Chapter 299 Exploring the Ocean Planet (4K)

Upon hearing Tang Fang and Chang Feng's report, Li Ye was slightly taken aback.

"They actually ran away?"

"Should we continue the pursuit, Lord?" Changfeng asked.

Li Ye gently shook his head.

Had's speed is at the Mach level; mobile suits simply can't catch up.

“You did a great job this time, now come back,” he said.

Out of caution, he tracked Had's movements via satellite.

Judging from the direction this imperial monster is heading, it seems to be heading back to the Western Wilderness Continent to rest.

It's important to know that the Void Ocean is located in the Northern Hemisphere, while the Western Wilderness is located in the Southern Hemisphere, and the two are also separated by thousands of miles.

"I never imagined we could actually fight a king-level monster to a standstill," Fang Yong exclaimed in surprise. "And it seems we can even take it down."

Li Ye nodded slightly.

This battle provided the Tomorrow Alliance with invaluable experience in fighting the Emperor Monster.

If you continue to develop at level 5 for a while, you will definitely be able to hunt Emperor Monsters in the future.

The Tomorrow Alliance has thus ended its combat status.

Li Ye began to manage the interior construction of the Tomorrow.

This time, the city's population has expanded to 500,000, which is by no means a small number.

Although the urban neighborhood committees had undergone several rounds of expansion before, it still seemed somewhat difficult to manage 500,000 people all at once.

In response, members of the urban neighborhood committee put forward a suggestion.

A small city was built on each floor, and then a municipal government was established to manage the city.

The municipal government offices on each floor are under the jurisdiction of the city residents' committee.

The municipal government then sets up a series of management agencies at each level, with each level being further subdivided.

Li Ye immediately nodded in agreement.

But then again...
The municipal government building is located on the same floor.

This feels a little strange.

But after all, this is a mobile city, and its construction must take into account the actual situation.

Furthermore, the urban neighborhood committee applied to Liye to establish a series of new institutions.

Grassroots management units responsible for the daily affairs of urban communities.

The fire department is responsible for urban fire prevention, rescue, and emergency response.

The transportation bureau manages roads, public transportation, and other transportation systems.

The Water Resources Bureau is responsible for water resources management.

The Municipal Utilities Bureau is responsible for the maintenance of public buildings in the city.

The city health bureau is responsible for the overall recording and management of the health of urban residents.

One institution after another, it was dazzling to see.

Lin Wu also made a suggestion.

That is, whether or not to establish pension insurance, social security, and medical insurance in cities.

As for funds, they are naturally contributed as points.

"Are we going to start even this?" Li Ye was both amused and exasperated.

After all, it's a post-apocalyptic wasteland, so pension insurance, social security, and medical insurance seem a bit too advanced.

“My colleagues at the neighborhood committee and I all hope that residents receive the most comprehensive protection,” Lin Wu replied.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Ye nodded.

“Then you can go and develop this system,” he replied, “and then I can sign it.”

After the exchange, Li Ye began to return to his room.

This time, he once again traveled in the Lark aircraft.

This Level 4 aircraft is quite convenient to use in mobile cities.

But halfway there, he vaguely felt a tremor.

Li Ye seemed to realize something, frowned, and flew to the edge of the Tomorrow's deck.

The entire sea area where the Tomorrow Alliance is located began to tremble.

Four giant waves, hundreds of meters high, are slowly rising on the sea surface in the four directions of east, west, south, and north.

Seawater constantly changes its state of matter in mid-air, sometimes surging like a liquid, sometimes breaking like a crystal, and sometimes vaporizing directly into mist.

As the giant wave surged forward, it suddenly split into countless python-like fluid tentacles, writhing as if they were alive.

Li Ye sighed and picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Get to work, Fang Yong."

A few seconds later, the Iron Whale activated its gravitational wave controller.

Under the influence of gravity, the giant waves of the void that came from all directions were instantly "decelerated", and the wave crests remained frozen in mid-air with their overwhelming momentum.

Immediately afterwards, the giant wave began to collapse and sink.

This was only the first wave of the Void Ocean's attack; more and more giant waves were generated afterward.

However, they were all blocked by the gravitational wave controller.

Li Ye couldn't help but sigh.

He became increasingly convinced that the void ocean possessed its own will.

"I never imagined that I would be attacked by an ocean one day."

