My buildings have attributes

"It's not an underground water vein, but a man-made reconstruction of an underground water dragon vein," the bigwig said, shaking his head.

"Water Dragon Vein?" Chen Ling said in surprise, as if he had thought of something.

"That's right, it's a water dragon vein. Keep looking at the blueprints below," the big shot said mysteriously, nodding.

After listening, Chen Ling kept clicking the mouse to scroll down to the water dragon vein design diagram.

Soon, Chen Ling saw a diagram of a grand formation for the water veins of the Nine Provinces covering the sea.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling immediately became excited.

"Didn't you previously consult with feng shui masters and architectural masters to design a building with feng shui principles?"

This design is a collaborative effort by the nation's top civil engineering experts, feng shui masters, and architects.

Chen Ling had no interest in listening to what the big shot was saying at this moment.

Because his entire attention was drawn to the blueprint.

Chen Ling just used the system to evaluate this drawing, and the result drove him a little crazy.

"The assessment is complete. This design is classified as a legendary architectural complex drawing of the metaphysical category."

Metaphysics.

Legendary.

These six words alone were enough to drive Chen Ling mad.

Chapter 136 The Ancient City Was Unearthed Just After Construction Began

Faced with the legendary blueprints, Chen Ling accepted the project without hesitation.

Even if Guojia didn't provide the funding for this project, Chen Ling would still find a way to bring out this underground water vein.

He'd be awesome if he could unlock the legendary building template.

Chen Ling stared at the design drawings on the screen, flipping through them repeatedly.

He also wanted to see what made this legendary design so amazing.

However, after looking at it for a long time, Chen Ling did not find anything in the design that was beyond his imagination.

The difficulty of construction is relative. Constructing at an average depth of 300-500 meters underground is an impossible task for boiler racks.

But this was not difficult for Chen Ling at all.

However, apart from the difficulty of construction, Chen Ling didn't find the design drawings particularly impressive, except for the fact that he couldn't understand them at the fabric company.

To be honest, in terms of creativity and skill, this design is about the same as the Phoenix Reborn and Proudly Reigns Over the Nine Provinces from the Kingdom of Prayer.

Chen Ling couldn't understand why the system rated the design blueprint for the Prayer Kingdom as Epic, while this design blueprint was rated as Legendary.

"Boss, is the feng shui master in our pot rack much better than the feng shui master in the country of prayer?" Chen Ling asked.

"Well... how should I put it? If we're talking about the foundation, our Feng Shui tradition is miles ahead of the other countries. But when it comes to the skill of top Feng Shui masters, since we haven't compared them, it's hard to say how much of a difference there is."

"But overall, our feng shui masters are still better than those of the Dao Kingdom, after all, feng shui is something passed down from our ancestors." The bigwig thought for a moment and replied.

Although the big shot didn't know why Chen Ling would suddenly ask this question, he still told him what he knew.

Chen Ling nodded after listening; he agreed with this statement.

You can't say that the feng shui masters in our pot stand are far superior to the feng shui masters in the country. It's not impossible, but they're not that much better.

However, we have a profound cultural heritage, so in terms of overall strength, we are still stronger than the Kingdom of Prayer.

In this way, Chen Ling made his own judgment.

The reason why this design of the Nine Provinces Water Vein Overturning Sea Array is systematically rated as a legendary building is probably related to its scale.

The design of the Prayer Kingdom, while impressive, was too small in area.

The design drawings for the Magnificent Summer City basically encompass the entire map of the Magnificent Summer City.

In terms of scale, this design surpasses the design of the country by dozens of streets.

“Okay, I’ll take this project. When will the funding arrive?” Chen Ling asked.

"I'll notify the higher-ups shortly and transfer the first installment of the project payment to your company's account. When do you plan to start construction?" the bigwig asked.

"Of course, the sooner the better. I'll arrange the personnel and equipment right away and get the seawater desalination plant built first. However, this seawater desalination plant won't need the boiler technology and equipment; I have something better," Chen Ling said boastfully.

"Alright, then I'll go back and report now," the big boss nodded and said.

He didn't ask where Chen Ling's technology and equipment came from. Everyone knew the unspoken truth: as long as it was beneficial to the pot rack, who cared where it came from?

That afternoon, Chen Ling arrived at Bohai Bay by engineering vessel.

"System, construct an epic-level seawater desalination plant," Chen Ling ordered.

Following Chen Ling's order, the engineering vessel began construction, with its massive robotic arm extending deep into the seabed to begin work.

