BXBX NOVEL Chapter 377: 378, Underground Space_1
Accompanied by Su Yu and Morningstar, Cindy Doppler entered the warehouse, opened a concealed door within its wall, revealing a spiral staircase leading underground.
They descended the staircase and arrived in a massive underground space, accompanied by a cat.
The underground space was approximately 10 meters high and nearly 100 meters deep, roughly the size of a football field.
The entire underground space was akin to a sprawling high-tech exhibit, filled to the brim with various high-tech products.
Cindy Doppler, Su Yu, and Morningstar walked along a narrow path deeper into the underground space as she introduced them:
“The floating cars are displayed in the eastern area of this underground space. Each epoch of floating car per your request is here. From the oldest ‘Solar Type’ to the iconic ‘Lunke Power’ right up to the latest ‘Sky Light’. Each epoch has one.”
Following the direction pointed out by Cindy Doppler, Su Yu saw indeed two rows of floating cars of various colors and shapes in the eastern area of the underground space.
The oldest “Solar Type” floating car was thick with dust, seeming to have been freshly pulled out from a museum storehouse.
Without pausing, Cindy Doppler continued to introduce to Su Yu: “The western area of the underground space holds a row of robots. There are military-grade war robots and supply robots, as well as domestic robots for cooking and chores.”
“These robots, like the floating cars, span multiple eras, including the newest models and those dating back a hundred years. Most of them come with user manuals. Oh, by the way, can you read our Skuru script?”
“I can’t, but she can.” Su Yu patted Morningstar who was resting in his arms.
“Pika Pika!” Morningstar, still in a small mouse-form, squeaked triumphantly.
“That’s good.” Cindy Doppler nodded, continuing to introduce the various products around them.
…
For the next dozen minutes, Doppler explained all the high-tech products in the underground space, using quite some breath.
Beyond floating cars and robots, the underground space also held various types of laser weapons, different era’s communication devices, precise electronic instruments, individual soldier mechs of various materials and specifications, and so forth.
Su Yu was amazed, carefully remembering every word that Cindy Doppler mentioned.
After the introduction, Su Yu and Morningstar made their way to the deepest part of the underground space.
Upon arriving, Cindy Doppler pressed a red button on the wall, and a brown leather box was suddenly ejected from a hidden compartment in the wall.
She handed the box to Su Yu, solemnly stating: “‘Number One’, Your Excellency, in this box is the detailed information on our Skuru Star’s solar energy technology, controllable nuclear fusion technology, anti-gravity technology, and laser technology that you requested. I got them from specialists using a lot of resources, I hope they will be useful to you.”
“On top of this, the box also has some common spiritual practices of the Raging Sun Empire, from first to fourth grades. There aren’t set training methods for the ranks above that since everyone’s area of expertise is different.”
“Thank you!” Su Yu accepted the box surprisingly—it felt quite heavy.
The technical data in the box was mentioned by him a few times in passing, he didn’t expect that Cindy Doppler would manage to provide them!
“Lord Doppler.”, Su Yu looked at him seriously: “The value of these things you’re giving me has far exceeded the value of the precious metals I gave you, isn’t it?”
Su Yu had an understanding of the prices on Skuru Star, the gold and silver he had given wasn’t enough to buy this much.
Leaving aside the priceless technical data in his hand, even the value of the old floating cars and mechas that were clearly taken from a museum in the underground space was quite high.
A rough estimate, his batch of valuable metals at most could buy half of the things here. Cindy Doppler must’ve paid a lot more than that.
However, Cindy Doppler didn’t seem to care much, he just waved his hand, smiling: “Not a problem, it’s our first trade after all, think of it like making new friends. We still have many trading opportunities in the future.”
“Right.” Su Yu agreed and stored the box into his necklace.
Anyway, Su Yu wasn’t someone who like to take advantage, he took out a small ‘space ring’ with an internal dimensional space of about a cubic meter from the necklace and handed it to Cindy Doppler:
“Thank you for giving me all these gifts, Take this one as my return!
This ‘space ring’ was not something he brought from the game but something he crafted out of earth materials in his spare time.”
Su Yu mastered the second-rank Space System spell ‘Creating Spatial Magic Devices’ and could manufacture space rings.
But his understanding of this spell was still quite elementary, currently, could only make small ‘space rings’ and it was also time-consuming. (It took him 8 hours to produce this ring), and so he only made this one, now he thought it can be given to Doppler.
“This is a… ‘space ring’!” Cindy Doppler took the ring, his eyes gleaming.
Although there were ‘Spiritual Masters’ profession on Skuru Star, the completeness of this system was far inferior to the mages of Holy Silver Federation.
The Spiritual Master profession did not touch the field of space and couldn’t make ‘space rings’. Only some students who had been to the Holy Silver Federation on exchange and could redeem some through credits; they were extremely valuable, scarce on Skuru Star!
“Yes, it is a ‘space ring’, I made it and the internal space is about 3 cubic meters.” Su Yu smiled.
“You can make ‘space rings’?” Cindy Doppler was surprised: “‘Space rings’ are very precious on our Skuru Star, one of this size would be worth at least 40,000,000 Solar Yuan, equivalent to a ton of gold. Can anyone else on your Blue Star make them? How much more can you make?”
“Uh, this…” Su Yu was a bit surprised, he didn’t expect ‘space rings’ to be so valuable!
If a simple plaything he made was worth a ton of gold, if he managed to train a batch of professional spatial mages…
After thinking, Su Yu responded: “In the future, Blue Star has the ability to mass-produce ‘space rings’, but that will be only after four months.”
After four months, the powers of most players would materialize, and he could think of a way to train a batch of Spatial System masters for specialized production of space equipment. At that time, small-scale mass production might be possible.
The ‘space rings’ to be produced which could be sold on Skuru Star, the speed of earning money wouldn’t be just ‘making tons of money daily’ any longer!
As for selling ‘space rings’ that could potentially aid their enemies, they could add a ‘backdoor’ to the rings which automatically detonates once certain conditions were met…
“Four months… No problem! We’ll trade again then, I’ll give you all a satisfactory price.” Cindy Doppler’s eyes gleamed with anticipation, compared to the valuable metals of Blue Star, he was much more interested in these ‘space rings’!”
He looked forward to the trade coming sooner.
