Because the number of spaceships traveling to and from Haixia Port is too dense, for the sake of route safety, the Interstellar Adventurers Association stipulates that warp speed flight by spacecraft is prohibited within one light hour outside Haixia Port.
The Leonin jumped to Haixia Port a light hour away and changed to flying at full speed.
A light hour means that light has to travel an hour.
The Leonin is an entry-level long-distance voyage ship. Normal flight can only reach 20% of the speed of light. Including acceleration and deceleration time, it will take ten hours to reach Haixia Port.
This gives me time to train my new teammates.
Gloria took Sirius to heal his wounds briefly, take a bath, eat and drink enough, replenish his nutrition, and then put on new clothes.
The clothes are a set of standard student clothes bought by Gloria, without any interesting elements.
However, in Lu Chen's view, the fact that Gloria, an adult woman, wears standard student clothes is an element of interest in itself.
Gloria is over 1.75 meters tall, while Sirius is at most 1.55 meters tall. The height difference alone is only 20 centimeters.
Gloria's weight was visually estimated to be one hundred and two pounds, and Sirius was only about eighty pounds, which was another forty pounds missing.
A standard student outfit looks sexy and tight on Gloria.
When worn on Sirius... a top turns it into a dress, even the skirt is omitted.
Fortunately, Sirius also felt something was wrong, so he found scissors and a needle and thread to cut and sew it up.
When I put it on again, it actually seemed to fit perfectly.
And cute.
It provoked Gloria to the point where she couldn't help but lean over and stick to it.
Unfortunately, Ellie's face remained expressionless, obedient and indifferent.
In the cockpit, Lu Chen took a look at Ai Li's new clothes and found that she was quite suitable for school uniforms.
Although the white hair and blue eyes are not as coquettish as the white hair and red eyes, she has an indifferent and inspirational temperament.
Lu Chen sat at the conference table next to the porthole, drank tea calmly, and asked her:
"Can you also cut?"
Sirius had a new look, and there was some look in his dim eyes.
However, he still looked very indifferent.
"In General Fermat's private estate, the maids had to learn everything."
"What are you good at?"
"Plant spiritual grains, breed spiritual beasts, and clean the house."
Lu Chen understood that Ardenferma did not discover Ai Li's talent at first.
"On the Leonin, you don't need to know everything. You just have to do your job as a spiritual master. You must know how to control animals and insects, as well as some simple medical treatments and cures."
"I will practice hard."
Sirius didn't need training at all. She agreed to whatever Lu Chen said and obeyed 100%.
This made Lu Chen lose some of the joy of training.
"The living cabin has two rooms. You can choose to live in one room by yourself or with Gloria."
The living cabin is not large, with only two small rooms.
Separate captain's quarters.
and a shared room with four beds.
Currently, Gloria occupies four spaces, all of which are used to store her clothes and bags...
Two rooms, plus kitchen, dining room, bathroom, toilet... total less than thirty square meters.
Entry-level voyage ships all have this kind of space configuration.
Sirius glanced at Lu Chen blankly, feeling that this man was treating her so well because he wanted her.
"I... I'll just stay in the safe cabin."
Lu Chen took a sip of tea, shook his head and said:
"The insurance cabin is for sale. You can stay in the captain's room first. When I need to sleep, I can just pick any room. Anyway, there are only three people on the ship who can't sleep at the same time."
Finally, Lu Chen added:
"By the way, this is an order."
"Yes, Lord...Captain."
Next, Sirius began to clean the room.
After all, there is no need for her to plant spiritual grains or breed spiritual beasts on the spaceship... maybe she can grow some potted plants or vegetables.
She didn't just keep the captain's room tidy.
He also cleaned Gloria's room spotlessly and folded her clothes neatly.
The cargo hold was also tidied, and the floor of the entire spacecraft was polished.
This made Lu Chen and Gloria look at each other, embarrassed to litter anymore.
Gloria was stunned. She suddenly felt that this little wolf girl was too well-behaved, which was not good either.
He whispered to Lu Chen:
"It's better to hurry up and buy some spiritual books for her to study, otherwise she won't be able to live this life."
