Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 99 Contribution

Having resolved the issues with the spaceship's intelligence, Yang Wu finally had time to examine the spaceship's owner's belongings.

"Master!" Chi Yan's voice echoed in Yang Wu's mind: "The original owner of this spaceship was quite a big shot in the Milky Way. His belongings must be valuable, Master, you should check them quickly!"

Yang Wu smiled and nodded.

In the original story, the spaceship's original owner's belongings seemed to disappear after Luo Feng took them. However, before the Nolan Mountain family fleet arrived on Earth, Luo Feng sold the spaceship and purchased a survival base.

In other words, the combined value of all the other relics should not be comparable to that of this spaceship.

Luo Feng had already acquired Hu Yanbo's first inheritance, so naturally he didn't care about these relics anymore.

However, Yang Wu cared a lot about it.

After all, unlike Babata, he doesn't have a lot of Qianwu coins; he doesn't have a single coin of the universe's currency. Even if he could go on an adventure in space, he probably couldn't even afford the parking fees for his spaceship.

The original owner of the Black Dragon spaceship left behind very few belongings. Apart from a few robots, there was only a ring, a piece of close-fitting armor, and a sharp short sword on the ground.

Yang Wu first picked up the short sword and examined it in his hand.

"Master!" Chi Yan said in Yang Wu's mind, "This is an extremely ordinary second-tier Force weapon, the Crescent Moon Sword. Its power is not even comparable to your Fire Dragon Spear."

Yang Wu nodded slightly, then picked up the remaining spatial ring.

It's quite normal for this person to be able to travel in an expensive spaceship made of pure metal, have silver-clad bodyguards as bodyguards, and possess a small storage ring.

The ring is entirely silver-gray, with a lifelike black dragon engraved on it, making it look extremely exquisite.

Unfortunately, when Yang Wu infused his spiritual imprint into the ring, he discovered that the space inside the ring was not very large.

The space inside the ring is roughly a cube, with a length, width, and height of only about three meters, totaling less than 30 cubic meters. This is vastly different from the space ring that Yang Wu obtained from Hong.

The spatial ring contained quite a few items: a small pile of energy crystals, each labeled with its model number in the universal language; a small amount of wood crystals, about twenty pieces; a small amount of banknotes and coins; and other miscellaneous items.

However, the owner of the spatial ring has been dead for nearly a million years, and most of the items inside the ring have been damaged over time due to lack of maintenance.

The energy inside the energy crystal is almost depleted, the life force contained within the Wood Crystal has dissipated, most of the banknotes have decayed, and only some coins remain, which can still be used with difficulty.

Yang Wu transferred all the items in his spatial ring to his own spatial ring, and then casually put the spatial ring into the pocket that the Black God Suit had transformed into.

He planned to give this spatial ring as a gift to his younger brother, Yang Fan.

After consuming the plant spirits that Yang Wu brought home, Yang Fan unexpectedly awakened the ability of a mentalist. Although he is still only an apprentice, he is already able to recognize the spatial ring as his master.

"Master!" Just as Yang Wu was pondering, Chi Yan's voice suddenly rang out.

"What is it?" Yang Wu asked directly.

"I just inspected the damage to this spaceship. With my abilities, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to repair it without sufficient energy!" Chi Yan said slowly.

"What?" Yang Wu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"In the end, there was no escaping it!" Yang Wu sighed as he stood in the spaceship's control room.

To repair the spaceship, cooperation with Babata is still unavoidable.

But then, they wouldn't know if the spaceship would still belong to them.

However, Yang Wu quickly adjusted his mindset. At least, he could successfully travel to space, right?

Yang Wu then stepped out of the spaceship and stored the entire vessel inside his spatial ring. This, of course, reduced the space within his ring by more than half.

As for the giant mothership outside, Yang Wu's spatial ring simply couldn't hold it.

After leaving the mothership, Yang Wu rushed out of the sea and boarded his intelligent fighter jet, flying rapidly towards the Jiangnan Base City.

