Chapter 294 Monsters on an Alien Planet? (4K)

After their journey through the Mechanical World Tree, Tomorrow Alliance's exploration of the Sky Island has come to an end.

However, Li Ye wasn't in a hurry to leave.

The Mechanical World Tree is equivalent to countless metal resources, and the Tomorrow Alliance must stay and collect them.

As for Loloki, Li Ye sent a submarine to take her back to the second main island.

Old Gear accompanied Loloki.

Li Ye immediately arranged for manpower to carry out a metal resource collection operation in the Mechanical World Tree, and instructed everyone to act quickly.

He knew perfectly well that this was a prime target, attracting both humans and monsters.

Sure enough, in less than two days, troops from six world-class organizations arrived.

The two sides' troops were locked in fierce fighting on the outskirts.

Both the human and monster factions are attempting to seize control of the mechanical World Tree in order to control the entire Sky Island.

After all, they possess advanced urban AI.

In a struggle for control of the Mechanical World Tree, six world-class organizations simultaneously inputted their respective city AI data into the Mechanical World Tree.

Thus, a fierce data war broke out within the mechanical world tree.

The raging flames of war instantly engulfed the Mechanical World Tree.

While the battle raged, the six world-class organizations were also racing against time to advance inside the Mechanical World Tree.

The monsters had actually defeated the third main island, captured Loloki's brother, and used the key to open the mechanical temple.

However, when they entered the temple, they found only an empty pool and an open throne.

At this moment, the Alliance of Tomorrow has long since vanished.

Li Ye naturally did not want to join the battle among the six world-class organizations.

Through a report from the city's neighborhood committee, he learned that the metal resources collected this time were enough to build three mobile suits for Tomorrow.

"Sigh, if I could monopolize the Mechanical World Tree, I could definitely create a fleet of mobile suits for land, sea, and air." He sighed.

But that's simply impossible; there's no such thing as a free lunch.

After expressing his feelings, Li Ye fell into deep thought again.

He planned to build two mobile suits first, and use the remaining metal resources to improve the army, navy, air force and urban construction.

Both of these mobile suits will be naval combat types, while the previous Tenjun 02 will be refitted into an air combat type.

With these four mobile suits, the combat power of the Tomorrow Alliance has been raised to a new level.

After making the decision, Li Ye took out his satellite phone and contacted Albert.

"Bishop Albert, how much does a level 4 city crystal cost?" he asked.

"You're already preparing to upgrade to a Level 5 mobile city?" Albert exclaimed in surprise. "That's too fast!"

“No. So far, the only promotion resource I have is a level 4 promotion blueprint,” Li Ye replied.

He planned to find out the market price of crystals in level 4 cities through Albert, and also check if the Apocalypse Church had any in stock.

Albert told him some unfortunate news.

Whether it's the Apocalypse Cult, the Titan Throne, or the Iron Brotherhood, there are no city crystals in stock at level 4 or higher.

“Once we acquire city crystals of level 4 or higher, we will gather resources to upgrade the city and convert them into combat power,” Albert replied solemnly. “Furthermore, none of the three major organizations will sell city crystals of level 4 or higher.”

Li Ye didn't seem too frustrated.

He had actually vaguely anticipated this.

Even the Apocalypse Cult, a world-class organization, only has four level 5 mobile cities.

"Speaking of which, it seems like the Tomorrow Alliance is getting closer and closer to the world's dinner table," he thought to himself.

As time went by, the Tomorrow Alliance unknowingly gained the strength to influence multiple regions, and could even contend with the same level of forces from the Monster World Organization.

Half an hour later, Li Ye convened a meeting with everyone.

"Now, our exploration of Skywalker Continent is considered complete," he concluded. "Next, we will return to Breathland Continent and attempt to advance towards the central part of the continent."

Fang Yong scratched his head and asked a question.

The Tomorrow Alliance is currently still on Sky Island, and it seems difficult to return to the mainland of Xi Rang Continent—because the entire Tomorrow Alliance doesn't have any city flight modification parts at all.

"This" Li Ye was in a dilemma for a moment.

Yang Zhengze reminded him.

"Alliance Leader, Sky Wanderer Continent is a moving continent," he said. "During the time we've been exploring it, it should still be moving. So, I think it shouldn't be over Breath Soil Continent right now, right?"

