Chapter 618: Chapter 392: The Abyss of Scorch Marks

After taking a few steps from the elevator, Ji Xinghuo felt a slight heaviness under his feet; Black Ring Star’s gravity was somewhat greater than Earth’s.

"It should be about 1.3 times Earth’s gravity."

This level of gravity was not much of an impact for Ji Xinghuo, who adjusted to it almost instantly.

The air of Black Ring Star contained oxygen, but less than 5%; ordinary Earth people would certainly find breathing here difficult.

However, Ji Xinghuo had long since shed his dependence on oxygen, and, wearing the "Light Ring," he needed no oxygen at all.

He looked around him.

This was the base station of the space elevator on Black Ring Star, located at the North Pole. A town had been built around the space elevator, not too large in scale—it spanned less than ten kilometers, most of it within the scope of electromagnetic induction, known as the "Arctic Transfer Station."

A huge half-sphere dome covered the entire town like an inverted bowl.

Outside the transparent dome was a frozen world.

Endless cold winds howled, white glaciers stretched to the horizon, and a red sun hung in the sky, bringing none of its warmth.

Inside the dome, however, the place was bustling. Between buildings no more than five or six stories high, numerous mutants were coming and going, various mounts and vehicles moved along the streets, and from time to time, transport planes took off, disappearing into the vast snow and ice beyond the dome.

Every few minutes, the space elevator descended from the sky or ascended into space.

Ji Xinghuo mounted a Branch Horn Cloud Deer and took a half-tour of the Arctic Transfer Station. His electromagnetic induction scanned the surroundings, gaining an initial understanding of the place.

He picked out a shop and went in.

This shop offered a variety of goods—weapons, armor and potions, while also purchasing Alien Species treasures; they dealt with almost everything and were of medium size within the entire Arctic Transfer Station; their business was neither good nor bad.

His electromagnetic induction noticed that customers frequently went from an inconspicuous corner to the back of the shop for private communications with the shopkeeper.

Obviously, information trade was also their business.

Such local snakes must be well-informed and also dealt in stolen goods and illegal transactions.

"Sir."

Ji Xinghuo entering immediately caught the attention of the shopkeeper.

The owner was a member of the Hui Clan, not the stealthy Hui but a common Crimson Hui seen in the Star Realm, with a human torso and snake body, fire-red scales covering everything from the waist down, stretching over four meters in length, and possessing arms—its crimson eyes were filled with shrewdness.

In an instant, Calula discerned that this Deserted Person who had walked in was a fifth-rank powerhouse, and among the fifth rank, he was at the absolute top.

His keen intuition told him that this stranger was extremely dangerous!

Thus, he immediately switched to an eager smile.

But to Ji Xinghuo, the smile seemed somewhat creepy, and exchanging a glance with the narrow snake eyes, Ji Xinghuo realized the shopkeeper had good judgment; no wonder he could run an information trade at the Arctic Transfer Station.

"It’s my first time on Black Ring Star," Ji Xinghuo got straight to the point, not at all worried that the shopkeeper would dare take advantage of his newbie status to play foul.

As he spoke, he flashed his identity card briefly before putting it away.

"Sir, then you’ve come to the right place," Karak became even more enthusiastic, his forked tongue hissing, he introduced himself, "My name is Calula, and I’m honored to be of service to you. What do you need?"

A moment later.

Ji Xinghuo exited the shop’s entrance, very satisfied.

Calula was indeed the local snake; not only did he have an in-depth knowledge of Black Ring Star, but his channels of information were extensive.

Introduced by Calula, Ji Xinghuo selected a few hunting areas suitable for himself and bought a set of equipment specifically designed for the geographical environment and creatures of Black Ring Star. Even though it cost tens of thousands of True Dragon Coins, it was worth it.

Without wasting a moment, Ji Xinghuo, along with his Branch Horn Cloud Deer, boarded a transport plane.

The transport plane was chartered by him; there were no other passengers.

"Whew whew..."

The transport plane soared slowly, accelerated, passing through the dome and the vast snowstorm, and soon left the Arctic Circle, rapidly heading towards the equator in the upper tens of thousands of meters.

Ji Xinghuo observed the outside through the cabin window.

White glaciers joined with tall mountain ranges, and as the latitude decreased, the temperature rose and vegetation began to cover more ground, lush and vibrant.

No matter where on Black Ring Star, one could see in the distant sky a gigantic black wall, like a rainbow magnified a billion times, spanning the Sky Region, descending to the ends of the world.

The closer to the equator, the larger that wall appeared in the view, filling it with a sense of oppression.

The climate of the mid-latitude areas was relatively stable.

But in the equatorial region, the environment began chaotic and disordered, with frequent volcanic activity. One second, it could be clear skies, and in the next, torrential winds and rainstorms; the land was dotted with startling giant pits, the result of satellite debris impacts.

Meteors streaked across the sky; even during the day, their fiery tails were visible as they broke away from the planet’s ring.

The auto-piloted transport plane didn’t dare to get close to the planet’s ring.

More than a thousand kilometers from the equator, the plane landed, letting Ji Xinghuo off.

"This godforsaken place..."

Ji Xinghuo looked at the charred forest around him as though it had been struck by meteors, shaking his head.

It was only the surface appearance.

Nearing the equator, he found that the magnetic field of Black Ring Star was also chaotic, being in an extremely unstable state.

This would definitely affect him; the Rotating Magnetic Field, Electrostatic Field, and Thunderbolt Hand would all require more Concentration when used, especially when releasing Lightning with Spiritual Energy, as range and accuracy were both disrupted and hard to master.

Fortunately, it wasn’t a significant problem.

Ji Xinghuo had already changed into the newly purchased Combat Armor on the transport plane, which was mainly manufactured using technology, integrating Aether techniques, equivalent to the Superpower Three Stars.
