Chapter 1294 What is the true character of the businessman
Although a group of people from Fiyali are still very interested in going around the entire Shadow City now, this is obviously a bit unrealistic. We have to first arrange a place for them to live in the next period of time: look at the situation, this
The Void Vendors have no plans to leave the Shadow City in the short term. Phyllis has even begun to ask me about the housing prices of this place...
Apparently the vendor queen's plan was much longer than I imagined.
So Lin Xue and I first arranged hundreds of Felice's subordinates to the "Visitor Area" of Shadow City. This is a large urban area near the Temple of the World Tree, specially used to temporarily accommodate those who came to Shadow City for the first time, and its scale
For larger visitor groups, the area has an environment suitable for the survival of various life forms, and supports temporary customized ecological cabins. In the middle of this area is the "Alien Adaptation Center". This facility with a confusing name is for
Some visitors from other worlds whose life forms are too special. It often happens that visitors from other worlds cannot adapt to the ecological environment of Shadow City: the ecological environment here is based on the earth, and obviously not every race can tolerate the oxygen-containing atmosphere and
With an average temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, you can't let them wear protective suits all day long or even sit in the landing module to spend every day in Shadow City, so we established this kind of transformation center.
Through a simple and quick biological remodeling, alien races can gain the ability to survive normally in the general environment of Shadow City. This remodeling will not change their body frame, nor will it make them feel any discomfort.
It only gives some adaptive functions to the transformed ones, usually improving the tolerance of biological cells or adding additional material circulation pathways to their bodies. When the transformed people decide to leave the Shadow City and return to their hometown, they can also apply for transformation.
Return to the original state. However, generally no one will apply for this, because the transformation carried out by the transformation center is a broad-spectrum adaptive transformation. This process ensures that the transformed life body can adapt to a variety of environments, unless you have obsessive-compulsive disorder. You must change
It should be the original look, otherwise most people would like the transformed body.
This kind of transformation facility is a civilian facility and can be regarded as the most special "medical unit" in the Shadow City. They are distributed in many places in the city, and this one in the visitor area is just one of them. People who often wander around the macro world,
For example, censors and envoys from various worlds are usually senior customers of the transformation center. Their bodies have been transformed to be almost as strong as the servant soldiers to ensure that they can perform tasks in any world environment.
As soon as she saw this renovation facility, Phyllis immediately thought she had seen another opportunity. Pointing to the three-row complex in front of her, the long, straight black queen said with high spirits: "Can this be used for free?"
"Of course...what do you want to do?" I squinted at Phyllis.
"Of course I'd like to sharpen my chin first, and then make my double eyelids bigger," Phyllis answered without hesitation. Then she held up her chest and said, "Well, a D cup is enough for this figure. I don't have any other requirements for the time being."
I almost jumped up and pointed at Phyllis' nose: "This is a biological adaptation center! It's not a beauty salon, okay!"
"Oh, then instead of plastic surgery, you can transform me into a superman, and then we won't need to wear protective clothing when we go to do business on some planets..."
Me: "..." So this is your original purpose, right?
Lin Xue and I left most of Felice's subordinates in the visitor area. Felice led her adjutants and a few cronies to follow us around. Fortunately, except for Felice herself,
Other than that, other Fiyali people are quite normal: at least they care about things other than doing business, such as exploring other worlds.
The original intention of the Fiari people to leave their universe was to make a living... ahem. To explore the unknown world. At least the more normal group of them set out with this purpose, and there is nothing better than the Imperial Database and Shadow City.
The local customs and customs are a suitable exploration target. Several scholars with us seized the opportunity and made a request in this regard: they hope to take a look at the database on the macro world. They also asked if there is any database open to the public.
Libraries and research facilities, etc.
"Oh, there are places like this everywhere." It was painful for me to agree: anyway, the civilian database is open and can be found everywhere in the Shadow City. "I will ask someone to provide each of you with a temporary identification of the timing of the capital.
Card, you can use the identification card to activate the public data terminal here. If you plan to read it all, the things on it will last you a lifetime. There are also places like libraries and public research facilities, but they are all for each race in the macro world.
Institutions established by the empire, similar institutions established by the empire are not allowed to be entered by ordinary citizens, and are only open to students of the Imperial Military Academy and imperial employees such as censors. If you are interested, I will introduce you to imperial affairs in the future.
The College’s Enrollment Plan.”
This answer is enough to satisfy those curious guests. I believe they can find all the knowledge they want here, and they will spend their whole life learning it all. The Shadow City is called the capital of all realms, and is also known as the capital of all realms.
Scholars from all worlds call it the "Ultimate Temple of Wisdom", which brings together all the knowledge and wisdom of the multiverse. The most elite and wisest members of each race are happy to share their knowledge here, and are also happy to learn from other worlds.
The secret of the city. Data ports can be found everywhere in the streets and alleys of the city. They are connected to a civilian database that was only established in the empire and was unprecedented in the old empire. This database stores knowledge from the macro world and for the macro world.
