207: Future planning: island reclamation

After reading the mission description, Yang Dian pondered for a moment, then tapped his wristband and took out Unit-01, which had been upgraded at the Chengdu Armed Forces Department.

"Zero."

Hearing Yang Dian's call, a blue light immediately lit up on Unit-01's visor.

"I'm here."

"I need to leave for a while. Help me protect..."

After a moment of thought, Yang Dian expanded the scope:

"Help me protect the village, ensure it won't be attacked by Mutants and Awakened."

Unit-01 nodded:

"Understood, I will guard the village well."

Yang Dian heard this and opened the window:

"I'm going out for a bit, I should be back before dawn."

"But if I'm not back and my parents and Silly Younger Sister come looking for me again, remember to tell them."

Unit-01 nodded again:

"Understood, I know."

Yang Dian, hearing this, turned to leave.

But before he left, he suddenly thought of something:

"Oh, and if my sister wants to drive you, remember to refuse her."

"Without your command, no one else has the right to operate me."

Only then did Yang Dian nod in satisfaction, then jumped out the window and flew towards the direction of the ruins.

After Yang Dian left, Unit-01 closed the window for him, then entered standby mode.

However, the radar icon that occasionally appeared on its visor showed that it was still faithfully carrying out Yang Dian's orders... 1 nautical mile equals 1.85 kilometers.

136 nautical miles is 251.6 kilometers.

This distance was not far for Yang Dian.

Flying at full speed, he could arrive in just over ten minutes.

But he wasn't in such a hurry, so he adjusted his flying speed to around 200 meters per second, ensuring he would arrive at the ruins in 20 minutes.

As for what these 20 minutes were for?

Naturally, it was for contemplating his future Dao.

After a while of thought, Yang Dian first opened his panel and glanced at it.

"The remaining energy is nearly 50,000, which is due to that golden star in the Star Core Space."

"Tsk, less than a tenth of the star's energy caused my energy to surge by nearly 47,000."

"So that tiny bit of starlight contains over 500,000 points of energy?"

Muttering, Yang Dian again pulled out the unknown creature's egg from his pocket, touching the golden threads on its back that had shortened again, and said:

"So you, little thing, want to devour 500,000 points of energy to hatch?"

"That's more than all the energy I've gained combined!"

Muttering to this point, Yang Dian shook his head again:

"No, that's not right."

"If the light points around the Star Core contain so much energy, how much energy must the Star Core itself contain?"

Flipping the egg, Yang Dian instinctively tapped the Star Core absorbed within its body.

"How about you share half with me?"

As soon as he spoke, the unknown creature's egg suddenly vanished from Yang Dian's hand.

"Stingy." He chuckled, not annoyed.

One must know what's good for them.

Yang Dian clearly remembered who opened the dimensional portal to the Star Core Space.

Without it, let alone the Star Core, he wouldn't even have been able to touch the golden light energy, and would have had to drag his radiation-crippled body back to Earth in shame.

Not to mention letting him punch the Star Core, creating 6.5 Chinas, and then letting countless Alien Planet creatures rush to Earth like madmen to their deaths.

These were all thanks to this little thing.

What's more,

"It could already do all this when it was just an egg."

"So how powerful would it be if it could hatch?"

"Could it directly take me to the Star Core, and I could punch it occasionally to get some gold coins?"

Yang Dian felt that it probably didn't have that strength in its infancy, but after it grew up, it wasn't impossible to look forward to it.

"Speaking of which, I really have a lot of unusual creatures around me."

"Dudu, Little Black Cat, Little Orca, the unknown egg, and Da Lao Hei and two dogs with Mutant potential..."

"How do I feel more like a beast tamer than actual beast tamers?"

"Hmm, my Silly Younger Sister is the same, she seems to be particularly fond of small animals."

"Is this what they call a fool's luck?"

"Not me..."

"I purely conquer Mutants with my charm..."

Shaking his head, no longer thinking about irrelevant things, Yang Dian refocused his attention on his future Dao.

"The future path is either to continue cultivating martial arts or to Cultivate Immortality; in short, the pursuit is a blood and flesh Ascension."

"So I still need to thoroughly read the Daoist Canon and comprehend the principles of martial arts and Cultivation."

"Besides that, I can also study biology, which will allow me to understand the human body better and prepare thoroughly for researching and replicating the talents of other Mutants and Awakened."

"In addition, I should also spread martial Dao, at least first create a Dao that allows everyone to become extraordinary."

"If Dr. Bai can lead China's technological leap, why can't I lead the Chinese people to become Dragons?"

"Tsk, I'd like to see if he iterates technology faster or if my strength improves faster!"

"Also, punching out 6.5 Chinas and opening a full-map taunt, luring countless wild monsters to Earth, shouldn't that be a huge merit?"

"Creating one style of Gluttonous Eating Qi rewarded me with 150 million merit points, so how many merit points can such a vast territory give me?"

"Can it allow me to gather all the remaining heaven and earth treasures into my arms?"

Yang Dian felt he could look forward to it.

As he was envisioning the future, a brightly lit sea area appeared in his sight.

Over 100 dredgers and sand dredgers were concentrated in a small 5 square nautical mile area, blowing sand to reclaim land and build islands.

Next to them, several large destroyers guarded day and night.

If Yang Dian wasn't mistaken, there seemed to be several space-based satellites hanging in the sky...
