Chapter 489: Book of Civilization, Technological Background
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Master Ji!”
When Ji Ye arrived at the altar at the Dragon City settlent core with Zhao Yun and Li Guang, most of the managent personnel were already there. A lot of old and new players also stood below the altar and pointed curiously at the sky.
Above the altar, two five-clawed yellow dragons had grown over 3m long. Between them suspended a yellow semi-transparent “dragon ball” that was filled with fog.
It was the transford settlent core of the Dense Fog race.
Theoretically, Dragon City only needed to choose a spot and let the twin dragons give so of their power of providence to the Dense Fog settlent core to activate it. That way, they could set up a sub-settlent.
“Let’s get started!”
Ji Ye nodded at the two dragons.
“Roar!”
Imdiately, one of the dragons opened its mouth and let out a resonant sound. It then swallowed the “Dragon Ball”.
The dragon then grew fainter, turning into sothing that looked like a mist.
In the end, it beca a “misty dragon” that was a size smaller than the other one, and the golden light it spat out also turned into a floating mist.
Ji Ye sensed the change in its attribute.
[Dream Dragon]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-1]
[Description: It is the core of the sub-settlent of Dragon City. The power of providence it spits out could bring the creatures of the settlent into dreams.]
Because nearly 50% of the power of providence had been injected into the “dragon ball”, the dream settlent wasn’t a simple sub-settlent. It was more like a twin settlent that was parallel to the chief settlent.
That was a decision made by the managent team after so discussion.
Since Dragon City didn’t have many mbers who could fight in dreams right now, to ensure the safety of the settlent core, they decided to make it reach the Transcendent level directly.
That way, the Dream Dragon would have enough power to protect itself.
Moreover, they would be able to suppress offerings in dreams to summon Transcendent heroes.
However, before they summoned any heroes, Ji Ye still had one thing to do.
Hum!
Ji Ye stood below the Dream Dragon as an object that was constantly changing appeared in his palm. Its bright yellow color was similar to that of the power of providence. It changed from a piece of beast bone or a string of bamboo sticks to a piece of paper or a hard disc...
[Book of Civilization (small)]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Superior]
[Description: Most races would choose to record their history and culture in paintings or words. The attribute of this Book of Civilization is Ga/War. It can be activated by the power of providence and fused into the settlent core. That way, it can moderately extend the range of heroes that the settlent can summon.]
Back then, Dragon City obtained five Books of Civilization in the Battlefield of Providence. The only dium History/Dynasty Book of Civilization was dropped by the Yuan Emperor, and they had used it on the settlent core of Dragon City, gaining the Han Dynasty background.
The other four had been kept in their vault ever since.
This Book of Civilization was a Superior one, indicating that it had a relatively famous background compared to the books of the sa type, and the Ga/War attribute ant that it was about a war-related ga.
Because it was only a small Book of Civilization, it wouldn’t involve too many characters or objects.
It could be a small-scale independent ga or a part of a large-scale one.
They had chosen this one instead of another Perfect one because...
“Dragon City itself is of an Ancient/Cultivation background, so there’s no need to create a twin settlent of similar background. For future developnt, we’d better add a technological background, which will be a good complent to Dragon City.”
Elder Zhou and Elder ng made the suggestion in the eting about the selection of the background.
“Sure!”
After so consideration, Ji Ye agreed.
Technology and cultivation wouldn’t clash with each other. In fact, they could complent each other quite well.
This was because technological weapons could give Extraordinary power to ordinary people through firearms, chanical armor, and ard vehicles.
Cultivation, on the other hand, would make one exert the power of technological weapons to a higher extent. For instance, Lu Zhishen was driving the Gatling Bodhisattva during the war against the yakshas.
Moreover, Dragon City had actually been following the technological path all along.
It was just that the technology level on Earth wasn’t advanced enough, and Transcendent-level technologies like nuclear weapons were quite rare.
Because of that, in order to follow the path of both “history” and “technology”, they definitely needed to add so technological background to the settlent.
However, the sa thing happened just like when they made “requirents” during summons, which was that this addition wouldn’t be very accurate.
Strictly speaking, this War/Ga Book of Civilization couldn’t definitely give them a technological background.
After all, war gas weren’t limited to Call of Duty and Starcraft. There were also gas like Mount & Blade and Age of Empire.
Therefore, when the Dream Dragon breathed yellow mist onto the Book of Civilization, many people at the managent level felt a little uneasy.
Hum!
When the yellow mist hit the Book of Civilization, the constantly changing book imdiately beca a reflective disc.
It then spun quickly in the air and projected so CG images in the sky above Dragon City.
Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop...
People of Dragon City first saw a gun.
A soldier wearing a biohazard mask was firing a machine gun. Smoke rose out of the gun barrel, and shell cases flew everywhere.
“A gun! It’s a technological background!”
When a mber of the managent team saw this, he smiled.
However, Ji Ye and so core players frowned.
“That looks like quite an old-fashioned gun...”
Yes, the image showed a soldier and a gun, which was in a broader sense pointing to a technological background.
But he wore a rubber gas mask, and although the brown military coat he wore was thick, it was crudely made. There was a chain of cartridges on his back.
More importantly, the machine gun in his hand had a red wooden butt with a black drum magazine like a tray. Overall, it looked quite outdated.
“It’s a PPSh-41 assault rifle. It’s from the WWII period!” Li Qing said affirmatively.
As a retired scout, he knew most of the guns made by Chidragon and even the rest of the countries in the world.
The assault rifle with a drum magazine wasn’t made by Chidragon but by its next-door neighbor, Urssia. During WWIII, Chidragon assisted Urssia in fighting against Aagle, and at that ti, Urssia provided Chidragon with a lot of assault rifles in this style.
After that, Urssia army switched to AK machine guns, and this type of assault rifle fell into disuse after WWIII.
“So, the background is WWIII...”
Li Qing’s words disappointed quite a few people.
If the soldier had been using an AK-47, they would feel more hopeful.
After all, the AK-47 was a classic and was still widely used now.
It could indicate so sort of post-apocalyptic background that could produce high-tech objects after an upgrade.
But this crudely equipped soldier would never have the Transcendent technology that they were hoping for.
