Chapter 235: Kepler Sightings

The techniques of mental maneuvering are even more bizarre and dangerous.

"The Wu Family is truly impressive; it seems they have practiced," Jeris said with a smile.

"Is it really okay to go on like this? I see that everyone's condition is very poor," Tan Ziyuan said, very worried. She understood her teammates too well; even during their usual high-gravity training, they hadn't been like this, completely devoid of composure, which meant they had already reached the most dangerous point.

Jeris glanced at Tan Ziyuan, blinked, but said nothing.

The Giant Insect was still tirelessly outputting crazily, roaring round after round at the six people in front of it.

Long Danni frowned, "How can we stop it?"

"Ah, stop?" Jeris was stunned for a moment.

"Stop it immediately. They are all at their breaking point. Once their mental state collapses, it will cause irreversible sequelae. Li Hao is playing with fire. Stop it immediately, that is an order!" Long Danni said in a deep voice.

Jeris shrugged, "Sorry, Principal Long, I can't stop it, and I can't interrupt it either. A sudden interference at this moment is what would cause an accident."

"Jeris, I am not joking with you!" Long Danni opened her Skycom, "Li Hao is too arrogant. He cannot demand that everyone be like him. If something goes wrong, none of you can bear this responsibility."

Jeris glanced at Long Danni, a curve appearing at the corner of his mouth. Meeting in person is not as good as hearing the reputation; Long Danni is nothing more than this. Sitting in a comfortable position for too long, her vision and judgment are both declining.

"Principal Long, it is not yet time. You are an Elite, but you are an Elite who emerged from ordinary people. Perhaps your current power is strong, but it is different from the path of a genius. Our Apocalypse path emphasizes the constant exploration of the limits of power and ability; this is nothing," Jeris shrugged innocently, "And it cannot be stopped now."

A trace of anger flashed in Long Danni's eyes; she was clearly very dissatisfied with Jeris, but the other party was from the Academy and had no affiliation, so she could only suppress her temper, "Jeris, don't over-exaggerate. When was that even a thing? Apocalypse is the wisdom of the Alliance, and the individual is insignificant. He is just a student from Tianjing; he represents nothing and can bear nothing!"

Jeris twisted the corner of his mouth, revealing a trace of mockery, "Heh, heh, is that so? Then you are truly ill-informed. In the Alliance's Apocalypse Street, go ask around who the boss is. A mere Tianjing really doesn't count for much!"

"Oh? Could it be that he can compare to Chao Qinglong?" Long Danni said with a hint of contempt.

"Hmph, ignorant and ill-informed, Second Brother..." Jeris could not tolerate others insulting or misunderstanding Second Brother, especially someone around him like Long Danni.

But Jeris stopped abruptly, staring at Long Danni in a daze, "Principal Long, are you fishing for information from me?!! That is too unkind!!!"

Long Danni looked at Jeris very innocently, "Ah, did I?"

Jeris was speechless. Damn, someone with this status actually plays these kinds of tricks. It really is easy to fall for it if you're not careful.

Long Danni smiled, "This kid is very lazy. I always need to know what he can do before I can provide support."

Jeris rolled his eyes. He considered himself to have a super-high IQ and often disguised himself to play others, but he had misjudged this time. He was practically a moron. Someone like Long Danni, who returned from the battlefield and had faced Giant Insects, either wouldn't have agreed at all, or if she did, she would certainly have a plan. Why would she need to ask? It was too stupid; he had actually been played.

"Jeris, tell me, don't be so stingy. Tianjing is indeed in difficulty right now; those who are capable should do more," Long Danni smiled.

Jeris hurriedly put some distance between himself and Long Danni, "Don't, I don't know anything."

Even without a gag order, if the Hunters of that year had any experience or lessons, it was definitely: don't believe that those who are capable should do more.

Tan Ziyuan and Lu Lingxiao looked at each other. Both girls also knew that Li Hao was extraordinary. After all, people like Aofeidita were not ordinary people. They were not ordinary now, and in the future, they would pull away an even greater gap from them. They were all existences who would enter the highest echelons of humanity, yet many things still made them feel unbelievable.

What exactly had Li Hao done?

What is Apocalypse? They had checked, but there wasn't a single word of information.

Let alone them, even with Long Danni's clearance, there was no intelligence to be found.

Tan Ziyuan looked at Li Hao in the arena. What... exactly had he done to make these unruly geniuses so in awe, to the point that even time could not erase it?

Li Hao didn't feel much, but the other five were hovering on the edge of their limits. Huo Ying's body was infinitely tense, gritting his teeth. He refused to retreat, but his Mental Power was the worst. It was like a frog being boiled in warm water; once he reached his limit, his mind would collapse directly.

Just as they were about to be unable to hold on, suddenly, all the pressure vanished.

Huo Ying collapsed limply to the ground, followed by Zhou Naiyi and Ma Long. Wuzang was also bent over, gasping for air, his body trembling uncontrollably. After a few seconds, Zuo Xiaotang finally regained his senses, and then... sat down on the ground with a thud.

It was like taking a huge gasp of air after drowning; his eyeballs were almost popping out.

In the observation room, Long Danni's pupils contracted violently. She had faced Giant Insects, whether piloting a Mecha or in a state where the Mecha was damaged.