.From the mysteries of the movement of stars to how much oil people put in cooking in a certain world, a certain planet or a certain country, almost everything that can be understood and absorbed by intelligent creatures can be found in this database. In the Shadow City,
Those brilliant mortal scholars use this database to calculate the ultimate formula of the universe, while those busy housewives use the same database to learn the technique of baking small round cakes without adding water.
If you believe in astrology, then you can go to the first entry of the horoscope section to check your horoscope's love fortune. If you believe in science, then you can go to the second entry of the horoscope section to check when that constellation will perish. If you are a parent of a student,
Then you can go to the constellation section to find out which student from the Imperial Military Academy designed these crappy space landscapes - the Imperial Civilian Database is such a magical thing. In order to manage this huge amount of information, Pao Pao even specially arranged
Two production hosts serve as servers for the database.
In addition to this database, various museums, public laboratories, libraries and other facilities can be found everywhere in the Shadow City. These facilities are basically established by elite scholars from various worlds. Of course, those are highly developed and equipped with sufficient
A world with technical strength and self-confidence, and with seniority among the members of the empire. They hope to show off the achievements of their civilization, export culture, and increase their popularity in the macro world or the servant army system. Its positioning is roughly similar to that of major travel agencies
Billboards placed in clusters...
"I think our Fiari Empire can also set up a billboard near here... Um, I mean, build a museum or something like that," Phyllis was led by us through the "Ecology Center" opened by the Eden Federation here.
Technology Exhibition Hall", she was obviously moved. "Chen, in your opinion, where is the technical level of our Fiyali Empire?"
She seemed a little unsure when she said this. I knew that she was stimulated by the starting point of science and technology in the empire. It was just like a poor student asking a top student, "Do you think my score ranks among the best in the class?" It was difficult for her to speak.
But I thought about it and gave her a relatively high answer: "As long as you can control the full set of technologies for cross-world navigation, you can be classified as an advanced civilization. In fact, there are not many civilizations in the entire macro world that have this kind of technology.
There may be only one race in a hundred universes that knows how to jump out of its own mother's womb, so you are pretty good. If you look at it simply from the indicator of 'cross-world civilization', your technological level is higher than theirs back then -"
I pointed at the exhibition hall established by the Federation of Eden. Then the conversation changed: "However, evaluating a civilization cannot just be based on a technical standard. Cross-world navigation technology is just a branch of mathematical rate technology. Evaluate a civilization specifically.
Whether it is high or low depends on its culture, history, overall beliefs and even level of consciousness. If it is a smart race with potential, even if it cannot escape the world, it will be favored and even promoted by us. If it is a person with a weak brain, even if it is
After jumping out of the world, we will delete their technology trees from time to time and let them evolve again from the Stone Age."
Phyllis immediately shrank her neck and broke into a cold sweat: "...Actually, you have a pretty good impression of me, right?"
I:"……"
It seems like this girl also knows that she has no moral integrity?!
The adjutant next to Phyllis didn't speak the whole time, and followed his queen silently. At this time, he couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty, please be more decent."
"By the way, where is our spaceship parked now?" It wasn't until she followed us out of Nancheng that Phyllis suddenly remembered something and asked, "If we want to go somewhere else, do we need to apply for an access permit?
Category?"
I looked at Phyllis in surprise. She had just thought of asking such an important question now. I was very curious about what this sister had been thinking about in the past few hours: besides making a lot of money in business, did her brain
Only Wang Zhi and fermented bean curd are left in it!?
"Don't look at me like that," Phyllis noticed my look and waved her hand indifferently, "There are things that the Queen does not need to worry about personally. Military matters are left to the officers, scientific matters to the scientists, and cultural exchanges
To the cultural experts, I'm just responsible for letting them perform their duties - I don't know where to park my spaceship. Speaking of which, you should be more professional than me in this aspect, right? Your empire is so big..."
I suddenly burst out laughing, okay, it turns out that this seemingly unreliable guy is actually a queen who is well versed in the royal ways. It seems that she is more expert than me in the industry of emperors, generals and ministers. I really thought she was not only doing business but
When you make a lot of money, you don't care about anything.
"A spaceship needs a permit to enter and leave the capital world. Otherwise, you can just apply for civil routes and it will be approved in a few seconds. Civilian aerospace here is as popular as bicycles. But to be honest, there is no place for you in this space.
The places to go, except for the Shadow City, are basically military zones, star battleships, and space star ports. If you dare to go there to sell stones, I guarantee that you will be attacked by anti-aircraft guns within three seconds.
Beat it down."
Phyllis shrank her neck again: She had definitely thought about this!
"By the way, speaking of stones, I plan to buy all the stones on your merchant ships." I changed the topic to the treasures that may be hidden in the Fiat merchant ships. "Remember what I told you before,
I've packed all the cargo in your spaceship."
"What do you want that thing for?" Phyllis frowned, "According to my observation, you rich and powerful people have lost all humanity. Why do you like my three ships of rubble...gems?"
