Chapter 372: Acting at Will
To ensure there would be no reading errors, Su Ping's Avatar of Divine Transformation read very slowly.
It took a full half-day.
Only then did Su Ping understand the situation on this alien planet and his current predicament from the original owner.
The name of this alien planet is called Blue Star by them.
The ocean covers ninety percent of its surface.
Apart from a small number of islands, only one continent exists on the surface of the sea.
Ninety-nine percent of the population lives and multiplies on this continent.
Just like on Water Blue Star, the human race is the only intelligent species on this planet that has developed a technological civilization.
And because of the geographical environment.
By the time they entered the Iron Age, they had already achieved the unification of the entire human race.
At least, that is how it appeared.
"Furthermore, I can feel it."
The Kaluo Federation has been established for nearly three hundred years now; even though technological development has slowed down and there has been no major increase in productivity, its rule remains as stable as Mount Tai.
Su Ping suddenly felt someone walking toward him, and soon after, he was lifted onto a stretcher.
And they maintained this title thereafter, until they entered the Electrical Age through various splits and reunions, establishing the Kaluo Federation, which was jointly formed by great nobles, great merchants, and great scientists!
After reading the memories, Su Ping's heart stirred.
Even though he knew this path was a matter of nine deaths and one life, he still chose to sign up, and after being luckily selected and receiving some training, he was arranged to be a glorious operator on a probe ship.
"Give me a little time, and I have over a hundred ways to strengthen this physical body in an environment without Spirit Qi."
This time, the protective suit was still useless.
With the language memories of Kalosis, Su Ping could easily understand the conversations of those people.
Su Ping remained quiet, his ears twitching slightly, as he listened to the sounds around him through the reinforcement of his Divine Soul.
"There is no need for such trouble now; I can just enter the Pot Heaven once, and then use a Teleportation Talisman to descend upon the alien planet!"
He grumbled to himself about how his attempt to save trouble had instead left him somewhat passive.
"Although the sensing has a delay due to Space Turbulence, the main body can still receive the information I send out from here."
Plus, the healthy lifespan of those in power far exceeds that of similar figures on Water Blue Star.
Compared to the somewhat ignorant and slightly foolish Kalosis.
He could feel that these poor wretches who signed up to go to the Other-dimensional Space were likely not there just for simple scientific research.
The Kaluo Federation is not a feudal monarchy, and it also publicly promotes fairness and justice.
It was only for the sake of a relative's medical expenses that this person saw the advertisements for Other-dimensional Space exploration, which had been running continuously for the past few years.
He had just turned thirty this year, which is considered just reaching adulthood on their planet.
It is very clear that there is some kind of huge interest stimulating them.
Su Ping is very clear that for the sake of pure scientific research, it would be impossible to get so many forces to push for it day after day.
And they established the first unified dynasty: the Kaluo Dynasty.
Because of this, these humans also usually refer to themselves as the Kaluo Clan, or Kaluo People.
Su Ping had some terrible guesses in his heart.
"Although it is only an avatar, it is still an avatar from the Divine Transformation stage."
Commoner, Citizen, Elite, Noble.
Su Ping could glimpse the Shadow of the Abyss of the world from the details.
He was loudly complaining to the supervisor of the logistics department.
Among them, the voice of the captain from before caught Su Ping's attention.
The ship quickly moved out and entered the Spaceport.
Four distinct classes with clear responsibilities formed a relatively stable pyramid structure on this planet.
"When these people continue the exploration plan next time, perhaps the main body can conveniently send me some things."
"I am also a transcendent existence with a trace of Divine Transformation foundation."
The operator whose body Su Ping took over is named Kalosis.
"It is a pity that the main body only casually created this Divine Soul avatar of mine; if it were a proper Avatar..."
His status was that of a Commoner, and lacking the talent for learning, he failed to pass the unified examination selection, so he spent most of his life in the Underground City residential area where the sun never shines.
Yet, the internal hierarchy is equally distinct; unless one is a heaven-sent genius, it is difficult to break through these invisible shackles.
Observing Kalosis's awakened Spirit Root.
"I am still in the same universe and starry sky as the main body."
"However, it does not matter."
Out of three hundred people, more than thirty were still unconscious, and three had woken up but were clearly mentally abnormal.
The others also had various terrible aftereffects, and it could not be ruled out that, as before, there would be large-scale suicides.
The captain was cursing about how many times this had happened, why this kind of protective suit could still pass inspection, and was swearing that it could effectively slow down the strange power of the Other-dimensional Space.
The logistics supervisor did not dare to refute this furious captain who had entered the Other-dimensional Space the most times, and just kept admitting his mistakes.
