215 Chapter 215 : : Base (1/2)
Near the base...
Jiang Shuang was amazed to find such an amazing place inside the Misty Maze Forest
The natural topography of the base was itself protecting the region by separating it from the forest and it had its own unique atmosphere inside it
”If you are surprised by this then you have a lot to see,” Rex said as he flew to the base with him
When they both flew over the giant mountain like wall which was previously just irregular hills, a new world opened up in their sight
Rex took Jiang Shuang near the center of the region
Jiang Shuang was looking around with wide eyes, right now he was seeing something which made it hard for him to believe
He saw that several metallic puppets were building the infrastructure of the whole place
Some were carrying big iron block while some were removing trees to level the ground
In the time when Rex was not here, those working bots WB v1.0 and WB v2.0 have changed everything, a big part of the jungle inside the region got cleared and it was replaced by many different kinds of buildings
The whole place looked like it was a city with a brand new civilization, the thing that caught Jiang Shuang's attention most were the puppets
Even when he and Rex came to the region all the puppets ignored them and focused on their own work
”It's a shame that you have to see the base in just its initial developing state, earlier I didn't have any plan to merge organizations that's why I didn't make any preparation for you in advance, that aside what do you want to ask first,” Rex said when he noticed that Jiang Shuang was looking around curiously
Jiang Shuang was startled by Rex's words when he looked around many questions arose in his mind like... what are these puppets? what's that building? what is that giant castle?... etc but he took a deep breath and calmed himself down first
”I want to see Shadow Lord,” Jiang Shuang said after suppressing his curiosity
”Haha... straight to the business? okay then” Rex smiled then turned into his bloodline form
Jiang Shuang subconsciously retreated when he saw the sudden changes in Rex's body, his hairs turned white as his height increased then his pupils turned red
”Presenting myself, Shadow Lord,” Rex said as he looked at him with a smile
Jiang Shuang kept looking at Rex for a while without speaking
”Don't think that much, I just didn't want to expose my real identity and think about it if I had told you that I am a Spirit Alchemist, Spirit Array Master and also a Spirit Artifact Refiner then would you believe it?” Rex asked with a smile
Jiang Shuang was shocked, he did think that the arrays on the buildings and these puppets may be made by the mysterious Shadow Lord just like how he made that business card but what he didn't expect was that Ye Tian and Shadow Lord was the same person
”May I ask how many people are active here in this base?” Jiang Shuang asked, his main purpose for coming here was to check the potential of the Frozen Flame organization and decide if he should merge or not
When Rex thought about this question then the image of the baby beast and mother beast came to his head
”If you count by head then there are 10 but if you count by body then there are 3” Rex answered after counting the six head of mother beast and three heads of the baby beast with him
”???” (Jiang Shuang)
Jiang Shuang wanted to ask again but then he saw Rex turning around to pick up a little white creature that came running towards him
”Oh.. how's my pretty boy” Rex picked him gently but he was surprised when he carefully looked at the baby beast
The baby beast now had two small white wings coming out of his back and his eyes were also a little different, his pupils now had golden outline around them which looked like a golden ring was used as a decoration to his eyes but there was something more eye catching on him than that, Rex noticed that some golden marks and patterns appeared on his back but they just looked like an unfinished tattoo
'Looks like the mutations still going on... it's somewhat strange' (Rex)
”This... Master Ye, what is this beast?” Jiang Shuang backed off when he saw the baby beast