For the next few hours, the Void Ocean continued its relentless attacks on the Alliance of Tomorrow.

Fortunately, the Alliance of Tomorrow was only on the outer edge of the Void Ocean and did not go deep into it, so the withdrawal was relatively easy.

Upon returning to the Frozen Ocean, Li Ye was immediately troubled.

There aren't many level 5 areas on Weilan Star. Where should the Alliance develop next?

He simply picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Albert.

After a moment's thought, Albert gave his answer.

"Perhaps you could go to an ocean planet and start cultivating it."

"An ocean planet?" Li Ye was immediately stunned.

From Albert, he learned about the situation on an alien planet.

Cylandis, a planet whose surface is more than 99% ocean.

Like Earth, the humans of this world also refer to the galaxy where the planet Weilan is located as the "Solar System".

However, the planets in their solar systems are completely different.

Venn is the closest exoplanet to Vilan in our solar system, with a distance of 5210 million kilometers between them.

The planet Serandis is the second closest exoplanet to the planet Weilan, with a distance of 13212 million kilometers between them.

Upon hearing this, Li Ye's expression changed slightly.

That's such a long distance!
What kind of landscape does that ocean planet have? Are there any alien civilizations on it?

In an instant, he felt a strong longing for it.

However, he soon encountered a problem.

For the Tomorrow Alliance at present, simply sending all the mobile cities into outer space is a major challenge, let alone traveling 13212 million kilometers to the planet Serandis.

“Then Bishop Albert, how shall we get there?” he asked.

“You don’t need to worry about that,” Albert replied. After a long journey through space, the Apocalypse Cult’s mobile city had arrived on the planet Serandis.

It also carries a crucial Level 6 item: a Level 6 planetary teleportation device.

This device can transport any object between two planets within the solar system.

However, the resources consumed in a single round trip are enormous, equivalent to a continent-scale project.

Like many other teleportation devices, Level 6 planetary teleportation devices come in pairs.

Currently, one teleportation device is located in the Apocalypse Cult's mobile city, and the other is on Home Island. They can teleport to each other.

“According to the estimates of the Apocalypse Cult’s higher-ups, outer planets are likely extremely dangerous, and only level 5 or higher mobile cities are suitable for traveling there.” Albert hesitated, then trailed off. “So…”

Li Ye nodded slightly.

He naturally understood what Albert, or the Apocalypse Church, meant.

As a world-class organization, the Apocalypse Cult only possesses four Level 5 mobile cities.

These four Level 5 mobile cities certainly bear a heavy responsibility and cannot shirk their duties.

Therefore, Tomorrow's Alliance, as a free agent and having just been promoted to level 5, became the best choice.

This is a mutually beneficial collaboration.

The Apocalypse Cult needs the Tomorrow Alliance as its vanguard to explore the newly arrived alien planet, while the Tomorrow Alliance can gather resources on the alien planet.

Li Ye nodded in agreement.

“Then I will immediately arrange for Home Island to travel to your current sea area so that you can be sent to the planet Serandis,” Albert said.

A few hours later, Home Island arrived at the sea area where Tomorrow Alliance was located.

To facilitate the exploration of the planet Serandis, the three major human organizations each sent a group of researchers, forming a research team of over a hundred people, who were temporarily stationed on the Tomorrow.

Leading the group was none other than Veronica of the Titan Throne, the red-haired, bespectacled female professor who had previously introduced the demon civilization to Li Ye and the others.

"What preparations do we need to make before heading to Serandis, Professor Veronica?" Li Ye asked.

He appeared very cautious, after all, the atmospheric environment and terrain of other planets are completely different from those of Weilan Star.

Veronica adjusted her glasses.

“Oh, you don’t need to worry about that,” she replied. “The Apocalypse Cult’s mobile city has already conducted a preliminary survey of the planet Serandis, and the atmosphere there is suitable for humans to breathe freely.”

"That ocean planet can actually allow humans to breathe freely?" Li Ye was slightly taken aback.

This is incredibly significant!
This means that humans traveling there would not need to wear bulky oxygen equipment or build enclosed eco-pods, which would significantly reduce the difficulty and cost of colonization technology.

Using the Level 6 planetary teleportation device on Home Island, the Tomorrow Alliance arrived at the planet Serandis.

What appeared before everyone's eyes at this moment was an endless ocean.

According to preliminary reconnaissance, Tomorrow Alliance is currently located in the shallows.