The attitude of admitting mistakes was very good, but clearly, changing it was impossible.
It was not that it involved any secret actions.
It was just that the protective suit itself was merely a measure to appease people's hearts.
Anyway, except for the official Elites, the vast majority of crew members would only go to that Other-dimensional Space once.
Even if they wanted to compare, they had no way to obtain the data.
Su Ping still wanted to hear more.
But he was loaded into a transport vehicle and taken far away from this port area.
Several tens of minutes later...
Spaceport observation area.
An old man with long blue hair sat opposite Kalosis, looked over the data, and asked:
"Do you still remember your name?"
Su Ping thought for a moment, nodded, and spoke with a hint of exhaustion:
"My name is Kalosis, I am thirty years old."
After speaking, Su Ping answered the old man's subsequent questions according to his memories.
Su Ping noticed.
A flash of disappointment crossed the other party's eyes.
It seemed that the fact that the other party was not a severely mentally ill patient was a matter of regret for him.
"Alright, you go back to your room and get some good rest."
As the old man said this, he looked at the information updating on the AR Lens at the corner of his eye.
He said with some regret:
"The test report is out; your body is very healthy, and the coma was likely caused by too much stress."
"Get some good rest."
After speaking, the old man stood up and left the observation room directly.
Su Ping was not surprised by this, as after he discovered he was going to have his blood drawn.
Su Ping had quickly used his clone's divine sense power to isolate all the extraordinary power contained within his blood.
The blood that was drawn from him could be said to be even more normal than that of a normal person.
And quite obviously, this was a result the other party was not happy to see.
Su Ping returned to the rest room for patients.
It was quite nice, and it was even a single room.
Furthermore, there was a network and private AR Equipment available to go online.
Su Ping did not stand on ceremony and put it on to use it immediately.
Then he discovered that this network required identity authentication.
The network areas that could be explored differed based on one's identity.
It was equivalent to a series of large local area networks.
Kalosis was only a Commoner, and the websites he could see after putting it on added up to no more than thirty.
And most of them were related to games and audio-visual entertainment.
A small portion were serious skill-learning websites, providing introductions and learning for most basic skills one could think of.
The Kaluo Federation also provided subsidies for this area, and remote learning was free.
One could also go offline for hands-on learning, and the costs were extremely low.
It could be said that although Commoners had many restrictions and low status, as long as they were not lazy, it was not difficult to learn a skill to make a living.
Su Ping lay on the bed and began to read through the device.
Compared to Kalosis's memories, the intelligence obtained from these websites set up by the Federation allowed for a better glimpse into the foundation of this alien civilization.
At least in the short term, Su Ping discovered that the Kaluo Federation on this Blue Star was far superior to the Water Blue Star Civilization before Su Ping had left it in terms of genetic medicine.
For many diseases, they already had cures or drugs to turn them into long-term chronic illnesses.
Additionally, they had also researched enhanced humans with strength and agility far exceeding that of ordinary human physiques.
As for space technology.
It was actually not much different from Water Blue Star.
They were able to build a Spaceport and build hundred-meter-class Aerospace Spaceship.
This was all because their civilization had long been unified, and these projects had received the support of the top tier of the entire civilization, gathering the power of the whole civilization to achieve them.
Moreover, it was just building a rectangular transport ship and then leaving the mother planet to head toward a Space Anomaly Point.
The difficulty was actually not much higher than the difficulty of landing on the moon in another world.
At the same time, the old man who had questioned Kalosis returned to the research lab.
Looking at the assistant's report.
With a rather terrible expression, he dialed the communication of a certain big shot:
"The Awakening Seed you specifically found that I am responsible for here appears to be just an ordinary person; the coma and waking up was just a false alarm!"
"You were happy for nothing; that meaningless experiment can be stopped."
"On the contrary, the other few outside the plan did indeed test positive for Awakening Factor, but the quality is not high."
"The pressure for the next allocation will probably be huge."
"Is our luck that bad? Last time those research departments swore they had updated the genetic charts and selected the portion of Commoners in the gene bank most likely to awaken... It seems those guys are still unreliable."
A dissatisfied voice came from the black shadow on the other side.
To this, the old man smiled bitterly:
"It's not like you don't know, our understanding of that anomalous space is pitifully little."
"The things that bunch of guys came up with using so-called mathematical methods look quite scientific to laymen, but insiders know this is just leaving things to luck."
"Sigh!"
"However, stopping is not an option; there are some juniors who treat this kind of thing as an interesting game."
