The moment Bai Jing left the Martial Artist Association, a luxurious Flying Shuttle landed.
If a taxi Flying Shuttle was like a regular taxi,
Then the Flying Shuttle that just landed was the Rolls-Royce of Flying Shuttles.
Its streamlined body, coupled with two heavy weapons on either side resembling Vulcan cannons from his previous life, hinted at its extraordinary nature even without seeing the interior.
"It's even equipped with weapons, this..."
On Chuniao Star, cold weapons were acceptable, but hot weapons were strictly forbidden.
Especially heavy military weapons.
Bai Jing was certain that the machine guns, which looked like Vulcan cannons, were at least electromagnetic cannons, or possibly even psionic or dark energy cannons.
If one of those hit him, let alone a small skin-Cultivating Martial Artist like him,
Even a third-Rank Martial Artist with Perfection of their internal organs would likely be severely injured from a direct hit.
He was about to step aside.
This thing clearly indicated the arrival of a big shot.
He couldn't expect these Alliance members, who could produce test-tube babies, to be people of high moral character.
Just then,
As the cockpit hatch flickered twice and then disappeared,
A young man in a suit, in his early twenties, stepped out of the Flying Shuttle.
The young man's objective was clear; he quickly walked a few steps directly towards Bai Jing's location.
Bai Jing: ???
Was a cliché dramatic plot about to unfold?
Clearly, the other party wasn't looking for trouble; in fact, quite the opposite.
"Mr. Bai Jing, everything is ready here. We can depart for Chuying Zone at any time?"
"You're here to pick me up?"
Bai Jing could hardly believe his ears.
A twenty-meter luxurious armed Flying Shuttle, coming to pick up an ordinary Martial Artist?
"Yes, Mr. Bai Jing!"
The other party's attitude was very humble, clearly very well-trained.
After a moment, Bai Jing finally accepted this fact.
"Then let's go now."
As he spoke, he had already walked to the hatch. The driver, who was responsible for the Flying Shuttle, stepped forward to help open the hatch, settled Bai Jing into the Flying Shuttle, and then returned to the cockpit.
Upon entering the Flying Shuttle,
One could only say that the interior was simply a luxurious residence.
All sorts of furniture and appliances were available.
Even the refrigerator, besides sugary drinks, contained many Advanced beverages and Advanced nutrient solutions.
Sitting on the sofa made of unknown star beast leather, Bai Jing still felt a sense of unreality about this treatment.
He doubted even a second-Rank citizen would experience this!
As a well-established Alliance Empire that had developed for over ten thousand years,
It had long ago divided people into different Ranks.
Outwardly, this was called Citizen Rank.
First-Rank citizens were almost all ordinary people, test-tube babies, enjoying basic guaranteed treatment.
Second-Rank citizens had certain privileges and could enjoy treatment that ordinary people could not.
Third-Rank citizens, at the very least, were local directors, receiving not only high-grade resource subsidies each month and exclusive Flying Shuttles for travel, but also private armed escorts.
As for higher Ranks, Bai Jing was not aware.
Because he had never seen or heard of them.
Of course, higher-Rank citizens definitely existed, but cannon fodder like him simply couldn't access them.
"Mr. Bai Jing, we provide food and drinks for this journey. The trip will take approximately 1 hour and 13 minutes. If you have any questions during this time, please feel free to call us."
A sweet female voice slowly sounded.
"Okay, I understand."
"We wish you a pleasant journey!"
Even Bai Jing was somewhat looking forward to what Chuying Zone was like.
In the basic settlement area,
The technology there was only passable; compared to before his Transmigration, it probably wasn't much stronger, not resembling an interstellar civilization.
But now it seemed,
The settlement area was the lowest-tier configuration.
It was only meant to ensure that the test-tube babies didn't starve or encounter accidents.
As for cutting-edge technological products, only those second and third-Rank citizens could enjoy them.
