Chapter 664: A Terrifying LegacyTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Bureau Chief, currently, everyone is working around the clock on the tunnel. We have dug a tunnel that"s about half a meter in width all the way to the cave.” The soldier softly reported, “We have already let down a rope into the tunnel, but according to your orders, we didn"t send any human or camera devices in. We waited for the Young Master to come.” Last time, when Hong Dali discovered the Immium ore and Dali Beans, after they went back, the Bureau Chief felt extremely proud of his decision. From then on, he gave a death order that no one other than Hong Dali himself was allowed to go down first to places where the land was bought by Hong Dali.
After all, things like luck weren"t something that could be seen and touched. But it did exist, they couldn"t deny that.
“Not bad.” The Bureau Chief patted the soldier"s shoulder in satisfaction. Then, he looked at Hong Dali and said, “Dali, shall we go now?”
“Sure.” To protect his handsome face, Hong Dali decisively nodded and said, “Let"s go down and take a look!” Hong Dali was very clear about how the System worked now. Spending 200,000 Galaxy Dollars in two months" time was just a small mission, the crucial one was what was after that—Hong Dali was very sure that the next time would definitely be to spend a million or even two million Galaxy Dollars in half a year"s time. If he didn"t hurry up and try to connect to the Universe, he would lose his handsome face after failing the missions…
That"s so scary!
“Let"s see what treasures are down there to let me squander, hehehe.” Thinking of this, Hong Dali was the first to move off. Then, the rest all followed. They didn"t have time to bother about the things on the road as they walked past, it was more important following tightly to Hong Dali!
They walked very quickly and entered a small cave, the entrance only being two meters tall and wide. The deeper they walked in, the broader the path became, eventually increasing to a height of three meters. As they continued forward, the path started to slope down more and more, at an angle of about 30 degrees. As they walked down, the soldier following them introduced. “A rabbit brought us to this place. Outside was originally covered with weed. If we don"t look carefully, we wouldn"t have found this place. Then, the rabbit loitered around the entrance. We reckoned that since the Young Master likes animals, this rabbit might be a bit abnormal, so we followed it here.”
Yup, it looked like Hong Dali had successfully conquered Earth through the animals…
As they continued forward, the soldier wasn"t able to follow anymore. At this time, a researcher came and carried on leading them. He had the appearance of a mad scientist, having messy hair and bloodshot eyes that were obviously the result of working overnight. Upon seeing Hong Dali, he was instantly excited and loudly shouted, “Young Master Dali, you are finally here. You are my idol! For the Young Master Dali, Dali Creates Miracles!” What the heck, he was actually a member of the Dali Divine Sect!
“Ah, about that, Dr. Hu Yang, please pray to G.o.d later.” Sweat rained down the Bureau Chief"s face as he hurriedly stopped this Dr. Hu Yang"s fanaticism. He then asked, “Dr. Hu Yang, what"s the current situation inside?”
“Inside?” Luckily, Dr. Hu Yang very quickly realized that this wasn"t the time to pray to G.o.d and became serious. “According to the detections, the cave is above 1,126 meters deep. We can be sure that it"s a man-made cave, just that no one dared to go in any further—no one dares to go in before the Young Master has gone in first.” Upon mentioning Hong Dali, his eyes became fanatical again…
“Ah, OK.” The Bureau Chief nodded in satisfaction and said, “Let"s prepare to go in then!”
Everyone replied, “Yes, Sir!”
The first group of people to go down was only a group of three: Hong Dali, the Bureau Chief, Deca.
Hong Dali was the main character, so there naturally wasn"t a need to talk about him. No one would dare to enter before he did. The Bureau Chief was in charge of recording the information inside. Being the Bureau Chief of the National Security Bureau, his memory and a.n.a.lyzing skills were quite good. Most importantly, compared to Hong Dali"s lackeys, he had his own view and say, and because of his seniority, it was easier for him to speak up. At least, for many questions, it would be more convenient for the Bureau Chief to ask. As for Deca, he was the only one present who had an understanding of aliens. If he wasn"t around to explain things to them, Hong Dali and the Bureau Chief might not be able to understand a lot of things by themselves even if they tried for their entire lives.
Very quickly, they came to the small hole leading downwards. It was a small hole that was about half a meter in diameter. Hong Dali didn"t know how they managed to dig this tunnel, but he could guess that it was definitely high-technological stuff. Of course, there wasn"t a need to mind the details—a person who could drive normally wouldn"t be bothered about how the car worked, right? It was fine as long as it was usable…
“Then, I shall go down first!” Hong Dali walked to the hole first. Actually, he wanted to just jump down, but the hole was a bit small, and he was afraid that if the System b.u.mped him up with air, he might get stuck—if that happened, things would really be interesting. That would really become a situation where he couldn"t go either up or down…
After Hong Dali, the second person was Deca, then the Bureau Chief.
If they had to walk down step by step for the 1,200 plus meters, that would take forever. Luckily, the rope was made from a special material. Coupled with the specially-made gloves that Dr. Hu Yang gave them and the climbing tools, it was quite fast sliding down the rope—therefore, half an hour later, they finally arrived at the large cave. This place was the mysterious man-made cave under Water Spirit Village"s land.
