The largest space port in the Karen Kingdom is more like a continent than a port, with a very vast area.樉
About a quarter of the area on the continent is an elevator, used to park various spaceships, and the other three-quarters are all like shopping malls and warehouses.
When this spaceport was built, it was the first year that the Karen Kingdom officially joined the Interstellar Alliance.
In response to the alliance government's call to "promote interstellar civilization exchanges and promote common cultural and economic prosperity," the Karen Kingdom has invested a lot of manpower and material resources.
They moved multiple asteroids, cut them to ensure a thickness of at least three kilometers, and spliced them together. It took many years to finally form a space port with a usable area of more than 18 million square kilometers.
Just to ensure that this continent floating in space can maintain a stable state under the influence of the gravity of surrounding planets, tens of thousands of large gravity adjustment devices have been invested in the inspection and maintenance of such devices. There are more than 30,000 personnel.
King Karen's government draws energy from the star's atmosphere every year, and one-third of the energy blocks produced are used to power the gravity adjustment device of this space port.
As for maintaining the ecological environment of this space continent and repairing and protecting various buildings, the resources consumed are also calculated separately.樉
However, facts have already proven to the entire interstellar society that the efforts of the Karen Kingdom are worth it.
In less than ten years since the establishment of this well-known interstellar space port, all the initial investment has been recovered, and it has quickly become the largest financial revenue pillar of the entire Karen Kingdom.
"To be honest, when the construction of this space port first started, the stars were very unfavorable, and the domestic people were also very resistant."
Dr. Xiangyang loves to collect all kinds of historical materials, and is very familiar with all the major events in the history of the Beja people and the Karen Kingdom.
He stood on the deck of the pirate warship, looking at the port through the transparent protective cover, and started explaining with enthusiasm.
"Generally speaking, the space ports of interstellar civilizations cannot be established within the atmosphere of their home stars. This is to facilitate defense against attacks by dangerous elements such as interstellar pirates."
"So in the early days, the space ports of interstellar civilizations were often built on the satellites of their own main stars. They captured some asteroids of suitable size, brought them close to their main stars, and then built ports on the surfaces of the asteroids. More ambitious interstellar civilizations also It’s just a matter of selecting a larger planet and transforming and building on its surface.”
"In contrast, there is too much unnecessary waste in the design process of a flat space port like the Karen Kingdom. Wonders harm the country. Wonders harm the country. It can be said to be a common historical lesson for all civilizations. Why? How can it not cause a boycott?”
Dr. Xiangyang clapped his hands, "But they have never thought that everything must be viewed in conjunction with the general trend of that era. When the Karen Kingdom built this port, it happened to coincide with the interstellar alliance government's vigorous development of quantum communication technology, connecting The star networks of various civilizations have finally begun to take shape.”
"The quantum jump technology at that time had also begun to become popular. Although it was not as fast and stable as the large-scale artificial wormholes today, it was enough to support the frequent voyages and trade of some high-level civilizations and large enterprises."
"This wonder-like space port, under the promotion of the Star Network, suddenly became popular throughout the entire economy and became the preferred trading platform of all major civilizations at that time."
"Later, when the Star Network era came, all major civilizations rushed to follow suit and built those spectacle-like buildings. Although it caused many bad consequences, it actually made those truly powerful civilizations even more enthusiastic about this kind of thing. I think This is the best way to reflect their strength."
"It can be said that this space port is the epitome of the first-generation star network trend."
It can be seen that Dr. Xiangyang and Patriarch Beya respect the Karen Kingdom very much.樉
The Beja clan's sense of identity and pride in their identity as citizens of the Karen Kingdom has not faded, but has become stronger during the years they have lived on their home planet.
As the saying goes, solitary shade cannot give birth, solitary sun cannot grow.
If you have a shaved head and a hot head, it will definitely not last long.
Guan Luoyang soon saw what kind of feedback the Beiya clan received from the long-term enthusiastic attitude of the entire clan.
Their battleship stayed on the lift platform for less than fifteen minutes. In the shopping mall in the center of the port continent, there were more than a dozen spaceships, one after another, sailing out of the large artificial wormhole.
These spaceships are not very large in size. Each one is only a dozen meters long, but they are smooth and rounded, similar to the shape of a whale. They are all assembled from blue crystal materials and golden metals.
The abundant energy turned into an endless glow, surging in the blue crystal, showing an extraordinary splendor.
The pattern on the surface of the spacecraft is even more ancient and elegant. The bow area is inlaid with a dark golden emblem. The upper part of the emblem is a few words representing the royal family of the Karen Kingdom, and the lower part is the national emblem of the Karen Kingdom, shaped like The pattern of gushing water.樉
"Are you a compatriot of the Baya tribe and the adventurer who rescued the Baya tribe?"
