Ability Warriors, Legacy Warriors, Law Warriors!
Gently stroking his spatial ring, Xia Fei took out a black metal cabinet and a triangular device.
Pa!
The triangular key was inserted into the golden hexagonal lock, and a subtle mechanical sound was heard. A few seconds later, the lock slowly opened!
Taking a deep breath, Xia Fei grabbed the two ends of the metal box and prepared to open it. Phantoms and Pod were extremely nervous, not knowing what was inside.
The lid of the box was very heavy, and Xia Fei slowly raised both his arms in case there were any traps inside.
Creak …
This mysterious black chest had been completely opened by Xia Fei!
Xia Fei was slightly disappointed, for what appeared before him was not a superweapon but a stack of papers.
These white engineering drawings were all bound into books, and the boxes were sealed very well. The paper was not ordinary, but made of a special kind of sisal hemp, which was resistant to wind and rain. Even after a long time, the paper was still brand new, and the lines on it looked like they had just been drawn.
Picking up a random blueprint, Xia Fei sat on the floor of the training room, sipping on his tea as he looked through it. His gaze grew more and more doubtful, and when he looked at the blueprint, his gaze turned into shock.
Xia Fei would be very serious when he was reading or training. Lil Pea and Phantom stood by his side, curious but unwilling to disturb him.
Xia Fei's reading speed was very fast, which had something to do with his extraordinary reaction time. About half an hour later, Xia Fei had already roughly skimmed through the tens of thousands of blueprints. At the very bottom of the box was a black metal board, which was about a meter square, with words and pictures recorded on both sides.
So that's how it is, Xia Fei said in a deep voice as he put down the metal plate.
"What do you think? What exactly are these things? "Gui Ying asked curiously.
Xia Fei did not say anything. He took out another stack of blueprints from his spatial ring and placed them together before flipping through a few pages.
"Exactly the same!" Gui Ying exclaimed.
He saw that the set of blueprints that Xia Fei had collected was identical to the one in the black metal cabinet, be it the lines or the structure. However, the blueprints in the black metal cabinet were densely packed with introductions that were clearer and explained in more detail.
Qin Mang once gave me a set of blueprints for a Titan-class warship, but only the hull. We also found its radar system and pulse cannon system in Black Abyss, and the box contains the full set of blueprints for this super warship.
"I've checked. Defense, engine, energy, air purification, anti-detection, all the blueprints are here."
Phantom was overjoyed. "Does that mean you can already start building Titan-class warships?! This was indeed a great thing! I wonder why the ancients buried this set of maps deep underground? "
Lighting a cigarette, Xia Fei said in a deep voice, "It's not that simple. I did a simple calculation just now, and the amount of work required to build a Titan-class warship is astronomical. I'm afraid that it'll take at least a few hundred years to complete. Furthermore, it'll require a super dock that's even larger than a planet. Even if we have that much manpower, we still can't process the components of a Titan-class warship with our current technology. It's too difficult.
Phantom nodded. "That's true. The Black Bat radar is just a simplified derivative of the Titan radar. Even the combined efforts of you, Harris, and Potter weren't able to perfect the simplified radar system. It goes to show how high the production process is."
Xia Fei was silent for a moment before he snuffed out his cigarette. What shocked me even more was the original intention behind the design of the Titan-class warship.
"Original intention? Weren't battleships meant for war? That goes without saying. "
Xia Fei shook his head and pointed at the black metal board. "According to what's written here, the reason why Titan-class warships were designed is to fight against a group of super experts that exist in the universe."
"You mean Law Adepts?"
Xia Fei nodded.
Phantom was even more confused. "Is it possible to use a warship to fight against Law Adepts? One of them is an intelligent lifeform that has cultivated martial arts to the pinnacle, while the other is a machine. In essence, they have nothing in common. "
Xia Fei said, "According to the records, in an even more ancient era, Law Adepts with peak cultivation lived together with ordinary people, but Law Adepts are so powerful that no law or regulation can restrain them. They can do whatever they want with a flip of their hand, and ordinary people are nothing more than ants in their eyes."
Phantom sighed. "That's right. Ever since I saw how powerful Yujiang and Yuhua were, I've even become a little weary of the world. Not to mention the fact that I'm already dead, even if I were alive, I wouldn't be able to catch up to them. We're all lifeforms of flesh and blood, so why is there such a huge gap between us?"
Xia Fei said, "The situation back then was the same. On one hand, Law Adepts were lawless, trampling on the lives of ordinary people. On the other hand, ordinary people felt that they had no hope of ever surpassing them, so they gave up on themselves and were unwilling to focus on cultivation.
"In the end, the common people were filled with complaints, and the experts also complained that there were fewer and fewer good seedlings to choose from, resulting in a serious polarization.
"Thus, a portion of the experts with the foresight banded together and found an empty space in the universe, gathering the Law Adepts of the various races to live together so that they wouldn't disturb the ordinary people."
Phantom rubbed his chin. "Yujiang and Yuhua have repeatedly said that they want to bring you to their circle to learn Law power. Are they referring to that piece of space you mentioned earlier?"
