The Dream Demon beca the Black Emperor's replacent, ruling and maintaining the Heavenly Kingdom.
This matter is basically clear.
However, the reason for the Black Emperor's assassination and how the Dream Demon ca into contact with the Black Emperor are still shrouded in mystery.
The Book-eating Demon said, "The Dream Demon is also a form of consciousness and cannot carry all the information with them; this would be too burdenso, and once they die, it could result in complete loss. So, it's possible we can only obtain a small portion of the information."
Zhou Yi reconfird, "So, what state is the Dream Demon in right now?"
"Consider it neither dead nor alive."
The Book-eating Demon explained, "These worms... aren't they called Usurper Worms? Their strength lies in this very point. They can keep the entire consciousness in a critical state, retaining only the last trace of life, while completely dismbering the consciousness into a state where it cannot recombine autonomously."
"For example, it's like an extraordinarily skilled butcher who dismbers a cow, separating bone from flesh, yet sohow keeps it hanging by its last breath, maintaining its freshness while giving the dying cow a prolonged life. Impressive, isn't it?"
Zhou Yi felt a shiver down his spine: "That's really..."
He thought for a mont, "So this dismbered Dream Demon is like a vegetative state in the consciousness domain?"
"More or less."
"But at least a vegetative state can perceive consciousness. What can it perceive?"
"Good question, but I don't know." The Book-eating Demon yawned, "I'm not a Dream Demon. I don't know what it's like to be drawn and quartered while still retaining a hint of life. I've been working overti for days in the dical departnt and need to go ho; otherwise, Xiao Chu might start to worry."
Zhou Yi nodded, "Go ahead, take a couple of days to rest."
"Just a day will do."
Chen Yin stretched lazily and twisted her neck, "Well then, Chairman, I'll head ho first."
...
There was no progress in the following days.
anwhile, the Everything Exhibition over there had completely ended, and the subsequent trade and cooperation deals were all finalized. Red Kestrel and Qian Su returned to Sand Port one after the other.
According to Red Kestrel's preliminary statistics.
This ti, the effect of Zhou Yi bringing goods was significant, directly securing orders worth 40,000 Light Seeds.
Most of the products exhibited by the company were low-priced food and daily necessities, driving such high sales figures through sheer volu.
In many areas managed by sea lords, the combined annual inco of several towns couldn't reach this amount.
In addition to that.
This ti the gains were substantial.
First, there was the cooperation with Old King to launch the Mars migration plan. The Star Axis received a total of 126 immigration orders, earning 25.2 million Light Seeds. It could be said they were the biggest winner of the Everything Exhibition.
Zhou Yi also received a bonus of 12.6 million Light Seeds.
This type of monopoly resource with survival attributes was extrely lucrative.
Red Kestrel comnted, "chanical City compiles statistics on high-inco groups every year. However, this seems to be too conservative. 200,000 Light Seeds per Mars household, and quite a significant number of buyers, based on existing information, shouldn't have such amounts of money."
"Digging deeper into this project will attract many invisible wealthy individuals, who will have rigid demands concerning safety."
Zhou Yi had a different opinion: "Continuously profiting from selling household registrations isn't practical. After all, those who can afford so many Light Seeds are in the minority. This is just a one-ti quick money-making opportunity. More sustained and stable benefits will co from mining on Mars."
The drones agreed.
Furthermore, the agreent on the rocket project with the Flying Sky Duke had been confird.
"You Ai from the Power Departnt has already connected with the Flying Sky Duke. The electric cat is matching their provided rocket model while the Recursive City Data Center is providing data simulations. However, this will take quite a while, estimated around 6 to 8 months."
"The prototype rocket structure is complex, with over 100,000 components. While replacing traditional human technology with the Light Imprint Skill has simplified it significantly, there are still 10 indispensable systems, totaling a minimum of 512 Light Imprints. Even with our current choice of Rocket Bone Fish, at least 128 Light Imprints are necessary."
Red Kestrel explained, "These combinations of Light Imprints must also connect with power facilities like the Cat House, requiring extensive testing. Otherwise, the risk of launch failure is too high."
"The matching of the Rocket Bone Fish and its connection with the Bone Horseshoe Crab will also require gradual testing."
"During this period, we will conduct simulation tests at the launch base in the Flying Sky Duke's territory. There's a wind tunnel there that can simulate relatively realistic high-altitude conditions."
Zhou Yi nodded.
After all, building a rocket, even if only optimizing and modifying, is no small project.
Aerospace reflects the culmination of industrial technological capabilities.
This seems to hold true even in the Wasteland era.
Through this exhibition, Zhou Yi recognized once more that the strategy to go out is very necessary.
