The flying shuttle emitted fiery rays, transformed into a silver line as it rapidly soared through the blackness of space. It was heading toward the azure blue planet at its maximum speed.
The speed of this flying shuttle was extremely fast. It only needed two to three hours to reach Earth from Mars. Compared to the Harley-989 passenger space shuttle which Feng Lin took to Mars, the flying shuttle was faster by more than two times.
Also, the shuttle was extremely stable; there was no sense of discomfort at all.
Feng Lin sat on the operator seat and silently marveled at the technology of the Interstellar Era.
The more developed science and technology were, the more it wouldn’t lose out to extraordinary abilities of humans.
This was a kind of technique that allowed one to touch the laws of the universe through external objects. Although science and technology couldn’t change the base of humans, it wouldn’t be restricted by one’s innate talent. As long as one accumulated lots of resources and developed science and technology far enough, their might could also shake the heaven and earth. There were no limits to one’s power.
Humanity of the Interstellar Era had already reached an unprecedented peak in terms of science and technology and caused countless scientific marvels to be born.
But sadly, the solar system was only considered a backward chaotic star region. The truly pinnacle technologies were all only found in Supreme Interstellar Empires.
Feng Lin only heard of this before but had never seen them before. Some examples were black hole cannons, dimensional guided missiles, vacuum wave arrays…
This flying shuttle was considered a product of extremely advanced technology. It shouldn’t be something the solar system had.
There were still two more hours before he reached Earth. Feng Lin started to survey the flying shuttle, wanting to discover more information.
This flying shuttle was the last trump card of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, and it contained all the remaining foundation of the company. The essence of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company’s technology and property should be within. This was simply a huge treasure trove.
And now, all of these belonged to Feng Lin!
As the owner, shouldn’t he tabulate his total wealth?
Hence, it was with a heart filled with joy that Feng Lin began to wander around the interior area of the flying shuttle, staring left and right. He was like a bumpkin who just went to a city; everything felt extremely interesting and new to him.
Although his usual temperament was one of calm and collected, he now felt slightly dizzy from this huge collection of treasure.
“A.I., I want all the information of this flying shuttle,” Feng Lin spoke.
Szzz~
A light wave cascaded down before his eyes, transforming into a virtual human silhouette that seemed akin to reality. The virtual silhouette then stood before Feng Lin.
This silhouette belonged to an enchanting-looking young girl with ample bosom and rear. Her figure was in the shape of ‘S’ and was exceedingly mesmerizing.
Her perfect figure was in accordance with the golden ratio. The bridge of her nose was erect as the depth of her eyes felt like a deep pool of water. She was like Venus—the goddess of beauty from Greek Mythology—descending to the mortal world.
The only defect about her beauty was that this virtual silhouette projection was actually in the form of a blonde hair azure-eyed girl.
The A.I. evidently detected Feng Lin’s dissatisfied expression and started to make adjustments.
“Currently adjusting the virtual projection based on captain’s request!” The blonde hair azure-eyed girl instantly became an oriental beauty with black hair and eyes. Her eyes were like limpid water, and her face had a quiet softness to it. She was clad in purple-colored chinese attire and had the graceful and mysterious feel of an oriental girl.
Feng Lin nodded. He couldn’t help but agree that the projection looked much better now.
Upon sensing Feng Lin’s satisfaction, the oriental beauty smiled. “The Holy Determination A.I. ‘Anna’ is here to service you.
Feng Lin frowned. This was clearly an oriental beauty, yet her name was Anna. It didn’t seem to match.
“Is it possible to change your name? I want to change both the name of the flying shuttle and your name. What Holy Determination, what Anna? Since this is my flying shuttle now, how can we use western names?” His words were extremely domineering.
“Your wish is my command.” The A.I. beauty had a human-like smile. “Please give me your orders.”
As expected of a flying shuttle that was considered extremely rare. The sentience of the A.I. was truly high enough, not worse than that of a human.
Feng Lin marveled silently, and all of a sudden, his eyes flashed with light.
