Chapter 751: Chapter 745: Keep a Low Profile Part 1
The entire Capital Star region of the Galactic Federation is vast, encompassing three nearby planetary systems. Although these three systems aren’t as expansive as the Solar System, the closest distance between them is over a light year, and the furthest is about 2.2 light years. These three systems form a triangle, and the entire Capital Star region consists of nine administrative stars, or nine inhabitable planets.
These nine planets have clearly been transformed through the tremendous efforts of the Galactic Federation. It seems that they have all been modified by the source of life. Although each one has its distinct scenery, all are quite extraordinary.
The system Finn Lewis and his team are in is the economic, political, and cultural center among the three and the most prime district of the Capital Star region. There’s not a huge population, but neither is it too small. The total population is 280 billion, with about 180 billion living in space and the remaining 100 billion living across the four administrative stars within the system. On average, each administrative star has a population of less than 50 billion.
As Finn arrived, his flagship had already been registered. The Blue Bird, the main control intelligent brain in charge of the entire star field, allocated a permit to him. Finn didn’t need to use other personal intelligent systems here; the Luna Starfield was the personal intelligent system assigned to Finn by the star network, thus it had its own authorization here.
The main control intelligent brain in charge here, the Blue Bird, communicated directly with the Luna Starfield. They’ve already backed up Finn’s identity and the identities he brought with him in the Capital Star region. Additionally, without anyone noticing, Luna Starfield backed up Kay Lee’s identity under Finn’s command. As such, Kay Lee became Finn’s spouse here and had her identification too.
“What do I need to do next?” Finn asked after landing on the planet.
“Your highness, you are first required to purchase a residence here. As royalty, especially nine-star royalty, you should at least possess a villa here as a symbol of your status. Kay Lee also needs to process her federal personal intelligent system and other business,” Luna Starfield suggested.
“Okay, I understand, arrange the next steps for me,” Finn responded.
“Let’s buy a sky car now. It’s not only for you, highness, but also for your spouse and your bodyguards,” Luna Starfield briskly said.
The bodyguards accompanying Finn were GS200 combat robots who had come to report. Finn had exchanged for them during his last visit to the Galactic Federation. Since there never seemed to be an opportunity for them to report, Finn now had them come here to report directly. These GS200 combat robots were entirely different from the T series. Each of their intelligence levels was on par with that of the T2500 intelligent robots, but they possessed huge combat power and the ability to combine with each other.
Most importantly, each of them had their biological weapon accessories and carried potent weapons, which was good news to Finn. His enemies were here, and although they hadn’t shown up so far, they could at any moment.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Dunn Monty, rent two sky cars. Then we’ll go to the car dealership,” Finn instructed.
“Yes, your highness,” Monty responded. Although sky cars could be purchased online, Finn didn’t want to wait here. Once they bought a car, they could drive away directly. His bodyguards behind him could fully handle the driving task, and besides, Finn didn’t believe that these sky cars lacked autopilot, considering even his Goddess of Light car had autopilot Xeon.
The sky car rental company was nearby at the spaceport. The people living on this planet were the elite of the entire Galactic Federation, or more specifically, the entire elite of the Capital Star region. They made the highest income in the federation, so the cost of living in the Capital Star region was by far the highest in the Galactic Federation. This is particularly true for Blue Bird Star, where Finn currently was, which had the highest cost of living in the entire federation.
Therefore, anyone who could afford to live here was certainly wealthy. But, not everyone who came here was prepared to ride a car. These rental companies naturally catered to this niche market, providing top-notch services to the wealthy, thereby making money. Finn only waited on the spot for fewer than three minutes before three sky cars arrived to pick him up. These fully automated sky cars were voluminous, with widths about twice that of Earth cars and lengths comparable to a few extended-length vehicles from Earth.
They looked somewhat square but very fancy. Three cars were enough to seat thirteen people. Finn, Kay Lee, Dunn Monty, and two bodyguards sat in the first car, while the other eight bodyguards took the two cars at the back. Each car had a bodyguard at the wheel, but they’d automatically driven over.
“Take me to the nearest sky car dealership. What’s the best brand?” asked Finn, who wasn’t familiar with this.
“The Star Group product, Silver Wing,” Luna Starfield immediately answered.
“To the nearest flagship store, then,” Finn nodded and instructed. Even though advanced transportation technology in the Galactic Federation could mean doing away with traditional dealerships, they never cancelled this oldest model of shopping. After all, shopping is a basic human need. Whether rich or average, people must shop, and it isn’t always online. Often, shopping depends on ambiance.
For high-priced items like sky cars, this is the case. Despite both Silver Wing and other sky car brands accepting online orders with home delivery, they also accommodated in-store shopping. What’s more, they had many visitors, as the shops provided free test drives of new cars. These physical experiences couldn’t be replicated in a holographic simulation.
The sky car headed straight to the largest Silver Wing flagship store. Upon arriving, Finn marveled at the wealth of the Star Group. As part of the Star Bank conglomerate, the Star Group was undoubtedly impressive. According to Luna Starfield, it seemed the Star Group wasn’t owned by any royal family. As for who specifically owned it, that was unknown, but it was none of Finn’s concern. After all, he was here merely to shop.
