Chapter 2527: Chapter 2528: First Entry into the Base
Apparently, his Divine Kingdom is still not a complete world.
There is still some distance to make it fit for living beings to reside.
Moreover, he also sensed that the reason these villagers can survive here is most likely because someone has forcefully created a survival environment for them!
For instance, providing some necessary Laws for survival, which his Divine Kingdom currently lacks.
"Ye Luo, you finally came. Tell me, how do you plan to thank me!"
As soon as he saw Ye Luo, the Fire Turkey greeted him with unfriendly words.
Only then did Ye Luo suddenly realize that all of this was the doing of the Fire Turkey!
He then noticed that the Fire Turkey was no longer the innocent and naive young Spirit Beast of those years but had truly become an ancient Divine Beast.
Evidently, in all these years in the cave, the Fire Turkey’s growth surpassed his own, after all, the Fire Turkey had its own heritage, making everything smooth sailing. The power of the Laws in this Divine Kingdom was enough to show that its understanding of the Laws and the Dao exceeded Ye Luo’s.
Even the Skysoar Beast made rapid progress.
Of course, the relationship between the Fire Turkey and Ye Luo was different, and he didn’t understand why the Fire Turkey chose to reside in his Divine Kingdom. By rights, having reached such a realm, it had full ability to protect itself and could have left Ye Luo’s Divine Kingdom, as, truthfully, this Divine Kingdom was insufficient even for the Skysoar Beast.
Moreover, neither the Fire Turkey nor the Skysoar Beast was his pet, so Ye Luo had never proactively asked these two Divine Beasts to do anything for him.
"Wa-haha, are you moved beyond words? No need for this, if you intend to repay me, just give me all your resources, I won’t refuse!" the Fire Turkey yelled arrogantly.
Initially, Ye Luo was quite grateful to it, but hearing those words, he realized that this was entirely unnecessary!
It seemed that although its realm had improved, its temperament had not changed.
Of course, what Ye Luo didn’t know was that the Fire Turkey acted like this only towards him. After all, the Fire Turkey was an ancient Divine Beast, and truthfully, Divine Beasts were just a type of Spirit Beast, but the reason they were titled so was through battles, which Divine Beast didn’t have a fearsome reputation!
Slaughtering a city, annihilating a clan, those were common occurrences.
"Is that so? You’ve been eating and living here for decades, shouldn’t I be asking for resources from you; however, considering what you’ve done, let’s waive it!" Ye Luo laughed.
"What the heck!" the Fire Turkey cursed stylishly; Ye Luo realized it certainly learned this from those Mecha.
At the moment, he couldn’t be bothered with the Fire Turkey, for up ahead, Xin Lan was waiting for him.
Currently, Ye Luo was deeply entrenched in a crisis, and connecting with the base was definitely good news for him.
However, Xin Lan’s face couldn’t conceal the exhaustion, although her expression was utterly solemn, contrasting sharply with her previous calm demeanor.
"Are you... alright?"
Ye Luo originally wanted to joke with her, but the words that came out turned into a simple greeting.
"Let’s not talk about this, come, take a look at this!"
Without extra words, she pointed directly towards the base and said.
Ye Luo was somewhat puzzled, "You mean, let me enter the base?"
All this time, though the Divine Kingdom belonged to Ye Luo, the base was merely a resident, yet the base had never had this realization, and had always been closed to Ye Luo. Not to mention entering, within several kilometers around it was considered a forbidden zone for Ye Luo.
Yet now, Xin Lan’s stance clearly suggested she wanted him to enter the base.
"That’s right, follow me!"
She didn’t offer much response, only said coldly.
During this meeting with Xin Lan, it was apparent that her attitude had cooled a lot.
Previously, his relationship with Xin Lan had reached a somewhat ambiguous level, but seeing her now, maybe due to time, a significant rift had formed between them, seemingly unable to return to their former state.
To this, while Ye Luo felt a bit of regret, he didn’t covet too much, recognizing that, at the root, he and Xin Lan were two different kinds of people.
Being the first time entering the base, Ye Luo was quite curious. Previously, the base had only rented him two storage rooms, but as his resources depleted, they vanished long ago.
Yet, gradually, Ye Luo felt a sense of disparity. In his mind, the base had always been a symbol of high-tech. Zhongzhou’s civilization and technology, without doubt, brimming with mystery and awe.
However, the construction within the base was quite underwhelming!
Yes, underwhelming! Everywhere bore a sense of decay, and the construction level didn’t even reach the standards of Earth’s developed cities.
As for high-tech items, they were few and far between!
Originally, Ye Luo thought everything here would be highly intelligent robots and high-tech buildings, a world of technology!
Yet, the reality was quite the opposite of his expectations.
"What’s the matter? A bit disappointed?"
Without turning back, Xin Lan simply asked gently.
"A little bit!" Ye Luo answered truthfully.
"Our genuine resources are all invested in research. The pressure we face in the base is unprecedented, not like what you think. We live frugally to yield results in research!"
Subsequently, Xin Lan began to complain to Ye Luo.
However, Ye Luo remained indifferent, confident that the resources within the heart of technology were more than what Xin Lan claimed. Besides, this had little to do with him. The base wouldn’t remain in the Divine Kingdom forever, and likely the moment when the base departs from the Divine Kingdom will be when it breaks ties with Ye Luo.
Probably Xin Lan anticipated this as well, intentionally distancing herself from Ye Luo.
Soon, they arrived at a laboratory, which was quite large.
Here, Ye Luo finally witnessed the semblance of technology.
Firstly, the lab’s defenses; the various safeguards made Ye Luo click his tongue. With such a defense level, even if attacked by those totems, it might be to no avail.
For Ye Luo, trying to storm in was even harder.
So, the question arose, once Ye Luo entered, exit would be almost impossible!
In his current state, he was merely a Divine Sense Incarnation, although losing this incarnation wouldn’t endanger his life, the consequences were quite severe.
Firstly, his Divine Sense would suffer a significant blow. Although the loss of Divine Sense seemingly didn’t affect his realm, it certainly had a substantial impact on his talent and future cultivation!
