* Whoosh ~ *
Xia Fei quickly retracted his arm and saw a red dot on his wrist, as if he had been bitten by a force.
At this moment, the strange door in front of him suddenly opened, revealing a strange space inside.
"Man-made space?" Yuan was slightly startled.
Originally, the top of this tower was at most a hundred square meters, but what appeared in front of Xia Fei was a huge botanical garden that was over ten thousand square meters. There were many unknown plants growing in it, and there was even a simulated sun in the sky for photosynthesis.
It was obvious that this place had been modified by the Law of Space.
"It's out! Xia Fei's DNA test report, "Old Man Fuchen, who was left on the Silver Spirit, said hurriedly.
A long message was quickly transmitted to Fuchen's terminal, and the screen kept refreshing with all kinds of words and data.
"If Xia Fei finds out that you investigated his DNA data, he might fall out with you," Fuchen's personal Soul Bind said.
It turned out that everything was arranged beforehand. Fuchen already knew that Xia Fei needed to extract his DNA when he reached the central area of the tower. As for why this test report was sent to Fuchen immediately, it was his own secret.
Fuchen shrugged. "That can't be helped. I'm too curious about this kid, and I won't be able to eat or sleep in peace if I don't find out how he developed his personality today."
The report was rather complicated and probably had a few million words. Fuchen received the information and started reading from the beginning. He held a cup of tea in his hand as if he was reading an interesting novel.
In the tower, Xia Fei walked along the path into the botanical garden. On both sides were square pieces of flat land. The area was not big, and the plants were completely different. It was like someone's botanical laboratory.
"Did Fuchen ask you to come?" A voice suddenly came from afar.
Xia Fei raised his head and saw a short old man sitting on a round, levitating saucer. This old man had grayish-white skin and was not even half a meter tall, like a child who had not grown up yet. There were only a few sparse strands of hair on his head, and his face was full of wrinkles.
"That's right. Fuchen asked me to come and get something. May I know who you are?" Xia Fei asked very politely.
"Call me Black Orchid. Follow me." The old man stared at Xia Fei for a while before leading him deeper into the garden.
I think I was pricked by something when I came in, Xia Fei wondered.
Black Orchid smiled and said, "Don't mind it. I'm just extracting your DNA. If there's something special about your DNA that I can use to cultivate plants, then a new type of plant will be born."
Xia Fei furrowed his brows. Using human genes to breed plants? Is that even possible? "
"What's all the fuss about?" Black Orchid said nonchalantly, "Life has always been interconnected, there's no difference between them. Don't think that just because you're a human, you're smarter than plants. Many plants are even more intelligent than humans."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. This explanation was very novel, but there was some truth to it. Take Peacock Blue for example. He was a plant, yet he had his own intelligence and powerful combat strength. Most warriors were no match for him.
"What we plant-type Spirit Masters are researching is to replace traditional Soul Artifacts with plants. As long as we cultivate them properly, plants can also possess all the characteristics of dark energy and destroy the enemy's soul. It's a pity that plant-type is a neglected profession among Spirit Masters. Many people don't even know of our existence." Black Orchid sighed.
Xia Fei laughed. "To tell you the truth, this is the first time I've heard of plant-type Spirit Masters."
Black Orchid waved his hand. "Forget it. Let's not talk about these troublesome things. Look, this is the Golden Sunflower that Fuchen wants."
Xia Fei followed Black Orchid's gaze and saw a small patch of soil planted with a dozen or so Golden Sunflowers, identical to the picture on the card Fuchen had given him.
"What a strange plant. It's actually a Golden Sunflower." Xia Fei was slightly taken aback as he muttered to himself.
Black Orchid was rather pleased with himself as he excitedly said, "The Spirit Master Union has four major bases, and our base has gathered experts from all sorts of miscellaneous systems. Does the pass Fuchen gave you also have a picture of a Golden Sunflower?"
Xia Fei nodded.
"That's because us plant-type Spirit Masters are the most successful group of people in the Spirit Master Union's Fourth Base. We were the ones who developed the Golden Sunflower, so the pass to Fourth Base has this plant printed on it. The other Spirit Masters don't have this kind of honor," Black Orchid said with a smile.
Xia Fei and Black Orchid talked for a while. Aside from the main base, the Spirit Master Union had four other large bases, and Xia Fei had come to Fourth Base. Aside from the main job of the Spirit Masters, there were also many special factions among the Spirit Masters gathered here.
The towers here all belonged to the plant-type Spirit Masters. Including Black Orchid, there were only three Spirit Masters in the Alpha Universe. While there were many towers outside, most of them were empty.
There were only three plant-type Spirit Masters in the entire universe? Xia Fei could not help but feel that this unpopular faction of Spirit Masters was very precious.
