Chapter 95: Just Came Back
After a long journey, the battleship 547 finally arrived on Earth.
As usual, it cannot be moored on Earth. The Rim Alliance has set up an intermediary station on the outskirts of the Earth world, which is essentially a half-dimensional city, where the warships are parked. Qian Jing and the others need to change to a more compact and undetectable way here to go home.
This half-dimensional city has a low-key name, "Tianwai Town", the meaning is clear at a glance, and there is nothing to say. The site of the Ring Alliance is located here, which is actually very inconvenient for cross-world communication and trading, and it is far better to be located directly in the central city like the fortress star. However, the Earth has a strong Origin Power, and there is also a super powerhouse "Transcendent" in charge, even in the face of a behemoth like the Ring Alliance, it has enough autonomy. "Beyond the Heavens" is the boundary between the two sides, which is both the earth world and the earth world, which is just the right to define the right to govern.
"Don't get lost here, if you go to the earth of a parallel world, it will be more troublesome to come back, and there are a lot of procedures. Captain Chang Sheng had to stay on the ship for other tasks, so he specially came to send Qian Jing and Raisa: "Remember, we are the Origin Earth, the strongest of all the Earths." Keep an eye on your pass and don't let anyone steal it. Security here is not very good. ”
"Thanks for the reminder. We left the battleship and went straight to the ticket gate and went back from there. Qian Jing and the others shook hands with Chang Sheng, and then walked down the ladder of the battleship together.
Looking at it, Tianwai Town is full of earthlings. People from various alternate worlds, as well as humanoid creatures from other civilized worlds, have gathered here, hoping to enter. This entry specifically refers to "entering the origin earth", that is, the place with the best support for the rules and the most opportunities. It's just that the Origin Earth has always adopted a strict access policy, and would rather spend a lot of resources to continuously expand Tianwai Town to accommodate people who come here to try their luck, but also maintain extremely high entry standards to avoid the development process of the Origin Earth being destroyed by various traversers.
Communication is the theme of the multiverse, and the transcendents of the Origin Earth know this truth, and they will not make the mistake of choking on food. Starting from Tianwai Town, there are seven specialized parallel world earths for people with courage, strategy, and ability to "toss", which can be regarded as seven experimental fields. The good experience in the test field will be tested by time and repeated test, and will precipitate into the origin world, and then enhance the capabilities of all earth worlds. Bad lessons are also learned over and over again, so that they do not happen in the Source world, and they do not recur in other worlds.
Captain Chang Sheng reminded Qian Jing not to let them get on the wrong ship and go to these seven parallel earth test fields. These seven places are really "easy to enter and difficult to get out", but if you want to stay on the Origin World Earth permanently, you have to accept the test of one of these seven experimental fields.
Qian Jing, Raisa and the others were born with the residence permit of the Origin Earth, and this thing is very popular in Tianwai Town. Because the people of the origin earth can be the guarantor and bring people from other civilizations into the origin world, just like Huga. The two-headed ogre saves a lot of time and steps by eliminating the steps of the test field. He guarded his identity documents very carefully, and was clearly prepared for such a situation.
Perhaps from the very beginning, after he knew that Qian Jing was from the Earth of the Origin World, he already had the intention of making this trip. After all, he had two heads, and he was a magician who always thought. When the two heads didn't get into internal friction because they were arguing with each other, he was still quite smart. In short, he looked around with wide eyes and alertness, urging Lai Sha and Qian Jing all the way to enter the country as soon as possible.
The entry gate is very similar to the ticket gate of a train station, with a ticket inspector inside the glass house, followed by a scan for security checks. Qian Jing: When they came, there were three passages here, and there were dozens of people. There are no VIPs here, so I can only queue up honestly. Qian Jing asked Laisha, why don't you go back through the passage of the White Flag grocery store, or you can skip the queue here?
"If it's from Fortress Star, we can go back to Earth directly, and the cost has already been paid. Here, however, you need to pay two more Destiny Coins, and that's not counting the extra cost of opening a temporary storefront, which is more than ten Destiny Coins. Laisha obviously checked the relevant data: "Qian Jing, look over there, there are many shops, but there are no white flags." There's so much foot traffic here, and it's a gateway to all the planets, why don't we open a branch here?"
