Chapter 1687: Chapter 1019: Kawasaki and Gene
With the prestige of these old fellows who returned from the Starry Sky Ancient City, if all of their strength were fully restored, reorganizing this Netherworld would basically be effortless.
Liang Yuan just couldn’t wait that long.
The quicker ones among them, like Qin Guang and the others, would all need half a month to fully recover their strength.
Liang Yuan didn’t want to wait; he gave them seven days, and how much they could recover would depend on their own abilities.
He had to find the Blood River Sword within half a month, and still leave himself some Time to deal with the Eight-headed Great Serpent.
He had a premonition that he wouldn’t be staying on Blue Star for much longer.
Because he could already feel that over on his main body’s side, the Speed at which it absorbed Superpower Energy was getting faster and faster.
If this kept developing, in at most three to four months, he would definitely condense his Heart Core and Brain Core.
By then, Blue Star’s rejection of him would surely be incomparably immense, and in the end he would definitely be unable to remain on this planet.
So he had to Speed things up.
“Master, rest assured, we will definitely investigate the whereabouts of the Blood River Sword at the fastest Speed.” Xue Ming was the first to step out and state his position.
The others immediately followed and voiced their agreement.
Liang Yuan nodded slightly.
In the Time that followed, Liang Yuan poured his mind into it and began to devote himself to studying some of the technological inventions of the Netherworld.
Especially Arrays and Runes, Artifact Refining, and Spells.
“This entire set of technology in the Netherworld is all inherited from the Ancient Era.”
“In the future I’m going into the starry sky; I’m bound to encounter all kinds of relics left behind by Superpower Users from the Ancient Era. Starting to get in touch with these things now will keep me from scrambling in confusion when the Time comes.”
With Liang Yuan’s current realm, reverse-engineering the Arrays of the Ancient Times, the methods of Artifact Refining, the methods of Spells and such wasn’t actually difficult.
It was equivalent to letting a university student go study elementary school material.
After all, Liang Yuan was already standing at a very high height now; learning downward in a backward-compatible way certainly wouldn’t be too hard.
Moreover, he had a whole crowd of old antiques from the Ancient Times at his side.
Whenever he had any doubts, there would be someone to clear them up for him at the first moment.
And it was precisely while he was studying these things that Liang Yuan discovered another advantage of his Cloning Ability.
These clones could split up and learn different things, and once a clone learned something, Liang Yuan’s main body would naturally be able to synchronously grasp the corresponding knowledge.
This discovery delighted Liang Yuan greatly.
With this ability, his learning Speed was simply astonishing.
In just a few days, he had practically mastered all sorts of Rune Arrays of the Netherworld, Artifact Refining methods, and various Runes.
Next came the various tadpole-script texts recorded in the Netherworld.
According to Xue Ming and the others, this tadpole script was not unique to the Netherworld, but was the common written medium used by Immortals in the Ancient Times to transmit information.
In other words, once he learned this tadpole script, it would be equivalent to learning the common tongue, and Liang Yuan would be able to read Immortal Runes from other regions of the Ancient Times.
Liang Yuan attached great importance to this and decided to invest the majority of his energy into learning this tadpole script.
However, just as Liang Yuan was devoting himself to researching the tadpole script, at this very moment in the South Sea of Blue Star, two gigantic warships were rapidly cutting through the wind and waves, sailing toward the Ryukyu waters.
On these two warships flew the flag of the Lighthouse Country, and there were even quite a few English letters on the hulls.
At this moment, many White men in military uniforms were busy on the deck.
On the topmost deck, a middle-aged White man wearing a White naval uniform was holding a telescope, looking out at the boundless ocean.
Standing beside him was a middle-aged Japanese man with a bit of mustache on his philtrum.
This middle-aged Japanese man wore his hair in a braid, dressed in a suit, with a pair of triangular eyes and a fawning smile on his face.
“General Keen, that woman I sent you yesterday, how was she?”
“Heh, Asian women can’t take much; played her till midnight and she died.”
