Chapter 365: Chapter 365 The Use of the Data Domain_1

"Those who break the law and refuse to repent will meet a bad end~"

Feng Yuan tossed the light screen in front of the old guard. The screen displayed a news report about a family in Great Xia being arrested for violating the laws of Great Xia. The old guard glanced at the photo and immediately understood what Feng Yuan meant, and chuckled as he said,

"Perhaps they never imagined they would be exposed?"

"Everyone is not a fool, not speaking openly is just to spare the blushes – after all, everyone has self-interest. But crossing the line is seeking death."

"Indeed, the members of the religious group in the West City district were his subordinates. Maybe he thought others couldn’t find out, but unfortunately, he was too naïve."

"Even without supernatural powers, there is nothing that can truly be hidden from everyone; he was too arrogant."

As the old guard sipped his tea, watching the light screen fade away in front of him, he said,

"Compared to those people, I’m more curious about what this actually is?"

"Projection System, isn’t this something that’s already available?"

After pondering a moment, the old guard confirmed,

"It shouldn’t be. If it were hidden too deeply, I might not know about it, but with this kind of technology, it shouldn’t be so hidden."

"Shouldn’t it? It’s just a Projection System after all. How could it be that it’s not been researched?"

"Rather than saying it hasn’t been researched, it’s more accurate to say it has no practical use."

Agunas, swallowing the sweet in his mouth, sat on the table, swinging his tail and said. Agunas and Najia played around for a while before retreating to rest, leaving only Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby still vying for the dwindling sweets.

"No practical use? I think it’s quite useful, like for livestreaming,"

Feng Yuan said as he swept his hand, and several light screens appeared around him, displaying maps, adventure guides, and common Spirit Beast Manuals, among other things. The old guard walked behind Feng Yuan, looking at those light screens with interest, and said,

"This is interesting."

"If it could be used in the wilderness, it would indeed be significant."

Glancing at the old guard, Agunas flicked his tail, and with a paw holding a sweet, said,

"You just said ’if it could be used in the wilderness.’ If it can’t connect to the network, relying solely on offline functionality is less convenient than bringing your own material."

"This covers almost the entire network except for special areas like the Land of Time Tranquility~"

Sitting back in his seat, the old guard looked at Feng Yuan with some surprise and said,

"Full network coverage? Even the Alliance doesn’t make such claims, since you simply cannot set up communication towers in the wilderness. Do you mean to say that special places don’t include most ruins?"

After all, Feng Yuan directly mentioned the Land of Time Tranquility when giving examples; everyone knows that place is practically independent of modern society. If coverage extended there, it would be truly odd, while most ruins are different. Although they block existing network signals, that’s just due to the special materials of the ruins themselves.

With a proud smile, Feng Yuan said,

"Of course~"

"Is this the effect of some Divine Beast’s special ability?"

Seeing the old guard speculating, Feng Yuan smiled mysteriously but didn’t answer right away. Agunas flicked his tail, as though remembering something, and looked towards Feng Yuan and said,

"The Data Domain you’re using?"

"Why did you have to spill it~"

Feng Yuan jestingly pinched Agunas’s long snout. Slapping away Feng Yuan’s hand with his paw, Agunas said calmly,

"Is that the finished product given to you by Ernis?"

"Haven’t you been with me this whole time? How do you not know?"

"I haven’t been paying attention to you all the time."

It seemed as though the old guard heard something strange and looked at Feng Yuan with confusion, saying,

"Ernis? Could it be that your Projection System was custom-made for you by Agunas through Ernis?"

"No."

Sitting back down, Feng Yuan waved his hand, and those light screens gradually disappeared. He took out something that resembled a mobile phone from his pocket and placed it on the table. Feng Yuan laughed and said,

"This is the livestreaming tool I asked Ernis to make. Of course, it also integrates the functions of a phone~"

"This small?"

