Swallowed Star: Primordial Artifact

Chapter 7 Horned Dragon Star

Five hours later.

"Ding, we have reached the target coordinates! Slowing down will begin soon!"

Accompanied by a cold mechanical sound, Jiang Ye's spaceship responded quickly, gradually slowing down, and finally stopped steadily.

"The spacecraft has successfully left the dark universe!" Immediately afterwards, another prompt sound came.

"Start 100% exterior scene virtual mode immediately!" Jiang Ye gave the order.

In an instant, the originally closed interior space of the spacecraft underwent a wonderful change - the control console quietly disappeared, and instead, a breathtaking scene appeared before their eyes: a colorful, radiant planet surrounded by two satellites.

"Ding, traction signal received!"

Not long after, guided by the signal, the spacecraft slowly passed through the atmosphere of this colorful planet.

Through the clear and realistic exterior virtual technology, Jiang Ye cast his gaze towards the enormous silver city below.

Since the spaceship Jiang Ye was driving was of C9 grade, this meant that according to relevant regulations, he could only dock it in a C-grade area.

Standing in front of the huge dock, Jiang Ye stared at the densely packed, variously shaped and numerous spaceships shining like stars in front of him, and a strong feeling of shock surged in his heart.

"Beep, the spacecraft has docked and the hatch is about to open!" With a clear reminder sound, the hatch slowly opened. Jiang Ye took a deep breath and walked out of the cabin with a step that was as calm as a human.

At this moment, a figure gradually came into his sight. It was a beautiful girl with a body as white as snow, a pair of emerald green eyes, and a height of about 1 meters. She had pointed cat ears, wore a neat uniform, and exuded a unique temperament.

Jiang Ye quietly watched her walk towards him, secretly exclaiming in his heart: Hiss! This world is so good! There are even real cat-eared girls!

Cat... No, the girl's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smile as gorgeous and warm as a blooming spring flower, and said in a beautiful voice like a yellow oriole singing out of the valley: "Dear sir, hello! Welcome to this beautiful Qionglong Star. The parking fee for the C9-class alloy spacecraft you are driving is Black Dragon Coins per year! If your stay is less than a year, we will still charge according to the standard for a full year. This is your parking card, please be sure to keep it properly!"

"it is good!"

Jiang Ye stared at the girl in front of him, and then casually took the card from her hand that symbolized the legality of docking the spacecraft.

Then, he slowly took out a Black Dragon Coin worth one thousand from his pocket and gently threw it in front of the other party.

"Keep the change, please!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Hearing Jiang Ye's pure universal language, the cat-eared girl glanced at the spaceship behind Jiang Ye, then looked at Jiang Ye's outfit, and immediately reached out to take it happily, but when it touched Jiang Ye's hand, her entire hand slipped over it.

However, Jiang Ye seemed not to notice and flew towards the city under the girl's resentful gaze.

The sky of Qilong Star presents an extremely fascinating scene. The colors of its different areas are not exactly the same, but are infinitely changing.

Some areas appear deep and pure blue, as if an endless ocean stretches across the sky; some areas are dyed with mysterious and charming purple, like dreamy nebulae floating in the sky; and some areas sparkle with vibrant green.

The dazzling light stubbornly penetrates through the atmospheric clouds and pours onto the vast ocean, presenting a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

Due to the extremely vastness of this planet, even for Jiang Ye, who has reached the stellar level, it still takes a full half hour to reach the main city of Qiulong Star.

However, Jiang Ye did not seem anxious, but soared leisurely in the sky, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. "Hmm?"

At this moment, several streaks of light suddenly cut through the sky and rushed straight towards Jiang Ye.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Ye instantly displayed his extraordinary body skills and dodged to the surroundings at lightning speed.

With a deafening roar, the sharp blades fell into a huge pit like a meteor. Jiang Ye's heart tightened, and he immediately looked around vigilantly.

"The target is still alive, everyone attack together! This is a piece of fat meat!"

A deep and hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the empty void. The speaker was a man wearing pitch-black armor, tightly wrapped all over.

Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows and said in a cold voice: "Who are you? Why are you attacking me?" There was anger and doubt in his voice, and his eyes scanned the surroundings like lightning.

The man did not answer Jiang Ye's question. He just gave an order and more than a dozen figures emitting stellar aura stepped out from all around, each holding a weapon in their hands and attacking Jiang Ye.

These figures were agile and moved quickly, like a group of hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

Jiang Ye knew at this point that he had encountered robbers. On Qiulong Star, only citizens within the city were protected.

Seeing the attack coming again, Jiang Ye turned his hand and the Wind Sword appeared in his hand. At the same time, the Wind Domain unfolded, covering all the dozen people. The wind was howling in the domain, and sand and rocks were flying, as if it was going to tear everything apart.

"What is this?" The bandits who were shrouded in the field moved extremely slowly, showing expressions of surprise and fear.

"This is a field! Oops, this is a difficult idea, run!" The leader was obviously more knowledgeable and immediately spoke loudly to the others.

"Humph, you want to leave, it's too late!"

Jiang Ye swung the sword in his hand with all his strength. The sword flashed, blood splattered everywhere, and more than a dozen bandits fell to the ground and died with screams, leaving only the leader.

Jiang Ye stared at the leading robber, gradually approaching him, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Looking at the corpses around him, the leading bandit trembled, dropped his weapon, and fell to the ground, looking terrified.

“Mercy…”

However, just as Jiang Ye approached him, the man in black suddenly picked up the sword next to him and rushed forward in an instant.

Jiang Ye sneered and easily avoided his attack, then stabbed out with a sword, directly piercing his heart.

After dealing with these enemies, Jiang Ye put away his sword and looked at the corpses on the ground, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

"Don't they say that villains always have to have a long speech? It seems that we can't believe everything written in those novels!"

Jiang Ye turned and left the battlefield, continuing to fly towards the city.

After this encounter, Jiang Ye became more deeply aware of the dangers of this world.
