Chapter 158

Only when he returned to the Ether Laboratory did Ye Bai feel relieved.

It was originally just an operation to understand the chaotic star sea, and the process was successful. However, she did not expect such a change to happen at the end, which gave her many thoughts.

Ye Bai could feel that the torrent of information contained a huge amount of information, which could answer all her current questions, but precisely because it was too much, she was unable to receive most of the content.

At least when she was still at F level, Ye Bai only needed to spend a little more time to "read" the information when communicating with the C level Aurora. Now, with her B level mental power, she can only get a glimpse of the torrent of information, which shows the gap.

Moreover, Ye Bai had sensed before that if he wanted to make that attempt again, normal space would not work, and he would need to go to a special area like the wormhole mission.

After confirming his idea, Ye Bai took a closer look at the dark magnetic production technology obtained in this mission, and unveiled the bottom layer of this mysterious substance -

Unexpectedly, the basic material for making phantom magnets is not rare. It is silicon, which is present in a large amount in the universe. Of course, phantom magnets are obtained by compressing this element to the extreme with powerful energy under a special atomic arrangement.

This special method makes it "unrecognizable", and because of its unique effect, it is considered to be a new special substance.

With a thought, this newly acquired technology turned into a new star and appeared in the Ether Laboratory.

Although he knew the production method, Ye Bai couldn't make it with his bare hands. Instead, he needed to operate it in the ether laboratory. However, Ye Bai was not short of money now, so he put it aside for the time being.

Closing his eyes, Ye Bai connected to the star network.

Improving her strength was listed as her top priority at the moment.

Ye Bai could not ignore this sudden information and instinctively felt that it was extremely important.

Don't be discovered, be alert to the stars, familiar flashes... If her mental power could be stronger, for example, upgraded to A-level before trying again, would she be able to understand more information?

Ye Bai logged onto the Star Network and checked the universe news as usual.

Then I found myself famous again.

[White Night City Territory Rating Exceeds 100,000]

When Ye Bai opened the hottest news, he saw a screenshot of the lord rankings.

First place, Bai Ye, territory score: 100000, resource points occupied: 2

Second place, Zeta, territory score: 43428

Third place, Ximo, territory score, 42973

Fourth place...

Interstellar people have a strong sense of ritual...Ye Bai feels that he can't stick to this integer screenshot.

At the same time, the news also included a lot of "dry goods" from space experts and scholars analyzing her territory.

As the front-line territories gradually upgraded to level six, the role of school tendencies was no longer a secret. Intermediate libraries and inventions gradually became known to civilizations, and information about resource points was correctly inferred by them based on various clues:

"Combined with the improvement in White Night City's guard level, I preliminarily speculate that White Night City has a special upgrade channel, perhaps similar to the initial Void Gate, with a certain time interval. The acquisition of resource points is also likely related to this..."

"However, the relevant technology may only be available to a level seven territory. In terms of acquiring knowledge and developing territory education, Bai Ye is already far ahead of us. This gap is estimated to take at least four in-game months to close..."

"Perhaps what we should study most is why Bai Ye always stays on the right path?"

"Because I have a strategy..."

After answering silently in his heart, Ye Bai logged into Wanjie.

This outbound mission did not take too much time, and only one game day passed in the Ten Thousand Worlds.

Walking on the smooth stone road in the territory, Ye Bai saw that with the assistance of a large number of players, the entire basic appearance of Baiye City has completely changed.

The entire inner city has been formed, and the roads, houses, and infrastructure have been upgraded. It looks like it has the prototype of an NPC main city, while retaining the unique style of a player town, and has not delayed the normal production and life of the territory at all.

Under such circumstances, the lords on the lord rankings finally realized that when White Night City, whose productivity was completely provided by NPCs, had a huge leap after obtaining the player's "plug-in", it was not just a simple matter of adding wings to a tiger.

Because the production chain of White Night City is extremely healthy, after the players have undertaken a large amount of redundant and simple basic work, the NPCs will perform technical work to improve professional proficiency. With the bonus of policy cards, the efficiency is extremely high.

There are also inventions, dungeon clearance, and bonus points for occupying resource points that no ordinary territory can accomplish at this stage... After half a month of being promoted to a city, the territory score should indeed reach 100,000.

The rating of White Night City once again widened the gap between the numbers and those of other territories. The most frustrating thing was that many of the great lords with civilized backgrounds on the lord rankings knew the reason why White Night City received so much help from players, but they were unable to stop it.

Because the Blue Star server is not active on a single civilization in the Star Alliance, but gathers agents from a large number of civilizations. There is competition among these civilizations. As long as there is one civilization willing to do the White Night City mission, the other civilizations that refuse will lose out.

