Chapter 2208: A Person’s Ambition
Laura and the others’ status in Coiling Dragon City was no longer low. Since they were good at teaching the Long Clan’s children, and the Long Clan placed great importance on educating the young generation, teachers like them became popular people in the Long Clan.
Because of this, when Laura and the others sent their request for vacation, the Long Clan immediately agreed. Then after making arrangements for the courtyard, everyone entered the s.p.a.ce.
It has been some time since the group stayed inside the s.p.a.ce. To them, there was no place as good as the s.p.a.ce. It was the safest place for Zhao Hai and the others.
After entering the s.p.a.ce, Zhao Hai waved his hand and took out a metallic cube. The cube was only the size of a person’s fist, but it had abstract patterns all throughout its body.
Laura and the others were attracted to the cube. After looking at the Allspark for some time, Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, this Allspark is too small. The one I saw in the movie was much bigger.”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “It’s actually big. The Allspark can change its size at will.” After he said that, the Allspark in his hand increased in size and became as big as a basketball. This made it even more majestic.
Seeing the Allspark changing its size, Laura nodded, “This is the Allspark that we recognize. Right, Brother Hai, can Liquid Silver fuse with the Allspark?”
When he heard this, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but stare. He didn’t think about fusing Liquid Silver and the Allspark. Now that Laura said it, Zhao Hai ‘s eyes shone. Now he wanted to see what would happen if the Allspark is fused with Liquid Silver.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hai waved his hand and took out a chunk of flowing metal. When Liquid Silver got in contact with the Allspark, what Zhao Hai expected didn’t happen. As soon as Liquid Silver touched the Allspark, the two merged and then rapidly spun. It took a while before it stopped. After the process was done, Zhao Hai was stunned.
Liquid Silver and the Allspark turned into another appearance. In front of Zhao Hai wasn’t Liquid Silver nor the Allspark. It was a very long magic staff, more than a meter long. Its entire body was silver with various abstract patterns throughout. At the tip of the staff was a cube that kept rotating.
Seeing this transformation, Zhao Hai didn’t know what he was supposed to do. Then he suddenly heard a prompt, “Liquid Silver and the Allspark has been fused. The fusion has resulted in the Machine G.o.d’s Scepter. The scepter retains the functions of liquid silver as well as the Allspark. However, this transformation made it impossible for the host to absorb the staff. If the host fuses the staff with his body, a cube will float near the host’s head.”
Zhao Hai stared. He didn’t expect Liquid Silver and the Allspark to cause a transformation. Moreover, he could no longer fuse Liquid Silver with his body. However, Zhao Hai liked the style of his new staff. He looked at the staff with glee as he held it.
After inspecting the staff for a while, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but sigh. If he kept the staff, its characteristics would be very obvious. He’s currently on an undercover mission. Having it on him would only attract trouble.
Laura and the others s.n.a.t.c.hed the new staff from Zhao Hai’s hand and played with it. The staff’s new style was very attractive. Unfortunately, only Zhao Hai could use the staff. Laura and the others could only look at it.
Seeing that Laura and the others were done looking at the staff, Zhao Hai said, “Alright, let’s head off and see the s.p.a.ce’s Transformers. They are real transformers.”
As soon as they heard Zhao Hai, Laura and the others became excited. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Can we see Optimus Prime?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “If you like Optimus Prime, I’ll let you ride him. What do you think?”
Laura nodded and said, “Good. Let’s see Optimus Prime.”
At the same time, the other women said which Transformer they liked to see. Naturally, Zhao Hai wouldn’t oppose them. Although the transformers produced by the s.p.a.ce were not like the ones from the movies, having the s.p.a.ce’s Transformers a.s.sume their forms wouldn’t be a problem. Despite the difference in personality, anything else could be made similar.
Zhao Hai arranged all of the Transformers into a different s.p.a.ce. Since all of them were machine life, he arranged them into a technology s.p.a.ce so that they could build their own civilization.
The new s.p.a.ce’s Transformers did a very good job. It didn’t take long before they created a pure machine civilization.
But since the s.p.a.ce’s Transformers just began making their civilization, they only established one city. There was nothing special yet.
The city established by the s.p.a.ce’s Transformers was quite special. Their city was completely made out of metal and was very high-tech. Although the city can’t fly, it could move about. In fact, the city was always moving.
Zhao Hai didn’t expect these machine beings to create such an advanced city in a short time.
However, as soon as he saw their process of construction, Zhao Hai understood how they could create a city quickly. It was because of the nan.o.bots.
One could say that the nan.o.bots only had two abilities – Construction and Destruction. They could work nonstop. And when they need to trash something, they only need to deconstruct it and recreate it into something useful. The nan.o.bots’ potential seemed endless, which was terrifying in itself.
Looking at the moving city, Laura’s eyes couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ne, “It’s beautiful. However, it looks too rough. Brother Hai, why didn’t you teach them how to decorate?”
