Chapter 746 - 467 Star Spirit’s Cooperation, Ark Resources
"I didn’t expect this civilization’s artifact to possess intelligence."
"It seems to be quite wise...."
After a simple exchange lasting several minutes.
Everyone on the floating track showed surprise, their eyes widened as they looked at the blue-clad virtual figure floating amidst the sea of clouds.
It appeared to be like a little girl from Chi Country, but there was a third vertical eye at the center of her forehead.
The cold and solemn expression was full of humanized emotions, making one dare not take it lightly.
"Master Star Spirit? An intelligence left by the Ancient Tado Civilization...."
Nangong Ling’s silver wings fluttered slightly behind her as she stood in the center of the turret on the floating track, observing intently the movements of the Inverted Pyramid and the intelligent virtual figure.
Why did the other party suddenly appear?
Could it be due to the exploration they had undertaken earlier?
One by one, questions arose, and she even thought of some secrets from rumors.
Chairman Li Yun, who was the highest commander present, stood before her and had been conversing with the Star Spirit for a while.
"I wonder how Master Star Spirit wishes to transact?"
Chairman Li Yun addressed respectfully, referring to himself as a junior.
Upon seeing this, the high-ranking officers behind him remained calm and didn’t find it surprising.
Although the humanoid projection of this intelligence looked very young, it was a remnant of a civilization from millions of years ago, naturally much older.
Perhaps when it first emerged, humans weren’t even born.
"You little old man, you’re quite easy to talk to."
The Star Spirit, sounding like an old soul, glanced at the crowd and subtly locked eyes with Chen Feng for a moment.
"It’s very simple, I will use some of the technology left by our civilization to trade with you."
"But before that, I hope to meet your leader."
The calm voice carried authority, Chairman Li Yun was momentarily stunned before composing himself.
Without refusal, amidst vigilance, a projection screen began connecting to Red Capital’s communications.
Chen Feng didn’t pay much attention to all this, merely standing with Nangong Ling, feigning vigilance, but in reality, had already opened his mind.
"That is my intelligent body, but it’s essentially just me."
"I have no choice, the resources needed to repair the Ark are immense, if my attitude isn’t firm, they’ll surely think I’m easy to bully, and would end up losing out later."
The Star Spirit’s voice echoed in his mind, reflecting her petite figure in his inner consciousness.
The pitiful expression was clearly intentional, Chen Feng shook his head but didn’t say much.
He didn’t plan to involve himself in this transaction.
Because without revealing the dream power, he couldn’t explain to others why the Star Spirit seemed closer to him.
Moreover, the high-level individuals of Red Capital are mostly elites, with their own judgments, and he could see the Star Spirit had her own plans.
Since both parties had already made contact, no further intervention was necessary.
"And what about the Platinum Federation side...."
Chen Feng asked, knowing that today’s events, even if kept secret, couldn’t be hidden for long.
Moreover, the Platinum Federation also has secret realm ruins, should resources there be needed...
"Not considering it for now."
The Star Spirit smiled, her petite form floating within Chen Feng’s consciousness, clearly spotting his disdain for the Platinum Federation, and said it intentionally.
Staring deeply at her, Chen Feng sensed the difference in the Star Spirit’s attitude towards him and others.
The power of dreams might be more special and important than he had imagined.
Soon after, footsteps sounded behind him, and Han Chao and others approached quickly.
Mostly with earnest expressions, hoping he would stay here with Nangong Ling for the night, until Red Capital sent people for support, just in case.
After all, when it involves the sudden anomaly of a civilization’s artifact, one can’t be too cautious.
"Alright."
Nodding lightly, Chen Feng agreed to their request.
....
Tat-tat!
That day, on the Sky Island of Radiant Inner City, in an ancient-style redwood pavilion.
Footsteps sounded, bypassing the corridor, and entering a hall.
"Sir, the first phase of exploration of the civilization ruins has ended."
Wu Zong, dressed in a Flying General combat uniform, said in a deep voice. Following his gaze, a white-haired figure sat with his back to him on a grandmaster chair.
"How’s the situation?"
The aged voice was calm and indifferent, Wu Zong slightly lowered his head and answered truthfully.
"I heard some high-level technology blueprints were discovered, but it seems some unusual situation occurred temporarily."
"The exact reason is unknown, the level of sealing is very high."
"Oh?"
The elder on the grandmaster chair was slightly surprised and then ordered him to continue the investigation.
Wu Zong nodded but then remembered something else.
"By the way, Sir, what about Prince Shiwen...."
"Let him be."
The tone was flat, and Xia Jingcheng’s eyes were profound on the grandmaster chair.
"This world only respects the strong, no matter how noble the bloodline, one needs enough strength to uphold its prestige."
"It’s time for him to experience some trials...."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zong bowed his head even lower, then tactfully retreated slowly, not turning away until leaving the hall and closing the door.
The atmosphere was silent for a moment until new footsteps resounded within the hall.
"Master, are you really going to let Prince Shiwen act recklessly?"
