Chapter 270 (1/2)

No one had expected Raven 12345 to leave such an easter egg in the planet that she created. Of course, that crazy goddess had probably forgotten that she placed it there since she did not mention it to Hao Ren when he talked about the big migration. Now, the planet came alive with the influx of intelligent beings. As long as you were look up at the sky, no matter which part of the planet you were in, the words would appear within your vision. Almost instantly, Hao Ren realised that there was something even more sinister: You could not ignore the words. The moment the broadcast started, those words were firmly etched into your vision. Heck, even before the introduction began, Raven 12345’s watermark was already plastered all over your face…

“Welcome to the new intelligent beings inhabiting this planet. New inhabitants detected as foreign beings. Switching to Introductory Guide Number 2. This planet, under the majority of circumstances, was created by the great and magnificent imperial commander, goddess and apprentice planetary sculptor, Raven 12345.

“The planet’s average radius is 9,000 kilometres. For unit of surface gravity, please measure it yourself. For planetary rotation cycle, please calculate it yourself. Galactic parameters, forgotten but, it is probably stable. The galactic map is available in the creator’s suite within the planet’s core however, it seems to be password protected. All in all, the planet is beautiful and perfectly habitable. It is in harmony with the celestial bodies nearby so, there should not be any cosmic disasters.

“The planet is equipped with an atmosphere and ecosystem that is suitable for Type IV carbon-based life forms. For basic tectonic parameters, please see Appendix I. For natural resources and reserves, please see Appendix II. For a guide on extracting resources, I have forgotten. Nevertheless, I believe that any race capable of interstellar travel is capable of finding it out themselves. Following this will be the various parameters set during the planet’s creation. Disclaimer: I bear no responsibility in notifying you of any subsequent natural changes to the planet.

“That is all.

“From your great and magnificent goddess, Raven 12345.

“P.S. If there is any problem regarding the planet’s quality, please bear with it using your faith and courage. This planet is not registered in the Imperial Planetary Database as it is a personal project. Frankly, it is not possible to cover everything, so bite me.”

Raven 12345’s broadcast had mostly ended. What followed was a series of data about the planet’s resources and parameters. At the same time, a multi-signal transmission reverberated throughout the atmosphere. This signal was also a broadcast of the planet’s parameters. By then, Hao Ren was already squatting in a corner, pretending to be looking at some stones alongside Lily, who was actually looking at stones. Hilda’s voice only broke through to him after a couple of tries. “Umm… A-are you okay?”

“I’m fine. Just feel like gutting someone right now. But, I can’t defeat her.” Hao Ren lamented. “…It has taken me so much effort to pull of something big like this… Can’t she just let me finish it properly… This scene… will forever be etched in the annals of your people’s history…”

Hilda looked blankly towards the beach and found that many of her people had only just recovered from their stupor. However, there were a few experts who did not dwell on the stunning heavenly message, and quicky realised the importance of the broadcast. They swiftly called for their helpers or roused their colleagues, who were still dumbstruck to get their recording tools. They then began taking down all the important notes before the broadcast ended.

“Have a look.” Hilda pulled Hao Ren to his feet. “This thing is of great importance to us. You may think that the presentation was too casual… but for us… it is another gift.”

Hao Ren gave a stunned, “Oh”. He never thought that the elves would intently take down notes of Raven 12345’s super casual broadcast. It was not until much later that Hilda would tell him how the information helped the Aerymians pass their first winter in their new home without incident. As this migration was done on such a short notice, aside from the data the MDT had from its last cursory scan, there were no further detailed information about the planet. The elves would have taken years, or even decades to even start developing their industries again and to understand the nature of the planet. Raven 12345 had however saved them a potentially fatal trouble.

Hao Ren spent the next few days on the beach’s front base with the elves. He was there until all of the Aerymians and materials were sent over by the transport fleet in orbit, thus completing the Great Migration. He and his motly crew were of great help during their stay. Lily and Y’zaks’ brute strength were more than welcomed in the ongoing work while Vivian’s blood magic saved many from the grisly fate of succumbing to the local pathogens. It also helped the Aerymian medical experts in their research of ways to combat and prevent infections from the native microbes as well as pathogens.

Once the treatment methods were sent back to research facilities on Darklight Isle, the introduction of vaccines and antibiotics were quickly made for the migrants. Therefore, the initial fear of local diseases were someone allayed.

Something did boggle Hao Ren’s mind; he was under the impression that vampires contributed more to plagues, poisons and the likes while Blood Magic was meant to be destructive. Vivian had also mentioned that other Blood Clan members were not particularly adept with healing magic. However, she was the odd one out with some rather impressive restorative abilities. Her blood magic could easily kill someone like the magic of any normal Blood Clan member yet, hers had a secondary ability—the ability to turn itself around and utilise its energies to heal her target.

Hoa Ren had to reconfirm with Vivian if any other vampires had such an ability, and Vivian was adamantly sure about it. The Blood Clan had no interests or intentions to heal anyone, and they even thumbed their nose at such unconventional magic. Vivian also mentioned that a few of her juniors were interested in learning her healing magic, but they soon found that their blood was poisonous, incapable of being transformed into life energies.

It was something almost beyond comprehension, but Hao Ren did witness Vivian resurrecting a dead elf with her blood.