Lu Chen turned his head and glanced at her.
"Isn't it better than you playing games?"
…
Haixia Port is the headquarters of the Interstellar Adventurers Association, known as the third pole of the universe outside the Empire and the New Federation.
The Adventurers Association has good relations with both the Empire and the New Federation, and has signed a large number of trade contracts and legal immunity agreements.
It is said that if you join the Adventurers Association, as long as you do not attack the official ships of the Empire and the Federation within the Pangu Corridor star field, you will not be hunted down or rewarded for anything else you do.
Soon, the Leonin entered within one light minute of Haixia Port.
Received a registration reminder from Haixia Port.
Visiting ships are required to fill in their identity information, reason for entering the port and estimated docking time.
Lu Chen filled it out truthfully.
A welcome message arrived quickly.
"Welcome to Haixia Port!"
Subsequently.
The Leonin slowly sailed into Haixia Port.
Only then did Lu Chen discover that Haixia Port was actually a huge man-made star ring with a diameter comparable to that of a giant planet.
It stands up like a huge stargate, occupying the entrance to the Canyon Starfield.
The huge star ring in Haixia Port, together with the 108 interstellar ships in the Pangu Corridor that can be called moving planets, together form the Interstellar Adventurers Association.
The canyon star field behind is like a randomly sprayed oil painting, gorgeous, twisted, magnificent, and exuding a dangerous atmosphere.
Compared with the starry sky in other places in the universe, it is a completely different style.
Lu Chen was quite shocked when he saw it for the first time.
In the past, I had only seen the Empire’s Stargate and Star Wall in games.
The Rift Sector is a relatively quiet storm zone.
There is a narrow channel between the gravitational turbulence and the twisted black hole.
It is the safest entrance to Pangu Corridor.
You can also forcefully break in from other directions, but you must have at least a team strength of level 50 or above, and be ready to deal with any unexpected dangers.
All kinds of spaceships are constantly coming and going, densely packed.
The Leonin slowly entered the harbor.
Small as a mayfly in the ocean.
The big screen in the cockpit soon received an advertisement from the Adventure Association.
Advertisements for new spaceships, advertisements for modification factories, advertisements for various supplies...
In addition, there was actually an advertisement for the enrollment of the Adventurer Academy.
At the Adventurer Academy, you can learn various professional skills, escape techniques, interstellar communication, and Pangu Corridor adventure guides.
You can study at school or purchase video learning courses to take risks and learn at the same time.
Lu Chen thought to himself that he could take Gloria's suggestion and give Ai Li some five-year adventure and three-year assessment...
On the side, Gloria used her bracelet to check the process of joining the Adventurers Association.
“We have basically met the conditions for membership.
After submitting the application, the next step is the ship inspection, physical examination and flight assessment to determine your strength level to see if you are qualified to venture into the Pangu Corridor.
In addition, the Adventurers Association also charges corresponding guarantee deposits, including emergency rescue fees, take-out supply fees, Internet and instant news fees, and free parking fees for interstellar cruise ships... This is why I want to make more money selling armored engines. s reason. "
Flight assessment?
This was the first time Lu Chen heard it.
"What are the benefits of having a high ranking in the assessment?"
Gloria said:
"Based on the entry-level adventure group of our thirty-level ship, a minimum deposit of one thousand spirit stones is required."
"A group of ten ships will participate in the competitive test flight assessment."
"The first place will receive a guaranteed deposit of one thousand spirit stones for free."
"Second place, deposit two hundred spirit stones, which will be counted as a guaranteed deposit of one thousand."
"Third place, deposit five hundred spiritual stones, and a guaranteed deposit of one thousand."
This reward is not low!
If you rank first among ten ships, you can earn a thousand spiritual stones.
And the Leonin only needs 1,200 spirit stones.
Lu Chen thought for a while.
A safe with a damaged lock cylinder and internal spiritual patterns, plus a level 30 armored engine, should cost more than a thousand spiritual stones if sold.
You can only pay a membership deposit.
If you want to upgrade your armor, buy Marrow Cleansing Pills, and prepare supplies for sailing, you have to get a good ranking.