The spacecraft radiated an optical projection of a capable woman, politely extending an invitation to several people on the battleship.
"Her Majesty the Queen was very worried after hearing about the incident on Beiya Star. She just received the good news that her compatriots were rescued, and she is eager to meet you all."
"But Her Majesty the Queen is not feeling well. Could you please accompany me to the palace?"
Guan Luoyang had no objections, and Patriarch Beya and the others certainly had no objections.
Another beam of light was emitted from the spacecraft, carrying a box of chips, and it slowly moved over. After Guan Luoyang opened a gap in the protective cover, he sent the chip to the deck.
Businessmen and tourists who often travel among the stars will install some equipment for themselves that can adapt to different air pressures and different gravity.樉
Among them, the "Natural Sign Adaptation Chip" officially sold by the Interstellar Alliance government is the best-selling one and can adapt to the environment on the surface of most solid life planets.
However, because this kind of chip automatically adjusts according to the health data of the implanted person and the external environment, it sometimes mistakenly regards some diseases as environmental influences and exerts interference. As a result, the cause of the disease cannot be detected in time during the physical examination, resulting in some serious consequences. .
Therefore, if you are planning to settle on a certain planet for a long time after space migration, you will not use this kind of official chip made based on big data. Instead, you will often buy a chip from the local civilization that can only adapt to the local environment.
The box of chips sent by the spacecraft belongs to the latter, and the quantity is huge.
Although these chip types can be replaced at will and are not bound for life, this approach obviously shows an unreserved acceptance of the Beya people.
After Dr. Xiang Yang and Patriarch Beya swallowed the capsule chips, they followed Guan Luoyang and boarded the spacecraft.
The welcoming team quickly passed through the wormhole again, returned to the main star of the Karen Kingdom, and arrived at the palace.樉
Guan Luoyang did not investigate carefully, but only sensed slightly that the atmosphere of the main star of the Karen Kingdom was filled with tens of millions of warning, defense, and war equipment.
There are a large number of energy stations on the surface and even underground, connected to a defense and counterattack system covering the entire planet.
The main gun of the battleship of the One-Armed Bear Squadron is claimed to be a planetary annihilator.
However, even if ten such warships come, they will never be able to destroy the Karen Prime, which is only about 19,000 kilometers in diameter but is armed from the atmosphere to the core of the planet.
In fact, once this defense and counterattack system covering the entire planet is operational, it is possible to shoot down and destroy enemy fleets outside the atmosphere and within a range of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Guan Luoyang nodded secretly. Just what he saw now was enough to resist a seven-star junior strongman for a long time.
At least until the energy of this defense system is exhausted, it will be difficult for a seven-star entry-level character to forcefully invade the planet.樉
In addition to these large-scale defense systems on the surface, the major cities on the surface of the Karen Kingdom must also have hidden and unmoving systems.
When necessary, powerful city defense equipment will be unleashed.
The Karen Palace in front of you, with its golden roof and white pillars and the fragrance of flowers everywhere, is even more important.
No wonder Queen Karen dared to meet a mysterious adventurer who "captured a pirate warship alone".
In the splendid hall, in addition to numerous palace ladies wearing smart clothes, Her Majesty the Queen, the eldest princess and Duke Attila of the Karen Kingdom were already waiting at the end of the long table.
Her Majesty the Queen, who is rumored to be aging and dying, looks like a beautiful woman in her thirties, except that her face is too pale.
She is gentle and dignified, wearing a crown and a palace dress, and sits on a gold and red velvet seat with a smile.
The princess and the duke stood on either side of her.樉
"Children of the Beiya tribe, come closer..."
When the queen's weak voice came over, Chief Beya couldn't help but speed up his steps slightly, approached, knelt down on one knee, and saluted the queen.
Dr. Xiang Yang followed beside him, imitating each other.
The Queen stroked the leaves on the head of Patriarch Beya, chatted for a few words, and learned about what happened on Beya Planet, as well as how Dr. Xiang Yang met Guan Luoyang.
"Okay, it's okay. After such a disaster, the source of Karen will continue to protect you and all Beja people."
The queen put her palms back on her chest, as if singing some kind of carol, and then turned her gaze to Guan Luoyang, "Mr. Adventurer, the entire Karen Kingdom should thank you. It was you who saved the world from the cruel pirates." Millions of our people.”
"To express our gratitude, we should...cough! Cough cough cough!"
Queen Karen coughed violently as she spoke. The princess and the duke leaned over to support her worriedly.
