Chapter 13

George looked at Camilla with disdain. The female agent standing at the front right of him was giving orders to the agent controlling the surveillance.

Just a moment ago, Camilla was the one who requested the agent to slow down the speed of the surveillance video to check it frame by frame, and now, she was impatiently urging the video to be played faster.

“This woman’s mentality is unstable. How did she get into the Special Ops squad?”

As George was silently criticizing Camilla, the surveillance footage was adjusted back to normal speed.

Soon, an even larger figure appeared on the screen. However, due to the layer of reinforced glass and the time being nighttime, everyone present could not see the appearance of the monster clearly.

Unless they could pull up the surveillance footage of the entire hospital and find the image of the monster from the surveillance camera placed outside the building, then perhaps they could see what it looked like.

George pondered but did not speak up about his thoughts.

The few special agents also quickly thought of such a method. The special agent who was controlling the surveillance footage stood up and looked at Camilla behind him.

“Vice-captain, we can’t see the monster’s appearance from this surveillance footage. Why don’t we get a hold of the surveillance footage outside the hospital?”

So Camilla was the vice-captain of the Special Ops Squad!

George listened to the male agent’s suggestion and anticipated his next move.

Camilla frowned.

“There are too many surveillance cameras outside the hospital. We don’t have that many people to check all of them, but we can ask Captain to apply for help from the police.”

Everyone turned their gazes to Buck who was on the bed at the same time.

George didn’t say anything. After all, he was conflicted. He wanted very much to see what the monster looked like, but he was afraid that it would be Anna.

Buck raised his hand as a signal to his teammates to raise his bed so that he could feel more comfortable.

At this moment, George suddenly felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. There must be a call coming in, or there must be new messages in the chat.

With the excuse he needed to go to the bathroom, George left the ward alone. He walked through the corridor and pushed open the door of the escape corridor.

In the dim corridor, the screen lit up, and messages appeared one after another. George drove the monster out of his mind and placed his focus on the chat group that he had clicked open.

In the alien chat group, there were less than 10 new messages. They were conversations between the level 1.8 Mocalian and level 2.5 Sarlatian.

Mocalian: [Everyone, we have quite a sum of spare space storage cards produced recently on our planet. If any civilization is interested, feel free to contact me to purchase them!]

Sarlatian: [Mocalian, your understanding of space far surpasses the major civilizations in the universe. If it wasn’t for the difficulty of converting space into combat power, you would have long been a high-level or even super civilization! ]

Mocalian: [Thank you, the noble character of the Sarlatians has always been praised by the civilizations in the universe. ]

Sarlatian: [Mocalian, how much does a space storage card cost? ]

Mocalian: [This depends on the level of the space storage card. How about this, I’ll upload the detailed price list to the group file. If you buy it in bulk, the price is negotiable!]

“Space storage card?”

Seeing the words “space storage card” that was the center of discussion in the alien chat group, George was puzzled.

This was very similar to the subject he was studying now, both belonged to space physics.

At this time, a notification that a new group file had been uploaded appeared at the top of the chat group.

George immediately clicked into the group file and saw the document that had just been uploaded. After selecting the document, a very detailed price list was displayed.

It listed the various levels of space storage cards and their corresponding functions, behind all the descriptions was their respective prices.

For example, at the bottom of the list was the F-grade space storage card. The function column was only filled with a short phrase: “It can store one universe unit”. The price of one was 15 million universe dollars.

After George finished reading about the F-grade space storage card, he was even more confused.

“It can store 1 universe unit? How much space is that?”

He didn’t understand the measuring units in the universe, so he couldn’t make an accurate judgment.

However, George could still comprehend the price of the space storage card. This was based on his knowledge that the light-speed starship that he had obtained was worth more than 100 billion universe dollars. In addition, the aliens in the chat group had once said that a low-level life planet was worth around 100 million universe dollars.

Using this as a basis, an F-grade space storage card could be considered to be quite expensive since it was worth 15 million universe dollars.

“I wonder how much space one universe unit is?”

After George finished looking at the F grade space storage card at the bottom, he slowly moved his gaze to the top of the table. The levels of the space storage cards increased, and at the top of the table was the A-grade space storage card.

When he saw the price of the A-grade space storage card, he was shocked by the exorbitant price.

“An A-grade space storage card costs 60 billion universe dollars! This much moment is enough to buy almost 600 life planets similar to Earth!”

When George first obtained the interstellar battleship, the price of one was around 100 billion universe dollars. However, that was after all a colossus that could travel through space.

To think that a space storage card on the price list could be sold for 60 billion universe dollars, for a moment, was simply unacceptable to George.

He was unable to accept it because his vision and level of thinking were still at the level of an Earthian.

George didn’t dwell on the price of the A-grade space storage card but looked to its functions.

“It can store 10,000 universe units! The A-grade storage cards’ storage capacity is 10,000 times that of the F-grade storage cards. Looks like I have to figure out how much space 1 universe unit is.”

George closed the group file. When he entered the chat group interface again, he discovered that the Selkian who liked to post sarcastic comments was sending out insulting messages to the Mocalian in the group chat.

[Mocalians are simply black-hearted businessmen! An F-grade space storage card can only store one universe unit, which means it can only store one adult Mocalian at most. To think you would dare sell it at 15 million universe dollars. Hmph! One day, Planet Selka will destroy your planet!]

What surprised George was that the Selkian who liked to post insulting messages had answered his doubts.

“It seems that one universe unit is the space about the size of an adult.”

When George had watched the demo video shared by the Mocalian previously, he had a rough estimate of the size of the Mocalians. They should be slightly bigger than an adult Earthling, but the difference should not be very big.

According to this calculation, and the fact an A-grade storage card’s capacity was 10,000 times that of an F-grade storage card, which meant an A-grade storage card should be able to store an interstellar battleship!

George finally understood why the interstellar battleship would disappear into thin air in the demo video. It turned out it had been stored in another space by a higher-grade storage card..