Old Wei picked up the device that looked like a phone, weighed it in his hand, and tried to operate it. Finding its operation largely consistent with existing electronic devices, he put the phone back on the table. With a rare look of consternation on his usually calm face, Old Wei said,

"Does the Alliance know about this?"

Tucking away the phone-like device, Feng Yuan curled his lip disdainfully and said,

"They wouldn’t dare steal my stuff, would they?"

"Although I don’t get along with them, this thing is a very useful tool for ordinary Beast Tamers, so..."

Grasping what Old Wei meant, Feng Yuan stuffed a piece of dessert into his mouth and said,

"Don’t worry about it. Though Ernis was somewhat reluctantly, it agreed to help me deliver this to the Alliance. Maybe it has already tossed the thing over to them by now."

At the Alliance Headquarters, within the great hall of the conference, delegates from various regions were gathered hastily and looked perplexedly at Ernis, floating in the center of the hall. Presently, Ernis was in the form of a metallic mecha, with three pairs of metal wings on its back gleaming in the lights. The Alliance chairman, also puzzled, asked,

"Ernis? What is the purpose of your visit? And why call us all here in such a hurry?"

"I’m entrusted with delivering something."

Ernis landed on the ground, bent over, and handed the device that resembled a phone to the Grand Elder of the Alliance. The Grand Elder, taking the device with confusion, quickly got accustomed to the features under the guidance of Ernis. When he heard Ernis explain that the device relied on the Data Domain for signal transmission, he said in astonishment,

"I didn’t expect you to care about us humans."

Ernis snorted disdainfully and said,

"Don’t flatter yourself. He asked me to make it, and I only handled the processing. The actual design was all his doing. The design sketches are inside the device; look for yourself. I have delivered the item as promised; now I’m leaving."

"Hey, wait, who asked you to deliver it?"

Ernis, as if he hadn’t heard the Grand Elder’s shout, turned around and left the conference hall through the cavity in the air. At this moment, a delegate approached with some confusion and said,

"Is this device as miraculous as it claims to be?"

"Everyone, try it out. Next, we should discuss how to quickly popularize this thing and how to reward the designer of it... whether it’s a person or a Spirit Beast."

The Grand Elder was somewhat helpless; after all, it was common knowledge that Ernis was not fond of humans. But to say that a Divine Beast or Spirit Beast was especially familiar with phones and the Data Domain would be nonsense. The Spirit Beasts related to the Data Domain discovered so far were only a few, and all were within Great Xia. But if it were a human, it would be strange how they managed to persuade Ernis to take action.

"I recall that Ernis doesn’t like humans, so how did it agree to make this for you?"

Old Wei, puzzled, asked as Feng Yuan licked the food crumbs from the corner of his mouth and said,

"It just sees all beings as equal. It doesn’t have any particular feelings toward humans, no different than how it views ordinary Spirit Beasts, which is why it has so few friends."

"Though it was somewhat reluctant, it still helped me. I thought I might have to seek Its help."

Agunas cradled a teacup in its claws, sipped the tea slowly and said,

"Perhaps because you defended the world. It only cares about the world itself."

"I see. But don’t you manage it when it stays like this all the time?"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas said curiously,

"Why manage? It hasn’t asked for our help. Everyone has their own life. Why interfere with its life unnecessarily?"

"That makes sense..."

Feng Yuan said, his gaze drifting over to Old Wei. Noticing Feng Yuan’s look, Old Wei smiled and said nothing. After a while, Old Wei finished his last sip of tea and said,

"That’s all for today. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first."

"Remember to pay the bill~ It’s your treat, so you’re footing the bill~"

Old Wei laughed, waved to signal the waiter for the check, and after a while, Feng Yuan lifted up Xiao Ji, who had eaten and drunk its fill, and said,

"How much did you eat to get so heavy? Forget it, walk on your own~"

Xiao Ji glared at Feng Yuan a bit annoyed and climbed onto Feng Yuan’s head by itself.
