Free Web NovelChapter 637: Chapter 637: Return to Base Alpha
"Young Commander, what should we do? Qin Fan and the others are moving at high speed."
"Li Kang, they probably won’t bother with us, right?"
Li Kang glanced at his subordinates, then looked at Jerry.
"Let’s go, head to Xu Yi’s Base Alpha. If we don’t pledge allegiance to him now, we won’t have another chance later." With that, Li Kang flipped onto his mount.
Clearly, the Spirit Race had no intention of concerning themselves with them.
Xu Yi is the only one who can control the Star Gate.
If they want their families to come to Spirit Blue Star, they still have a chance by siding with Xu Yi now.
If they wait for Xu Yi to make a decision, there won’t be any opportunity left for them.
So, they started galloping towards Base Alpha.
However, it’ll take them at least a month to reach Base Alpha.
Many believe that by the time they arrive at Base Alpha, everything might have already cooled down.
But can they really choose not to go?
Even if there’s no chance, they must try.
Even if not for themselves, they should try for their families.
As for Lei Jie, all he wants is to use Xu Yi’s power to find his sister Ivica. After all, now only Xu Yi has the possibility of finding Ivica.
It’s been so long; who knows how Ivica and the others are doing now?
At Base Alpha, preparations had long been made.
Upon hearing that Xu Yi completed the challenge, Cheng Jie and Liu Li immediately gathered everyone to welcome Xu Yi and the others.
Because Cheng Jie and Liu Li both knew Xu Yi would quickly come to Base Alpha after completing the challenge.
The result proved their predictions were correct.
Xu Yi first moved quickly to Lu Ke and the others, then made his way towards Base Alpha.
Two hours later, the massive Pangu landed on a piece of open ground.
Being all grassland here, there’s no issue with Pangu’s landing.
The landing site hadn’t been developed yet.
Then, Xu Yi and the others galloped towards the base camp on their mounts.
Number 6 rode a level 7 peak Fierce Beast alongside Xu Yi and the others.
Additionally, a Sub-Star Gate with a diameter of three meters flew towards Base Alpha under the control of Xu Yi’s Spiritual Power.
Xu Yi plans to place the first Sub-Star Gate at a suitable location in Base Alpha.
From a distance, they could see the changes at Base Alpha.
The Meteorite Crater was the center, no longer surrounded by farmland but instead with many houses built.
These houses were not tall, two to three stories, all in a style of Chinese villas.
White walls and blue tiles, looking very beautiful.
They not only built houses but also paved roads with stones.
These stones naturally came from the plateau, where most of the mountain is made of hard stone, suitable for building houses and roads.
Using Telekinesis to mine, obtaining stone material is relatively easy.
The efficiency surpasses that of machines.
After Xu Yi and the others arrived, Liu Li and Cheng Jie rushed over and embraced Xu Yi.
Completing the challenge means their families can enter Spirit Blue Star, how could they not be excited?
After hugging for a while, the two released Xu Yi and then went to embrace Lu Ke and the others.
"Long live Xu Yi, long live Xu Yi."
The people at Base Alpha shouted excitedly.
They felt especially fortunate to be able to join Xu Yi’s team. Now, they have a chance to share in the fruits of victory. When their families arrive here, they can lead a happy life.
After a while, Cheng Jie and Liu Li led Xu Yi and the others along the wide stone road towards the Meteorite Crater.
Through a tall stone gate, they entered the interior of the Meteorite Crater.
Inside, flowers were in full bloom, with a fragrant aroma wafting around.
Everyone felt as if they had entered an ancient town depicted in poetry and painting.
"Sister Cheng, Sister Li, you’ve made this place so beautiful!"
"Yes, little bridges and flowing water, as if it’s a Jiangnan ancient village, it’s so beautiful."
"I thought I was at some tourist attraction, it’s amazing."
"It’s all thanks to Liu Li and the rest of the team’s efforts, everything here was designed by Liu Li," Cheng Jie stepped out to clarify.
She indeed didn’t contribute much, so couldn’t claim the credit.
"I also took inspiration from many design sketches, and it’s not just my credit, but the result of everyone’s hard work," Liu Li didn’t want to claim the credit either.
"You’ve all worked hard; take a few days to rest now. If anyone needs to return to Earth Star, do a tally and we’ll arrange for you to go back today," Xu Yi said to Cheng Jie and then took a stroll inside the Meteorite Crater.
Then, Xu Yi flew out of the Meteorite Crater with the Star Gate.
He found an appropriate location and fixed the Star Gate in place.
The Star Gate had many grooves designed for placing Energy Blocks.
Xu Yi used a level 7 Fierce Beast’s Brain Crystal to fill those grooves; so many Brain Crystals allow up to fifty thousand people to pass through.
On this planet, one level 3 Brain Crystal can allow 50 people to pass.
However, from Earth Star to Spirit Blue Star, one level 3 Brain Crystal can only allow one person to pass.
Everyone at the base hopes to return to Earth Star to see their families and bring them over.
This behavior, Xu Yi does permit.
However, it also requires psychological evaluation.
Problem cases will not be allowed into Spirit Blue Star either.
No exceptions, and no one holds that privilege.
Xu Yi ensures absolute fairness, with no issues.
Then, inevitably, people will ask, what about the challengers? The eliminated ones? What if they have issues?
After all, these people are not weak; if problematic, the impact could be greater.
Other problematic ones have died long ago or were eliminated.
Those who persevered until now have good mental fortitude.
Perhaps some have selfishness, or strong control desires. But there’s still a distance between them and being scum.
Of course, if they commit inhumane acts, Xu Yi will send them off right away.
"Xu Yi, this is the newcomer island where we first appeared, right?" Qin Fan noticed the familiar plants nearby and asked.
Because they had already passed through Base Alpha’s 3rd Star Gate to reach Newcomer Island.
"That’s right, this is Newcomer Island. That massive Star Gate is the main star gate to Earth Star," Xu Yi replied.
Returning this time are over thirty people from the base, along with Qin Fan.
Liu Li and Cheng Jie know Xu Yi plans to explore Spirit Blue Star, so they also plan to stay.
In at most a month’s time, Xu Yi can take them back.
"This vast island should accommodate billions of people. Are you planning to convert it into a base?" Qin Fan asked curiously, noting the sparse Spiritual Energy but safety of this place.
If all beasts and low-level Fierce Beasts are cleared, it’s absolutely safe.
"Yes, soon the Energy Barrier here will lose its effect, and Spiritual Energy will grow richer, making it suitable as a landing base. Once humans activate Telekinesis or awaken Spiritual Power and reach level two, they can pass through the second star gate to pioneer other places," Xu Yi explained.
With too weak strength, pioneering other places would be sending them to die.
For humanity to confront the Divine Race, it’s not enough for a handful of people to be strong; all of humanity must grow stronger.
