"We are about to arrive at Galloping Horse City. Passengers, please get ready …"
Gao Zhengyang, who was lying in the sealed nutrition pod, exited the Star Web, opened the nutrition pod, and slowly sat up.
He hadn't eaten or moved for six days, so his body was in a very weak and floating state. It was as if there was a layer of membrane separating him from his body. It was like having a bad cold, or suddenly arriving on the surface of a planet after floating in space for a few days.
In short, he felt uncomfortable everywhere!
Long-distance airships carried both people and goods. Because they needed to pass through two space doors to perform a space jump, the space inside the flying ship was utilized to the extreme.
Every passenger could only stay in the sealed nourishment chamber and was not allowed to leave during the flight. This is safe and saves space.
The Space Gate was the foundation of the Space Folding Jump. Without the Space Gate to open up the curved space channel, it would be very difficult to open up the space channel with just the flying ship.
The scientists of the Union Government found the most suitable location in the vast galaxy and built the dimensional door. It allowed humans to easily travel hundreds or thousands of light years.
Thanks to this teleportation technology, the Alliance was able to rule over forty large galaxies and form a stable political organization.
The fee for a flying ship to pass through the spatial door was very high, and it was calculated according to the size and quality of the flying ship. Therefore, the space on the flying ship was very small.
Gao Zhengyang originally wanted to take a look at the magnificent scenery of the Milky Way, but when he got on the flying ship, he realized that he was thinking too much. There were no windows on the flying ship at all. He could only stay in the sealed nutrition chamber. Fortunately, he was connected to the Star Web most of the time, so it wasn't too boring.
Since he had nothing to do these few days, Gao Zhengyang searched for information about Galloping Horse City on the Star Web. He now had a general understanding of the city.
The Pegasus Space City was huge, with a population of nearly 100 million. It was also the political, economic, and cultural center of the Pegasus Galaxy.
Not far from the Pegasus Space City, there were seven planets suitable for human habitation. The total population of these planets was probably close to ten billion.
For the humans living on these planets, the Alliance privately had a unified name: Earthlings.
The direct meaning was the people on the surface of the planet. The hidden meaning was that he was a lowly human. Although the Alliance emphasized freedom and democracy, it spoke to the citizens.
Most of the humans living on the surface of the planet were affiliated to the Alliance. They were not qualified to be citizens. Of course, there were also some citizens who would manage the humans on the surface of the planet.
Most of the humans on the planet's surface would never have the chance to leave the planet. Not to mention resisting the rule of the Alliance.
Bastion ships had the advantage of superior firepower. This kind of military superiority surpassed that of the surface humans for several generations. The key was still the Star Armor technology. The Alliance that controlled the most powerful Star Armors would never have the chance to resist.
Humans born on the surface generally did not have citizenship. Gao Zhengyang had also obtained the Bronze Star Master Certificate, which allowed him to become a citizen of the Alliance.
The Alliance's society was polarized, but the Alliance had absolute power. Their rule was stable and unshakable.
In this aspect, the Alliance was no different from the Great Qin Empire.
There were more than forty galaxies in the Alliance, and each galaxy had a huge space fortress similar to the Pegasus Space City.
Bastions like these served as living quarters for the citizens, as well as the Alliance's greatest weapon of war.
Gao Zhengyang had heard that the Pegasus Space City was shaped like a pegasus, which was extremely unique. Unfortunately, the flying ship did not have a viewing window. Moreover, from this position, it was impossible to see the entire Galloping Horse City.
Walking out of the cabin door of the Spaceship, Gao Zhengyang did not arrive at the Space City. Instead, he arrived at a huge platform outside the Space City that was used to dock various Spaceships.
When Gao Zhengyang entered the interior of the platform from the pedestrian passageway, he saw huge flying ships taking off and landing outside. It looked very busy.
Inside the space platform, there were hovercrafts that led to all parts of the Pegasus Space City. The hovercrafts glided through the transparent space pipes at a speed of up to eight hundred kilometers per hour. They were the most important means of public transportation in the Space City.
Gao Zhengyang swiped a ticket for Pegasus University Area C, which cost twenty Star Coins. The price was really high.
Fortunately, the hovercrafts were fast enough, and the seats were clean and comfortable. Yes, through the deceleration glass, one could also see the scenery outside.
