Soul Mechanic [Interstellar] - Chapter 109
[Strange Spaceship Entrance]
On the locator, the bright spot representing Mr. Maggie has not disappeared, but the direction is a little strange, as if it is underground.
They booked a humble hotel nearby, ate some food, and washed it.
Although Chu Qingtian didn’t care, Mu Qiu took out the treatment device and scanned the wound on his hand again.
The four people pretended to be outsiders who came to Gemini for the first time, ready to go out and have a good time.
The innkeeper also specially recommended several good places for them, including the entertainment street in the underground city.
The four of them exchanged faintly with their eyes—there is their goal tonight.
“Hey, buddy, let me inquire with you-are there any rules in the dungeon that we outsiders don’t know?” Chu Qingtian tried to get close to the boss in the unique accent of Gemini.
I have to say that this trick works pretty well.
The boss with huge gem cufflinks looked like a person coming over, and he smiled and reminded: “There are not many rules, just play-there is only one place. If no one is leading it, don’t go in.”
Chu Qingtian pretended to be curious, approached the boss, with a somewhat flattering tone, “Which place? You give it a bottom line, we just want to have a good night, but don’t want to touch the taboos of big people.”
The boss drooped his eyelids, glanced at his hand, and said with a smile: “This… but good material.”
Chu Qingtian subconsciously turned the ring on his middle finger, and then took out an egg-sized amethyst from the space button and put it on the table with a smile.
The boss immediately showed a pleasing smile on his face, and skillfully took out an electronic board with a dungeon browsing map from under the counter, and drew a circle at a certain position without even looking at it—obviously he had already done this set of actions. Countless times.
Chu Qingtian took the electronic board, smiled at the boss, and took the other three out of the hotel.
Mu Qiu didn’t show a funny expression until he left the door.
He approached Chu Qingtian, poked his ring hand, and said dissatisfiedly: “I did this with great effort. He didn’t think the beautiful shape was of great significance, so he noticed the material?”
Chu Qingtian slapped his head and said with a smile: “I know it will do.”
Mu Qiu originally wanted to curl his lips, but couldn’t help but smile.
Behind him, Simon raised his hand subconsciously and looked at his empty fingers.
Lu Xun noticed his movements, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.
——
Many planets with concentrated crowds will build dungeons.
The dungeons in different places have different styles.
The underground city of the Imperial Capital is a trading center and a shopping paradise; the underground city of the Treeren planet is used for labor and scientific research personnel to live, in order to maximize the protection of the surface plants.
The underground city of Tianlong Gemini can be said to be a paradise for tourists-here, all buildings and all services are for entertainment.
Walking on the streets of the dungeon, loud music hits the eardrums, dazzled lights are everywhere, and men and women with rich makeup are **** and bold.
Mu Qiu had the attitude of acting with a full set of acting, and responded professionally to the provocative eyes of the street ladies, but Chu Qingtian broke the agreement and tightly hooked the person into his arms.
Lu Xun also pressed the corners of his mouth tightly, and pulled the guide who was looking around curiously to his side, covering his eyes.
“Well, I can’t see anything like this…” Simon broke Lu Xun’s finger with an innocent expression.
“I will support you, don’t need to look.” Lu Xun said calmly.
Mu Qiu chuckled, watching a friend’s joke, “Vice team, just to prevent you from seeing it.”
Simon recollected and smiled, then let Lu Xun obediently pull it.
The four people talked and laughed on the surface, but in fact they kept paying attention to the instructions of the locator.
Chu Qingtian expected that he was right. The location of Mr. Maggie was exactly the “can’t go” place marked on the electronic board.
The four people stopped in front of a dark building and looked at the closed storefront as if curiously.
Mu Qiu glanced around, the whole street, only here was dimly lit, and the door could be quite different.
Seeing Mr. Maggie right in front of him, Simon was a little anxious. He stepped forward, but was stopped by Lu Xun, “Be careful, there is a laser net.”
As he said, he picked up a piece of gravel and threw it over.
Not surprisingly, the stone seemed to be blocked by something, hanging in the air, and then silently turning into powder.
From the point of contact, a light web slowly emerged like water waves, emitting crackling sparks.
Mu Qiu subconsciously held Simon’s hand, afraid for a while.
After the light net, the dark door is still tightly closed, which shows that he is very confident in this arrangement.
Mu Qiu looked a little angry, “Isn’t this too serious about human life? If someone accidentally ran into it, wouldn’t it be a waste of life?”
The faces of the other three were not pretty.
Chu Qingtian clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, “Look and see if there is any other entrance.”
“Behind this door, is it the real entrance?” Lu Xun pointed to a narrow door next to him and said.
Simon raised the map, compared it, and said in doubt, “This door is not marked on the map.”
