Chapter 171 Santo Su IV

Since he was going to an alien planet, Hao Ren took the opportunity to check the destination's information and learned about the general situation of the place called "Santo Su IV."

"Santo Su IV" is an ecological planet located in the outer regions, with a development situation similar to Earth. Because the local area has not yet developed a space civilization of sufficient scale, the entire area does not belong to any civilization circle. Santo Su IV is filed in the universe civilization system as a single planet. This planet once had a civilization that developed to a relatively high stage, but it was later destroyed by a sudden civil war. When the Empire set up an agent on this planet, it had already ushered in a second civilization dominated by swords and magic. Those mysterious ancient ruins and the wonderful and chaotic historical inheritance between the two civilizations are the biggest features of the local planet. The name Santo Su in the local language means "land of ancestors" and "heritage," and the number IV is a label personally added by Raven 12345 when filing this planet.

The reason is that she thought that having a number after the name made it sound high-class—because she herself has a number.

Anyway... things related to that lunatic were mostly like this.

The Santo Su IV planet itself is unknown in the universe. Even if the civilization it carries develops normally, it will probably take one or two thousand years to enter the stage of stars. However, the most special thing about this planet is that it is next to a famous facility called "Suha Satellite Station." This satellite station is a giant space station left by an ancient civilization called "Suha." It is said that its scale is equivalent to a small planet. Its creators had prospered and developed all over the stars before the Empire took over this universe, but later, for unknown reasons, this superb ancient civilization disappeared overnight, leaving countless advanced relics in the cosmic starry sky and mysterious descendants scattered on a few remote planets. Those descendants knew nothing about their ancestors, and their advanced facilities left in space have become the property of many later civilizations to this day.

It is said that the first civilization on Santo Su IV was an experimental product cultivated by the Suha race millions of years ago... who knows, there are such legends in the starry sky, and the Empire has no interest in interfering.

The Fia Li Void Consortium spent a lot of money to repair the Suha Satellite Station floating in the Santo Su IV star system, and installed the most powerful broadcast antenna system in the entire universe on this ancient space facility (excluding those big guys set up by the Empire, which are outside the specifications), thereby monopolizing the civilian data communications in as many as a dozen galactic ranges at once. Although the Empire's communication network is not connected to the Suha Satellite Station, this satellite station is frequently mentioned as a "landmark facility" during data forwarding, and the stationmaster of the satellite station is also one of the Fia Li Void Consortium's liaison officers with the Empire in the local area.

No one in the dozens of galactic ranges of inspectors and folk groups doesn't know about the Suha Satellite Station.

"After we go, we can look around. The scenery of Santo Su IV is very famous, as well as its two civilizations," the data terminal, like a travel agent salesperson, urged, "Anyway, it's not urgent."

Lili sniffed the chocolate in her hand vigorously, her face full of joy as she moved forward: "Landlord, are you short of bodyguards when you go out—the kind who can write books?"

"I'm just going to see a colleague in the next unit, not going on a combat mission, what bodyguard do I need," Hao Ren pressed Lili's head and pushed her out, "Besides, you can't eat chocolate, why are you sniffing it so hard? Isn't this torturing yourself?"

Lili didn't give up: "Then are you short of dogs—also the kind who can write books?"

She is now broad-minded, especially when she is with Hao Ren, she doesn't hesitate to make fun of her husky bloodline. This would have been unimaginable a year ago.

Nangong Wuyue raised her tail tip (still with a spring on it) and shook it: "I want to go with you too. I want to see anything related to the Wrathful Spirits."

"Roll" lazily raised his head and meowed, rubbing his head hard on Hao Ren's arm: "This meow also wants to go with you, it's boring at home."

"Okay, okay... you can all go with me," Hao Ren helplessly raised his hand, thinking that it would be good to take the gang at home out for a walk at this opportunity. After all, everyone was quite nervous after the previous incident, "Vivian, are you going?"

Vivian smiled and shook her head: "I'll stay and watch the house. Someone has to clean up the house. You can take me next time if there's a chance."

Vivian is always the first to follow when she needs to go out on a mission that might involve fighting, but she is willing to give way to others and stay to watch the house when it is just a simple outing like this. It has to be said that she is the most worry-free one in the family.

