Chapter 194 Unexpected Discovery
In the vast universe, in the distance between star systems, there is endless darkness, but there are still planets and celestial bodies of various sizes in such airspace. They are all free celestial bodies, and only the larger ones are called wandering planets.
A huge spherical object floats slowly in the vacuum. Although it is huge, it is not a planet or a meteorite, but a huge free space station, the spherical cruise bay.
Although it looks spherical, its actual structure is not what the eyes see.
The center of the spherical cruise bay is a core spaceship with a length and width of 20 kilometers. The core spaceship is made of special materials and can release a strong traction force. This force will cause the position at a certain distance from the core spaceship to be pulled, and it can neither approach the core spaceship nor escape from this force.
To accept or get rid of this force, it is necessary to connect with the system of the core spaceship.
In this way, a spherical cruise bay around the core spaceship is formed. The approaching spaceship must first send a request for parking, and only after it is received can it arrange a fixed airspace to accept the traction of the core spaceship.
Li Ming's meteorite spaceship had already sent a message when it approached the cruise bay, and the other party successfully received it. The operation of the spaceship no longer needed Li Ming's control. The system of the core spaceship would directly control the meteorite spaceship to select a location for parking.
Li Ming stood in front of the operating table and watched the spaceship's actions quietly. At the same time, he also noticed the spaceships that had already docked outside the cruise bay. This free space port was full of spaceships, large and small, and varied. Some of them were familiar to Li Ming, while others were unfamiliar. They were densely packed and countless.
While watching, Li Ming suddenly frowned. A larger spaceship came into view, and the appearance of this spaceship was also particularly familiar.
"Isn't this the spaceship of the Tabitha people? Could it be that those Tabitha people... have also arrived here?"
Li Ming looked puzzled, but he was not sure. After all, this type of spaceship is not a unique feature in the universe.
But then again, even if it was the Tabitha starship, Li Ming had nothing to worry about. The cruise bay was an independent area where fighting was prohibited, and Li Ming came here only to obtain the nearby transmission coordinates, so there was no need to worry too much.
Thinking of this, Li Ming was relieved and let the spaceship enter the designated location.
A wide airspace, Li Ming's meteorite spaceship slowly entered it. This place seemed empty, but as soon as the spaceship arrived, it was like entering a port where the spaceship could be fixed. With a muffled "bang", the spaceship was completely still.
This position and coordinates were exactly connected to the traction of the core spaceship. Under the action of this force, the meteorite spaceship will be firmly locked and unable to move at all, just like being tightly grasped by someone's fist.
The lock was successful, and the console displayed the lock information. Then an intercommunication connection request was automatically established between the core spaceship and the meteorite spaceship. A blue beam shot out from the core spaceship, connecting to the meteorite spaceship like a rope.
As soon as this beam shone on the meteorite spaceship, the main cabin where Li Ming was located fluctuated, and an elliptical transmission gate appeared.
Li Ming glanced at the portal and walked over directly.
A blue light flashed, and Li Ming's figure disappeared in the portal. At the same time, a small house close to the wall of the core spacecraft suddenly flashed, and a person walked out of the portal inside. It was Li Ming.
As soon as Li Ming appeared, he looked around the small house. The equipment here was very similar to the previous cruise bay, but Li Ming already knew all the basic operations after docking before entering here. He skillfully took out a star bag and placed it on a round table in the house.
As the star bag was placed, the door of the house opened automatically. Li Ming smiled lightly and walked out.
Walking out of this small house is the hall. A glance shows that many aliens are walking back and forth, some in groups of three or five, and some alone, in different forms.
Li Ming looked in a direction and walked over quickly.
There are many passages and portals in the hall. Li Ming's figure went straight into one of the passages, and quickly walked through the passage to another hall. This hall is full of round tables, which is the trading area.
Li Ming came to one of the round platforms, his eyes narrowed slightly, and various transaction information quickly entered Li Ming's brain. Li Ming put a star bag on the round platform without hesitation. The round platform flashed, and the star bag disappeared. After a few seconds, the light lit up again, and a record star book had emerged.
