Lu Chen carefully counted the spirit stones in the cloth bag.

One hundred and one, one more......

It could be that the number of women is wrong.

The standard spirit stone is the universal currency of the galaxy, similar to the gold on the earth, with a huge value and a cultivation resource.

In addition, there are Imperial Jinnar, which is worth one percent of the spirit stone, and the New Federation Wanzu Coin worth one-ten-thousandth.

A Feiondi Zhou-type sailing ship, through modular design and production, can be sold to a thousand spirit stones.

And the eighteen-handed modified voyage ship that the woman crashed is now worth about a hundred spirit stones.

It can be seen that the cost of maintenance and compensation for the 100 spirit stones issued by the road dust is quite high.

He wanted to use this to dissuade women.

As a result, in just an hour and a half, the woman brought back a hundred spirit stones and changed her clothes!

Lu Chen turned his head in surprise and carefully looked at the woman's new clothes.

Dressed in a black tight knight suit, wearing fashionable goggles, and riding a yellow motorcycle airship in scavenger paint, it looks very sci-fi and full of wasteland flavor.

If it weren't for the long sword and wine jug hanging from her waist, Lu Chen almost thought it was another woman.

The woman pulled the goggles to her forehead, revealing her bright eyes, and the previous laziness and decadence dissipated.

"How's that, is it pretty?"

Lu Chen thought to himself, can the succubus still be unsightly?

I have to say that with a plump and vigorous figure, combined with the heroic appearance of the royal sister, she can control any disguise.

No matter what you wear, you look beautiful, generous, decent, natural, and without any pretentiousness.

Even just looking at her will make you feel better.

Lu Chen understood, this is a high-level succubus.

He is a dignified traverser, so he will naturally not be affected by succubi.

At the moment, he didn't evaluate the woman's dress, and asked directly:

"Where did you get these spirit stones?"

The woman pursed her lips and said unabashedly:

"It was lent to me by your Star Lord...... This broken planet's magnetic field is so disturbed that my ship crashes, so it makes sense for me to pay compensation, right? ”

Lu Chen confirmed that his eyes were the style of interstellar pirates.

The style is no problem.

The question is, how did this woman become so poor when she was so good at borrowing money?

Lu Chen guessed that the danger of the Pangu Corridor might be far beyond his imagination, and one person couldn't handle it.

got a hundred spirit stones as he wished, Lu Chen couldn't refuse a woman's invitation to form a team, not to mention that it was also an opportunity for him.

Went to sea two years ahead of schedule, escorted by powerful swordsmen...... If there was another beast Lori in charge of logistics, it would be perfect.

"It's okay to form a group with you, but I'm going to be the captain of the ship, decide the course, decide whether to explore, attack or retreat, and the money from the risk will be split fifty-fifty."

Road dust is like this.

The woman was stunned, and suddenly there was a strange feeling of being turned against the guest and occupying the magpie's nest.

It's also very exciting.

"You're very confident, it doesn't matter, as long as you can help me make money, but if you're a fool like me, you can't fit two fools in one boat."

There is no room for two fools in one boat...... Lu Chen understood, this is a succubus who has a clear understanding of himself.

"I've just checked the ship for damage, I need to replace some parts that I don't have in my car and can't make, and we need to go to Kumho City."

Goliath especially liked Lu Chen's professional expression, and patted the back seat and said:

"Okay, get in the car, I'll take you, this one flies fast!"

Lu Chen shook his head, hung the armor on the roof of the RV, jumped down by himself, clapped his hands and said:

"What's the use of fast, you have to be able to pull goods, my RV is very big, let's drive the RV into the city!"

Goliath reluctantly got out of the car.

Her outfit is specially prepared for cycling, and it is not as good as a dog when she enters an RV.

The two were about to leave, suddenly!

In the distance, there was a rumbling sound of a large-displacement flying motor.

A group of bikers soon surrounded the mountain.

They all rode large-displacement flying bikes, with different skull liveries, heavy metal punk style, heavy machine guns, and electromagnetic jammers.

