Chapter 1155: Chapter 843: Banquet at Hongmen

"This place is quite unique."

Tao Yu raised an eyebrow; the Extreme Ice City Development Zone is not like Starshine or Earth Dragon, which are just about picking up the ready-made; here, you find a hill and start from scratch, but the planning can be done directly according to the needs of the Pioneers.

The entire base’s perimeter is surrounded by a wall of alloy capsule rooms, with quite a few places equipped with autonomous defense modules.

The interior is also arranged quite neatly; the training field, helipad, mission center, and trade area are all distinct and separate.

"But there aren’t many Pioneers."

Tao Yu casually remarked while looking around.

Although Extreme Ice City also has its own Divination Master and can manufacture various tools,

the Extreme Ice City side at present has not used that master but rather used the traditional interference tools that Tao Yu has sensed before.

They just added some multiple misleads that Tao Yu could detect flaws in, aside from the interference.

Considering the environment here, if guessed correctly, this entire base itself has actually been set up as a trap aimed at himself!

"The main revenue here is farming, and this has been promoted for the past three years. Now, most Pioneers have been assigned autumn harvest tasks to the major agricultural districts of Da Song."

Wayne didn’t find it strange and commented casually.

The indigenous people cannot absorb Yuan Force, so they can only gather the crops for processing; ultimately, Pioneers must complete the operation.

This is actually the core utility of the value of the bottom-level Pioneers.

Bottom-level Pioneers are needed to harvest crops; to protect them, there must be gradual spiral upward development, ultimately forming the situation where even supreme powerhouses mostly rely on organizations and forces for sustenance.

The influence of a Catastrophe Level threat also stems from this.

But Wayne then looked slightly left and right and, with some hesitation, said,

"However, the number of people today is indeed a bit less. Perhaps a new fragment has fallen; I didn’t pay much attention to the basic farms."

Wayne’s tasks and business have nothing to do with this, so naturally, he doesn’t concern himself with these farming details.

Yuan Force is just for him to use as needed, regardless of how others grow it.

"Is this the Pioneer activity area? It’s indeed quite peculiar. This fragment itself should be from the agricultural era of the Current World from hundreds of years ago, but your town style is completely different."

Nie Jianli, since leaving the Soul Reaper World, has always been like a curious baby. Compared to the discomfort and silence of others, he is noticeably more lively.

Old Man Yamamoto, leaning on his cane, blinked lazily.

"Is there any difference? This old man doesn’t feel much has changed."

As an old thing living for over a thousand years, even though he keeps saying he wants to change, it’s clear it’s not something he can quickly adapt to.

In his eyes, both the situation of Da Song and this New Development Zone seem unimpressive. It’s unclear why Nie Jianli is so excited over here.

Meanwhile, Harribel and Grimmjow remained silent, merely fulfilling their duty as guards.

Grimmjow’s bad temper seems to have been tempered in front of Tao Yu.

Just at this moment, a gentle voice resounded from above the entire Development Zone,

"Welcome to all our guests. My apologies for not coming out to greet you sooner."

As they spoke, a rainbow seemed to form a carpet from the center of this town, extending across and arriving in front of Tao Yu and his group.

The rainbow shimmered with flowing light, as if guiding them over.

Tao Yu, daring enough owing to his skills, naturally led the group onto it without hesitation.

The few of them moved swiftly forward along the energy flow of the rainbow, like on the moving ground belt of an elevator.

"Actually, the choice of location is quite good; normally, an external Catastrophe Level threat indeed wouldn’t expect them to choose the combat site at the Development Zone’s most important stronghold..."

The high status of a Catastrophe Level is mainly due to its destructive power, which can easily destroy important areas and industries.

This is like they are willing to sacrifice the whole town for a foolproof plan!

The rumor about Dalvin’s Curse of Death’s Word involving a blood sacrifice of ordinary World Fragments is indeed not unfounded.

A willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

Moreover, besides sacrificing the town, there are almost only benefits.

If they need to reason with someone in the future, they can still shift the blame onto themselves, saying they instigated first.

Anyway, according to their plan, there will be no witnesses left by then.

"However, for them to arrange it this way, there might truly be a Saint backing from behind Extreme Ice City..."

The thought crossed Tao Yu’s mind.

To reason, you need the capital to do so. They must have a reason for making such preparations in advance.

Earth Dragon City apparently has a Saint on its surface.

It’s uncertain whether someone in Extreme Ice City has secretly defected to a certain force, or if they themselves are producing a New Saint.

Tao Yu’s mind was incredibly quick, pondering numerous things in an instant, while the group arrived at the town center, in front of a large castle distinct from the metallic capsule rooms.

This castle’s style is similar to the medieval period, but it’s made entirely of metal, with a faint aura of Yuan Force on it, belonging to an integrated Yuan Force object.

At the end of the rainbow, there was already a silhouette in a black tailcoat, looking quite gentlemanly but with a pale face.

Just standing there brought a sense of chilling cold and deathly stillness.
