My sampan can be upgraded

Ling Qi opened the task system, and a large number of first-level tasks were presented on the light screen in the form of a list. These tasks are for the entire Stargate, not limited to this branch, so there are a lot of them. And with Ling Qi's level, he could only see first-level and unlimited-level tasks.

"Screen the tasks of the W8972 branch, give priority to any level, and give priority to high returns!" Ling Qi set up intelligent filtering conditions, and the task list was completely empty, leaving only a dozen or so items. Among them, there are no unlimited tasks.

"Stargate No. W8972MS09 located in the Moshi Kingdom needs to replace some functional modules. This task involves a large number and the distance is also short... but the return rate is a bit low, only 800 contribution points and 80 star coins!" Ling Qi took a fancy to it! A task, ponder for a while and decide what to do next. A little adds up to a lot, and you can’t stop doing it just because the pay is low.

"It's a pity that you can't take on multiple tasks at the same time, resulting in a waste of round trip time!"

After a long pause, the Sky Survey resumed sailing and continued towards the branch. From here, after leaving Baishi Ruins, you still need to cut diagonally into a section of the starry sky in the Chishu Kingdom. It will take about a day and a half to reach the branch by speeding.

In the Crimson Kingdom, there is a small celestial attraction called the Crimson Nebula. This is a miniature nebula. Its composition is the same as that of a nebula, which is formed by the accumulation of cosmic dust and gaseous matter. However, its volume is less than one percent of that of neighboring star systems, and it is far from the scale that can breed stars.

Absorbing various rays and visible light from other stars, this miniature nebula initially presented a gorgeous scene and became a celestial wonder in this star field, attracting many interstellar travel groups.

The Sky Survey used the star gate to travel through the endless void and appeared in a star system in the Kingdom of Chi.

In the bridge, Ling Qi was watching the Red Star Nebula through images on the Internet.

"No wonder people like to get closer to visit. The Red Star Nebula under the holographic projection only has its shape and cannot make people feel the immersive shock!" Ling Qi looked at it for a while, considering that the time limit for replacing the module was relatively sufficient, I decided to go see the nebula up close first.

After he announced this plan, the girls cheered. Opening the energy shield and watching the nebula up close on the deck is something they have longed for for a long time.

"We can have a party on the deck. Opportunities like this don't come around often. It can make us reminisce for a lifetime~!" Some female soldiers were discussing excitedly.

Another female soldier who is addicted to making money suggested: "I think there will definitely be no shortage of spaceships to visit. We can open the deck and business area of ​​the cruise ship near the nebula, or simply open the guest rooms and turn it into a local hotel. Party regularly!”

"It's better to just operate like we did in the Jingyue Empire before and start groups in the surrounding star systems. Fast speed and high quality are our advantages. Others operate one trip every ten days, but we have one trip a day!"

When Zhuo Yun heard such discussions, she smiled and said: "Don't have such wishful thinking. If this really happens, you will definitely be hit by various forces in the local tourism industry. Moreover, you seventh brother cannot stay in one place for a long time!"

Amid everyone's expectations, the Sky Survey crossed another star system and passed through a star gate at the edge.

There is also a market here, which is like the last station near the remote mountainous area. It is not large, but there are many interstellar cruise ships and private spaceships parked there. They may not necessarily be traveling to and from nebula attractions, but may also be traveling to and from habitable stars or resource stars around this star gate.

Ling Qi did not go to the market, but went directly to the depths of the starry sky where the Scarlet Nebula was located.

The distances between star systems are often vast and insubstantial. Compared with these infinite spaces, nothingness actually contains countless dark asteroid belts, wandering planets, meteorites, ice floes, etc., among which there are hidden various starry behemoths and even the swarming Zerg. It is the real A dangerous "wild area". It is the existence of these "wild areas" that absorb and consume the visible light of many stars.

The Red Nebula is at the edge of this wild area, close to a star system. If the jungle area is compared to the sea, it is in the offshore area.

If its location is deep into a wild area, humans may not dare to develop tourism business to visit it. Not to mention the dangerous environment, the distance is often measured in light years, and even flying a curvature engine spacecraft to visit it is unrealistic.

