System: My Doomsday Train-Chapter 623 - 298: "Mining Star No. 1." (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_5
"The vast majority of interstellar pirates come from wandering civilizations. After their own civilizations are destroyed, they drift through the universe as interstellar pirates."
"Hmm."
Chen Mang pointed to the newly built fridge in the corner: "Once the wormhole is activated, you go in first. If there are no checkpoints set up by the Kasha Civilization Federation nearby, open this fridge door and walk inside. Got it?"
"Un...understood."
Qiu Yisao looked somewhat confused towards the fridge in the corner. Although unsure of what was happening, he obediently hoisted the fridge and departed the Fixed Star towards his own train.
Not long after.
The pitch-black curtain in front of the train began to twist under an unseen force, and a wormhole entrance gradually appeared, its edges twinkling with mysterious starlight, like the neck of an elongated hourglass.
Faintly, one could see the blurred light spot that was the exit on the other side of the wormhole.
This was the second concealed strategic wormhole coordinate in this area.
Qiu Yisao’s convoy had already started assembling and was promptly drilling into this wormhole. Speed was essential since a one-time wormhole is only absolutely stable right after activation and can dissipate anytime after a certain period.
It could be ten minutes, or it could last ten thousand years.
It’s completely random.
No one can say for sure.
"..."
Chen Mang stood silently inside the train room, watching Qiu Yisao and the others disappear into the wormhole. Qiu Yisao had only acquired 13 concealed strategic wormhole coordinates of the "Kasha Civilization Federation" and didn’t know much more information beyond Qiu Yisao knowing this concealed wormhole leads to the "Kasha Civilization Federation".
There was no more information available.
Hopefully, it doesn’t lead directly to a military base.
That would be complete nonsense.
A total disaster.
Soon, only half a minute had passed.
The fridge door in the train room suddenly opened, and a bewildered and stunned Qiu Yisao stepped out from the fridge, looking around at the familiar setup. His throat moved slightly, and after vigorously rubbing his eyes, he noticed Chen Mang sitting to the side and nervously spoke.
"Sir...sir...senior."
"Everything is safe."
No one knew how shocked he was by the scene before him.
He recognized that fridge.
It was just an ordinary train accessory, even of a white grade.
But how did it happen that after he opened the fridge door, he appeared right back on the senior’s train? It spanned tens of thousands of light-years, and there wasn’t the slightest sensation of traversing the wormhole. For humans, it’s extremely difficult to pass through a wormhole with the physical body.
"Hmm."
Chen Mang nodded slightly but did not entirely relax his vigilance, slowly moving the control lever, steering the train into the one-time wormhole in front.
Inside the wormhole, countless beams of light sped past. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
In a matter of seconds.
The end was already in sight.
Once emerged from the wormhole, they were back in the cosmos.
...
"..."
This place was already within the realm of the "Kasha Civilization Federation," far from the Insect Race Civilization, and the scene before Chen Mang opened his eyes wide.
On the Star System Map, detailed conditions couldn’t be seen.
Reaching the place in person to experience what a Civilization Federation meant.
In front was a huge fixed star, emitting light and heat, and around the star, there were more than sixty planets orbiting it, each one a habitable planet, the scene was extremely breathtaking.
"It wasn’t like this before."
Qiu Yisao explained from inside the train room: "After the ’Kasha Civilization’ established the Federation, they gathered all the mother stars of the nearby civilizations together. This star system is called ’Star System 27’."
"One of the planets is called ’Peace-Seeking Star,’ and my civilization, the ’Peace-Seeking Civilization,’ is located on it."
"Our planetary Federation hasn’t set up any checkpoints."
"Senior...why not come to my house first?"
"Hmm."
Chen Mang nodded in agreement, "Then let’s go check out your home."
Newly arrived, it’s best to stealthily find a place to hide to understand the specific situation. Having a local to guide the way is certainly ideal.
"Let me see..."
Qiu Yisao looked at the big screen behind him displaying the Star System Map: "We are still some distance from the star system. It may take quite a while to get there, I’ll..."
"No need."
"I have a way."
...
Thirty minutes later.
The Fixed Star shot towards the star system in the cosmos at full speed, appearing close but still requiring some time to reach in reality.
As for Qiu Yisao’s convoy of trains, they were all linked to the rear of the Fixed Star train by "hair."
Sharing the same speed as the "Fixed Star Train."
"This is nothing like what I imagined Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin to be."
Chen Mang sighed softly as he sat in the chair, gazing at the screen.
He had imagined himself being in the "coffin" position.
Instead of the "dragon" position.
But it’s alright.
This strand of "hair" was what he retrieved from his dream, already tested by Ai with specific data showing it could extend up to 10,000 kilometers, which was extremely absurd, yet very sturdy, capable of bearing heavy loads.
The exact weight it could carry hadn’t been experimentally determined.
It could easily pull a few trains.
Before leaving.
Chen Mang fired and shattered that one-time wormhole, leaving no trace before moving on.
...
hours later.
The Fixed Star had slowed down its speed, reducing to that of a regular train, and retracted the hair back, merging into the One-Sweep Business Association’s convoy, appearing as just another member.
Extremely inconspicuous.
By this time, they had already entered the star system, weaving near several planets.
