Chapter 106 - 106: 106 All Parties Act! Asking for First Subscription (Five in One Ten Thousand Words Chapter)
Translator: 549690339
Over the course of one night, Du Gang flew in his armed helicopter, Dongsheng 5866, to eleven spatial channels and obtained eleven yellow crystals.
“Eleven?”
Wang Dezhen was both surprised and elated upon hearing this news, but now his brow was furrowed.
“Wait a moment!”
Before replying to Du Gang, he turned his head towards Li Youcai who was standing beside him, and asked: “How many red crystals do we have left?”
Li Youcai shook his head, saying: “We don’t have many red crystals left. Although it is easy to obtain these types of crystals, we have not finished the group’s B awakening plan which requires many red crystals...”
“At the moment, we can spare about thirty thousand red crystals!”
Wang Dezhen asked again: “How many can we probably hunt during the day?”
Once more, Li Youcai shook his head, “Uncertain, the bugs stopped being afraid of sunlight yesterday evening, so it really depends on our hunting troop’s abilities... Also, we must adjust the profit sharing ratio with the hunting squads...”
The situation has changed. In the past, pioneer teams could easily pick up crystals, and contributing more wasn’t an issue.
But now, the members of the hunting squads have to literally fight the bugs to obtain the crystals, hence the required contribution ratio has to be decreased.
In order to maintain a stable rule over superpowered individuals, overwhelming them with authority isn’t sufficient, there must be corresponding profits!
Wang Dezhen cut to the chase, saying: “Just tell me, how many days do we need to repay these eleven?”
Li Youcai frowned and began calculating in his mind.
This involved estimating the number of crystals that the hunting squad could obtain in a day, subtracting all necessary expenses, and determining the amount that could be exchanged with Du Gang.
After a few calculations, the best case scenario would take two days to trade for those eleven yellow crystals.
Wang Dezhen looking rather awkward said, “Du Gang, we need two days to exchange these eleven yellow crystals with red ones, what do you think...”
At this point, he was too embarrassed to mention anything about multiplying returns. Who expected that bugs wouldn’t fear the sunlight? Even if he wanted to multiply, it’s no longer possible.
After pondering for a moment, Du Gang smiled and said, “How about this, for these eleven yellow crystals, you will give me a hundred thousand red crystals within two days. As for the remaining ten thousand, consider it as a rental fee for the helicopter and fuel. How does that sound?”
“Fuel?”
Wang Dezhen looked dumbfounded, then replied: “Your price is too high, the cost of borrowing a helicopter and a night’s worth of fuel doesn’t require ten thousand red crystals...”
Generally, there are two types of helicopters, those that are fueled with aviation kerosene and others that use gasoline. Even in the past, some helicopters ran on diesel for a time.
With all aviation kerosene factories having closed down, gasoline remains readily available and reserves are quite abundant across the country.
The military district’s helicopters were modified from turbines to pistons at the onset of the apocalypse, taking advantage of the functionality of some factories...
Even mixing olive oil as a fuel would work now, although the power output would be significantly lowered. But as long as it flies, it’s fine!
Du Gang laughed, “Not just for one night. I hope to borrow the helicopter every night. I plan to hunt dinosaurs daily. Also, apart from providing you with yellow crystals, I’ll trade any excess with other bases. You don’t mind, do you?”
Wang Dezhen readily agreed.
“Sure!”
Even if there were more yellow crystals, there would be no way to consume all of them at Nanyuan base. After all, they couldn’t always trade on credit, could they?
If Du Gang traded with other bases, it wouldn’t be an issue. In the end, they’re all human bases!
“Is there anything else?”
“No more...”
Du Gang suddenly paused, then said: “There is, it seems that Lao Ying (Old Eagle) is sick, he has been sweating profusely. Maybe we could get a military doctor to check on him?”
“Alright, you go and rest. I’ll send someone to check on Lao Ying!”
July 21st, early morning.
Those who had flown from South Harbour City, led by Ruo Bing, successfully reached Dahuang Mountain Base.
Ever since the Arctic Circle reported South Harbour City’s situation to all bases, they had intentionally started to gather together the psychic superpowered individuals.
Meanwhile, psychic superpowered individuals were also stationed at the air force base.
“Mental protection!”
