242: The mystery of missing animals, the angry system?

“What I mean, do you still not understand?”

The Grand Manager’s eyes gleamed.

“A comprehensive Apocalypse, carrying billions of star crystals, and wanting to observe animal beasts—all of this highlights the other party’s noble status.”

“This kind of setup is something even ordinary royal family members might not achieve. This distinguished guest is very likely a direct descendant of a royal family from an advanced technological civilization, and a highly valued direct descendant!”

“A direct royal descendant?” Ster was startled again.

“That’s right, Ster. This distinguished guest is most likely a direct member of a royal family from an advanced technological civilization. Although I don’t know why he came here to replenish military supplies, you did quite well this time. Although a hundred trillion crimson thunder currency is not a small sum, fifty-six billion star crystals are even more precious.”

The Grand Manager seemed somewhat satisfied, and slowly said, “Go quickly and serve the distinguished guest, and convey my regards.”

“Okay, Grand Manager, what about the animal beasts?” Ster asked again.

“I will contact them. If there’s any news, I’ll inform you immediately,” the Grand Manager said.

“Yes!”

Ster responded and immediately hurried back to Lin Yang, respectfully saying, “Esteemed Sir, the Grand Manager has already given instructions. You can freely choose any goods worth a hundred trillion crimson thunder currency sold in this market, and he sends his regards.”

“Mm.” Lin Yang nodded, then communicated with the System.

With an unexpected hundred trillion in resources, he naturally had to carefully plan how to make the most suitable purchases.

As for weapons, he had already bought almost enough. The market only sold peak SS-grade technological weapons at most.

SSS-grade peak technological weapons were non-sale items of the Red Thunder Empire.

This was understandable.

After all, if the most powerful weapons were all sold and then bought by enemies to fight back against themselves, that would be quite laughable.

Therefore, no matter what kind of technological civilization, they usually would not sell their most powerful weapons, only the next best.

As for resources, Lin Yang thought he could buy more.

Although he could now mine resources from the Solar System, when it came to resources, you could never have too much!

Moreover, the Robot team’s mining efficiency was honestly not high.

Furthermore, for the country to enter the interstellar era, the resources needed would be massive.

Ultimately, the System provided a purchase list: seventy percent for resources and thirty percent for other special-category weapons.

Ster immediately arranged for the Robots to start preparing the goods.

At the same time, he invited Lin Yang to the VIP room and softly said, “Distinguished Sir, please wait a moment. Regarding your request to purchase special animal beasts, the Grand Manager is already coordinating it, and there will be news soon.”

“Oh…” Lin Yang responded, then feigned indifference, “Why does a large Guiyun Star not have a zoo? It even requires special coordination. They are just some animals. Don’t you usually go to zoos for fun?”

“Go to a zoo for fun?” Ster’s expression became strange. “Distinguished Sir, we don’t have that privilege.”

“Then your children don’t receive education in that regard?” Lin Yang asked again.

He was incredibly curious about this question.

It was clearly just the most ordinary zoo, yet it felt like it had become a high-class, exclusive place for royalty here.

It utterly baffled him.

Ster instantly explained, “Distinguished Sir, regarding the knowledge education of animal beasts, we have various video materials.”

“Hmm? So, you only watch video materials for education, and not real animals?” Lin Yang was a little surprised.

“Yes, Distinguished Sir.”

“…” Lin Yang was a bit speechless.

He didn’t know how to describe his current mood.

It was very strange, in any case.

Logically speaking, the more powerful a civilization, the simpler it would be to cross interstellar space, and thus it should be simple to collect various strange creatures.

But why had the Red Thunder Empire fallen to the point of only showing video materials?

This made him unable to understand.

If this was the future development direction of Blue Star, wouldn’t that be too absurd?

The thought of ordinary people losing the opportunity to see real living animals felt bizarre.

“Ster, I’m very curious about the lifestyle of ordinary people here, such as work and entertainment. Could you tell me about it?”

After a pause, Lin Yang asked a question he had been curious about since entering Guiyun Star.

“The lives of ordinary people?”

Ster was a bit unclear why Lin Yang would be interested in the lifestyle of ordinary people, but still replied:

“Distinguished Sir, many ordinary people in our empire no longer work. Most of the work is done by Robots. Ordinary people can choose to buy high-level Robots to work for them and earn income.”

“As for entertainment, there are many forms of entertainment in the virtual world, and many captivating games.”

Lin Yang’s eyes blinked.

Buying Robots to work for oneself?

Is this the future direction of development?

People sitting at home, with work completed by Robots?

It must be said, this was indeed a solution, but he was still curious: since they didn’t need to work, they should have more time and freedom to enjoy life.

So why had something as basic as a zoo disappeared?

However, these questions were a bit too basic, and he was afraid that asking them directly would expose some issues.

After all, he was currently disguised as someone from another advanced technological civilization, so he certainly couldn’t ask such fundamental questions.

But it was precisely these fundamental questions that prevented him from unraveling the mystery of the disappearing zoo!

This made Lin Yang a bit frustrated.

But, the next instant, the System’s voice suddenly rang out: “Host, you do not need to be annoyed. The System already knows why there is no zoo here.”

“Hmm?”

The System’s sudden words made Lin Yang pause, then he became confused: “Didn’t you just tell me to ask directly? How do you know now?”

“Responding to Host, the System was indeed unclear about the reason just now, but after this period of attempts, the System has cracked Guiyun Star’s intelligent System, successfully hacked into it, and found some things, thereby analyzing the reason why there is no zoo here!”

“So, you told me to ask directly just now because you hadn’t successfully hacked into Guiyun Star’s System yet?” Lin Yang’s eyes became strange. “You wouldn’t have been trying to hack into this System all along, but didn’t have a sure grasp just now, so you told me to ask directly, right?”

He knew this System too well.

If the System had been 100% confident just now, it would definitely not have told him to ask directly, but would have said to please wait!

But since it told him to ask directly, that indicated that the System also wasn’t 100% sure it could successfully hack into Guiyun Star’s System just now!

This was quite a big discovery!

“You don’t even have 100% confidence in hacking into a System of a Level 3 peak technological civilization?”

Lin Yang found it very unbelievable.

Given the System’s demonstrated abilities, it shouldn’t be that unreliable, right?

The System, upon hearing this, seemed a bit angry: “Host! Please watch your wording! The System is not without confidence; it’s just that the living System here is linked to the entire Red Thunder Empire’s super intelligent brain butler System.”

“The System just didn’t want to disturb that incompetent intelligent brain and waste some time with it, otherwise, the System could conquer this trash System in minutes!”

Lin Yang: “…”
