Chapter 9 Idealistic Civilization

  After leaving the VIP room, Li Wenyuan fell into a short thought.

  The resources needed to repair the "fourth-level singularity" are only short of Zelo, but it is this 1 Kezelo, but it seems that his progress is stuck, and he can only hope and sigh.

  Even a global company like Cribri couldn't get Zelo, and he couldn't figure out how to get it for a while.

   Seeing that there was no hope of restoration, he had no choice but to control the synthetic man to search for visitors from the "idealist civilization" in the trading station.

  Because according to Brenning, Zello is only produced by these idealists.

   "But having said that, there will be idealistic civilizations in this future world that will develop into the interstellar age?" Li Wenyuan didn't believe it. The education he received in his previous life made him maintain a materialistic worldview.

  He believes that the so-called "ideal civilization" is only a nominal existence, but in fact they still follow the scientific path.

  But the moment he held this thought, a voice suddenly sounded beside the synthesizer:

   "We are indeed materialistic to a certain extent, but our materialism, in your opinion, is just the soliloquy of a group of lunatics."

  The sudden sound startled Li Wenyuan in the virtual world. After looking around, he saw nothing.

   "I'm here, your mechanical eyes should be repaired, can't you see it up close?"

  At this time, Li Wenyuan noticed that there was a small "fairy" floating in this synthetic human's chest.

  She seemed to be floating at first glance, but the artificial eyes of the synthetic human flickered slightly, and it was clear that she actually had two pairs of dragonfly-like wings flapping rapidly behind her.

  The high frequency even makes it difficult for the naked eye to detect, but to the eyes of the machine, it is just a frame-by-frame slow motion.

  As for why she is said to be like a "fairy", it is because Li Wenyuan really thinks that she is very similar to the fairy in the Western fantasy movies of her previous life, flying among the flowers.

   What surprised him the most was the "fairy" in front of him, who was also very similar to a "human" in terms of body shape and appearance.

   This is the second "human-like creature" that Li Wenyuan has seen after Lilian. This kind of surprise, like "meeting an old friend in a foreign land", even made him forget for a while how this "fairy" caught his attention.

  Seeing this "goblin" alien frowned, he said curiously:

"Are you really an omnic, not a half-reformed prosthetic? I thought that only organic life could be detected by psionic signals, but I didn't expect that an omnic could also be detected. .”

   "It's really a good discovery. It seems that the 'mind theory' in our textbooks needs to be questioned."

  Hearing what she said, Li Wenyuan suddenly realized that this goblin... seems to be able to spy on his thoughts?

What's happening here? Is it magic? Or some unknown technology?

  As soon as this idea came up, he unconsciously became on guard. The synthetic man's cold eyes analyzed the body structure of the goblin, and at the same time added a new species to the biological illustrated book that hadn't been updated for a long time.

   "Oh..." Seeing that the goblin suddenly became regretful, he said with regret on his face, "Why did you become alert all of a sudden? If so, I won't be able to continue reading the spiritual signal?"

   "Why don't I pay you to chat with me for a while and give me more materials for my graduation thesis?"

  Although the goblin's expression was sincere, Li Wenyuan at this time had no intention of staying any longer, and disappeared into the crowd in a flash.

   And the goblin seemed quite a pity after he left, as if he had missed a great discovery of a century.

   "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't remind him, so I can study it for a while..."

"But who can resist the temptation to communicate with a 'mind-holding machine'? Alas, I hope to meet more similar ones in the future..." The goblin flew past the crowd unsteadily, and everyone seemed to see a scourge Generally, they disperse in fear of avoiding it.

  The goblin also disappeared into the eyes of the crowd as usual. It wasn't until she left that someone in the crowd whispered:

   "If I'm not mistaken, they seem to be people from the idealistic civilization - the Court of Faris? The last time I saw them seemed to be at a 'Science Exchange Meeting'..."

   "Shh... It is said that the scientific exchange meeting broke up badly. No one knows what exactly happened, but after that, this group of idealists hardly communicated with the outside world and rarely showed up in the interstellar world..."

   "Although this is the case, almost all idealistic civilizations are under the protection of the 'Watcher', and there are not many conflicts."

   "But aren't they just a bunch of talking lunatics? Let's stay away to avoid being infected..."

  …

   Li Wenyuan didn't know anything about what happened after he left. He just hurriedly completed the deal with Corey, and then started the spaceship to go back.

  Encountering the "fairy" made him realize that there are many dangers in this interstellar world that he hadn't thought of. He thought that with the high level of protection of synthetic humans, "information leakage" would not be possible.

  But he didn't expect that Idealistic Civilization would directly hit him hard, and read his thoughts by means of technology, which was unheard of for him.