The two psychic superpowered individuals who were always stationed at the air force base unleashed their powers as soon as the helicopter from South Harbour landed.
“Who are you?”
As soon as the aircraft landed, a military officer came forward to inspect.
This timing, it was not a day for planes to land in the Arctic Circle.
Ruo Bing and others quickly got off the plane, smiling and saying, “We are from South Harbour City coming for an exchange...”
As she spoke, her eyes started to change and her voice became seductively compelling.
“Hmph!”
Suddenly the military officer coldly hummed and turned his head to shout.
“People, arrest these individuals!”
“What?”
Ruo Bing and the others paled with shock, had their mental charm failed?
The officer smirked, “It seems that the news from the Arctic Circle was right, you fellows really want to control the entire world...”
Being a military officer stationed at the air force base, he was also a superpowered individual who was sensitive to the superpowers being utilized by Ruo Bing and her group.
Quickly, a group of soldiers came over and successively handcuffed all the ten-plus individuals who came from South Harbour City.
“Commander, how should we deal with these people?”
After handcuffing them, it was the soldiers turn to be puzzled. The base currently didn’t have any cells for detaining superpowered individuals. If they were put together with the ordinary criminals, not only would it be easy for them to escape, there was also a risk of them bewitching the prison guards.
The officer was also taken aback, after thinking for a moment, he spoke,
“Report this to the headquarters, and we’ll wait here!”
He now dared not take these women away from the airport. Here, at least there were mental-power superpowered individuals guarding. Once they left, if they were controlled, it would be a disaster.
It wasn’t long before the Dahuang Mountain commander arrived at the airport with a group of staff officers and a number of mental-power superpowered individuals.
Upon reaching the airport, they did not approach hastily, instead they had the mental power superpowered individuals scrutinize all the staff at the airport to make sure none of them were being controlled. Only then did they approach Ruo Bing and the others.
Seeing that the commander had arrived, the officer stationed at the airport quickly came forward to report the situation.
“Got it, let’s interrogate them here!”
The commander turned to Ruo Bing and others, asking, “What are you trying to accomplish by coming here?”
Weeping crocodile tears, Ruo Bing said, “I don’t know what you are trying to do. We received information related to the catastrophe and wanted to share it with you. Is this how Dahuang Mountain Base treats its compatriots?” Conveniently, a few women made a protective gesture over their chests, as if everyone before them intended to take advantage of them. The commander sneered, turned to the mental power superpowered individuals and ordered, “Do it, make these people tell the truth!”
In an instant, nearly a hundred mental power superpowered individuals in the field simultaneously attacked, pressing down on Ruo Bing and others.
The confrontation lasted only a few seconds, after which Ruo Bing and the others’ expressions become dull.
The commander chuckled, “Tell us, what were you planning to do by coming to our Dahuang Mountain Base?”
Ruo Bing’s eyes were glassy, her face filled with confusion, she mechanically said, “To recruit believers for the Queen!”
The commander laughed, “What, has your ‘queen’ decided to declare herself a god.”
“The Queen is the messenger of the God of Light...”
Hearing this, everyone at Dahuang Mountain Base burst into laughter.
“Last time, it was the God of Darkness, this time, it has become the God of Light...”
Under the control of the mental power superpowered individuals, Ruo Bing confessed everything she knew.
“Besides, we also want to unite all of mankind...”
“Tell everyone that Du Gang is the source of the disaster...”
“We controlled an envoy from the Arctic Circle and learned from him that there is a giant corpse tens of thousands of meters tall buried underground over ten thousand meters deep...”
“This disaster was created by the giant to groom Du Gang...”
Everyone was startled and quickly asked, “The giant is grooming Du Gang? How did you know?”
“The Queen told us...”
Soon, after further understanding, the people present realized that this so-called giant grooming Du Gang was merely the queen’s speculation.
After further questioning the specifics of South Harbour City and determining there was no more useful information, they finally stopped.
“Commander, what should we do with these women?”
Except for the male eunuch pilot, there were a total of thirteen individuals from South Harbour City, all of them women.
The commander turned to his newly appointed captain of the Divine Guard
Camp and asked, “Is it possible for these women to return to normal?”