The middle-aged White man sneered, not lowering the telescope, still looking into the distance.
The middle-aged Japanese man beside him chuckled and said, “That’s easy; I’ll just pick another one out for you, won’t I?”
The White general called Keen said blandly, “Kawasaki, you Japanese really are skilled when it comes to training women, but I heard that women from the Dragon Country are even more flavorful. Can you find me a few Dragon Country women to try?”
When Kawasaki Shun heard this, he immediately laughed and said, “Yes. We once pushed deep into the Dragon Country’s heartland and captured quite a few Dragon Country women.”
“I’ll carefully pick some out later.”
“Remember, I don’t want those easy-girls. It’s best if they’re chaste, fierce women from the Dragon Country. Hahaha, only when they struggle does it feel right.” Keen laughed loudly.
Kawasaki Shun laughed along heartily and said, “You really know how to play. Don’t worry, this Time I’ll not only find that type of woman, they’ll also have to be Superpower Users, or you won’t have as much fun.”
“Haha, that would be perfect.”
“Alright, enough about that. Didn’t you say that Divine Beast was nearby? Why haven’t I seen it yet?” Keen looked out at the endless expanse of water and asked in some doubt.
Kawasaki Shun quickly said, “We’re almost there, General Keen. This Eight-headed Great Serpent is a ferocious beast from our Japan’s legends, incomparably powerful.”
“Back when it emerged from the volcano of Mount Fuji, it directly wiped out three of our Floating Islands and headed south all the way.”
“We kept people tailing it all along and chased it here. It definitely has to be somewhere nearby.”
“I’ve heard the name of the Eight-headed Great Serpent too; it’s a ferocious beast from your Japan’s legends, extremely formidable.”
“So the legends turned out to be true. It actually really exists, and was sleeping in the magma of your Mount Fuji. It’s truly unbelievable.” Keen sighed.
Hearing this, Kawasaki Shun also said with emotion, “Yeah, who would’ve thought? No one would have imagined that such a terrifying ferocious beast was slumbering inside our Mount Fuji.”
“But that magma leads straight down to the depths of the earth’s core. With pre-apocalypse scientific technology, it was perfectly normal to be unable to detect such a ferocious beast. I now suspect that many ferocious beasts from myth and legend might all really exist.”
General Keen nodded slightly at these words and said, “You’re right about that. Many mythical monsters from legend have slowly started appearing along with the current Superpower revival.”
“Kawasaki, you might not know this, but over in North America, vampires and Werewolves and those monsters of legend—heh—they’re all real.”
“Turns out they were all transformed from Superpower Users.”
“Under my command, quite a few people have that kind of bloodline and can directly transform into Werewolves and vampires.”
“But that’s nothing. You know what? Over there in North America, many ancient legends—ghosts, evil spirits—they’ve all appeared.”
“Creatures from hell have even popped out.”
“Even in this vast ocean, those so-called Cthulhu monsters from legend are all over the place.”
“Myths, it turns out, have always been reality.”
“We humans from those previous years were just lucky enough not to coexist in the same era with them.”
“Now that the flood apocalypse has arrived and Superpowers have revived, all these monsters have come crawling out.”
“Humanity’s hard days have come.”
Kawasaki Shun smiled and said, “That’s for ordinary humans. For a great Superpower User like you, in this era, you’re the Divine Being of this era, aren’t you?”
“Hahaha, you really do know how to talk. You Japanese—your women aren’t much, but your men are quite interesting.”
Kawasaki Shun laughed along obsequiously.
He was one of the three great department chiefs of Japan, the head of the Kawasaki family.
Yet at this moment, his presence here was not actually voluntary, but because he had been forcibly abducted by these Lighthouse Country people before him.
He had crossed hands with this General Keen of the Lighthouse Country, and the other party’s strength utterly overturned his understanding.
To save his own life, he immediately revealed the existence of the Eight-headed Great Serpent, and only then did he narrowly escape death at the other party’s hands.