The medical officer walked over quickly, injected the queen with a dose of medicine, and then checked the instrument data on the queen's wrist. He shook his head at the princess and others with a sad face.
The princess's eyes immediately filled with tears, and Duke Attila showed an angry look, as if he wanted to severely punish the medical officer.
Queen Karen held Duke Attila's wrist, still reluctantly maintaining a smile, and said: "I'm rude in front of Mr. Adventurer. It seems that it is up to my two to thank Mr. Adventurer. The children discussed it together."
Guan Luoyang looked at the queen, his eyes moved slightly, and he sighed: "I have heard about Her Majesty's wisdom for a long time. She has managed the Karen Kingdom so well, and all the people live and work in peace and contentment. Such achievements should be achieved by Have a better old age, please have a good rest, and there is no need to mention the things you are grateful for."
"Thanks, I still have to thank you."
Queen Karen said weakly, "I am happy enough in my old age to be praised by strangers. Please go to Mr. Adventurer and Beja's children to rest first. The answers my children will give will definitely make you happy. You are satisfied."
Guan Luoyang chuckled and said: "No need, I am just a tourist walking in space. My eyes are always in the distance and I don't like to stay in one place for a long time. Since I have experienced the scenery of the palace, there is no need to go to other places on Karen Prime. "
"I'll take my leave now."
He raised his hands to Her Majesty the Queen, and there was something strange in his eyes that no one else could notice, "See you later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Luoyang's figure turned into a ray of starlight and disappeared, and he went nowhere.
Dr. Xiang Yang and Patriarch Beya quickly turned back, but they didn't have time to stop them.
Queen Karen's long eyelashes were shimmering with white gold, and her lowered eyes were smiling. She seemed to want to say something, but she had no strength. In the end, she just struggled to hold the palms of the two children. Brought together.
At this time, the princess and the duke also had an ominous premonition and knelt beside the queen's seat.樉
After Queen Karen folded the palms of the two children together, she looked at the tears in the eyes of the two children and made a very low voice: "You, you..."
Before she finished her last words, her pale face drooped weakly, and her beautiful long platinum hair fell forward.
for
The crown, which was specially made to be light in order to take care of the seriously ill queen, also fell down with this lowering of the head, hitting the long table with a crisp sound.
The eldest princess and the eldest duke of this kingdom, who were recognized as two people competing for the throne, did not pay any attention to the fall of the crown.
The two people, who were over four hundred years old, were both crying. At this moment, their hearts, like their young appearance, showed their tender and soft sides, and they cried softly.
Starlight shimmered slightly in the atmosphere of Karen Prime.
Guan Luoyang's body was like a shadow, riding on a pulse satellite in the atmosphere.樉
Pulse satellites, which use pulses to interfere with space transmission and detect abnormal phenomena, are described as a crystal lamp ball with countless facets.
But the lamp ball failed to react at all to Guan Luoyang, who was sitting cross-legged on its head.
If people from the Karen Kingdom inquired about Guan Luoyang's traces, they would only find that Guan Luoyang flew out of the atmosphere and disappeared into space.
"Tsk, reincarnations really shouldn't be too proactive in making any action plans for themselves. It's a waste of energy."
Guan Luoyang took out a small pot of fruit wine in his spare time, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it while overlooking the entire King of Karen City. "I've just arrived on the planet of Karen, and something disrupted my plan, but..."
"Haha, maybe the effect will be better than my original plan?"
Guan Luoyang already had a rough action plan in mind.樉
He planned to pass on the important information mastered by the One-Armed Bear Unit through the connection between the Karen Kingdom and the Star Alliance Headquarters.
This will also allow me to naturally establish a relationship with the Star Alliance headquarters, so as to facilitate the subsequent investigation of the Dao Fruit fragments.
After all, in the interstellar age, sometimes information is the most valuable thing.
When Guan Luoyang checked the news on the Star Network, he clicked in when he saw something he was interested in. Nine out of ten of them required payment. The account the One-Armed Bear had saved for who knows how long has now been reset to zero.
Those secret websites on the dark side of interstellar society are not humane at all.
On the contrary, on the Interstellar Alliance side, adventurers who are not part of the alliance government can also obtain meritorious service by providing intelligence and other means, and use their meritorious service to inquire about top secrets.
Therefore, if you want to make better use of the intelligence channels of the indigenous people of the local universe, establishing a good relationship with the Interstellar Alliance is an indispensable part.樉
But Guan Luoyang didn't expect that when he arrived at the Karen Kingdom, he would encounter a big drama before he could even mention the business.
There are probably a lot of things involved behind this drama, so we might as well take a look at it before talking about it.
