(Chapter 18)
It didn't take long for Gu Fan and his party to leave the VIP room under the leadership of Kai Xiu, until their figures completely disappeared at the end of the corridor, and the soft-headed port director slowly put away the smile on his face.
After a moment's thought, he took out the communicator from his uniform pocket and dialed out a number with some trepidation.
"Sir, those pirates have failed, and that Ramch guy has just returned to Soma."
On the other end of the communicator, there is no extra sound except for the regular noise of the mechanical bearings turning.
"In addition, he brought two strange guests, who should be from the Emma Empire."
As his voice fell, a slightly confused electronic tone came from the other end of the communication.
"Emma?"
It seemed to be taken aback at such news, after a tense silence.
"I know, I'll take care of the rest, you just need to keep an eye on Ramch for me."
"Yes, sir."
......
......
It's a great place......
Riding in the luxurious shuttle, Gu Fan and his party soon came to the sky above Soma No. 4.
Through the window, he was now in front of a luxurious casino, and the streets were like colorful capillaries, stretching to every corner of this planetary city.
In the center of the city, a huge holographic projection is reflecting the graceful posture of the dancers of different races on the bright night sky of the city, and around the image, advertisements with XX Chamber of Commerce and XX production are constantly scrolling.
"We are now passing through the largest genetic clinic in Soma 4, which has the most sophisticated genetic modification technology in the entire Seventh Star Zone."
"The building next to it, like a bird's nest, is the Soma Central Mall, which is the largest market in the whole of Soma No. 4, where even large goods like warships can be traded."
On the side, as a guide, Cay Hugh introduced the facilities along the road smoothly like an endorsement, and was obviously familiar with the road.
Since the entire Soma-4 is actually a planetary city, the internal road zoning is as complex as a maze even for the locals who have lived there for many years.
Therefore, when receiving some important guests, for a variety of factors, a dedicated guide is naturally indispensable.
In addition to providing guidance services to guests, these trained professionals will try to understand the psychology of their guests as much as possible, so that they can open their wallets more happily and make the maximum contribution to the GDP of Soma IV.
Looking at the neon-lit streets along the road, and the various spaceships passing by, although it is still much inferior to the Martian market of humans in the past.
In order to be able to keep up with the ever-expanding trading volume of Mars, the Martian government even funded the construction of two world rings in low-earth orbit, directly opening business from the ground to the sky.
However, in Gu Fan's opinion, these businessmen living in the Soma Star District have already run this place quite well, at least they seem to be quite wealthy in life.
This time, at Ramkey's suggestion, the big man that the group is about to meet is none other than the governor of this planet, Wilm.
At the same time, the other party is also a director of Kayla Merchants, and even in the entire global enterprise, he has only a handful of power.
In this case, presumably that guy must have a lot of intelligence information in his hands that ordinary people can't access, and this is one of Gu Fan's purposes this time.
Thinking of this, he silently moved his gaze into the distance, looking at the huge building above the city that looked like a floating island, and his heart gradually gave birth to anticipation.
In order to ensure the smoothness of this trip to the greatest extent, Gu Fan specially selected some special equipment for himself and Xuefeng from the armory of the Queen of Glory.
For example, the Veil Walker cloak worn by the two of them can completely obscure the wearer's existence for a certain period of time.
The white mask, in addition to covering its own features, also has the effect of psionic masking, which can eliminate the influence that those disgusting psionics can cause to themselves to the greatest extent.
Psionic energy, which is a special power from the spiritual level, has brought a lot of trouble to the human race without the slightest talent, so human scholars have put a lot of effort into psionic protection.
As for the cross necklace worn on Gu Fan's chest, it is the most important thing this time, in short, this thing is a void shield generator that can be carried around, and its built-in sensors can automatically detect all objects that attack at a dangerous speed, so as to exert battleship-level protection for the wearer.
At the same time, when he was about to set off, Gu Fan also deliberately carried out a large-scale modification of the frigate captured from the pirates, and after painfully dismantling a precious Valkyrie gunboat, he transplanted some of the advanced modules into the old system of the spaceship, and finally relied on Xuefeng's program assistance, and the old spaceship finally barely supported everything.
At this moment, under Gu Fan's arrangement, the modified frigate has bypassed the detection of customs and hidden in the orbit of the satellite near Soma 4 in case of emergency, it can be said that Gu Fan has made complete preparations for this trip.
It didn't take long for the shuttle to pull up at a relatively steady pace, speeding towards the floating artificial island.
On the side, Ramch was sitting quietly in the chair specially prepared for Ram, staring intently at the news floating on the table from the beginning, and from time to time he would use his little paws to drag some information of interest, which looked very funny.
Just a moment later, with a slight jolt in the cabin, the ship finally landed smoothly,
Outside, it's much quieter than the hustle and bustle of the city below, with the entire floating island covered in a variety of carefully cultivated plants, and a dozen scattered manor buildings not far away.
According to Ramchi, this is the top area of Soma 4, which is a place for adults to live and rest.
As the hatch of the spacecraft slowly opened, I saw dozens of well-equipped and well-trained enterprise soldiers waiting in line on the tarmac outside the door.
In front of the guard, there is a human-tall mechanical body, which looks very slender in appearance, and its whole body has a dull silver sheen.
Just as Gu Fan was still observing the situation in front of him, Ramchi on the side took the lead in facing the strange machine.
"Squeak! Mr. Wilm, it was a pleasure to see you. ”
Wilm? Hearing this familiar name, Gu Fan once again set his eyes on the strange mecha and began to examine it carefully.
Could it be that the Governor of this planet could actually be a mechanical species?
Originally, along the way, Gu Fan had imagined a lot of situations for this meeting, including the possible dialogue between the two parties, and the approximate process of the conversation.
But now it seems that I obviously owe some consideration.
I knew I should have asked more......
After all, he's not good at communicating with a machine.