The seawater here is unbelievably clear, and you can see the seabed hundreds of meters deep.

As Veronica said, the atmosphere on Serandis is indeed breathable.

On this planet covered by endless oceans, the atmosphere is like a gentle, liquid veil, enveloping the entire world.

It was daytime, and sunlight pierced through the thin clouds high in the sky, reflecting off the sea like shimmering pieces of silver. The extremely high water vapor content in the atmosphere gave the sky a dreamy blue-green hue.

The clouds were not the usual cotton-like shape, but rather presented a translucent wavy pattern.

Because of the slow overall rotation of the planet Serandis, these clouds move with extreme grace, occasionally coalescing into huge vortex-like cyclones.

"That's really good," Li Ye murmured to himself.

The mobile city of the Apocalypse Church is not far away.

It was a Level 1 mobile city with a Level 5 space configuration, named "Saint-voyage K71".

The Holy Voyager K71 was the most elite space exploration force of the Apocalypse Church, and it was also the first mobile city of the Apocalypse Church to land on the planet Wayne.

The lord of the Holy Voyager K71 arrived on the deck of the Tomorrow aboard a spaceship and exchanged brief greetings with Rino, Veronica, and the others.

"Then the task of exploring the planet Serandis is entrusted to you." He said, handing a recall device to Li Ye.

Using a level 6 planetary teleportation device, the Holy Space K71 has already established a teleportation anchor point on the planet Serandis.

Using the recall device, the Tomorrow Alliance can teleport to the location of any planetary teleportation device or teleportation anchor point.

This is extremely convenient.

The K71 of the Saint Air appeared to be very busy.

It also needs to travel to new exoplanets and continue building teleportation anchors there using planetary teleportation devices.

"What is the alien planet you are going to like?" Li Ye asked curiously.

“That’s an alien planet entirely composed of desert, a full 17823 million kilometers away from Serandis,” the lord replied. “If you start from Azure Star, it will be even farther.”

A few minutes later, the K71 of the Holy Air Fleet departed.

Li Ye also began his exploration plan.

As usual, Tomorrow began deploying its air force and carrier fleet to the outside world.

Soon, the Tomorrow Alliance discovered an iron ore vein on the seabed nearby.

The iron ore vein is grade 2 and of medium size.

The mining work was then carried out by the Engineer.

Looking at the newly mined batch of level 2 iron ore, Li Ye's expression gradually became solemn.

As previously predicted, not only Weilan Star, but the entire universe may have been supernaturally altered.

The ocean where Tomorrow Alliance is currently located is naturally a Level 2 ocean.

He couldn't help but shook his head.

This level 2 ocean is obviously not acceptable.

To develop, Tomorrow Alliance needs to find a Level 5 ocean.

A lively sound came from nearby. Li Ye turned his head and saw that it was Veronica and the others discussing the planet in front of them with great interest.

During the exploration of the planet Serandis, this research team of over a hundred people naturally stayed aboard the Tomorrow.

Given the current living conditions of the Tomorrow, it is certainly able to entertain them.

The most excited among them was an elderly professor in his seventies or eighties from the Iron Oath Brotherhood.

“Now that humanity has arrived on Serandis, we can consider colonizing it!” he said excitedly. “Building artificial islands on the ocean surface, or even floating towns and cities! Ha! I can’t wait to see that scene.”

The others nodded in agreement.

Veronica pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head.

"No, I think your idea is still a bit too rash. Plans like building artificial islands and floating cities are basically not feasible."

The old professor and everyone else were taken aback.

But after a moment's thought, they slowly nodded, their eyes showing genuine admiration.

“You are right, Veronica,” the old professor said sincerely.

Upon hearing this, a strange light appeared in Li Ye's eyes.

Why can't this be done?
A few minutes later, his doubts were answered.

The sea area where the Tomorrow Alliance was located suddenly began to sway and undulate slightly, and then the seawater slowly backed away.

When Li Ye looked in surprise, he saw a faint, giant black shadow appearing in the far distance.

"Is this... a mountain range on land?" He was slightly taken aback.

Although over 99% of the planet Serandis is ocean, it still has some land.

Li Ye couldn't help but scratch his head.

He never expected to be so lucky; he discovered land almost as soon as he landed on the planet Serandis and hadn't even moved much.

He quickly realized that it was not a mountain range.
