Condon Planet.

Since human beings left the earth and entered the era of interstellar development, private planets are no longer a fantasy story.

The story of a private spaceship discovering an undeveloped habitable planet and making a fortune after development was endlessly raised in that era of space exploration.

At the height of space exploration, more than 60 percent of the planets were discovered by private expedition ships. More than 80% of the planet is contracted by private companies, so don't use it to grab huge fortunes and create one amazing legend after another.

It was during that period that the Santiago family came to prominence, and it has a history of more than 2,000 years.

John Santiago, the founder of the San Diego family, was a small interstellar smuggling ship captain back then. Like most smuggling captains, John Santiago is an adventurous guy. He piloted his spaceship through the vast universe and roamed the sea of stars, looking for every opportunity to make a fortune.

Although most planets have their own unique resources, as a rapidly expanding human society, habitable planets are still the most valuable planets. The discovery of every habitable star is no less significant than the discovery of a super gold mine on the earth, and the actual wealth is tens of millions of times that of this.

John Santiago and his Jade Beauty wandered in the universe for sixteen years.

During a nebula storm, the Jade Beauty suffered a heavy blow and was forced to float into a nebula, losing its ability to maneuver for a time.

It was at that time that they discovered a habitable planet after passing through that nebula.

This is the planet Condon.

The discovery of this habitable star completely changed the fate of everyone on this ship, and since then, the family with Santiago at its core has begun to rise on the planet. The six surnames of the Santiago family, except for Santiago itself, are all descendants of the crew members of the original ship. At its peak, one hundred and twenty-six surnames came together, and after more than 2,000 years of evolution, they evolved into the six major surnames that are now the present, as well as the famous Santiago family.

The sculpture of Patriarch John Santiago still stands in the central plaza of Peacock on Condon Planet, symbolizing the family's never-say-die adventurous spirit.

In fact, this family did rise to many well-known figures in the future, and it is in the inheritance of generations of outstanding descendants that the glorious inheritance of this family has been ensured.

Today, the family owns about 30 percent of the land on Condon Planet, which is a rather appalling figure, meaning that one-third of the planet is privately owned, and using this as a lever, the San Diego family indirectly controls more than 80 percent of Condon. Because of this, the planet is claimed to be a private planet owned by the Santiago family.

There is no place on this planet where the people of the San Diego family cannot go, whose will is the command, more effective than the new federal government. Even those civil servants, the police, have to be controlled by the Santiago family, and even the military has to look at the Santiago family.

Vice Admiral Chris Santiago, the garrison in Condon's orbital orbit, is a member of the family himself.

There are countless group companies that belong to the assets of the San Diego family, countless people who serve the San Diego family, and countless wealth for the family to squander!

This is a real behemoth that can make an entire planet cold with even a single sneeze.

After the Liberty Heart fleet jumped out, it began to sail silently and flew into the Condon Xingnebula Belt - the defense here was much tighter than that of the Tianhe Star Field, so everyone had to be more careful.

Under the cover of the nebula belt, the Heart of Liberty penetrates into a dense area of nebulae, surrounded by meteorites. These meteorites carry a lot of kinetic energy in high-speed flight, and in the past, as long as they collided with a starship, they would be like a bird to an airplane, and it was easy to cause the ship to be destroyed and killed. But since the advent of energy shield technology, this level of impact has not been a problem. The advent of atomic decomposition and regeneration technology has given human beings the means to obtain resources by decomposing matter, turning useless substances such as meteorites into resources.

"Remove Silent Mode."

"Silent mode is lifted, engines three and four stop running!"

"Turn on auto-alert."

"Turn on the automatic alert, emit a full-range probe, the frequency is 3.5, and the computing power of the brain is reduced to 30%." Snyder methodically gave the order. As a good lieutenant, he had to quickly understand the meaning of Renault's words. While Renault can just give the simplest directive, Snyder needs to consider what the meaning of the directive is behind and other relevant details, and make a more specific appointment. This allows things to be more efficient, while Renault can focus on what matters most.

He's doing pretty well.

Maybe it won't be long before he's up to the new captain, Renault thought.

Captain's lieutenants have always been the easiest position to become captains, and they have been thinking from the perspective of commanding the whole ship from the very beginning. Renault was very happy with Snyder, so he said, "Now you can rest, go arrange the staff on duty, Snyder, and come to me,"

"Yes sir." Snyder began to arrange the staff on duty.

It wasn't long before Renault was holding a book and reading it.

Seeing Snyder coming, Renault put down the book, and Snyder glanced at it, it was a "Condon style".

Snyder realized something.

