Chapter 147: Boundary Cube
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Outside Green Lotus City, 5,000 Yellow-Scarved soldiers were waiting solemnly as if they were about to go into a war.
On the city wall, Guo Jia and Zhao Decai looked at the Yellow-Scarved soldiers below with smiles.
“Yellow-Scarved soldiers, listen up! Expand Green Lotus City!”
Guo Jia’s words were enhanced by pure qi and fell into everyone’s ears.
“Yes, my lord!”
The Yellow-Scarved soldiers shouted in unison and then retrieved their “weapons.” Some of them even had two bags hanging from their waists.
They contained Green Bricks and Fusion Rocks.
“Old Zhao, continue to forge the Green Bricks and Fusion Rocks. If there aren’t enough people, recruit them in the city.”
Seeing the Yellow-Scarved soldiers move, Guo Jia turned to Zhao Decai and said.
“Are you going to build a new city?”
Zhao Decai asked Guo Jia.
“Yes. The Forest race’s gathering place was situated in a favorable location with a few mineral veins nearby.”
Guo Jia nodded. After Green Lotus City was expanded, he planned to build a city near the Forest race.
Moreover, Mei Changge and Guo Jia had already decided to build the city.
In the end, Guo Jia chose the gathering place of the Forest race.
“I understand.”
Zhao Decai nodded and said. His gaze landed on the Yellow-Scarved soldiers outside the city.
The Yellow-Scarved soldiers were all extremely strong. They carried the Green Bricks and began to expand outside the city.
Furthermore, they built houses and also paved the ground. In no time, a broad pathway had extended from the original city gate.
“The lord made a wise decision to turn those people into Yellow-Scarved soldiers.”
Zhao Decai wore a smile on his face. The Yellow-Scarved soldiers were remarkable builders. Since becoming soldiers, their strength had multiplied nearly twentyfold. The speed at which they constructed cities was utterly incomparable to their previous abilities.
“I’ll go to Green Cloud City first. I’ll leave these people to you to manage the expansion of Green Lotus City.”
After Guo Jia finished speaking to Zhao De, he walked down from the city wall and headed towards Green Cloud City.
At that moment, many soldiers were gathered outside Green Cloud City.
Xu Ding, Song Yubai, Lin Zifeng, Li Xin, Zhang Xiang, and Yan Zhen were present.
Behind the six of them stood several soldiers. Though only three days had passed, upon closer inspection, it was evident that these soldiers had undergone a transformation.
They no longer looked like they had just walked out of the valley of the soldier pools. It was as if they had become real soldiers.
Of course, this was also because they did not fight. Otherwise, their flaws would probably be exposed.
At that moment, a light appeared in the distance. Soon, a figure fell into everyone’s eyes.
“Greetings, my lord!”
When Mei Changge appeared in the sky, Xu Ding and the others wore solemn expressions. They saluted him, and the soldiers behind them followed suit.
“Rise.”
Mei Changge stood in the air and waved his hand. Everyone who bent down felt a force help them up.
“Today is the day the stargates open. Are you ready?!”
Mei Changge gazed at all the soldiers below, his expression serious. Although his voice was not loud, it reached the ears of every soldier.
“Ready!”
Under the lead of Xu Ding and the others, all the soldiers replied at the same time.
“The Void Gate has descended!”
Mei Changge had a satisfied expression. Then, he raised his right hand high.
As soon as he finished speaking, five rays of light descended from the sky and instantly landed in front of everyone.
When the light dissipated, there were five doorframes formed by the light.
Mei Changge took out five level-one stargate tokens in his left hand and gently threw them out. They turned into five blue lights and landed in the five doorframes.
Five light blue doors stood in front of the soldiers.
“Soldiers!”
Mei Changge surveyed the soldiers, his tone carrying a hint of gravitas.
“There might be foreign races and humans like us in the stargate. It might even be a desolate place.”
Mei Changge paused briefly before adding, “The presence of five stargates also signifies that only five generals can lead their soldiers through the stargates!”
“The Green Lotus Territory needs to be guarded, so you will take turns entering the stargate-”
After Mei Changge finished speaking, his gaze landed on Xu Ding.
“Xu Ding!”
“Yes, my lord!”
Xu Ding bowed to Mei Changge with a serious expression.
“Your Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry will be the first to remain behind. Once anyone returns from the stargate, you will lead the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry into the stargate,” Mei Changge instructed.
“Yes, my lord!”
Xu Ding nodded. He knew that he was the first among the many soldiers to step into the Transcendent realm. When he saw the five stargates, he already had a guess.
Furthermore, it was impossible for the Green Lotus Territory to not have any soldiers guarding it.
“Song Yubai!”
Mei Changge’s gaze landed on Song Yubai again.
“Yes, my lord!”
Song Yubai’s expression was serious as he cupped his hands at Mei Changge.
“Lead 6,000 Red Lotus soldiers into the first stargate.”
Mei Changge pointed at the first stargate on the left.
“Yes, my lord!”
“6,000 Red Lotus soldiers, step out. Enter the first stargate!”
Song Yubai shouted behind him. Soon after, 6,000 Red Lotus soldiers followed behind him and entered the first stargate.
“Zhang Xiang, Yan Zhen!”
“Yes, my lord!”
The two of them replied at the same time.
