Home, living room.
Nangong Wuyue and Y 'zaks stood on either side of Hao Ren like two guardians. Vivian and Lily were busy checking their luggage for the last time. Everyone looked serious, just like the crew of the moon landing.
"I didn't forget anything. Two sets of clothes, biscuits, mineral water, rations, tools..." Vivian was checking Hao Ren's luggage like a responsible new wife (it was actually just a small suitcase, too big things were inconvenient to carry). She checked the places that Lily had already checked. "Send me a message when you arrive at your destination. Doesn't your MDT have this function? Remember to tell me you're safe at any time. Don't touch anything strange, it might be poisonous. Come back as soon as you're done, you're out of town... "
"Alright, alright." Hao Ren looked at the so-called oldest vampire, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Why are you acting like my mother?"
Vivian kicked him. "Don't be a pushover. Do you think ordinary people get this kind of treatment? It's not easy for me to find a place where I can eat my fill. I'm afraid I'll have to worry about food and shelter if you die outside."
Nangong Wuyue blinked as she looked at Hao Ren and Vivian. She felt that this "family" was getting more and more interesting.
"I'm sorry. You've just moved in and you have to go on such a troublesome trip with me." Hao Ren saw that Nangong Wuyue was looking around and thought that the siren was getting impatient. "That's how Raven is. She does whatever she wants. You'll have to work hard this time. She's not usually so busy."
"Oh, oh, it's okay." Nangong Wuyue waved her hand quickly. "I'm happy! I love traveling, seeing new places, new sceneries and stuff. I'll never get tired of it. Speaking of which, I think it was a wise decision to stay here. It's interesting to be with you guys. The people are interesting, the things are interesting too. I can't believe that I can travel more than 800 light years away. No siren would dare to dream of such a thing! "
Well, it seemed that sirens were indeed fond of traveling. Nangong Wuyue was not at all resistant to the sudden troublesome task. It was much easier with this mentality.
"It's 9.30 in the morning. Everything is ready." After the luggage was checked, Lily looked at her watch seriously. "Landlord, have a safe trip! Bring me something delicious when you come back... "
Hao Ren waved at Lily and Vivian. At the same time, he commanded the MDT in his pocket: Begin teleportation.
A dazzling white light enveloped the three of them, and the surrounding space twisted and curled into a shiny sphere. Then the space subsided, and the three of them were gone.
"They're gone," Lily's ears drooped listlessly. "They didn't bring me along."
"There'll be a chance next time," Vivian comforted her. "I'll cook noodles for you at noon... Why do I feel like I'm almost your nanny? Since when did we become so close? "
"Of course, I'm responsible for making money to support you when Landlord is not around!" Lily's tail was about to rise. "Go out and earn money if you can ~ Alright, now you're responsible for feeding the cats. I'm going back to my room to write something..."
Vivian said, "Try being cocky again. Don't forget that I'm the only one who can cook at home! You can't even cook instant noodles! "
"I'm sorry, I'll go feed the cats. But I'm afraid that Rollie will scratch me. Can you watch over me..."
Vivian was speechless.
It would be interesting to see how the two superwomen would spend time together in the absence of their landlord, but after such a long period of time, it was no longer a dangerous problem. Now, it was better to see how the three people who had just been teleported were doing.
When the white light gradually faded, Hao Ren woke up from a slight dizziness. He found himself standing in an unusually wide space, and just as Raven 12345 had said, it was more exciting than anything he had seen in a Hollywood blockbuster.
It was a spacious hall with a radius of 100 meters. It could even be called an indoor square. The hall was oval in shape, and the walls were made of silver hexagonal structures. The hall was divided into two parts. One part was where Hao Ren and the others were standing. The floor was inlaid with neatly arranged rings that emitted bright blue light. Hao Ren was standing in one of the rings. The other part was empty, with several thick silver columns connecting the floor and the vault. The vault of the hall was more than ten meters above the ground. Hao Ren looked up and saw a large number of vein-like blue light flowing slowly on the roof. He had seen this kind of structure in some of the rooms in Raven 12345's mansion. It seemed to be called a "crystallized network", which was used to conduct energy in large facilities.
