202: Chapter 202 The Plan is Finalized! City Construction!
Hearing this, Li Mo could not help but feel a bit suspicious.
Aliens? Folded space?
What Chen Xingbian said seemed a bit too outlandish, perhaps even bordering on conspiracy theory.
Of course, it was not that Li Mo did not believe in the existence of aliens; after all, the Alien Ruins in the Qiyuan Mountains recently had proven everything.
That ruin clearly showed signs of someone having lived there, but what Chen Xingbian said about silicon-based life forms, and using humans for experiments, was just a bit too unbelievable.
Seeing Li Mo's expression, Chen Xingbian seemed to know he didn't believe it.
However, he was not annoyed; instead, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly walked toward his bedroom.
"Wait for me!"
Before long, Chen Xingbian brought an object out from his room.
It appeared to be a rod, but strangely, the material of this rod was actually formed from a mass of fluid. Normally, something like this shouldn't be able to hold a shape, yet it had somehow formed into the shape of a rod.
Chen Xingbian handed the rod to Li Mo and then said, "This is an alien's leg that I brought out from the Mist Star Region!"
"Ah?"
Li Mo held the leg in his hands, looking surprised.
But soon he accepted the fact and began to examine this alien leg.
He discovered that the unique feature of this leg was not just its fluid form; its structure was also vastly different from a human leg.
For example, it had no bones and no blood vessels, but it did have some reticular fibers connecting the entire leg, which were likely similar to human nerves.
At this moment, Chen Xingbian added, "The life structure of silicon-based organisms is truly miraculous. In my hundred years of traveling the Universe, most carbon-based life forms I have seen have the same internal structure as those on Earth."
"But these silicon-based life forms are completely different. The number of cells in their bodies is far fewer than in carbon-based life forms, but the size of their cells is very large. This is the fundamental reason they can exhibit this fluid state! Of course, that's not the point; the most critical thing is that their internal nerves are exceptionally developed! Even more developed than those of humans!"
Li Mo shuddered, immediately understanding what Chen Xingbian meant.
"Senior Chen, you mean... they possess extremely high intelligence, right? Even stronger than humans?"
Chen Xingbian nodded in deep agreement.
In fact, what surprised him most was that the silicon-based life form—the alien he had captured—had already learned the general language and writing Systems of humans.
One should not underestimate these two Systems; language and writing are definitely among the greatest inventions of humanity. Any form of exchange and communication requires reliance on these two Systems.
This is also one of the key distinctions between humans and animals.
If silicon-based life forms possessed bodies like humans, it would be effortless for them to infiltrate human society.
Fortunately, there is reproductive isolation between silicon-based and carbon-based life forms. No matter how they modify themselves, it is impossible for them to truly become human.
Moreover, although this group of aliens has superior intelligence, humans on Earth, after the Spirit Awakening, can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into their cells, which is equivalent to undergoing a mutation, leading to a significant enhancement in physical fitness.
The aliens have extremely high intelligence but weak bodies; even if they truly turned into humans, one could tell them apart at a glance!
Chen Xingbian told Li Mo that although the interior of the Mist Star Region was intricate and had formed an independent space, there was absolutely no need to worry about the aliens inside coming out.
Because once they came out, they would inevitably be easily annihilated by humans. Their combat power was completely negligible.
But at this moment, upon hearing that the aliens inside were actually using human specimens for experiments, Li Mo could not help but worry about his parents and uncle.
Without a doubt, the human specimens these aliens were using for research were those who had entered the Mist Star Region.
Even a top-tier Martial God like Chen Xingbian had nearly been trapped and died inside, so there was no need to mention Li Mo's parents and uncle; they had not even reached the Martial God Realm!
Thinking of this, Li Mo immediately requested of Chen Xingbian, "Senior Chen, if it is possible, could you take me on another trip to the Mist Star Region?"
Li Mo understood that this request was a bit difficult for him, as Chen Xingbian himself had nearly been trapped inside.
But he had no better way now; in the entire world, the only person who could walk out of the Mist Star Region was none other than Chen Xingbian.
In order to find his parents and uncle, there was no other way besides Chen Xingbian's guidance!
However, the next moment, Chen Xingbian readily agreed to Li Mo, "Sure! When do we leave? I'll pack immediately!"
It was clear that Chen Xingbian did not want to stay here for even a moment longer.
Li Mo could not help but say, "Senior Chen, this trip is fraught with danger. Last time, you were nearly trapped inside; are you just agreeing to me like this?"
At this moment, Chen Xingbian laughed, "I am your subordinate now! Marshal Yue ordered it! How could I dare not to agree to your orders?"
Although he said that, Li Mo had never considered Chen Xingbian a subordinate.
In terms of rank, Chen Xingbian was a General, two levels higher than Li Mo. In terms of strength, Chen Xingbian was very likely the world's number one today, far stronger than Li Mo.
Furthermore, he was the father of Marshal Chen Han, had personally recovered millions of square kilometers of land in the north of the Great Xia, and was a national hero.
Li Mo was not stupid enough to treat such a figure as his subordinate; it was more like a junior humbly seeking advice from a Senior.
"Senior Chen, you are joking. However, the matter of the Mist Star Region is not urgent. Let's finish the business in the Misibi Mountain Region first. You should rest well; the construction of the Misibi Mountain Region still needs your help!"
As Li Mo said this, he prepared to bid farewell to Chen Xingbian.
Who would have known that at this moment, Chen Xingbian directly grabbed Li Mo's leg and said in an almost pleading tone, "Young man, take me with you!"
Just as Li Mo was hesitating, he turned his head and locked eyes with Liu Yufeng's gaze, which was filled with killing intent!
"Young man, I've helped you tune your flying daggers! You are welcome to come over for a meal next time!"
Liu Yufeng's tone was very gentle, but her killing intent was very pure.
Li Mo's mouth twitched, "Senior Chen, I am powerless to help! Farewell!"
Saying this, Li Mo immediately left the Marshal's mansion, and then, inside the mansion, the sounds of pig-like screams began to ring out again.
Soon, the vacation for Li Mo and the others ended.
How to develop the Misibi Mountain Region became the top priority at hand.
In addition to the miners necessary for developing the Misibi Mountain Region, Li Mo also needed to select the immigrant population required to build the city.
According to Zhao Zhenyuan's vision, he hoped that Li Mo would utilize the vast terrain of the Misibi Mountain Region to build a city.
Once this city was built, it would become a nail driven by the Great Xia into the edge of the Black Earth Tribe.
In the future, no matter what movements the Black Earth Tribe made, the Great Xia would be able to know about it at the first opportunity!
They could even use this city as a springboard to directly attack the Black Earth Tribe's homeland!
