469: Current status of strange stars

Seeing that Yang Dian's attention was always focused on the survival of America, Han Zhang couldn't help but glance at Yang Lele and Lin Ling.

Yang Dian understood and skipped the question:

"It can evolve the process of biological evolution, self-reproduce, and possess extremely strong adaptability..."

"Coupled with the ability to fuse various biological cells and evolve by taking the advantages of different organisms..."

"Doesn't it resemble the Zerg from movies and novels?"

As he spoke, he frowned again:

"Does the 'primordial cell' carry a signal source?"

"If it's a detector launched by a race similar to the Zerg, and it's transmitting into the Universe to find life-bearing planets..."

Hearing Yang Dian's conjecture, Han Zhang nodded slightly:

"We had this suspicion, so we also contacted Dr. Bai to test the 'primordial cell'."

"Previously, no signal source was detected on it."

Yang Dian understood.

"No" previously meant "yes" now.

After guessing Han Zhang's intention, Yang Dian turned to look at Yang Lele:

"I'm going out for a bit."

Yang Dian then added:

"Tell Mom and Dad that I might not be able to come back for New Year's this year."

Yang Lele showed a worried expression:

"Big brother, be careful."

Yang Dian waved his hand:

"If your brother wants to live, probably no one can kill me."

Even the Great and Small Star Gods couldn't access the 99th layer of spatial rifts; if Yang Dian didn't want to die, he was truly hard to kill.

"It's you, though; master your own strength as soon as possible."

"When I'm not here, I'll need you to protect Mom and Dad."

As soon as Yang Dian finished speaking, before Yang Lele could reply, Little Yellow Dog had already run to Yang Dian's side and started barking.

Big Black Cat translated from the side:

"Human, the little dog says that after you leave, it will guard this home."

Yang Dian smiled and rubbed the head of the now grown Little Yellow:

"Alright, then I'll leave this home for you to guard."

The large rooster standing on the roof opened its eyes, lowered its gaze, and looked at Little Yellow.

Little Black Cat also meowed anxiously:

"Human, I can guard too."

As it spoke, it pressed its paw forward, and a set of dark golden nano-armor, starting from its brow, instantly enveloped its entire body:

"Human, I have the Big Cat Armor, I can definitely protect the home well."

Little Yellow on the side looked at the nano-armor that suddenly appeared on Big Black Cat and immediately started barking enviously.

But for some reason, Big Black Cat, who loved its role as a cat translator, didn't translate this time.

Yang Dian smiled, patted Little Yellow, who was trying to paw at Big Black Cat but couldn't reach, and then asked:

"You want nano mecha too?"

Seeing it nod frantically, Yang Dian glanced at Big Yellow Dog who was wagging its tail by the door, then said:

"I'll give it to you next time I come home."

Yang Lele grabbed Yang Dian's sleeve, showing a pitiful expression:

"Brother, I want one too."

Yang Dian reached out and flicked her head:

"Don't you have Zero and Unit-01?"

"Go take the exam yourself."

"If you pass the exam, Zero will naturally let you pilot Unit-01."

After speaking, Yang Dian ignored Yang Lele, who was feigning dejection, and looked at the Plum Tree in the backyard again.

Finally, he couldn't resist, reached out, picked a blue plum blossom, and put it in his mouth.

As a gentle sensation swept through his body, Yang Dian also confirmed the current effect of the blue plum blossom.

One flower increased his energy by 157 points.

'Several months of nurturing, plus this Spiritual Qi surge and the world's feedback, the plum blossom's effect has increased by more than 5 times compared to before?'

Having confirmed the plum blossom's effect, Yang Dian turned to look at Yang Lele again:

"red plum for healing, yellow plum for strengthening the body, green plum for spiritual awakening, white plum for extending life..."

"You remember the effects of the plum blossoms, right?"

Yang Lele nodded:

"I remember. After practicing martial arts, I feel refreshed, and most things I can remember just by going over them once in my mind."

"Good that you remember." Yang Dian ruffled the Little Milk Dragon, who, realizing its 'dad' was leaving, finally stopped acting like a decoration and came closer, and casually said:

"Although I want to keep the plum blossoms to see if they can bear plums, if anything unexpected happens, don't be reluctant to use them."

"I understand, big brother." Yang Lele nodded in agreement and then again exhorted:

"You must be careful."

Yang Dian nodded, placed the Little Milk Dragon on Yang Lele's shoulder, and then ruffled her head again:

"I'm leaving."

With that, Yang Dian had already taken a step and disappeared from the courtyard... a short distance, yet a world away.

When he emerged from the spatial passage, Yang Dian had already arrived at the Expeditionary Force Base.

Standing in the office, looking through the window at the somewhat desolate base, where only a few cleaning robots moved along the roads, Yang Dian couldn't help but think of Strange Star.

"How are things on Strange Star?"

"The situation is different from the first dimensional fold." Han Zhang opened a report:

"Under the influence of the Heavenly Dao Ghost, when Strange Star invaded us, it did so through [Earth Vein Erosion], and the situation was the same when we counter-invaded."

"This is the second type of dimensional fold erosion we've discovered, besides [Spatial Envelopment]."

"The former is deeply rooted; unless the invading party actively withdraws, the dimensional invasion will continue until the invaded party is transformed into a Blessed Land."

"The latter only covers certain areas; when the dimensional erosion is completely fixed, the dimensional fold ends."

"That is, plundering a small part of the area and turning it into a small Blessed Land."

Yang Dian suddenly realized:

"So, you mean we don't need to do anything, and Strange Star will eventually completely transform into our Blessed Land?"

"It's not that easy." Han Zhang shook his head:

"According to tests from the Space Research Institute, if we don't influence Strange Star, the dimensional fold will enter a stagnant state."

"The dimensional fold state between the two will continue indefinitely."

Yang Dian nodded in understanding, then asked:

"How are the monsters created by the Heavenly Dao Ghost on Strange Star being dealt with?"

"On the surface, all strange entities that have physical forms and can be harmed by firearms and missiles have been completely dealt with."

"In underground areas, rivers, lakes, oceans, and other regions, due to the limited influence of technology, there are still many strange entities, and Expeditionary Force warriors are currently annihilating them."

"There are also some strange entities similar to soul bodies or those with elemental bodies that cannot be harmed by firearms, requiring Martial Artists and Awakened to use their Qi and blood power and extraordinary abilities to wear them down and eliminate them."

"These strange entities are more difficult to deal with; just cleaning up the soul bodies and elemental strange entities on the surface alone will take about 10 years."

Speaking of time, Han Zhang added:

"When Earth was performing the dimensional fold on Strange Star, Strange Star offered no resistance."

"According to observations from the Space Science Academy, at the current speed, it will only take another 17 months to completely transform it into our Blessed Land."

"The time is 17 months in the Strange Star world, which, calculated by Earth's current day and night cycle, is 8.5 Earth months."

Yang Dian thought for a while and then said:

"It's not necessary for us to solve all those strange entities."

"Soul-like strange entities can be handed over to the Beast-Ear Tribe to deal with."

"Before Strange Star completely becomes a Blessed Land, let the Expeditionary Force warriors return to Earth."

"The Expeditionary Force warriors have already missed the world's feedback at the beginning of the dimensional erosion; they cannot miss the next one."

"Also, what's going on with America?"

"O3's performance doesn't seem like that of an intelligent life."

"If Zero were to replace O3, Zero should have already swallowed America through a Machina tide, right?"

"Don't tell me it's a smokescreen launched by America's consortia, specifically used to reduce Earth's population so they can occupy more resources!"
