After a moment of joy, Song Chi quickly heard another piece of not-so-great news from his father.
Now that his mother had successfully advanced, they had to set off as soon as possible to take over from his second uncle and the others. To prepare for the potential action against the Blood Blade Star Thieves in a few months, Song Chi and the younger generation had to familiarize themselves with the environment surrounding the lair of the Blood Blade Star Thieves.
Otherwise, if they were to engage in combat later, they would do well not to hinder the operations, let alone be of any help.
"Dad, when exactly are we setting off?"
Song Chi asked further. He needed to calculate the time well, as he also planned to make a trip to the Floating Land Origin of Guangyuan and get his hands on that "Phantom Butterfly Drone."
Expensive as it was, the performance of the Phantom Butterfly Drone was truly beyond reproach. The upcoming action against the Blood Blade Star Thieves was meant to make up for the oversight of a "Red Quality shipborne component." The family had already devoted decades of effort to this end, its importance was self-evident.
In addition, having just acquired a large batch of Floating Land Origin, including quite a few of the First Rank, Song Chi, after some consideration, decided to purchase the Quantum Illusion Butterfly Class Drone.

Song Chao thought for a moment and then gave an answer.
"Probably in the next couple of days, why, do you have something else to do?"
After hearing Song Chi's explanation, Song Chao scheduled the departure for five days later.
Five days were enough for Song Chi to wrap up all his affairs.
After saying hello to his mother, who was adapting to the advanced Dragonfly on the warship docking platform in their district, Song Chi left home again.
Instead of leaving White Tower Floating Land immediately, he had just returned, and the Purple River Translocation Device would need several more hours to complete its new round of buffering. So Song Chi headed towards the city center, near the warship base close to the First Torch Academy.
He needed to purchase a standard Starry Sea shuttle of the Recon class.
In the standard warship base of Jiangyuan City, as soon as Song Chi stated his purpose, the base's receptionist warmly greeted him into the facility.
A standard Recon class Starry Sea shuttle is not a restricted type of warship. Soon, he spent 200 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin to buy two Recon class shuttles.
After purchasing what he needed, Song Chi piloted the Cang Qiong towards the outer star space of Floating Land. During the next few hours of waiting, he first stored one of the Recon class shuttles into the enclosed storage space he had previously allocated in the Ruins Market. The other shuttle was left aboard the Cang Qiong.
Having taken care of these things, Song Chi turned his attention to the thirteen alloy safes in the free-stalling area.
These were the spoils from the four large and one giant cities on the Starshine 001 Floating Land of the Starry Sea.
Because of time constraints, Song Chi didn't immediately open these alloy safes upon obtaining them. Now that he had some time, he could hardly contain his curiosity and wanted to see if what was inside these thirteen alloy safes made his previous efforts worthwhile.
Calling out the Cang Qiong once more, Song Chi went into the cabin. When he emerged, he had in his hand an alloy chainsaw.
The pump-powered alloy chainsaw had an Energy Level that could reach the Second Rank. This was just a medium configuration alloy chainsaw. If he had used the top configuration version, its Energy Level could reach the Third Rank, capable of cutting through the armor layer of a Third Rank Level interstellar warship.
However, correspondingly, this gadget was not cheap. The medium configuration alloy chainsaw Song Chi held was enough to buy the two Recon class Starry Sea shuttles he had just purchased.
Indeed, 200 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin.
It was only because Song Chi feared that damaging the contents of the safes might affect their overall value that he didn't just use the main cannons of the Cang Qiong to open them.
Securing the alloy safe, Song Chi began to slowly cut into it with the pump-powered chainsaw in hand.
The quality of the alloys of the Starshine Civilization that made these safes was evident, as even with the pump-powered chainsaw it took over twenty minutes to completely open the first safe.
Upon opening the safe, Song Chi instinctively glanced inside, and the next second, his heart began to pound fiercely.
The only thing inside the safe was Floating Land Origin, and it was of the Second Rank.
The Ancestral Aperture between Song Chi's eyebrows opened, and he promptly absorbed these Second Rank Floating Land Origins into the Ancestral Torch.
At the same time, he learned the exact number of this batch of Floating Land Origin.
200 strands of Second Rank Floating Land Origin.
Not a large quantity, but it was difficult to exchange for in the market.
Heartened by this first safe, Song Chi's gaze suddenly shifted, looking straight at the other twelve identical safes. If all these safes also contained Second Rank Floating Land Origin, then this operation would indeed be a huge windfall for him.
Then, Song Chi began his diligent journey of opening safes.
About half an hour later, the contents of the second safe cooled his fiery heart by a great deal. The item inside was not Floating Land Origin, but an unknown metal.
Considering how tightly it was stored, it's conceivable that this metal must have been very valuable in the Starshine Civilization; however, Song Chi couldn't get excited, for no matter how precious it was to that civilization, here in the territory of Torch Human Civilization, until its specific use was clear, it was just a pile of scrap metal.
Setting aside his previous optimism, Song Chi began to cut into the third safe.