"Nonsense, do you think I really want the stone? I suspect that you dug something that shouldn't be dug," I said angrily. There is no need to keep this matter secret anyway, "How do you think you were the fallen apostle?
Pursuing those in the four quadrants?! There are sensitive materials in your warehouse! Do you know what sensitive materials are? Once those fallen apostles get a whiff of them, they will hunt them down throughout the void! You guys
Help those who want money but not your life!”
At this time, Phyllis finally showed a truly frightened expression: This guy who wants money rather than his life is indeed sometimes scared. She grabbed my sleeve and her face turned pale: "You will definitely give me money, right?"
"
Me: "...That's what you thought of?!"
"Well, I'm most afraid that others will default on their debts, and it seems that the thing you mentioned involves shady things. This kind of shady goods are the easiest to be defaulted on. It's terrible to be cheated."
I can't remember how many times this vendor made me speechless: "Can't you... think normally for once?"
The adjutant next to her also had a stormy expression on her face: "Your Majesty, please be more decent!"
Only then did Phyllis exhale and show her true expression: a bad smile: "I'm just trying to liven up the atmosphere. You can take all the things on the ship and leave nothing behind. Listening to what you say, it's really cool."
I'm a little scared, I was almost killed by those unlucky things. Adjutant, go and notify the warehouse guard. All the goods have been transferred to the Xiling Empire, and our people will no longer touch those unlucky things."
"Free?" I looked at Phyllis as if I was seeing an alien. The word "free" came out of her mouth, which was as curious as Lilina's declaration that she believed in truth, goodness and beauty. "I thought you had to at least ask me...
…”
"Letting go temporarily is for the long-term benefit," Phyllis winked slyly, "Making money from you is the stupidest thing. The place where you can really make big money is over there -"
As she spoke, she raised her arm. The hand wrapped in a long black silk glove pointed in the direction of the Dimension Hub Square.
"In that square, there are mobile wallets with two legs, four legs and no legs everywhere. I want to have a good relationship with you, a wallet wholesaler..."
"My Queen, please be more decent!"
Then, a shipload of stones from the Fiyali people was transferred to the imperial warehouse.
At noon, we took Phyllis and her adjutant to have a light meal at the specialty food street of Shadow City. Before saying goodbye, Phyllis successfully asked me for an unlimited food supply certificate that allowed me to eat as much as I wanted in Shadow City.
I just succeeded in sending away this extremely moral Queen. Phyllis was going to the visitor area to meet up with her subordinates and plan her great trade route. I was going to go to the headquarters again: although that place
There is always a lot of work to do, but I am almost used to this busy life now.
"Why don't you go home and rest first?" When I set off to the headquarters, I glanced at Lin Xue who was walking beside me. Although the eldest lady was in good spirits, she was obviously a little low on energy. She was yawning all the time on the way.
Apparently this was due to lack of rest.
In the past few days, as a prophet who guards the empire, she has been mentally exhausted. I am afraid that even Sandora, who is directing the battle on the front line, has not exhausted her energy as much as she did. In addition, she did not have a good rest last night. Lin Xue
Feeling a little energetic now.
For her who is close to a god, physical exertion and injuries can be easily recovered, but the consumption of energy and mental effort is a problem: not to mention that her ability relies exclusively on mental power.
"I'm not so weak, okay?" The eldest lady glared at me stiffly, with a sudden sense of shyness deep in her eyes. Now she has some conditioned reflexes. As long as she is reminded of what happened last night,
She could accidentally become shy. After softening the hard and prickly skin of this little hedgehog, she faced the real side of the eldest lady - very soft and cute, but her poisonous tongue seemed to have not changed much.
I shrugged. Lin Xue can be very stubborn sometimes, especially when she is in a strong state. No one can stop her.
We held hands and walked slowly towards the city center like this, immersed in a quiet atmosphere that rarely appeared between the two of us. The eldest lady seemed to hesitate for a moment because of something, and then suddenly came over and stood in front of us.
A peck on my face: It was a surprise.
I pinched the tip of this girl's nose. I usually take the initiative, but this time it was this shy guy who took the initiative. This was quite surprising: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay," Lin Xue smiled sillyly, as if what she just did was done consciously. Then she turned her head and muttered quietly, as if talking to herself, "Mu Mu, we will always be like this.
Together, okay?"
"Remember that nightmare again?"
"I can't help it. I always think of what I saw at that time. Now I almost dare not let you leave my sight. I'm afraid that as long as I blink, you will really disappear as predicted..."
"Is that why you agreed to me last night?" I smiled and pinched Lin Xue's cheek, "Just to confirm my existence? Do you want to make yourself feel a little safer?"
Lin Xue didn't say anything, she just squeezed my fingers hard, as if she was afraid that some force would suddenly loosen them.
It seems that the inexplicable wandering into the void and the voice of unknown origin cannot be put aside...
I looked up at the clear sky of Shadow City and made a decision in my mind.
If you have a chance, try... to contact that voice again.