Chu Qingtian smiled, “That’s right-it just means something weird.”
Fortunately, there was no mechanism at the narrow gate, and the four people opened the door smoothly and entered a long alley.
Mu Qiu looked at the long bluestone road at his feet, inexplicably thinking of the blooming flower wall outside Major General Wolfe and Mr. Maggie, and couldn’t help sighing softly.
“Don’t be afraid.” Chu Qingtian took the guide’s hand and calmed down softly.
Mu Qiu curled his lips and retorted in a low voice, “I’m not afraid.”
Surprisingly, the alley was not as quiet as they thought.
On both sides of the wall, standing in twos and threes, most of them were half-aged teenagers. They looked thin and thin, but they did not look like beggars. The federal government did not allow beggars to exist.
The four people consciously stood in a quadrilateral shape, and Chu Qingtian and Lu Xun secretly warned from the diagonal position.
In this way, they maintained a certain pace and slowly entered the depths.
After walking about two hundred meters, a corner appeared in front, and a light came through faintly.
Chu Qingtian paused and made a stop gesture.
He let go of Mu Qiu’s hand, took a few steps forward tentatively, and then he couldn’t help but stunned.
“What’s the matter?” Mu Qiu asked in a low voice.
Chu Qingtian waved at them.
The three people followed. Then, after seeing the scene there, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Around the corner, it looks like two worlds.
The front is bright, noisy, and bustling.
Behind, dim, silent, and rundown.
I don’t know what the principle is, but it separates the light from the sound so clearly.
While Mu Qiu sighed, he was also learning from Chu Qingtian and Lu Xun, observing secretly.
He found that there was an open door in front, and the golden door frame was shining brightly under the light.
Five big and three rough-looking “doormen” stood in a row, collecting passes for those entering the door one by one, and carefully inspected them.
Moreover, this door has no entrance but no exit.
The four men returned to the darkness again.
Chu Qingtian looked sharply at the wall not far away.
They had discovered it a long time ago, and since entering the alley, someone has quietly followed them.
I don’t know if the stalker’s technology is not at home, or if they deliberately let them discover it-in short, even the two guides are aware of it.
At this moment, the four of them looked at the thin figure by the wall at the same time, and none of them spoke.
The man didn’t seem to be frightened, but two steps forward and appeared in the dim light.
He looked at Chu Qingtian with bright black eyes, and asked seriously, “Do you want to go in?”
After seeing each other’s looks, the four of them couldn’t help being a little surprised-this one in front of them was the boy during the day.
At this moment, what he stepped on was the gravity board that Chu Qingtian had given him. The boy’s body was very stable and never swayed again.
Seeing that Chu Qingtian didn’t speak, the boy spoke again: “If you want to go in, I have a way – don’t worry, you saved my life, and I won’t harm you.”
Chu Qingtian’s spirit stretched, and he raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.
Don’t forget, they drank the fusion potion now, and they looked completely different from the daytime.
“I saved your life?” Chu Qingtian smiled, but his expression was not nervous, “Did you admit the wrong person?”
The boy shook his head and said seriously: “I don’t know how you changed your appearance, but I can recognize him—”
The boy pointed to Simon, and said with some doubts, “When I see him, my head doesn’t hurt so much.”
Chu Qingtian and Lu Xun looked at each other, faintly guessing in their hearts.
Mu Qiu also said with some surprise, “Could it be…”
Simon simply stretched out his mental tentacles and tentatively placed it on the boy’s forehead.
Lu Xun’s expression is really not good.
The young man showed an expression of enjoyment.
Simon retracted his tentacles and nodded, “It should be, but he hasn’t awakened yet.”
Mu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief-as long as it wasn’t something wrong with their fusion potion.
Chu Qingtian pondered for a moment, and then suddenly asked, “You just said, can you take us in?”
The boy nodded without hesitation.
“Can you get that pass?” Chu Qingtian pointed towards the corner.
The boy shook his head, looking embarrassed, “No, that’s difficult, even our boss won’t work… But I can take you in through other doors-no tickets are needed.”
“Ticket?” Lu Xun caught this crucial word.
The teenager is obviously very smart, and he immediately understood their doubts.
He quickly explained: “The’pass’ in their hands is actually a ticket to enter the K44 spacecraft.”
“If I remember correctly, the K44 spacecraft is openly selling tickets to the entire Federation, and it doesn’t need to be so… troublesome.” Chu Qingtian looked at the young man’s eyes and said.
The boy nodded and said clearly: “That’s right, but that is for ordinary passengers. In fact, the K44 spacecraft is divided into upper and lower floors. Our boss said that there are’good things’ on the upper floor, and many are rich. Everyone wants to go in and take a look. If you have enough money to buy it and go home, you will have more face.”
The four of them had their own thoughts after hearing the words.