The Pegasus Space City was not a single entity. It was made up of forty-six space fortresses of different sizes. Therefore, the Pegasus Space City could be built in the shape of a pegasus.
This kind of spliced space city was the most common construction method for large space cities. A one-piece space city would cost too much, and it would not be good for defense.
A spliced space city could be disassembled and dispersed when necessary. Its combat style was more flexible and flexible.
The Pegasus University had a very high status. In the Pegasus Space City, it was second only to the government and the garrison army. The university occupied a space fortress, right in the chest area of the Pegasus Space City. It was also the largest of the forty-six space fortresses.
The Pegasus University was bigger than a city. In terms of area, it was a hundred times the size of the Boar Space Fortress. The population here was about ten million.
According to Gao Zhengyang's understanding, the Pegasus University enrolled about four hundred thousand students every year. The six-year Star Armor University, including the students who continued their studies, had a total of more than three million students.
Other teaching staff, family members, businessmen, and various military research institutions made up the majority of the population.
The Pegasus University had a total of ten departments. Gao Zhengyang was studying in the Star Armor Tactical Theory Department, which belonged to the Literature Department. There were more than ten departments in the department, with many different names. Not many of them were theoretical.
They included things like war psychology, universal philosophy, interstellar history, literature, and other subjects.
Generally speaking, these theoretical departments were mostly female. The strength of a Star Master depended on their mental strength and overall quality. In the profession of Star Master, females were not at a disadvantage.
However, females naturally lacked the courage and toughness of males. This also limited the achievements of females as Star Masters. Generally speaking, strong Star Masters were mostly males.
Gao Zhengyang had nothing to do these few days, so he read a lot of information about the Pegasus University. That was why he had a basic understanding of the place.
Entering the Pegasus University's Area C, he was faced with an open lawn. In front of the lawn was a large artificial lake.
The lake water was clear. There were swans floating leisurely on it.
To be honest, Gao Zhengyang was a little touched. The Wild Boar Fort's internal space arrangement was very tight. Every place was useful. It was too difficult to find an empty space.
A large open lawn like this and a quiet and beautiful artificial lake could only be experienced on the Galactic Web.
The experience on the Galactic Web wasn't bad, but the real world was different from the virtual world.
Gao Zhengyang carried his backpack and sat down on a bench by the lake. Smelling the slightly fishy fresh air, the frustration he felt from being in the sealed cabin for six days was gone.
Passersby would occasionally glance at Gao Zhengyang. After all, judging from the way he dressed, Gao Zhengyang was somewhat different from the people of the Pegasus City.
Fortunately, the basic quality of the people here was very high. No one was rude or talkative.
Gao Zhengyang sat for a while until the sky was a little dark. He then slowly got up and went to find his dormitory.
With the guidance of the smart terminal projection map, it was difficult to get lost.
After walking for forty minutes, Gao Zhengyang arrived at his dormitory. This was a twenty-story building with a simple and modern style. After swiping the smart terminal and getting permission from the optical computer, Gao Zhengyang came to the seventeenth floor.
The other person living in the dormitory hadn't arrived yet. After all, there were still two months before school started. People like Gao Zhengyang who couldn't wait to go to school were the minority. Most of the candidates had worked hard for ten years. After becoming a star teacher, they would choose to indulge for a period of time.
Gao Zhengyang arrived at his room. It was exactly the same as in the virtual reality. Clean and tidy bedding, comfortable bed, ergonomic desk, and a physical bookshelf separated the bedroom from the study. The bathroom was also very clean.
There was a special cleaning robot in charge of cleaning, so there were no problems in terms of hygiene. Of course, the cleaning robot couldn't have an emotional template or be as considerate as Uncle Tong.
University students were all adults. The school couldn't send a high EQ robot to take care of them. This was a special treatment that only minors without parents could receive.
Gao Zhengyang thought of Uncle Tong and felt a bit regretful. Uncle Tong was public property of the school and had no right to leave. The school also didn't have the right to give him public property.
Gao Zhengyang lazily laid on the bed. He didn't purposely think or not think about anything. This kind of lazy state made him feel very good.
Pegasus University could allow him to spend six years in peace. He didn't have to rush to do anything or show off anything.
