The situation at the border station

Normally those who wish to enter the border station must wait in line, while their spaceships are scanned, but the guards here were… useless.

While the spaceship was concealed, Aster used his spirit sense to inspect the situation, just to make himself an idea of how bad were things for the Rodia star cluster, and as he expected the guards here were totally corrupted.

In plain daylight there were some who asked for a protection fee, others offered to jump the line in exchange for a fee too, they weren't different from a lair of bandits, of course that only happened to those who were judged to be too weak to have connections with people from other star clusters.

Aster softly snorted, he always wondered why the Rodia star cluster which had a quality decent enough for star tribulation cultivators to flourish, like Prasil, was so behind only having at most star axys powerhouses.