Behind the biker is a heavily modified flying tank, a heavily armed fortress of heavy weapons.

Lu Chen is no stranger to this.

This is the biggest gangster on Rust Star, the Wasteland Knights, who specializes in collecting protection money from scavengers.

Lu Chen, who never pays protection money, has repeatedly escaped the pursuit of the Wasteland Knights by relying on the Hazard Guide.

He has a three-level hedging system: the first warning, the second warning, and the countdown......

Of course, this time is the exception.

Everyone was surrounded by bikers, and he didn't receive the first reminder to avoid danger.

Apparently, Goliath was there, and the avoidance guide didn't think he was in the slightest danger.

Catching the legendary ghost scavenger for the first time, the bikers are extremely excited.

Their attention was all on the road dust RV, and they didn't care about the ship at the top of the mountain.

The roof of the flying tank opened, and a large man leaped out, half of his body was a mechanical modification.

"RV kid, finally got you!"

Seeing the road dust of the RV, half of the mechanical face was green.

"Ten-level engine class, rusted iron shells, tattered scavenger armor...... You relied on this equipment to hide from Lao Tzu for three years? ”

But after thinking about it carefully, this kid is likely to be the kind of spiritual genius that the wasteland knights are extremely lacking.

The big man invited:

"I'm the second-in-command of the Wasteland Knights, Max, I can see that you kid is a rare spiritual talent, join our Wasteland Knights, and you won't have to run away in the future."

When Golia heard it, what, you dare to rob my people?

I can't help but say, draw my sword and cut it.

With a sword in the air, the main gun of the flying tank was slashed.

However, the flying tank shell was too hard to cut.

With just one sword, the tank slashed with a clang, causing the fuselage to lose its balance and fall into the valley.

Max was dumbfounded.

Is this an eighteenth-level sword spirit warrior?

He didn't dare to confirm the woman's identity and strength anymore, so he jumped away from the car and ran away, leading the biker party to choose a path and escape.

Gloria was not satisfied with her sword energy, so she jumped onto the top of the tank, plunged her sword down, and opened the scoop on the tank.

Seeing this, Lu Chen hurriedly shouted at Golia:

"Don't dismantle it - this tank is doing well, I'll see if there are any parts in it that work."

Only then did Golia stop, pinched her waist and gasped, took off the wine jug at her waist, opened the lid and drank freely, and then recovered some strength.

Lu Chen could see that in order to suppress the demonic nature in her body, this woman's strength was discounted a lot.

The sword qi is handsome, and the consumption of physical strength is too great.

Fortunately, no matter what, the woman is more than one dimension stronger than him, and she is quite reliable as a teammate.

Next.

Road dust blasted away several tank crews.

Drive the scavenging armor and dismantle the tank into eight pieces, removing all the valuable parts and high-end materials in it.

After gathering the materials needed for forging parts, Lu Chen turned around and entered the RV and started his eighteen-hand spirit piece machine.

Wash off the spirit pattern of the material and start reforging the spirit piece.

Goliath was slightly drunk, and her slightly pale face regained a red look.

The chaotic wine aura in his eyes fused with a little sword qi, and the succubus's pupils wavered.

"You're not going to the city?"

Lu Chen nodded and patiently explained:

"When I say lack of parts, I actually lack special materials, as long as the material is enough, you can forge any spaceship spirit piece that does not exceed the energy level of the machine tool."

Road dust didn't brag.

The high elf machine tool is the mother of industry in the era of spiritual machinery!

Although many civilian spiritual weapons are now injection molded and printed, the real high-end armor still needs high-precision machine tools.

Some are even cut and forged by hand.

This can't be helped, real high-level psionic materials, such as ancient beast bones, beast pills, ancient trees, and a few raw ores...... Once forcibly decomposed, it is difficult to maintain the previous strength and spiritual stability, and can only be finely cut by machine tools, or forged by hand.

Lu Chen's eighteen-hand Qihar spirit parts machine tool, although it has been some years and the high-precision calibrator has long been inaccurate, it is a 30-level intermediate machine tool, which can just process spaceship parts.