There was still a lot of time. All he had to do now was to silently farm and accumulate energy while waiting for the right time.
For Gao Zhengyang, the most important thing was to make money. He didn't need to make a lot, but Pegasus City was too big and the expenses were high. Food, clothing, housing, and transportation all needed money.
Fortunately, the principal of the high school rewarded him with ten thousand galactic coins. Otherwise, he would have to borrow money from the Alliance Bank to pay for the transportation expenses.
If he was alone, he could save as much as he could, but he also had a girlfriend.
Tong Ying seemed to be quite rich, but even if Tong Ying was rich, she couldn't spend all her money.
Gao Zhengyang didn't really care about money, but at this age, in this era, with this identity, he didn't need to be too special.
Moreover, this body was still so young. Gao Zhengyang only synchronized his memory and vision. His body was still affected by his hormones.
Gao Zhengyang could forcefully suppress these childish thoughts and impulses, but he didn't think it was necessary. The hot-bloodedness and impulses of youth were the most precious vitality of life. It was also what he needed.
As a Lord God, he was of course young. However, as an intelligent being, Gao Zhengyang had experienced countless dangers and difficulties. His heart had long been tempered and strong enough.
Gao Zhengyang didn't need to temper himself in this aspect. On the contrary, he needed to indulge his youth and hot-bloodedness here. He needed to be more immersed in his identity. He didn't need to be a calm bystander.
What was the point of making money? Raise a girlfriend, eat, drink, and play. Yes, this reason was enough.
These few days, Gao Zhengyang had been thinking about how to earn money the easiest way to do it without making it seem ridiculous.
In fact, the simplest way was to go out and teach physical skills. Star Masters below Gold level needed to use both thought and physical skills to control the Star Armor.
For low-level Star Masters, the Star Armor was their extended limbs. However, this limb was large and slow. To control it well, it required thousands of times of practice.
Among these, physical skills training was very important. A physical skill expert's body would definitely be stronger and more agile. Controlling the Star Armor would be easier.
Gao Zhengyang had done some research. There were hundreds of martial arts dojos in Galloping Horse City. The names of the techniques taught were different, but the content was not much different.
With his understanding of techniques, he was the strongest among all the humanoid and non-humanoid intelligent beings in the universe.
Teaching normal people techniques couldn't be easier.
However, there were many Lord Gods hiding in various places in this universe. Every Lord God wouldn't be polite when they met other Lord Gods. This universe was clearly a grand trial. One less person meant one less competitor. The chances of winning would also increase greatly.
This was a simple principle that every Lord God understood.
Gao Zhengyang was a Body Refinement God Lord. His performance in techniques was eye-catching. It was easy to attract suspicion. Although the Star Region was vast and the chances of dozens of Lord Gods meeting each other in the early stages were almost negligible.
However, Gao Zhengyang didn't think it was necessary to take the risk. It wasn't hard for him to earn money with his abilities.
For example, the top one hundred in this comprehensive exam. Hmm, it was more than enough to be a home tutor.
Everyone in Galloping Horse City was a citizen. However, the citizens might not be Star Masters. It was very expensive to get a child into Galloping Horse University. Compared to adult Star Masters, Star Masters who had just started university were cheaper and taught more seriously. The results of the teaching were also better.
However, being a home tutor was a job that served people. If Gao Zhengyang went out now, he could earn at most one hundred Star Coins an hour. It wasn't a lot, but the class time was limited.
He also had to match the other person's schedule. He wouldn't earn a few thousand a month.
Gao Zhengyang only used this plan as a backup. His current plan was to go to the Galloping Web to earn money.
The Galloping Web was the crystallization of humanity's most advanced technology. Naturally, there were many games on it. Hmm, a full virtual reality game with one hundred percent immersion.
A well-run virtual reality game would usually have billions of players. Because the game wasn't just for the citizens, but also for the locals.
There were too many humans on the surface of the planet. Although the Alliance had absolute power to control all unstable factors. But to appease the locals, most of the Galloping Web games were open to the locals.
With virtual reality games, the locals had other places to use their extra energy. It could also deepen their feelings for the Alliance. Also, the citizens in the game needed enough players to serve as a foil.
Of course, any game could maintain fairness on the surface. Some talented people could even stand out through virtual reality games and be recognized. From there, they could become a citizen of the Alliance and embark on a new path in life.
