Chapter 403: "Ferocious" Groot (Second Update)
Chapter 403: "Ferocious" Groot (Second Update)
"Shop owner, the inventory is complete!"
The small smart drone inside the warehouse quickly scanned the area and flew to Max's front to report.
Max smiled, lifted the wristband on his right hand, and tapped it. A virtual control panel projected out, and he looked at Jerry:
"Mr. Carmen, please take out your wristband. I will transfer the 4 billion to your account right away."
"You know, this is my first time here. I only registered my identity at the space station and haven't had the chance to buy a wristband yet!"
Jerry looked at Max's wristband and understood that it was essentially the planet's version of a smartphone. He shook his head.
Max was taken aback for a moment but quickly recovered:
"No problem. I'll have someone bring you the latest model of wristband and the best translator. Consider it a gift with this transaction!"
Max assumed Jerry meant that this was the first time Jerry had left Asgard, not realizing Jerry was referring to Earth.
In less than two minutes, the latest wristband and translator were in Jerry's hands.
With identity registration information, the wristband only needed to scan Jerry's body to bind and be ready for use. The translator, attached to the earlobe, was also very convenient to use.
With the wristband and translator, the massive 4 billion transfer was completed quickly, and Jerry left the shop with Max's warm farewell.
He didn't immediately ask Max to help find a suitable planet and inhabitants. Instead, he decided to explore Xandar, the highly developed capital of the Nova Empire, to get a better understanding of it first.
Asgardians rarely leave the Nine Realms, so the Asgardian database only contains general information about the outer universe, lacking specific details.
To truly understand this universe, the major empires, and the intelligence between different planets, Jerry knew he needed to explore and learn on his own.
So, after a tour of the Market of a Thousand Races and purchasing some souvenirs, including laser swords, he left and began to wander around the Imperial Capital, guided by his wristband.
The smart wristband from the Heart of Xandar is different from Earth's smart wristbands, especially the 200,000-credit latest model Jerry had, which is packed with the most advanced technology from Xandar.
It not only has all the functions of a phone and a computer but also features advanced virtual reality technology, such as holographic calls, immersive movies, and games.
Jerry couldn't help but marvel that at a certain level of technological development, it indeed surpasses magic in many ways.
At the very least, many things that would require strong magical abilities can be easily achieved by an ordinary person with just a wristband.
Moreover, Jerry's wristband has its own AI system and a vast database. Even if he leaves Xandar and can't connect to the Heart of Xandar, it still offers many powerful functions.
Right now, the wristband acts as a know-it-all. Whatever questions Jerry asks on the way, it can answer, helping him quickly familiarize himself with everything.
He originally planned to visit the Imperial Library, but now he realizes it's unnecessary because the wristband already contains all the books in the Imperial Library.
"Shan Niu, what race is that?"
Passing by a fountain, Jerry pointed to a tree-like being over two meters tall, who was drinking water, and asked curiously.
Jerry named the AI system in the wristband "Dumbo."
"That is a Flora Colossus from Planet X. They are bloodthirsty and brutal, enjoying violence and invading other planets. They are highly dangerous, so please avoid contact!"
Dumbo answered in a cold, female voice.
"Don't drink the fountain water, you idiot! You're so stupid!"
At that moment, a small raccoon-like alien holding a transparent screen turned and loudly berated a tall tree-like creature.
The tree-like creature stopped drinking, looking a bit aggrieved:
"I am Groot!"
The raccoon-like alien seemed to understand the tree-like creature's words, covering its forehead in exasperation:
"You were drinking, I saw it just now. Don't lie!"
Seeing this, Jerry couldn't help but raise an eyebrow:
"Dumbo, are you sure it's bloodthirsty and brutal? It seems pretty dumb to me."
Dumbo: "."
"Is that raccoon-like creature a different race?"
In every race, there are good and bad individuals, smart ones and dumb ones. The tree-like creature in front of them might just be an anomaly among the Flora Colossi, so Jerry didn't dwell on it.
"The database has no records of this race. It might be the result of an experiment?"
Dumbo replied again.
Jerry nodded and continued walking.
Today, his task was to use the wristband to familiarize himself with these alien races.
As he walked, Jerry gradually gained a basic understanding of various alien races through Dumbo's explanations.
For example, where they came from, which race they belonged to, what planet they were from, their general abilities, and their cultural customs.
About ten minutes later, he sat down on a public bench next to a blue pool and used the wristband to project a holographic image, browsing through some news reports from Xandar.
If you want to understand history, the fastest way is to read history books. If you want to understand current events, the fastest way is to read the news.
"After years of war, the Kree Empire, under the orders of the Supreme Intelligence, has signed a peace agreement with the Xandar Empire and will no longer engage in warfare. However, we remain skeptical of the Kree's sincerity."
"The Accuser Ronan of the Kree Empire, dissatisfied with the Supreme Intelligence's orders, has led his army in multiple attacks on Nova Corps bases across various colonies, causing numerous bloody massacres. Nova Prime has stated that the Kree Empire will be formally protested!"
"The Sovereign Empire has announced that they have developed a new type of high-energy battery. Just four of these batteries contain enough energy to destroy an entire planet."
"The Mad Titan Thanos continues to wage war with his powerful Cosmic Army. Multiple empires are already in talks to discuss how to sanction this last Titan."
Jerry swiped through the news, gaining a clear understanding of the current state of the universe.
As he was engrossed in reading, a commotion suddenly erupted on the overpass above him, seemingly due to a robbery.
Jerry glanced up but quickly dismissed it.
Given Xandar's advanced technology and robust security measures, such incidents would likely be resolved quickly. There was no need for him to get involved.
After all, the red stars awarded for such trivial robberies were no longer worth his attention.
