teams of humanoid aliens constantly coming in and out of this light curtain. The humanoid alien teams that entered this light screen were basically escorting more or less planetary belt creatures. The teams that went out were all empty-handed.
At this point, Song Chi can basically confirm that the main mission of these humanoid aliens is to continuously capture planetary belt creatures from around the asteroid belt.
As for the specific reasons, this has yet to be determined.
In order to find out these things, Song Chi went to the market. When he came out again, the slavery mark of the [Slavery Medal] component on the Sky had changed from 5/5 to 4/5.
After the toolman Zhao Lei entered the market through the [Market Walking Order], he was sealed by the market rules, and then his enslavement was cancelled.
Of course, this is only temporary. After the humanoid alien creatures are dealt with later, Zhao Lei will still have to enslave him again.
As for the vacated slavery mark, Song Chi has other uses at the moment.
In the cabin of the Sky, a third-level humanoid alien is being imprisoned in a specially made alloy cage.
This was captured by several Void Shadow Killer Clan warriors two days ago, in order to keep it for future use. Now is the time for it to officially play its role.
Thinking about it, the [Slavery Medal] component was activated, and a slavery mark was shot directly at the third-level humanoid alien inside the cage.
There is not much resistance. Even the thorn flying dragon of the flying dragon species has little resistance in front of the [Slave Medal]. What’s more, this bloodline can be regarded as an excellent humanoid alien race at best?
As the enslavement was successful, telepathy was successfully established between the two.
Song Chi quickly conveyed the doubts that had existed in his heart for a long time.
"Why do you want to capture these planetary belt creatures? How was the light curtain formed? Where are you from?"
Hearing Song Chi’s series of questions, the third-level humanoid aliens with respectful expressions replied one by one:
“Foreign race, explore the way!”
“The purple strange thing in the clan, the barrier created by the fake boundary stone!”
“Since I was born, I have been living in the barrier!”
Hearing this explanation, Song Chi's eyes flickered a little, and the word "exploring the road" made him think even more.
After hearing the words "Purple Rare Object", his eyes were slightly happy. Purple Rare Objects, regardless of whether they can be converted into shipboard components, can be exchanged for gold merit points at the Merit Building, and this is also sufficient. It shows the considerable energy behind this group of humanoid aliens.
In addition, since you can take out one purple rare object, you are more likely to have a second or even a third purple rare object.
As for the last one, Song Chi was the most surprised. This was a third-level humanoid alien. He had lived for at least one or two hundred years. What the **** was it that had been living in this barrier all this time?
Is it possible that there are some extremely rare and difficult-to-exploit resources in this barrier?
Or is it related to the exploration of the path mentioned before?
But if it is really related to "exploring the road", then what is the concept of exploring for a hundred or two hundred years? How many alien creatures have been captured in the past two hundred years? What is the path of this exploration?
With this doubt, he continued to ask.
“Exploring the road, exploring what road?”
Regarding this question, the third-order humanoid alien was silent for a while, seeming to organize his words.
“There is a space passage deep in the tribe’s territory, and those captured aliens were sent deep into the passage.”
Song Chi's heart skipped a beat. The meaning behind the words "space channel" was hard to fathom.
After all, whether it is the space channel formed by the void crack, or the space wormhole, the space gate, etc., these are all extremely involved.
Judging from the actions of the high-level people behind these humanoid alien races, no matter what kind they are, the space passage inside the light curtain is bound to involve great interests, or opportunities.
Otherwise, they would never have spent one or two hundred years planning.
“Where does that space channel lead to? Or what is in that space channel?”
"I have never entered that space passage. The elders of the clan do not allow us to get close!"
Hearing this, Song Chi narrowed his eyes.
Three-level tribesmen are not allowed to approach. It seems that there must be something shocking hidden deep in the space passage!
I just don’t know what kind of strength those so-called elders have?
Song Chi felt a little anxious in his heart, eager to know what was in the depths of the space passage, and to find out what the strength of the humanoid aliens in the light curtain was, and whether the Cangqiong had the power to fight.
Thinking about it, he continued to ask:
"How strong are the elders in your clan? How many are there?"
The third-level humanoid alien race enslaved by the [Slavery Medal] did not hesitate at all. Now in its eyes, Song Chi, the master, is everything.
“Half-step to the fourth level, there are five people in total, all half-step to the fourth level!”
Song Chi's heart skipped a beat again. The information he got today was really shocking.
