Chapter 57 Encountering Robbers on the Road!
Once the novelty wears off, the days spent flying in space or the dark universe become quite dull and boring.
For Zhou Ze, cultivation was a natural process, so it didn't matter where he was. But for Luo Feng, his heart couldn't find peace unless he was cultivating.
"Zhou Ze, Luo Feng, we will be embarking on our space shuttle journey and arriving at Qiulong Star in 20 minutes!"
Luo Feng felt a mix of anticipation and excitement, as did Zhou Ze.
No native inhabitant of any planet can remain calm when about to come into contact with external life; the difference lies in their ability to adapt.
……
The atmosphere of the planet Qiulong is very unique and can be clearly seen with the naked eye. Clouds of gas of various colors flow slowly, making the entire planet look incredibly dazzling from the outside.
After receiving the traction signal, an ancient black dragon spaceship outside the planet Qiulong slowly approached the docking port inside the planet.
Through the virtual exterior view, Zhou Ze could immediately see a huge silver city below.
"It's truly spectacular," Zhou Ze remarked, admiring the unique, sci-fi-inspired landscape.
"It's truly astonishing; you can't see anything like this on Earth." A hint of amazement flashed in Luo Feng's eyes.
Babata scoffed, "Those 'you've never seen anything like this before' expressions, remember to tone it down later. You're utterly disgracing Meteorite Star."
"Just a mere planet belonging to a domain lord..."
This is an extremely vast docking port, which appears exceptionally wide even when viewed from the atmosphere. The docking port is filled with a dense array of spaceships, some large and some small.
The spaceships range in size from tiny spaceships that are only tens of meters or even a dozen meters long to large ones that are over ten thousand meters long!
The Black Dragon spaceship slowly landed in the C-level area. Zhou Ze and Luo Feng walked out together, and after paying a Qianwu coin, the two flew towards Qiulong City.
"It's thousands of kilometers from here to Qiulong City," Babata warned. "On Qiulong Star, protection is only available within the city itself. You two, one a second-tier planetary level expert and the other a sixth-tier planetary level expert, are easily targeted!"
"Luo Feng, the Golden Horned Beast must not be released under any circumstances!"
"If we encounter trouble, you use one Silver Guardian to protect the two of you, and the other to hold them off. As long as we don't encounter a cosmic-level enemy, we can easily escape..."
"Of course, 'cosmic-level' is just theoretical; it's almost impossible for a cosmic-level bandit to appear on Qilong Star!"
……
On the only way from Port C to Dragon City.
From an Earthling's perspective, a group of extremely peculiar extraterrestrial human races are gathered on a mountaintop about ten thousand meters high.
The strongest of these people is at the third level of the Eternal Star Realm, and the weakest is at the first level of the Eternal Star Realm.
"Boss, how about we go to the B-level area instead?" a man with green skin said weakly.
The person referred to as the "boss" has an extremely large head but a very small body, somewhat resembling an alien who often makes cameo appearances in Earth movies.
"Let's wait a bit longer. I don't believe every team has bodyguards!" the leader said, his eyes red.
The other team members also resembled a group of gamblers, their eyes seemingly glowing red. One of them, who already had red eyes, looked as if his eyes were about to shoot out lasers.
"We've waited for half a month already, it would be a huge loss to give up now!"
"Yes, we can't wait this long for nothing. I'm not willing to give up now."
"Anyone who comes out of the C-level zone must have a lot of good stuff. If we make a killing, we probably won't need to open a shop for years!"
The green-skinned man glanced at his teammates, who were "outraged," and didn't know what to say. In his opinion, the more you do this kind of thing, the more you need to stay calm.
This group of people were blinded by greed, not to mention that the benefits had not yet materialized.
The green-skinned man glanced at the detector screen, where one or more red dots flew by from time to time, and the target's strength was automatically displayed next to it based on the presence of life force.
This detection instrument cost a lot of money; it was bought with everyone pooling their money, with each person contributing at least a year's salary.
This is why everyone's eyes were red; they couldn't accept not making a sale.
"Beep beep~"
At that moment, the detection instrument suddenly beeped, and everyone immediately crowded around, looking over with expectant eyes.
"There are only two people, one at Planetary Level 6 and the other at Planetary Level 1!" The leader's eyes were filled with greed.
"No bodyguards! Just two planetary-level targets. This is a great opportunity. After waiting so long, we've finally found a suitable target!"
The green-skinned man said weakly, "Boss, how come someone from the C-level zone is so weak? And they don't even have bodyguards?"
"Could this be a trap...?"
Before the green-skinned man could finish speaking, he was rebuked by the only red-eyed man in the group:
"A trap? Bullshit! They're probably just some rich kids who came from who-knows-where for tourism. They only know that Qiulong Star has beautiful scenery, but they don't know they'll run into us!"
"We'll run after we finish this job. Qiulong Star is so big, we'll hide and nobody will find us!"
The other team members were also interested.
Seeing this, the leader said cautiously, "Since you all agree, we'll act according to the situation later. However, we still need to be careful, and we can't completely trust the detection instruments."
"The reason we've been able to keep going until now is because we're careful!"
"Wait a minute, once we see them, if there are really only two people, then we'll take action immediately. But if there's a third, don't even think about it, run away immediately!"
……
"it's beautiful."
As Luo Feng flew, he looked up at the sky. The sky above seemed to be covered with a thin purple veil, while the distant horizon turned blue!
"The scenery on Qiulong Star is quite nice. Your teacher even secretly stayed here for a while to experience the local customs and culture!" Babata said with a smile.
"The beauty of this place attracts a large number of tourists, and even many powerful individuals live in seclusion here."
Luo Feng nodded and smiled, "It is indeed beautiful. Even Teacher Huyanbo was attracted to it and lived here for a while."
Along the way, Luo Feng chatted with Babata, while Zhou Ze quietly admired the scenery and occasionally chimed in with a few words.
Suddenly, figures appeared from all directions, moving so fast that Zhou Ze and Luo Feng barely had time to react.
"Behave yourself! See this anonymous black card? Transfer all the money on your card to this one!" The robber leader's expression was extremely fierce, getting straight to the point!
"Hurry up! Transfer all the money, and I'll spare your lives!"
"Turn around if you want to live! You think we can't do anything about it if you hide in here?"
The other members also shouted back, bolstering the bandit leader's authority.
"We actually ran into them! Damn it, I didn't bring any detection equipment with me. My master's detection equipment was destroyed in a sneak attack. Otherwise, how could we have been stopped by these bandits who aren't even cosmically powerful!"
Babata spoke quickly, but he didn't seem nervous at all. He immediately had a Silver Guard protect the two of them. With the Silver Guard there, their safety was not a problem.
"I wonder if I can win!" Zhou Ze thought to himself, eager to give it a try.
Luo Feng remained calm, but his heart skipped a beat. In the past, there was at most one first-level Hengxing Golden Horned Beast, but now there was a bunch of Hengxing, and even a third-level Hengxing expert!
