Their commission was suspicious.

When the chess piece was analyzed using a scanner on the research vessel, it was completely unable to determine what substance it was.

Although everyone was puzzled by this, this strange existence attracted the attention of the researchers on the research ship.

“A marvel, this must be a marvel!” the oldest researcher said with absolute certainty.

"really."

"It looks very similar."

"But what's the use of this thing?"

"Could it be a spatial artifact? After all, the surrounding space is so chaotic."

After the defense personnel risked their lives to successfully bring the chess piece into the research vessel, all the researchers gathered around it to discuss it.

"Whoosh!" Just when everyone was wondering what the effect of this strange object shaped like a chess piece was, a flash of light suddenly appeared next to the chess piece.

Suddenly, quite abruptly, a young boy appeared next to the chess piece.

"Hmm, who are you? Why are you surrounding my anchor point?" After the boy appeared next to the chess set, the chess set fell into his hands, and after the boy tossed the chess set once, it quietly disappeared.

"..." The scene fell into a deathly silence.

The wonder is gone.

But this at least proves one thing: this thing really is a spatial artifact.

"So you took him back to the Black Tower space station?" Estelle raised an eyebrow and looked at the boy beside her.

These people actually dared to bring people of unknown origin into the space station. I don't know whether to say they're incredibly bold or just fearless.

"You might not know much about the stationmaster, but his ability to teleport in such a chaotic spatial state without sustaining any injuries demonstrates the feasibility of a teleportation technology that has never been discovered before, and this feasibility..."

"Stop, stop, stop. So you're saying you didn't refute my earlier question that you really know nothing about him, right?"

"That's right, he said he had the right to remain silent. So during his stay, he didn't respond to any academic questions we asked him. That's why we named him Puppet No. 1. Some people think he should be called Anchor No. 1 or Chess No. 1. If you don't believe me, the site administrator can ask him."

"What's your name?" Aster asked Chen Luo.

"Chen Luo".

"...Didn't he just speak?" Esther turned to look at the researchers.

"How can you talk?" the researchers exclaimed in shock.

"Can I punch him?" Chen Luo asked, pointing at the researcher.

"I'm sorry, please don't do it if possible." Estella shook her head.

"So how can you talk?" the researcher still seemed puzzled.

"You people, the moment I appeared, you all asked me things like why I could move through the chaotic space, what the spatial principles are, and how feasible it is to create spatial traps... How could I possibly understand that? You didn't even ask my name," Chen Luo said angrily.

This group of people are truly pure researchers who would rather name strangers themselves than ask them what their name is first.

I couldn't tell how capable they were, but they were infuriating.

"I'm so sorry, Alan. It's one thing if they don't ask for my name, but why didn't you ask?"

"Miss, I..."

"Alright, I understand." Just as Alan was still hesitating about how to explain, Estád raised her hand.

Getting Alan to initiate conversations with others is indeed quite difficult.

"Oh, so he's illiterate." The researchers' enthusiasm waned at a visible rate.

"Who are you calling illiterate? Who are you calling illiterate? My teacher says I'm very smart, I just don't want to study."

"Uh... everyone, please stop arguing. Let's keep the peace." Aisda could only respond to Chen Luo's words with an awkward yet polite smile.

Because when most people were in school, if their grades were not ideal, teachers would probably use this kind of talk to appease the students' parents.

As it turned out, Estelle was indeed very competent as the acting station manager, extremely adept at handling the issues raised by researchers with diverse personalities. Thanks to Estelle's mediation, the atmosphere finally eased considerably.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Estádio, and I am the acting stationmaster of the Black Tower Space Station." Estádio extended her hand to Chen Luo.

Although Chen Luo's origins are still somewhat unclear, his very existence at the site of that devastating meteor's disappearance suggests a certain degree of his specialness.

“Chen Luo, manager of Zero Point Bar, a puppeteer and traveler… or for easier understanding, you can call me the Nameless Guest.” Chen Luo gently squeezed Estella’s hand and then let go.

"The Nameless Guest?" Estella was surprised when she heard this title.

The so-called "nameless travelers" are the self-designations of travelers who follow in the footsteps of the pioneering star god and join the journey of exploring the starry sea.

They travel on a train built by Akivilli, traversing planets connected by star trails, embarking on a series of thrilling adventures.