Lu Chen drove the Leonin and docked at the dock in the trading area according to the navigation.
Sirius remained on the ship.
Lu Chen drove off the ship with his armor and the safety cabin hanging.
Gloria rode a motorboat and disembarked with the armored engine.
The two came to the second-hand market and found an inconspicuous second-hand spiritual equipment purchase shop.
The boss is an old man with black hair and one eyeball is an electronic prosthetic eye.
After appraising the safe cabin and armored engine, he looked at Lu Chen and Gloria.
He looked a little surprised.
"Using a level 30 combat armor to protect a level 100 safe cabin, no wonder it was robbed by you two."
Lu Chen had a straight face.
"I picked this up."
The old man smiled.
"Don't be nervous, this is the Pangu Corridor, robbery is not illegal.
However, I think you look like a newcomer from outside, so it’s hard to tell.
This is an old battle armor engine retired by the Imperial Army. If there are any treasures of the Imperial Army hidden in the safe, you will be on the news soon..."
Lu Chen sneered in his heart.
Saying that your goods came from the wrong source is a typical price-cutting tactic.
"Do you think I will be afraid of the Imperial Army? Just say whether you want it or not."
The old man didn't expect that this tenth-level kid was quite tough, so he pondered for a moment and said:
"It's possible, but if I want it, I have to spend a lot of money to eliminate the source and wash away the traces... I definitely can't give you a high price."
"Stop dawdling, tell me the number!"
"The engine can be given two hundred spirit stones, and the safe can only sell materials, up to five hundred spirit stones."
Lu Chen thought to himself, this old man is really dark!
If it weren't for the level 30 armored engine that he couldn't use at the moment, and he couldn't cut the material of the safety cabin, otherwise he really wouldn't sell it.
"One thousand spirit stones, even if they are less than one penny, I won't sell them."
The old man waved his hand.
"Then you can only find another home."
Lu Chen turned around and left.
After walking a few steps and before entering the armor, the old man sent his men to invite him back.
"Young man, don't be so arrogant. I see you are a potential stock. I'll make a loss when doing business with you. If you find something illegal next time, come to me."
With that said, he paid a thousand spirit stones in cash.
Lu Chen finished taking inventory, left the safe cabin and armored engine behind, and turned back to the spacecraft.
Gloria reminded Lu Chen uncharacteristically:
"What the old man said is true. If Ardenferma lost his safety cabin, he would definitely send someone to find it or offer a reward, and the righteous hunters might also be looking for us. Isn't it a bit dangerous for you to sell it in such a big way?"
Lu Chen was calm as usual.
"Don't worry, Haixia Port is so big, even if you find me, you won't be able to catch me."
Gloria was doubtful.
"The universe is big, don't be too confident."
However, after earning a thousand spirit stones, she quickly put this worry behind her.
The Leonin immediately took off and came to the membership application area of the star ring above.
Lu Chen used the ship's computer to connect to the Adventurers Association's membership program and submitted a membership application.
Fill in the name of the spaceship, the adventure group, and the detailed information of each group member in turn.
Then drive the spacecraft to the designated dock and accept inspection by the review officer.
The spacecraft entered the inspection dock.
The rest of the information has been filled in, except for the name of the adventure group.
Lu Chen couldn't think of a good name for a while, so he asked Gloria and Ai Li instead.
"The name of the adventure group... How about calling it Leonin Adventure Group or Lu Chen Adventure Group."
Gloria put on her gaming glasses and curled her lips.
"It's so unoriginal."
"How about the Cat and Dog adventure group?"
"Get out!"
"Then come up with a name."
Gloria was playing a starry sky adventure game when she blurted out.
"It's called: Original Starry Adventure Group!"
Lu Chen was speechless.
The original batch of Qiong batch is all alive and belongs to...
"Playing games is ruining your brain."
"Just use it for now. It won't be too late to change it when you think of a better name."
"That's all, daddy will pamper you again."
…
Adventure group name: Original Starry Adventure Group.
Flagship: Leonin, a Fiordian circumnavigation ship without any modifications.
Team members: three.
Captain: Lu Chen, human, level 10 spiritual weapon master.
