Chapter 542 Creations in the Void Universe
Hearing what Zuoqiu Xunshuang said, Lu Ze nodded and smiled. “h.e.l.lo, aunty Zuoqiu.” “Yes, good boy.”
Zuoqiu Xunshuang nodded in satisfaction, then she seemed to have recalled something as she turned to Nangong Jing. “Oh right, how is old man Nangong recently? I haven’t gone back for quite a long time.” When Nangong Jing heard that, she rolled her eyes. “He’s already a cosmic state being, why wouldn’t he be well?”
Zuoqiu Xunshuang was upset and said, “Isn’t this a normal greeting between family members? I didn’t say anything wrong. It’s like that in the olden days as well!”
After that, Zuoqiu Xunshuang immediately changed the subject. “Oh, your dad isn’t back yet?”
Nangong Jing shook her head. “Not yet.”
Nangong Jing’s father was just like Alice’s father, they both came out of the Milky Way to help Alice look for the higher energy that could awaken her source flame. They had not contacted the Milky Way for a very long time.
The Federation also had no means of contacting outside the Milky Way and was unable to tell them that Alice’s source flame had begun to awaken already.
Hence, they weren’t sure how Nangong Jing’s father and Alice’s father were doing. Zuoqiu Xunshuang nodded. “Oh.”
Alice, who had been next to Lu Ze, looked apologetic-it was all because of her that many of the higher-ups in the Federation were looking for the higher energy outside.
But…
A tinge of resoluteness flashed in her eyes. Now that she could cultivate, she would become stronger and return the favor of those who had been nice to her.
She would protect the future of the human race well!
The atmosphere turned silent, then Nangong Jing asked curiously, “Mom, what kind of place is Shenwu City?”
Zuoqiu Xunshuang smiled, “Shenwu City is the largest city in the void border. There are people in the Shenwu military who are on vacation, and some adventure squads gather there as well. These adventure squads would exchange the resources they acquired from the void border or take on various missions.”
“Missions?”
Lu Ze and the others had expressions of doubt.
There were missions at Shenwu City?
Zuoqiu Xunshuang glanced at Lu Ze and smiled. “There are many missions at the void border. All of you will get to take on missions when you have enough experience in the future. Sometimes, the Shenwu military has a lack of manpower and would ask the help of strong adventure squads when some situations arise at the void border. Of course, there are also adventure squads that issue a mission or a mission issued by the inner region of the Federation.”
“The missions come in many forms, and the most popular ones are the Shenwu military missions. Usually, the Shenwu military missions would award those with merits, and they can be used to exchange for treasures in the Shenwu’s treasure trove, which are even more precious than the things at the Dawn System. You guys can take a look when the time comes.”
Hearing what Zuoqiu Xunshuang said, everyone looked very excited. They thought that the resources in the Dawn System and the Federation’s martial artist site were already the most comprehensive and precious resources in the Federation. They did not expect that Zuoqiu Xunshuang actually said that the treasure trove of the Shenwu military was more precious than the Dawn System—this made them very eager.
With that said, Zuoqiu Xunshuang paused. “You guys are all the Federation’s prodigies and had gone through quite a number of battles before already. You can take on your own mission, but it’s best to do it in a team. It would be very dangerous if anything happens.”
Lu Ze was somewhat taken aback. “We’re not going to the Shenwu military?”
He initially thought that they were going to the Shenwu military barracks and would cooperate with them. But it seemed like they were going to be on their own?
Zuoqiu Xunshuang smiled. “The Shenwu military are mostly in-charge of guarding the void border or the void universe stations. Although they do have times when they go out to fight, it isn’t suitable for you guys at the moment, so all of you should just take on your own mission. The rewards you’d receive depends on yourself.”
Everyone was very eager to fight and Lin Kuang grinned. “This is better.” The more missions they take on and complete, the more rewards they would receive. As for these young dukes who were very confident in their strength, it was the best scenario.
After that, Zuoqiu Xunshuang chatted with everyone about the overall situation at the void border and void universe.
Within 200,000 light-years of the void border, the Federation would have a garrison, and it was relatively less dangerous. There may be enemies, but most of them were only at the mortal evolution state.
Perhaps there would be some at the planetary state level, but this was very rare.
However, 200,000 light-years away, there would be a lot of strong planetary state beings, and there might even be star level beings.
Zuoqiu Xunshuang had warned them.