"I heard he went to the Golden City in the west, which is, after all, the territory of the Platinum Federation. If..."
"In my lineage, there are no useless descendants."
The aged voice turned indifferent, causing the elderly butler, who had been trying to persuade, to pause slightly before heaving a silent sigh and quietly retreating.
The room of the main hall returned to silence, with Xia Jingcheng sitting alone in the grandmaster chair, gazing at the distant sky outside the redwood window.
The outer electromagnetic interference and the barrier merged together, with the Inverted Pyramid faintly visible within them.
"Let’s wait a little longer..."
His aged face appeared a touch more rosy than usual, as if there was a different vitality emerging from his withered body.
.....
The night passed without a word.
Temporarily residing in the floating rail steel structure, Chen Feng opened his eyes, exiting the Dream Realm.
The silver-gray alloy walls and ceiling, with a clean gray iron table and chair to the side.
A slit left in the curtain revealed a welded shut explosion-proof floor-to-ceiling window behind it.
"You’re awake?"
A crisp voice rang in his mind, and the black wristband in his pocket gently vibrated.
This was a special technology mastered by the Star Spirit, capable of transmitting sound waves directly into Chen Feng’s mind and even sketching a phantom figure of the other person on a spiritual level.
"It’s really strange that your individual Strength is already comparable to a Legendary Level Transformed Person, yet you still sleep for so long."
"Could it be because of that special artifact or the power of the Divine Attribute Fragment?"
A little black-haired girl in a blue leather cloak floated directly inside the room, approaching Chen Feng.
Her three large eyes were very close, full of curiosity.
Without explaining, Chen Feng’s gaze flickered, confirming his suspicion.
Only the world where Qinggang City was located was the true Dream Realm, extremely unique.
During his Dream state, the body in the outside world appeared indistinguishable from sleep, and even the super high-level intelligent Life in front of him couldn’t detect any clues.
"Aren’t you afraid of exposing yourself?"
Chen Feng subtly changed the topic, his Perception sweeping toward the outside world.
This room was one of the rooms in a floating building, equipped with many monitoring devices that could detect abnormal fluctuations in magnetic and Energy Fields at any time.
"Those are just ordinary goods; I can easily shield them."
Star Spirit, without doubting him, retreated half a meter, patting her small chest proudly.
Chen Feng wasn’t surprised either because his previous experience came to mind.
When he entered the Inverted Pyramid earlier, the biological wristwatch granted by the military went haywire, but as he later found out, no one had noticed, including those experts and researchers observing the exploration from within the Warship.
It was clear that this was the doing of the Star Spirit, deliberately helping him cover his tracks, not wanting to expose the Divine Attribute Fragment or his unique features.
Or perhaps it was about their conversations and relationship.
"When do you plan to go to our civilization’s world?"
Star Spirit quickly initiated the topic, asking proactively.
This was something Chen Feng was puzzled about, so he followed up with a question about her situation.
He could enter the Secret Realm World a Second-time Dream, but how would she follow?
"Essentially, I’m a consciousness origin, naturally able to accompany your Spiritual consciousness."
The Star Spirit circled him, simply explaining the principle.
"And I won’t ask for your help without offering anything in return."
"Every World Ark carries some resources. If you can bring me to find them, we can share the resources."
"If the database can be repaired, I can also help you accomplish other tasks...."
Fearing he wouldn’t agree, the Star Spirit came to the front again, staring with wide, pitiful eyes.
If Chairman Li Yun and others saw her attitude, they might doubt if this was the same intelligence.
"Alright, then three days later."
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Feng did not refuse.
He already had an idea in mind.
The Heavenly Tragedy Mountain in the Snake Spirit Secret Realm was very likely a World Ark named the Heavenly Sorrow.
And the Star Spirit had indeed hit a chord with him.
The resource support from the Red Capital was stable but required time to wait.
However, the resources of the World Ark offered a new, unrestricted channel.
If he could explore inside the Heavenly Sorrow and find any residual resources to convert into nutrients, the Awakening Method could naturally break through sooner.
"Good, then it’s settled."
Star Spirit nodded repeatedly, full of anticipation.
Seeing this, Chen Feng said no more, closing his eyes slightly and focusing his mind.
The number two small stone statue in the Spiritual Link transmitted many images, which he glanced at briefly.
After he was suddenly transported and left the Snake Spirit Secret Realm, Molly, Oron, and others had a brief stay, worried that he might have met with an accident.
It wasn’t until he had the number two small stone statue relay a message that the people of the Holy City left in time.
However.
Due to the overly special position of Heavenly Tragedy Mountain, the Snake God Temple and the Five Great Tribes could deploy troops to surround and attack at any time.
Therefore, before they left, Chen Feng purposefully left the small stone statue behind to act as his sentry to monitor the environment.
And now, the other’s purpose began to unfold.
The reason he promised Star Spirit to go to the Snake Spirit Secret Realm two days later.
It was naturally to guard against possibilities, observe the situation, and prepare methods in advance.
Immediately, in the Spiritual Link, he quickly obtained the shared sight of the small stone statue.