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, “As you know, these Transformers have their own idea of civilization. They’re the same as the robots of the s.p.a.ce. Just let them build their own civilization. Right, these are for you.” As he said that, Zhao Hai took out a few bracelets and gave them to his wives. The bracelets were made out of simple-looking metallic b.a.l.l.s.
Laura and the others looked at Zhao Hai in confusion. Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “These bracelets are nano beads. If you want to use it, input energy into it and it would create a lot of nan.o.bots. As for how useful they could be, I think there’s no need for me to explain it to you.”
Laura and the others excitedly nodded. Naturally, they knew what the nan.o.bots could do. Although they liked the original transformers, they were also aware of the usefulness of the nan.o.bots. Moreover, these small robots were very easy to use.
After the women wore the bracelets on their hands, Zhao Hai said, “You should bring high-quality metals with you at all times. The quality of the nan.o.bots rely on the quality of the source material. If you encounter danger in the future, you can use the nan.o.bots to create weapons or armor. So, you need the material to be good.”
Laura and the others nodded. It can be said that these metal bracelets were some version of Liquid Silver. As long as the nan.o.bots have enough energy, their construction speed could be astonis.h.i.+ng.
Zhao Hai also wore a metal bracelet on his hand. This metal bracelet was what he plans to use in the underground world. Meanwhile, he would show the Machine G.o.d Scepter in the True Spirit Realm.
To be honest, Zhao Hai wasn’t happy with the new name. He much preferred it to be called Liquid Spark Scepter. After all, it was a fusion of Liquid Silver and the Allspark.
In any case, its name was not a huge issue. Now that Zhao Hai has this scepter, he could command all machine lives. At the same time, it could be Zhao Hai’s symbol of power.
After resting in the s.p.a.ce for three days, Zhao Hai and the others returned to the Tyrant Blade Sect. When they returned, they immediately greeted the Yin Yang Elders. It has been some time since Laura and the others saw the Yin Yang Elders, but the two elders were still in their minds.
The Yin Yang Elders looked after Zhao Hai. Therefore, Zhao Hai and the others were very respectful to the elders. Therefore, it was appropriate for them to visit the two elders first after returning to the sect.
The two elders’ days have been very good. Because Zhao Hai and the others weren’t present, they didn’t need to suppress their killing aura. This caused their killing aura to become mellower, which made the two old men happy.
After giving their greetings to the old men, Zhao Hai and the others sat down. The Yin Elder looked at Zhao Hai and said, “How did you have time to come back?”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I heard that the sect is having some troubles, so I came back. Master, what’s happening? Is the Sword Hegemon Sect and its allies causing trouble? Are they born in the year of the boar? Aren’t they afraid of being hit?”
The Yin Elder smiled faintly and said, “They are always causing trouble. However, their moves aren’t too big. We didn’t get into a huge conflict with them. Maybe their restrictions are caused by the Ghost Cultivator attack that just happened. They didn’t dare underestimate us, so they held back.”
Zhao Hai nodded, “What is the sect doing now? Is it the same as before? Do you fight a few battles and then take a step back like nothing happened?”
The Yin Elder shook his head and said, “There’s no other way. The two sides have around the same strength. If it really devolves into a full-on battle, others will benefit instead. It’s not just them who are causing trouble nowadays. The Devil and Demonic Sects are also making noise. If a conflict within the Righteous Sect happens, the two factions will greatly benefit.”
When he heard the Yin Elder, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but frown, “How is that possible? If we really fought like this, the consequences would be unimaginable. The Ghost Cultivators are eyeing the True Spirit Realm. If the True Spirit Realm turned chaotic, the Ghost Cultivators would certainly head up and cause trouble. Once the Ghost Cultivators gain a foothold in the True Spirit Realm, it would be difficult to push them back. Don’t forget that the Ghost Cultivators have the underground world as their rear base. On the other hand, what do we have?”
The Yin Elder smiled bitterly and said, “Of course we know this. I believe a lot of people know. However, some of those may be in bed with the Ghost Cultivators. They want the True Spirit Realm to become chaotic. There are also ambitious people who want to take advantage of the chaos. Ambition can turn the sanest person crazy.”
Hearing the Yin Elder, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Although he had plenty of methods, it was impossible for him to control a person’s ambition. Not only in the True Spirit Realm, Zhao Hai also couldn’t control people’s ambition in the s.p.a.ce. At any point, there would be wars in several s.p.a.ces. All of these were caused by ambition.”
Zhao Hai didn’t control this. He didn’t want to turn the people in the s.p.a.ce into puppets. He left them on their own, and they did what they wanted to do.
Naturally, no matter what the people in the s.p.a.ce did, their faith towards Zhao Hai would never change. Even if they waged war against each other, it was because of their own ambitions.
And in the True Spirit Realm, ambition once more bared its fangs. The Demon and Devil Factions wanted to obtain more power and wealth. Therefore, war was unavoidable. Although they haven’t made their moves, from the Yin Yang Elders’ words, the arrow has already been pulled back. War was bound to happen.