It was best for them to stay close to the garrison because even if planetary state beings appeared near the garrison, they would be cleared out in time, and it would not be too dangerous.
Otherwise, with their novice mortal evolution state power, they might not even know how they died.
Everyone looked at one another.
The void border was even more dangerous than they thought.
They were now akin to little chicks that just learned how to be independent and could die any time.
They were flying in the sky as they were speaking and very soon, they saw a very majestic city.
OVVO
The city had a circ.u.mference of hundreds of kilometers, and there were many huge black alloy buildings.
In the city, there was a black tower between each area. These black towers formed a pyramid shape and were a few kilometers tall —they look very conspicuous.
Lu Ze looked at the tall tower and asked out of curiosity, “Aunty Zuoqiu, what’s this?”
Zuoqiu Xunshuang laughed and explained, “These are star level spirit powered cannons.”
Spirit powered cannons??
Everyone’s eyes widened as they looked at these cannons in shock. One must know that even in the inner region of the Federation, it was already very high-end to possess artillery that can destroy stars, but they actually have star level artillery??
Seeing how shocked everyone was, Zuoqiu Xunshuang smiled again and explained, “This wasn’t invented by our Federation. In fact, the strongest cannon that our Federation could invent is only at the higher discipline of the planetary state. These are creations derived from some of the ruins of destroyed civilization in the void universe. “
“Creations from the void universe?”
Everyone was jealous.
So was Lu Ze.
They didn’t expect that there were actually such good things in the void universe??
This was a star level spirit powered cannon ah!!
Even Lu Ze wanted it.
Seeing how jealous everyone was, Zuoqiu Xunshuang couldn’t help but pour cold water over them. “Don’t even think about it. Historical remains like this would definitely have been exploited in those regions that you’ll be in. If there are indeed relics, they would only be in the depths of the void universe and that is not where you can go now.”
After all, this void universe was 2 million light-years long, the width was vast; even if the Federal had explored for thousands of years, it was only a small area. Also, even if there were graves of elites, relics, precious minerals, and other things, Zuoqiu Xunshuang didn’t find it surprising at all.
Not only the Shenwu military, but even other civilizations were also exploring the void universe actively, and there would always be brutal killings when they encountered a hostile race.
Zuoqiu Xunshuang was only telling them about the dangers they might encounter. At places where they couldn’t see, there was a darker tide.
Of course, that degree of danger wasn’t something these weak little young dukes could endure.
Everybody was slightly disappointed after hearing what Zuoqiu Xunshuang said. Zuoqiu Xunshuang smiled. “When you guys breakthrough into the planetary state, you could also choose to join the Shenwu military. By then, if you discover a relic, you would be able to choose the resources you need first.”
Hearing that, everyone’s eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with eagerness.
Although there were a number of adventure squads that invited them, this was their first time they saw a star level creation and had a certain understanding of the treasures outside the Milky Way.
Joining the Shenwu military may not be a bad choice, huh?
How many resources would a relic get you? Just think about it. Even Lu Ze was a little excited. Although he didn’t require a lot of resources to cultivate, he still needed some things.
Just like his exclusive armor; wearing the armor would increase his power by two-folds. Although he couldn’t use it in the pocket hunting dimension, he could still use it outside.
Also, what if he found something awesome that could be used in the pocket hunting dimension next time, huh?
Lu Ze got extremely eager just thinking about
it.
Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were excited as well, but they would wait for Lu Ze and the rest.
Zuoqiu Xunshuang saw everyone’s reaction and burst out laughing. Although there were many elites in the Shenwu military and there was no lack of prodigies, it was pretty good if they could invite these young dukes to join the Shenwu military.
She laughed. “Alright, you have six months to practice here, as to whether to join the Shenwu military, you guys can think about it later. Go down first for now.”
As she spoke, she led them to an eye-catching building in the middle of Shenwu City and landed there.
After they landed, Lu Ze realized that there were many people rus.h.i.+ng around this area, and it was bustling with activity.
These people looked distressed and had very strong chi. Most of them were mortal evolution state beings, and there were some planetary state beings who walked past. There were very few in the aperture opening state. Lu Ze and the others were a little shocked to see so many elites gathered in one place.
This was their first time seeing so many elites in one area.
One must know that a planetary state being was very rare in the inner region of the Federation, and there were only one or two of them in a legion.
They saw over a dozen of them here—wasn’t this a little too many??
