Chapter 1506 Colorful Scales Spread Cloud Wings

Upon entering this green space, Kaiyang's voice rang out from the boundary markers in everyone's ears at just the right moment:

"Welcome, everyone. You are now on Consultant Chen's private property. Consultant Chen is waiting for you at his residence. I wish you a pleasant stay."

"Oh hoo!"

Yuan Qiuyuan pressed a button, and the roof of the car moved backward. He felt the warm wind carrying a pleasant floral fragrance coming towards him and said in surprise, "There are such nice places in Zhongjing?"

Everyone was amazed. In Zhongjing, land was incredibly valuable. They thought that Chen Chuan's place might be similar to that in Jibei, perhaps a large independent building, or perhaps he would occupy an entire building by himself. But they never expected that he would own such a large area of ​​land.

They looked back and found that there was a raised hill, and the way they came was completely out of sight. It seemed that they had suddenly emerged from Zhongjing City.

At that moment, a large creature with brightly colored feathers flew overhead.

Yuan Qiuyuan looked up and laughed: "It's Chaoming. Is it here to welcome us?" He waved to the sky, and Chaoming responded with a whistling sound.

As the vehicle drove along the smooth road carved out by the green trees, egrets skimmed across the mirror-like surface of the lake in the distance. This beautiful natural scenery instantly lifted one's spirits.

About ten minutes later, they entered the mansion's garage, got out of the car, and took the elevator to the upper hall.

Chen Chuan, dressed in casual clothes, was waiting for them here with a slight smile on his face.

"team leader!"

Yuan Qiuyuan showed excitement and immediately saluted him. The people behind him also stopped and saluted.

To be honest, he knew that choosing to follow the captain back then was the right decision. It hasn't been long, and the captain has already reached the top of Da Shun.

Let's see who in the family dares to say they're not as capable as their older sister!
Chen Chuan smiled, raised his hand in return, and then said, "There's no need for such formalities in private. I happen to be short-handed here, and your arrival is perfectly timed."

Yuan Qiuyuan perked up: "Captain, tell me, what do you need us to do?"

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "There's no rush. Rest here for a few days first. You all need to change your equipment. I'll have Kaiyang arrange rooms for you. Settle down first, and I'll treat you to dinner tonight. We can talk about everything then."

The people hadn't seen him for several months, and seeing that he was no different from before, they relaxed. To be honest, after their own positions were promoted, the attitude of those around them changed, which in turn affected them.

Chen Chuan's attitude towards them remained unchanged. Perhaps he truly didn't care about them, because Chen Chuan's power didn't come from others, but was within himself, and no one could take it away, so there was no need to deliberately show off.

Chen Chuan glanced at the message and, just as he had thought, Zarnik and the other person would arrive around tomorrow.

In this way, his team structure can be set up, with someone in charge at each level from top to bottom.

The struggle against the conservatives is multifaceted, but it's impossible for someone like Ming Chengzi from Dongxuan Temple to handle everything. That would be too conspicuous, unnecessary, and a waste.

That evening, he treated everyone to a hearty meal in the lobby on the first floor, inquired about their situation over the past few months, and then discussed their future goals.

However, he did not delve into the latter topic. He said that the rest should be a good rest, and he did not intend to put too much pressure on the team members during the break.

The meal lasted until after 10 p.m. before everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Chen Chuan had the person in charge tidy up, and he was about to go back to his room when he received a message.

Upon seeing this, he walked out of the mansion and looked ahead at the ripples spreading across the atmosphere as an airship sailed in from outside.

This is where Consultant Han arrived.

The message he had just received told him that the active consciousness body belonging to him had been created, so it was immediately sent to him.

Han Yang's voice rang out from the boundary: "This thing is inconvenient to move, so we'll have to trouble Consultant Chen to come aboard the airship."

Chen Chuan responded, "I'm coming right now."

He floated up and landed directly on the airship, entering the cabin.

Han Yang was standing there waiting for him. He gestured to a large black pottery jar that was about two meters tall next to him.

"Advisor Chen, the active consciousness I created for you is inside here; you need to activate it yourself."

Chen Chuan looked inside and could clearly sense that there was a life form inside the pottery jar that had not yet been fully born.

Han Yang said, "This is made using the highest technology available to me, and the best materials sourced from the world's rings and fusion regions."

It hasn't fully hatched yet. Once you nurture it with your own space, it will only recognize you as its master.

Chen Chuan glanced at it a few times; the thing did indeed resemble an egg in its current state. He asked, "Is it okay now?"

