Chapter 1295 - 629: Zhao Kai’s Proposal
"Isn’t the Miyuan Rainforest already in our hands now?" Zhao Kai asked, puzzled.
Liang Yuan shook his head slightly: "As long as the brain core and heart core of the Miyuan Rainforest haven’t been refined by us, it can’t be considered ours."
"I’m going there to find that Pei Yuanhu and make him hand over the brain core and heart core."
Only then did Zhao Kai understand Liang Yuan’s purpose.
He couldn’t help but say: "Brother Liang, I’m afraid the other party may not be willing."
"Heh, if he’s unwilling, then we’ll take action."
"I’ll go with you, Brother Liang!"
Zhao Kai said without hesitation.
There was a fight to be had, and especially to fight alongside Brother Liang; he had to go.
Otherwise, enduring so much hardship, waking up early and staying up late for cultivation, finally reaching 100 points in main attribute, what was it for?
Isn’t it to help Brother Liang share some of the pressure?
Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Calling you over isn’t for fighting; I plan to let you refine the Miyuan Rainforest once we recover the heart core and brain core here."
"Only by truly mastering the brain core and heart core can you really have the strength to help me guard this place."
Zhao Kai was shocked and looked up at Liang Yuan in disbelief.
"Brother Liang, you, you want me to refine the brain core and heart core here? This, this won’t work, it can’t!"
Zhao Kai quickly shook his head to refuse, knowing how important the brain core and heart core of the Floating Island are.
Li Qinghua had rapidly elevated her power by refining the heart core of Mirage Snake Space, now becoming the second strongest on Yangshan.
Hearing this, Liang Yuan thought for a moment, then said: "Indeed, you are an Ice Attribute Superpower User, refining this Water Attribute Floating Island is indeed inappropriate."
"But that’s okay, you can refine one of the heart core or brain core at that time, and we’ll find another Water Attribute Superpower User to refine the other."
"By then, with the cooperation of you two, it will be more stable to hold this place; what do you think?"
"Brother Liang, why don’t you refine it yourself?" Zhao Kai couldn’t help but ask.
Liang Yuan smiled and shook his head: "The territory of Yangshan will only grow larger; why would I need to refine so many heart cores and brain cores?"
"The greatest advantage of heart cores and brain cores is to manipulate the terrain and sense changes on the Floating Island."
"I can’t possibly stay on one Floating Island all the time; once I leave, the advantages of these heart cores and brain cores become completely useless."
"So rather than staying with me, it’s better to let you guard these Floating Islands, consolidating our base at Yangshan."
Hearing this, Zhao Kai felt that Liang Yuan was truly open-minded; the brain core core of this Floating Island was the key to controlling the island.
He sighed and said, "Brother Liang, you really are broad-minded; no ordinary Superpower User could bear to let go of such great benefits."
Liang Yuan smiled, having a system at his side, these Floating Islands honestly didn’t entice him that much.
"The Miyuan Rainforest is indeed a good place; no matter how harsh the external environment, it’s still a paradise here."
"Planting a large number of crops in the future could absolutely serve as a big granary within Yangshan’s forces."
"Once winter is over, with snow melting and ice dissolving, we’ll take this Miyuan Rainforest and Dark Abyss Mouth over to Yangshan."
"Maybe our headquarters will have to move up here one day."
Looking at the surroundings of the Miyuan Rainforest, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but sigh.
Zhao Kai was shocked and said, "What about Yangshan?"
The Yangshan Complex, and the sunrooms were the first constructions everyone built and had emotional attachment to.
To abandon it would be hard to bear indeed.
Liang Yuan shook his head: "It can’t be kept; in summer, as the temperature rises, all the peaks of Linjiang City will probably be completely submerged by floods."
"The water level will definitely rise, and by then we’ll have to rely on these Floating Islands."
"This is why I’ve asked you to rescue as many survivors still trapped in buildings as possible."
"Next year, Linjiang may be completely submerged, with not a single building above water."
"Anyone not on a Floating Island, unless they’re transformed like Merfolk, will have no place to survive."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai remarked, "Thank goodness we have these Floating Islands."
"If it weren’t for you, Brother Liang, leading everyone out of Meidu Garden and seizing Yangshan, we would’ve been lagging far behind."
"These Floating Islands probably wouldn’t have anything to do with us either."
Zhao Kai felt fortunate to have encountered Liang Yuan at the start of the great flood and joined his team, which led to the achievements of today.
Imagine if he had selfishly stayed in Meidu Garden, who knows whether he’d be alive or dead by now.
The two walked and talked until noon when Zhao Kai led Liang Yuan to have a meal at the complex built on the Miyuan Rainforest side.
This complex was basically a replica of the one at Yangshan, but the building was much more exquisite.
And the manager of the complex was an old acquaintance, Zhao Kai’s current girlfriend Liu Feifei.
Nowadays, the two of them have officially become a couple.
Liu Feifei was more enthusiastic to Liang Yuan than to Zhao Kai.
Back when she awakened the Spirit Maze superpower, her consciousness was trapped inside the maze and couldn’t escape.
It was Liang Yuan who entered the depths of her consciousness and led her out of the Spirit Maze.
During the time in the Spiritual World, Liang Yuan temporarily played Liu Danian’s role.
Liu Feifei’s closeness to Liang Yuan started from that time.
Of course, this wasn’t romantic love, but a bond akin to familial love.
After their meal, Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai quietly left the Miyuan Rainforest.
They flew all the way towards the direction of Cangqiong Mountain.
Passing by Mide Mountain, Liang Yuan glanced over to see that the mountain was sparsely populated, with hardly any residents left.
Most of the population had been moved to the Floating Islands.