Since he wanted to walk on Sun Wukong’s path; in the future, this flying shuttle would be his base of operations. In that case, why didn’t he name this ‘The Flowerfruit Mountain’? “From today onward, this flying shuttle will be named ‘The Flowerfruit Mountain!” Feng Lin repeated the name in confirmation.
“Confirming captain’s order! The Holy Determination Flying Shuttle shall be renamed to The Flowerfruit Mountain Flying Shuttle. Name change is successful!” The oriental beauty smiled. “Awaiting for the name change of the A.I. system.”
“Your name shall be Zixia!” Feng Lin didn’t waste too much time as he casually spoke.
“Name change successful! Captain Feng Lin, Zixia—A.I. of The Flowerfruit Mountain Flying Shuttle—is here at your service.” The oriental beauty had a smile on her face, akin to a real human.
“Mhm!” Feng Lin nodded as he calmly instructed, “Bring me to take a look at the shuttle’s structure and arrangements.”
“Captain, please come with me.” The A.I. beauty started leading the way into the depths of the flying shuttle, introducing the surroundings as she walked.
The interior of the flying shuttle was very large. It was separated into many layers and compartments. There was a laboratory, a cultivation room, a resting zone—there was everything here! The conditions were truly luxurious and felt very comfortable.
And in the equipment zone, Feng Lin actually saw all sorts of guns, grenades, cannons, and bullets. They came in all sorts of models.
Feng Lin also wasn’t familiar with them. Clearly, these weapons were considered elite weapons of Supreme Interstellar Empires and weren’t the inferior weapons in the solar system.
In fact, he even saw three mechas with the size of a grown human. They were made from alloys and radiated with the elegance of science and technology.
“Assemble.” Feng Lin pressed down on the activation button.
These mechas all emitted steam and flew toward Feng Lin as they rapidly assembled themselves. A few moments later, three machinery-resembling-ironman appeared.
Feng Lin stepped forward, studying them with interest.
A mecha was considered an extremely rare object. This was the first time he was using it.
He started to test the function of the mecha. His fingers rapped on the alloy shell, and he suddenly exerted a bit of his strength forth.
Creaking sounds instantly rang out.
The sounds of metal exceeding its weight limit echoed out as a clear fingerprint could be seen
Things got awkward then…
Feng Lin quietly retracted his hands, feeling speechless in his heart.
How fragile.
Are mechas not made from extremely tough alloys?
Why would the mecha-suit break despite me not exerting any powerful force at all?
Feng Lin felt extremely depressed.
This was the first time he was wearing a mecha-suit, but he discovered that the toughness of the mecha-suit was inferior to him. So…
There were naturally also different grades for mechas. These mechas were at most low-martial graded machines. To other interstellar cultivators, they might be useful. But to Feng Lin, they weren’t of much use at all.
The mechas weren’t even tougher than his flesh. If he were to wear them, it would just be putting on a layer of alloy that would be completely useless. Its weight might even become a burden instead.
To his astonishment, Feng Lin discovered that without realizing it, his current cultivation base was already considered very high.
Those cultivation resources, which others considered extremely valuable, was already of no effect to him.
I’m simply too powerful!
Feng Lin silently praised himself. He was gaining strength so quickly that maybe, soon, he wouldn’t even be able to recognize himself.
That young man, who had fled from his clan’s exploitation had unknowingly vanished, replaced by a matured man.
Feng Lin suppressed the melancholy he felt and continued skimming over the items inside the flying shuttle.
There were all sorts of items here, from plant seeds to fertilized animal’s ovum. There were all sorts of bizarre things. In the system, there were also many records of scientific knowledge. These were all basic-level scientific knowledge.
Feng Lin even found information on how to survive in the wild.
“What is this? Teaching people how to be Bear Grylls? Even Bear Grylls wouldn’t be able to survive on a desolate planet, right?” Feng Lin had a strange look on his face. What was all this knowledge for?
After that, he came to the warehouse of the flying shuttle. In there, he actually saw over ten thousands of sphere-shaped robots stacked together with markings on them.
“Hercules-198 Model Robotic Worker!”
Feng Lin seemed to have thought of something. He surveyed the ‘Flowerfruit Mountain’ Flying Shuttle in shock.
Could this be a colonial flying shuttle?