Han Yang said, "Now we can." Chen Chuan stood still, his eyes brightening slightly. His aura emanated outwards, completely enveloping the life form. It seemed that he had filled some gap in the latter's life, and then a brand new, pure and complete life was gradually becoming complete.

A moment later, a strong heartbeat was born. Under this force, the liquid inside the eggshell rapidly decreased while the egg itself continued to grow, absorbing nutrients.
This seems completely different from the previous active consciousness; there is no trace of it being artificially created.

Han Yang said, "This time I used the newest and most stable cumulative variation technology."

This active consciousness has undergone three transformations: from birth to death, and from death to birth. Each time, it erases all traces of artificiality and unnaturalness. In the end, it will be a creation brought to the world by a creator, a work of art.

He was originally not a very sociable person, but when it came to this topic, he became very energetic and talked a lot.

"When it is born, it will be a life created by you, Consultant Chen. I don't know what it will be like in the end, but it will definitely be the most suitable for you."

Chen Chuan could sense what he meant by creation. The feeling was indeed magical. Under his spiritual guidance and field guidance, this active consciousness slowly became a complete life form, not at all like a semi-modified artificial life form.

After a long while, he seemed to realize something, stopped what he was doing, and took two steps back.

With a crackling sound, tiny cracks appeared on the surface of the pottery jar. As the cracks gradually spread, it finally shattered into pieces on the ground.

Then a life form resembling a white dragon flew out from within. It was about a meter long and had two wings on its back that looked like cloud wings. The scales on its body looked like polished gemstones that shone brightly, and under the light, it appeared dreamlike.

Seeing that Han Yang was also observing, Chen Chuan asked, "Advisor Han, didn't you know it would look like this?"

Han Yang shook his head: "I don't know either." He pondered for a moment, "But it might be because some of the materials I used were from medieval dragons, which is why it looks like this? What does Consultant Chen think?"

Chen Chuan glanced at it a few times and said, "I think it's good."

He doesn't particularly care about the appearance of active consciousness entities, as long as they aren't too strange or ugly.

His comments seemed to please the active consciousness greatly. It looked at him with its jewel-like eyes, immediately leaned closer, and frolicked around his body and arms.

Chen Chuan then sensed it again and realized that this active consciousness had already reached the level of the Dongxuan Temple.

These were originally combat support consciousnesses, so they must have skipped the gradual cultivation process and were combat-capable from the start, though it's unclear which aspect they lean towards.

Just as he was thinking, the active consciousness seemed to sense his thoughts and suddenly turned into wisps of smoke, surrounding him.

His eyes flickered slightly; was it a mental bias?

That's quite interesting. For him, since he'll be fighting more in the other world going forward, mental support will definitely be more useful.

Han Yang looked at it for a while, seemingly taking notes. After a long while, he looked away and said, "It has many possibilities. As for what functions it needs, Consultant Chen, you'll have to develop those yourself. I'm handing it over to you."

Oh, I almost forgot.

He walked to the side, picked up a small box, and placed it in front of Chen Chuan: "This is for your pet, and for that little raccoon."

Ok?
Chen Chuan glanced at it and could clearly tell through the box that it contained two external implants.

One of them closely resembles Chaoming, while the other has the silhouette of Tanuki Ghost Story.

Han Yang said, "When I arrived that day, I saw your pet, Consultant Chen. I thought that maybe they could be of help to you, so I used the extra materials to make two more."

Chen Chuan was not surprised. Of course, it was possible for Chao Ming to have an external implant, as for the Tanuki Ghost Story...

He said, "Consultant Han should be able to see that the raccoon dog is just an anomaly. Can an external implant be used for that?"

Han Yang said, "It can also be used for abnormalities. All the external implants I create are biased towards the mental aspect. Well... this can be considered one of my experiments."

After creating Chen Chuan's dedicated active consciousness, he left behind a lot of materials. At that time, he suddenly thought of the Chaoming and the strange tales of the spirit cat that he had seen at Chen Chuan's place, and some ideas inevitably came to mind.

Once inspiration strikes, he doesn't want to stop, and as a result, more and more ideas emerge. In particular, he has never tried creating something for a ghost story before, so he wants to challenge himself.

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Thank you, Consultant Han."

Han Yang said, "Consultant Chen, I have another project to handle. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now."

Chen Chuan said hello, bid him farewell, and then stepped out of the airship, gesturing to the active consciousness at the same time.

The latter seemed to understand his meaning, and immediately turned into a wisp of smoke, entered his pocket, and transformed into a white round stone.
