The Seventh Base

Chapter 917: Chapter 8: Chloe Star_2

“I am Lan Qing, daughter of the Governor of Lansiding Star, here to study on Chloe Star. Everyone here is my friend and escort, accompanying me for my studies,” Lan Qing said.

Lan Qing’s face appeared on the screen, and the intelligent system said, “Identity verification correct, the system has scanned and identified all members, and assigned numbers, permission granted to enter.”

The small ship was transmitted forward, then through a channel, a system voice announced, “Welcome to Chloe Star. The map of Chloe Star has been sent to your starship. Please adhere to the laws of Chloe Star, and have a pleasant journey.”

“Buzz…”

The small ship burst out of the channel, entering inside Chloe Star, through the clouds, they arrived above Chloe Star.

In the sky, flying devices shuttled back and forth, truly spectacular.

Ye Qingdie clicked open the map on the screen, feeling quite shocked internally.

“When we entered, the system did identity verification and numbering, we should have entered Chloe Star’s database, everything we do here should be monitored in the database, right?” Ye Qingdie remarked.

“Yes.” Lan Qing nodded, “As long as we don’t violate Chloe Star’s laws, no one will bother us.”

Big data processes countless information daily, filtering through all of it; if not breaking the law, generally it won’t draw attention, unless someone purposely calls up database information for investigation.

“Where are we going now?” Ye Qingdie asked while looking at the map.

“To the Bay Area,” Xu Mo said. Chloe Star is not a country but the provincial center of the republic. The planet doesn’t have city divisions, only various districts.

The Bay Area is Chloe Star’s largest land region, adjacent to the marine district and is also Chloe Star’s central area.

“Okay.” Ye Qingdie nodded, and she and Xiao Qi controlled the starship to continue forward.

The starship traveled high in the sky. Upon reaching the Bay Area, the flying devices were more densely packed, with various airspaces everywhere, and the buildings below were also the crystallization of civilization, seemingly brand new structures made of special materials that don’t age.

Thus, on Chloe Star, residential prices are extremely high, especially in the central area, where obtaining a home with permanent residence rights requires an astronomical amount of Silver Star coins, unaffordable for ordinary people.

With high residential prices comes equally expensive rental fees, including hotels, making the cost of living extremely high. Settling on Chloe Star is not an easy task.

Moreover, besides nearby planets, coming to Chloe Star from relatively distant planets isn’t easy either, like Lan Qing’s father being the governor finds it hard to let Lan Qing cross the star domain to reach Chloe Star, facing considerable risks.

Therefore, Xu Mo’s primary destination was the Imperial First Bank.

Outside a branch of the Imperial Bank in the Bay Area, numerous flying devices were parked, as a starship descended from the sky with someone directing its landing, it settled on a vacant space.

Due to regularly hosting high-end clients, parking a starship outside this Imperial First Bank is not a problem.

The group disembarked from the starship, and Lan Qing glanced at Xu Mo.

This guy, truly pragmatic… heading to the Imperial Bank first, clearly intending to collect travel expenses.

Of course, Xu Mo had brought her to Chloe Star, fulfilling the task her father Blue Duke assigned, so according to the deal, she indeed ought to transfer funds to Xu Mo.

Chloe Star as the provincial center has a very high safety index; settling here, she would face little danger and could live here permanently, allowing Blue Duke peace of mind.

Before departure, Blue Duke instructed her with certain matters, if Xu Mo brought her to a safe planet, consider following Xu Mo. In reality, Blue Duke hopes Xu Mo would take care of Lan Qing for such a steep travel fee.

After all, with Lan Qing outdoors, Blue Duke remains somewhat uneasy.

At this moment, a woman in uniform walked step by step down the steps towards them, with a professional smile engraved on her face, standard physique, and outstanding appearance. Although Chloe Star had long adopted artificial intelligence services, many industries still have not replaced humans, as human services can provide clients with a genuine warmth.

The Imperial First Bank frequently needs to entertain major clients, maintaining very high standards for service personnel.

The welcoming woman scanned the group with her eyes, instantly focusing on Xu Mo.

Among the group, Xu Mo, Ye Huan, Zero, Lan Qing and others all possessed a distinguished aura.

Yet, Xu Mo walked at the center with Zero beside him, Ye Qingdie on the other side, with Ye Huan slightly behind and Nuolin and Hans at the rear.

Lan Qing was next to Zero, with her bodyguard following her.

The seasoned welcoming woman immediately perceived Xu Mo and Lan Qing might belong to two factions, though Xu Mo and Zero displayed an overwhelmingly dominant aura, presumably Xu Mo being the primary.

“Sir, may I assist you in any way?” The woman courteously asked, Xu Mo glanced at her, amazed that she could instantly pinpoint him from the crowd, demonstrating remarkable acuity.

Xu Mo looked at Lan Qing, who spoke, “Mr. Xu Mo needs to open an account, additionally, I and Mr. Xu Mo have a transfer transaction.”

“Certainly, sir, miss, please.” The woman led the way ahead, towards the steps.

Someone exited the Imperial Bank, seemingly a young couple with outstanding appearance.

On the other side, a person exited with a blue face, and astonishingly, his skin began to change, appearing to alter with light.

Behind him, a figure possessed a mechanical body yet carried a human facade.

Chloe Star gathered humans from major planets, with the same humanity yet featuring many distinctions, numerous individuals possessing extraordinary abilities.

Xu Mo entered the Imperial Bank, all established accounts, but Lan Qing’s transfer was not on his account but on Ye Qingdie’s account; after all, many things were handled by Sister Butterfly, Xu Mo barely managed.

On Lucas Star, Sister Butterfly continually played the role of a female housekeeper.

Such matters wouldn’t be handled by Zero either.

This made Lan Qing and Nuolin reassess Ye Qingdie’s status; tens of billions of Silver Star coins aren’t a trivial number, all placed in Ye Qingdie’s account, this goes beyond mere trust.

They even suspected, is there some secret between these two?

“What plans does Miss Lan Qing have next?” Xu Mo asked as they left the Imperial First Bank.

“…” Lan Qing took a deep look at Xu Mo, just after the transfer asking about her plans, too realistic!

“No plans yet.” Lan Qing replied.

Seeing Lan Qing’s look, Xu Mo felt slightly embarrassed, maybe too realistic?

Hearing Lan Qing saying no plans yet, Xu Mo tentatively suggested, “Since we are all newcomers, why not walk together, then separate when Miss Lan Qing has her plans?”

Beside him, Zero glanced at Xu Mo upon hearing this, startling him… Seems he spoke too freely.

“Okay.” Lan Qing nodded smoothly at Xu Mo’s words, it indeed left her a bit awkward when Xu Mo asked, she as a woman naturally wouldn’t say she’ll follow him, hence she felt he was ‘too realistic’, falling out right after the transfer.

But since Xu Mo took the initiative, she naturally followed the suggestion; she anticipated where Xu Mo would go and wished to see where.

“However, the matter with Solan, Miss Lan Qing knows too, and if Miss Lan Qing accompanies me, not sure if it might lead to trouble.” Xu Mo reminded, when Solan was killed outside the Governor’s Mansion, if the Church knew Lan Qing traveled with him, they might consider the Governor’s Mansion involved.

“If the Church investigates this, they should know I’m with you anyway.” Lan Qing said, with Xu Mo not worried about this, she also felt no fear.

“Alright.” Xu Mo nodded without saying more, then as he walked forward, quietly clasped Zero’s hand.

The survival instinct, something Xu Mo always possessed strongly.