The captain of the Divine Guard Camp shook his head, “It’s difficult, these women are self-believers of that ‘queen’, not being controlled. Unless their memories are altered...”
Ever since the Arctic Circle dissected the mental-power superpowered individuals, Dahuang Mountain Base enacted relevant laws prohibiting any mental control individuals from altering others’ memories at their whim...
The leader pondered for a moment, saying, “Ask them, if their hands are stained with the blood of human brethren...”
After the inquiry, everyone was taken aback. Every woman present had at least killed two men, and those like Ruo Bing had killed more than a hundred men and even personally castrated hundreds of males.
The military officers present broke out in cold sweat and felt chills down their pants at the news.
“Damn it, this is the trouble with women in power, their brains are warped...”
The leader grumbled a few words, then directly ordered, “Execute them here and now. These women are deeply sinful and there’s no point in saving them!”
As soon as his words fell, several male superpowered individuals couldn’t hold back anymore. With one punch each, they killed all the people who had arrived from South Harbour City.
“Clean up this place. Also, send a few more mental superpowers to guard the airport. Any plane, as soon as it lands, must undergo a mental check...”
Previously, they had assigned two mental powerhouses to the airport out of caution, without realizing they would really come in handy.
Unexpectedly, people from South Harbour City really came. Fortunately, these women had low levels of superpowers, the highest was only at Orange Level One, so they could be suppressed by the two mental superpowers stationed at the airport.
Their lower levels were understandable. Ming Yuwei was wary of these women having ulterior motives and feared they might control her, so she never gave them too many resources.
At this point, an aide asked, “Leader, what about Du Gang’s situation...”
“Didn’t we just ask? Everything is just Ming Yuwei’s wild imagination, she’s under the control of an evil god...”
After the leader said this, he added, “Nobody is allowed to leak what happened here today. If I find out that anything related to Du Gang has leaked...”
Without waiting for him to finish, everyone present responded in unison, “Got
Even without the leader’s instruction, they wouldn’t recklessly spread the information. Clearly, the news of the giant hidden ten thousand meters underground would be detrimental to Du Gang.
But they were the ones Du Gang had just saved, so naturally, they would not do anything disadvantageous to him.
Ming Yuwei didn’t just send one plane; she dispatched all the mental superpowered individuals around her, flying them to over thirty bases.
Ever since she learned manipulation methods from a bodily control master, she never used mental superpowers to control people again.
No matter who it was, man or woman, after a round in her prison, they all came out as slaves!
Particularly since she often publicized punishments and tortured to death those who resisted her in front of everyone, all people lived in fear and dared not resist.
Similar to the Dahuang Mountain base, all other bases had set up mental superpowers at the airports after receiving the situation update from the South Harbour City.
People who could take up positions as the leaders of bases were naturally not foolish; the dull ones had already been replaced at the onset of the apocalypse.
Therefore, of the over thirty planes from South Harbour City and almost four hundred mental superpowers, all were captured without allowing any to slip through the net
The leaders of most of the bases ordered on-the-spot destruction.
Only a few bases not controlled by the military, dominated by strong male chauvinists, ordered the torture of women from South Harbour City.
Apart from that, the local rulers unanimously ordered to keep the news about Du Gang secret!
Thus, one thing could be confirmed: Ming Yuwei’s hatred was fake. Her memory had been tampered with by a wicked god!
The Arctic Circle.
Lu Zhou and several national masters were in a meeting, discussing matters relating to the moon.
They hadn’t yet informed other bases and were first having a discussion about it.
Midway through the meeting, someone knocked at the door of the conference hall.
Yao Zhenguo raised his hand to quiet the room, “Come in.” A secretary hurried in, “Commander, we have a problem!”
“Speak! ”
The secretary quickly said, “1 suggest you go to the command center to see for yourself, the spatial channels have changed!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and quickly headed towards the command center.
Upon arrival at the command center, they found the place in chaos.
“Settle down, everyone!!”
Li Mingzhi’s superpower was peculiar – it had the ability to boost morale and placate the public.
As soon as his words fell, the previously frantic staff members all calmed down.
Guided by the secretary, everyone quickly reached the target equipment.
The monitor showed a feed from the Antarctic Circle.
“Gentlemen, we have twenty-two low orbit satellites, eleven of which circulate over the poles...”
