Master of Kaidan-Chapter 482 Can It Be More Outrageous?
Chapter 482: Chapter 482 Can It Be More Outrageous?
"Uh, although I still have no clues, I think I kind of know what this is..."
When Feng Xue descended in front of the Heaven Piercing Horn, he suddenly got a bit confused. From a distance, this thing looked like a pair of dragon horns, but up close...
Isn’t this freaking thing an Electromagnetic Railgun?
"So, are you saying this is a gigantic Submarine Mother?" Feng Xue felt something was off, but he still went closer, only to be silenced when he arrived at the base of the Heaven Piercing Horn.
Because here, there was a...
"Hmm, this thing looks like a spaceship, right?"
Though Feng Xue wanted to stick to his initial guess, and claim that this thing, which looked like a giant egg over ten meters in diameter, was a projectile, the problem was...
Who has a door on their projectile!
"So, are you saying there are actually people in this broken place?"
Feng Xue moved to the hatch. While the steering wheel-like mechanism seemed not too hard to open, to avoid forcefully opening it which could lead to water flooding in and thus turning a great discovery into a minor one, he decided to first use "make the most of everything"—well, actually, it was for identification—
Name: Illusionary Object·KDG-33 Data Exchange Pod
Elements: [Spacecraft]
Description: A data exchange pod specially made for the Dragon Gate Accelerator, capable of accelerating to sub-light speed to reach the Heavenly Court Space Station, storing hydrological data of the Primordial Continent East District seabed and capable of carrying up to three passengers.
Note: Although the load has been minimized, consider your physical tolerance if you plan to ride this thing.
...
"Man, I’m quite curious about what the Heavenly Court is all about now."
Feng Xue linked with Ao Bing’s onboard computer and sent a signal to Dragon Gate Base to open the exchange pod. As the pod door slowly opened, Feng Xue crawled into the decompression chamber and was then greeted by an array of high-tech operations that, fundamentally, weren’t much different from entering and exiting a deep-sea manned exploration vehicle.
The one thing that reassured Feng Xue was that, once inside the cabin, he finally saw items made for human use, and as he sat down at the control platform, his expression grew animated... freeweɓnovel~cѳm
Because he finally knew why he hadn’t been able to find the Dragon King...
The entire Dragon Gate Base was the Dragon King!
According to the data in the exchange pod, the foundation of the entire Dragon Gate Base was the "Primordial East District Weather Control Device." The Heavenly Court would analyze the hydrological state of the Primordial Continent through the exchange pod, set the climate for the coming year, and this climate data would be sent back to the Dragon Gate Base through this return pod, serving as a host for the climate of the entire Primordial Continent East District for the next year.
Additionally, this base also had powerful mobility. Once those hideously ugly resource gathering structures were discarded, this weather control device could detach from the submarine base, transforming into a city-level mothership capable of breaking through the atmosphere alone. The location where the Heaven Piercing Horn situated was actually the head of this dragon.
As for the Stabilizer...
Feng Xue found it in the data archive too—its full name was "Primordial East District Hydrological Monitoring Pillar." It seemed that it was lent out once thousands of years ago for the "Primordial Weather Adjustment Plan." While the exact nature of this plan wasn’t listed in the database, Feng Xue guessed it probably had something to do with Yu the Great’s flood control efforts.
"So, the more I learn about the Heavenly Court, the more intrigued I get!"
Feng Xue’s mouth curled in a smile, but he didn’t ascend to heaven immediately, not because he was cowardly, but because he was waiting for the cooldown.
After all, with a sub-light speed quality accelerator launch, the database only listed [Heavenly Immortal] as a standard for boarding; yet Feng Xue had no idea what this world’s standard for a "Heavenly Immortal" was!
Fortunately, he had 22nd-century toys suited for enjoying in black hole environments in his possession. The only issue was the two-hour anti-addiction.
"Sub-light speed, ah, two hours, even if this Heavenly Court Space Station is in the Kuiper Belt, it’s enough, right?"
...
During the cooldown period, Feng Xue didn’t just sit idly; he roughly skimmed through all the textual data inside the data exchange pod. But at the end of the day, this thing was just a mobile hard drive of a weather control console. Even though it ascended to space at sub-light speed annually, it was just a mobile hard drive. The archive contained no grand histories, technological blueprints, or encyclopedias, other than an overview of Dragon Gate Base and some bona fide hydrological data, along with precautions for Heavenly Immortals riding this exchange pod.
Luckily, the anti-addiction system reset at midnight rather than on a 24-hour schedule; Feng Xue hadn’t drifted too long in the monotonous data and once again initiated the transformation mode.
"Welcome aboard the Dragon Gate Accelerator. Launch in two minutes. Please fasten your seat belts. The initial acceleration might cause slight discomfort to those with the cultivation of Heavenly Immortals. We apologize for any inconvenience..."
The soft mechanical voice echoed in the cabin. Feng Xue took a deep breath and "wrapped" himself with what looked more like an instrument of torture than a "safety belt." As the countdown of the mechanical voice approaches zero, an intense bout of force, too powerful to describe, burst instantly.
As for how Feng Xue felt...
"If I weren’t armored, it’d probably just cause mild internal bleeding...so is my physique pretty much like that of a Heavenly Immortal in this world?"
Feng Xue pondered his physical condition, but the view outside the window had already drastically shifted from the blue sky and white clouds to the black space studded with stars.
Yet before he could admire it, that soft mechanical voice chimed again—
"The first course correction is about to begin. Please be prepared..."
Feng Xue hadn’t understood what preparation was needed when a sudden lateral shock pressed him harshly into what resembled an instrument of torture, the safety belt. Such course corrections occurred six times in just a couple of seconds. By the time Feng Xue could withstand a seventh impact without any reaction, the clear window already revealed their destination—
What a splendid scene it was!
Almost anything grand and majestic that could be used in a sci-fi theme could be applied here. That floating ultra-large city, as vast as a continent, was radiating bright light into the dark starry space, the clouds and breezes forming an Immortal-like scenario utterly out of sync with the space environment.
"Man, this is like a satellite-level ecological environment; but wait... why do I feel the speed is..."
Feng Xue paused slightly, realizing, this speed seemed outrageously slow!
The very vehicle he was riding was meant for sub-light speed projection! Yet now, it was "slowly approaching..."
"A day in heaven is a year on earth because of this?!"
