Chapter 322: 161, urban circle
"Good evening, Mr. Lin Qing, I am the visa officer responsible for this interview, my last name is Yan."
In the spacious and brightly lit conference room, a young man with formal attire, black hair, and black eyes sat on the sofa opposite, smiling at Lin Qing.
In front of him, several sheets of three-dimensional projected data floated.
Beside the young man surnamed Yan, on two single sofas, sat two Intelligent Star inspectors.
Lin Qing sat on the sofa opposite, nodded slightly, and said: "Hello."
"According to the rules of the urban circle, the party initiating the invitation will have its member act as the visa officer, responsible for the interview and final approval. The Intelligent Star Group has dispatched two inspectors."
The young man surnamed Yan smiled and said: "As a prospective Star Patrol of the Star Patrol Council, I am responsible for your visa interview for entering the urban circle. In fact, the approval has already been granted, and the following interview is simply a formality. Once the interview is over, the visa process will be considered complete."
Lin Qing nodded.
"Next, Mr. Lin Qing, please answer truthfully."
The young man surnamed Yan said: "First question, Mr. Lin Qing, what do you think the 'urban circle' is?"
Lin Qing said: "A concession area from two hundred years ago."
The two Intelligent Star inspectors beside him frowned slightly upon hearing this.
In their past experience, visa applicants usually responded with positive aspects, such as economic and technological development, interstellar civilization exchanges, and recruitment of elite talents.
Unless the talents were forcibly signed by various parties, any sign of repulsion would usually result in a 99% elimination rate.
They also understood that this cosmic citizen from Earth, the first rare Divine Position holder, had hidden his talent for so long before it erupted. He was clearly not like those eager-to-please immigrants.
However, giving no face and responding so sharply displeased them.
"Second question."
The young man surnamed Yan smiled, "Given that, why are you entering the urban circle?"
"To join the Star Patrol Council," Lin Qing seemed not to notice the two inspectors, "and to clearly see the composition of this circle, to understand exactly who my enemies are."
There was no need for him to lie.
Nor was there any need to hide his hostility.
His close ties with the Autonomy Faction and his hidden talent until becoming a cosmic citizen already demonstrated his hostility.
No matter how he hid, unless he was willing to sign a servitude contract, extraterrestrial civilizations would never trust him.
Destined to be surrounded by enemies, why hide?
The young man surnamed Yan smiled and said: "On May 20, 2126, Earth will be completely open and truly connected with the starry sky. At that time, although you are an Earth citizen, you might be expelled from Earth, and even being expelled might be your best outcome. Have you thought about it?"
"Maybe." Lin Qing's face remained calm.
"There might be some things you don't understand."
The young man surnamed Yan said: "As an original life born on Earth, once you leave Earth, trying to transform into a star creature will be ten times or even a hundred times more difficult than on Earth. The difficulty will increase to the point where it is almost impossible."
He looked at Lin Qing and said: "Even... your Divine Position Trials on other planets will also be ten times or a hundred times harder. Have you thought about this consequence?"
Lin Qing was silent for a moment and said: "I know these things."
In the more than a year on Dusk Front, he had obtained countless intelligence and information. How could he not know these things?
He had inquired with Irenado and had already devised several countermeasures.
"It's good that you know."
The young man surnamed Yan did not continue questioning and said: "However, your attitude in the urban circle will inevitably lead to exclusion from all parties, even Master Qi and Dean Chu, despite contractual restrictions, still won't be able to help you."
Lin Qing smiled, looked at the two cold-faced Intelligent Star inspectors, and asked: "If I didn't have this attitude, would I not be excluded?"
"It wouldn't be any different." The young man surnamed Yan also smiled, "It seems you are prepared for the incoming storm."
He stood up, walked to Lin Qing, extended his hand, and smiled: "Welcome to the Star Patrol Council. Although there is still exclusion and different civilization factions, it is at least not as blatant as other places run by extraterrestrial civilizations."
This was Earth's etiquette.
Lin Qing stood up, shook his hand, "This is also what attracts me most to the Star Patrol Council."
"Yan Feiyu, is this over?"
One of the Intelligent Star inspectors couldn't help but frown and said: "His response and attitude are so terrible. He hasn't taken us into account at all..."
"So what?"
Yan Feiyu looked at him expressionlessly and said: "This is the Star Patrol Council's invitation. Does the Intelligent Star Group want to interfere? What? Is the Yuan Chen Civilization so special?"
The Intelligent Star inspector's face changed: "I didn't mean that, I was just commenting on his attitude. Don't misinterpret my words."
"Then don't talk so much."
Yan Feiyu said indifferently: "The Star Patrol Council recruiting people and allowing you to observe is already quite generous."
Lin Qing watched this scene from the side, raising an eyebrow slightly.
It seems... the Star Patrol Council, just as Chu Hongjun and others said, is indeed special enough.
It is said that countless life planets throughout the universe have Star Patrol Councils, all originating from a massively powerful organization in the universe.
Such a vast organization spread across the cosmic starry sky is naturally incomparable to the Intelligent Star People's Yuan Chen Civilization.
