Chapter 900: Spark World! A Futuristic Sci-Fi Style!

The inverted-triangle black fighter jet streaked at full speed through the sky.

It soon entered the Antarctic range, with less than ten kilometers left to the entrance of the Spark World.

Through the fighter jet's simulation of the external environment, Xu Jingming could see the white expanse of the ice-and-snow world below.

Every now and then he could spot one or two fierce beasts walking and hunting among the glaciers; compared to ordinary wilderness zones, the number of fierce beasts living on the ice plains was far fewer.

The fighter jet pressed on rapidly, and when only five kilometers remained to the destination, the surrounding environment began to change.

Thin black spatial rifts appeared one after another in the sky, and through those cracks one could sense an extremely dangerous spatial energy.

At the same time, beneath the glaciers, modernized buildings dozens of meters tall had somehow appeared.

Between the buildings, flat roads had already been carved out, with scattered human ability-users walking along them.

As the distance to the destination shortened, the traces of human activity grew ever more obvious.

Xu Jingming even spotted a dedicated aviation port, with quite a few fighter jets flying over and landing on it.

"They built this side of Antarctica this fast?"

Xu Jingming was somewhat surprised.

From the announcement of the Spark World news until now, only three or four hours had passed.

Even with ability-users helping, it shouldn't have been built this quickly.

This was already the scale of a small city.

"The Spark World already coordinated with the United Nations in advance; this area was probably under construction long before the news was announced."

Su Qingli said with a smile.

Xu Jingming swept his gaze and, sure enough, spotted the United Nations emblem on quite a few of the buildings.

"True — without the United Nations' approval, the Spark World wouldn't have been able to announce this news either."

Xu Jingming nodded.

The fighter jet continued forward, and he soon saw the transmission channel that led into the Spark World.

This transmission channel was fully fifty to sixty meters tall and thirty to forty meters wide, standing there like a colossal door.

At that moment, quite a few ability-users below were stepping into the spatial gate with excited faces.

"S-rank, there's an incoming call invitation from Meng Yu."

Eva's voice rang out inside the cabin.

"Connect it." Xu Jingming nodded.

As early as an hour ago, Meng Yu had already reached out, saying she would receive them upon entering the Spark World.

Swoosh—

A flash of light, and Meng Yu's familiar holographic projection appeared inside the cabin; she gave a slight bow and said respectfully:

"Senior Xu, just follow my guidance into the spatial channel."

"Oh? No need to land at the aviation port?"

"That's right, I'm right beside you."

A small fighter jet appeared not far ahead.

Unlike Xu Jingming's Obsidian-class fighter jet, this one was extremely small in size, its entire body a fiery red.

Around the transmission channel there had originally been ability-user squads on guard, and even wind-element ability-users soaring in the sky to prevent anyone from forcing their way into the transmission channel.

When this small crimson fighter jet flew past, the ability-users patrolling on guard immediately and respectfully parted.

Whoosh—

Led by the small crimson fighter jet, the Obsidian-class fighter jet passed through a layer of water-film-like membrane and entered the transmission channel.

The cabin light dimmed, then suddenly blazed bright.

Xu Jingming and the others instinctively looked up and couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

What greeted their eyes was a modernized city.

In the distance stood skyscrapers piercing the clouds, along with streamlined massive buildings.

The outer walls of the buildings were not bricks, but rather light modules.

Countless light modules pieced together, and the dazzling radiance they emitted did not give one the feeling of light pollution.

Instead, there was a sense of being in a sci-fi future world.

Above the buildings, moreover, were enormous floating islands.

Large numbers of manned flying vehicles shuttled back and forth between the ground and the floating islands, looking like black dots from afar.

"This......"

Xu Jingming could already count himself as someone who had seen grand spectacles.

But seeing this scene all at once, he was still somewhat shocked.

Good lord!

The technological development of the Second Civilization Era had already reached this level?

A completely different tier from the Blue Star World!

Beside him, the fair and pretty faces of Su Qingli and Hearing Ling Shuang likewise faintly showed a trace of wonder.

Guided by the crimson fighter jet, the Obsidian-class fighter jet quickly landed on the ground.

"Greetings, strong ones entering the Spark World. Please cooperate with us for identity registration."

The moment Xu Jingming, Su Qingli, and Hearing Ling Shuang stepped down from the fighter jet, a staff member who had been waiting nearby walked up.

This person wore a black combat suit, and a beam of virtual light projected from the comms watch on his wrist, seemingly about to perform some scan.

"You can step aside, let me handle this."

Before Xu Jingming could speak, Meng Yu, who had likewise stepped down from her fighter jet, hurriedly came forward to greet them.

"Yes, my lord."

The staff member seemed to recognize Meng Yu. After offering a salute, they respectfully withdrew.

"Senior Xu, the Void-Breaking Tower is roughly five hundred-plus kilometers from here. Shall I take you there now?"

Meng Yu turned and asked Xu Jingming respectfully.

Although she had long known the identities of Su Qingli and Hearing Ling Shuang.

When her gaze swept over the two women, she still could not help feeling dazzled.

Such figures and looks were extremely rare even in this Spark World.

"Good." Xu Jingming nodded, not refusing.

"The total area of Spark World is roughly around 4.2 million square kilometers.

Although the area is not small, half of it is resource zones.

These zones are used to develop industry and forestry, providing all kinds of living resources.

The remaining half is where we live year-round.

This area is also what we call the 'Metropolitan Circle.' The Metropolitan Circle is divided into ten ring-shaped zones.

The zone we are currently in is within the Fifth Ring. The Void-Breaking Tower is located within the First Ring..."

Xu Jingming and the others sat inside a craft shaped like a bullet head.

Although the craft hurtled forward at twice the speed of sound, the scenery outside the window did not blur because of it.

The craft was unmanned. Meng Yu sat across from Xu Jingming and the others, continuously introducing some basic conditions of Spark World.

"Your Spark World only lifted its spatial blockade a hundred years ago. Why does it feel like your technological development is far ahead of ours?"

Watching the youth below gliding at low altitude on a flight board, Xu Jingming could not help asking in puzzlement.

"The Spark Plan not only preserved ability users with good talent like us, it also left behind a large number of scientists.

Our technology was already advanced. With these scientists around, a hundred years is more than enough to open a huge gap between us and you."

Meng Yu smiled slightly and explained, "Moreover, the treatment for these scientists is quite good — at the highest, they can move into zones within the Second Ring."