Xia Fei answered, "I can't be sure, but the possibility is very high."
Phantom was very curious about this mysterious world of experts, so he kept asking.
Xia Fei sorted out his thoughts and said, "To put it simply, the lowest rank of warriors are called ability users, and they can only live together with ordinary people. If they don't have a fortuitous encounter, they'll never know about the existence of Law Adepts, and the most they can do in their lifetime is cultivate themselves to the Immortal rank.
"Meanwhile, in order to pass on their heritage, Law Adepts have set up layers of connections in the areas where ordinary people live, choosing talented ability users to undergo inheritance training. Once the inheritance training is completed, they'll have the chance to enter the world of Law Adepts and become a true Law Adept.
"The experts in the universe are ranked according to ability users, inheritance warriors, and Law Adepts. The higher the rank, the harder it is to cultivate, and correspondingly, their lifespans will increase accordingly. It's said that true Law Adepts will be able to break free from the shackles of their lifespans and become an eternal lifeform."
Phantom was sweating profusely. He had originally thought that ability users were the pinnacle of existence in the universe, and Immortal Adepts were the pinnacle of the pinnacle, but it turned out that this was all just a facade. There were mountains beyond mountains, and each one was taller than the last.
"I understand ability users. You and I were both ability users when we were alive, and we've seen Law Adepts before. The God of Night, the God of Day, Yujiang, and Yuhua should all be Law Adepts, but what's an inheritor?"
Xia Fei smiled. "Actually, I'm an inheritor myself, just that I don't know about it."
Gui Ying was startled. "You are? What do you mean by that? I've been with you for the past few years, so how could I not know that you're an inheritor? "
Xia Fei answered, "Law Adepts have informants in the areas where ordinary people live. It's the same situation as the Assassin Sect asking me to be their representative, except that the Assassin Sect's representative is handling some orders, while the Law Adepts' representative is looking for outstanding warriors to inherit their cultivation methods.
"This kind of inheritance is done through a Heritage Planet, just like that Clean Knife we met before. He's probably the inheritor of a Law Adept."
Phantom suddenly recalled what Clean Knife had told Xia Fei before. Warriors who had been to a Heritage Planet were called inheritors, and as long as an inheritor could kill another inheritor, they would be able to head to a Heritage Planet again and begin a year of cultivation, finally obtaining a Law Inheritance.
Phantom nodded. "I remember now. Clean Knife did indeed mention some information about inheritors. Back then, we were all surprised as to how he discovered that you had been to a Heritage Planet as well."
Xia Fei replied, "He's different from me. He's someone who was specially nurtured by a Law Adept, while I came from an unorthodox background. Don't forget that the Heritage Planet I accidentally went to was incomparably desolate, and I also happened to stumble upon the telekinesis technique, which I then figured out myself."
"The key to open a Heritage Planet came from the remains of some ancient human, which is already very far away from the present, and that Heritage Planet was also abandoned. I accidentally went there and improved my cultivation, but I don't know anything about Heritage Warriors, Law Adepts, or the twists and turns between them. From this point of view, it can be considered a kind of luck that I was able to accidentally enter a Heritage Planet as an ordinary ability warrior and kill my way out."
Phantom nodded. "In that case, you really did come from an unorthodox background. There clearly weren't any Law Adepts who took a liking to you, yet you still went to Heritage Planet and came back alive. In the end, you met Clean Knife, who wanted to kill you and gain the right to enter Heritage Planet a second time. Unfortunately, he didn't succeed either."
After some thought, Phantom added, "Yujiang said that he'll bring you into their circle three years later, which means that you'll be skipping the Heritage Warrior stage and directly facing the stronger Law Adepts, right?"
Xia Fei nodded. The path of martial arts was actually the same as going to school, needing to take things one step at a time. Skipping a level and entering the world of a bunch of old monsters who had grasped Law was actually not a good thing for Xia Fei.
When the time came, a bunch of Law Adepts might even treat a puny speed ability user like Xia Fei as a monster. After all, Xia Fei was an entire level lower than them. Fortunately, Xia Fei had the Law of Primal Chaos left behind by the God of Night on his right arm, as well as Peacock Blue, one of the Thirty Immemorial Power Armaments. At the very least, there was hope that he could slowly close the gap between him and them.
"The commoners feel that Law Adepts will always be a threat, so they developed the Titan-class warship, hoping to use its giant cannons to fight against the powerful Law Adepts and restore the balance between Law Adepts and the commoners," Xia Fei said.
Phantom chuckled. "When it comes to martial prowess, the bigger the person, the more powerful you are. I don't think that the Titan warship, which is larger than a planet, has the strength to fight against Law Adepts."
Xia Fei replied, "According to the records in the box, the Titan warship was developed by the strongest race in the universe, the Yulan race. The blueprints were split into four sets, respectively the Divine Envoy class, the Atan class, the Bass class, and the Narok class. The set in our hands is the Divine Envoy class."