Wuzang and the others had no energy to pay attention to their surroundings, but Long Danni saw it clearly. The moment Li Hao walked in front of everyone and blocked the Giant Insect, the pressure on everyone vanished completely.

And Li Hao... was actually standing with his back to the Giant Insect. That Giant Insect, which had been crazily baring its fangs and brandishing its claws just a moment ago, seemed tired of calling out. It growled low, ready to strike, but did not continue to roar.

Those who don't understand don't get it, but Long Danni felt a deep sense of shock.

Jeris did not speak, his glasses tapping several times on the side. In his field of vision, everyone's physical data was presented in 3D, and at this moment, Li Hao had set up a golden wall between them and the Giant Insect.

The beautiful Kepler Planet, Ontario Human Base 5.

On Kepler Planet, humans have established a total of five long-term bases. The nature of each base is quite different. The Four Great Federations each own one, while Base 5 belongs to the Solar System Alliance Council. The other four bases have very high security, while the Ontario base is relatively more relaxed. In the early days, it even hosted some business delegations. Of course, now only those with special passes can arrive.

This business delegation also included many big-name figures from various fields: some scientific researchers, some members of major commercial organizations. This visit was also to inspect subsequent investments and evaluate the situation on Kepler. Kepler is undoubtedly a treasure trove, but how to invest, where to invest, the timing of the investment, etc., all require comprehensive inspection.

A Youyou had been thinking for a long time about drawing inspiration from Kepler for a new song. What she saw in the videos was somewhat ethereal. A Youyou had also tried several angles to compose music and lyrics, but the feeling was lacking a lot. This was also the reason why A Youyou wanted to come in person.

Everyone who arrives at the base is assigned a safety bracelet, which has three safety levels. Inside the base, it is blue, safe. Within a five-kilometer radius of the base, it is orange, with a certain amount of danger. Once far from the base, it turns red, and one may be attacked by Giant Insects at any time.

The base's facilities are mainly focused on safety, and the overall style is fine. After encountering the Giant Insects, the Alliance also adjusted its strategy, adopting a steady and solid approach. Before figuring out the situation with the Giant Insects, they did not intend to advance rashly. Without blind expansion, resources were still keeping up.

Su Yu was very busy. As a professional manager, she was not here to accompany anyone for fun. She was also carrying the family's inspection mission. In fact, A Youyou was just an afterthought. Any investment here is measured in "trillions," but the returns are quite harsh.

Precisely because of the special nature of Kepler, the Alliance is also using Kepler to fish. The requirements for capital are particularly strict, and they have grasped the psychology of everyone wanting to enter early. This made Su Yu feel that there was no short-term value, and in the long term, the risk was extremely high. One careless move and it would be working for someone else's benefit. In the end, whether to invest or not still requires careful consideration.

At the same time, Su Yu personally wanted to try her luck to see if she could get an Ocean Heart. In fact, the collection of Ocean Hearts has always existed, and they have been discovered one after another, but they are all directly confiscated by the Alliance. Only if one is particularly lucky will they flow out. She had been here for three days and had seen them, but they were not traded externally at all.

Even if it is just a small piece embedded in jewelry, it would become the most dazzling star at a banquet. At Su Yu's status, especially as an exquisite woman, these are the things she cares about. In this regard, she is even more intense than A Youyou.

For these three days, A Youyou had been inside the base.

Activities; the guidance facilities here are very convenient. When A Youyou was eating in the restaurant, she successfully hooked up with a little cutie. In the entire base, they were the only two of similar age, and they hit it off immediately.

"A Youyou, the tree in front of you is a giant fern. It is already extinct on Earth. They can only survive in pure air. They appeared in the high-altitude regions of the Asian continent several hundred years ago. These caterpillar-like things are their seeds, very, very beautiful. They can be traced back to the dinosaur era," Polina said happily. Her slightly chubby face was filled with joy; she hadn't seen anyone her age for a long time.

Polina is the "pet" of Base 5.

A Youyou was also shocked by the otherworldly beauty of the ferns; there was a feeling of crossing time and space. The girl in front of her was about her age but was already a top biologist, belonging to the Alliance-level genius members, "I have a doubt, isn't Kepler Silicon-based life? How can Carbon-based plants appear?"

"Oh, I forgot, these currently still belong to undisclosed data. The areas we discovered early on were indeed all Silicon-based life, but Base 2 was the first to discover a Carbon-based area, and the scale is very large. Both animals and plants are Carbon-based, with rich species. What's even more magical is that we discovered a certain similarity to Earth. We are currently conducting further research. I don't know if it contains some kind of law of cosmic life." Polina was a bit of a chatterbox. Her white lab coat couldn't completely cover her somewhat exaggerated, full chest. A youthful face, a heavy figure, but looking at Polina's appearance, it seemed this was a big annoyance, causing her to not even dare to walk with her head held high, "A Youyou, how do you keep your figure? Why are you so thin?"

"You aren't fat either."

Polina revealed an uncontrollable envy, her little eyes a bit resentful, "I have a body type that gains weight easily. I usually eat very little, and I'm busy most of the time, but I gain weight even from drinking water."

"You have all of it in the right places!" A Youyou felt a little bit of envy.
