Chapter 1183: Chapter 814: Change (Part 2)
And it’s not just here at this port.
Pioneer Frontline.
Captain Lurik kicked away the still-charred drake lizard remains when a light figure suddenly descended from the treetops.
"Is your area cleared?"
The Elf Scout Captain unfolded the map on the interface and asked.
Though he and the other were not in the same team, the areas cleared by the two squads were adjacent, necessitating mutual aid between them.
This understanding had long been established, with the adventurers quickly adapting to the exploratory environment and spontaneously forming some beneficial unwritten rules.
With the arrival of the second batch of expeditionary forces, more adventurers were replenished.
Making the task of exploration considerably easier than before, which indeed was previously under immense pressure.
At this time, Healer Elisha in the team suddenly pointed to the sky: "The leaf is moving!"
The group looked up to see the obsidian leaf of the Iron Flower Structure hovering at the border between the swamp and the forest.
The Iron Flower Structure in the sky, combined with its massive size and the surrounding magic power glimmer, could be easily detected from afar.
They simply hadn’t noticed the changes in the sky due to being engaged in battle.
As golden light flowed through the leaf veins, tens of prefabricated watchtower apparitions suddenly rose on the boundary.
Two of them appeared not far from them, clearly visible.
And on their map, it was also marked.
The only ones who could make adjustments to their maps to some degree were certain individuals among the Night Watchers.
The elven rune stone at the Elf Captain’s waist suddenly glowed with a gentle green light—this was the first time in months that pure natural magic power had been sensed on the Tariel Continent.
"I have to return to the port, as agreed earlier, exploration tasks are temporarily halted..."
The elf’s voice trembled slightly, "Something must have happened at the port. The flower’s ability is somewhat strange."
After all, they were pioneering on the frontline and couldn’t just return at any time, so even though the Iron Flower rose to the sky a week ago, they did not rashly return to the port because they were clearing the hazards of the current area at that time.
Now, it seemed unavoidable to return, as they needed to understand what exactly the Iron Flower Structure had brought about.
In a place unknown to them, the Night Watcher’s construction teams were heading toward the frontlines of various pioneering areas.
And that Iron Flower was also hovering over the frontlines of the exploration zone.
Morning the next day.
Head Victor wiped away the acid from his armor and was suddenly awakened by the metallic screeching of metal.
Under the dawn’s light, the temporary defense line support pillar that was fractured by the Rock Armor Beast last night reappeared.
And a faint apparition appeared on the originally destroyed defense line, where some maintenance teams could be seen fortifying some defenses from afar.
The reinforcement speed was very fast, almost visible to the naked eye.
Lieutenant Erin rushed up to the city wall: "Head! The Night Watchers sent several construction teams over last night!"
At the entrance of the fortress, three defense towers that didn’t exist last night were unfolding.
A mercenary wrapped in bandages leaned against the nearby rest area, gazing dazedly.
And muttered to the confused wounded who were just brought over: "You know what? Yesterday, I watched as three apparitions appeared here, then I went out to take a leak and feel the breeze. When I returned, one tower was already built.
The other two were built right before my eyes, and in just a few hours, they were completed."
The construction of the port hadn’t been so fast a while ago either.
At that time, the Night Watcher’s construction speed could only be described as efficient because they could clearly see how the construction people used various alchemy equipment and spatial pockets to quickly build structures.
But it’s different this time.
The Night Watcher’s technology has updated, and he completely couldn’t understand it, feeling puzzled.
Atop the floating tower of the port.
Lurik held the authority handle, and a three-dimensional image of the map on the interface was showing him the currently controlled area.
The green dots representing the Night Watchers had penetrated into the Corrupted Forest, while the light green dots representing adventurers were densely scattered everywhere.
Various architectural apparitions stood at various locations, with construction team avatars moving quickly on the 3D map.
From time to time, a building could be seen completed with a notification sound.
Lurik had to admit that merely looking at the map, at the surrounding data, and at the changes in the buildings, he had a strange sense of immersion.
And he didn’t find it boring at all.
This type of interface wasn’t just in his hands; it also existed in the hands of many port administrators.
Everyone was adapting to this new thing, adapting to the new changes brought by the Iron Flower Structure.
A lot of previous plans were overturned, as the appearance of the Iron Flower Structure clearly accelerated their expansion progress, solving many of their previous problems and some stages that needed patiently waiting over time.
Their used experience and data were transmitted back to Ring Tower City and into Bobo’s team’s hands in real-time.
...
Ring Tower City.
A secret floating structure.
This floating structure was just hovering in the midsection of Ring Tower City, but due to the special surrounding construction, the building always stayed invisible.
And this floating structure was exactly Bobo’s team office, highly secretive, with various defensive measures personally established by Kana.
Currently in the central experimental area.
Kana was standing here.
"What do you think about the changes in the warship port? Does it fit your idea of the Earthly Divine Kingdom?"
Bobo asked from beside him.
In terms of datafication research, to be honest, they really couldn’t compare to Kana, who always managed to propose all sorts of bizarre ideas effortlessly.
Now they were all still adjusting their Earthly Divine Kingdom plan according to Kana’s ideas.
Upon hearing Bobo’s words, Kana nodded beside him.
Praisingly, Kana said, "Frankly, to be able to produce some experimental results so quickly, although not up to expectations, reaching the current level in such a short time is pretty impressive.
It’s much better than I thought, the current research path has no issues; the data-driven Earthly Divine Kingdom I want is like this.
Once the Earthly Divine Kingdom plan succeeds, even if the Void descends, we will at least be able to perfectly defend the Lebia continent."
Before he could finish, Bobo hurriedly interrupted.
"Alright, don’t get ahead of yourself, these experimental results contain some elements of luck. Your high expectations put a lot of pressure on me."
After all, what Kana just said was stating that once the Earthly Divine Kingdom plan was completed.
The guaranteed results of the action would appear.
It means that they could at least keep a region intact under the world-destructive Void disaster.
And it’s not just any region, but an entire continent.
Don’t underestimate this.
Compared to world destruction or Pyrrhic victory.
This would be a tremendous success, enabling them to enter a golden period of rapid development afterwards.
Such guaranteed results inevitably put immense pressure on Bobo.
"No rush, even at its fastest, the peak of the Void’s invasion is still two or three decades away. With our current capabilities, we can withstand the invasion of the Void Vanguard for another two to three decades.
But I must say, the Earthly Divine Kingdom plan must be completed within twenty years, otherwise we will have no time to adapt afterward."
Bobo nodded.
"Don’t push it, I already regret calling you back, hurry along now, and I’ll summon you next time there’s progress. We don’t need your power involved yet.
Also, if possible, escalate the intensity of the Abyss war a bit. I am preparing to place an experimental subject in the Abyss to collect more data.
Afterward, I will dispatch a small team to the Abyss, and you should prepare for that in advance."
Kana casually nodded to indicate no problem.
"Don’t worry, my current body is just a clone with my will transferred into it.
My true form is still in the Abyss, so don’t feel it wastes my time."
