<h4>Chapter 1278 - The Brothers Get Together</h4>


    Zhao Hai returned to the Space after sending Barlett and the others off. Laura and the others were currently on theirputers. They were looking for appropriates to choose. As it turns out, these unwanteds were put up for sale at fairly low prices. However, no one bought them. Operating suchs would need high investments. And even if great efforts were made, thes could only produce fruits and nt products. There weren’t many profits to them at all. Unless made for human habitation, there was no point to developing theses.


    In this case, why would anyone buy them? In the eyes of the families, they might as well use the money to make more battleships. The more battleships you have, the more power you can use, and the more benefits you can fight for.


    Because of this, Zhao Hai was assured that nobody wouldin if he were to take one of theses for himself. They might even be happy if he were to take them all off of their hands.


    When Laura and the others saw that Zhao Hai had arrived, they immediately waved towards him toe over. Zhao Hai walked over in front of arge screen. Disyed on the screen was a star map of the entire Machine Field. Mosts and meteorites were shown with white dots. These white dots were the uninhabitables. There were also meteorites ands that were red, which indicated that people were living in them. And then there were more than 300 meteorites ands that were green, these were thes that nobody wanted.


    As he scanned the star map, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but get stunned. He said, “The Machine Field has so many unimed habitables? I didn’t expect that.”


    However, Zhao Hai also noticed that theses were on the edge of the Machine Field - on the side far from the Cultivation Realm. Looking at this setup, Zhao Hai had a realization. Since theses were in the outskirts of the Machine Field, and even far from the Cultivation Realm, it was natural that the Machine Field wouldn’t expand towards them. If theses were close to the Cultivation Realm, then even if their environments weren’t good, people would still fight madly for them. This was because theses could be used as stopover stations for supplies andmodities going to and from the Cultivation Realm.


    Zhao Hai sat on the sofa as he turned his head to Laura and said, “Have you settled on which to choose?”


    Laura smiled and then she pointed towards therge screen. A red circle appeared on the screen, a in the middle of it.


    This ce was very far from the center of the Machine Field. It was also near to a meteorite belt. And in the vicinity of the were six white colored dots. It seems like these were the’s moons.


    The screen quickly changed its image, allowing Zhao Hai to have a careful look on the. From the star map, this was called Yalei 2. It was separated from the Machine Field by the meteorite belt. This meteorite belt wasn’t very dangerous, but it still blockedrge-scale ships from passing through it. The had six moons, named Ave 1 to 6. It was clear that this wasn’t very popr judging by how simple its name was.


    Then on the side of the screen was an introduction to Yalei 2. This can only be defined as a waste. The’s ratio betweennd to water was four to six. Land ounts for 4 while the oceans ount for 6.


    It must be said that thend of Yalei 2 was very huge. But because it was quite distant from any stars, the temperature of the was lower than normal. In the’snd, besides moss, there were extremely few nts that grew. Moreover, the’s seawater was too salty,pletely incapable of nurturing life. Therefore, the’s entire ocean was like the Dead Sea. A person could float on its surface without even moving.


    The Machine Field appraised Yalei 2 as a that’s not suitable for human housing. Only people with strong physique could survive in this ce. But even if someone wanted to invest in developing this, doing so would be close to impossible because the couldn’t be reached withrge-sized ships. Therefore, nobody wanted the. Its price was also astonishingly low. One could buy the for as low as seven million machine coins. In the Machine Field, seven million machine coins amounted to a single small battleship. It can be said that the was priced the same as a small ship.


    But even though it was dirt cheap, nobody bought it. In their minds, at least a small ship had some usespared to the waste.


    However, Zhao Hai understood Laura’s intention upon seeing the. Yalei 2 was indeed suitable for him. First of all, Zhao Hai wasn’t worried about the’s environment. There were plenty of nts in the Space that could emit heat. Once they’re nted on the, it wouldn’t be long before the’s temperature rose. And as long as the temperature rises, icebergs frozen for thousands of years would melt, diluting the ocean water. This will reduce the water’s salt content, allowing for animals to live in it.


    Although Yalei 2 was far from a star, this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t receive light. nts could still perform photosynthesis with the amount of light hitting the. And the increasing temperature would only benefit nts on the. When the timees, Yalei 2 will be greatly improved.


    As for the sixs outside Yalei 2, bases could be constructed there, providing the with a of security. Additionally, the meteorite belt that was close to the could be a shield for the.


    Zhao Hai understood that he would pay a high price in order to transform Yalei 2. However, he didn’t really intend to use it as a base. Actually, all of this investment was for the Ashley Family.


    Even before they met Zhao Hai, the Cultivation Realm and the Devil Realm were already coveting the Machine Field. If the two worked together, then the Machine Field would be hard-pressed to win. Margaret already asked Zhao Hai to help the Ashley Family when such times arrive. And since Zhao Hai can’t send them to the Space, then he could only send them to Yalei 2.


    Zhao Hai was very satisfied with the, he nodded and said, “Good, let’s take this. Even if we can’t request for it, we’ll buy it. However, we need to set up a transmission formation on the. Although it’s just for cover, it might be useful in the future.”


    Laura nodded. Then Zhao Hai had Meg invite Merine and Green over to discuss how to transform Yalei 2.


    Green and Merine’s current state was very good. They have started to practice cultivation methods and it has brought great results. Although theirbat strength didn’t increase by much, it was already good that their lifespan increased. And the longer they live, the more they can cultivate.


    At this time, the two were either studying magic formations or doing something with the Hundred Spirit Tree. They also grow a few nts on the side to entertain themselves. They were living quite leisurely.


    The two already understood that Zhao Hai was powerful enough that nobody can move him anymore. Therefore, they no longer have any worries.