Nowadays, Mide Mountain, Cangfu Mountain, and Denggong Mountain are mostly covered with snow, with frequent activities of mutant beasts.
Zhao Kai said, "Now these three mountains have basically become hunting grounds. Many people come here to hunt."
"Also, some remnant members of the Earth Mother Sect and Water God Sect are hiding here."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Find a way to eliminate these remnants. They’ve refused to surrender for so long, there’s no need to keep them."
Zhao Kai nodded, "Alright, after returning, I’ll work with Qinghua to organize a joint operation, to thoroughly clean out these three mountains."
"The resources on these three mountains also need to be excavated as soon as possible."
"Especially the mineral resources, before the snow and ice melt, it’s imperative to empty out the superpower stones inside the mountains."
"Of course, if there’s the capability, moving the entire mountain to the Floating Island wouldn’t be impossible either."
Liang Yuan made a joke.
However, Zhao Kai began to seriously consider it and nodded, "Brother Liang, your suggestion isn’t bad."
"If only we could directly move the mountains to the Floating Island."
Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head, "Moving mountains and leveling seas, who could have that ability?"
"If we somehow achieved this level, we would have been unbeatable by now."
But Zhao Kai shook his head, "We don’t necessarily have to move them in one go, we can move them bit by bit, like the story of Yu Gong moving mountains."
"With a barrier guarding Miyuan Rainforest, its soil won’t erode, but Yellow Earth Divine Origin might. These mountain rocks and soil can be transported to Yellow Earth Divine Origin to modify the desert sand environment there; who knows, it might be suitable for growing grain in the future."
The more Zhao Kai spoke, the brighter his eyes became, "Just like before the great flood, we managed to turn large parts of the Western Border Desert into oases, didn’t we?"
"By then, let Yellow Earth Divine Origin and Miyuan Rainforest lean against each other, with Miyuan Rainforest providing logistical support, to manage the yellow sand of Yellow Earth Divine Origin. It’s absolutely hopeful."
Liang Yuan, seeing him serious, couldn’t help but ponder deeply.
This actually seems somewhat feasible.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded, "There’s no rush for this, moving a mountain can’t be done overnight, take it slowly."
"Yes, yes. Slowly."
Zhao Kai firmly nodded.
As they spoke, they had already flown over the three large mountains; soon, they saw the outline of Cangqiong Mountain ahead.
Cangqiong Mountain is the tallest mountain in Linjiang, towering above Mide Mountain and others.
Its magnificent mountain range stretches endlessly, with abundant billowing smoke, prominently noticeable amidst the endless snow.
"It seems there are quite a few residents on Cangqiong Mountain."
Seeing this scene, Liang Yuan’s gaze flashed slightly.
Zhao Kai nodded and said, "Yes, a significant portion of the Water God Sect and Earth Mother Sect members were afraid of retribution from us and climbed to Cangqiong Mountain to seek refuge with the Dove Faction Military."
Liang Yuan sneered coldly after hearing this, "Hmph, Dove Faction people really know how to play the good guys; without doing anything, they’ve gained so much human resource."
Zhao Kai said, "The Dove Faction people have a good reputation among the populace, their salvation philosophy echoes with many."
"Precisely because of this, quite a few people have come to seek refuge with the Dove Faction Military."
Liang Yuan coldly laughed, "Salvation? How? The great flood has submerged the land, and the places humans can stand on are all but gone."
"At present, the only plan is self-rescue. The military owns Cloud Mist Island, and most military families have already moved there; those people on Cangqiong Mountain have been settled there for now, but Cangqiong Mountain will eventually be submerged by floods."
"You see, they’ve gathered so many people, would Cloud Mist Island be able to accommodate them?"
"If it can’t, eight out of ten they’ll covet other Floating Islands."
At this point, Liang Yuan suddenly realized, furrowing his brow, "Wait a moment, Zhang Yujiang and others defending Pei Yuanhu wouldn’t have plans to seize Miyuan Rainforest, would they?"
Having thought of this, he was startled, his expression subtly darkening.
Can’t blame him for thinking so ill of people’s intentions.
Although Zhang Yujiang and others have a good reputation externally, even being dubbed the ’Dove Faction’ Military.
But Liang Yuan has personally dealt with the top of the Dove Faction Military; Feng Jiangong is ruthless, and Zhang Yujiang is deeply scheming.
These two can hardly be associated with gentle doves.
Liang Yuan’s eyes briefly flashed coldly, "No matter your intent, I must obtain the Brain Core and Heart Core of Miyuan Rainforest this time!"
"Woo-woo—"
At this moment, deep horn sounds echoed from the towering peak of Cangqiong Mountain.
Then, several flying superpower users quickly flew into the sky to intercept Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai.
"Who goes there!"
"Halt!"
"High-speed flight is prohibited within Cangqiong Mountain territory, are you unaware of the rules?"
The newcomers shouted harshly, reprimanding Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai.
Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai paused, Zhao Kai whispered, "It’s the anti-air system, seems like the military has developed this superpower equipment long ago."
Yangshan also has similar equipment installed at Gouwu Pavilion, used to monitor aerial attacks.
Liang Yuan wasn’t surprised, given the military’s technology, developing an anti-air system isn’t difficult.
The technical list provided to Yangshan by them included similar superpower technology.
Liang Yuan glanced at the people in front of him and waved casually.
Whoosh!
A golden invitation card shot over swiftly.
The newcomer saw this, his expression slightly changed, immediately waved his hand, and a Telekinesis swept over, quickly halting the golden invitation.
The invitation stalled mid-air, he didn’t touch it with his hand, but quickly examined its contents.
Just a glance, his expression changed drastically, and he looked back at Liang Yuan with a hint of surprise.
"So it’s Mr. Liang, our commander has been waiting for you for many days."