“The two of you will each lead 7,000 soldiers into the second and third stargates, respectively.”
Mei Changge looked at the two of them. Although Zhang Xiang was only at Postnatal Level 8, as Song Yubai’s deputy general he was qualified to lead soldiers into the stargate.
“Yes, my lord!”
The two of them had serious expressions as they led the remaining Red Lotus soldiers into the two stargates.
“Lin Zifeng, Li Xin, each of you will lead 10,000 Mystic Yang soldiers into the last two stargates.”
Mei Changge looked at the two of them and said.
“Yes, my lord!”
The two of them replied at the same time. Then, they led the Mystic Yang soldiers into the last two stargates.
In the end, only Xu Ding and the 10,000 Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry were left on the field.
At that moment, Ye Yan and Guo Jia came.
“Boss, we’re here!”
Ye Yan shouted excitedly at Mei Changge.
“My lord!”
With a wry smile on his face, Guo Jia hadn’t expected to run into Ye Yan on the way, and as a result, he ended up flying over with Ye Yan.
“Good, you came at the right time.”
When Mei Changge saw Ye Yan and Guo Jia, a smile appeared on his face.
“Ye Yan, I might need to enter a level-two stargate soon. Are you interested in joining?”
Mei Changge looked at Ye Yan and asked with a smile.
“Level-two stargate?”
Ye Yan was taken aback at first, but upon further reflection, it made sense. Whether it was treasures or other resources, level-one stargates could no longer meet Mei Changge’s needs. It was indeed the right time to consider entering a level-two stargate.
“Boss, I’ll stay behind, but please be cautious in the level-two stargate. Although I’ve never been inside one, I’ve heard from my family that level-two stargates are entirely different from level-ones.” Ye Yan cautioned with a serious expression.
“Yes, I’m aware.”
Mei Changge nodded gently. This was also the reason why he was not in a hurry to enter.
“Feng Xiao, these are the remaining level-one stargate tokens. If any of the stargates are shattered, activate one of the tokens.”
Mei Changge took out the remaining tokens and handed them to Guo Jia.
“Don’t worry, my lord.”
Guo Jia took the tokens and said with a serious expression.
“Xu Ding, besides safeguarding the Green Lotus Territory, the Nine Howling
Wolf Cavalry will also assist in acclimating the new soldiers to the formation.
Once you’ve entered the stargate a few times, I will delegate additional missions to the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry.”
Mei Changge looked at Xu Ding and said with a serious expression.
“Yes, my lord.”
Upon hearing Mei Changge’s words, Xu Ding’s face lit up with understanding. It became clear why their Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry was chosen to stay behind first—they had additional missions to undertake.
“In that case, my lord, I’ll lead the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry for training.”
“Go on.”
Mei Changge nodded slightly. Soon after, Xu Ding left two Nine Howling Wolf Cavalries behind and left.
“Let’s go to the Green Cloud Palace and talk.”
Mei Changge looked at Ye Yan and Guo Jia. Then, the three of them left and returned to the Green Cloud Palace.
“Ye Yan, are you really not going to the level-two stargate?”
Mei Changge asked Ye Yan again. Ye Yan was the master of the Blessed Land like him and had been staying in the Green Lotus Territory. Mei Changge felt that it was a waste of his talent.
“Boss, I won’t go.”
Ye Yan shook his head slightly.
“Boss, I want to officially join the Green Lotus Territory.”
Ye Yan said to Mei Changge with a serious expression.
He had already decided to firmly align himself with Mei Changge’s cause. Recently, he had been exploring the Green Lotus Territory and was aware of its state and changes.
Ultimately, he chose to join Mei Changge’s endeavor.
“You mean…”
Mei Changge raised his eyebrows and said with a puzzled expression.
“Boss, look at this treasure.”
Ye Yan had a smile on his face as an item appeared in his hand.
“This is called the Boundary Cube!”
Ye Yan handed the item in his hand to Mei Changge and said with a smile. The Boundary Cube was white at the top and black at the bottom. It was square.
“Boundary Cube?”
Mei Changge’s face was filled with confusion.
“Boss, we’re unsure of the treasure’s grade, but it serves a purpose. It can cultivate a second Blessed Land space!”
Ye Yan said to Mei Changge with a serious expression.
“But there’s a prerequisite.”
“What is that?”
When Mei Changge heard Ye Yan’s words, he asked with a puzzled expression.
“The prerequisite is that someone is willing to inject the origin of their Blessed Land into it.”
Ye Yan said with a serious expression.
After Mei Changge obtained the Boundary Cube, he also read its introduction through the interface. Boundary Cube
Grade: Unknown
Introduction: Can nurture a second Blessed Land. (Requires a Blessed Land’s origin)
“Second Blessed Land?”
Mei Changge had a thoughtful expression. He guessed that this treasure’s ability should not only nurture a second Blessed Land but also have other uses. However, it was not shown on the interface.
Otherwise, Ye Yan would not have taken the Boundary Cube and said that he would officially join the Green Lotus Territory.
“This treasure should have other uses, right?”
Mei Changge looked up and shifted his gaze from the Boundary Cube in his hand to Ye Yan.
“That’s correct. The Blessed Land’s origin is paramount to its owner. If the origin of the Blessed Land is harmed, the entire Blessed Land will suffer the consequences.”
Ye Yan nodded slightly and said with a smile..