Sure enough, Renault said, "We've arrived at Condon, and the next thing is to get into that place." Given Condon's situation, it's clear that going head-to-head isn't a good option, so we're going to sneak in. Do you have any good candidates to recommend? ”

Snyder thought for a moment and replied, "Hardy Creming, he's a Condonian, and he's familiar with it. ”

"Tell me about him."

"Hardy Cremin, nicknamed Clockwork, enlisted in the Army for six years, a former member of the Space Landing Unit, who was transferred to the Sky Bull for his outstanding combat performance and participated in the Mission Zero...... It was you who saved his life. ”

"Yes." Renault smiled.

He saved so many people in that battle that many people told him that he saved them, but he was not at all impressed.

On the contrary, Snyder's answer surprised him: "You seem to have all the information on everyone." ”

Snyder shrugged, "Since that incident, I've found that my memory seems to have been greatly strengthened, and I can remember many things after only one look. Unfortunately, this cannot be used in combat. ”

"But it can be used to command battles." "We are human beings, and we fight by wisdom rather than strength," Renault said...... It's not a bad ability. ”

"So...... If you could swap it, sir, would you be willing to swap your telekinesis with my memory strength? ”

Renault replied without thinking: "No way." ”

The two of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed at the same time.

"Okay, okay, how about giving you a chance to prove that I'm not being irresponsible and saying something nice?" Renault clasped his hands and looked at Snyder, "I'm going to take someone into Condor next." The Heart of Liberty is in charge of Inigo Ravel, but the Abrody also needs an acting captain. I'm thinking you're in charge, how about that? ”

"Me?" Snyder was a little surprised.

"Yes. In my absence, the ship will be handed over to you. Renault patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Snyder excitedly saluted: "Absolutely complete the task!" ”

"Then it's decided." Renault stood up and said.

An hour later, a ship broke away from the fleet, first circled the air, and then flew towards Condon from another angle.

Sitting in the spaceship were a group of people from the original Tianhe II, such as Renault, Claire, and Carmela, in addition to a new person.

Hardy Creming, nicknamed Clockwork.

To this there is also the addition of a member, Spark.

The puppy is obediently lying in Claire's arms, looking very cute.

Just like last time, before entering Condon, you first have to go through the inspection of the spaceport.

However, this time Carmela's superpowers were not used, and they passed easily - as early as the Tianhe Star Domain, Renault ordered the virus to make a batch of identities for everyone and a merchant ship disguised as coming from Jinli Star.

There are quite a few of them with such identities to facilitate later entry, after all, it is also very tiring to always rely on Carmela.

After passing the inspection, the ship landed in the city of Great Barbany on the planet Condon.

As a habitable star, there is no dome like Tianhe II, and people can walk freely under the sky and look at the fiery red sun in the distance.

Unlike the bustle and bustle of the earth, there are no skyscrapers and even fewer buildings flying in the sky.

In the Age of Discovery, the discovery of a large number of habitable stars gave people enough living space, and the pigeon-cage office building pattern has long been eliminated, and even the poor will have a set of their own independent houses. Only an overcrowded earth will continue to be so crowded - the more metropolises are less suitable for life.

San Diego is a remarkable presence on Condon Planet, but Condon Planet itself is far from being great in the new federal system. And a planet that can be called private really lacks enough support to develop.

Because of this, the city of Greater Barbani looks a bit depressed.

Of course, in fact, it is not a depression, but the inevitable result of a vast land and a sparse population.

Most of the people here live in abundance, living a leisurely and lazy life, and even the flying car in the sky is slow to drive. That is, in the center of the city, perhaps for the sake of liveliness, there are finally a few buildings, some relatively large crowds.

The spaceship docked right in the heart of the city.

It is only this kind of city that will allow the spaceship to stop directly here.

Coming out of the port, Carmela looked left and right and asked Renault, "What's next?" ”

"The old rule, find a place to live first, and the virus will collect information about the San Diego family and this planet. Carmela, you and Clockwork sell the ship's cargo. ”

The goods on the ship were obtained from the Tianhe base, which was not too valuable, but the quantity was large, and the processing could be sold for a lot of money, which was just used to provide supplies for the fleet. In fact, as the fleet grows, the need for replenishment increases, and Renault has discovered that he has to think about the survival of the entire fleet in addition to chasing the relics. And to solve this problem, it is not enough to rely on those looted materials.

Fortunately, the developed science and technology have greatly enhanced people's self-sufficiency, and if it is not too high-end needs, the general requirements are still relatively easy to meet. For example, for food, there is an ecological garden in the starship that can be grown and farmed.

But if you want to get more, you still have to go to the major planets to find supplies. That's why Renault needed to bring some goods by the way.

Carmela nodded and was about to leave, when Renault stopped her again.

"Carmela!"

"What?" Carmela asked.

"Don't sell it too expensive this time."

Carmella rolled her eyes helplessly.
