Bengtie, sandbox development, how did they run out!

"Ha, Xiao Jingliu, you don't have to be so polite. It's like this, about this Lotus Realm..."

In the next few minutes, Shen Yi talked about taking care of crops and some minor chores.

Things turned out just as Shen Yi expected. When the three little girls heard that it was Lord Di Gong's request, they didn't care at all how incompatible the content was with their identities.

What's more, the crops that Lord Digong values ​​are definitely not ordinary ones.

While introducing the three of them, Shen Yi took them on a tour of the entire Lotus Realm, and finally stopped at a small manor that had been built not long ago.

Although the small building in the manor was fully furnished, there was no food, so Shen Yi specially bought three portions of charcoal-grilled pork belly from the mall.

The three little girls ate with relish.

During this time, Feixiao did not forget to tease them: "Jingliu, aren't you afraid of getting fat? Liuying, don't you only like to eat sweet things?"

In response, the two could only smile awkwardly.

The short midnight snack time was over and Shen Yi had finished explaining everything he needed to say.

Now they all have the ability to enter and exit the Lotus Realm freely. As long as they want, they can ignore spatial restrictions and directly enter the Lotus Realm.

If you think about it carefully, this setting is quite perverted. It is equivalent to providing them with a shelter and contact center where they can escape under any conditions.

Perhaps in the future even information spanning tens of thousands of light years could be communicated through the Lotus Realm.

Just as everyone ended their short trip to the Lotus Realm and prepared to return home, a mysterious cellar door suddenly caught their attention.

The door was located at the back of the small manor, hidden by a few tufts of weeds and flowers. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to find it.

"Hmm? What's that?"

Feixiao stopped, looked at the door, turned and walked towards it.

The other two girls followed her pace and came to the cellar door together.

This gate looks quite simple. Compared with the gate of the house, it has neither gorgeous patterns nor bright colors.

But the strange thing is that Feixiao, Jingliu, and even Liuying all felt that this door seemed to have a different kind of magic.

Well, no.

Rather, it was the thing behind the door that attracted them.

Jingliu squatted down, tapped lightly on the cellar door with his fingers, and asked, "What's down there?"

"I don't know," Fei Xiao shrugged. "I've only been here once, and as far as I can remember, there doesn't seem to be such a place."

"Go in and have a look."

As he spoke, Jingliu opened the door of the cellar, and a dark staircase leading to the basement immediately appeared.

Logically speaking, there was nothing interesting to see in this place, but the three of them seemed to be attracted by what was below and squeezed down the stairs one after another.

The basement was pitch black. Apart from the light barely coming through from the stairwell, it was pitch black.

Feixiao snapped her fingers, and a cluster of strange green flames floated out from her fingertips, barely illuminating the basement.

Only then did everyone see clearly that what was before them was not just a simple basement.

Iron bars, shackles, and chains...

This is clearly an underground prison!

Surrounding it are thick and cold walls, covered with a hard metal layer, completely enclosing this space.

The light is distorted in this confined space, casting mottled shadows, giving people the illusion that there are countless indescribable things hidden around.

"How strange..." Jing Liu stretched out a finger and ran it over the iron fence. "Why is there a prison in Lianzhong... Feixiao?"

"You ask me, but I don't know either." Fei Xiao spread his hands helplessly. "Didn't I just say that? I don't remember any such place."

Liuying, who was standing behind the two of them, asked, "Could it be that this place was created by the gods?"

Jingliu nodded slightly and agreed, "I don't rule out this possibility, but if that's the case, how formidable must the enemy be to be imprisoned by Lord Teigong himself?"

In fact, Shen Yi has the same problem as them.

This basement was built when this small manor was created. Shen Yi thought it was a cellar and didn't take it seriously. He never expected that there was actually a prison underneath.

Could it be that there is some hidden plot in this place in the future?

That's worth looking forward to~

As for who this underground prison was used to hold, Shen Yi was too lazy to bother about it.

After all, he is the only one who can decide who will be imprisoned in this prison.

Under his "screening", only a few people can enter this place. He can't lock up his wives here, right?

Uh......

From a "certain aspect", it seems that it is not impossible?

Anyway, as long as it’s not used to lock myself up, it’s fine!

At this time, Shen Yi never dreamed that...

This joke of mine came true in a very "special" way in the near future...

Chapter 116 Next up, Lady Black Tower! (5K)

After coming out of the Lotus Realm, Shen Yi began a new busy life.

Previously, he helped the Star Train forces to find out the truth about the fall of the planet Elkana, repelled the fleet of starfish, and sealed and preserved the remaining starfish with the Angel of Joy.

Now is the time for Star Express to deliver on its promise.

Shen Yi opened the diplomatic system on the function interface and found diplomatic matters related to the Starry Sky Train.

After completing the commission issued by the Starry Sky Train, Shen Yi's Star Alliance civilization's diplomatic relations with the Starry Sky Train were indeed upgraded to level 2.

This level is enough to formally establish a friendly and mutually supportive contractual relationship with the Star Train.

