Give them a little funny shock

Chapter 470: 566 was captured (I)

"Mom, I went to the sun today, and asked big brother Wu Yun to take me to Malut and Kobitoya. Look, these are the photos I took there."

"We also went to the Oort Cloud at the edge of the solar system. Brother Wu Yun told me that the so-called 'Oort Cloud' is actually a spherical cloud surrounding our solar system. It is composed of some residual materials at the beginning of the birth of the solar system. I really learned a lot of interesting knowledge today!"

“Also, we went to…”

This journey around the entire solar system lasted about two hours. It must be said that when Wu Yun was inferior to others, he was still able to endure humiliation.

Extremely able to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens.

As a children's tour guide, Wu Yun did a great job guiding eight-year-old Leah, giving her an extremely fulfilling and meaningful journey. In just two hours, Leah gradually developed an infinite yearning for the vast universe.

Many people may never leave their galaxy, the Whirlpool Galaxy, not the star system, throughout their lives. In this interstellar age, people still occasionally visit other star systems in their own Whirlpool Galaxy to visit relatives.

But for an ordinary person, this may be the farthest place they can go in their lifetime - the edge of a spiral galaxy, hundreds of thousands of light years away, this may be the farthest place they will ever go in their lifetime.

Even though the life span of humans today, of course, refers to aliens, has been measured in units of 100,000 years, compared to the length of hundreds of thousands of light years, this mere 100,000 years is too short... Well, it's not that short. There are enough things and content in a large galaxy to go to. Most people don't need to go to other places.

As for the reason, it is enough to travel and have fun at home. As for the farther distance, those are places that only some travellers and backpackers will often go.

The Covenant has not yet mastered the technology of long-distance teleportation exceeding tens of millions of light years, and even if it did, this technology would not be applied to civilian aircraft so quickly.

Therefore, nowadays, if you want to travel to another galaxy, even if it is a nearby neighboring galaxy, a general civilian flight will take at least six hours. For some more distant places, those that are more than 500,000 light-years away or even a million light-years away, it will take even longer.

Probably a dozen hours, or even a day, or even several days.

As for the longest ones, such as another galaxy cluster hundreds of millions of light years away, it will take even longer. As for another supercluster or even a supercluster, the time required on the way will be even longer.

Of course, a dozen days, or even dozens of days, of last month’s journey was not enough to stop those experienced hikers. After all, this is the power of technology. Compared with the long lives of hikers, these few months are just a short moment in their lives.

In the distant past, when humans had not yet left their home planet and exploration of space was extremely limited, a journey of several days was already long enough, after all, the human lifespan at that time was only a mere hundred years.

Later on, when human lifespan exceeded 500 years, their footprints had already begun to spread throughout the solar system.

At this time, a few days of travel is no longer worth mentioning, and a few months of time is nothing. After all, compared to a long life of hundreds of years, this time is not that long.

In the past, people would often ask, "How many decades can a person live for?" But later, people would ask, "How many fifty years can a person live for?"

As for now, they would say, "How many ten thousand years can a person live?" Although life expectancy is always increasing, it seems that such words will always be popular.

Just like Wu Yun often said: "Damn it, where did I get so much money? Why don't you just rob?"

Of course, if you were to ask Wu Yun how many ten thousand years he has in his life, he would probably tell you this:
"Haha, that's a lot. Anyway, it's more than you have. Maybe countless more."

Although it is not really countless ten thousand years, Wu Yun's life span after taking the elixir of immortality is indeed very long.

"So what is the immortality potion that I talked about with Leah before?"

In the afternoon, Wu Yun finished his work and returned home with the game given by Leah. Lan Ya, who also followed him home, stopped Wu Yun and asked curiously.

"What's it got to do with you?" When the two of them were alone, Wu Yun's attitude naturally changed drastically. He looked at the woman in front of him with great displeasure and said.

"I'm just asking. Of course, you don't have to say anything you don't want to say." Blue Ya shrugged, but at the same time, a banknote appeared in her hand.

"It's really hot." Blue Crow fanned himself with the 100-coin bill. "Why does the temperature feel a bit high today? How strange."

As she spoke, she looked at Wu Yun: "Is it because of you? I remember you said you were practicing some fire-based technique."

Wu Yun didn't say anything, just staring at the banknotes in Lan Ya's hand. Noticing Wu Yun's look, Lan Ya smiled.

Since living with Wu Yun, she has smiled more often. Of course, she herself is not aware of this.

But this is not important. The most important thing now is that Wu Yun is obviously attracted by the money in his hand. Since knowing some of Wu Yun's "hobbies", Lan Ya also has the means to control Wu Yun.

For some reason, this guy loves money very much, no matter which country's currency it is. Of course, compared to this kind of currency, he likes gold more, which can be circulated as hard currency in most civilizations.

Even in the technologically advanced Star Alliance, gold is still a rare precious metal. Although the Star Alliance already has the ability to mass-produce gold, the demand for gold is too great.

Moreover, the cost of mass production of gold is not low, and the output is not really high. At the same time, due to environmental protection reasons, the gold production project is also under the strict control of the Star Alliance government.

It is precisely because of these properties of gold and its many uses in industry that gold is still very important even for super civilizations such as the Star Alliance and the Galactic Empire.

However, Blue Crow would never give Wu Yun gold, because that was relatively expensive, and there was no need to pay a bit of gold to ask Wu Yun for help.
