Chapter 120 - Meeting Senior Again (1/2)
The four days on the Grey-faced Buzzard was like a form of torture for Gu Ding and Liliath. With their personalities, staying idle on a spaceship was basically no different from being locked up.
Robert tinkered with things throughout each day in his own room without idling for even a single moment. On the other hand, Biggie kept himself busy in the kitchen, creating new and colorful dishes for each meal, giving Gu Ding and Liliath great culinary satisfaction. When Biggie was not preparing dishes, he could be found looking up all sorts of recipes and spending his time incomparably productively.
To kill time, Gu Ding had Neptune adjust his room to twice the usual force of gravity. Under such circumstances, he used the seventh tier Ultimate Arts to push his body’s limits and strengthen his body’s cells. Four days down the line, Gu Ding managed to increase his Cell Index slightly to 320 points.
On the other hand, Liliath spent her time entering the Virtual Arena’s Intermediate-level stage to train her combat techniques.
After the four days of torture finally passed, the Grey-faced Buzzard Model safely arrived at Mayor Sector’s Great Divinity based on the route that had been established.
The Great Divinity was the largest habitable planet in the entire Mayor Sector, and it was also the most bustling planet in all of Mayor Sector. The planet’s population made up one-thirtieth of the Mayor Sector’s total population. It has to be said that Mayor Sector had five hundred or more planets that were inhabited by humans. Therefore, that was the reason why the planet had been chosen as the location of the large-scale auction.
When the spaceship stopped at the port of Great Divinity, Gu Ding’s Grey-faced Buzzard attracted the side-eyes of several people. Such first-generation antiques were flown by very few people. Of those who had come to attend the auction this time, quite a few had discerning eyes and were very interested in Gu Dign’s Grey-faced Buzzard.
In contrast, the Interstellar Pirates did not care too much about the value of the spaceship. They cared more about the fact that the arrival of that type of Grey-faced Buzzard Model meant that Gu Ding and his team had arrived at Great Divinity.
The moment the Grey-faced Buzzard stopped, Neptune rushed to tell Gu Ding, “There are many people from the Army around us. They were probably hired to maintain public order by the lord of this star sector. Seems like quite a few valuable things will be among the auctioned items in the auction.”
Gu Ding knocked on the door that led to Robert’s room. “Robert, we’ve reached Great Divinity. Do you want to go and walk around together?”
“Hold on, I’ll give you a copy of a checklist of materials I need. If you see those materials, help me buy them. I won’t be going out, but you guys have fun.” After a short while, Robert sent the checklist straight to Neptune. Robert had not opened the door to his room throughout the entire conversation, and Gu Ding did not know what exactly it was that he was busy with.
Although Biggie was obsessed with the kitchen and his recipes, he knew how to enjoy the food of different districts. Hence, he followed Gu Ding and Liliath as they left the Grey-faced Buzzard.
After leaving the spaceship, the constraint Gu Ding and Liliath had felt from being “locked up” for the past few days was finally erased.
The arrival of the trio attracted the attention of members of the Army as well as a few Interstellar Pirates at the port. Being the latest rising newcomer, Gu Ding’s exposure rate was relatively high. In addition to that, with Biggie’s video that had been uploaded, it was hard for people not to recognize his team.
Not long after the trio had started walking, their path was blocked by someone.
A big and tall male confronted them. However, this time, the person looked different compared to the last time they met him on Constlac. This time, the other party was wearing an army uniform.
“It has been a few days since we met, Gu Ding,” the other party said pleasantly in a seemingly-casual manner. “Your team’s recent exposure rate is quite high.”