“Just now, we received satellite images from within the Antarctic Circle...” “The spatial channel within the Antarctic Circle has disappeared!”
“What?”
Everyone immediately turned their gaze to the various screens.
Indeed, the video showing the Antarctic showed everything to be pitch black due to it being night. Bugs were swarming over the surface... But, the spatial channel was gone.
“It is gone!”
Yao Zhenguo’s eyebrows furrowed even further, as he turned to look at the national masters and others.
Lu Zhou was the first to speak, “It could have disappeared naturally, or someone could be controlling it...”
“If it disappeared naturally, we can determine this based on factors such as the duration of the spatial channel, its radiation range, or any signs of life within the Antarctic Circle...”
“If someone controlled it...
He didn’t finish his sentence, but even those few words were enough to get everyone’s minds whirring with possibilities. “What’s the situation on the Western Hemisphere?”
“We’re investigating!”
Most satellites launched by the Hua Nation primarily serve within its borders.
After covering the Hua Nation, most excess coverage is over major ocean areas.
To precisely monitor other countries, a global satellite network needs to be established, requiring many satellites working in conjunction to cover.
Unfortunately, the Hua Nation’s third-generation satellite system only extends to cover Asia. Many parts of the world are still unmonitored.
A technician suddenly interjected, “At present, apart from the Antarctic, the spatial channels in the southern hemisphere have also disappeared...” Soon, he pulled up satellite images of the Australian continent.
“Australia is in the Eastern Time Zone 10, three hours ahead of Hua Nation. It is just after nightfall there. I’ve looked closely; none of the satellites have detected any spatial channels...”
There are quite a few satellites from Hua Nation that pass over Australia. The coverage of the situation inside this continent is quite extensive.
The crowd looked towards other regions. The spatial channels in the western hemisphere were still present, so not all spatial channels had disappeared.
“Could it be related to the time zone?”
“Or, could it be related to the northern and southern hemispheres?”
The technician shook his head, “It doesn’t seem so. I think it might be related to life...”
He glanced at everyone and found that everyone, including Yao Zhenguo, was staring at him. This immediately invigorated him.
He quickly elaborated, “We have carefully compared all satellite images within Australia’s borders. Human life signs have not been detected for quite some time...”
“What do you mean?”
“There are no people left in Australia!”
In this apocalyptic era, the meaning of ‘no people left in Australia’ is obvious. They’re all dead.
“So... in a place without life, the spatial channels will disappear naturally?”
“It’s not necessarily a natural disappearance; it could also be manipulated by someone...”
South Harbour City.
With the help of the God of Light, Ming Yuwei broke through to the yellow grade without needing a yellow crystal.
The God of Light was not stingy with her. Not only did he guide her and help her break through her bottleneck, but he also imparted a special technique to her.
“Swallowing Starlight. ”
A technique that was capable of devouring the energy in the universe. Although it was not very effective in practicing on Earth, it still allowed her superpower level to grow by leaps and bounds.
In just half a day, she had already reached the Fifth Rank Yellow Grade.
She stopped practicing for the moment and stepped out of the secret room.
Rose was still dutifully guarding the door.
“Has there been any news from those who went out?”
She was asking about Ruo Bing and the other women who had gone to other bases to preach.
Rose shook her head, “No news yet. We don’t know if they’ve succeeded...” “Has the plane to the Arctic Circle not returned yet?”
“No, ever since we sent people to the Arctic, they haven’t come back. I don’t know if they’ve been controlled!”
Rose was worried, “Your Majesty, do you think anything happened to them?”
Ming Yuwei chuckled, “What could happen? They didn’t go there to do anything wrong. They went for the sake of humanity...” “Du Gang is the source of disaster...”
“The God of Light is the God who saves humanity...”
“What they are doing is great, it’s righteous!”
Ming Yuwei confidently said, “Don’t worry. They are all children of the God of
Light. If anything happens, God will reveal it to me...”
“Rose, just wait patiently. They will soon convince everyone, and we will unite...”
“Then, all of mankind will join us in the fight against Du Gang!”
Rose hesitated a few times, wanting to say something, but seeing the fanatic Ming Yuwei, she held herself back.
Ming Yuwei’s gone mad!
She could see it.