At this time, the sound of a key opening the door and Elizabeth's chattering cheerful voice suddenly came from the direction of the entrance. Izhaks led his daughter back. As soon as he entered the door, the great demon saw everyone gathered together and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Elizabeth looked at the spring on Nangong Wuyue's tail tip in surprise: "Oh, Sister Wuyue, are you pretending to be a rattlesnake?"

Nangong Wuyue then remembered the spring on the tip of her tail, and quickly pulled it off and stuffed it into the hole in the sofa, but the tip of her tail had already wrinkled up like a rattlesnake...

Hao Ren casually told Izhaks about the news from afar, and the latter waved his hand: "You go, I'm not interested."

At this time, Elizabeth was already chatting with Dou Dou: "Let me tell you, when my dad came in, he saw a guy in a Taoist robe jumping out with a 'Demon, take my sword!' He was beheaded by my dad, and the wine was still warm... Then my dad and I and Grandma Zhao protected Tang Sanzang to go to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures..."

Dou Dou listened with fascination, raising her small hand crossbow and shouting wildly.

Hao Ren: "... Old Wang, if you really can't teach your daughter, hand her over to Nangong Sanba. Although that guy's demon hunter skills are a bit useless, he has a way of teaching Dou Dou, at least he doesn't make up stories like you."

Izhaks: "..."

After Nangong Sanba came back, everyone told him about the second Wrathful Spirit, and of course he wanted to go with them. So early the next morning, Hao Ren led his cats and dogs and the Nangong siblings onto the spaceship and headed for Santo Su IV.

They came to a star system shrouded in dark clouds. A young, orange-red star vigorously illuminated this place with as many as twenty-three planets. However, among the many planets here, only Santo Su IV is in the habitable zone. Half of the remaining twenty-two planets are too close to their sun and are scorched like hell, while the remaining eleven planets are eternally frozen. The Suha Satellite Station is on the critical point between Santo Su IV and the thirteenth planet. The space anchoring technology keeps this huge space station and the star in a permanently fixed relative position.

It is a huge, standard thirty-two-sided gray-white space station, almost a third of the size of Earth, with a huge forwarding antenna standing on each shiny surface. In the night sky, its brilliance surpasses all other stars.

As a matter of course, this ""star"" with a unique ""trajectory"" has always been a mystery in the hearts of the residents of Santo Su. But because this celestial body has been hanging over the heads of the latter since civilization appeared on Santo Su, the Fia Li Consortium avoided a series of regulations restricting information contact with low-level civilizations - those profiteers did not need to disguise this giant space station, and the costs they saved for this made the entire universe's trade groups jealous.

The spaceship began to decelerate within the star system. As it approached the Suha Satellite Station, Hao Ren received greetings from the stationmaster of the space station: "It is an honor to have an inspector visit this place - would you like a souvenir gift pack from the Fia Li Consortium? You can't miss this when you come to the Suha Satellite Station. We offer the biggest discounts to inspectors."

"No, thank you," Hao Ren had long heard of the Fia Li Consortium's salesmen, and refused in one breath on the communicator and changed the subject, "What's the news here recently?"

He consulted the local inspector's public information and found that the Wrathful Spirit was captured in space, so he asked casually.

"News? This place is news every day, but it's definitely not something you're interested in. Oh, there is one thing, the people of Sandulan planet are again complaining that our large antenna array's radiation is harmful to their health - their planet is twenty billion light-years away from this space station! Never mind... want a souvenir gift pack?"

"To be honest, is your antenna radiation high?" Hao Ren looked at the huge antenna towers on the Suha Satellite Station and asked casually.

"Anyway, it won't exceed any normal sun. This place has been operating for a thousand years after we took over, and all procedures and licenses are up to standard," the space station stationmaster replied, "Want a souvenir gift pack?"

Hao Ren felt a burst of exhaustion. He thought to himself that he shouldn't have connected with the satellite station in the first place: "... Thank you for your kindness, but I'd better go to work first."

"Okay, I wish you a smooth work, won't you come back for a souvenir gift pack?"

Hao Ren quickly accelerated the spaceship and rushed towards Santo Su IV, and a group of giant projections released from the Suha Satellite Station shone brightly behind the spaceship: "Don't forget to come back for a souvenir gift pack!"

The reputation of the Fia Li profiteers resounded through the void, and it was well-deserved.