The Alliance implemented universal education, but the screening was for Star Masters. Those who didn't have the talent to become a Star Master would be eliminated. In fact, the Alliance also needed other talents, such as scientists, writers, thinkers, and so on.
Through the virtual game, they could conduct another round of screening to filter out the talented ones. If they couldn't stand out in virtual reality games, they wouldn't be considered a genius at all.
Gao Zhengyang naturally didn't have much time to play those leveling up games. Those games required a long period of immersion and mastery of all kinds of game knowledge. Being skilled wasn't enough.
The most popular games on the Galloping Web were competitive games, such as the Ultimate Star Armor.
The Ultimate Star Armor had a history of more than a hundred years, but it was still the most popular game on the Galloping Web. Any Galloping Web player, no matter what game they liked, would definitely have played the Ultimate Star Armor.
The reason the game was so lively was because it was a Star Armor game. Moreover, it was the only Star Armor game officially approved by the Alliance.
The Ultimate Star Armor's base model was all real Star Armor. Only after reaching Silver and above would the parameters of the Star Armor change. But the Star Armor with a realistic model only had a 5% difference in data.
When it came to Gold Star Armor, it was all fantasy Star Armor. It was very different from real Gold Star Armor. When it came to Gold, it really became a game.
Above Gold were Diamond, Star Light, and King.
But overall, the King of Star Armors in reality was completely reflected in the Ultimate Star Armor. Although everyone knew that the high-ranking Star Armors were all virtual, they still enjoyed playing them.
Even if they couldn't control such great power in reality, they were satisfied with controlling powerful Star Armors in the game.
The most important difference between the game and reality was that controlling the Star Armor didn't require mental strength. Through the virtual mental strength provided by the game system, any player could control a Star Armor.
Of course, there was also a Star Armor King game that was a complete simulation of reality. This game was a complete simulation of Star Armor, but it was only open to the Silver 8-star level.
Only registered Star Masters in the Alliance were qualified to play Star Armor King. But this game was mainly used by Star Masters to increase combat experience and to communicate with each other. The gameplay was much worse.
Moreover, to play Star Armor King, one had to have a high-level Landing Pod. Only advanced landing capsules had the functions of gathering Astral Power to aid in cultivation.
Gao Zhengyang couldn't afford to play before, but when the Pegasus government gave him a five-star Landing Pod, he would be qualified to play Star Armor King.
Gao Zhengyang had done some research. There were many players on Star Armor King, but very few of them needed someone to train. After all, the purpose of playing Star Armor King was to hone one's skills and increase combat experience. There was no point in looking for someone to train.
On the other hand, Ultimate Star Armor King had all kinds of players. Hence, people could train and play for them. Among them, the good ones could earn a lot.
Gao Zhengyang finally set his eyes on Ultimate Star Armor King. He decided to try it out for ten days. But he wasn't in a hurry to log in. Without a high-level Landing Pod, the experience would be terrible.
He had already informed the Pegasus government to send the Landing Pod to Pegasus University. According to the shipping notice, it would arrive the next morning.
Taking advantage of this time, Gao Zhengyang logged into the Ultimate Star Armor King official website and looked through all kinds of game information. Then, he entered the forum and read many technical discussion posts.
There were also many paid videos. Most of these videos were posted by game streamers. According to the forum, a good game streamer could earn hundreds of thousands of Star Coins a month.
This was a very high income. Generally, even a Silver Star Master might not be able to earn this much. Of course, Silver Star Masters had high social status and all kinds of benefits. This was something that no gaming streamer could compare to.
Gao Zhengyang used to stay in the Wild Boar Fort and could also connect to the Galactic Web, but it was actually limited. Because he was underage, most of the Galactic Web was not open to him. He had no chance to access these entertainment content.
He found a famous game streamer and clicked on it. It was a beautiful girl with big breasts. The girl lay in the Landing Pod and worked hard to control the Star Armor in battle. She even took the time to act cute and flirt with another screen.
Not only did the girl have big breasts, but her Star Armor skills were also very good. Most importantly, she spoke coquettishly. It looked a little vulgar, but it had to be said that it was very interesting.
Every time the girl killed an enemy or told a coquettish joke, she would receive a wave of rewards.
