Mobile City Travel Guide

[1 minute and 29 seconds remaining until we reach the next world]

Looking at the notification in front of him, Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

After much persuasion, this journey through the world of giants is finally coming to an end.

Overall, the experiences in this world were mostly thrilling, and the resources that were expected in the plan were not accumulated much, but the number of people increased by about two hundred.

However, figuring out how to manage and serve these 200-odd people is a significant challenge.

At this moment, the Starfire was on high alert. The mobile city was ready to be ignited. The people on the deck were in position in front of heavy machine guns and cannons, while the others took refuge in the cabins inside the city.

After all, nobody knows what the next world will be like.

Five, four, three, two, one...

As the countdown ended, everyone once again fell into the time tunnel woven with light and shadow.

When the entirely new world unfolded before his eyes, Li Xin was stunned.

"this......."

There was no land, no ocean; what lay before him was a wondrous, atmospheric planet.

Floating mountains, islands of varying sizes, massive rock formations, waterfalls cascading from above... everything, near and far, is so dreamlike and ethereal, making one feel as if they have entered a fairytale wonderland.

He glanced down instinctively, and his breath caught in his throat.

After the journey, the Starfire had nowhere to dock; it just hung there all alone high in the sky!

But miraculously, it didn't plummet; instead, it was steadily supported by something and slowly sank.

"The atmosphere of this world is amazing; it's like a gaseous ocean, capable of supporting anything. The mountains and floating islands you see are suspended because of this."

Yunzhi explained.

"Furthermore, the current altitude is unknown."

As he nodded, Li Xin removed the breathing mask from his face and took a tentative breath.

It can breathe.

"Huh, this world seems pretty good!"

On the deck, people rushed to the edge, gripping the railings and excitedly watching the scene unfold before them. Even those who had previously retreated into their cabins came out, pointing at the sight and whispering amongst themselves, thoroughly delighted.

Li Xin frowned slightly, tapped the railing lightly with his fingertips, and carefully examined the new world before him.

Compared to the others, he, as the lord, was more pragmatic, focusing on how to gather resources in the New World—after all, their food and fresh water supplies were nearly exhausted during their time at sea. Furthermore, he planned to find opportunities to mine mineral veins and oil and gas resources.

In addition, a big question mark appeared in his mind.

Does civilization even exist in this world?

To be fair, in this kind of "sky-drifting world," the original civilization should be very backward, or even nonexistent. After all, there are only floating islands and mountains here, and the ground resources are pitifully scarce. There are no continuous continents, so it would be difficult to give rise to a civilization of a certain scale.

So in other words, they should be safe this time.

Under the helmsman's control, the Starfire began to move slowly forward. Its huge sails on the deck gradually filled with airflow, and the leading edge of the hull cleaved through the thick atmosphere, like plowing open an invisible sea. The propeller at the stern turned slowly and powerfully, propelling the city forward steadily.

"It actually works!" came a pleasant surprise.

He hadn't expected that the set of maritime navigation accessories created by Giant World could still be used, and that it would fit quite well.

However, he also noticed a problem. He needed to use the production workshop to build a set of city-style wings with propellers so that the Xinghuo could adjust its direction and achieve ascent and descent.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance up and down.

A thick sea of ​​clouds stretched overhead, while billowing black mist rose beneath our feet, creating a scene reminiscent of the "sky" and "earth" of a world suspended in mid-air. The black mist was only a few hundred meters long, while the sea of ​​clouds stretched for tens of thousands of meters, appearing impossibly distant.

[Remaining time to travel to the next world: 29 days, 23 hours, 55 minutes, and 32 seconds]

After the time travel ended, the bright red and glaring notification reappeared before everyone's eyes.

"Will we be staying for a month this time?" Li Xin pondered.

This period of time is neither long nor short.

He quickly walked to the city radar in the cockpit and selected the mineral vein option.

The screen suddenly changed, revealing layers of irregularly shaped blocks of color in varying shades. Each color represented a different mineral vein, meandering through the floating islands and mountains.

Li Xin quickly selected a floating island rich in mineral resources and ordered the Starfire to set sail.

A few minutes later, the Starfire arrived and slowly landed on the island.

Under the new plan, resource collection work began.

One group of people was responsible for cutting down trees to obtain timber, another group was responsible for mining ore, and yet another group was responsible for fetching water.

"We need to establish a work incentive system," Lu Chen reminded him before leaving. "That will help motivate everyone."

Li Xin nodded.

With the rapid expansion, the Xinghuo could no longer be managed like a makeshift operation. The daily supply of food, fresh water, and living resources, the allocation of combat personnel, and the work system all needed to be planned and developed.

Centered on the Spark, the dispatched personnel transported resources back in a steady stream, like ants carrying food.

As Li Xin looked at it, his brows relaxed.

The fresh water they obtain can feed their family and meet their living needs, the wood can be used to make household goods and furniture, and the ore can be smelted into various metals—after all, their own production workshop has just been upgraded, and there are still a lot of things waiting to be made.

He plans to wait until the resources on this island are almost exhausted before continuing to mine other islands and floating peaks.

However, not long after, he made an amazing new discovery.

While mining on the island, in addition to the usual ores, the group discovered a novel type of ore.

It is crystal clear and light red in color, and feels slightly warm to the touch.

After testing, this ore was found to be not only a high-performance fuel, but also an excellent forging and smelting product.

"There are actually such wonderful things in this world?" he exclaimed in surprise.

Just then, a thunderous tremor suddenly came from below.

At that moment, the Spark was docked at the edge of the island. Li Xin looked up and saw that the black fog below was beginning to churn.

It was like a giant beast turning over in a dream, with gray-black mist waves spreading, surging, and rushing in circles, as if brewing something.

Li Xin's heart skipped a beat when he saw this scene.

"Stop mining resources for now, and have everyone evacuate back to the Starfire immediately!" he said urgently to Lu Chen.

Just a few minutes later, the black mist suddenly changed. It was as if something had pushed it from the bottom, and it began to surge upwards wildly!