They had brought quite a lot of lighting equipment with them. Therefore, very quickly, the mysterious cave started to light up gradually. Then, with just a single look, Deca instantly sucked in a deep breath!
That was a metal fortress of about 40 meters tall. This metal fortress was in the shape of a ball, the current exposed part, therefore, seemed to be a cover of a wok, just shy of being half a ball.
Of course, this wasn"t the reason why Deca was surprised.
What really caused him to be completely stunned was the material quality of this huge fortress.
“Teddy alloy! It"s actually made from Teddy alloy! The whole fortress is made of Teddy alloy!” Deca rushed up like a fire was burning his b.u.t.t. He ran super-fast, practically running at full speed. Charging up to the fortress in just a few steps, he looked it closely up-down-left-right, then said, “Teddy alloy, it"s really Teddy alloy! Look at this l.u.s.ter, this hardness! G.o.d…”
Speaking of which, at the start, Deca was still quite hesitant. Everything on this Planet was super valuable, if he hid their true value from them and secretly stole them, that would definitely earn him enough money to use for several lifetimes.
But in the end, he came around.
This Hong Dali was too miraculous. Although these items would be very valuable if he secretly stole them, he really didn"t dare to do so. Because of Hong Dali"s prowess—if he made Hong Dali angry, the consequences would be hard to say. After all, those two mechas made from Immium alloy were still there. Heaven knew what kind of weapons they were equipped with.
Therefore, thinking about this, the choice became simple.
Deca decided to completely cooperate with Hong Dali and truly serve him. In that case, at least Hong Dali would get a large part of the benefit and he could gain some benefits too. What"s more, he wouldn"t have to worry about the consequences.
“Since when did teddy produce alloys?” Walking forward, Hong Dali stood beside him and asked, “I only know that teddies are very cute…”
“Teddy alloy!” As if he were in a dream, Deca said, “Teddy alloy is a very expensive metal in the Universe. Each ton costs about 300 Galaxy Dollars. This large fortress looks like it used hundreds of thousands of tons of it! The cost of this…”
Well, that"s another hundred millions or so Galaxy Dollars entering my hands again.
Hong Dali sniffled and said, “Deca, what exactly is this Teddy alloy? You said that it"s very valuable, but there should be a certain use for it, right?” Yup, Hong Dali was always very insensitive to numbers; it wasn"t like numbers could be used as food anyway…
“Teddy alloy is the best material for s.h.i.+pbuilding. It"s heat resistant, pressure-resistant, and very stable during s.p.a.ce oscillation!” Deca touched the surface of the metal fortress and muttered, “This is the stuff that only the truly high-cla.s.s people in the Galaxy Alliance can afford to use. What"s more, they have to be a super-wealthy person from the n.o.ble race in the Milky Way Alliance, the Beta people, to be able to afford this! I didn"t expect that I would see this here, this is really… The legacy left on your Planet is really terrifying!”
Two mechas made from Immium alloy, a Thunder Angel made from Tedam deformed alloy, and now a fortress made from Teddy alloy…
Actually, before he came, although Deca did think that Hong Dali was very strong, subconsciously, he still felt that Earth was just a rural village type of place. No matter how strong Hong Dali was, that was just one person, it didn"t represent the entire civilization.
But after really coming here, he very depressingly realized.
Compared to Earth, they were really the ones from a rural village—only such a short time had pa.s.sed and they had already found a whole set of equipment to go for s.p.a.ce traveling…
“My decision is correct! My decision is correct…” Ever since hearing what Deca said, the Bureau Chief was continuously mumbling at the side, “Asking Dali to be the first one to enter was really a brilliant idea…”
Yup, just from this point alone, the Bureau Chief"s foresight was indeed not bad…
“Oh, I see.” Hong Dali didn"t express anything special but just asked. “Then, how do I go in this stuff?”
It was no wonder he asked this because, from their view, this thing was just a ball, a gigantic round ball…
“Honestly speaking, I am also not sure what this really is.” Deca shrugged and said, “My level isn"t high enough to get to know this level of stuff. Therefore, I am sorry to say that I can"t help you with this.”
“Oh…” Hong Dali looked around and said, “Then, there must surely be some kind of clue or something, right? There must be a way for the people inside to come out, right?”
“A clue?” Hearing Hong Dali say this, Deca quickly thought through and said, “Mr. Bureau Chief, please send people down here to light this entire place up. I think we should be able to find some clues about the owner, things like wordings and such.”
“Okay!” Towards this kind of stuff, the Bureau Chief was very familiar with the process and hurriedly made the call.
About three hours later.
The originally silent cave bustled with people and sound. Small searchlights were racked up all around. Other than Hong Dali"s lackeys, about 30 plus researchers also came down.
They had long ago heard of how amazing Hong Dali was, and had also seen the video of the typhoon with their own eyes. Therefore, upon seeing this metal fortress, they didn"t think it was strange at all—even if it was a legendary huge dragon sleeping here, they wouldn"t be in the least surprised.
“What a pity, there"s only this stupid metal sh.e.l.l here. It"s not fitting of Young Master status at all,” said Dr. Hu Yang.
