Chapter 154: Starry Sky Gate
Boom boom boom.
Luo Xiang appeared at Bai Qi's door on time and knocked on it.
"Um... is it morning already?"
Although he hadn't slept all night, Bai Qi was still a little excited. He put away the green dragon scales in his hand and opened the door.
"Brother Luo, are you leaving?"
Luo Xiang nodded and said, "They are in a hurry, so we should leave early."
As he spoke, Luo Xiang suddenly sniffed and said, "You just came back from the Green Dragon Secret Realm. Such a strong natural force?"
Oh my god, you can smell this? Are you born in the year of the dog?
Bai Qi looked at Luo Xiang suspiciously. Could Luo Xiang be a traitor like Li Xusheng?
"Don't let your imagination run wild. I am a pure human. It's just that I have been to so many secret realms that my five senses have become stronger."
Is there such a benefit in clearing secret realms?
It seems that I have to go out and run more when I have nothing to do in the future.
"Okay, let's get going quickly, the people over there are urging us pretty urgently."
Bai Qi nodded when he heard this, and followed Luo Xiang out of the dormitory quickly. A small aircraft was already waiting there.
"Crazy Owl - Type III? Tsk... It's a pity that the mechanical illustrations traded by Bureau Thirteen don't include these, otherwise the Husky could be transformed into a plane directly."
Bai Qi smacked his lips with some regret. The Thirteenth Bureau's atlas contained a series of creations including most mechanical weapons and armor below the seventh level, but there would definitely not be a strategic-level aircraft like the Mad Owl.
After all, some things can only be controlled by the federal government.
A man in a blue military uniform stepped down from the aircraft, saluted Luo Xiang, and said, "Master Luo, can we set off now?"
"No problem. Let's go."
Luo Xiang nodded, then pulled Bai Qi over and boarded the plane. The man immediately entered the cockpit, and the Crazy Owl immediately took off and disappeared into the sky.
Looking at the rapidly disappearing scenery outside the window, a hint of curiosity flashed in Bai Qi's eyes.
Seeing this, Luo Xiang smiled faintly and said, "Are you curious about why the military came to pick us up?"
Bai Qi nodded. After staying at the headquarters for so many days, Bai Qi also learned some situations that were not usually clear.
Although the association is the only official beastmaster organization certified by the Federation, and the cooperation and interaction between the two sides are quite frequent, it is limited to official activities.
Just like the actual combat training in Gusu City, it is all managed by the military, and the military will also hire beastmasters from the association to give lectures.
But in the final analysis, the Beastmaster Association is still an independent non-governmental organization. It is just a win-win cooperation with the Federation, and there is even some competition between them in private.
Of course, this does not mean that there is no private cooperation between members of both sides. After all, this is not an ignorant age, and it is normal for someone in the military to hire Luo Xiang to help solve some problems.
But what would it be like to bring him along?
"In fact, we were not going to bring a newcomer like you on this mission, but the president seemed to be very optimistic about you and specially added your place."
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Is this mission dangerous?"
Luo Xiang shrugged and said, "I guess so. At least it is still quite dangerous for beastmasters below level 4."
Bai Qi understood, but didn't care.
Since the president asked him to come out with Luo Xiang, it means he is still very confident about his safety. He probably just has his eyes on his unknown talent of breaking through the air.
That’s good, maybe I can get to a secret realm and pick up two or three legendary resources.
…
Tianyuan City.
If Songlin City still retains its ancient charm, then Tianyuan City, as the federal capital, is a thoroughly futuristic city.
Whether it is streets or buildings, or other moving or non-moving objects other than humans, almost all of them are made up of mechanical creations.
Bai Qi even saw a car transform into an Autobot to help his hostess carry packages.
He can drive fast, carry bags, and never get tired. So, Decepticons and Autobots are the best boyfriends?
Soon, the Crazy Owl landed in front of a huge helipad.
"Mr. Luo, we are here. "
The pilot opened the cabin door, saluted the two men again, and after waiting for them to get off the plane, he flew away again.
"Master Luo, thank you for taking such a long trip."
Seeing the two people getting off the plane, a man in formal attire immediately walked over from not far away.
This voice sounds so familiar.
Bai Qi looked over when he heard the voice and was shocked to find that the person who came to pick him up was Yi Yu, whom he had known before because of the Twin Towers, but he did not see Li Xusheng.
"I didn't expect that Minister Yi would come to pick me up in person. I'm really flattered."
Seeing this, Luo Xiang smiled faintly and said, "Is the Thirteenth Bureau very free recently?"
"It's OK. At least there is still time to pick up Master Luo."
Looking at the two people with smiles on their faces, Bai Qi suddenly felt the air become solemn.
Do these two have a grudge against each other?
Or are squinty-eyed people naturally hostile to their own kind?
