Chapter 168

After I got on the ZODIAC spaceship and left Akiba, after a few space jumps, I came to a primordial planet.

THIS IS ZODIAC'S RECENTLY DISCOVERED MINERAL PLANET, MAINLY PRODUCING BICRYSTALS, IN THE PREVIOUS TRANSACTION, ZODIAC HAS CARVED OUT A PLACE HERE FOR ME, ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO BE USED TO BUILD A BRANCH OF 0048, BUT NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT, IT WOULD BE BETTER TO HAND IT OVER TO THE VOLALOID FAMILY TO MANAGE, THE FEWER PEOPLE WHO COME HERE, THE MORE THE PLANET'S ENVIRONMENT CAN BE MAINTAINED.

I was received here by Ernst & Young, the housekeeper of the Wisdom family, but rather a butler, when Wisdom was not at home, he was more of an assistant to help Wisdom's father with various business.

"Welcome, Miss Eguchi Aimi, thank you for taking care of the eldest lady." Ernst & Young bowed to me very politely.

"You're so polite, call me aimi, as a graduate student in AKB0048, Ji Hui Li will be taken care of by everyone, and she herself is very hard-working, she is a good child. Do you know the purpose of my visit today? "I took the initiative to shake his hand and cut straight to the point.

"Yes, the CEO told me that our ZODIAC mining operations on this planet are as far away from the habitation of local creatures as you have requested, and some of the materials you have requested are ready to start construction of the base you said."

"Very good, then let me introduce you first, this is Hatsune Miku, that is, the virtual idol that has just appeared recently, and the VOCALOID family she represents will take over the newly built base here, and you can communicate with her about anything on this planet in the future." I took out my phone and let Miku's image show in front of Ernst & Young.

"Hello, I'm Hatsune Miku of the VOCALOID family, and we'll be neighbors from now on, so please take care of me." Miku's 3D projection bowed.

"Miss Aimi, do you mean to hand over this base to a virtual persona, I'm afraid it won't work, right?" Ernst & Young was a little surprised: "Even if a base is not very large, it needs at least dozens of people to manage all aspects of the problem, and it is impossible to operate by relying on only one program." ”

"She's not an ordinary program, you just think she's an artificial intelligence, you just have to build a base according to her requirements, and give it to her to use when it's done. Can you show us around first, it is said that the creatures on this planet are very large. ”

"Alright then, please come with me." Ernst & Young took us on board.

The aircraft flew at a low altitude, passing some pillars from time to time, the planet had a very strange shell, like a broken eggshell, supported by countless pillars, and when you got closer, you could see that these pillars were not rocks, but a plant, and each pillar had a spherical protrusion, in which you could faintly see the flow of liquid.

"Most of the species on this planet are gigantic fungi, and from current testing, they are not toxic, but some spores can cause hallucinations. These pillars are also fungi, and the liquid in the spherical protrusions contains a high concentration of bicrystalline, but because the technology of extracting bicrystalline from the liquid is too expensive, we mainly mine the crystals underground. "Ernst & Young explained some basic facts about the planet.

At this time, the aircraft happened to fly into an open field, and the huge creatures on the ground were very obvious.

"These native creatures are named 'Fengji' by us, and we don't know more about them for the time being, only that the size of the juvenile and mature bodies of this creature is hugely different, and the temperament and personality are unknown."

"Unknown personality, haven't you encountered it in the mining process?"

"Occasionally, we have seen larvae, but the noise of our mining equipment will make them leave on their own initiative, and there is no direct contact with the staff for the time being."

"Then go down and take a look, there is no trace of destruction in the surrounding environment, and if such a large creature is short-tempered, the surrounding vegetation cannot be so lush." Miku suggests.

"I don't think it's a good idea," Ernst & Young objected, "and such a huge creature can easily cause surprises even if it has a mild temper." ”

"It's okay, their hatchlings are smaller than ours and they're fine, and there won't be any accidents." I said as I motioned for the pilot to land.

The driver looked at Ernst & Young, and Ernst & Young said helplessly: "Land, pay attention to safety." ”

Chapter 169

The ship landed on an open plateau, and I stepped out of the ship with a natural breath in my face.

"The air here is nice," I stretched pleasantly, "much better than where you are in the mining base." ”

"There is no way to do it, there are exhaust gases emitted by mining machines, and traces left by human activities, which have some impact on the surrounding vegetation, and the air is naturally not as fresh as here." Ernst & Young said as he followed behind me.

I walked around casually for a while, and I could always feel the eyes around me as if they were watching me, it should be some little Fengji hiding around, and it was not easy to find them among the colorful mushroom bushes.

I walked to a pillar and looked up, and more than 100 meters above the ground was a ball containing a large amount of bicrystalline liquid, and then looked around the pillar, and sure enough, there were some scattered bicrystals.

I sensed it casually, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a very large bicrystalline crystal under the pillar, and the pillar was rooted on it to absorb nutrients. I hurriedly expanded the resonance range, and suddenly felt that there were large and small bicrystalline crystals under each pillar and the purity was very high, but most of them were buried deep in the ground.

"Haven't you studied these pillars carefully?" I turned around and asked Ernst & Young, "Why is there so much bicrystalline liquid in it?" ”

"These pillars seem to have grown so large after countless years of accumulation by absorbing the fragmented bicrystals around them, because small crystals can be found around each pillar, but there are no slightly larger crystals, and the instrument has not detected any deposits of bicrystals underground. Researchers believe that if the planet could have been discovered earlier before the fungus began to grow, it would have been a huge deposit of bicrystalline, but now we have only detected the deposit in areas where there are no pillars. (Similar to the natural gas resources in the South China Sea, most of them are said to have escaped naturally over millions of years.)

It seems that these fungi can isolate the detection of the machine, but they can't isolate my resonance.

"And what do you think of the value of these deposits?"

"The quality is good, the bicrystalline crystals we mined can get pure bicrystalline after two purifications, and there are a lot of reserves, which should be regarded as our company's medium mineral star."

"Looks like we might have to make a deal, we only wanted to build a base here, but now that I've taken a fancy to the environment, if it's just a medium mineral star in your eyes, can I buy the ownership for some price? Of course, I can get you to finish the mine. "I want to buy this planet at a small price, and I must take advantage of it if I have a bargain~

"You need to talk to the CEO, and everything in the company is decided by him." Ernst & Young said he couldn't call the shots.

"Okay, I'll go to Sagittarius with you when I'm done here, and discuss some other things by the way." I IMMEDIATELY LAUGHED IN MY HEART, SINCE I MAY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SUCH A BIG ADVANTAGE, LET'S HELP ZODIAC A FEW MORE TIMES WHEN THE TIME COMES.

"As soon as I look at your performance, I know that you are definitely thinking about cheating on others." Taking advantage of the distance between me and Ernst & Young, Miku complained to me.

"Hehe, isn't this just to be able to get this planet in your hands, then this will be your base camp, now you have to find a way to attract the little animals first, don't you have a song, if you don't understand the language, use music to communicate~"

"Okay, whatever you want to hear, if you don't want to communicate in words, any song is pretty much the same, as long as it's cheerful or soothing."

"Let's have a song about throwing onions~"

"I've listened to it so many times, I still have to listen to it, I remember that you kept the single looping at that time... Miku said helplessly.

"Hehe, you don't get tired of listening, you sing well~"

"I don't care, then come on."

As we spoke, we came to the river, which was relatively empty, just right for singing. I put my phone on the ground, and Miku's projection gradually zoomed in and began to sing.