"We still need to cooperate with Babata and ask them to repair this Black Dragon Mountain X81 model adventurer ship."

Yang Wu sat in the comfortable seat inside the intelligent fighter jet and began to slowly consider how to cooperate with Babata.

……

Retrieving the spaceship didn't take Yang Wu too much time. He returned home just in time for lunch.

After lunch, Yang Wu went directly to Luo Feng's house, which was not far from his own.

Luo Feng was currently in seclusion at home, cultivating and striving to improve himself.

After Luo Feng finished his seclusion, Yang Wu finally met him.

In a quiet room in Luo Feng's house, Yang Wu and Luo Feng sat facing each other.

"Brother Yang!" Luo Feng asked with a smile, "Weren't you preparing to kill two Emperor-level monsters lately? What brings you here?"

Yang Wu said with a smile, "That's exactly why I came to ask you for help!"

"You want my help?" Luo Feng asked doubtfully. "How can I help?"

Although Luo Feng is quite strong now, he hasn't cultivated for long enough. If given more time, he might be able to kill two Beast Kings. But right now, his strength is only about the same as Third Speaker Merhandson, so how could he possibly be of any help to Yang Wu?

"Is Lord Babata here?" Yang Wu asked directly.

"Yang Wu, what do you want from me?"

Suddenly, a black-robed child phantom appeared beside Luo Feng; it was the intelligent life form Babata.

Yang Wu said with a smile, "I recently went to the No. 12 ancient civilization ruins and obtained a spaceship. There should be some powerful weapons on board. I hope you, Lord Babata, can help me repair them!"

"A spaceship?" Babata's voice suddenly became excited. "What kind of spaceship is it? How complete is it?"

"Lord Babata!"

Then, a phantom red fire dragon appeared beside Yang Wu; it was Yang Wu's AI assistant, Crimson Flame. However, Crimson Flame's expression was much more rigid, unlike Babata's anthropomorphic nature.

"My master and I discovered the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spaceship, a C5-class vessel. The spaceship is in very good condition, except that I damaged some auxiliary systems!"

After Chi Yan finished speaking, a stream of light shot from Babata toward the intelligent Chi Yan beside Yang Wu.

Strictly speaking, Crimson Flame can only be considered a subordinate intelligence of Babata, so it naturally cannot prevent Babata from probing.

As the light returned, Babata shouted excitedly, "It was it! It was it... This is wonderful!"

"Once we repair this spaceship, we can go on adventures in space! Yang Wu, you were so careless! You damaged so many of the spaceship's internal systems; it'll take a long time to repair!"

"Alright, hand the spaceship over to me. Once I've repaired it, we can embark on an adventure in space together!"

Babata stood by, talking incessantly, his expression extremely excited.

Originally, it had already begun slowly building the spaceship; however, building from scratch was far too time-consuming. It was much more convenient to repair a relatively intact spaceship as it was doing now.

Moreover, this spaceship is of a higher standard and is safer to use.

However, Yang Wu did not immediately hand the spaceship over to Babata; he had his own plans in mind.

"Lord Babata, finding such a well-preserved spaceship this time is a great contribution to the Meteorite Star lineage, isn't it?" Yang Wu asked with a smile.

"Uh..." Babata suddenly didn't know what to say.

However, Babata quickly recovered and calmly said, "My Meteorite Star has countless C-class spaceships like this. Finding one is not bad, but for the Meteorite Star lineage, it's not a significant contribution!"

"Lord Babata!" Yang Wu said solemnly, "That was in the past. You certainly can't produce a complete spaceship now! If I hadn't been able to find this spaceship this time, my Meteorite Star lineage would be trapped on Earth for who knows how long. How can this not be considered a great contribution?"

After hearing Yang Wu's words, Babata stood there thinking for a while before slowly saying, "Alright then! Consider this a great contribution from you. What do you want from me? But let me make this clear beforehand, don't ask for too much!"
