Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 161 Nationality and Virtual Networks (Transitional, optional)

The Black Dragon spaceship pierced through the atmosphere, revealing a massive silver city below.

"Signal received, we're heading to Zone C!" Babata announced on the control panel screen.

The enormous docking port is divided into several areas, and every spaceship and warship in the Class C area is incredibly expensive.

This is an extremely large docking port, with countless spaceships coming and going.

Bai Yang and Luo Feng looked out with great interest; these were probably all ordinary civilian spaceships.

The X81's appearance is simply outstanding in this airport, and it is very eye-catching.

Many people on the ground knew as soon as they saw it that the owner of the ship was either very rich or very powerful, and probably quite extraordinary even in Zone C.

As soon as the spaceship came to a stop, several people jogged over to serve it; they were all clever port staff.

Bai Yang was the first to step off the spaceship. The person leading the reception was a middle-aged woman with bright red skin, wearing a gray uniform.

She was humble and polite, and spoke with a smile in fluent Universal Language:

"Respected sir, welcome to Qiulong Star, your Black Dragon Mountain X81 model spaceship."

The parking fee is 600 Black Dragon Coins per year! Even if it's less than a year, you'll still be charged 600 Black Dragon Coins. Here's your parking card.

As she spoke, she handed him a silver, semi-transparent card with both hands. The card had a symbol representing the C on it.

Unfortunately, she was mistaken; Bai Yang had no money on him at the moment.

Luo Feng walked out from behind her with a smile, flicking a coin with his thumb, which she caught quickly.

"Dry Witch Coins!" The woman's eyes lit up.

These two must be someone important!

Using Qianwu coins is proof of a large family and powerful background!

Bai Yang ignored her and walked straight past her.

This red-skinned woman was a ninth-level planetary-level mentalist, and she dared not utter a single word.

He immediately bowed and retreated, leading a dozen or so of his men, walking backward step by step with his back bent.

Bai Yang knew that this place was thousands of kilometers away from Qiulong City at the center of the planet.

There's no need to waste time in a place like this; he just wants to sell the goods as soon as possible.

Being in an unfamiliar environment with no money on you is a terrible feeling.

According to the map provided by Babata, Bai Yang and Luo Feng flew towards Qiulong City.

These two are among the fastest in the planetary class.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Bai Yang specifically arranged for two Silver Guards to follow behind him.

Sure enough, no fools came out to cause them any trouble along the way.

Otherwise, Bai Yang wouldn't mind getting some coins to spend first.

Half an hour later, an enormous city appeared before their eyes.

The city walls were as black as ink, stretching to the horizon, so vast that they were out of sight!

On the top of the city wall, there are beautiful, translucent glass dragons coiled around it.

Upon closer inspection, one can discover intricate carvings on the pitch-black city walls—carvings of unicorn dragons.

This is Dragon City!

It stretches nearly 6000 kilometers in length and width, has a history of over three million years, and is an economic center spanning tens of thousands of light-years!

"Signal received, our communications number has arrived," Babata suddenly said as they entered the city.

Once inside the city, the streets were filled with unfamiliar architectural styles and alien races, and we walked around them.

Bai Yang knew that these aliens, whether three-eyed or extremely large, were also part of the human race.

People like him and Luo Feng, who look like Earthlings, appear too ordinary here, and no one would give them a second glance.

"The administrative building of the Heilongshan Empire is located here, about 200 kilometers away from us."

Babata said, "According to our plan, the first thing we will do upon arriving on Qiulong Star is to join the Black Dragon Mountain Empire and obtain citizenship."

Fortunately, flying is allowed in Dragon City, otherwise this distance would have been quite troublesome.

Bai Yang and Luo Feng immediately took to the air, flying to a height of 100 meters above the ground, heading towards their target.

They soon came to see a huge sculpted structure of a black dragon coiled high in the mountain.

The gatekeepers at the entrance, upon seeing the Silver Guards behind them, warmly welcomed them inside.

The group went straight up to the 32nd floor when a woman with rabbit ears, as beautiful as a fairy from mythology, flew over.

I bowed slightly and smiled as I asked them what brought them there.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

"We want to join the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's nationality," Bai Yang said with a smile.

Having citizenship is essential for doing many things in the universe.

The rabbit-eared woman then led them to an office where two blue-eyed staff members dressed in black asked what they wanted.

"Since you have never acquired any nationality, many steps can be omitted."

All you need to do is pay a processing fee of 50 Black Dragon Coins, and everything will be taken care of.

Luo Feng stepped forward and gave him another Qianwu coin, asking him to give him change.

The man was overjoyed; the exchange rate difference between these currencies would allow him to make a fortune.

Bai Yang and Luo Feng couldn't be bothered with such trivial matters.

They quickly finished their business here and immediately prepared to head to the Virtual Universe Company.

Access to the "virtual universe" is extremely important to them!

-

Qiulong City, Virtual Universe Company.

Bai Yang bought two accounts with 100 years of internet access fees in one go, as well as 100 anonymous accounts and an equal number of consciousness-sensing helmets.

Luo Feng paid for all of these upfront, and they would settle the accounts later.

-

In a casual restaurant in Qiulong City, the two of them booked a private room.

"Enter the virtual universe!"

They all have their own auxiliary optical computers, so they don't need helmets; they can use them as long as they are linked to an account.

"Virtual universe connection in progress..."

A deep, resounding voice echoed in Bai Yang's consciousness.

When he came to his senses, he found himself in a crowd on a street.

Wearing simple gray clothes, a Star Guardian, no bigger than a fist, sits on his shoulder.

She was dressed in the same green outfit as the other virtual assistants.

This is Black Dragon Mountain Island, located on the edge of the virtual universe's "Qianwu Continent".

"Star Guardian, it's up to you now."

"Don't worry, I'll be ready soon."

Star Guardian looked very smug, full of confidence in his current abilities.

Bai Yang walked a few steps forward on this main street.

Star Guardian has simulated his search needs and accessed the public library in the virtual universe.

I packaged all the information from the entire library and downloaded it.

Next, she began to delve into various semi-professional forums and blogs, thoroughly exploring all kinds of freely available knowledge in fields such as mechanics, biology, pharmaceuticals, and engineering.

Before she had even finished exploring Baiyang Street, she had already collected all the new public knowledge about martial arts cultivation over the past 50,000 years.

After finishing his business, he went offline and discovered that Luo Feng was still browsing the internet.

He pushed open the door and went straight out; it was time to sell everything.