"That's right!" Qian Jing also agreed: "If you go to a place as far away as the fortress star, the rules will be restricted, and the goods will be the same." For example, the food is different, and the people in the two places are different, and just removing the toxin is a super troublesome thing. With the same earth, there are no such problems. ”
"If you take a closer look, who are these shops, and is one of them opened by the Celestial Empire?"
Qian Jing squinted his eyes and looked carefully, swept over one by one, and then shook his head. "It's weird. Even if our White Flag grocery store delays business opportunities because of some things, it can't be like this for all parallel earths, right? Wait, could it be because there is a problem with the White Flag grocery store on the origin earth, so all parallel worlds have been affected, so there are only so many foreigners' stores here?"
The term "foreigner" is a bit inappropriate, but it is graphic enough. Qian Jing saw shop signs in English, Russian, French, German, Japanese and other languages, but he didn't see Chinese, or more accurately, "authentic Chinese", which couldn't help but make people a little uncomfortable. With a bustling crowd and no shops, is it just excluded from the diverse global village?
"We have to have a branch here. Raisa said categorically: "The multiverse is very large, and the power of the white flag is very small now, and it is impossible to go out independently, but it can rely on the help of the relevant departments." But here, if the white flag can't stand on its own, wouldn't it be smiling and generous? If we extend our tentacles here, we can learn about the multiverse through here, and we can better go out in the future. Just ......"
"Just what?" Qian Jing asked as she looked at Raisa and frowned.
Raisa shook her head and didn't answer the question—she thought of Mr. Liu. As the old shopkeeper of the White Flag grocery store, Old Man She has been the right-hand man for a long time, and he has all the information about the channels of the White Flag grocery store, and it stands to reason that he should not know about this place in Tianwai Town. When there is no channel, it is also a good choice if you can come here and do business with the earth in the parallel world.
Why didn't he say it? Raisa naturally thought of the question. All along, what Laisha got from Mr. Liu was the feeling of "no way out", Old Man She's old friends were unwilling to help, various channels could not be opened, relevant departments were difficult to cooperate, and the outside world was sinister. If it weren't for Qian Jing, a super optimistic and adventurous guy, White Flag Grocery would not have the vitality it has now. This trip to the fortress star has not only succeeded in establishing close relationships with the relevant authorities, but also far exceeded expectations in terms of income alone. Qian Jing's Bean Sauce No. 1 earned back all the travel costs, and the method of opening a children's park to promote sales helped the White Flag grocery store clear most of its inventory, which is also a lot of income. Of course, the largest income comes from "tolls", and the net profit of more than two hundred fate gold coins is enough for the turnover of the White Flag grocery store for a long time.
Why is Mr. Liu so pessimistic? Why is he always like "I can't do it anymore, forget it, this is too dangerous"? She decided to take a fresh look at everyone around her. But Qian Jing didn't need it, and none of the things he did, except for sometimes being a little stupid, were not for the White Flag grocery store to be better.
The long line slowly moved forward, Lai Sha was thinking about Mr. Liu, and Qian Jing's eyes kept looking at the shop not far away. He is well aware that it is never easy to carve out a piece of ground in an already crowded market, and it requires hard work and fleeting opportunities. However, Qian Jing is very confident. He doesn't care about putting in the effort at all, after all, no matter what you do, you need to work hard. As for the chances, are you afraid of a portable steam engine with an infinitely close thermal efficiency of close to 100 percent?
As for the seal card made by the Dimensional Shifting Center, Qian Jing didn't think much about it, he couldn't understand what a great opportunity this thing contained for the time being. Far away in the "other world", the Grand Magician of Sami El is ready to use the Seal Kika to transform into a multiverse to save his beloved Fortress Star, while Qian Jing can only sell juice at this stage. Even if it was a steam engine project, he would have to improve his magic skills and learn more spells.
The two distracted guys avoided the pickpockets under the protection of Huga, and then passed through the security check smoothly, and the next thing was to teleport back to Earth. The portal used here is also the Ring Alliance Standard Type 3, which is stable and inexpensive, and can be reached to within one meter.
