#296 - Do you acknowledge your master now?
“Master—”
Inside the core control room of the sacrificial tower, a smart robot walked over, bowing to Yang Wu and calling out, a hint of reverence in its eyes.
After a smart lifeform acknowledges a master, although it will also have emotions such as anger and jealousy, it is extremely loyal to the master like a soul slave, the only difference being that it will not die with the master.
"Master, this is—"
The smart robot carefully explained to Yang Wu, but Yang Wu looked bewildered after listening.
“So, it just acknowledged me as its master!”
The Yanji tribes of the Yanji Continent used to exist in the form of tribes, generally led by a God Lord, with the strongest being the Elder.
The Elder was responsible for leading the tribe, while the God Lord was responsible for managing the tribe.
A peak-level King is already the strongest in a tribe. Every Yanji tribesman at the peak of the King level will trigger the underlying program upon entering the sacrificial tower with a token.
‘Can you control the entire sacrificial tower?’
Yang Wu asked. As the Yanji tribe's survival base for escape, the sacrificial tower, like the Star Fortress, is a mobile and flying survival base.
“Master, I can!”
The smart robot replied. The sacrificial tower's intelligence itself controls the entire tower.
Different residents of the Yanji Continent have different levels of permissions: ordinary tribesmen, immortal tribesmen, tribesmen with tokens—.
The permissions are increasingly higher.
A King-level Yanji tribesman can only operate in the core area or perform some low-permission behaviors such as monitoring in the control room.
However, if a King-level Yanji tribesman also integrates the sacrificial tower token, they will be recognized by the entire sacrificial tower and become the master of the entire tower.
Just like Yang Wu now, becoming the true controller of the sacrificial tower.
“—”
“Tell me about some of the secrets of this sacrificial tower!”
“Yes, Master!”
The smart robot respectfully said. Immediately, a three-dimensional virtual projection appeared in the control room.
“Sacrificial Tower No. 007 primarily undertakes the task of race inheritance. The treasures in the core area are divided into two treasure rooms and one inheritance room.”
In the distant ancient times, the natives of the Yanji Continent suddenly faced a catastrophic disaster. Back then, the natives of the Yanji Continent were also an ordinary race in the universe. There were fewer than ten Universe Venerables in the race. They trembled like ants before the four peak races.
Several Universe Venerables, knowing that their chances of escape were extremely low, quickly distributed their treasures and the treasures accumulated within the race to the tribesmen.
Tens of thousands of sacrificial towers flew away from the Yanji Continent like arrows.
Of course, among the ten thousand sacrificial towers, only 100 were true inheritance teams, while the other 9,900 teams were completely decoys.
Similarly, the ten thousand sacrificial towers were also divided into high and low specifications. Like the 9,900 decoy teams, which were specifically designed to mislead the four peak races in their pursuit, these were cannon fodder.
The sacrificial towers they rode in were made of ordinary materials, but with some special sacrificial patterns, the towers possessed abilities such as concealing aura, masking detection, and spatial lockdown.
In addition—
There were also other significant differences between the inheritance teams and the ordinary teams.
For example, the leaders: the true inheritance teams each had six King-level powerhouses leading them, while the ordinary teams were led by six Marquis-level immortals.
Also, the treasures: the ordinary teams had extremely few treasures, only the inheritance teams truly had treasures, treasures that were truly meant for the race's inheritance.
This No. 007 sacrificial tower was one of the 100 inheritance sacrificial towers back then.
The two treasure rooms contained all kinds of expensive materials, weapons, and mysterious treasures.
The inheritance room contained various secret techniques accumulated by the Yanji tribe over countless years, and a massive amount of knowledge inheritance.
Sacrificial Tower, core area.
Inside the assembly hall, King Ziqiong and several soul slaves under his command were sitting in the hall, waiting.
“Swish!”
Two figures appeared in the hall.
“Master!”
King Ziqiong instantly stood up in surprise, came before Yang Wu, and looked at the smart robot beside Yang Wu.
"Let’s go, we’re going to the treasure room."
Yang Wu nodded, then led King Ziqiong along the corridor towards the treasure room. As for the four immortal slaves, they were taken away by King Ziqiong. Their mission was complete, and there was no need to follow Yang Wu to "adventure" anymore.
A moment later.
The smart robot led Yang Wu to a cabin. The hundred-meter-wide hatch was half-open, and an immortal god's corpse was lying at the hatch entrance. At a glance.
Inside the cabin, there were translucent platforms, and a body was sitting cross-legged in front of the platform. Judging from Yang Wu's aura perception, it should be the corpse of a fallen Marquis-level immortal god.
At the same time, three ordinary book-sized gray boxes were solemnly placed on the transparent platform.
“Master, this is the first treasure room.” The smart robot flew forward, and the half-open hatch fully opened with a whooshing sound.
“Let’s go!”
Yang Wu stepped into the cabin.
The cabin was several hundred meters long and wide. Yang Wu glanced at the corpse sitting cross-legged, bypassing it without paying any attention, and landed his gaze on the translucent platform about ten meters long and wide in the center.
There were dense texts on the translucent platform. These were the texts of the natives of the Yanji Continent, one of the languages that Yang Wu had learned in advance.
With his consciousness calculation speed, he could learn a language in just a few seconds and be able to use it flexibly.
As soon as Yang Wu saw the text on it, he immediately understood its meaning.
The text described:
“Our race is facing a great catastrophe. The three treasure boxes in this treasure room each contain a world ring, and the world rings contain a large number of treasures. We hope that the descendants of the race can allow the race to rise again.”
“The treasure box contains a sensing and detection system, which can only be opened by members of our race. Foreign races cannot open it.”
"This treasure box is exquisitely refined, using G9-level metal as the material, and engraved with dense and exquisite law secret patterns on the outside."
Yang Wu glanced at the dense law secret patterns on the treasure box and knew that if an outsider obtained this treasure box, it would be difficult to open it forcibly.
To forcibly break open this treasure box, it would probably require the strength of a Universe Venerable to do so.
As for opening it—.
Yang Wu stepped forward and gently stroked the treasure box with his right hand.
“Beep!”
The sensing system inside the treasure box began to identify the life aura, confirmed!
“Pa!”
The originally locked lid of the treasure box automatically loosened. Yang Wu immediately revealed a trace of a smile, opened the lids of the three treasure boxes, revealing the treasures inside the boxes.
Inside the three boxes, there was a world ring placed in each. As the power of the world swept over, all three world rings were in an unowned state.
Yang Wu did not immediately inspect them, but instead put them away first.
“The first treasure room is in hand!”
"Let’s go to the second treasure room."