   "I have to go back quickly. The interstellar water is too deep, and I can't grasp it. I will come to the interstellar stage to learn more when I have the strength."

   After checking the cargo and confirming that there were no problems, Li Wenyuan pulled a ship of reinforced alloys and a "level three energy core" stored in a special container, and started the spacecraft.

   While he was leaving the star port, the bear-shaped alien who was waiting for good news in the security room received the news that the pirate spaceship had left.

  He was taken aback for a moment, and then flew into a rage, as if he couldn't imagine that someone would dare to ignore his threats and walk away without paying the guarantee fee.

  So he quickly opened the communication with his subordinates, and at the same time contacted his colleagues working in the trade department, wanting to know how much the trade volume of this pirate spaceship was on the exchange.

  He has already made up his mind that he will charge 95% of the guarantee fee this time, otherwise he will never let the ship leave.

   "Hello? Hairy beard? It's me. I have something like this... Yes, help me find out. It's really a bunch of ignorant guys, let them understand who is the boss here!"

  The person on the other side of the communication equipment responded immediately, but after a while, he asked in a subtle tone:

   "Bear...Are you sure you really want to collect taxes from this family?"

   "Of course! Otherwise, where will I put my face? Will a group of new pirates still grow?" Mao Xiong still spoke indifferently, as if he was not afraid of anything.

  Mao Huzi was silent for a while, and then continued: "That's it, you are awesome. The transaction volume of this company is 22.5 billion energy coins. I have never seen such a transaction volume in a border galaxy like ours."

   "It's only 22—how much!?" Mao Xiong, who was still leisurely in the guard room, stood up suddenly, his four eyes, which were always full of greed, were already full of astonishment.

"22.5 billion~ You usually get 30% of it, right? Since this company has offended you, you will at least get 50% of it, right? Tsk tsk, it's more than 10 billion, remember to help my brother when you have time~" Mao Huzi teased, as if I have already seen the appearance of Mao Bear's catastrophe.

   And Mao Xiong was already covered in cold sweat at this time, trembling suddenly, and then shouted at the communication device on the other side:

   "Get back to me! No one is allowed to leave the port! I will throw anyone who dares to leave the port into the stellar furnace!"

   Those subordinates who were gearing up to arrest the "wanted criminal" were taken aback by his yelling, and then immediately stayed in the star port obediently.

   "Isn't it awesome? How do you usually educate those pirates? 'You won't get far in this matter, and you will fall down sooner or later'? This time you also kicked the iron board, right?"

  Mao Bear's gloating voice still echoed in Mao Xiong's ears, but at this moment he hadn't noticed it, but was pacing around the security room quickly, thinking about how to remedy it.

   His monthly salary as the "Captain of the Security Brigade" is not even used in energy coins, but an electronic currency that circulates within Corebo.

  Energy coins are only used in interstellar transactions, but even for this, 1 energy coin is already a sky-high price in the eyes of ordinary people, and even Mao Xiong's own annual income cannot buy 1 energy coin.

   Fortunately, he has a special position, serving as the captain of the guard in this trade enclave, and has the opportunity to secretly collect taxes from those "unlicensed spaceships".

   And here, the most indispensable thing is the unlicensed spaceship.

  This is a trading post in name, but it is actually a place for a group of interstellar explorers to trade and supply. The trading partners of Cribb are generally also for them.

   This group of crazy explorers will never even return to their home planet for a lifetime, and their spacecraft often cannot update their electronic signatures, so they are regarded as unlicensed spacecraft.

  Mao Xiong also received an extra one or two hundred energy coins a year by collecting taxes. The amount may seem small, but it is enough for him to buy dozens of buildings in the name of others on his home planet.

  But now this kind of trade volume as high as tens of billions...Give him ten thousand guts, he would not dare to touch it.

  So while notifying his subordinates to reopen the star port to **** a "pirate spaceship", he sent an email to the previous group of people, wanting to try to rescue and admit their mistakes.

   While Li Wenyuan was in control of the spacecraft and was about to start the hyperspace engine to go to the next galaxy, he received an email.

   Seeing the guard whose signature came from here, he threw it directly into the recycling bin.

  He is not in the mood to argue with such a small person now, he just wants to go home quickly.

  If you want to collect taxes, you can do it casually. Anyway, Li Wenyuan deposited all the energy coins with Kribo. He didn't believe that the alien who looked like the "captain of security" dared to touch such a number of energy coins.

   What's more, the "Guardian Civilization" he represents has already received the key care of Keruibo, so it's not bad if he didn't go to the "Captain of Security" to settle accounts.

  As soon as the hyperspace engine was activated, Li Wenyuan's spacecraft disappeared without a trace from the galaxy.