This was the first scene that Hao Ren saw when he arrived at Kuiper Station.
"Are we... outside of Earth?" Hao Ren could not think of how to describe this place. He could only use "outside of Earth" to refer to Kuiper Station. He jumped on the spot in disbelief. "Why does it feel like we are on Earth? The gravity is the same, the atmosphere is the same, the temperature is the same... Ugh, the air here is fresher than at home."
"Don't be like a bumpkin," the voice of the MDT rang in his mind. "You are an inspector, a civil servant, the sidekick of God, the spokesperson of the Empire. Standing here, you represent the face of a higher civilization. If you keep jumping, I will fall out!"
Hao Ren felt that the last sentence was what the MDT was really thinking.
"The standard environmental parameters of the capital of the Empire are implemented here. After so many years of adjustment and information disturbance, most of the Empire's minions can survive in this environment. A small number of those who can't survive will undergo temporary body modification or carry a small environmental adjustment device before entering the space station," the MDT did not forget its mission and explained patiently as a guide. "It's okay if you don't understand. Think of it this way: This is a subfrigid climate, most people on Earth can withstand it, and those from Africa can bring their own cotton-padded jackets."
"... Easy to understand, speechless."
"Artificial gravity, artificial atmosphere, self-sustaining ecosphere, these are the essentials of a space station," the MDT floated out of Hao Ren's pocket and pointed the arrow forward with a holographic projection. "Although this is just a transit station, it's not a small one. After all, God placed her family's teleportation point on Earth, and this place can be considered as the messenger of heaven. Now, follow the route I show you to leave the teleportation platform. If you stand in this circle, you will occupy the teleportation space. If you walk into someone else's circle, it will increase the burden on the transit host. Although it's not a big problem, as an inspector, you have to lead by example and be civilized. You have a special status here, every word and action is watched. "
The MDT's words made Hao Ren feel a little pressured. He could hear the seriousness in the PDA's tone. "My identity as an inspector … is quite important?"
"How should I put it, yes and no," the MDT replied. "In the eyes of ordinary races, inspectors are a very special group of people. Dependence, respect, rejection, fear, all kinds of views can appear. Sometimes, you will be seen as the savior of the entire race, and sometimes, as soon as you appear, intelligent creatures within a few hundred light years will want you dead. In short, you can encounter any kind of situation. Don't think too much, just do your own thing. At your current level, you won't be able to reach that level. "
Hao Ren nodded as he listened. Wuyue, who was next to him, could not hear the conversation going on in Hao Ren's mind. The siren maiden's eyes were wide open as she looked at the strange silver-white hall in amazement. On the other side, Y 'zaks seemed to be a little better. The big demon's eyes were also a little curious, but apparently, he had seen similar environments before, so he was much more composed than Wuyue when he looked around. The three of them left the 'teleportation platform' on the side of the hall. As Hao Ren was leaving, he noticed that the halos around him would suddenly burst into a stronger light from time to time. Then, the cylindrical space within the halos would distort for a moment, and some blurry images would flash on top of the halos. But in the end, no one was teleported here. He was curious. "What's that?"
"Transit teleportation," the MDT replied. "This is the only relay node between the Dan -Dhuine Civilisation Sphere and the Mosa-Mobko Civilisation Sphere. It's also one of the transit stations to the World Gate. This relay node's function is to reduce the working pressure of the teleportation device and facilitate the management of the space control department. Many passengers are just transit here, as you can see, in a flash. The three of you should be the only batch of passengers that are transiting here today. In fact, this space station is quite deserted. Although it's huge, most of the area is managed by the automated system. There's quite a lot of traffic every day, but basically, it's just transit teleportation and short-term transit, so there's very little staff needed. Don't be surprised if you don't see anyone around later. There's only a few hundred staff in such a big place, and they're all concentrated in the central command tower. "
Hao Ren thought for a moment, and realized that he did not understand a single word...
"Being a writer has really become a high-risk profession... Northern Jadestone, rest in peace. Those who are still working hard on the frontline, including me, please take care of yourself."
