Chapter 772: The Younger Witch
After a few days, Mi Guo has already built a small Base on the Moon covering several acres.
In total three crewed spacecraft were launched, delivering twenty‑three astronauts.
And they are all Enhancers.
From their skillful operation of machines and construction of the camp, it's clear they have all undergone a period of professional training.
After the camp is built, the next step is to receive the drilling equipment.
The coordinates have already been fixed.
It's still that Māo ér who told the Americans the location.
The Witch Tribe "Consciousness Stream" members who transferred their consciousness onto the cat also lack permission to activate the Base.
For a lifeform like it, the Witch Tribe's restrictions are still relatively strict.
"They actually don't guard the Base!?"
Not far from the Base, Lin Chang'e said with a surprised expression.
Song Jiaren said, "They're on the Moon, thinking only their own group is there, so of course they won't be on guard!"
Lin Shiyi said, "Mainly it's a manpower shortage; before the drilling tools arrive, they need to conduct surveying, sampling and other tasks…"
After Lin Shiyi finished explaining, Lin Baobao's eyes flicked, "Could this be a trap?"
Lin Shiyi frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "The probability is low, because they don't know about the Jasmine vessel."
"But the Jasmine vessel is already close to being exposed!"
Lin Baobao said.
Lin Shiyi said, "Let's not overthink; these people aren't Lin Chang'e's opponents anyway. Since we have the power to crush them, there's no need to waste time guessing."
At this moment, Lin Shiyi actually agreed with Lin Chang'e's style.
As soon as the words finished, Lin Chang'e chuckled, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's do it!"
So ten little fellows in spacesuits hopped toward the Base the Americans had just built.
The camp is mainly constructed of lightweight metal and has radiation‑shielding capability.
It doesn't even have a door.
After approaching the Base, Lin Shiyi lifted his hand.
Lin Chang'e, Song Jiaren, Lin Baobao and the others behind him immediately dropped to the ground.
Lin Shiyi frowned and said, "There are surveillance cameras; we can't get filmed."
Saying that, he raised his wrist and activated the portable interference device.
……
At the same time, Lin Feng, Qi Yao, Zheng Enhui, Liu Huixi, and Qian Miaomiao had already entered the genuine Witch Tribe Moon Base.
"I knew it, I knew you knew, you must know the real main Base!"
From the box Qi Yao was carrying, a woman's voice came out.
After Māo ér was caught by Da Hei, this Witch Tribe "Consciousness Stream" could only be confined obediently through the Witch Tribe communication channel set up by Lin Feng.
The silver‑white metal box Qi Yao was carrying is not only a toolbox but also an advanced computer with spectral detection and analysis functions.
Lin Feng laughed, "If you had chosen to cooperate with me, it wouldn't be like this; you actually dare to oppose me!"
Māo ér said honestly, "I've analyzed it; you are not a subordinate. You already possess too many things, and your power is sufficiently great.
And I need obedient humans, like the Americans; they are greedier than you. Give them a bit of lagging technology, reveal some Witch Tribe secrets, and they will worship me as a deity.
If it weren't for you, in the future all humanity would be ruled by me, and I would use you humans to restore the brilliance of tens of thousands of years ago!
"What you're saying contains a lot of information!"
Lin Feng said with a smile.
At this moment five people in spacesuits walked through the pitch‑black tunnel.
The tunnel is perfectly circular, as if drilled out directly with a boring machine.
It slopes downward at a fifteen‑degree angle.
The entrance is a valley between the summit of a Ring Mountain.
Lin Feng used the Witch Tribe Bracelet to easily open the Base entrance's large gate.
Seeing a seemingly solid boulder split apart, revealing a passage, Lin Feng was rather surprised.
If it hadn't opened automatically, even with his keen eyes it would have been hard to notice that the boulder was actually a door.
Māo ér perhaps knows its upcoming fate; having not spoken to anyone for a long time, even if Lin Feng is an enemy, it is willing to keep communicating with him.
Māo ér said, "If it weren't for our help, you humans on Earth would probably still be in the Stone Age!"
Lin Feng said lightly, "But without your interference, we would still develop independent technology, and it would be even more advanced."
Not to mention, meridian theory, Traditional Chinese Medicine, the I‑Ching and Bagua, etc., were all taught to us humans by you.
These techniques may develop slowly, but they are more advanced than yours.
Perhaps, before you arrived, there was another group of alien remnants like you, and you even fought wars with them.
You are extremely fearful of them, and even on this Bracelet I hold, there is no related record.
"Oh my! You're so clever, how did you guess that?"
Māo ér exclaimed in surprise, "What you guessed is close to the truth. Don't think our Witch Tribe's power is just brute; in your Earthling terms, it's a technological civilization."
And your human ancestors… belonged to a cultivation civilization!
"It's getting more and more abstruse, even bringing cultivation into it."
Qian Miaomiao said.
Māo ér laughed, "Little girl, the Universe is so vast, unimaginably large; many top‑level civilizations were born billions of years ago."
Over such a long span, they haven't explored the entire Universe; in a world so huge, anything can exist.
Technological civilization primarily studies tools and uses tools.
By manufacturing advanced tools, it makes its own race powerful.
In contrast, cultivation civilization actually focuses on studying oneself, specializing in the spiritual body, just like I am now…
Before Māo ér could finish, Lin Feng said lightly, "Let's not talk about that; change the subject!"
Lin Feng felt that what Māo ér said was actually excerpted from online novels; that creature had read a large amount of internet data to understand modern humans.
Fortunately, Lin Feng had long been wary of the internet, keeping his own and his family's information from appearing online as much as possible.
If anyone tries to use the internet to attack Lin Feng and his family, or expose him, then they will be personally annihilated!
In the past two years, Liu Huixi's subordinates, as well as Zhao Xiaoyang, Liu Erwa and the others, have caused many "accidental" incidents.
Otherwise, Māo ér would understand me even more.
The more the enemy knows you, the more dangerous you become.
"Fine, if you don't want to hear it I won't say it. Anyway I think it's rather mystic; this distinction isn't really rigorous…"
Māo ér sincerely admitted the mistake.
"Tell me the true former identity of the younger witch."
Lin Feng asked.
Lin Feng always believed that the younger witch must have appeared in history.
Of course, later she certainly vanished from the official history, yet she remains in legend.
Māo ér said, "Sorry, the information is incomplete; I cannot provide an accurate answer."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll tell you some of her information!"
Lin Feng recounted to Māo ér—from discovering that underground space on the steppe to the circumstances when the younger witch appeared.
He even described in detail the seal on that coffin.
After Lin Feng finished, Māo ér remained silent for a long time.
"Speak!"
Qian Miaomiao, having lost patience, frowned and said.
Māo ér said, "In myth and legend… Jiǔtiān Xuánnǚ. In the past she liked to fight, and you actually had a daughter with her! Your daughter must love fighting and is especially ferocious."
Of course, she isn't as powerful as the legends claim—no soaring to heaven or diving into earth; none of us in the Witch Tribe have attained such abilities.
"You humans! Your imagination is truly amazing!"
