4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 1933: Rare Treasures

'Boom boom'

The city was slowly shaking.

Although the octopus-like driver looked accustomed to it, the people around him were not.

They all showed expressions of horror. Under this tremor, many people began to hide and flee into the surrounding buildings.

They...seem to feel safer inside the building?

Maybe they haven't experienced many earthquakes.

"What's going on with this earthquake?" Lin asked the driver.

"It is said that some... relics of this space station were discovered recently." The driver said, "It seems that activating these relics caused the space station to vibrate."

"Ruins?" Lin continued to ask.

"Yes." The driver said, "It is said that these are some high-tech facilities left by the previous owner of this space station... I think it is best to dismantle all these things. Who knows what problems it will cause? They insisted on activating it, which is really..."

The driver was originally very silent, but now he started talking non-stop, but most of his words were complaints about starting this... relic, which had no practical value.

Although the surroundings were still shaking, the driver didn't care at all.

Looking at the terrified people and the calm driver, Lin's spy spent a very interesting time in the car.

Until the car stopped, Lin took out some...currency to pay it.

These currencies were some that Lin took from the base when she was creating this spy.

After paying, Lin's spy stood on the street, and the earthquake almost stopped...

In front of Lin's spy was a huge building. There were many Ershi people and some other creatures coming in and out of the entrance of the building, and the automatic door of the entrance was constantly opening and closing.

Above the automatic door, there are very conspicuous words displayed: 'Headquarters of the Void Exploration and Development Comprehensive Company'.

It looks like this is the place... But I'm not sure if this is the research team's headquarters. But even if it's not, it's... a base or something. We can go investigate.

Thinking of this, Lin's spy walked to the gate of the building and entered the lobby of the company.

This is a very vast area, but it doesn't look like a company but more like... a market.

Because you can see Ershi people or other creatures setting up stalls everywhere around. Some of them push hover carts, and some just put a piece of cloth or something on the ground.

The stalls were filled with all kinds of things, some looked like stones and some looked like small creatures...

After taking a look, Lin walked to a stall.

The place where the goods are displayed at this stall is a floating cart that is more than six meters long and three meters wide, on which are placed many... transparent boxes.

And inside these transparent boxes...

"Ah, visitor, take a look at these!" The Ershi people who were setting up the stall said quickly when they saw Lin coming over: "These animals are all precious creatures from the distant mother world of Ershi!"

"Look, this is a house cockroach, an extremely valuable creature on Ersh. It is admired for its rarity and... um, its tenacious living habits. Many collectors love them very much."

"And this is an oriental cockroach. Just look at its gorgeous gold-rimmed shell and you'll know it's also a rare treasure..."

"And this Eastern Turkic cockroach, they are..."

"Where did you get these?" Lin's spy interrupted and asked.

"My grandfather brought this from Ershi a long time ago," the vendor said. "My family has been breeding these rare species for generations, spreading them here."

From this point of view, the Ershi people here did come here from Ershi in the past.

But there is no record of such a thing there...why?

Thinking about this, Lin continued to walk to other stalls, ignoring the vendor's constant shouting.

Some stalls around were selling Ershi creatures, and Lin discovered that these creatures were very easy to reproduce.

Such as some small fish, small insects and so on.

Most of the Ershi people passing by are not interested, but there are often some non-Ershi customers who come to buy.

They seemed to be very interested in these Ersh creatures, and most of them said they bought them to make specimens for collection.

However, in addition to these Ersh cell creatures, there are also some vendors selling alien creatures.

Among these creatures, Lin discovered cold stone creatures and some other kinds of strange species. They said that they were captured from some nearby galaxies and other places.

At the same time, each vendor has a 'quarantine certificate', which proves that their species have been inspected and are 100% safe.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that it is safe to eat, but it will not cause any harm to the space station city and its residents...

Walking past the place where small animals are sold, you can see places selling other things.

Like a stone or something.

Here you can see many gorgeous stones like gems and crystals, but there are also some gray stones... which look very ordinary.

The vendors selling the stones also said that they were dug from nearby galaxies. Both the Ershi people and other creatures liked this piece of stone very much.

Next, there are places selling plants, souvenirs and the like.

After a general tour, Lin had a rough idea of ​​where this place was.

Although it is marked as the headquarters outside, it is actually a place where members of the research group sell things.

Because they often follow the research team to the nearby void to explore or do various tasks, during the exploration these members always bring back some local things, such as creatures, stones, etc.

These are the things they sell here, and of course they have been tested and are harmless.

In the impression of the people here, the Ersh Research Group is more like a company that sells alien collectibles than an exploration company.

But they don't just sell things brought back from alien planets, they also sell souvenirs made by the company.

As for Ersh’s animals, they are also raised within the company, and they will take some of them out for sale regularly.

Those that are sold have all been sterilized to prevent them from breeding outside.

To put it simply, this is a place where the Ersh Research Group obtains funds...not its headquarters.

The upper floors are used for storing goods, while the first floor is used for setting up stalls for selling goods.

Then the only option is to look somewhere else.

At the same time, Lin is also researching...

Lin almost knew what happened to the earthquake just now. It was actually...

Related to the expeditions of the flashing creatures.