Therefore, according to Ling Qi's understanding, except for the Star Gate force, which takes the lead and has been tirelessly organizing the top forces for generations to jointly march into the depths of the starry sky and build star gates around stars to expand the starry sky territory for mankind, there are basically no forces. Proactively enter and traverse off-road areas. Even if other forces want to find and develop new resource stars, they must wait until the star gate is built.

Having said this, it is not difficult to understand how terrifying the top forces like Star Gate control resources. After the Star Gate is built, the first to benefit from the development of new areas are undoubtedly these top forces themselves. Also in this process of development and exploration, the costs paid in various aspects are beyond people's imagination.

"Star Gate is the pioneer of mankind's expansion of the universe, and it is also the biggest beneficiary!" This is what Ling Qi learned after studying the internal information of Star Gate.

After learning this information, he felt a sense of honor and planned to respond to the call from inside the Star Gate and join the team that traveled through the wild areas to explore the new star field on the edge of human civilization. Fortunately, he woke up in time, at least he doesn't have that strength yet.

"I am maintaining the Star Gate from behind, and I am also contributing to human civilization!" He convinced himself at the time, suppressing the urge to move...

The Sky Survey moved forward at its ultra-high speed for more than an hour, gradually exceeding the normal scope of human activities in the star system and developing interstellar resources, and began to move away from the civilized area.

At this point, we can already see the Red Nebula under telescope imaging, but we are not close and still don't feel like we are there.

This nebula is too small. If it were a large nebula, it would be visible from many star systems in the universe.

After advancing for another hour, Ling Qi reduced his speed because he saw another cruise ship ahead of him traveling in the same direction. This was the first group of people they met after passing through the star gate.

As the distance approached, the cruise ship in front also spotted the Sky Survey behind it, and were shocked by its size. The size of this cruise ship is already considered mainstream in the local tourism industry, but it is less than one-sixth of the size of the Xiantian.

After Ling Qi caught up with the opponent, he reduced his speed to 1 and moved forward side by side. At this time, they saw another spacecraft returning more than 200,000 kilometers ahead.

And here it is close to the nebula area. Even with the naked eye, the existence of the nebula can be seen through the special aerospace glass.

Ling Qi opened the energy shield and gravity system on the front deck of the tenth floor. After instilling air pressure, he informed everyone that they could go up and have a sneak peek. He himself also happily led the twins to appear on the deck together with Xiaorou.

As for Ao Ying, she had seen Da Xingyun several times and was practicing in depth, so Ling Qi didn't call her.

"pretty!"

This is Ling Qi's most intuitive feeling.

Through the invisible energy shield on the deck, it seems as if you are standing directly in the starry sky, without any obstruction of vision. The nebula is very three-dimensional against the backdrop of countless stars, and the background is deep and vast.

There were constant exclamations on the deck, and the female soldiers were mesmerized by the sight, especially as they continued to approach the nebula.

From their perspective, the nebula was in the shape of a huge irregular tree, like a giant standing tall in the universe. It absorbs cosmic rays and other visible light and emits brilliant colors. Some parts are as red as blood, some are as blue as the sea, some are as warm as jade, or as dense as dark clouds.

Looking at the mountain and running to death, this feeling is infinitely magnified in the universe. Especially after reducing the speed to normal speed and advancing for another three hours, they felt that they were getting closer.

By this time, everyone's sense of novelty had long worn off and they no longer lingered on the deck. They decided to go back to rest and wait until they were completely close before taking a good look at it.

This wait is just one day. The Sky Survey was approaching the edge of the nebula, a million kilometers away, and was already quite under the nebula's shroud.

There are no stars growing inside this nebula, and its gravity and temperature are far less than those of large nebulae, so the danger is much lower. The starry sky coordinates where the Sky Survey arrived was regarded as a frontier for close-up visits. Hundreds of spacecraft of various types were parked together, including more than thirty cruise ships.

Of course, compared to the huge nebula, the space near it is vast and boundless, and there may be many spacecrafts from other directions approaching to watch it. Ling Qi followed the local cruise ship to this concentrated area.

After stopping the cruise ship, Ling Qi opened the top deck and shared with everyone the beautiful scenery within reach. Watching a group of beautiful figures excitedly filming and broadcasting live to family and friends, chattering and laughing, Ling Qi felt inexplicably that this seemed to bring more satisfaction than watching it herself.