Combat: Gloria, human, level 18 sword spirit warrior.
Logistics: Ellie, werewolf, level 12 spiritual master.
…
Lu Chen slightly hid Gloria's key information, and Sirius also changed his nickname to Ai Li.
Complete the form, take a photo, and submit the application.
Soon, the Adventurers Association sent three reviewers to the dock to board the ship for inspection.
The auditor is a level 30 human woman with two detection robots.
The three people walked around the spacecraft roughly, checking whether the spacecraft's engine, radar system and control system were intact.
Afterwards, Lu Chen and the others were given a simple physical examination.
However, they did not detect Gloria's half-demon identity, nor did they detect level 38 psychic reactions.
It was obvious that they were just going through the motions.
After the three of them left, Lu Chen quickly received the review results from the Adventurers Association.
"Dear [Original Star Dome] adventure group, you have completed the preliminary examination for membership. You can prepare for the exam in the port, learn skills, modify the spaceship, and replenish supplies... Once you are ready, you can take the flight assessment and enter the Pangu Corridor as soon as possible to start the journey. An exciting and thrilling adventure.”
Lu Chen only had a thousand spirit stones on his body.
Being held tightly in Gloria's arms, she didn't want to pull out a hair.
Lu Chen had to prepare this money for the deposit. He could not spend it in advance. He could only take the flight assessment first to see if he could save some money.
With this in mind, he immediately submitted his flight assessment application.
An hour and a half later.
After receiving the notice, Lu Chen immediately went to the assessment site.
The assessment location is the man-made track in the outer layer of the Canyon Star Territory.
The track is not long, just a million kilometers.
A little over three light seconds.
However, this is a multi-pass flight challenge with obstacles and no rules.
A group of ten ships.
They are all level 30 entry-level voyage ships.
Various obstacles are set up during the flight.
During the game, spaceships can cooperate with each other or attack each other.
The Adventurers Association only provides vest airbags to protect the crew. If the spacecraft is damaged, the Association will not compensate.
Every ship that joins the club must participate.
It takes half an hour to reach the end point to pass.
If you fail to pass on time, you must retake the exam.
Only after passing the exam can you officially join the membership and be eligible to pay a deposit and venture into the Pangu interstellar route.
Of course, in order to make up for the loss of the spaceship, the association will also give rewards to the top three.
It is equivalent to one thousand spirit stones, eight hundred spirit stones and five hundred spirit stones, which is still very tempting.
After all, one thousand spirit stones can already buy a Feiandi Zhou type voyage ship!
As soon as the Leonin arrived at the dock outside the track, Lu Chen saw many shipwrecks and crew members wrapped in air bags being pulled out of the track by rescue ships.
The dock is a huge space carrier, a space carrier that carries spaceships.
When entering the dock and queuing up, Lu Chen discovered:
The brand-new Leonin is actually the only civilian ship that has not modified its engine or installed any weapons!
The rest of the adventure ships include ships converted from decommissioned imperial patrol boats, sperm whale star beast ships from the New Federation, and pirate ships made of animal bones...
An interstellar rail ship with containers lined up in a row.
There are Tetris stacked block ships.
There is even a giant sword-shaped shuttle ship.
There are also several Feiandi modified ships...
These ships all have level 30 engines, but they are all equipped with medium weapons or more advanced overclocking auxiliary engines.
There is a suspended hosting platform above the dock, which broadcasts the competition live and makes entertainment programs.
There are even major casinos that offer handicap for the game.
Lu Chen's group hasn't started yet.
In order to strive for the top three with the greatest probability, the three strongest ships looked at each other and worked together to advance and retreat together.
The remaining seven ships formed two teams of three or three.
at last.
The Leonin was left alone.
No one is taunting you, no one is making trouble, no one is interested in your beautiful teammate...
Some simply ignore it.
People didn't even give you a second look.
Lu Chen looked calm and composed, but he was actually unprepared for this.
"It seems that we are not fully prepared."
Gloria frowned, pinched her waist, which was not slender, and her chest trembled with anger.
"Isn't this cheating?"
Lu Chen smiled calmly and patted her shoulder.
"As if we can't cheat, you are my cheating device."