Now, as an ally of the Star Train, the Star Alliance can provide the Star Alliance with "pioneering" hyperspace channel technology free of charge.

"Domain Anchoring"

This is the function that Shen Yi is most looking forward to at the moment. Once he has this technology, the jump will no longer require the activation of the entire fairy boat, and ordinary scattered units can also travel across space.

With the delivery of the "Realm Anchoring" technology, both the Grammer Empire and the Xianzhou Alliance on Shen Yi's side added a new technology with the same name to their technology trees.

This technology is placed in the upper right corner of the technology tree interface and is specially noted with a name:

Star God Technology

The name is simple and straightforward, and you can tell at a glance that this technology is closely related to the Star God.

It seems that as the game progresses, you will definitely be able to obtain more mysterious technologies related to the Star God.

Shen Yi placed the virtual mouse over the boundary anchoring technology, and a series of detailed descriptions popped up:

[Xingshen Technology: Realm Anchoring]

[Description: Mysterious technology born from the pioneering destiny of the Star God Akivali.]

[Unlockable items: Developing star gates, developing routes]

[This technology does not require technology points to unlock, but after activation, all projects or units based on this technology require "faith points" to maintain each round]

Ok?

Is "faith value" required for maintenance?

Oh, I understand. This is the same as the Colossus weapon you built yourself, which requires consuming some materials for maintenance every round.

Hiss, faith value...

My civilization is currently doing pretty well in terms of gold income, but the faith income is a bit meager...

This is Star God Technology. Such a grand new technology must be very expensive, right?

Forget it, don’t jump to conclusions yet, read all the unlocked projects first.

With this thought in mind, Shen Yi clicked on the two latest unlockable items below the technology:

[Building: Exploring Stargate]

Description: A star portal based on the "Pioneering Destiny" allows you to travel freely across space between planets with pioneering star gates.

[Note: Opening a stargate requires the support of opening a channel]

[Construction Cost: Productivity 3000, Faith 500, Common Materials 200, Precious Materials 100]

[Maintenance cost: 10 Faith points per turn]

[Building: Opening Waterway]

[Description: Connects to the inter-space channel that opens the Star Gate, and also connects to the path of the Star Train.]

[Construction cost: 1000 Faith Points]

【No maintenance fee required】

Judging from the description, opening up waterways and opening up star gates are interdependent, just like the relationship between two banks and a bridge. If you want to cross the river, you have to build a bridge first.

The productivity and faith required to build a star gate are still quite high, but it is still within Shen Yi's tolerance. After all, the productivity required for a wonder can easily exceed 5000.

The most noteworthy thing is that for such a convenient project and such powerful technology, the maintenance cost per round is only 10 points of faith?

Don't even need gold coins?

Shen Yi even suspected that he had seen it wrong!

In the original work, the setting of boundary anchoring is that only the nameless guests can use it, but in this "game", as long as the star gates and channels are built, all units can move freely.

Could it be that this is also the will of "exploration"?

As long as you have a pioneering spirit, everyone can go far away?

What a great pioneer! What a great Akivalli!

With the current productivity of these cities in the Star Alliance, it only takes about 10 rounds to build a pioneering star gate.

Shen Yi gave priority to starting construction on Titania, the capital of the Grammer Empire, and the immortal ship Luofu, and built a pioneering star gate.

When the two star gates were completed, a new "boundary anchor" mark point was immediately added to Shen Yi's global map perspective.

Just click on these small dots on the map to directly focus your view on the star gate.

The completed star gate requires 1000 faith points to build and develop the channel, and it can only be officially operated after completion.

After Shen Yi exchanged his accumulated faith points for flying control, there was not much left. Currently, the faith points of the Star Alliance per round are less than 100 points.

Therefore, the faith value Shen Yi currently has left is just enough to build two star gates and one waterway.

After the star gate was completely opened, Shen Yi couldn't wait to deploy merchant units into the star gate, wanting to test whether the building was the same as the original one. It could only be used by unknown people who were on the road of opening up.

The test results surprised Shen Yi. After passing through the star gate, the merchant unit he ordered walked out directly from the star gate on the immortal boat Luofu that was connected to the Grammer Empire.

This shows that even if you are not an unknown guest, you can reach your destination by opening up a star gate.

In order to ensure the rigor of the test, Shen Yi opened the panel and called out all the merchant units on the Grammer Empire and the Xianzhou Luofu. He changed the previous way of trading through transport fleets and headed to his destination through star gates.

Without exception, smooth and unobstructed.

Shen Yi was very happy with this result.

This means that the Fan Galaxy Trade Network that he has been dreaming of can finally be built!

From now on, only with a star gate can caravans pass through it and travel freely between the cities of their own civilization, even if they are tens of thousands of light years away.

In this way, Shen Yi would not need to keep several immortal ships anchored in Grammer's planetary circle for the sake of several trade routes.

In future explorations, he will no longer have to rely solely on a few small exploration fleets.

Thank you Akivelli, praise Akivelli!

The big hand of the pioneering star god is so warm and brings tears to my eyes!
