Global Era of Star trekking

Upon seeing this message, the shopkeeper repressed the urge to scold and softened his tone,

"High-quality shipborne main guns or secondary guns, or those designed for group attacks, are not available in this little shop of mine. However, I do know where you might find them, including the strange object you mentioned that can't be converted into ship components."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper paused and then whispered,

"When you head over there, remember to mention that it was I who referred you."

...

In the merchant district, Song Chi was looking around, searching for the "Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop" the shopkeeper had mentioned.

After turning a corner and walking deeper into the alley, Song Chi finally found the so-called Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop in a rather secluded corner.

"With such an out-of-the-way location, can the shop really have good stuff? Could it be a scam?"

Song Chi muttered to himself, a look of doubt filling his eyes.

After all, who would open a well-known shop in such an out-of-the-way corner?

Despite his doubts, driven by the thought that since he was already there he might as well enter, he stepped into the Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop.

The shop appeared quite unremarkable on the outside, but stepping inside offered a refreshing change.

The shelves in the shop were arranged neatly, and all goods were categorized and placed in different areas. At a glance, one could tell the shop was very clean and tidy, making customers feel comfortable.

Furthermore, the variety of items in the shop truly justified the "Multi-purpose" name.

Not only were there exoskeleton armors, energy pulse guns, and mining ship components, but there were also gene optimization potions, beginner and intermediate body tempering potions, nutritive potions, and so on. Additionally, a variety of weapons, hovercar batteries, cat-girls, fox-girl maids for sale, and the like were available.

Most importantly, there was a special section for Starry Sea oddities and ship components. With just a cursory glance, Song Chi could see dozens of oddities and ship components in these two sections.

By now, Song Chi had put aside his skepticism. Clearly, the owner behind "Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop" was not to be underestimated.

Dozens of Starry Sea oddities, some of which appeared to be of Purple Quality—what did this indicate?

It indicated that the shop was backed by a tremendously powerful financial chain. Otherwise, it would be impossible to stock such valuable goods.

Even not considering the other items, the oddities alone were valued at nearly a million strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin. And if the rest of the shop's goods were added, a rough estimate put the total value of goods in Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop at several million Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, or maybe even more.

Thinking this, Song Chi involuntarily took a cold breath. After the Ruins Market affairs concluded, he felt quite pleased with himself for earning over a hundred thousand strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin in one go.

But the scene before him now thoroughly dispelled that bit of pride, teaching him the true meaning of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Compared to the shop owner behind Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop, his own small fortune was nothing.

As he was lost in thought, a lazy, soft voice came from behind the counter.

"Another visitor? Who referred you?"

Song Chi turned his head and saw a tall figure wearing a black velvet dress and with hair coiled high at the back of her head, materialized behind the counter at some unknown point.

The figure's eyes were half-closed like silken threads, her fair arms were raised high, stretching lazily. In doing so, she accentuated the voluptuous form hidden under the velvet dress even more vividly.

Far away in the docking bay of the Floating Fortress, on board the Cangqiong, Song Chi's eyes instinctively shifted as two words popped into his mind.

"Enchantress!"

At the same time, the cloaked figure in Chenxing Multi-purpose Merchant Shop turned away slightly, averting its gaze.

Yes, the figure wrapped in the black cloak wasn't Song Chi himself, but a combat robot controlled by a brainwave remote control system.

Since it was his first visit to the Floating Fortress, it never hurt to be cautious.

In the brief moment he turned away, the beautiful woman behind the counter had slowly lowered her alabaster arms, and a peculiar expression flickered across her exquisite eyes.

Song Chi disregarded all this, controlling the combat robot beneath the black cloak, activating the communication bracelet again. Simultaneously, a projection screen emerged.

"I was referred here by the owner of Oak Merchant Shop. Do you have any strange objects that cannot be converted into ship components, as well as high-quality shipborne main guns or secondary guns with area-of-effect attributes?"

Click-clack-click-clack!

The sound of high heels tapping against the floor rang out as the woman walked out from behind the counter. It was only then that Song Chi noticed the woman wearing a pair of exquisite red high heels.

Yet as someone who had been a person of two worlds, Song Chi was no novice; his basic composure remained intact. He quickly raised his sight again, focusing on the woman's face.

Seeing that Song Chi was looking her way, the woman pondered for a moment and then pointed with her delicate fingers toward the oddity and ship component sections.

"You can go and take a look for yourself. Such oddities that cannot be made into ship components are rarely found in shops, but that doesn't include mine. You came to the right place."