With his psychic skills and external detection assistance, as long as the raw materials are enough, any low-level spiritual weapon can be created.

Soon, Lu Chen forged the new spaceship spirit piece.

"Here, take a hand."

Lu Dust repiloted his armor and reached the top of the mountain, emptying the entire surrounding spaceship.

With Golia's help, the spaceship was leveled.

The two cargo compartments are gone, and they cannot be recovered, and it is difficult to buy cargo hold materials on the Rust Star that can withstand the intensity of warp flight.

Lu Chen then welded and sealed the cargo compartment interfaces on both sides.

Without a cargo hold, it does not affect the flight, and can even fly faster.

Wait until you make money to add a cargo hold, or simply change to a new ship.

Inside the ship, the problem is the engine and gyroscope.

The gyroscope is located in the center of the spacecraft, directly below the living module, and is the device that maintains the attitude of the spacecraft.

"The destruction of the core of the gyroscope was the trigger for the crash of the Goliath spacecraft. In order to compensate for the imbalance of the spacecraft's attitude, the engine can only be forcibly strengthened. As a result, its internal spirit pattern quickly heated up and short-circuited, and the forced landing failed and crashed. ”

After figuring out the cause, Lu Dust replaced it with the core reforge parts of the flying tank, and quickly solved the gyroscope problem.

On the side, while drinking, while looking at Golia, who was repairing Lu Chen's spaceship, patted Lu Chen's shoulder excitedly, and said:

"Repaired so quickly? Let's set sail! ”

Lu Chen looked at the expression of a fool.

"Not so fast...... It's the engine that's the big problem. ”

"Oh."

Lu Chen then piloted the armor to the engine room located at the tail of the ship.

Remove the engine shell, turn on the item identification function of the treasure hunt plug-in, and check the dead pixels of the engine core.

In the era of the end of the interstellar law, the concentration of spiritual energy declined, and the cultivators were not only far inferior in combat power to the ancient era, but also far inferior in divine consciousness.

Road dust's ability to detect items is a super advantage!

Next, he plans to disassemble the inner core of the engine in the rear cabin of the spacecraft.

Lu Chen has long been familiar with the Feiondi hybrid engine.

Clean up the surrounding items and spread a four-by-four-meter-wide white cloth blanket for psychic mechanics to disassemble and assemble all kinds of machinery without missing parts.

"A Fiondy Chou hybrid engine with thousands of parts and tens of thousands of patterns inside.

Remove all the parts with your bare hands, replace the damaged parts, and clean the rusted parts without damaging the spirit pattern.

Even I need to be prepared for everything and not be distracted in the slightest. ”

On the side, Goliath nodded her head like a chick pecking.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you!"

Lu Chen put on a simple dust-free suit, held a dismantling tool, climbed into the engine, and began to disassemble the engine with his bare hands.

The outer parts of the engine have been rusted a lot, and the surface texture is difficult to identify, so it needs to be carefully disassembled.

"Hoo ......"

After some disassembly, Lu Chen's hands and face were covered with rust stains, and his forehead and back were already wet with sweat.

"Fiondy will really save costs, the commercial engine of a hundred years ago is completely the same as the core of the current engine, and the Xia and Zhou engines are also from the same platform, and the parts can be used."

Warp engines, planetary formations, and wide-area spirit networks are the three greatest basic technologies of the interstellar era.

Fiondi's long-distance civil ships are known for their low price, durability and great potential for refit, and can be converted into cargo ships, expedition ships, star thief ships and military ships......

Road dust can be modified by one person.

Half a day later.

Road dust removed one hundred and nine damaged parts and cleaned some of the rusted parts.

Of the ship's parts picked up last night, eighty-seven of the one hundred and nine damaged parts could be replaced.

The rest, to be re-forged.

It was busy until dark that Lu Chen reinstalled the full warp engine.

After a few more detection by scavenging items, no dead pixels can be found.

"Not bad!"

