?Chapter 751: Chapter 679: The Nearby World Chapter 751: Chapter 679: The Nearby World A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier had been fancifully modified with all sorts of magical touches, even with scaffolds set up on the deck, layer upon layer, reaching at least six or seven stories high.


    This combination of shantytown and aircraft carrier created a somewhat peculiar aesthetic.


    With the addition of the aircraft carrier’s hangar space below, the entire ship exuded a strong sense of livelihood.


    Here, besides the communication equipment installed, there was also a mission hall on the first layer of the deck.


    However, compared to the mission halls in the Development Zones and the Current World, this one on the aircraft carrier was much smaller, resembling a little tavern.


    However, because it was linked through radio in conjunction with a Wish Power Device, despite a delay of a day or two, the intelligence gathered here was quite comprehensive.


    It was convenient for Pioneers who received exploration missions here to stay updated without returning.


    ...


    After all, the journey back and forth for an ordinary Pioneer took an exceedingly long time.


    Tao Yu ordered a rum in this tiny tavern and sat beside, sipping while browsing some summarized intelligence materials.


    “Wow, a Saint has arrived...”


    Tao Yu looked at the intelligence, not particularly surprised.


    The incident with Tianchengzi could be said to be the most significant event near the Earth Dragon City recently, even since the establishment of the New Development Zone!


    The simultaneous downfall of five Catastrophe Level individuals was indeed a massive blow.


    It was only because the impact was distributed among five Catastrophe Levels that it did not devastate a family like the Suns instantly.


    It was no surprise that Saint Ou himself came from Earth Dragon City.


    “Too bad, I still don’t have a substantial concept of Saints...”


    Although Tao Yu knew of Saints, and knew the Xing Family had one.


    The major conflict between the Xing Family and the Suns was that the little rich woman’s great-grandfather from the Suns, a Supreme Elder, had nearly reached the level of a Saint.


    With the Suns possessing their own Sacred Object heritage, their reputation was also formidable.


    The second and third families before were dominated by the downfall or breakthrough failures of their own experts.


    This time, it was the Suns’ turn.


    As for the combat power of Saints, Tao Yu didn’t have a clear concept yet, but like the World Breakers, Saints represented a new tier with special privileges solely from the World Will!


    They could govern a region, actively communicate with the World Will to gain some conveniences, and even request special privileges.


    Unlike the Catastrophe Level’s direct destructive power, Saints represented a change in status.


    “In this instance, the World Will is not personified but more like an autonomous program or even a system.


    Saints are, in essence, those who have higher access privileges in this system.”


    The fact that such changes could occur in the World Will was also a side testament to the power of Saints.


    Thus, supporting local forces was very important.


    “No wonder there are missions involving vaccines and antibodies here, and even the laboratories of Dragon Heaven City got involveda?€”probably out of apprehension.”


    As for the unknown world next to Konoha, it was generally known to not be part of Eartha?€”it appeared very desolate, and although the air was barely breathable, it wasn’t great, filled with a type of monster called Cockroach People.


    Nevertheless, since it bordered Konoha and the pioneers were also worried about the zombie virus infecting ninjas and such, special reminders had been given for visits.


    Thus, that world mainly used the neighboring Konoha’s World Barrier for containment, and because of the barrier, it hadn’t stirred up much trouble.


    “Cockroach People...


    really, anything strange can be found in the Abyss.


    According to the data, the physical capacity of an individual Cockroach Person isn’t weak.


    There might be quite a few of them...”


    One World Fragment itself is also very vast, and the fact that the pioneer found so many World Fragments in two years was quite commendable; it wasn’t possible to carefully explore inside, so the numbers of these Cockroach People remained uncertain.


    “The style here is actually quite like the Underworld too...”


    Tao Yu thought of the Goblins in the State Capital and the Aliens in Starshine City; truly, the pot calling the kettle black.


    “Good thing there aren’t any Aliens here combination of Aliens and Cockroach People and then infecting with mutant zombie viruses, I guess the scene would be pretty interesting...”


    While Tao Yu was browsing the intelligence, he suddenly sensed the light dimming ahead.


    He looked up to see a tan-skinned woman with a scar on her face standing here, agile in stance.


    This woman was clad in leather armor.


    Although the scar detracted from her beauty slightly, she still had a rather good figure, with the edges of her leather armor somewhat dented and her skin glossy.


    The reason Tao Yu had only noticed her when she got close was mainly because she was a bit too weak, hence not marked by him.


    However, this ‘weak’ was relative.


    After Tao Yu noticed her, he could generally gauge her to be around the level of a Senior Partner, based on her muscles, movements, and breathing.


    The division of partnership levels in Earth Dragon State was not much different from Starshine Company.


    She was undeniably superior among common pioneers.


    “Are you just starting to fill in your information now?


    I heard you want to go to the Land of Fire?


    Our team is headed there too, care to team up?”


    The woman glanced at the material Tao Yu was looking at and casually asked...


    a?€”a?€”