The reason for having the engineering vessel carry out the work was mainly to make a show of it.

Future seawater desalination plants will be built directly on the seabed, eliminating the need for pumps or similar equipment; seawater will be directly pumped into the desalination plant.

After being converted by a seawater desalination plant, the water enters the inner road of Hualixiadu through underground water veins.

These seawater desalination plants are all epic, science fiction-like buildings.

A fully intelligent factory or an unmanned factory requires no management once it is built.

Moreover, the seawater desalination process is very fast, and if it is turned on at full power, it can create a whirlpool in the thin bay.

At the same time, Chen Ling also redeemed nine drilling rigs from the system to build an underground water network.

Although there are only nine main waterways, there are many branches connecting various cities, much like arteries and capillaries.

When all the underground water veins are connected, the entire grand formation will be complete.

Chen Ling pretended to play around Bohai Bay for three days, and returned to Jinling on the fourth day.

It wasn't that he didn't want to play anymore, but that it was snowing heavily.

That's right, it doesn't snow on the ocean, but the weather is abnormal now.

It's only early October, and it's already snowing in most parts of northern China.

Moreover, according to the meteorological cloud formations, the snowfall was quite heavy and would last for a long time.

This means that the Ice Age is coming.

The day after Chen Ling returned to Jinling, it began to snow in Jinling as well.

"Cangming, activate the Wind and Rain Summoning skill and blow away all the rain clouds overhead. I don't want to see snow on Jinling." Chen Ling was very annoyed by the gloomy weather and gave the order directly.

"Okay, master."

Following Chen Ling's command, thunderstorm clouds formed above the Azure Dragon Building, and huge bolts of lightning streaked across the sky, continuously striking the building.

At the same time, the dark clouds in the sky began to disperse, and apart from the swirling cloud layer above the Qinglong Building that was constantly flashing with lightning, the entire sky above Jinling suddenly became clear and blue.

"This speed is a bit slow."

Chen Ling looked at the progress bar of the Azure Dragon Building's evolution and muttered to himself with a grin.

There's no other way; if the Azure Dragon Building wants to evolve into a legendary building, it must be constantly struck by lightning.

Even if it gets struck by lightning, the progress bar will increase very slowly, because the Azure Dragon Building can't be struck by lightning all the time.

So from the time the Qinglong Building was built until now, it has been intermittently activated to summon wind and rain, and then struck by lightning, and the progress bar has only increased by 1.72%.

"Cangming has always maintained a state of being able to command the wind and rain."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Ling decided to keep the "Summon the Wind and Rain" ability active and let the Azure Dragon Building be struck by lightning.

Anyway, he has already established a solid foundation, so he is not afraid of any petty tricks, and it is impossible for his superiors to suppress him.

Since that's the case, let the Azure Dragon Building get struck by lightning every day, so it can evolve sooner.

Otherwise, at the previous pace, who knows how many years it would take for the Azure Dragon Building to evolve.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

On this day, Chen Ling received a message from the robots that one of the burrowing robots had unearthed an ancient city while digging underground.

Chapter 137 The Underground Horror City

Did they unearth an ancient city?

Chen Ling was a little confused. There was an ancient city 500 meters underground?

Possessing the robot's body, Chen Ling entered the underground ancient city.

Rows of collapsed or half-collapsed earthen and stone houses, fragments of various utensils, not pottery, but stone and iron tools.

In the city center, there is a palace that has collapsed halfway.

Well... I'd call it a palace if I had to, but it's only a little bigger and taller than a typical courtyard house; it's not a palace like an imperial palace.

Chen Ling walked around inside and found nothing but some fragments of tools.

There was no gold or silver jewelry, no divine weapons; it was as if the place had been emptied out.

After looking around, Chen Ling found that there was nothing special about the place.

"Keep digging."

Chen Ling issued an order: an ancient city with no value whatsoever is no match for a legendary building.

Therefore, Chen Ling never considered whether to preserve this ancient city. He wasn't an archaeology professional, and there were no corpses or bones for the experts to excavate.

As for those artifact fragments, they might have some value, but it's enough to bring some out for the archaeological experts to study.

You can't exactly build a protected area 500 meters underground.

Therefore, Chen Ling did not hesitate at all and directly ordered the burrowing rat to dig straight ahead and crush the southern corner of the ancient city.

But soon, something that horrified Chen Ling happened.

That's when the burrowing rat dug through the wall of the cave on the edge of the city and unearthed a huge pile of bones.

When the burrowing rat retreated, revealing the entire rock face, Chen Ling felt a chill run down his spine.
