"If we're going to travel, we'll need a better ship—faster, bigger, and more chefs..."
With Li Xingkong's instructions, Guapilong has begun to rethink his plans.
There was no way around it. I had lived such a hard life before, I didn't have much money, and my equipment was far inferior. It was more like wandering around my own little plot of land than a trip.
With more money in his hands than he could spend in several lifetimes, Guapilong's horizons broadened instantly.
Things I never dared to dream of before now seem a bit too cheap and unworthy of me.
Indeed, money can corrupt people.
"You think about it first, we'll go ahead."
Although no matter how fast a spaceship is, it can't be as fast as him. But traveling is different from traveling alone and struggling to keep up. Enjoyment is what makes it travel. Just running on your legs is just rushing around.
Seeing that Guapilong was already thinking about what to buy for his first expense, Li Xingkong didn't hesitate much either. He spread his Divine Sense and enveloped the entire spaceship.
" Guapilong, we're about to set off."
"Departure? The spaceship isn't ready yet..."
Before Guapilong could finish speaking, he saw his spaceship undergo a strange change.
Starting from overhead, the spaceship slowly transformed into specks of light, like stars, floating in space.
The sudden and miraculous change stunned it for a moment. It didn't even notice that it could still breathe freely in this vacuum environment without any abnormality.
The portion of the spaceship that turned into points of light grew larger and larger until, gradually, the entire spaceship had become points of light, and it and Li Xingkong seemed to be standing in the void.
"Wow!"
Realizing that there was nothing beneath its feet, the Guapilong began to dance wildly. For the first time, it revealed its true form in space, and a tremendous sense of panic arose within it.
Then, it saw Li Xingkong beside it scatter from human form into a ball of starlight, just like fireworks. The ball of starlight was pointing at it from afar, as if inviting it.
Just as it was about to say something, it discovered that its struggling limbs had also transformed.
Before the brain realizes what has happened, it sees itself again as a mass of information.
This feeling of being present is wonderful; it's as if you can see all your thoughts, whether it's a fleeting curiosity or a whimsical idea in your mind, all of which are now materialized before your eyes.
Just as he was curious about his own state and preparing to "grab" his thoughts to take a look, Li Xingkong made a move.
In the next instant, the planets around us and the galaxies in the distance seemed to turn into ribbons of light, and the whole world was instantly filled with seven colors, as if we had entered some kind of passage.
I couldn't see anything clearly, not at all. All I could see were strange streaks of color rushing past me at an incredibly fast speed.
Shock, surprise, and finally, delight.
The Guapilong suddenly felt that this state wasn't so scary anymore. Li Xingkong very well; it could not only sense its own presence but also see the spaceship.
However, the spaceships of today do not have the ability to protect them. With a simple reach, its informational hand passes through the spaceship and extends to the outside of the window.
They are not alone; many other groups of light are flowing alongside them.
The Guapilong greeted them warmly, but none of the orbs of light returned the greeting, as if... they had no manners whatsoever.
"What's wrong with everyone? Are they all so indifferent?"
Its eyes darted around, and it reached out and touched the nearest ball of light.
The ball of light was like a cotton candy; when it touched it, a large piece was torn off, which it grabbed and pulled back to its side.
"It's over!"
The moment Guapilong withdrew his hand, he realized what the problem was.
Those orbs of light were different from them; they were not living things, but rather a mass of information.
I think I've gotten myself into trouble.
It glanced furtively at Li Xingkong Li Xingkong, who seemed oblivious to the matter, and quickly looked at the wad of information it had torn off.
" Arc Three... Destiny... Help... Urgent..."
The scattered information was very disorganized, leaving Guapilong completely bewildered.
What are all these things?
Although I couldn't understand it, I could tell from the words that it was an urgent SOS message, and the Arc Three at the beginning seemed to be a location.
It's over, it's all over now.
Guapilong's heart skipped a beat; with that casual tug, he seemed to have torn away the letter pleading for help.
If this leads to a tragedy, my conscience will not forgive me.
Besides, I've only just started as a tour guide; I haven't even had a chance to enjoy all that money yet. I can't just let a moment of impulsiveness cause me to miss out on such a lucrative opportunity...
But it can't just pretend nothing happened, so what can we do now?
After thinking for a while, Guapilong made up his mind to go and take a look at this so-called Arc Three Star System first.
As for the reason... since I'm a tour guide, making a slight change to the route shouldn't be a problem.
Li Xingkong and his group's destination for this journey is the Moon-Grasping Ball Field on the other side of the universe. The journey will take a long time and will basically cross three major forces. The route is a little bumpy, but it doesn't seem to have much of an impact.
The problem now is to find out exactly what this so-called Arc Three is.
Its limited brain certainly couldn't come up with a solution, so it could only turn to its own kind for help.
However, in its tachyon state, it cannot interact with its own pocket at all, and cannot even make contact with it.
I only regret my lack of knowledge!
I should have listened a little more during class.
Where can I find that outdated knowledge in such a short time...?
Just as Guapilong was thinking this, it was suddenly surprised to find that the memories buried deep in its mind, which it could hardly find anymore, floated before its eyes in a strange way. All its memories from birth to the time before it became like this were like a CD, which it could browse at will.
"There's hope!"
It quickly flipped through its memories, and soon, in a geography lesson, it finally found the origin of this naming method.
All galaxies that begin with an arc and are named with numbers are direct galaxies of the Axiom Arc.
Especially those with the character "three" in their names, are the direct descendants of the lineage, and are the core star regions of the Axiom Arc.
"So, this distress signal is related to them!"
Guapilong's hands trembled even more.
Who are those Axiom Arc people? They're the kind of people who, if they even catch a glimpse of them in their lifetime, are considered to be favored by immortals.
That claw of mine really deserved to be chopped off.
