According to the current laws of the empire, exploration rights do not represent ownership. If mineral deposits are discovered, purchase rights must be purchased.
But since Duogan has bought it out, others are not allowed to explore privately, and they must first obtain her permission.
If the military or officials have needs, they are also eligible to conduct exploration - what she bought was not an exclusive exploration right.
In order to protect his own opportunities, Dogan still spent some money.
The reason why she didn't buy the exclusive exploration rights was that it was too expensive, and she didn't want to attract other people's attention.
With her status in the empire at that time, she didn't have to worry about keeping good things if she found them, but she didn't like trouble.
Buying the exploration rights here is more like a declaration... I have fallen in love with this place, and others don't have to worry about it.
One more thing, if she didn't have such a huge power under her control, it would be difficult to buy the exploration rights for such a large space.
Not to mention at a very low price.
In any case, at first, she didn't pay much attention to the two starships - they were probably officially commissioned explorers.
But after the starship on the opposite side recognized the person, he turned around and ran away. It was obvious that there was something wrong in his heart!
But it's obvious that the other party has something up his sleeve, otherwise he wouldn't have run away when he saw him.
However, if you want to escape in front of the digital phantom - even the Alliance's division ships can't do it!
Jing Yuexin and the paranoid clone each drove a small ship and chased after him.
The large merchant ship also wanted to escape when it saw this, but unfortunately, neither starship could outrun the small ship.
Not long after, the two starships were beaten, one was slightly injured and the other was seriously injured, and Xiao Hu took control of the control system.
Then Dogan interrogated him in person with a dark face, and soon learned the situation.
The heavy-duty starship comes from a security company and takes over the task of space bodyguards.
Another large merchant ship came from a research institute and came specifically to explore this area of space.
Dogan's face turned dark when he heard this, "Do you know who holds the mining rights here?"
As soon as the other party said something like "I don't know," Duogan raised his hand and slapped the other party on the head.
Then she looked at the second person calmly, "You don't know either?"
How dare this guy continue to lie? He just did it all.
To put it simply, something went wrong with Duogan's subordinates again - some people said that Lord Duogan attaches great importance to this airspace.
Then someone took care of it.
After many years of observation, someone discovered that Duo Gan had not been running this place for a long time, so he plucked up the courage to look for opportunities.
It's not that they don't respect Duogan enough, it's that with current interests, it's easy for people to forget their fear.
Dogan is the supreme being respected by everyone, let alone a member of Digital Phantom. Who doesn't want to know her secret?
However, there is also a detail here. The disappearance of Kefu has indeed made the people of Dogan become less vigilant about this place.
Not many people know that Duo Gan will hide here and practice when he is fine.
That large merchant ship was the employer of this operation, and they were also the main force in exploring this nebula.
Merchant ships not only have cargo holds, but also quite powerful firepower, and most importantly, a lot of instruments and equipment.
For Qu Jianlei, who deals with the top technologies of the Empire and Alliance all day long, this equipment is still far behind.
But it is undeniable that these devices are really difficult for small and medium-sized forces to obtain.
The person in charge was only an A-level, but he revealed his identity: a professor at Imperial Academy!
He said that he was helping his boss complete the project - the person standing behind him was the most senior subject leader.
Imperial College is known as the number one institution in the empire. Even if other colleges are dissatisfied, they must admit that they are at least looking at each other.
Normally no one would mess with the teachers and students from Imperial College.
But when Jing Yuexin heard this, her face instantly darkened, "It looks like we still have to search for souls. I'll have to thank you, Senior Yihe."
"Leave it to me, then we'll get started," Yi He muttered and started searching for souls.
The results of the soul search are a little surprising. This guy actually came up with the idea of stealing chickens on his own.
That's right, just an A-level person dares to think about the opportunity of Duogan Duogan. It can be seen that the daring ones are really starved to death.
The Supreme Being behind him knew about his plan, but did not support it - but it is worth mentioning that he did not explicitly oppose it.
In addition, this A-level came to this star field because of the instigation of his assistant.
His assistant was also on the large merchant ship, but when Qu Jianlei and others were interrogated, this man had already committed suicide.
Dogan was momentarily curious and suspected that this person might be an Alliance spy, so he collected genes for comparison.
It is a pity that no foreign genetic characteristics have been collected, and it is basically certain that they are natives of the empire.
There are more than thirty people on the large merchant ship. Unlike ordinary merchant ships, they are doing research, so it is normal for them to have more people.
Seeing this scene, some people were stunned, "You... actually killed the teaching assistant!"
"I don't know whether to live or die!" The paranoid raised his hand and pointed at the wind, blowing the speaker's head. Do you have a say here?
Qu Jianlei raised his chin at the professor, "This person, add genetic simulation potion."
The term genetic simulation is actually not quite right. Strictly speaking, it refers to genetic mutation, which is a by-product of Qu Jianlei's research project.
