Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1033: Section 1019 - Intelligence Exchange
Every time we go 5 kilometers deeper, not only do we lay down communication and power cables along the way and provide lighting, but we also leave behind a small squad of combat mechs to set up barrier checkpoints.
Inside the "Spatial Branding," there are many combat mechs and supplies stored. Chen Fei doesn't hold back from using them; not using them is just letting them idle, and idling means wasting.
Moreover, with his psi skill, as long as there are sufficient basic materials, self-sustainability is enough to last a long time. The Blue Star sovereignty recognized this and entrusted him with the mission to participate in the "Ark Plan," understanding this point well.
All those who follow Chen Fei into the underground Little World wear highly sealed single soldier tactical armor. The air is filled with unknown microorganisms and spores, which are harmful to humans. If exposed to air, it won't be long before various bizarre physiological and spiritual abnormalities occur, like colorful fungal threads emerging on the skin surface or unnatural twitching beneath the skin, until sprouts break through the body, dying in all kinds of strange ways, but certainly all horrible and unbearable to witness.
"Sagali" is a parasitic civilization. Since it originated from this planet, Antalu Planet cannot be lacking in creatures with parasitic traits, fighting desperately for survival resources.
Therefore, for Blue Star Humans already adapted to Blue Star's ecosystem, this planet's environment is akin to Hell.
A few daring experts tried to remove their tactical gloves to personally touch those strange minerals and organisms, only to be beaten soundly by the combat mechs escorting them and mercilessly chased back to the surface.
Even in the army, there's no need for this kind of undisciplined fools; they don't understand the kind of risk they might bring to the entire team and even their species.
A virus can destroy a species; this has happened in Blue Star Humans history and is common in modern livestock and agriculture.
After "killing" a few disobedient "chickens," the overly curious "monkeys" finally settled down, obediently following the team, no longer touching things recklessly.
The journey wasn't peaceful; they threw over a dozen tactical grenades, fired several individual cloud bombs, and detonated two anti-infantry mines, consuming tens of thousands of railgun rifle bullets, trekking on foot for 25 hours until the view finally opened up, and they reached the "Seed Nest" underground Little World controlled by McKenny.
The creatures outside the underground Little World won't obediently follow McKenny's will; in fact, they are parasitic beings relying on the "Seed Nest," surviving on the occasional leaked resources.
"Welcome, guests from afar."
The rushing air current is the underground Little World's simulated sound waves.
Like the little bug before a human mouth, if not careful, it might be blown away before a few words are spoken.
The "Seed Nest" cannot move; the "Sagali" people have long left their ancestral land, and McKenny has been trapped here for countless years, hard to avoid the joy of visitors coming.
Chen Fei straightforwardly said, "We came to investigate, and exchange some intelligence along the way."
Facing such an ancient monster that has survived for about 110,000 years, the best way of communication is to say what needs to be said without playing mind games.
Otherwise, you play, they play, in the end can you outplay them? Do you really think all those years lived in vain?
So, only you end up embarrassed!
"Just right, I also have some intelligence to tell you."
McKenny doesn't care about Chen Fei and his people coming to pluck his wool; even if they pluck, for an underground Little World with a diameter of over 300 kilometers, describing it as the tip of an iceberg is narrow-minded, completely insignificant.
"Wait!"
Chen Fei turned and loudly conveyed to the experts who were marveling at the incredible surroundings, starting to feel restless, "From now on, free movement is allowed, but do not go beyond 10 kilometers, and you are not allowed to return to the entrance where you came in without permission, this spot is designated as the gathering point. Check your location every half hour, and absolutely do not remove or take off your tactical armor."
The underground Little World is McKenny's home base, all living creatures obey their will and won't take harmful actions on their own. Although removing the single soldier tactical armor doesn't lead to life-threatening situations, once infected, you might have to accept the "Seed Nest's" process to completely clear potential risks, like Lin Zixian and Ginny did.
But how many secrets the Blue Star Human genetic information still holds, Chen Fei thinks it's better to leak as little as possible.
"Understood!"
All the experts responded unanimously. Only nine-tenths of the original team managed to follow to the underground Little World.
Less than ten percent of the experts, because of their meddling, were chased back to the surface, Chen Fei doesn't involve them.
Upon arrival at the underground Little World, Chen Fei arranged for four combat mechs to follow each expert, assisting in sample collection, path clearing, close protection, and monitoring tasks, ensuring they didn't casually leave the Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam's" sight.
As for whether the experts preferred exploring alone or teaming up for surveys, Chen Fei didn't interfere, instead setting up a fully enclosed small "Skylight" habitation near the underground Little World's entrance, equipped with a disinfection cleaning passage for everyone's meals, rest, and other needs.
Having arranged everything, Chen Fei returned to the conversation with McKenny.
"I investigated, the 'Evil Demon' referred to by the 'Sagali' species might be called 'Evil God' or 'Holy Spirit'!"
After divulging this information, Chen Fei focused intently on awaiting McKenny's reaction.
"You mean... the 'Evil Demon' appeared not only on this planet but also in other places?"
McKenny's voice carried a thick air of doubt, evidently, the intelligence Chen Fei shared greatly surprised them.
"If it's referring to the presence like the red cloud fog, then indeed it is."
Regrettably for Chen Fei, the Slan Dynasty's archaeological intelligence has not confirmed what exactly the "Holy Spirit" is, whether it's a living entity or energy, or possibly some form of spell.
As one who directly devoured the "Holy Spirit" back then, McKenny might have some firsthand experience.
"What does this thing ultimately want?"
McKenny gradually sank into recollection.
They once were the protagonist of those murals Chen Fei pried off, yet upon rediscovering those nearly forgotten memories, they found themselves ignorant about the "Evil Demon."
"Just like what the 'Sagali' species are doing now, yesterday's dragon-slaying hero becomes today's Evil Dragon."
Based on the Slan Royal Family's shared documents, Chen Fei found some startling coincidences of the actions between the "Sagali" civilization and their practices.
"How could this happen, how could this happen, how could..."
McKenny seemed to have accepted Chen Fei's speculation, endlessly echoing their disbelief in the Little World like a broken record.
Even though once speculated about the "Evil Demon (Holy Spirit)" existence, those speculations and the information provided by Chen Fei were completely different.
"Stop, stop, McKenny, stop!" freewebnσvel.cѳm
Chen Fei shouted for several minutes before regaining their attention, stopping their repetition mode.
"Sorry, I lost control."
McKenny's apologetic voice came.
"You can think about this later, let's continue!"
"Oh, okay, okay!"
"May I ask why there is a spatial anomaly on Antalu Planet?"
This question was asked on behalf of S-Class Space Ability User Heseman Brown, his psi skill couldn't locate Blue Star, resulting in Chen Fei and the "Wall of Sighs" task force unable to return to Blue Star.
"It's because of me!"
McKenny's answer was completely unexpected for Chen Fei, the instigator was right in front of him.
Chen Fei naturally asked, "Why?"
He did not doubt their capability; after all, it is an ancient monster living for over ten thousand years with extraordinary powers. More importantly, the initial form of the "Seed Nest" excels in manipulating spiritual power and various elemental energy, belonging to "Sagali."
The higher tier "Sagali" control more types of elemental energy, reaching McKenny's level, they probably have mastered the eleven types of elemental energy, blocking the whole planet's space series rules should be achievable.
"To prevent the 'Sagali' species from returning!"
"Huh?"