"Qian Jing, it's not easy to go to the fortress star, I'll give you three days off. Raisa suddenly said, "The warehouse is a little empty, and even if you come to the store, there is nothing to sell." I need to contact the source channel, you just need to take a break. ”
"Great, I can take Hu Gga home with me. Qian Jing looked very happy: "Boss, is the holiday counted from today, or tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow. You pay attention to safety on the way home, and we will call you if there is anything. With a serious expression, Raisa said one last thing before walking through the portal, "Don't forget, I'll be back to work at the White Flag grocery store in four days." ”
Raisa's figure disappeared behind the light curtain of the portal, and it was time for the next one. Originally, he was going to teleport back to the White Flag, but now it is not so troublesome and he can go home directly. So, he changed the teleportation destination and set off with Huga in tow.
Back on Earth, a familiar smell in the air. After staying in the fortress star for a long time, he has been affected by the desert climate and has a contrast, this is the first time that Qian Jing feels that the air of the earth can be so humid. Water was always by his side, and with a little concentration, he could let them provide the power of the water element. He hooked his fingers, and in no time at all, he summoned a small water mirror.
"There are so many people on the earth!" Hu Ga's eyes widened: "What do you want such a population to do, and such a tall building." The air is full of the smell of people...... Is this the power of the top-level origin world?"
"I don't really know what you're talking about, but we have a lot of people, at least far beyond the size of a fortress. Qian Jing looked left and right, and then pointed in a direction: "This way, my house is here." ”
In the absence of navigation, Qian Jing can easily get lost, but the way home is never lost. His home is in a historic residential area that used to be the compound of a factory. The people who live here are almost all co-workers. Now, in order to protect the environment, the heavily polluted factory area has been relocated, and the residential compound remains.
"The building here is not that high, and it looks much more comfortable. Little man, what is your identity on Earth?"
"I'm still a student, I'm going to school, and I work part-time at the White Flag grocery store, so what identity can I have? The building here is low because it's very old, and there's no elevator. But everyone wants to move out, and they're all waiting to be demolished. My family is over here. ”
"I can help, I'm good at this. You say no? Okay. Hu Ga's two eyes kept scanning left and right, looking east and west, and he was curious about everything. The means of transportation on the road, the traffic managed with traffic lights, the mobile phones that everyone is using, all kinds of snacks on the side of the road. He asked questions like a curious baby, and he didn't stop asking until he reached the door of Qian Jing's house.
"This is my home. Qian Jing knocked the iron safety door and shouted loudly in a clangling voice: "Mom, I'm back!"
No one answered. Looking at the time, it is likely that my mother is not at work on the weekend, goes out to buy groceries, or climbs the mountains to hang out. Qian Jing patted his body and found that he didn't have a key. He was dressed in civilian clothes from the relevant departments, and his keys and other things were kept in the school dormitory, in a box that he would only carry when he got home.
You can contact her mother with a phone call and call her back, but Qian Jing wants to surprise her. It was not difficult for him to open the door, draw a handle on the safety door, and it would open with a single twist.
"Is this really your home?" Hu Ga couldn't help but say: "Villain, I support you in escaping from prison, walking the maze or something, but if you steal something, it will be a little inferior." Don't forget, you're the winner of the Ultimate Magic Competition!"
"Hey, wasn't our Guardian Golem stolen?"
"That's robbing, and it's robbing the enemy. "Hurga has its own logic.
Qian Jing opened the door, the home was still the same, familiar with the feelings of safety and comfort. He came in with Huga, poured him water, and then reclined comfortably on the sofa and put his feet on the coffee table. There's nothing more relaxing than that.
Huga was not idle, looking around several rooms, trying to figure out the role of each thing. He saw the photos of Qian Jing when he was a child, and found some yellowed awards on the walls, in this way to understand the living conditions of people on the earth.
After a while, there was a sound of turning on the other side of the door, and Qian Jing's mother walked in with vegetables. As soon as she saw Qian Jing, she was immediately startled, and almost threw the carrot as a grenade with a wooden handle.
"Dead boy, where did you go, why didn't your phone turn on?!"
"We just got out of prison. Hu Ga replied with a good death.