At this time.

Gloria was already so drunk that she fell asleep in the chaise longue next to the porthole of the cockpit.

Lu Chen fills the spaceship's spirit pool with spare spirit oil.

The ship's engines were then activated, causing them to spin idle, and the test experiment began.

The blood-orange tail flame is like a sunset, and it is very beautiful.

Good looks are good engines!

The sound of the spout whistling is also nice.

A good sound is a good engine!

Road dust was tested for five hours in a row.

With a voice recorder and an infrared imager, the sound and temperature of the engine are recorded, respectively.

For five hours, the sound and temperature of the engine did not change in the slightest.

Not even Goliath woke up.

"Perfect!"

Instead of immediately waking up Golia, Lu Chen physically dismantled the ship's control system.

Overridden some of the control patterns and set the highest privilege to himself, including the remote control of his bracelet.

The second authority is set to shipboard artificial intelligence.

The third authority was Goliath's turn.

It's for her good, and it's for the ship's good.

After everything was done, Lu Chen drove the armored disembarkation and carried the important parts in the RV, the spare spiritual pool, drinking water, food and a change of clothes, all into the cabin.

As for the RV, it is too large to take away.

He could only reluctantly cut his love and leave it for the Wasteland Knight as a souvenir.

It's midnight.

"After testing for so long, no one has come to Rust Star, not even the second-level alliance imperial army of the first planet...... It seems to be unprofitable. ”

Road dust came to the cockpit.

Confirm that the ship's reserves of spirit oil are enough for a month of continuous flight, and ten warp flights.

Then, turn on the light curtain, call up the map of the star field, and set the course of the warp speed flight test.

"Start setting sail at a low speed!"

The engine's vector spout turned downward, spewing out a blood-orange tailfire.

The spaceship slowly took off and slowly flew out of the atmosphere of the Rusty Star.

……

There is no grand ceremony, no thrilling escape from the home planet, just a simple set sail.

Lu Chen didn't even wake up Golia, who was sleeping soundly.

Even though it was the first time to sail a long voyage, waking her up didn't make me feel more at ease.

Looking at the light curtain and looking down on the field of vision, this gray-yellow wasteland planet, the road dust was full of mixed feelings.

Subsequently, a farewell email was written to Wang Tianlin, which will be automatically sent out in an hour.

At that time, he was no longer in the Blue Valley Galaxy.

Leaving the dim atmosphere of the Rusty Star, the starry sky that greeted me suddenly became clear and resonant, like a sparkling lake.

After three years, the first time he left Rust Star, he had embarked on an interstellar adventure.

Lu Chen was very excited, but he was more apprehensive in his heart.

"Try to speed up, step by step, until you reach full power!"

The spacecraft continued to fly at a high speed, and the flight was exceptionally smooth.

Half an hour later.

The spaceship has flown out of the Blue Valley star system and into the vastness of interstellar space.

Road dust prepares to fly at warp speed.

Warp flight, commonly known as a jump, is not the same in nature.

Lu Chen took a long breath and was about to start the first leap in his life.

It could also be the second ...... If crossing is also some kind of jump.

When the warp speed flight is activated, it will leave a large area of spatial ripples at the starting point, which will last for several hours or even days, affecting the flight safety of passing spacecraft.

As a result, the Imperial Interstellar Traffic Act prohibits long-distance ships from initiating warp flight within the star system.

In the process of warp speed, the spaceship will be wrapped in a squeezed space bubble, which can squeeze away foreign objects, and is not afraid of crashing into ships, star beasts, or interstellar storms......

But afraid of hitting massive stars or black holes.

Therefore, the destination of the spacecraft flying at warp speed is usually strictly chosen on the outer part of the star system.

Before leaving, Lu Chen repeatedly opened the treasure hunt panel and repeatedly confirmed that he had not received a risk avoidance prompt.

"Confirm End Coordinates."

"Confirm the safety of the route."

"The warp engine is full."

"Speed up the countdown – ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!"

"Jump!"

The spaceship suddenly vanished.