They walked, adventured, fought, and celebrated alongside the pioneering star gods.

After the fall of Archivist Aquile, his pioneering spirit was inherited by his followers, the Nameless Ones, who continued to explore the "unknown" in the universe.

Estella knew several nameless travelers who drove their interplanetary trains to different planets.

Moreover, these nameless guests were frequent visitors to the Black Tower Space Station, so Estella was quite surprised when she first heard about the new nameless guests.

“It seems you may know other nameless guests, but please don’t connect us. I am just an ordinary person from an unknown world, seeking the future continuation of a planet eroded by the star core,” Chen Luo explained, as if he had noticed the surprise that flashed across Estella’s eyes.

【Oh right, you're an ordinary person.】

"Oh, I see... I'm sorry." Estella suddenly apologized.

Why apologize?

“After all, I am the acting station chief, and my researcher offended you with his words. I should apologize for both reason and emotion. However, I may have to disappoint you. The Star Core is known as the cancer of all worlds, and so far there is no effective way to destroy it. At most, it can only be sealed... And the Black Tower Space Station where you are now was actually built in the first place to seal the Star Core.” Aista shook her head.

Aista looked at Chen Luo with a hint of pity in her eyes.

This has nothing to do with good or evil, or with mentality; it is simply an instinctive reaction to someone in a miserable situation.

Firstly, since the other party comes from a country that has been eroded by the star core, they must have suffered hardships that are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Secondly, since the other planet is powerless to resist the star core, it is unlikely to be a planet with an advanced level of civilization. Without sufficient resources, it is practically impossible to obtain help from others to seal the star core simply through their goodwill.

“Stationmaster, you don’t need to apologize for me. I’ll apologize myself,” the researcher suddenly stepped forward and said.

"I apologize, I was a bit harsh just now. I should have realized that not every civilization teaches the principles of space folding technology as part of compulsory education," the researcher said.

"That's exactly right. Who's going to teach space folding in compulsory education?"

"Therefore I should apologize for your offense, even if you lack knowledge, that is due to the historical reasons of civilization itself."

"Do you Black Tower Space Station really enjoy calling others illiterate? I already told you I'm smart, I just don't want to learn. I still want to beat you up!" Chen Luo's smile was somewhat ferocious.

[Hahaha, hiccup.]

The user-friendly plugin rarely shows Chen Luo getting into trouble.

Since Chen Luo is approaching this with the intention of trading resources with the Black Tower Space Station, his attitude should naturally be more moderate.

"However, you may have misunderstood my intentions. I am not here to find a way to seal the star core. I just want to exchange the resources I have for resources that can help that planet and then venture into the interstellar space."

"In fact, I am not from that planet invaded by the star core. I am just a passerby who couldn't bear to see the suffering of the people on that planet, which was eroded by the wind and snow stirred up by the star core and had been reduced to a single city, so I reached out to help them," Chen Luo said.

"Just...because you can't stand it?"

"What? Isn't that reason enough?" Chen Luo retorted.

"Forgive my bluntness, Mr. Chen Luo, but you are not a qualified nameless guest, because it is difficult for nameless guests to help other planets complete their reconstruction. They usually take away the core of the planet that is the source of the disaster, do their best to help, and give the local planet some hope," Aista said softly.

Because that's what Himeko and the others that Estella knew did. It's not that Himeko and the others didn't want to help the suffering planet more, but that they were powerless to do so.

In the face of a planet and an entire civilization, the power of one or two individuals may cause irreversible destruction, but true rebirth is difficult to achieve, because destruction is far easier than construction.

"So?" Chen Luo raised an eyebrow.

“But you are a truly good person,” Estádio said with a smile.

“So if you don’t mind, you can exchange supplies at the Black Tower Space Station, and we will give you some reasonable discounts,” Estella said.

As the acting site manager, Aistar has this authority, and as a wealthy woman, Aistar also has the financial resources.

That's right. In fact, Estella didn't have any expectations for the resources Chen Luo possessed. Estella planned to generously contribute her own wealth.

Estella may not be outstanding in other aspects, but she is quite confident in her financial resources.

After all, she's a rich woman who can afford to buy a Star Destroyer with her pocket money.

As for why Estelle did this, it's probably for the same reason as Chen Luo—Estelle finds it hard to remain indifferent to the suffering of others.

