"What were you doing just now? I felt a very strong cold force."
"Nothing, I was just testing a little magic." Chu Yao changed the subject. "Can we go explore that cave now?"
"Of course you can, but won't you make more preparations?"
"Hmm..." Chu Yao tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Then I'll go to the 'base' and take a look. I wonder if they've made any progress on the development of their new engine."
"Okay." Bai Yuejian nodded. "Xiao Ye is almost ready too. She seems to have gained some insights from your tribulation. I will help her build her foundation and protect her."
The two said goodbye outside the cave, and Chu Yao found his motorcycle parked on the roadside outside the hill.
Looking back, the cave was once again hidden in the formation and disappeared out of thin air.
Chu Yao got on the motorcycle and sped away in the opposite direction of Lenghu Town.
With her current level of cultivation, her speed of escape is actually much faster than ordinary driving, and she can be called a land immortal.
But why waste spiritual energy when you can waste gas? And driving is cool.
On the way, they approached a signal tower, and Chu Yao's phone finally had a signal, and she also received a reply from Xiaohuo.
Some ancient ruins have indeed been discovered near the Intoxicating Peak, but the land where the ruins are located is now controlled by a small, unknown listed company.
According to Maoyan's intelligence, this small company does not have any real industries under its umbrella. It engages in software research on the surface, but secretly does some shady things.
For example, the rumor about the so-called "immortal relics" was spread by this small company, and the purpose is self-evident.
In a nutshell, they are a bunch of liars.
Chu Yao put away her phone. She had expected this result.
It’s a pity that Taoist Qingxuan and his friends were cheated at such an old age and came here from far away.
But since they were willing to fight and be beaten, it was not something Chu Yao could do.
The fiery red motorcycle left the crowd behind and rushed straight ahead.
The location of the "base" is roughly in the northeast of the wasteland, not far from Xindu.
I just don’t know whether the current new capital should be called the “old capital”.
As time goes by, a high concrete wall with no visible end gradually comes into view, and behind the wall are the skyscrapers of Xindu.
These tall buildings rise from the wasteland, and the connection between the city streets and the desert is extremely abrupt, as if someone had cut a piece off, and the knife was this seemingly endless high wall.
This wall has a name, called sand-proof wall.
As the name suggests, this is a barrier specially built by the steel dome to protect the city from the invasion of wind and sand.
This barrier not only isolates the wind and sand, but also isolates people.
People without city residence permits are not allowed to pass through the sand control wall.
Chu Yao didn't fall into this category. As a well-known entrepreneur, the Steel Dome Company, which controlled Lingyuan, had already issued her a residence permit the day before the policy was announced.
But she didn't go there often unless it was necessary. Survival in the new capital was not much easier than in the wasteland.
Along a dark wall tens of meters high, two or three kilometers away from the city, a factory appeared on the wasteland.
There are no other buildings around it, except for some rocks and dry vegetation unique to the desert, and a winding path connected to the sand-control wall.
Chu Yao drove his motorcycle along the path to the outside of the white wall of the factory. On the top of the tallest building in the factory, the cat head logo was slightly distorted in the hot air.
She smiled and gestured to the young security guard standing guard inside the house by the gate, who immediately opened the door for her.
Walking into the building, you will see machines used to produce medicines neatly arranged and still in operation.
There weren't many employees, and they were all busy with their own things. They didn't stop working just because of Chu Yao's arrival. Chu Yao greeted the supervisor and went to a secluded room.
After passing through facial recognition, card swiping, and voice authentication, Chu Yao finally arrived at the "third underground floor" of the factory which did not exist in the open.
After taking the elevator and walking through a long corridor lined with pipes, a huge building comes into view.
Most of it is a skeleton made of steel bars, but the overlapping structure can be seen as a giant ship.
Only about a quarter of the ship was complete, with only the rough outline remaining. Even so, the outline suggested it was over a kilometer long.
In the empty underground space, the unfinished giant spaceship was placed on a one-meter-high platform, surrounded by various instruments and computers. Countless people in cat-tail uniforms were busy working around it.
This is the secret base of Maowei Company on the third continent. It also has another name given by Chu Yao: Maowei Shelter.
The giant ship frame, which has been completed by a quarter, is the large spacecraft that was secretly developed three years ago.
All of this was done secretly under the nose of Steel Dome. After all, they would not allow any company to do such a thing privately.
This was a nearly impossible task. After all, this place was only a few kilometers away from the New Capital. The maintenance of underground equipment, the transportation of spacecraft materials, the movement of personnel, and the expenses... if any step went wrong, the Cat Tail Company would be liquidated by the Steel Dome.
But Chu Yao did it.
Don't forget her identity. She is a monk, so naturally she has all kinds of monk methods to cover up all this.
Even though it was still difficult with the methods of a monk, she still overcame many difficulties and came to where she is today.
For example, the various electronic equipment displayed under the spacecraft were transported one by one by Chu Yao in storage bags.
For example, in order to prevent Gangqiong from noticing the large number of personnel changes in Maowei Company, Chu Yao spent a lot of effort to modify the memories of those Gangqiong employees.
For example, before the base became self-sufficient in food, Chu Yao had to try his best to find food every day, running between the wasteland and the new capital day and night.
There is no need to mention the various hardships.
All of this is for two words: go home.
Leave Lingyuan Star, leave Konghai, and return to Fengyuan.
Even though Fengyuan Star may have been completely changed under the management of Yali Company, it is still good to take a look at it.
This is also the hope of all the Tianyin Sect members gathered here at this moment.
"I can't see through your cultivation again." A voice came from my ear.
Chu Yao turned around and saw that the person coming was Gong Xiaoran, who was dressed lightly. Her current cultivation level was the middle stage of foundation building.
"Congratulations, Mr. Chu, for his promotion to the Golden Core stage." Xiaoran smiled and bowed.
"It sounds a bit strange, neither ancient nor modern." Chu Yao scratched his head. "Thank you, Xiaoran. Is Qingyu here? Has the stuff I asked him to order arrived?"
"He's in the third lab. He seems to be arguing with those old professors today. Come on, I'll take you there."