The company completed initial infrastructure and independent research, cooperating and learning from various regions. This not only accelerates the monetization of products but also allows learning from advanced aspects of others.
A few more days passed.
A dirigible delivered 60 assembled Light Absorbing Monster Collectors from Mirror City to Sand Port.
This batch of custom equipnt, after simple adjustnts, was fixed at the northern part of the Dead Sea floor in Yalong Bay. In the Dead Sea environnt, the Light Absorption Monsters are more easily attracted.
Zhou Yi arrived on-site to observe the activation of the equipnt.
A flat area on the sea floor had been cleared.
The company's Bone Man engineers took out square optical instrunts from their packages one by one, completing the connections and assemblies to form a large transparent cube on the ground, filled with various lenses and spherical mirrors.
It resembled so transparent Rubik's cube.
"Collector group No. 1 installation confird complete, requesting power supply."
"Collector group No. 2 installation confird complete, requesting power supply."
"Power supply approved!"
As the power group's Bone Man pulled down the switch, 120 Floating Hearts connected the two areas were lit at the sa ti, injecting energy into two transparent cubes.
The mirrors inside the collectors imdiately lit up, turning into two massive cube-shaped light sources.
Soon, nurous Light Absorption Monsters appeared nearby, flocking to the collectors' spiral exterior walls.
Zhou Yi observed as the Light Absorption Monsters traversed between the lenses, ultimately condensing into a highly luminous light spot.
The light spot leaped within, trailing irregular light streaks, looking rather beautiful.
Jiong Hecang then flew into Collector Group No. 1.
The introduction of the condenser instantly drew in the jumping light spots.
Around Jiong Hecang, there were two smaller light spots orbiting it. They were "Satellites," also part of its abilities.
"Chairman, I need to retract my previous judgnt."
"This instrunt's intensity exceeds my expectations."
Jiong Hecang spoke excitedly, "In the Dead Sea, a large number of Light Absorption Monsters are gathering here."
"This device is generating new Light Absorption Monsters. This artificial Death Light can accelerate their birth!"
"The number is growing rapidly. I feel the energy elents are continuously increasing. So of the Light Absorption Monsters will rge with , becoming part of my energy elents. Truly... I feel closer than ever... I can beco a Light Core Body, as long as there's enough elent, I can break through!"
Zhou Yi felt gratified.
Purchasing this device was for this purpose exactly.
However, the timing of obtaining sufficient elents remained uncertain even for Jiong Hecang.
They had to wait.
During this period, it involved itself in upgrading, leaving no ti for investigations.
...
A few more days passed.
On an autumn day draped in rain, the prosthetic leg finally returned.
Zhou Yi first inspected it.
Although drenched, it showed no damage.
He grasped the handle of the prosthetic leg.
A smile spread across his face.
This ti, the prosthetic leg had found an energy block in the shape of a perfect icosahedron.
LV5 Solid Cloud Elixir!
The energy block contained additional items.
It was a spark.
Below the flickering spark was a thin, straight line, resembling a fairy stick.
The scale was tiny, less than half the length of a finger including the spark and the handle.
Zhou Yi imdiately instructed Dong to take a look inside.
The Shell Sanctuary touched this energy block, rging with it, and instantly connected with the spark, lighting it up and starting to flash.
"Mr. Zhou, this thing is a tool."
"It's called 'Thought Spark,' capable of connecting layers of Record Land and deriving restructured accumulated knowledge and experience."
Zhou Yi murmured, "You an this spark can deduce new technology from existing ones and experience?"
"That's correct."
Dong cheerfully stated, "According to the attached records and operation manual, Thought Spark is an advanced tool crucial for developing technology. It can efficiently optimize and restructure our technical knowledge."
Zhou Yi was elated.
But he recalled that Dong had previously made a blunder. Due to incomplete manuals for artificial Light Amber mining, it almost led to production accidents.
"Are you sure the operation is complete this ti? No missing parts?"
"I assure you by the immortal Dong civilization."
Dong solemnly declared, "Rest assured, this ti it's entirely complete. Such complete facilities, both the operation manual and precautions, are provided much like with Corridor Palaces and Thought Sparks."
Zhou Yi felt a bit relieved, "So what prerequisites are required? Enough Record Land?"
"Yes."
Dong elaborated, "It integrates with Record Land most effectively, but with our use of the administrator as Record Land, it can also connect, making it more convenient."
"We've already input all existing records into it, and, catalyzed by our 15 million Dong colleagues, the device now emits energy light."
"Currently, the spark has illuminated a useful path, and we plan to give it a try."
Zhou Yi, intrigued, asked, "Let know if I can assist in any way?"
"You certainly can, only you can!"
Dong paused.
"Great Zhou, we request your assistance in entering the Evil Brain to ta those worms!"