This immediately reminded Li Ye.

He immediately took out his walkie-talkie and contacted the staff at the satellite control station.

According to satellite observations, Kongyouzhou is already over Beiqiongzhou.

Beiqiongzhou is located in the northern part of Xirangzhou, at the northernmost point of the northern hemisphere of Weilan Star.

This continent is also home to the imperial monster "Heavenly Pride" Had.

"...We overlooked that point without realizing it." Li Ye smiled wryly. "But since we're here, let's make the best of it. Why don't we just manage the area in Beiqiong Continent?"

As for how the Tomorrow Alliance would leave Sky Island and arrive at Northern Sky Island, he could only use his satellite phone to contact Albert for help.

Albert helped him contact a level 5 floating island called "Triumphal Island".

Unlike Home Island, Triumph Island is a mobile aerial island specifically designed for combat by the human side.

Multiple mobile urban combat clusters from the three major human organizations are stationed on the island.

After boarding the flight to Triumph Island, Tomorrow Alliance was able to leave Sky Island five days later and easily reach the waters near North Sky Island.

“Thank you so much this time, Bishop Albert,” Li Ye said sincerely.

“Not at all, it was just a small favor,” Albert replied. “A Level 4 city alliance like yours is a very important fighting force for humanity, so naturally we need to take good care of you.”

After watching Triumph Island depart, Li Ye looked at the sea in front of him.

Just like what one sees in Arctic Ocean, this is a silent and magnificent ice and snow kingdom.

Countless ice floes of varying sizes float on the sea surface. Some are as smooth as a mirror, while others are squeezed into jagged ice mounds by ocean currents, shimmering with a cold blue light under the sun.

Not far away lies the land of the Northern Continent.

A biting wind howled across the ice, swirling up fine snowflakes that danced in the air across the icy plain. In the distance, the occasional rumble of a glacier breaking apart echoed as massive chunks of ice crashed into the sea, creating surging waves that eventually subsided.

Li Ye glanced at the system panel.

The system CD has been running for the past five days.

[6 days, 17 hours, 52 minutes, and 8 seconds until the next intelligence update]

[Number of intelligence reports: 8]

With a total of 10 days, the intelligence will undoubtedly be of high value, and legendary intelligence is also inevitable.

Looking at the ice floes blocking his way, he picked up the walkie-talkie. "Make way, Fang Yong."

As the Iron Whale activated its gravitational wave controller, visible spatial distortion ripples appeared in the air, resembling heat waves above the ice surface.

The ice began to rise strangely, forming a perfect arch hundreds of meters in diameter, with thunderous cracking sounds emanating from within.

Immediately following, under the tearing force of reverse gravity, the entire ice sheet collapsed instantly, and the several-meter-thick block of ice shattered like fragile glass. The disintegration of the ice was not a simple breakage, but rather the breaking down into regular geometric fragments under the high-frequency oscillations of gravitational waves.

The sea surface boiled violently, not from heat, but from the frantic oscillation of the gravitational field in the vertical direction. The mixture of seawater and ice fragments was thrown hundreds of meters into the air, where it was suspended in a frozen downpour due to weightlessness.

The ice barrier blocking Tomorrow Alliance was easily removed, and the mobile cities were able to reach the coast with ease.

"Alliance Leader, we've easily arrived at the Northern Continent, but what about the Qiming?" Fang Yong asked.

When the Alliance set off for Sky Island, the Qiming did not go with them, but was left behind by Liye in Xirang Island to continue collecting resources.

"Don't worry, the Qiming is an underground city, so it's generally quite safe," Li Ye replied.

He began to consider whether to build a Level 4 power engine to transmit to the Awakening in order to increase its efficiency.

As usual, Tomorrow began deploying its troops outwards.

The aircraft carrier fleet was the first to be deployed on the sea.

Following closely behind are the marines and the air force.

During these five days, as usual, Li Ye had the Engineer help him with the cold-weather modifications.

After reconnaissance, the sea area where the Tomorrow Alliance has landed is now a Level 1 area, "Gulf Zone".

Li Ye gathered his companions and began to discuss matters.

“Now that we’ve arrived on a new continent, as usual, we need to start controlling the areas and acquiring resources,” he said. “This time, I plan to control seven areas at once.”

"Seven regions?" Zhou Xing was somewhat astonished.

