Chapter 271: Passive Solution to Affinity (6k)_3
One reason was to add to her promotion task, increasing the completion rate.
On the other hand, it was to acquire potentially new knowledge, especially like this Tier Six Lord; reaching Tier Six, regardless of the means, surely represents their strengths.
Of course, since these purposes don't require too many people, usually only one person is enough to remain in the end.
The chosen person is usually the Lord.
This has become a fixed process necessary for expanding territory of subordinate races in today's world.
Subordinate races expand, the Fungus Blanket follows in synchronization, leaving only the Lord while eliminating all others...
Originally teleported to the wilderness, she had to fly around blindly for a while to locate her own Fungus Blanket and confirm the final location, finding the way back to the territory.
Now that she found the Sea Son, there's no need to discern direction anymore.
According to the Sea Son's memory, Bai Yi immediately locked onto a direction, rapidly flashing
—this was unlike earlier, when her landing spot hadn't even been covered by Fungus Blanket, the span to the territory wasn't half a planet, but nearly a third.
Given the span of the planet, even flying at supersonic speed, it would take a few hours to fly back, and she didn't have the leisure to fly slowly.
However, Bai Yi didn't give Ju the chance to act out, as she handled the teleportation herself.
Using the speed brought by the flash, Bai Yi swiftly flew from the unknown ocean towards the direction of her territory.
In just over ten seconds, the originally blue sea began to turn deep, already expanded by the Fungus Blanket.
Feeling the familiar network connection, the expansion progress of the Fungus Blanket entered her mind; at this rate, in about a week, the Fungus Blanket would converge.
This speed seemed somewhat slow compared to the extreme speed of Fungus Blanket laying in an instance, which could be completed in a week's time, now the expansion was more than half slower.
This included several regions originally covered by the Fungus Blanket, and blooming from two points in the expeditionary army territory.
But that was because the Fungus Blanket wasn't purely expanding; much energy was used to build the first phase of the [Crimson Nest].
According to the current progress, the day the Fungus Blanket converges will mark the completion of the first phase of the [Crimson Nest]!
Yet, another project underway, the Star Ring, was advancing slowly despite being another stellar megastructure.
Like the [Crimson Nest], the Star Ring also has phased construction, with the first step requiring a satellite array interlinked and orbiting through the Starry Sky, laying the groundwork for the Star Ring.
Similar to the [Crimson Nest], it can have some function at this stage.
Functions like deep space observation and satellite communication provided by normal satellites can be offered.
But these functions have limited usefulness for Bai Yi; she is more interested in how to add a magic absorption rune onto this Star Ring to absorb more Magic Power Crystals.
In terms of absorbing magic power, though her Fungus Blanket covers the planet's surface and the planet's magic power is limited, outer space can still be tapped into.
With the magic fusion technology still not stable, no amount of Magic Power Crystal resources would be unwelcome.
And the construction of these two structures will become her core focus moving forward.
After a minute back into the territory, Bai Yi dropped off Xuanxing II, letting it upload the blueprints and synchronize the knowledge.
Once the memories were left here, she still had to attend to some matters, sending Xuanxing II into the instance several times to synchronize knowledge there too.
Ju's cross-world teleportation, for now, could only succeed on a world-level basis, but like before, the landing position was unstable, requiring further verification.
The Snake Mother Landra waiting for an upgrade within the territory also needed time accumulation.
So the following tasks became significantly simpler; the body and several Avatars each had their tasks, and the running around with Xuanxing II had to be assigned to her.
After uploading the knowledge, she descended into an instance through Divine Descent, promptly completing the process.
As her consciousness returned to the territory, messages from the Sea Son had already arrived, indicating that the Ocean Lords she needed had all been found.
In the end, there were a total of 8 Tier Five Ocean Lords, all tracked and waiting for Bai Yi to make moves.
Having shaken off the aftereffects of teleportation, Bai Yi chose to teleport directly, arriving on-site to cooperate with the Sea Son in staging the act.
The Sea Son appeared first, using its terrifying appearance and horrifying power to precisely control a ship fleet into feeling threatened.
After waiting for over ten seconds at a distance, Bai Yi flew in, pretending to abruptly come across the scene, saying "I'm here to assist" and hurrying towards the battlefield.
Meanwhile, secretly imitating the scene just now, using Life Aura to begin integrating with the ability of decay, confirming indeed the affinity failure was replicated successfully.
Since this was verified, the next step involved replicating various scenarios.
For example, simply maintaining hostility, marking people as enemies, or merely integrating a hint of decay ability without targeting anyone specifically...
A total of 8 fleets provided ample opportunity to test every possibility.
Using several different scripts to exhaust the 8 fleets, the experimental results quickly became clear.
"Great, now finally I can control this pesky passive ability!
Haha, luckily, I'm not a Starry Sky People, so I don't usually need to interact with so many outsiders; otherwise, this ability would definitely be enough to leave me worn out!