Gao Zhengyang was a little envious. Damn, so much money. Unfortunately, this streamer walked the coquettish and cute path. Although his skills were miles ahead of the girl's, he couldn't learn this.
In fact, there were technical streamers. But it looked rather dull. There were few viewers and even fewer rewards. Compared to the coquettish streamer, they were much worse.
The pathetic state of a technical streamer made Gao Zhengyang feel sad. There was no way to survive purely by playing with skills. It seemed that it was easier to be a substitute player.
Gao Zhengyang studied for most of the day. At night, he ran to the restaurant for dinner.
The restaurant was clean and tidy, even a little warm. There weren't many people eating, and the food was delicious and nutritionally balanced.
After just one meal, Gao Zhengyang was very satisfied with the restaurant. Although it cost some money, it was completely worth it.
After returning to his room, he cultivated for two hours and then rested.
In fact, not only was there a time difference between Galloping Horse City and Wild Boar Fort, but there were also obvious differences in gravity and air.
Only Gao Zhengyang's ability to adjust quickly could he adapt. At 11 pm, although Gao Zhengyang didn't want to rest, he forced himself to sleep soundly.
The next morning, Gao Zhengyang trained and ate. When he returned to the dormitory, the express delivery arrived. The installation staff also arrived.
The five-star Landing Pod was more complicated. It needed to be adjusted, installed, and fixed. The staff busied themselves for an hour before they finished adjusting the Landing Pod.
The Landing Pod was free, but the installation cost money. After Gao Zhengyang spent 300 Star Coins, he regretted it a little. If he knew it was so expensive, he would have installed it himself.
No matter how troublesome the Landing Pod was, it couldn't be more complicated than the Star Armor. He could always install it after some research.
Gao Zhengyang wore comfortable and close-fitting clothes and sat in the five-star landing cabin. The Landing Pod looked like a shuttle, but it was quite spacious inside. The seat was even more comfortable than a bed.
After the Landing Pod was closed, the concentration of Astral Power increased significantly. The projection of the surrounding light screens also allowed the space to stretch out visually, without the slightest bit of suppression.
The invisible magnetic rays guided the Astral Power into Gao Zhengyang's body, which made him feel even more comfortable. The efficiency of cultivation could be increased by at least 10%.
Gao Zhengyang also found a power furnace in the Landing Pod, which meant that if he had Astral Power crystals, he could use the power furnace to inject Astral Power into himself.
The efficiency of such forced infusion was very low. However, as long as he lay in it, he would be able to cultivate day and night. That alone made him feel good.
Of course, the human body had its limits. Astral Power couldn't be absorbed and circulated by pouring in. Astral Power was endless, but the foundation of Astral Power was mental power.
No matter how much Astral Power there was, it would be useless without enough mental power to guide it. Human mental power, on the other hand, could hardly be improved through external forces. Cultivating oneself was the best way to improve one's mental power.
Gao Zhengyang studied the Landing Pod for a while and found that it was very useful, but also had a lot of limitations. It would be a pipe dream if he wanted to cultivate quickly with the Landing Pod. However, with the help of Astral Power, he could log into the Galactic Web for three to five days without any problems.
"The Ultimate Star Armor welcomes you. Please register your ID …"
After Gao Zhengyang entered the Ultimate Star Armor game, the game reminded him to register his ID. He thought for a while and registered as Greedy Wolf.
Such IDs were allowed to be repeated. The only thing that really distinguished him from other players was the numerical ID.
After Gao Zhengyang logged into the game, he skipped the game prompts and chose to enter Extreme Combat mode.
Extreme Combat was the simplest and most popular mode in the game. Simply put, a hundred players would be assigned to a map and fight each other until there was only one winner.
This mode was actually relatively simple, but it was extremely fun to fight with others. The same mode with different players each time would be infinitely more fun.
When the players entered, they wouldn't have any weapons or Star Armor. They would only be able to obtain various weapons and Star Armors when they reached the destination. Luck was more important here, but ultimately, skills were the deciding factor.
Many players gathered in the Landing Pod. When it was time to land, Gao Zhengyang suddenly said loudly, "Everyone, please kill yourself after you land. This will be a better gaming experience for you … "
"Damn it …"
"Idiot …"
None of the players would give in to anyone. They didn't hold back at all.