Li Ye nodded slowly.

As a level 4 city alliance, Tomorrow Alliance's combat strength should not be underestimated.

On the other hand, there are very few monster civilizations of level 4 or above in the wasteland.

Controlling seven areas at once sounds incredible, but it's actually possible.

Now, the reconnaissance aircraft have begun exploring other areas.

Once the situation in the area is clear, the Alliance forces can be deployed tomorrow.

The specific details of the controlled area were left to Lin Wu and the War Committee to plan.

He's now getting busy with things on Planet Wayne.

Currently, the Starship deployed on Wayne is still operating steadily.

After acquiring the Level 4 biological teleportation device, the Starship and Tomorrow were already able to teleport personnel back and forth.

Over a period of five days, the astronauts on the Stars took turns returning to the Tomorrow for rest.

According to one of the astronauts, it felt great to feel gravity again.

Li Ye spoke to Zhou Xing and the other two.

"Let's go, let's go see outer space."

The four people changed into spacesuits and were transported to the Starship, thus landing on the surface of Wayne.

What appeared before them was a rust-colored world, the surface covered with fine gravel and weathered rock fissures. They had been suspended in the air for much longer than on Weilan Star, slowly drifting down like snowflakes falling at a slower pace.

The sky took on a sickly pale yellow hue, caused by dust suspended in the atmosphere. In the distance, the outlines of layered craters carved jagged shadows across the horizon.

Li Ye slowly moved forward. The feeling of walking on an alien planet was both unfamiliar and awe-inspiring. Every step required readjustment, after all, the gravity of Wayne Star was less than half that of Weilan Star.

When walking, the body feels light and airy, as if stepping on a spring mat. If you are not careful, you will take too big a step and you must carefully control your steps to avoid losing your balance.

The soil beneath our feet was soft and dry, mixed with fine red sand and dust, and when our boots sank in, they kicked up bursts of rust-colored dust.

When he turned his head, he saw Zhou Xing and the others jumping and floating back and forth in place, all three of them looking extremely happy.

For them, this was clearly a rare and novel experience.

"So this is what it feels like to walk in space."

After returning to the Starship, Zhou Xing sighed with emotion.

Liye is considering how to further develop in space.

"Simply landing on Wayne Star is not enough; the Alliance of Tomorrow needs to truly master the ability to travel in outer space," he thought to himself.

With the ability to travel in outer space, Tomorrow Alliance will be able to travel freely in space and even land on other planets.

This undoubtedly increases the space for development several times over.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

A figure appeared in the distance; it was an automated mining vehicle dispatched by the Starship.

It has clearly completed its mining mission and is now returning home.

But everyone was shocked when they saw its appearance.

The automated mining vehicle looked like a metal skeleton gnawed by a giant beast, its shell covered with spiderweb-like dents, its wheels severely damaged, and the broken axle showing obvious signs of multiple impacts.

"What exactly is going on?" Fang Yong asked in surprise.

“There are often storms on Wayne Star, this vehicle was probably unlucky enough to be caught in one,” one of the astronauts remarked casually.

After carefully observing the appearance of the automated mining vehicle, Li Ye gently shook his head.

He saw that the center of those dents was deeply sunken, clearly indicating that they had been struck by a powerful hammer.

The automated mining vehicle has clearly been attacked!
Seeing Li Ye's expression, everyone gradually realized what was going on.

"Could it be that there are monsters on Planet Wayne?" Zhou Xing was taken aback.

“That’s possible,” Yang Zheng replied. “We’ve encountered quite a few monsters along the way. The higher the level of the monster, the more bizarre it is.”

"Who knows, there might even be a monster civilization on Planet Wayne," Fang Yong said.

Li Ye stared intently at the automated mining vehicle, his expression gradually becoming serious.

“Anyway, we need to get to the bottom of this,” he said in a low voice.

He immediately ordered the Starship to head in the direction the automated mining vehicles had returned from, in order to locate the enemy.

"My lord, we don't have any weapons on the Starship," an astronaut reminded us.

"It's alright, we can use the resource teleportation device to send the combat troops over," Li Ye replied.

But he quickly realized something and gently shook his head.

I'm afraid I haven't thought about it enough.

Fighting on other planets is not as simple as it seems, especially on Wayne, where the atmosphere and gravity are completely different from those of Weilan.
