I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1944 - 1324: Instant Happenings (Part
This time, the anomaly occurring in Tianhe is even more ’serious’ than over a hundred years ago. In his memory, Tianhe has changed twice.
The Tianhe of old was in a ’frozen’ state, like a crystallized cosmic glacier; the tribe folks told him this. By the time he was a child, Tianhe had already thawed, marking its first change, which he didn’t get to witness.
The second change was over a hundred years ago when the scenes inside Tianhe lit up. Now, it’s the third change.
"Tianhe, so Xiyun, you’re interested in this too? If you’d like to know more, you can always visit the academy..."
"No." Xiyun very straightforwardly interrupted the academy representative. It’s not that he couldn’t go, but going there would inevitably come with a heap of trouble, which Xiyun least wants to deal with.
The academy representative deeply regrets it but still doesn’t plan to give up on seeking the legendary being.
No need to fantasize about contacting the other party; just understanding a little of their intel is enough.
Xiyun has direct contact with the powerful figure and even obtained unique experiences, allowing him to become the strongest in the Tianyun Mountain territory, possibly even one of the continent’s strongest.
And this is after nothing significant occurred in the last decade. Xiyun hasn’t gone all out according to intelligence.
From when Xiyun gained fame until now, he has always been at his peak. His ageless body has been coveted by many, but as one of the continent’s strongest, others maintain hidden desires.
Anyone who reached out has been killed by Xiyun.
"You want to find that powerful figure, I have no objections. Every year, many people entertain such thoughts; however, the current change in Tianhe makes me uneasy. If you wish for me to lead the way, you’d have to wait at least until the change ends."
Xiyun can say this because he knows that ninety-nine percent of those attempting to seek encounters can’t even enter the Thunderstorm Area’s outskirts. Simply feeling the strong pressure stops them cold.
Xiyun can lead his tribe there due to confidence in their abilities, as for the secrets of the Thunderstorm Area... Well, it depends if one can overcome the psychological barrier.
Those with malice are doomed; those without it may proceed.
"Regarding Tianhe’s matters, there’s no need for Xiyun to worry so much." The academy representative planned to disclose some secrets about Tianhe.
Though Xiyun looks young, he’s actually an over two-hundred-year-old monster, not easily fooled. The academy collaborates with Xiyun’s tribe, but the relationship is merely cooperative.
Wanting him to guide us for free is not wishing to exploit his knowledge; it’s just foolish.
"Tell me." Xiyun showed interest.
The academy representative began narrating Tianhe’s stories, all starting from when Tianhe thawed; it was then that ’Heavenly People’ appeared on their planet.
Initially, those arriving here were called Heavenly People, but as the continent developed, they were not that special anymore.
They are just people from other planets; some Heavenly People are strong, some are weaker than even some intermediate academy students. Exploring outer space is not difficult.
Only the travel distance is excessively long, unlike sea navigation which can reach the destination in days or months.
Space travel can take decades without reaching the destination. However, it has benefits, such as exceptionally fast ship speeds.
Within the planet, ships adaptable to space conditions have speeds increased by at least half. Better ships see a higher speed multiplier.
The continent has dispatched a Vanguard Team, establishing over a dozen outer space routes in over two hundred years.
Originally taking decades, now reduced to years or months, progress owing much to the benefits of exchange.
"Those spots of light we see in the sky, are all populated places?"
Some tribe elders were surprised, but Xiyun didn’t find it unexpected. He’d seen ships flying in the sky before. What the academy representative said simply supplemented his existing understanding.
"Not entirely, beyond Tianhe... how to say, Tianhe is a very dangerous place. It’s not somewhere we interact." The academy representative said more about Tianhe.
There are many New World Hundred Clans, but not all can participate in the Tianhe War.
More New World people are still struggling on their Mother Star.
Unexpectedly, people from their planet are also the type struggling on the Mother Star. Their contact with Heavenly People is due to proximity to Tianhe.
Thus, some Heavenly People use this planet as a resting and resupply station.
The Hundred Clans participating in the Tianhe War are strong, yet people from this planet can’t even rank as cannon fodder among them. There are formidable strongmen, but that alone isn’t enough; they’d need ’ships’ and fleets capable of joining the Tianhe War.
And the ships they have now are just basic.
Xiyun asked, "Why fight with Tianhe people?"
"Many reasons, but the core reason is for profit."
The academy representative spoke truthfully. He wanted to say more, but under Xiyun’s gaze felt pressured to remain concise.
Over the years, the academy has frequently interacted with ’Heavenly People’ and gathered considerable information about Tianhe.
During Tianhe’s thawing, Hundred Clans organized a hunt, a festive hunt ending in greed and death.
"Haha, doesn’t that mean only one reason exists?" Having gained plenty of information on Tianhe, Xiyun was in a good mood, standing up to say, "Let’s check Tianhe tomorrow."
Tianhe’s shimmering radiance remained bright; the academy representative followed Xiyun outside, saying, "Tianhe is far from us; distant scenery might actually be past events when we see them."
"So, the Tianhe scenes we see now have already occurred or concluded?"
The academy representative hesitated, then shook his head, "I can’t be certain; normally, outer space’s distant sceneries seen are months or even years past events.
But if encountering spatial distortion phenomena, distant scenery can be viewed instantly, and many strange occurrences surround Tianhe..."
Because of these reasons, the academy representative couldn’t confidently assert their current view reflects past changes months or years ago.
What if spatial distortion reveals present changes?
"Outer space sure is exciting." Xiyun marveled genuinely but still lacked the desire to explore outer space.
Perhaps he’d consider it when he felt less burdened in the future. For now? It’s too soon for him.
Maybe when the tribe gradually develops into city regions, he might attempt it, but definitely not now.
"It’s indeed splendid, but very dangerous too."
Xiyun stared at the sky: "Looks like something’s falling."
"Huh?" The academy representative, unclear on what Xiyun saw, looked where he pointed, seeing nothing at first but then widening his eyes as a red dot appeared in the sky’s subtle distortion.
This red dot fell rapidly into the depths of Tianyun Mountain, lighting up the night with a mushroom cloud and a strong tremor swiftly reaching them.
"... This, this is??" The academy representative, sweating heavily, believed the falling object struck from Tianhe’s side, implying Tianhe’s current anomaly is happening in real-time.
Soon, several more dot quickly descended from the sky, falling outside the Tianyun Mountain area; the resulting impact felt weak here yet unsettling.
Things falling indicated their planet was also affected!
"Want to come look?"
"This... alright!" The academy representative agreed through gritted teeth. Being assigned here by the academy meant he was quite capable.
Moreover, now acting alongside Xiyun gave no reason not to investigate; he also wished to represent the academy in understanding the crazed powerful figure.
Additionally, things falling from Tianhe caught attention; if it’s a disaster, the academy must be informed quickly, then the entire continent is to be notified for coping strategies.
