Chapter 485: Chapter 232: Thousand Miles Teleportation Chapter 485: Chapter 232: Thousand Miles Teleportation The Drone flew up to an altitude of 25,000 ters, hurtling towards Misty Island to the east at a speed of 2.5 tis the speed of sound. Since the Radar Stealth upgrade, the Drone was no longer detectable by enemy radar, and given that it was now deep into the night, there was also no need to worry about optical detection, so the Drone flew with reckless abandon, allowing Yan Fei to fully indulge his passion for flying. An hour later, Yan Fei arrived once more over the territorial waters of his own Misty Island.
This visit to Misty Island, Yan Fei did not command the Drone to take him to the largest island at the very center, but instead to one of the smaller islands on the westernmost fringe of Misty Island Sea Area. Under Yan Fei’s control, the Drone hovered two ters above sea level, and he jumped down from the Drone to stand on the island. The island wasn’t large, covering only about 5 square ters, and it was full of irregular, hard reefs, leaving Yan Fei with hardly any space to move around freely.
The Misty Island Sea Area was very peculiar; its entire underwater section appeared as if it had grown upwards from the seabed. Moreover, the seabed here consisted exclusively of hard rocks, yet had an average depth of no more than five ters and contained no life, including fishery resources. However, once the seabed extended outwards, leaving Misty Island Sea Area, the depth abruptly beca over a thousand ters. Exposed, Misty Island sat on a platform several kiloters high, surrounded by sheer cliffs, presenting a very eerie sight.
The island where Yan Fei stood was located on the western edge of the Misty Island Sea Area. Not only was it small in area, but its exposed height above sea surface was also only about one ter, nearly subrged by sea water at high tide. Two thousand ters to the west of the island was a cliff in the sea, where the water depth suddenly increased to a thousand ters. But within this 2000-ter range, the average sea depth was only about five ters.
Ten thousand ters to the north of this island lay a small island with a total area of 8 square ters. Fifteen thousand ters to the east, there was a tiny island covering only 2 square ters. Twelve thousand ters to the south lay a small reef barely breaking the sea surface. Besides these, there were no other islands within a 20-kiloter radius of this one, and the average depth of the nearby sea water also exceeded 8 ters.
Yan Fei wished to develop and construct on Misty Island, which ant he had to increase the island’s above-water territory. The difficulty of expanding land area in the ocean far from the mainland was imnse, and the amount of materials and funds required were astronomical, beyond what anyone could afford. However, after the Drone’s fourth Upgrade and the revelation of the true purpose of Universal Space, these tasks, seen as impossible by others, were no longer an issue for Yan Fei.
As long as Yan Fei made good use of the new features of Universal Space, he could create vast tracts of land here. Nevertheless, with a total area of 10,000 square kiloters, it was impossible for Yan Fei to fill in all the sea area at once; he could only opt for staged land reclamation. He chose the sea area centering on this small island he was on for the first stage of land creation.
Choosing this sea area for the first stage of land creation was because it had one trendous advantage. At a point 500 ters west of the island Yan Fei was on, the seafloor had a huge gap. This gap stretched for 5,000 ters from north to south, was 1,200 ters wide from east to west, and had a depth of 200 ters below the sea surface, with over 300 ters of reef providing natural barriers, leaving only a 500-ter-wide entrance. In other words, along the entire western side of Misty Island, this was the only spot where large ships could enter. Yan Fei could easily turn this into a Port for docking all kinds of ships, making it the transportation hub connecting Misty Island with the outside world.
Yan Fei was ambitious to create large swaths of land on Misty Island, but it distressed him that Misty Island was sinking faster. No matter how much land he reclaid here, in not too long, these lands were likely to sink below the sea surface, rendering all his efforts futile.
However, Yan Fei had no choice, as this was a location specifically pointed out by Old Man Gu, who had Predictive Ability. So Yan Fei activated the Quantum Radar to thoroughly collect data on Misty Island, then assessed the speed at which the island was sinking to determine if he could create land faster than it was subsiding.
Soon all the data on Misty Island had been entered into the database of the Auxiliary Brain. After Yan Fei saw the data clearly, he was sowhat stunned and could hardly believe his own eyes. During the ti he was away from Misty Island following the Drone’s upgrade, the visible area above the sea level of Misty Island had remained exactly the sa as before. In other words, in these ten days, there had been no further sinking. It’s worth noting that at the fastest rate of subsidence, Misty Island was sinking by more than 20 centiters each month, which ant around 7 centiters in ten days.
Yan Fei’s heart surged with excitent, but he was afraid that there had been a scanning malfunction. Hastily, he used the Auxiliary Brain to scan Misty Island again and obtained brand-new data. Yet, this brand-new data was identical to the previous set, aning Misty Island had stopped sinking for unknown reasons. The Auxiliary Brain imdiately used the collected data to extrapolate and found that if no unforeseen events occurred, this sea area would no longer experience sinking in the future.