Bai Jing originally intended to use the Martial Artist Inner Net to first claim the Flesh-Refining Cultivation Technique and choose a combat skill.
But before he could act,
The communicator, which he had almost forgotten, suddenly vibrated slightly.
Upon taking it out, he saw a communication request.
Looking at the caller ID, Bai Jing's lips curled up, and he chose to connect.
Almost simultaneously,
That loud voice from his memory appeared.
Qi Dachun: "Jingzi, I can't take it anymore. If this continues, I'm afraid I'll break down before I even get to the battlefield..."
On the screen, a young man with a square, national character-shaped face looked noticeably pale, his lips cracked.
It was clear he had been working hard for the past half-month.
"Something's not right, twelve parts out of ten not right!"
"Which luxury private room is this?"
As fellow test-tube babies, he could draw what the settlement housing looked like with his eyes closed.
This room clearly wasn't settlement housing.
And the settlement area actually didn't have many entertainment options, nor would the houses be particularly luxurious, because everyone here was a poor test-tube baby.
Only the alien girls were snatched.
There were plenty in the Universe, otherwise...
"You, you, you..."
As he thought, a look of disbelief appeared on Qi Dachun's national character-shaped face, and he even stammered a little.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to pressure you, but since you guessed it, let me show you the beautiful scenery in the sky!"
Bai Jing just felt great.
Half a month of arduous Cultivation, wasn't it all for this moment?
Not working hard, huh? Playing with alien girls, huh?
When we meet again, you'll have to call me 'Sir'!!!
"Mr. Bai Jing, the hatch has been opened for you, and the energy shield has been activated!"
As the sweet female voice sounded, even the sofa was pushed out of the hatch, allowing Bai Jing to directly overlook the scenery below from high in the sky.
Looking down from high above, rows and rows of settlement areas.
It really had the feel of a steel jungle.
The national character-shaped face in the projection had already opened his mouth wide, unable to speak.
"No, what the hell... holy crap, I... you actually... succeeded in Cultivating?"
For a moment, Qi Dachun seemed to lose his ability to speak, stammering directly.
Looking at the rows of settlement houses below, he let out a wail.
"You bastard! Get down here, don't make me beg on my knees!!"
"I can't live without you! The settlement area without you is like a club without alien girls!"
"You bastard!!"
Seeing Qi Dachun's expression, as if saying, 'How could you become a Martial Artist? This is worse than killing me.'
Bai Jing felt it was enough.
"Alright, what are you howling about? When we go to the battlefield, I'll give you a hand."
Bai Jing didn't know if he could, only that he would try his best.
Regardless, in his memory, he and this kid had literally grown up together, from childhood.
If he could help, he would.
"Thank you, adoptive father, I'll kowtow to you right now!"
Saying that, he pressed the communicator and tapped his head on the ground.
"Alright, alright, we're buddies and all, but from now on, I'm your dad, and you're no longer an orphan without parents!!!"
As soon as these words came out,
Qi Dachun, who was about to kowtow, silently raised his middle finger.
"Adoptive father isn't enough; you actually want to be my biological father, get out!"
As their bickering ended,
Bai Jing's tone also became serious.
"You still have half a month; Cultivate well. An extra bit of strength means an extra bit of security on the battlefield."
This good brother was quite capable; he was progressing much faster than Bai Jing used to.
If he had the assistance of high-end energy, he might even be able to make a breakthrough.
"Okay, I understand. Have a safe journey, see you in half a month."
Qi Dachun put away his playful demeanor and replied.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Jing looked at the high-end nutrient solutions in the refrigerator.
"I'm just saying, these nutrient solutions are all mine, right?"
"Help me send them to the guy I just spoke with."
Just as Bai Jing had guessed, the sweet female voice readily agreed.
"Yes, sir, we have already arranged for someone to deliver them to him."
People like them were all like suicide squad members; having a small privilege at this time was allowed.
Of course, you couldn't go too far.
