National Star Sea Era

Chapter 189 Fake Boundary Stone·Mysterious Space Passage

The asteroid belt, the mining area under the jurisdiction of Soul Er, is a vacuum area with a diameter of one kilometer.

Hun Er, who had already received Song Chi's spiritual message, was 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 Da's mining team was 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.

With the help of the component [Void Membrane], the Sky slowly moved forward.

Passing through asteroids, it only took half an hour for the Sky to successfully enter the periphery of the humanoid alien activity area.

With the [Void Membrane] component that had 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.

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.

Rather than killing these aliens, he wanted to know where these aliens came from and why they kept moving in the surrounding asteroid belt.

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, then what was their purpose?

With this curiosity, the Sky continued to move forward.

In this continuous shuttle, the twenty-four-hour return time soon arrived.

However, Song Chi, who had already made an action plan, found an asteroid in advance and directly put the Cangqiong into the Xinhuo Ancestral Aperture.

As he took the initiative to take back the battleship, his return naturally ended in failure.

After the return node passed, he summoned the Sky again and continued to advance towards the designated area.

Time passed quickly, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Today, Song Chi did not travel through the asteroid belt, but entered the market.

Well... today is the time for a new market transaction to start. Song Chi, who is now full of golden merit points, 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.

In front of the [Ultra-remote space door random delivery platform], as the release was confirmed to be started, more than eighty beams of light rose into the sky from the stone platform, and a corresponding number of space vortex doors were soon formed at the entrance of the market.

However, Song Chi, who was full of expectations, was soon disappointed again.

There is not much difference from the situation of more than a year in the past. The situation of the space gate launch this time is still not ideal. As time goes by, there are not many alien creatures entering the market, and they can barely exceed four figures.

And there is no such potential, or a foreign race with a lot of energy behind it. After more than 20 hours, Song Chi has never seen any rare object above purple quality.

This means that he will not receive any gold merit points from this market transaction.

Just an hour before the market transaction was about to end, he was really unwilling to take out three [Market Customer Orders] at once, hoping to see if he could explode some high-quality rare items.

But the result was still disappointing. The alien creatures that entered the market this time were really unreasonable. With three market gate orders, they only managed to get out one rare purple object.

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.

Apart from that, there were no other unexpected events.

In the end, Song Chi only issued one [Market Disciple Order].

As for the [market movement order]?

Sorry, orange-quality rare items haven’t appeared all year, let alone red epic-level rare items.

After this disappointing market transaction, Song Chi could only continue on his way.

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 exploiting resources. Song Chi really can't figure out why they travel so far.

Is it just for hanging out?

While traveling along the way, 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 felt somewhat certain, but the doubts in his heart still existed.

The strength of these planetary creatures is uneven, 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 had passed since the launch. To be honest, Song Chi was a little nervous.

What's important is not whether these humanoid aliens will pose a threat to his life.

With the component [Neutron Star Core Armor], even if there are fourth-level or even fifth-level 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 could only place his hopes on these humanoid aliens, or the mysterious stronghold behind them.

"I hope there will be purple rare objects or some top-quality resources, otherwise..."

On the side of 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.

And 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 alien races is to continuously capture planetary belt creatures from around the asteroid belt.

As for the specific reason, this has yet to be determined.

In order to figure this out, Song Chi went to the market specifically. 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 target man Zhao Lei entered the market through the [Market Movement Order], he sealed it according to the market rules and then canceled his enslavement.

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 free slavery mark, Song Chi has other uses at the moment.

In the cabin of the Sky, a third-level humanoid alien is being held 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 [Medal of Slavery] component was activated, and a mark of slavery 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 [Slavery Medal], not to mention that this bloodline can be regarded as an excellent humanoid alien race at best?

With the success of the enslavement, 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?"

After hearing Song Chi's series of questions, the third-level humanoid aliens, who were already showing respect, replied one by one:

"Foreign race, explore the way!"

"The purple wonder of the clan, the barrier created by the fake boundary stone!"

"I have been living within the barrier since I was born!"

Hearing this explanation, Song Chi's eyes flickered a little, and the word "exploring the path" made his imagination wander even more.

After hearing the words "Purple Rare Objects", 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 hell 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 he 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-level humanoid alien was silent for a while, seeming to organize his words.

"There is a space passage deep in the clan land, and the 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 a space channel formed by a crack in the void, a space wormhole, a space gate, etc., these are all extremely involved matters.

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.

No third-level clansman is allowed to get close. 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, to find out what kind of strength the humanoid aliens in the light curtain were, and whether the Cang Qiong 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 fourth level, five of them in total, all half-step fourth level!"

Song Chi's heart skipped a beat again. The information he got today was really shocking.
