Chapter 64: Stepping On The Land Of The New World

“Gurgle~”

The trembling Silkworm Baby grabbed his trousers and started climbing up. There were a few times when it couldn’t grip properly and slipped down.

The little guy looked a little dizzy.

Little Fire Crow, which was in an even more miserable state, had already fallen onto the ground like a leaf.

The sprites of the other candidates were only from the water element so their conditions were slightly better.

Su Hao saw a Little Charcoal Tortoise hiding in its shell, refusing to come out no matter what.

Heavenly King Zhou witnessed everything and smiled knowingly.

As the Heavenly King of Treading Waves, he was completely capable of leading these students here in a more stable way.

But the impact of simplicity and brutality was greater.

It could also motivate them to improve.

He believed that these potential students wouldn’t be intimidated.

The gates of the base had long been opened.

There was a tall wall outside the base, with surveillance cameras installed everywhere. There were also a lot of firearms that Su Hao had never seen in real life before.

Weapons such as light machine guns and heavy machine guns were hung all over the base.

Although it was not really considered a sentry every three steps, this was clearly a military base!

…

Inside the base, there weren’t that many dark weapons lying around.

Su Hao and the other newbies finally relaxed themselves.

“This is the area in the base where sprites are birthed. We adopted different methods according to the different types of sprites.”

A base manager introduced the place.

From afar, the places where sprites were birthed looked like greenhouse sheds.

Through the transparent glass, one could see rows of plants inside.

There were different types of buds, vines and willows, moss, etc.

“Wood-element sprites are birthed from these plants. For example, the sprites birthed in the area where the vines are wrapped around are Vine Snakes…”

“The Green Blue, Wood-element mainly nurture 18 common wood-element sprites, as well as a small number of relatively rare wood-element sprites.”

“But even with some breakthroughs in technology, the number of sprites that we can breed every year is still very small… There’s still a very long way to go before sprites become a household with thousands of families.”

A candidate suddenly asked, “Why don’t you increase the number of greenhouses?”

He discovered that there were still quite a lot of vacant areas in the base.

Besides, couldn’t the base be expanded? The annual income of the sprite-breeding base should be very high, right?

Although this student didn’t say those thoughts out loud, the base administrator had a rough idea of what he was thinking about.

He shook his head. “Apart from technical methods, there is another more important condition for sprites’ reproduction and that is the geographical environment.”

“The Green Blue Base is located at the center of the primordial area, and there are only a limited number of sprites that can be nurtured in this area. Twenty-one large sheds are already the limit. Building too many of them will instead affect the speed at which sprites are nurtured.”

The manager paused for a moment before continuing, “You should have noticed that many trees have crystallized in the primordial area. This is a regional mutation phenomenon. The reason this phenomenon exists is related to the blending of the two worlds.

“You’re right. There’s a new world entrance inside the Green Blue Base.”

A New World!

To Su Hao, this was a term that was neither unfamiliar nor familiar.

It wasn’t unfamiliar because he knew about the existence of the New World. He had bought some rare resources, and was also rewarded with the Heart of Attributes and elemental essences at the joint examination. The origin of these items was most probably from the New World.

He had never heard of any place where treasures could be born in the wild on Planet Aquamarine.

But there is very, very little information about the New World.

Within the Sprite Union’s website, Su Hao couldn’t even access the section regarding the New World with his level 2 privileges right now.

They only know that the New World is a place where danger and opportunities coexist.

Only elite-level Sprite Trainers were qualified to explore the New World.

“Then why not build the breeding base in the New World? Is it because it’s too dangerous there?”

Some candidates continued to ask like curious babies.

The manager shook his head again. “There are indeed dangers, but they are not the main reason. There is only one reason—only the sprites bred on Planet Aquamarine would get close to us, making it easier to create contracts.”

“It’s not that sprites born in a new world can’t be contracted, it’s just very difficult.”

“How difficult is it? Just think about the wild sprites in the primordial area. Those sprites were born in the New World.”

Su Hao and the other candidates understood.

Sprites that weren’t native naturally had a repulsive and aggressive nature towards them.

This information was something they couldn’t understand in the past.

Even Bing Ning and Lin Mingzheng… Su Hao was similarly surprised when he saw their faces.

The group walked past the transparent greenhouses.

Su Hao suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at the large shed that looked like mulberry trees not far away.

“Silkworm Baby sprites are birthed over there, right?”

“That’s right.” Heavenly King Zhou glanced at the Silkworm Baby on top of Su Hao’s head. “If you contracted this sprite of yours in the province, then it’s very likely that it was born here.”

“Supervisor Zhuo, bring them in for a tour.”

The manager surnamed Zhuo was stunned for a moment before realizing.

Heavenly King Zhou specially allowed them take a close look at Silkworm Baby’s breeding area because of a candidate?

Who was that candidate?

Heavenly King Zhou’s son?

No, that’s not right… Supervisor Zhuo heard it just now. That candidate’s surname was Su.

Could it be…

He was actually Heavenly King Zhou’s son-in-law!

Otherwise, why would Heavenly King Zhou specially take care of a student!?

Supervisor Zhuo felt that he had just discovered the truth.

…

After observing Silkworm Baby’s incubation area for a long time, Su Hao didn’t discover anything special.

Because the sprites in this season hadn’t matured yet… Ah, no, they hadn’t been birthed yet.

There was no way to see the magical scene of sprites just being born.

The only gain was his Intelligence Points increasing by 5.

It wasn’t that bad.

On the other hand, Silkworm Baby laid on the transparent glass and stared at it with big, watery eyes for a very long time… That Supervisor Zhuo didn’t have any objections nor did he urged it. He looked pretty easy to talk to.

After coming out of the breeding area.

They continued to walk towards the inside of the base.

As expected, they were going to travel to the New World for half a day!

After passing through several security checks, they stopped in front of a huge alloy door.

In front of the gate stood two Sprite Trainers with cold expressions as well as two elite Leaf Blade Warriors.

“Defender Zhou.”

When they saw Heavenly King Zhou, their faces were filled with respect. However, they still carried out their duties and got Heavenly King Zhou to show them the relevant documents.

“Fill in your names and schools.”

Su Hao and the others followed his instructions.

A moment later, the alloy door slowly opened.

It revealed the inside…

It was a very spacious, sealed room.

Black cannon muzzles reached out from the surrounding walls.

The ground was made of concrete, but in the central area, there was a lawn that looked out of place. It was jagged irregularly at the junction with the concrete.

Su Hao was a little stunned.

It was different from the gate or space passage he had imagined.

“Let’s go.”

Heavenly King Zhou led the walk.

Su Hao stared intently. He saw that Heavenly King Zhou’s figure disappeared when he stepped onto the lawn.

Under the urging of the Sprite Trainers stationed around, Su Hao didn’t dawdle any further. He walked over step by step and finally stepped into the lawn.

In an instant…

His vision became much brighter.