If Ming Yuwei hadn’t saved her life, she wouldn’t be here, accompanying her in all these matters.
Rose quickly shook her head to clear away the hesitation, affirming, “Your Majesty, no matter what happens, I’m with you!”
Ming Yuwei smiled, looking at Rose’s beautiful face. She gently stroked it, murmuring, “Of all these people, you are the most loyal...”
At this point, she suddenly sniffed at her nose, as if she had caught a scent. She said, “Rose, could you get me a plate of sausages? I’m hungry... I want it well-done, grilled to a crisp!”
Upon hearing this, Rose frowned slightly but still agreed, and quickly left.
Inside the Moon.
Nalan Hongwen’s gaze had never left the crystal cube.
Ming Yuwei’s viewpoint was his viewpoint!
This was the only image he could see about Earth.
He had many ways to monitor the entire globe, but he dared not use them for fear of being discovered by the people of the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association.
The Cosmic Civilization Protection Association, an association passed down by advanced civilizations, nobody dared to go against its purpose.
To his knowledge, this association spans the entire Milky Way Galaxy, not only did it have its own branches, but also countless powerful warriors.
Fortunately, Earth was in a remote location, and the forces that the Association concentrated on it were not many.
As for Ming Yuwei’s performance, he was quite satisfied. He was not a spiritual warrior and didn’t have the ability to alter memories.
The fact he could modify Ming Yuwei’s memory was because he had bought a Low-level Memory Manipulator from the Black Market, which could only be used on one person.
Ming Yuwei was the perfect subject he had found!
From what he could see now, the result was very nicely. Not only had she started a kingdom, but she also sent out a group of people to spread the faith.
In the plans for the Ancient God possession, there was one part concerning the psychological state of the target ancient god.
If he could make all of humanity despise Du Gang, then his plans would have been half accomplished!
Everything was going very smoothly as of now!
The only thing that bothered him was that Ming Yuwei liked castrating men...
And enjoyed eating roasted sausages!
Being a man himself, he wanted to wipe out Ming Yuwei for those eunuchs if he didn’t have no other choice.
“Forget it, after all, they are all primitive Earth humans, it doesn’t matter even if they all die...”
He shook his head, quickly walked over to the hatching controller nearby.
“This low-level hatcher is really intolerable...”
He was somewhat irritated. His family used a much more advanced hatcher within their clan to breed their children on the trial planet.
But the one he bought was a long-outdated hatcher from the black market, with very few features.
The hatchers used by their family usually hatched creatures that could pair with the people being tested, creating corresponding attribute alien species.
But he was helpless, every hatcher was extremely expensive, even this old-fashioned fixed hatcher, he had to borrow a lot of money from his mother to get.
“Turn on Earth life detection...”
As soon as the words fell out, he immediately closed his mouth bitterly, remembering that there was no Al in this device.
Having no other option, he followed the instructions step by step to turn on the simple life detection function built into the hatcher.
Then, following the instructions again, he closed all the spatial channels in the areas without a trace of life and the places where the life aura was weak.
Du Gang was already at the third rank, although from his point of view, it was already very fast, it wasn’t enough!
He only had five years left to live, to avoid dreaming too much at night, he wanted to force Du Gang to advance to the Fourth Rank as soon as possible so he could start the possession sooner.
“This tiny primitive planet has more than two hundred countries, really daring... ”
Nalan Hongwen complained. Their Nalan family controlled more than a dozen planets, but they didn’t dare to call themselves a country, yet these natives did! “Damn, I’ve eliminated quite a few countries too now!”
Seeing the dim appearance of the Western Hemisphere displayed on the device, he laughed out loud.
If he had the chance in the future, he would have to brag, that he too was someone who had destroyed countries once!
Soon, he cancelled all the spatial channels in the Western Hemisphere where the life aura was very faint and the image was very dim.
Then, he found the continent where Du Gang was located and set the button to increase the spatial channels.
He hoped that the Ancient God would quickly break through to the Green Level so he could proceed with his possession earlier.
As he saw it, everything was moving in a good direction.
The development along Ming Yuwei’s line was going well, and Du Gang, who was the target of possession, was also developing well now.
He had a premonition that it won’t be long before he descended on Earth, took possession of the Ancient God’s body, and ultimately destroyed this civilization....
