On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

Rift Star once had several artificial wormholes leading to surrounding star systems, but with the economic downturn and the high cost of maintaining the wormholes, they were shut down one after another.

Only one two-way wormhole remains, barely functioning, leading to another Class A planet, Carlo.

He had also seen the information about Carlo Star in the documents.

That was one of the technology centers in this star system, possessing a complete wormhole network that covered more than a dozen surrounding star systems, encompassing short-, medium-, and long-distance routes, and serving civilian, commercial, and military purposes.

There are many destinations to choose from, and the country possesses some of the best shipbuilding technology in the universe.

As long as you have the money, any spaceship you want can be built on Carlo Star.

From Carlo Star, you can transfer to the Dream Star System, and then try to reach Tianxue Star.

This is Ye Han's current thought.

Ye Han silently memorized the route and strode towards the distant city.

The sky over Rift Star was grayish-yellow, and there was a faint, strange smell in the air. The vegetation along the roadside was sparse, consisting mostly of drought-resistant shrubs and withered weeds.

Having just left the Eight Extremes Star, Ye Han was unfamiliar with everything in this universe, so it was best to be cautious.

After walking for a while, a group of people appeared ahead.

A dozen soldiers in uniform, each wearing an identical dark mask with only two narrow slits for the eyes.

Their steps were uniform, their guns were all slung over their right shoulders, and they escorted several people of different skin colors forward.

They are the main force of the Galaxy Eye.

The group, armed with guns, escorted several people of different skin colors to a low-lying area.

"Hey!" A masked soldier in the group turned around and shouted to the captain at the front, his tone filled with barely suppressed pride.

"Captain, let's execute these men here! It'll be good to just bury them!"

The captain said, "Okay, this place is far enough. Let's finish this and head back as soon as possible."

The soldiers all raised their guns and aimed at the men.

Those being escorted had heavy chains on their feet and closed their eyes as if they had resigned themselves to their fate.

The captain stood at the front of the line and raised one hand.

"put!"

Gunshots rang out.

More than a dozen energy beams were fired simultaneously.

Nothing happened, and everyone in custody was fine.

A blue-skinned man opened his eyes and found himself completely unharmed. He couldn't believe he was still alive: "That scared me to death! I thought I was going to see my great-grandmother."

The captain yelled at the masked soldiers, "Hey, what's wrong with you guys? Looking around like that, huh?!"

A masked soldier lowered his head to check his gun: the power bar, the trigger, the safety—everything was normal.

"No, Captain, we were aiming just fine, we don't know why this happened."

"Keep firing," the captain's voice lowered.

"If these men hadn't died, we would have been the ones to die. You know the consequences of not following orders from our superior."

The masked soldiers froze simultaneously.

No one dared to disobey the orders of their leader, Commander Oak.

The consequences of disobeying are worse than death.

"Yes!" a dozen people answered in unison.

The gun was raised again, and the burst fire mode was activated.

The energy beams formed a dense barrage, firing at the prisoners.

Without exception, no bullets ever landed on those people.

The blue-white energy beams all disappeared just before they hit their bodies.

The captain scratched his head, completely baffled.

"Is that so?"

Having served in the military for so many years, this is the first time I've ever seen something so bizarre.

He turned around and yelled at the soldiers behind him, "You bunch of useless trash..."

He stopped mid-sentence.

The soldiers they brought all collapsed to the ground, lying haphazardly.

There was another human in the open space.

A young man dressed in gray clothes appeared out of nowhere and stood among the fallen soldiers, his hands in his pockets.

The captain took a step back, his hand instinctively resting on the holster at his waist, but he didn't draw it.

He wasn't stupid. A dozen fully armed soldiers were all taken down in seconds, and he didn't even see how they did it.

The person in front of me is definitely not an ordinary person.

"Who are you?" The captain tried to remain calm, but his voice trembled uncontrollably. "We are Commander Oak's subordinates! You'd better leave now, or else..."

"It's best to avoid making threatening remarks about a mere soldier."

Ye Han raised his hand and waved it lightly. Before the captain could react, he was sent flying and crashed onto a nearby rock, where he lay motionless.

Those who were tied up realized that they were saved.

"Thank you! Thank you so much! We thought we were going to die this time!"

The others also gathered around to express their gratitude.

Ye Han squatted down and gently pinched the chains on those people's feet with his fingers. The metal clasps crumbled like cookies, leaving clean breaks.

As he untied the chains, he said, "You're welcome. My spaceship crashed on this planet, and I'm penniless. I was wondering if you have any ideas on how to leave this place."

"A solution..." A blue-skinned man in the crowd scratched his head, the two small antennae on his head twitching and swaying gently with the scratching motion.

"There is a way. There is a wormhole in Riften that leads to Carlo. Once you get there, you can go to many places."

As they spoke, the others helped each other to their feet.

They all had some injuries, but they were all superficial and didn't hinder their walking.

One by one, these people thanked Ye Han again and then hurriedly left in the direction of the main road.

Having barely survived, they didn't want to stay here for even a second longer, fearing that Galaxy Eye's reinforcements might arrive at any moment.

Only the blue-skinned man remained standing, watching Ye Han.

"Aren't you leaving?" Ye Han stood up and patted the chain scraps off his hands.

"You saved my life, it's not fair to just leave like this."

The blue-skinned man grinned, revealing a row of gleaming white teeth that contrasted sharply with his blue skin. "My name is Kahn. You asked about how to leave Rift Star. I can tell you you really don't know the ropes here, so I'll stay and explain it to you."

"To use a wormhole, you need 10,000 Yu. You're currently penniless, so it might be difficult."

"Furthermore, the wormhole in Riften only opens once a day, always at noon. It's past noon now, so you probably won't be able to leave today."

Ye Han frowned slightly.

Wan You had a general understanding of the world's monetary system, all of which he learned from Bai Xue.

U-Coin is a universal currency issued by the Interstellar Alliance, with stable credit and universal acceptance throughout the universe.

Ten thousand is neither a lot nor a little.

I used to live on the Eight Extremes Star. I never even saw what money looked like, let alone saved any.

The unexpected expense of 10,000 yen for travel expenses was indeed a problem for him.

However, this problem only troubled him for a moment.

With Galaxy Eye around, you can just borrow money from them.
