Chapter 132 Human Base
Yufei and the others weren't too bothered by Kukochi's explanation; they just wanted to get to the base as soon as possible, and it would be even better if they could buy a few sets of anti-radiation suits.
They traveled at full speed, and as they got closer to the base, the surrounding vegetation became increasingly lush, much of it unlike anything Yufei had ever seen before.
Of course, now is not the time to collect new species. Yufei plans to collect these species after they finish their work to replenish the 30 new species she has used up.
That's right, fearing she wouldn't be able to buy anti-radiation suits immediately, she exchanged 30 bottles of radiation protection spray for them, just in case.
"These species won't work; collecting them is useless," the baby dragon, sensing Yufei's thoughts, told her directly.
"Why? Am I only allowed to collect new species from Earth?! What if I collect them all and then they're gone?" Yufei couldn't understand.
"No, it's just that plants like these, which have been contaminated or had their genetic chains broken, can no longer exchange energy with space. Space has no use for them, nor is there any need to cultivate them. Only plants with original attributes like those on your Blue Star, whose genetic chains haven't been broken and whose energy is still locked inside, are what we need."
The baby dragon explained, "So only primitive planets like yours in the universe can do it!"
Yufei understood what Longbaobao meant, and then had a new question.
"Can that teleportation array transport you to other primordial stars?"
Although Long Baobao didn't want to discourage Yufei, he still spoke the rather harsh reality.
"It's very difficult! It's not that it's impossible to teleport there at all, but there are very few original planets left in the several universes. I had to teleport and select thousands and tens of thousands of times, almost exhausting my energy, before I finally found your planet."
Then he muttered to himself in a low voice.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have found you when my last bit of energy was almost gone. If I could have found someone with energy, I would already be fully charged. Luckily, the time travel was activated by chance at the last moment."
Dragon Baby thinks back then it really wasn't easy.
"What are you muttering about?" Yufei asked, puzzled, after hearing Long Baobao muttering to himself.
"Nothing! Huh?! The radiation is getting weaker. It seems the technology in this world is quite advanced. Yufei, you should make the most of it!" Dragon Baby said, changing the subject.
Yufei stopped responding to it, because she saw a huge wall, about a hundred meters high, separating the inside from the outside world.
"Come in!" Kukoc urged Yufei and the other two. Hearing Kukoc's words, the three of them quickly followed.
"Hey! Captain Koch has had a good day!"
"Haha! Not bad! Here! This is our team's toll fee, keep it safe!" Kukoc took out a light blue crystal core from his pocket and handed it to the person guarding the city gate.
The gatekeeper checked them and nodded, indicating they could go in.
Kukoc and his team seemed to have gotten used to this kind of life; the moment the gatekeeper let them through, they headed straight for a strangely shaped iron building.
That's right, the entire house is made of cast steel, covered in iron marks. Yufei and the others followed them inside and saw many machines in operation. Kukochi deftly put the big-eared beast he was holding, which Yufei recognized as a mutated pig, inside.
The pig had six ears and was significantly larger than other pigs on Earth. What else could it be but a mutation? However, this mutation would definitely appeal to those who love pig ears.
They just didn't understand what they were doing. Yufei looked at the several operating machines. She saw someone put a muscular rabbit in, and when it came out, it was still a whole rabbit, no different from before.
She initially thought this technology was for dissection, but it turns out it wasn't!
"This is used to remove and decompose radiation," Kukochi explained, seemingly noticing the questions in Yufei and the others' eyes.
Fearing they wouldn't understand, he continued...
"These organisms are much better than those overseas. After so many years of radiation mitigation efforts, the radiation levels on our land have gradually decreased. But no matter what, even though the radiation in areas very close to us has been greatly reduced, there is still radiation present. These organisms also contain radiation, which needs to be treated."
These machines in front of us are all used to process radiation. The food is purified after passing through them. Okay! The food is processed.
"Doron, come here! Take this big-eared monster to Master Li for treatment, try to get a good price for it." After saying this, Kukoc instructed Doron to carry the pig away.
He then asked Lei Jun, "How's it going, Brother Lei? I've handed things over to my brothers, and now I have some time! How about I take you guys out for a meal first, and then show you around?"
"I'll follow your arrangements!" Lei Jun said nonchalantly.
Kukoc led them out of the processing room and onto the main road of the base, intending to take them to a restaurant for a good meal.
Yufei looked at the fairly tidy street, but the houses on both sides of the street were obviously quite old. The passersby were wearing long robes and short sleeves that looked like linen, and their heads were all wrapped in veils.
The clothing resembled that of the Camel Kingdom, but it lacked the splendor and elegance of the Camel Kingdom's garments. Everyone was dressed in a drab, grayish style, and the numbness on their faces added to Yufei's profound sense of decay.
Among this group were people like Kukochiri, dressed in black bodysuits and gray armor, wearing helmets; these people were somewhat different from the others.
Like a withered landscape brimming with vibrant life, it possesses a sense of late-blooming vitality, under Kukoc's leadership...
The streets have gradually become much wider than before, and the houses on both sides have become more stylish and modern.
"We just passed through Sector D, the place where the lower classes live. It's where those who were eliminated during the radiation explosion lived," Kukoc said, his voice tinged with disdain.
In the Great Xia Dynasty where Yufei and her friends lived, where everyone was equal, they frowned upon hearing that Kukochi and his group divided people into different classes.
However, each world has its own laws, and they have no right to interfere.
"What does 'second-class' mean?" Yufei asked curiously.
"How so? A 'second-class person' is someone who can neither become a mutant with strength and speed, nor someone with elemental abilities, and whose body is also incomplete," Kukochi thought for a moment, considering how to explain this to Yufei.
