Solar System-Moon Base.
Zhao Yu was checking the exchange list in the control room when he suddenly found something he had never seen before.
[Mini Base: You can spend certain technology points to send a mini base to the clone.]
[E-grade Mini Base: Can produce technology items from level 0-0.5. Exchange required: 10,000 technology points.]
[D-grade Mini Base: Can produce technology items from level 0.5-1. Exchange required: 100,000 technology points.]
“THIS?!”
Zhao Yu quickly asked the system to elaborate for more details.
After the explanation, he realized that the clones were originally a part of him and bore his soul imprint.
The existing base was already established at the moon and as part of him among the clones, the system created a trimmed-down version based on the current base.
The capabilities of these trimmed-down versions depended on the technology he had on the moon base.
Besides, these trimmed-down systems could not upgrade on their own and could only exchange for the technology.
This meant that if he exchanged for a mini base here, he could directly send it to the other two clones. This would not only ensure their safety but also accelerate their development.
“I didn’t notice this before…”
Zhao Yu scratched his head, thinking that if he had discovered this earlier and sent it to the first clone, he might have unified the entire Neptune by now.
However, it wasn’t too late. Glancing at his remaining technology points, he had just over 90,000, most of which he had obtained when Colonel Chu destroyed the military unit of the Fire Fury Civilization.
“1 can only exchange two E-grade mini bases for the two clones…”
As the clones were also him, having such a trimmed-down system would greatly increase their chances of survival.
The clone on Neptune was fine since their consciousness was already connected. If there were any problems, he could seek analysis from the Uncle Da and the system established on moon.
But he had no idea what the second clone was facing, so this was exactly what it needed.
[Do you wish to spend 10,000 technology points to exchange an E-grade mini base for the first clone?]
Yes!
[Do you wish to spend 10,000 technology points to exchange an E-grade mini base for the second clone?]
Yes!
Without any hesitation, Zhao Yu exchanged for the two mini bases.
According to the system, an A-grade mini base could exchange for technology items just like his main base, but the price was exorbitant, an astronomical figure he didn’t dare to think about.
The most probable mini bases he could exchange for the clones in the future were D-grade and C-grade, costing 100,000 and 1,000,000 technology points respectively.
With the title “King of War,” as long as the secret base under Colonel Chu was successfully built and began to destroy the empire’s military units, his technology points would significantly increase.
“E-grade mini base, that should be enough for the second clone…”
After leaving the fallout shelter, Zhao Yu headed in the direction of the Meng family’s residence in the dark.
After traveling ten kilometers in one night, Zhao Yu should be able to reach his destination by tomorrow night.
As dawn approached, Zhao Yu found a thick tree trunk and tied himself to it, covering himself with some camouflage made from tree leaves he had prepared in advance.
“Roar—!”
A thunderous roar jolted Zhao Yu from his sleep.
Zhao Yu looked in the direction of the sound, prepared to flee if danger approached him.
“Thump-!” “Thump—!”
Even while lying on the tree trunk, Zhao Yu felt the tremor, as if some colossal creature was moving on the ground.
“Mutated beast!”
In the original host’s memory, he had once caught a fleeting glimpse of a mutated beast.
It was a grotesque monster several tens of meters tall. It seemed more like a conglomeration of various beings.
Its appearance was hideous, but it was also incredibly terrifying. The sheer size of the creature alone was enough to pose a significant threat to an entire city.
Beyond the roars of the mutated beast, Zhao Yu faintly heard gunfire.
“Could it be that humans are battling with the mutated beast?!”
The sound of the gunfire that not even louder than the beast’s roars. Zhao Yu predicted their firepower might not sufficient enough to confront the mutant beast.
“It couldn’t be , could it be Meng House Village?”
The source of the roar was in the direction he was heading towards Meng House Village.
“Could my luck be this bad?!”
Zhao Yu intently listened to the distant noises. About half an hour passed, and the sound of gunfire had almost ceased, but the roars continued intermittently.
Based on this half-hour of listening, Zhao Yu noticed that each roar seemed to convey different emotions.
The initial roars were filled with rage. Later on, that sense of anger seemed to fade, replaced by a kind of majesty, as if the beast was declaring its territory.
Zhao Yu wasn’t overly concerned about the mutated beast. According to rumors, mutated beasts didn’t deliberately hunt down individual humans.
The size difference was vast. To the mutated beast, an individual human was insignificant, not even worth the effort of a snack.
Unless there was a large pack of humans, only then would it possibly pique the beast’s interest.
“It seems this mutated beast found Meng House Village…”
Upon seeing the beast approach, they would surely retaliate. However, the outcome seemed inevitable..
