When Star-Lord left Earth with Yondu at the age of seven, Earth’s technological developnt was decent, but geniuses like Tony Stark had not yet erged. Even if there were so advanced technological products, a seven-year-old Star-Lord wouldn’t have known about them.
However, he did know that there were so novel things in his life back then, like the cassette player that could play music he received before leaving Earth. Now, in the present, intelligent smartphones are everywhere on Earth, and city life has beco increasingly interconnected.
As Star-Lord made his way here, he witnessed a lot and was amazed by so things. Of course, it’s not that these things don’t exist in the wider universe; it’s just that Earth’s developnt during the years Star-Lord was away exceeded his expectations.
“But this is also related to Earth’s long-standing situation. If Earth were a unified federation, perhaps the adoption rate of advanced technology would be even higher,” Star-Lord shared his thoughts on Earth’s current technological developnt.
In the universe, any civilization capable of interstellar travel is not like present-day Earth with over a hundred countries and various factions vying for resources. Civilizations capable of breaking free from their star systems, apart from those at the galactic center, tend to be more unified on the surface.
In such cases, resource utilization and technological developnt reach their maximum potential.
“Well, what you’re saying is sothing we want to change. Besides Earth’s changes, could you also tell us about the central civilizations in the universe? I’d like to learn more,” Tony nodded and asked, curious about the central civilizations as well.
Tony and the others were not oblivious to the situation Star-Lord ntioned; otherwise, they wouldn’t have readily agreed to join Lin Rui’s alliance when he proposed it. Establishing a federation of Earth was indeed the only way to venture beyond the solar system. However, Tony didn’t ntion that they were already slowly implenting this plan.
“Sure, but the universe is vast, and there are many formidable civilizations. I’ll give you a brief overview. Comparable to Earth’s situation, Xandar is possibly an advanced civilization that Earth could learn from,” Knowing what Tony was most interested in, Star-Lord nodded and began introducing the advanced civilizations in the universe, starting with the peace-loving Xandar.
anwhile, Lin Rui and Peter were sleeping on the adjacent sofa while Star-Lord and Tony discussed the developnt and basic information of advanced civilizations in the universe. Tony’s eyes sparkled as he listened.
On Earth, Tony was already at the top in terms of wealth, status, and power. However, if he were to step into the universe, he wouldn’t be as significant. So, Star-Lord’s return wasn’t just a hocoming for him but also an inspiration for those on Earth who had the potential to interact with extraterrestrial civilizations.
As Star-Lord and Tony continued their conversation about technological advancents in various aspects of the universe, Lin Rui lay sleeping on the couch. In his subconscious, a system notification had already sounded before Captain Rogers and the others left. However, Lin Rui was too busy at the ti to pay attention.
After everyone else had left, he fell into a deep sleep, and his consciousness drifted into his mind.
In Lin Rui’s ntal landscape, one-third of the main quest about protecting Earth had passed. Clearly, after driving Dormammu out of Earth, Lin Rui had completed one-third of the quest.
Surprisingly, this ti the system rewarded Lin Rui with half a million reward points, sothing that hadn’t happened before. After all, the main quest was not yet fully completed.
Looking at the shimring gold reward points, Lin Rui didn’t seem overly excited. Perhaps this was due to his increased strength.
Half a million reward points were indeed substantial and would allow Lin Rui to exchange for many high-level items in the System Shopping Center.
However, at this mont, Lin Rui didn’t seem to have a pressing need for them unless he could instantly receive one and a half million reward points, which would elevate his power to the S-rank. That would truly excite him.
“Half a million… I can’t help but feel that the system has beco more generous since the bug disappeared,” Lin Rui muttered, although not overly excited.
Back when the bug was still present, Lin Rui always felt that the reward points were insufficient. However, since the bug disappeared, even though Lin Rui hadn’t completed many quests, the system had been generous with reward points.
It had already given him half a million before fully completing the main quest, and when it was completed, he would receive over a million.
After mumbling to himself, Lin Rui didn’t dwell on it. After all, the more reward points, the better. Moreover, Lin Rui had analyzed the bug’s existence before, and its disappearance should be a good thing for him.
“Adding the reward points from the hidden quest completed during the Dark Elf invasion, I’m quite well-off now,” Lin Rui said, looking at the flickering golden numbers.
He then opened the System Shopping Center and started browsing. With so many reward points, he needed to exchange for sothing; he couldn’t let them go to waste.
Also, since Lin Rui had chosen to rely on his practice cultivation technique for growth, he wasn’t heavily dependent on external items. Therefore, he could exchange it for many other things.
“Infinity Stone Interdiate Usage Manual? This suits my current needs, but it costs a hundred thousand reward points. Are they trying to rob ?” Lin Rui couldn’t help but complain when he saw that the Magic Cube Interdiate Usage Manual he wanted to require so many reward points.
However, complaints aside, Lin Rui knew the imnse power of the Magic Cube itself. With his current strength, if he could truly unleash the Magic Cube’s full power, he might not have been so powerless during Dormammu’s invasion. So, this Interdiate Usage Manual was indeed very valuable.
Afterward, Lin Rui opened the System Shopping Center and began to browse. With so many reward points, he needed to exchange for sothing; he couldn’t let them go to waste.
Also, since Lin Rui had chosen to rely on his practice cultivation technique for growth, he wasn’t heavily dependent on external items. Therefore, he could exchange it for many other things.
