Chapter 502: Chapter 58: Preparing to Return to Cuiwei Star

[Human Race Chat Channel 789 (456)]

Ding Dong: "Hahaha, everyone, my Interstellar Teleportation Array is complete! If you haven’t finished yours, you’d better hurry up!"

Ding Dong: "The sooner we finish our arrays, the sooner we can return to Cuiwei Star. Seeing so many of us pass this time will definitely make the people on Cuiwei Star’s jaws drop."

Xiong Da: "What’s this about? I haven’t seen anything."

Ding Dong: "You can only see it once it’s built. After I finished my Teleportation Array, it told me that we have to wait for at least 70% of the Lords to complete their arrays. Once we meet that standard, we wait three days, and then they’ll all be activated together."

Ding Dong: "After the activation, everyone can use their Teleportation Array to return to Cuiwei Star or other places."

Xiong Da: "What if you don’t make it in time?"

Ding Dong: "If you miss the group activation, you’ll have to spend points to activate it later. As for how many points, feel free to find out for yourself!"

Xiong Da: "I’m too broke to try that. My Teleportation Array will be done in a few days, so I’ll definitely make the deadline."

...

Lin Yu happened to be looking at the chat channel just then. He had been about to ask for Cuiwei Star’s spatial coordinates, planning to return there via the Glacier World, but then he saw this conversation.

He immediately realized there was a slight flaw in his judgment.

Previously, he’d seen that the Array on the "Interstellar Teleportation Array" was basically identical to the one on the "Universal Cosmic Transmission Array" he had built. The construction materials were the same, too. As a result, he hadn’t planned on building an Interstellar Teleportation Array in his territory.

But now, seeing the messages in the chat channel, he realized that building the Interstellar Teleportation Array was a must.

The main function of a Space Teleportation Array is to open a channel through space between two spatial coordinates.

Then, different Space Teleportation Arrays use various methods to transport the people on them between those two coordinates.

The different methods of travel only affect the comfort and stability for the people or items being transported, with little impact on the success rate.

After all, no one would use a Teleportation Array with a success rate below 99.999%. Mainstream arrays are perfectly reliable under normal use.

Therefore, the most crucial aspect of a Teleportation Array is actually the establishment of spatial coordinates.

Once a location is anchored to a spatial coordinate, it generally won’t be affected by changes in its three-dimensional position.

From his limited understanding of spatial principles, the group activation of the Space Teleportation Arrays signified something very important.

Namely, the event organizers were going to anchor the entire continent as a single entity with a spatial coordinate. Then, each individual Teleportation Array would be assigned a specific address within that coordinate system.

Furthermore, if he wasn’t mistaken, the 70% requirement mentioned by Ding Dong referred to covering 70% of the entire continent’s area.

Lin Yu’s own territory occupied two-thirds of the Human Race Continent. If he didn’t build a Teleportation Array, it was likely that none of the Human Race Lords on the entire continent would be able to return to Cuiwei Star.

Lin Yu didn’t have the time to verify his theory. Instead, he simply notified Xia Luo to resume construction on the paused Interstellar Teleportation Array.

Three days later, the territory’s Interstellar Teleportation Array was successfully completed. Lin Yu went to check the array’s description.

[Teleportation Array currently inactive.]

[Group activation in three days!]

[After activation, the Teleportation Array can be used to travel to any spatial coordinate.]

Just as he’d thought, the scale of the Teleportation Arrays had reached the activation standard. It would be activated in three days.

’It’s a good thing I was reluctant to build this Teleportation Array back then,’ he thought. ’Otherwise, given my construction speed, every Human Race Lord besides me would have had to pay for activation.’

Ding Dong: "Everyone, pick up the pace! It’s a group activation in three days, so anyone who hasn’t finished their Teleportation Array needs to hurry!"

Xiong Da: "Holy shit, I literally just finished mine, and now I see the activation notice. Don’t tell me my Teleportation Array was the one that met the requirement?"

Ding Dong: "You’re seriously lucky, then!"

Zhang Lv: "You gave me a scare! Good thing mine will be finished tomorrow!"

...

Ding Dong, who had been keeping a close eye on the activation timer, immediately announced the news in the chat channel.

The other Lords who had yet to finish construction also hurried to speed up their work on the Teleportation Arrays.

Lin Yu issued an announcement in his own territory, informing the Lords who had allied with him that in three days, they could come to his main territory to use the teleporter and return to their homeworld.

For the remaining three days, Lin Yu decided to take a break and relax. He grabbed a copy of Great Druid Dorie Gray’s Journey into the Emerald Dream and went to the crown of the World Tree to read.

「One day later...」

"My Lord!"

Chenxi’s voice sounded from nearby.

"What is it?"

Lin Yu scratched his head and put down his book. ’It’s the middle of the day. For Chenxi to leave the administrative center and come looking for me, it must be important.’

"My Lord, the administrative center’s Defensive Plant Hybridization Lab and the military center’s War Plant Division have planted the War Ancient Trees, but we’ve run into a problem."

"What kind of problem? Don’t tell me you couldn’t get them to grow?"

"No, My Lord. We’ve discovered that the Water of Time seems to have no effect on the War Ancient Trees."

"Hm? They’re that potent? There are things the Water of Time doesn’t work on?"

"Come on, let’s go take a look together. I was getting tired of reading anyway. Time to stretch my legs!"

Lin Yu set down the book. ’The amount of information in this thing is a little overwhelming. A walk is a good idea. It’ll give me a chance to think about my future path as an Extraordinary.’

"Chenxi, what path do you think I should follow? The book says that Senior-tier Druids need to choose a specialization to focus their research on."