In this context, it would be better for everyone to get the equipment back together to reduce some losses, and also to check the construction progress of White Night City in real time.

This was Ye Bai's conspiracy, and she knew that the Star Alliance could not refuse.

Coming to the Tree of Creation, Ye Bai spent three productivity points to light up an [Industrialization] technology. The effect of this technology is to integrate the different production activities that have reached a certain level in the territory into a specialized industry, which can further improve production efficiency and reduce industrial costs.

After lighting up, Ye Bai directly planned out the [Equipment] and [Luxury Goods] industries. The [Equipment] industry encompassed the production content of the blacksmith shop and the tailor shop, while the [Luxury Goods] industry integrated the production content of some tailor shops, jewelry, and handicrafts.

Currently, the monthly fiscal revenue and expenditure of White Night City is about a surplus of fifty to sixty gold coins. This figure is still increasing with the increase in population and tourism performance. The reason why it has not exceeded one hundred is because of the recent increase in military expenditure.

After upgrading the industry in the future, Ye Bai expects this income to increase several times.

After all, in the future, as the player levels of the Blue Star server increase, someone will buy the extra equipment in his territory.

Now, if Ye Bai wants to improve her strength as quickly as possible, the only place she can go is the Divine Realm. However, because exploring the Divine Realm takes a long time every time, in order to prevent unexpected situations, she did not use the Well of Origin to leave immediately.

While handling various daily affairs of the territory, Ye Bai also led the territory NPCs to conduct two void captures. During this period, he also found time to complete the opening of five trade routes.

Finally, with the addition of the two previous batches of "experience babies", the levels of the total two hundred territory combat units in White Night City have been upgraded to levels 55 to 60. This number of military units is not a small number when deployed in the main city.

Of course, compared to the main city, White Night City still lacks high-end combat power after the third transformation, so it depends on the accumulation of knowledge.

However, for the Blue Star server players who are still trying to recover to the second level, these guard forces are more than enough.

After finding a few confidants in the territory and making some arrangements, Ye Bai brought Ottophis and the paper man and once again came to the Well of Origin.

Seeing the mysterious yet familiar semi-illusory well, Ye Bai felt a little relieved.

In fact, she was not completely sure about raising her mental power to A-level, because as far as she remembered, the upper limit of player level in the public beta phase was level 80, and the demigod level after level 80 would not be unlocked until the Divine Realm expansion was released.

But since she has obtained the blueprint of the Well of Origin, and the Divine Realm does exist, perhaps this world is different from the public beta version in her memory.

“Tick…”

The Well of Origin had already been fully charged, and the illusory water flow carried Ye Bai on a familiar journey.

After the third transformation, her strength increased and Ye Bai could stay awake longer when traveling. Even though she still felt dizzy, she was able to completely overcome it at this stage.

After a moment of trance, the divine realm, which was always filled with an indescribable desolate atmosphere, appeared in front of Ye Bai again.

"Ahhh!"

Back in the familiar realm of gods, Ottophis beside Ye Bai barked and started walking around.

"Wuming, can you tell where this place is?"

Ye Bai looked up and saw his surroundings. It was a barren open space with a hard, dark brown ground. Looking around, apart from one or two scattered weeds that he couldn't name in the distance, there was almost no sign of any plants or animals, let alone buildings or people.

Kraken had originally sent her back to the surface from Purgatory, so there was naturally no way for Ye Bai to "return the same way". After all, she had originally gone to Purgatory because the paper man had reversed the summoning ritual of the Purgatory cultists and performed a reverse summoning.

At that time, Ye Bai could only confirm that it was safe here and then returned, so he still doesn’t know where this place is.

Hearing Ye Bai's question, the paper man replied: "There is no information at the information level, but this time our destination is the Emerald Forest, and there is a simpler way."

"A simpler way, you mean the Tree Branch of Life?" Ye Bai reacted immediately after hearing this, his eyes falling on the pendant on his waist.

In addition to being a mission item and a pendant with excellent properties, it is essentially a branch of the elves' sacred tree of life.

"That's right," the paper figure replied. "The Emerald Forest is a magical forest created by the life force of the Tree of Life. Through the connection between the key and the Tree of Life itself, we can be guided to the location of the Emerald Forest. Now we just need to use your spiritual energy to activate the branches of the Tree of Life."

Ye Bai nodded and took off the pendant from his waist.

Infusing spiritual energy is actually injecting mental power.

The next moment, a ray of light appeared on this exceptionally fresh and green branch in Ye Bai's hand.

At the same time, map instructions like those that appeared when opening up trade routes appeared in Ye Bai's consciousness.

However, when he saw the direction he was directed to, Ye Bai was stunned.

Seeing this, the paper man hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Bai said with a strange expression: "If the instructions are correct, we are now in the Emerald Forest."
