It was just like his old chariot’s heart, but each spaceship’s heart would require a different quality of energy sources. Some even would require a very high source of power, one that wasn’t easily obtained or found.

According to her, if crystal mines were one of the most heated places in the universe, then the mines of high energy sources belonged to the same very short list.

It wasn’t only that, but the loot armies got after fighting at the outer battlefield would always contain high energy source materials. And that was something that highlighted the importance of such a place in the eyes of Hye.

He learnt too much stuff, but the bitter fact still remained. It was hellishly difficult to obtain spaceships in normal ways. There wasn’t any impact willing to sell them to a force that wasn’t widely known and strong in the universe. And such forces were already so strong and ancient, not like Hye’s newly built human kingdom.

He knew this was going to be tough, but from her words he knew it was impossible. She noticed his silence, and the glimmer in his eyes when she spoke so she ended her words with this phrase:

“Don’t set your ambition too high. There are few things in the universe that any force would consider strategic, and that includes these spaceships. I bet even if you offered the entire bone treasure you have right now to the Toranks, they won’t even bat an eye to refuse your request!”

Her words might seem harsh, but they were speaking about the truth. Hye already knew how hard it was before she made the picture blacker.

“Let’s not speak about this then,” Hye didn’t want to dream about something he wouldn’t be able to get. So he turned his attention towards a different matter, “we are close from the place of meeting. During which, don’t speak or do anything unusual, ok?”

“I’m not a kid!” she pouted, and Hye heaved an inward sigh of relief that she got over the point of spaceships fast enough.

As he just said, they were a few minutes away from the place of their meeting. He opened the message of Silverlining again, to recheck over the information about this place.

Sector 555 wasn’t any much different than the place Hye arrived here in the first place. It was filled with lots of flying colossal discs, each with many levels.

Hye asked around about the bar Silverlining told him about, and after an hour of looking, they finally arrived at it.

It wasn’t in any of the flying discs but was on the ground. Hye considered it to be at the outer borders of this sector, and the place wasn’t crowded with people like any other place he saw before in this world.

The place was beside a dock as Silverlining said. And weirdly enough, it was a huge military dock, one that was filled with lots of spaceships, small and even medium sized ones.

The dock was situated on the ground, not over any flying disc or anything. Hye guessed the reasons behind this was for security measures, and also for technical details.

He didn’t need to go and inspect these spaceships personally to know how heavy they were. As the dock hosted tens of thousands of these spaceships, the weight of all of them was quite expected to be enormous!

He doubted any flying disc would be able to host them. Not to mention discs were built like towers, and that would limit the ability for these spaceships to leave and land on the dock efficiently.

The bar they headed towards was situated inside a mess of streets and alleys, one that made the two lose their way a couple of times already. Streets here weren’t that organised, weren’t even wide or properly paved.

For a second there, Hye recalled the slum areas in any big city or town on Earth before the time of the apocalypse. He didn’t know why such a place existed without proper organising or patrolling units. Yet he felt more secure to meet that smuggler in such a place. It suited the dark deal he was going to make with him after all.

“This is it, really a place for such a meeting,” the lady nymph couldn’t help but chuckle when she saw the broken sign of the bar. The words written over it were old and parts of them were gone already, yet the two could clearly read the words despite that.

“The Blue Wild Lady bar… It’s really here,” Hye looked around, through the alley they were standing in the middle of.

The place was the perfect spot for any illegal stuff to be done at. First the bar took the lead of three alleys meeting together here, with doors leading to the three paths of escape if needed. As for the alleys themselves, they were all narrow, poorly lit, and seemed abandoned for a long time.

If not for them actively looking for this place, they’d have easily missed it! The sign was hung over a wooden slate above the door, with small metallic chains supporting it in place. Part of the chains got rusted and broken, ending up with part of the sign pointing towards the ground.

“Let’s knock then,” As the two didn’t find any doorbell, the lady nymph casually said.

“If no answer, let’s barge inside ourselves then,” Hye got another idea, which was to break the door using force and weapons. Even if this would attract hostility from people inside, he’d at least see what type of place he was heading towards.

Not to mention he used to see such entrance scenes in the old beads speaking about Earth before the fall.

“Yelling also works,” just before the lady nymph would say anything to mock Hye’s brutal method to enter, a voice came from a valley on the side of this building.