    Zhao Hai told the two elders about the outside situation and the two immediately agreed. But now, they no longer needed to direct it outside. They can now do it from the Space. The grunt work would be taken care of by the Undead.


    After arranging these things, Zhao Hai had nothing else left to do other than releasing silver needles and have Cai’er control it towards Yalei 2.


    Zhao Hai brought Margaret to stroll around the Bone Symbol Camp or Dark Demon once in a while. However, they spent most of their days being busy. There’s just a lot of people who want to see them.


    Besides his hectic schedule, Zhao Hai was also waiting for news about his reward. And the Machine Field didn’t make him wait too long. Ten days after Zhao Hai returned to Dark Demon, Cadjo came to inform him to go to Machine Field to receive his reward.


    Zhao Hai took Margaret with him to Machine Field. But just as they arrived at the Ashley Family’s office building, Zhao Hai was surprised to see Xiong Li and the others there. It seems like they had already gone out of seclusion.


    When Xiong Li and the others came out of their seclusion, then immediately went to Machine Field. And upon knowing that Zhao Hai had returned, they came looking for him.


    Zhao Hai immediately weed his brothers to his room. Then he scanned through Xiong Li and the others before he nodded and said, “Good, all of you became stronger. Hehe. It seems like you’ve gained a lot during your seclusion.”


    Xiong Liughed and said, “Kid, you’re the one who’s strong. You’re making us lose face. But we did be stronger. I’m now more confident in going to the Six Realms Battlefield.”


    Zhao Haiughed and said, “Why are you thinking about the Six Realms Battlefield when it hasn’t been decided yet? You’re worrying too early.”


    Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Dongfang Yu couldn’t help but frown as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, don’t you know? Team Leader Ma notified us that we have five days to prepare after receiving the reward. After that, we will enter the Six Realms Battlefield.”


    Zhao Hai was shocked, he didn’t receive this news. Zhao Hai looked at his brothers and said, “When did Team Leader Ma tell you this? Why am I not informed?”


    Dongfang Yu replied, “He informed us when we came out. But since you haven’t closed up, I believe Team Leader Ma nned to tell you when you arrive here.”


    Zhao Hai nodded and said, “That’s possible. Right, I have some good news. I found our base. Come and take a look.” Then he took out hisputer.


    Zhao Hai turned hisputer on and then opened the star map. After that, he pointed towards Yalei 2 and said, “This is Yalei 2. This is where I n to have our base constructed.”


    Xiong Li and the others immediately checked the information regarding the. But as they read through the material, they couldn’t help but get terrified. It can be said that Yalei 2 was truly a bad.


    After reading the information, Xiong Li looked at Zhao Hai in confusion as he asked, “Little Hai, is this a joke? What are we going to do on that? Didn’t you read the information? That is not a ce for human habitation.”


    Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “It’s fine. I already thought about what to do with it. As long as we take care of this, it’ll be ours in the future. I already asked Margaret for help along with other people. They will transform this once we head to the Six Realms Battlefield. It should be a different ce once we return.”


    These words didn’t change what Xiong Li and the other felt. This was because the information on theputer about Yalei 2 was just too bad. In their minds, it would still be a trash after its transformation.


    Seeing their expression staying the same, Zhao Hai lowered his voice and said, “Actually, Yalei 2 is just a cover. Our real base wouldn’t be there. Come, let me show you.”


    As soon as they heard Zhao Hai, the group immediately gathered. They knew that Zhao Hai was about to use space magic. Seeing that everyone had gathered, Zhao Hai smiled, then with an intention white light covered the group. The next moment, the group appeared on an ind in the Endless Desert.


    When the white light vanished, Xiong Li and the others began to look around them. Upon sensing the environment, they couldn’t help but be dumbfounded. This ind was very good. It was much betterpared to other ces that Xiong Li and the others had been to.


    Moreover, since Xiong Li and the others had experienced the environment of the Cultivation Realm, they knew that the spiritual density on the ind was on par with the Cultivation Realm. This caused them to be startled.


    While Xiong Li and the others were curiously looking around, Zhao Hai said, “Brothers, I need to tell you this in advance. You can only do your activities within the ind. You must not go beyond the outside shield. Otherwise, even gods wouldn’t be able to save you.”


    Xiong Li and the others turned to look at the horizon and saw that there was a bright yellow shield surrounding the ind. Seeing this, Xiong Li couldn’t help but ask, “Little Hai, how did you find this ce? What’s outside the shield?”


    Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Brothers, try to guess.” The group shook their heads. The Machine Field was toorge and they had only been here for a few years. Moreover, the ind’s environment was too special. They don’t even know where to start guessing.


    Seeing their response, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “It’s a famous ce. However, people only know about what’s outside the ind. Actually, nobody knows about this ce.”


    The brothers got more curious upon hearing Zhao Hai. Seeing his brothers staring at him, Zhao Hai stopped making them guess as he said, “Outside this ind is the Endless Desert. The ce we’re in now is the center of the desert.”


    Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Xiong Li and the others were startled. Then they looked at each other, visibly shocked. Xiong Li turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, is the Endless Desert you’re talking about the same desert that is a forbidden area in the Machine Field? The ce that produces Ancient Eternal Sand? That desert?”


    Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Where else could you see a vast desert in the World of Cultivation? We’re at the center of it.”


    Li Kuangren eximed, “Impossible. If we really are at the center of the Endless Desert, then how did you find this ce?”


    But Zhao Hai just smiled, “You don’t have to worry about how I found out about this ce. So how is it? Are you satisfied with our base?”


    - I was wondering if ‘meteorites’ were supposed to be ‘moons’. But the characters used for them, 陨石, literally means ‘falling stone/rock’.