The reason why it is called a genetic simulation potion is because the mutation direction he designed is to impersonate the genes of the Alliance or the Federation.
The difficulty of manufacturing this potion is not low, but the Alliance can already impersonate the genes of the Imperial people, and the technology has entered the practical stage.
Qu Jianlei got a few injections of medicine, and originally wanted Xiaohu to analyze the mechanism and how to better identify spies.
As a result, Xiaohu messed up the technology tree and developed a reverse potion.
The professor had never heard of the simulated potion, but as the name suggested, he knew what it was about. His expression changed when he heard this.
"You, you...are you worthy of the title of Digital Phantom by doing this?"
Duogan snorted coldly, "You dare to offend me. Isn't it because we are too kind?"
The matter has come to an end at this point. Meeting such a Xiaoxiao is just an episode in life.
After imprisoning all these people, everyone began to look at the crimson planet in front of them.
Qu Jianlei asked aloud, "Three seniors, can you tell what the mystery is in this nebula?"
The three seniors were silent. After a long time, Yi Hecai spoke in a deep voice, "The power of heaven and earth is terrifying."
Taoist Jiao couldn't help it, "It may not all be the power of heaven and earth. Fellow Taoist is making an arbitrary decision."
"Okay," Xizhao said, "Let Jing Yuexin test the power of the soul-suppressing bell first."
The power of the Soul-Calming Bell was beyond most people's expectations, and the star cluster in front of them actually trembled slightly.
Feng Wangwang was also shaken to the point of dizziness, "Boss, stop, stop... my mind is completely gone!"
Paranoid became aroused after seeing it, and he also took out his Yin Ming Bottle and fired it at the dark red nebula in front of him.
After he survived the thunder tribulation, he got his magic weapon, but until now, he has never fully activated it.
A burst of extremely cold air spurted out, and Nebula first trembled slightly, and then made a beeping popping sound.
It turns out that the encounter between extreme cold and extreme heat actually produced an explosive effect, and it was only the Yin Ming Bottle that started to activate.
The paranoid man looked at it and snorted coldly, "I couldn't fight with this thing before, but now I want to experience it."
As his output increased, the fluctuations in the nebula in front became larger and larger, and the explosions became louder and louder.
Finally at a certain moment, Qu Jianlei, Taoist Jiao and Yi He all shouted, "Okay, stop!"
Then it was Xizhao who expressed his opinion, "This place... is a bit strange."
"Hmph," Daoist Jiao snorted, "I thought you would endure it forever."
Jing Yuexin felt a little confused after hearing this... It was just the three of us who co-wrote it, so we didn't feel anything?
But in fact, she had already survived the thunderstorm, and compared to the last time she came, she felt a little different in her heart.
"So... this place is not a creation of heaven and earth? I have a vague feeling that it is not naturally generated."
"You have to ask Xizhao about this," Taoist Jiao said angrily, "The spirits of heaven and earth are very sensitive to this kind of thing."
Xizhao replied angrily, "There are countless strange things in the world. I am nothing more than a little elf. How dare I be so presumptuous?"
"You just want to watch our jokes," Daoren Jiao snorted disdainfully, "You are so naughty and ridiculous!"
Like Yi He, he really looked down on the alien Xizhao, even if he was also a Nascent Soul.
"I advise you to take care of yourself," Zhizi twisted in the air, "You should know that it is very easy for me to mess with you!"
This is really not bragging, he is the nemesis of Daoist Jiao's state - the soul and body are not perfectly matched.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been it that secretly knocked Daoist Jiao unconscious with a single kick.
"Okay," Yi He came out to persuade him. He did look down on Xizhao, but in this state, it was hard to be serious.
After all, he and Taoist Jiao each had their own shortcomings, but Xizhao was basically intact, "Let's explore this nebula?"
Everyone here has this intention, so naturally no one will refuse.
The last time it entered the nebula was an ordinary starship, but this time it was a division-class ship.
After walking forward for a while, they encountered a barrier made of flames.
The last time Qu Jianlei and the others came, they were blocked here. This time, the division-level ship still couldn't rush in.
It’s not that the starship is not powerful enough, nor is it lacking in kinetic energy. The key is that the barrier is not only tough, but also elastic and slippery.
Division-level ships can force their way in, but the crux of the problem is... they don't use force!
A soft electronic synthesized sound came from the division ship, "It is recommended to attack with all your strength. Theoretically it may work."
"No!" Yi He and Taoist Jiao said at the same time.
After a pause, Yi Hecai said, "It's not easy to break it. Even if you can, it will cause losses."
At this moment, a burst of spiritual consciousness came.
But it was the hot environment here that Feng Wangwang hanging outside the division ship couldn't stand anymore.
"Boss, I really can't stand it anymore, help me, help me..."
