Chapter 818 - 818 42 The Method of Realizing Computing Power into Military Force

818: Chapter 42: The Method of Realizing Computing Power into Military Force 818: Chapter 42: The Method of Realizing Computing Power into Military Force After more than six months, Ian felt the most obvious change in Shasha was indeed that it had become ‘smarter.’

Having evolved into a Second-Level Magical Beast, and with the Thunder Attribute Essentia and various precious metal solutions promoting the development of its nervous system, Shasha’s thinking became much more lively.

This was evident from the fact that it could now happily communicate with him.

[Boss, look, the egg is shaking!]

Shasha wanted to show off the results of its recent care to Ian, its speech had become regular, its meaning clear, and its thoughts very coherent.

The only drawback might be that once Shasha began to speak, it could no longer control its floating flight.

As soon as its head moved, it tumbled back into Crystal Lake from mid-air, splashing water all over the cave and making the clear currents slap against the rock walls.

Normal.

Shasha had only just learned electromagnetic levitation recently, and it didn’t find this embarrassing at all but instead continued to communicate with Ian: [Energy, density is increasing, the lake water and the island are very comfortable]

None of these were actual language, but rather a bit of information perceived through Spirit Energy and mental communication.

Shasha’s meaning was clear, the Origin Quality in Crystal Lake was rising, and both the lake water and the central Crystal Island made it feel very comfortable.

Moreover, since evolving into an Iron Armor Shark, now that Shasha could hover with electromagnetic levitation, as long as it ensures its Origin Quality does not dissipate, it can actually leave the ocean and move onto land to live.

After all, the Iron Armor Shark is fundamentally an Earth Attribute Magical Beast that lives in water.

It needs to live in water only because it lacks organs for moving on land, and with its body density, it might manage to float in water by relying on hydrogen sacs, but once on land…

unless it’s attached to a huge balloon to become a shark airship, otherwise it simply can’t move at all.

But now, with electromagnetic movement, it has broken through environmental limitations and completely became a versatile species that can dominate the sea, land, and sky!

“As long as you can master flying, I’ll take you to land for some tasty food!”

Ian praised Shasha well; after stirring up a chorus of ‘oohs’, he then began to inquire about the recent observations Shasha had made around the Great Labyrinth and the Southern Sea, apart from the Dragon Egg.

Under Shasha’s confused but surprisingly clear main points in its description, Ian understood the current situation.

From the Fluorescent Sea to the Southern Far Sea, around the Odell Reef, which is the main distribution area of Redwood Base, a huge Spirit Energy Field is forming, a result of the operations of the base’s Furnace Core.

Various Magical Beasts began to appear, but most were primary Magical Beasts mutated under the influence of Origin Quality.

Only a few could form stable Magic Beast Tribes, or even be considered to be at the First Energy Level.

However, it is foreseeable that in a decade or so, the Southern Sea will become an area with extremely abundant resources.

Now Ian somewhat understood why controlled Labyrinths breeding factories have become strategic locations for major powers.

Because they can continuously supply a large number of low-Power Level Magical Beast Materials and even obtain Fourth Energy Level Magical Beast Materials like Crystal Dragons through long-term breeding.

In this way, a nation’s stable strategic resources would have a place to go, and it is by relying on these resources that they temporarily train a large number of military Sublimators for War.

And those wild Great Magical Beasts are mostly associated with the Labyrinths too, as they, with their status as Labyrinth Masters, control the Labyrinth’s resources and gradually become powerful Titan Creatures.

Knowing this, Ian completed a lot of his information about the Labyrinth.

But with this, confusion followed.

“Why does the Labyrinth produce so much Origin Quality?”

The simplest answer is that Labyrinths are largely remnants of advanced civilization legacies or things like the Spark ships or Extraterrestrial spacecraft crash sites.

Their Energy Systems would naturally dissipate a large amount of Origin Quality, incubating an ecological system around them, which is the source of the Labyrinth ecology.

But is it so simple to create Origin Quality?

Can it be produced so easily just with the operation of an energy reactor?

Ian felt this was not quite right.

If it were just nuclear reactors or any other energy sources that could produce Origin Quality in large quantities and stably, then the advanced civilizations of the previous era should not be limited to the Third Energy Level…

their individual power should at least reach the Fourth Level.

Furthermore, every large laboratory must be wary of their own Labyrinthization—a civilization needs stable experimental venues, not the Labyrinth dungeons we see today.

But Ian did not see any defensive countermeasures in these areas.

This proves that before the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, the energy systems of the previous epoch civilizations were probably not related to Origin Quality.

Especially since Ian now knew that the advantageous conditions around Dazzling Lake were precisely due to a ‘Sombre Crystal Engine’ under the lake…

and the excess Origin Quality brought by the Sombre Crystal Engine could even lead to the extinction of surrounding life forms.

If the Furnace Core of the advanced civilizations of the past also had a similar effect, even if it was much weaker, there should be some countermeasures.

The Calamity of Heavenly Fall may have changed more than just Terra’s ecological environment…

In fact, it may have completely altered some of the physical environments of Terra!

At least, it could have formed a gigantic Spirit Energy Field at the planetary level, making the birth of Origin Quality easier.