"They really enjoy this sense of control over changing the fates of small, insignificant people."
"Compared to the other things they stir up, letting them focus their energy on these matters actually saves quite a bit of trouble."
"You don't need to put any effort into paying attention to it from now on."
"I will also spread the word on my end, so that everyone doesn't have any expectations regarding this."
The black shadow sighed and whispered:
"If the quality isn't up to par, then we can only rely on quantity."
"How about increasing it to five hundred people for the next voyage?"
"Five hundred people..."
The old man hesitated for a moment, thought it over, but still nodded in agreement.
Once the number of people increases, the probability of Awakened appearing can indeed be higher.
It's just that sending so many people to the Other-dimensional Space, who knows if it will cause any terrible changes because of this?
The old man felt some worry in his heart, but he dared not speak it.
As for Su Ping, while he was reading and learning, his body was not idle either.
Multitasking was simply a matter of ease for him.
With the help of his divine sense, the body of Kalosis had become increasingly pure and flawless.
The Spirit Root had even transformed from a semi-awakened state into a fully awakened state.
This also confirmed to Su Ping that this guy possessed a Superior Grade Spiritual Root.
And he also had a Body Cultivation Spirit Body that enhanced physique and Qi-blood.
This allowed Su Ping's strength to grow even faster during his cultivation.
However, Su Ping did not intend to truly start cultivating just yet.
After all, this was still the Spaceport.
It would be safer to cultivate after returning to the planet's surface with the other expedition members.
Su Ping had also long since understood and confirmed this repeatedly.
Except for mental patients and comatose vegetative patients who would be specially cared for,
other non-official personnel would be sent back to their hometowns and used as typical examples for publicity after undergoing physical examinations.
It was just like promoting those who won the grand prize in a lottery.
It served the purpose of a publicity model, making those in the lower and middle classes realize that after signing up for the expedition, it was truly possible to return with money.
Not long after, Su Ping's main body also received the message sent by the clone and sent back instructions.
Next time, he would send over the Heaven Sword and a Storage Spirit Tool, and he told the clone to remember to check for them.
As for what the clone should do afterward,
the main body simply gave him the instruction to act as he pleased.
"Act as I please, huh."
"Then I might as well just lie flat."
"Anyway, it's just a divine sense clone, and one created at the Nascent Soul stage at that; no matter how I cultivate, it won't be of any use to the main body's cultivation level."
"It's better to rest well and wait until I figure out the situation of this planet and the Space Anomaly Point."
"Then, sit back and watch as the main body commands thousands of Immortal Boats to arrive in a grand procession, like aliens descending..."
"No, wait, as the Water Blue Star Civilization, aren't we exactly the aliens in the eyes of this Kaluo Federation?"
"Hmm, I hope that when the Kaluo Federation discovers so many alien spaceships emerging from the anomalous space region, they can remain rational!"
Having received the reply from the main body,
Su Ping felt settled in his heart and completely relaxed.
Over the next few days, after undergoing another physical examination,
they successfully left the Spaceport and entered the atmosphere of Blue Star.
They saw the boundless Dahai.
And in that instant,
Su Ping let out an 'eh' sound; he could feel that the World Consciousness of this planet seemed even more active.
It couldn't compare to the Cultivation World, but it was better than Water Blue Star.
The effect of this was that the probability of geniuses being born among the favored intelligent species would be higher.
At the same time, the probability of geniuses having dreams and then receiving hints from the Dream Realm to achieve breakthroughs in certain areas would also increase.
"Plus, with a Space Anomaly Point right next to the home planet, once technology breaks through, they can head to another Solar System to obtain massive resources... This Kalo Civilization is truly favored by the universe."
"Of course, the Water Blue Star Civilization is actually favored too; one only needs to look at the various planets in the Solar System to understand."
"The more I look, the more I feel as if they were specifically set up as rewards to be claimed once a civilization reaches different stages of development."
After landing, participating in the welcome and publicity ceremony, taking photos, and attending lectures,
finally, the returning people dispersed and went back to their respective homes.
On the car ride back, Su Ping even heard someone complaining that he should have signed up earlier.
Look at the expedition members from the previous batches; quite a few of them were scouted and turned into celebrities.
It is said that they have now become industry Elite and have earned more money than they could spend in several lifetimes.
Unlike them now, who only got a wave of publicity upon landing, and then no one paid any attention to them anymore.
And besides those complaining,
Su Ping could feel that more of the returning members actually had some degree of physical problems.
Calculating carefully, only about ten percent had no aftereffects, while the others all had hidden ailments.
It is very likely that before long, it will suddenly erupt!