Black Orchid led Xia Fei to his room. Since he was the only one in this tower, Black Orchid might as well stay here. His office and bedroom were right next to each other.
Mysteriously taking out a palm-sized box, Black Orchid opened it in front of Xia Fei.
Inside was a kind of golden sunflower seed. It was a mysterious and strange golden color, as if it was made of pure gold.
"Give it to Fuchen. Back then, I lost a bet with this guy, and this is the price I have to pay. Every time I get a harvest, I have to give this guy a hundred precious Golden Sunflower seeds to satisfy his appetite. Now that I think about it, it's really a huge loss!" Black Orchid gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"Satisfy his appetite?" Xia Fei was speechless. After all this time, Fuchen had actually asked him to retrieve a type of food?!
He had made it so mysterious, even allowing Black Orchid to extract his DNA, and all of this was just to exchange for some delicious food for Fuchen! How could he even explain this?
"Actually, with my friendship with Fuchen, it's not a big deal even if I give it to him. Losing to him in such a manner just doesn't sit well with me." Black Orchid grumbled.
Xia Fei put away the Golden Sunflower seeds and was about to leave when he suddenly discovered a virtual system in Black Orchid's study.
"Master Black Orchid, is this the system that connects to the Cleric Union's internal network?" Xia Fei asked.
"Yeah, it's the Union's virtual network. If you want to use it, feel free. This thing is about to rot if I leave it here. In any case, you have the access card that Fuchen gave you, so it's a waste not to use it." Black Orchid pursed his lips and said, "That old Fuchen is very strange. He's always able to get his hands on all sorts of strange things."
With that, Black Orchid left the office and went about his own business, as if he did not have his guard up against Xia Fei at all.
Xia Fei thought about it and sat down in front of the virtual system. In any case, he had come here with the intention of looking up information about the Union. Rather than running around aimlessly, he might as well stay here with Black Orchid. Since he was Fuchen's friend, he probably would not sell him out.
Xia Fei took out the card that Fuchen had given him from his spatial ring, and all of a sudden, his eyes lit up.
This card was originally gold in color, but after using it a few times, Xia Fei suddenly realized that the surface was actually peeling off. It was as if there was a very thin layer of mold covering the card.
Xia Fei furrowed his brows and took out his toolbox from his spatial ring. Xia Fei had learned about machinery in the past, so he always carried a set of all-purpose tools with him.
A few minutes later, Xia Fei carefully peeled off the surface of the identity card, revealing a completely different card!
"It's black and doesn't have the sunflower symbol? Just what kind of identity card is this? "Radius curiously asked.
Xia Fei shook his head. "Not sure. In any case, it's not the identity card of the Cleric Union's Base Four. Black Orchid said very clearly that the cards of Base Four all have the sunflower symbol on them, and it's also on the one that connects to Jinliang."
"That's strange. Why would Fuchen put a disguise on this identity card? Could he have some secret that he doesn't want you to know? "Radius scratched his head and said.
Xia Fei habitually took out a cigarette and lit it up. "Whatever the case, we'll know once we give it a try. Who knows, there might be quite a few points in there." Xia Fei laughed.
With that said, Xia Fei put on the virtual helmet and inserted the card into the card reader.
* Whoosh! *
The illusion appeared, and Xia Fei entered the Cleric Union's network.
Unlike before, Xia Fei had obviously entered the real Union's network this time. There were dozens of entrances that led to different illusions, and there were even explanations on them.
"Information library, access, encrypted information library, access, trading hall, access, cultivation hall, access, Qiao Fuchen's card is practically omnipotent! It can connect to any system in the Cleric Union! "Xia Fei exclaimed.
This was a shocking discovery. There were dozens of passageways, and each one had a different function. Some required level 2 authority, while others required level 3 authority. The highest was level 5, and Fuchen actually had the highest authority in the Cleric Union!
"Heavens, Fuchen must have been an important person in the Cleric Union in the past; otherwise, how could he have such a high authority? But I'm curious. Since he left the Union long ago, why didn't they take his card away? "Radius was shocked.
"That is indeed a problem. The virtual system is controlled by a computer. Even if they didn't take away Fuchen's identity card, they could still remove Fuchen's authority. From a technical point of view, it isn't difficult."
"There's another more important problem. Something like an identity card must be tied to DNA, so why can I use Fuchen's card?" Xia Fei's brain was thinking quickly as he asked.
"Unless this card can bypass the virtual system, just like the special authority I gave you back in Fig Corporation!" Radius paused for a moment before saying.
This made the problem even more clear. Radius was able to give Xia Fei super authority back then because he was the mastermind of Fig Corporation. Could Fuchen be the mastermind of the Cleric Union? Or did Fuchen infiltrate the entire Cleric Union?