It's like many people who aren't doing well themselves, but can't bear to see others suffer.

Beneath the blizzard raging in the star's core, a civilization is struggling to survive in just one city... The people there must be people worthy of respect.

Of course, it was also very tough.

Estelle has the financial resources and the confidence to help them.

Besides, didn't Chen Luo say he wanted to exchange resources?

Some planetary specialties might be quite valuable, so this business isn't entirely unprofitable.

Alan, who followed Estelle away from home to act as her guard, also saw through Estelle's thoughts. However, Alan, who usually chose to act as a housekeeper for Estelle's wasteful behavior, did not stop her this time.

"That's wonderful, but don't worry, my resources probably won't disappoint you. By the way, are antiques valuable in interstellar space?"

The Black Tower space station, or even Estádio, is indeed very wealthy, but Chen Luo also possesses a considerable amount of wealth.

Admittedly, a rich woman who can afford a Star Destroyer with her pocket money is indeed very wealthy, but if Chen Luo were to offer a golden Godhood spot, how would you respond?

Okay, this thing is definitely not for sale, but there are some things Chen Luo would be willing to sell, such as...

【for example? 】

"There are so many things that can be sold, how would I know which one to choose?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the humanized plugin.

For example, the star god Aha.

"Come on, you take on the role of the joyful spirit. Aha won't have any objections."

"Even if Ah-ha is the funniest person ever, he shouldn't be able to..."

Chen Luo thought for a moment, then shut his mouth.

Maybe Aha really is capable of doing something like that, after all, that's Aha.

……

"This is the warehouse you wanted, with enough space." Estella led Chen Luo to a warehouse.

This was Chen Luo's request, because Chen Luo said he had a lot of things to do.

"I must say, this thing is indeed very antique, probably around seven or eight hundred years old. It's rare to find it so well-preserved. What's even more remarkable is that the person who restored this antique is definitely an expert, able to preserve its nearly thousand-year-old appearance and keep it in a functional state while restoring it." The researcher who almost got into a fight with Chen Luo gave the antique that Chen Luo brought out extremely high praise.

"If someone wanted to build a museum showcasing industry from a thousand years ago, these antiques would probably fetch a good price. But the reason they're called antiques is because they're outdated. The Black Tower Space Station isn't interested in exhibits, so their prices won't be calculated based on antique value."

"It's best to buy one or two antiques to admire. In short, these items are not cheap, but they are not easy to sell," the researchers concluded.

You could say the researchers on the Black Tower space station lacked emotional intelligence, but you couldn't say they were unprofessional.

Those who are too incompetent won't be able to get into the Black Tower Space Station.

"I don't actually have many of these antiques, only about 200. If the Black Tower Space Station won't take them, I'll find somewhere else to dispose of them. After all, these antiques are indeed very difficult to repair."

These broken antiques aren't worth much, but they're really hard to repair. It's better to just wipe them with an armor box.

"Besides that, there are a lot of fully restored items. Although they may be outdated, you can just pay them the price of scrap metal."

Chen Luo had no intention of sabotaging the Black Tower Space Station in this regard, after all, the bigger problems were yet to come.

With Chen Luohe's abilities, making money wouldn't be difficult at all; he wouldn't need to exploit others' kindness for personal gain.

“No need for that. Our Black Tower Space Station has dealings with the Interstellar Peace Company, so there’s no need to worry about being pressured to lower the price. The people from the Interstellar Peace Company will give a reasonable price. If you really feel bad about it, a small commission will suffice,” Estádio said with a smile.

Interstellar Peace Corporation is the wealthiest organization in the entire galaxy. Their goods are sold all over the universe, so they have the ability to absorb so much stock without causing any price fluctuations in the vast universe.

With a wave of his hand, Chen Luo threw the ancient relics that he had received a couple of days ago—originally junk but now restored—into this warehouse.

The large number of brand-new old-model instruments that were about to fill the entire warehouse proved that Chen Luo's decision was correct—smaller spaces simply couldn't hold all of these things.

"...Where did you get these things that are clearly outdated and look like something from a thousand years ago, yet are also incredibly new?" The researcher looked at Chen Luo incredulously.

And there are so many of them?

"Yes, it's a trade secret."