This record star book was exactly the coordinates that Li Ming bought.
After buying the coordinates, the purpose of this trip has been achieved, but after Li Ming's casual sensing, he noticed some other transaction information, which also made Li Ming a little interested.
Various lists of materials appeared on the round platform. Li Ming was choosing and buying them. These materials were not scarce. They were all ordinary materials, and the price was also very cheap. Li Ming naturally wanted to buy a lot.
The materials purchased by Li Ming were all materials for synthesizing pills. Of course, the most important ones were the materials for refining [Secret Barrier Pill]. Li Ming also bought some materials for Beast Soul Pill.
After a few seconds, the materials in the entire trading area were sold out by Li Ming. After doing these, Li Ming turned around and prepared to leave with satisfaction.
Just as Li Ming left the round platform and entered the passage, a piece of information suddenly entered Li Ming's brain. This information was discovered by Li Ming from the brain of an eighth-level civilization through his wisdom eyes. This information was also the information that Li Ming was very concerned about, so his wisdom eyes passively explored it directly.
The alien from the eighth-level civilization passed by Li Ming. Li Ming stopped in place for a moment, turned his head and looked at the other party, and a rough back appeared in front of him.
The alien was fat and slightly short. His two pointed ears stood straight like donkey ears, and there was a tumor behind his head, like a braid.
Li Ming looked at it and muttered to himself: "Is this alien going to the alien planet?!"
The alien planet is a wandering planet. At the beginning, Imogene said that he wanted to land on this planet to look for materials, but was later forced to give up because of the invasion of the Tabitha star. Now Li Ming has a great interest in this planet. After all, in addition to materials, there are also alien monsters on it.
The alien monster has beast essence in its body, and beast essence is a must for refining secret pills.
With a thought in his mind, Li Ming followed the fat alien.
Following behind him, Li Ming began to explore the content about the alien planet in depth, and an important information entered Li Ming's mind.
According to the information recorded in the other party's mind, the alien planet will fly near the cruise bay, and the cruise bay will provide spacecraft transmission services during this period.
Simply put, people who need to go to the alien planet can register with the cruise bay headquarters. The cruise bay headquarters will charge a fee based on the size of the spacecraft, and then transmit the registered spacecraft to the orbit of the alien planet.
After getting this information, Li Ming quickened his pace and stopped following the alien.
Passing through the trading area and entering another channel, three portals appeared at the end of the channel. Li Ming entered the middle portal without hesitation.
When Li Ming came out again, he had come to a hall. The hall was divided into two floors. Li Ming was located on the second floor, and there was a circular hole in the middle of the second floor, where he could see the situation on the first floor.
There are many round platforms on the second floor, similar to the trading area, but they are not used for trading here, but for registration. Li Ming quickly came to one of the round platforms, operating while looking around.
The entire second floor is not large, only two or three hundred meters long and wide. Excluding the huge hole in the middle, the actual area is not much, and the number of people is even smaller, which can be counted on ten fingers, and they are all eighth-level civilizations.
His eyes looked around, but his hands did not stop. After a series of operations, the registration was over. At the same time, some information about this alien planet also entered Li Ming's mind with the registration.
This registration is divided into two batches, and they are transmitted to two teleportation points. One batch is ninth-level civilization, and the other batch is eighth-level civilization. Seventh-level civilization and below are prohibited from participating. In order to ensure their respective interests, the transmission points of ninth-level civilization and eighth-level civilization will be located at two extreme positions of the alien planet.
This arrangement is reasonable. After all, when ninth-level and eighth-level are in the same place, unnecessary conflicts are likely to occur, and the gap in strength will also be disadvantageous to eighth-level civilization.
After finishing the registration, Li Ming was ready to leave, but his powerful consciousness suddenly sensed something. Li Ming quickly came to the hole in the middle and looked down at the first floor. Several familiar figures had appeared in front of Li Ming, which made Li Ming's face change slightly and his eyes narrowed.