However, Yi Yu was one of the directors of Bureau Thirteen after all, so he quickly changed the subject and looked at Bai Qi, saying, "Long time no see, Bai Qi. The rune puppet you traded to me last time was of great help to Bureau Thirteen."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Bai Qi nodded and responded perfunctorily.
Rune puppet?
Isn't that for teaching purposes? Is there something else hidden inside?
I feel like I've been cheated.
Bai Qi was secretly alert, and Luo Xiang said, "Take us to see the situation first."
Yi Yu nodded, turned around and took the two of them into another car.
"The distance is quite far. Please wait patiently for a while."
"It's okay, we're not in a hurry."
Luo Xiang shrugged indifferently, leaned back in a familiar manner, and just rested.
This is because I really don’t want to talk to Yi Yu.
Seeing that Luo Xiang, who usually liked to chatter non-stop, had become so silent today, Bai Qi basically figured out the relationship between the two and also kept silent.
Old Man Qin and Luo Xiang have the same attitude towards Yi Yu, so he naturally knows what attitude he should maintain.
Yi Yu was obviously aware of Luo Xiang's attitude, so he remained silent all the way until the car stopped in front of a huge metal door.
"We're here."
As soon as Yi Yu got out of the car, two men wearing Thirteenth Bureau uniforms came over.
"Team leader, the director is already urging us."
Yi Yu nodded and said, "It's okay, I will explain it to the director."
After saying that, Yi Yu looked at Luo Xiang and Bai Qi behind him and said, "Please follow me. The forces around that secret realm are too strong. We need to use the Starry Sky Gate to get in."
"Starry Sky Gate?"
Bai Qi was stunned and couldn't help feeling a little excited.
"Is it the starry sky gate that can teleport any creature or substance to the area covered by the web at will?!"
Yi Yu nodded and said, "That's right, but I don't know how far it can go. After all, I don't know much about the Department of Mechanics."
After getting Yi Yu's confirmation, Bai Qi's gaze towards the metal door in front of him suddenly changed.
Star Gate, a large-scale space teleportation device independently developed by humans, far exceeds any space-related treasures and space creatures discovered so far in terms of both teleportation scale and distance.
From a certain perspective, the reason why the Federation can maintain absolute control over such a large territory, in addition to Luowang's surveillance, is this Star Gate.
However, what kind of secret realm are they going to that requires the use of the Star Gate, and is it only to teleport the three of them?
Bai Qi quietly approached Luo Xiang and asked, "Brother Luo, can you tell me what secret place we are going to?"
"The Secret Realm of the First Emperor."
Luo Xiang replied calmly, but Bai Qi was shocked.
The First Emperor, the one who brought together humans who were originally fighting each other and completely changed the slave relationship between humans and ferocious beasts?
Are they going to the secret realm of the First Emperor now?
Luo Xiang said: "Don't be so excited. It's just speculation now. We can only be sure after we go in."
Hearing Luo Xiang's words, Yi Yu nodded and said, "That's right. Although the Thirteenth Bureau and the Association have invested a lot of manpower and resources, they still haven't entered the core area, so they invited Master Luo back."
"I just didn't expect that you, Bai Qi, would be here too. With two people with the ability to break through the sky, I think this problem can be easily solved."
Bai Qi felt embarrassed when he heard this. Although he did find the back door of the secret realm tower twice and used it to enter the secret realm, he knew very well that he did not have any talent for breaking through the air, so Yi Yu was overthinking it.
But this time, with Luo Xiang here, there shouldn't be any problems.
Although according to Luo Xiang himself, the talent of breaking through the air is sometimes effective and sometimes not, but considering that Luo Xiang has already cracked hundreds of secret towers, Bai Qi can at least be sure that the probability of Luo Xiang activating it is still quite high.
As the three were talking, the Starry Sky Gate was also activated. A light film like the starry sky slowly extended and soon covered the entire metal gate.
"Okay, both of you please come in."
Yi Yu turned sideways and motioned the two to go ahead, but Luo Xiang was obviously familiar with the route and went through without stopping at all.
Seeing Luo Xiang take the first step, Bai Qi immediately followed, and the moment he passed through the light film, Bai Qi found that he had arrived in another world.
There was not the slightest fluctuation that would occur during space teleportation, not even a single shake. Is the Federation's space teleportation technology already so powerful?
If he could learn it, he wouldn't have to contract a flying pet.
As soon as this thought flashed through Bai Qi's mind, he extinguished it himself.
The Star Gate is even more important than some core weapons. Even if he joined the Federation, he would have no chance to access it, not to mention that he is now a member of the association.
Instead of spending time on this, it would be easier to just get a space-type pet.
Alternatively, it is possible to find some space resources and cultivate one yourself.
However, as a student of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, he still wanted to learn...
