Unity, the True Dragon Descends (Seeking Monthly Votes)
After leaving the office, Chen Chu did not return to the dormitory but went to the control room located within the base.
As the base for the Exotic Beast Battlefield, its layout was very different from that of the school. There were no reading rooms or libraries, and the only way to understand the outside world was through a single line.
To connect with the core intelligence database of Eastern Summer and the Sky Universe Think Tank, one could only do so from the control room.
Soon, Chen Chu passed through several security checkpoints and arrived at a control room resembling a large computer lab, where a teacher was boredly sipping tea.
Chen Chu politely greeted him before taking a seat in front of a light screen computer.
After identity verification and permission checks, the screen quickly refreshed to display dozens of options.
Compared to before, the information Chen Chu could see now was much more extensive. For instance, when he clicked on the technique category, a dense list of thousands of technique directories popped up.
Among them were the top-level secret classics.
Of course, these top-level classics only had names and brief overviews; to cultivate and learn them required an application, which was more troublesome than advanced techniques.
Skipping the technique option, Chen Chu clicked on the runes.
Instantly, the page switched, and over a hundred complete rune images along with thousands of incomplete rune images appeared on the large screen, each representing a type of "power."
When Chen Chu's mouse hovered over a "Mountain" rune, the image instantly magnified, revealing its intricate internal structures.
It appeared that this "Mountain" character was composed of hundreds, even thousands, of twisted strokes, making it extremely profound and complex.
"Indeed, they're all the same," Chen Chu remarked while gazing at the rune images, his eyes flickering.
Having condensed both incomplete and complete runes before, he could sense some mysterious aura emanating from those rune images even through the screen.
However, compared to the divine might dragon elephant condensed within him, these runes seemed much simpler, even the more than a hundred complete ones.
This was because the official release contained only basic runes.
Some of these basic runes had considerable power, some merely stirred a light breeze, while others, when condensed, could prevent nightmares, containing an array of strange powers.
Even the incomplete ones contained special powers.
In the informational descriptions, although many basic and incomplete runes appeared weak, sometimes combining several of the weakest runes could unleash terrifying power.
It was akin to the basic codes of a computer—individually they seemed useless, but once compiled, they could turn into fully functional and powerful "software."
After eagerly browsing through the rune data for a while, Chen Chu logged out and clicked on the information section, opening the introduction about Simon.
He had always been curious about the two federal empires that were on par with Eastern Summer, specifically their cultivation environment and conditions.
As for why he clicked on Simon first, it was naturally because Luo Fei was planning to transfer there.
However, when he opened the cultivation information for the Simon Empire, Chen Chu's expression turned to one of surprise; his mouse kept scrolling, and he quickly opened the information for the Northern Frost Empire.
Before long, a complete federal cultivation structure appeared before Chen Chu's eyes.
The three great empires, or rather the entire Human Race Federation, revolved around these three empires and were divided into three paths: true martial, gene, and mechanical fusion.
Yes, three paths.
In contrast to the pure martial cultivation of Eastern Summer and several other major countries that followed, Northern Frost adopted the gene path that fused with exotic beasts and even giant beast genes.
There, warriors would initially cultivate special techniques, integrating exotic beast genes, and continuously improve their fusion compatibility.
