Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 32 Kyoto Base City

Eight hours later, Bai Yang finally finished the drill.

Sister Mei and Yang Wu immediately brought him food and water so he could rest.

His physical condition is exceptionally good now, so this little bit of hardship is nothing to him.

Glancing briefly into the studio, Jia Yi and Lu Ting were both sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, deep in thought.

With their combined talent and skill level, they are sure to gain something.

That's why they insisted on watching it with me until the end.

The three of them, not wanting to disturb them, silently withdrew.

The remaining video editing and computer input were naturally handled by professionals within Huashan, so he didn't need to worry about it much.

Bai Yang and Yang Wu set off from Jiangnan Base City early in the morning, and it was already afternoon.

The Huashan headquarters is basically a huge underground base, and there's really not much to see.

Having rarely visited Kyoto base city, they all wanted to go out and explore.

Unfortunately, he might need to be consulted at any time before the video is finished being edited, and he is still unavailable.

Bai Yang sat in his office, a huge room of more than fifty square meters.

The staff thoughtfully projected the natural scenery outside onto the windows, making it almost impossible to tell that you were underground.

Bai Yang connected his handheld computer to the mainframe computer in the office and began downloading classified information from [Huashan].

As the leader of Group Nine, he should have had this information long ago, but Huashan is a special organization.

The internal network has strict physical isolation from the outside world, and this time we finally got our wish.

The information he focused on included the locations of various civilization ruins on Earth and information about unusual monsters.

August 2057 is the day the giant egg of the Golden Horned Beast will descend upon Earth.

It has been exactly one year since then.

If possible, he really wanted to go and kill it as soon as it landed.

However, the original work only mentions that it is near the Hawaiian Islands, which is a very large area.

On the vast Pacific Ocean, there's simply no way to find it.

Unfortunately, that place is extremely awkward, as it is also the location of the No. 12 ancient civilization site.

This is one of the three most dangerous places on Earth, where the Silver Blue Empire's fleet "mothership" crashed.

Luo Feng's first fortune in the universe—the Heilongshan X81 spaceship—was also discovered here.

Needless to say, such places are under constant surveillance by instruments from various countries.

Even so, they couldn't find the Golden Horned Beast's cub, and in later parts of the story, it was able to completely disappear to heal its wounds.

Therefore, like Babata, it must have some kind of signal shielding and self-concealing ability.

Bai Yang didn't care about anything else and downloaded them all at once.

We can consider solutions later. Given enough time, there will always be better ways.

As for information about the strange monsters, that's more important to him for the time being.

This is almost directly related to his improvement in strength, especially the "Dragon Beast" among the monsters, which particularly attracts his attention.

According to the original setting, there are some extremely special and rare monsters, and no one knows how they evolved.

Perhaps due to certain special factors, these monsters have some peculiar names. Humans have given them the title "Dragon," which symbolizes their power.

The armored dragon that Luo Feng encountered was such a dragon beast.

Although its strength is actually not that great, it can only act arrogantly in the suburbs of Shanghai.

These kinds of monsters may not be very strong, but their genetic level is definitely not bad.

Bai Yang even suspected that their slow progress in strength was due to their superior genes.

The principle is the same as mine: a stronger foundation requires more resources.

After completing the monster's body, it can grow 72 dragon-head tentacles on its flesh.

The original giant serpent could even unleash terrifying high-energy beams from each of its dragon heads.

Although Bai Yang didn't want to make his art style so peculiar, the temptation to become stronger made it no big deal.

This is also why he set up a base in Kunshan in advance, as there must be a lot of dragon beasts in the center of Shanghai.

It may even be the most densely populated area on land, outside of the ocean and Australia.

This kind of thing can only be handled by an absolutely loyal eccentric slave; it's inconvenient to entrust it to Huashan.

Bai Yang slept through the night, and no one came to ask him about the details of the platinum light and shadow until the next morning.

[Huashan] The video recording and modeling work seems to be going smoothly.

If nothing unexpected happens, the entire Mount Hua will soon be affected.

Even the strength of the entire Chinese military will experience a surge.

August 25, 2056, Kyoto Base City, Kageyama Satellite City.

Mei Xiaqing drove Bai Yang and Yang Wu onto the train bound for the main urban area.

Bai Yang then realized that the Huashan headquarters was actually located underground in Jingshan City.

When we got off the train in the main city of Kyoto, everything here looked pretty much the same as the base city in Jiangnan, except that the weather was a little cooler.

There are no traces of the red walls and yellow tiles of the past, only skyscrapers with a technological feel.

Bai Yang recalled those tacky, old-fashioned buildings from his previous life, some real and some fake, and now he actually felt a pang of longing for them.

These cities are all the same; almost none of the landmark buildings that I used to know are left.

He was disappointed and wandered around for a while before getting bored.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

Now that I'm in Kyoto, it seems I haven't settled accounts with the Bai family yet!

With the power of the Bai family's HR alliance and the twelve major families of China, there are many aspects to their own situation.

Bai Pianqing, the paternal aunt of the head of the family, should already know, right?

Bai Yang began to get excited, thinking about how he had suddenly gone over to "visit" under these circumstances.

What kind of attitude will the other party have?

How will she face her uncle and cousin Bai Sheng in the future?

Without hesitation, Bai Yang used his handheld computer to access information about the Bai family.

When Bai Bianyong left Kyoto with his two children, his predecessor was too young and had very few memories.

Soon the location of the Bai family's old house appeared on the computer screen.

Bai Yang hailed a taxi and headed towards that place.

As one of the twelve largest families in China, the Bai family ranks almost at the bottom.

However, it is always possible to make friends with a few war gods and raise a large group of mid-to-high-level warriors.

Moreover, the Bai family has spiritualist bloodlines, apart from those three women.

It's hard to say whether there are other powerful individuals among them.

The methods of mentalists are also extremely difficult to defend against; it's simply too easy to challenge opponents of a higher level.

Yang Wu, sitting to the side, said worriedly, "Sir! Should we notify the bureau if we go like this? Should we send someone to provide support?"

Bai Yang laughed and said, "It's nothing. My cousin was training at the Bai family before, trying to break through to the God of War level. It did cost them some of their money."

My main purpose in going there this time is to repay the money. Of course, the goal is to maintain harmony.

Although Yang Wu was his subordinate, he noticed that Bai Yang's eyes were bright and he looked eager to try.

He simply couldn't believe that his master really intended to do that.
