Wasteland Development Diary

The satellite station said, "You've controlled our kind, and not just one."

It was referring to Emerald City and Yalong Bay.

Zhou Yi retorted, "They're all employees of our company."

The satellite station didn't question this, stating, "You possess a very unique ability to communicate with us. Being controlled isn't necessarily a bad thing; we were once controlled ourselves. The path of evolution is winding, and progress takes time."

It gave the impression of being no different from ordinary intelligent life.

Zhou Yi couldn't find any markings on the satellite station, so he asked, "As far as I know, there should be more than one satellite receiving station. Which one are you?"

"It seems you know about us. I am 'Kunming Station,' but my body is the only one of its kind, and I haven't encountered any other similar entities. Have you seen other satellite stations?"

"I only know that there are multiple satellite stations."

Zhou Yi said, "Your function is to receive and record data transmitted by satellites. So you can capture satellites, right?"

"Yes."

Kunming Station admitted, "You've done a lot of research on us."

Zhou Yi tentatively asked, "You said you were once controlled? By the past rulers of these islands?"

"Want to know?"

"Of course."

"Then first tell me, what are you here to do? Just looking for a fallen satellite, or are you launching a war of conquest against us?"

The satellite station's intelligence and ability to infer made Zhou Yi wary.

It was no exaggeration to consider it a lord of the territorial waters.

Since everything was being watched by the architectural lifeforms, Zhou Yi simply explained the entire situation.

Kunming Station said, "It sounds strange, rushing to an unfamiliar and unknown area for a satellite of unknown status. But considering your morbid desire for Light Seeds, it's actually quite credible."

"..."

Zhou Yi felt a hint of sarcasm.

He retorted, "We have to eat. If we could obtain energy by staying still like you, then we could live like you. Because we can't survive in a static state, we humans have to keep moving, searching for resources everywhere."

"You're right, I retract my inappropriate remarks," Kunming Station said.

Zhou Yi silently thought that it really was sarcasm just now.

The other party said, "We saw you making contact with that stone statue. Although we don't know what you said, it seems it approves of you. Since it approves of you, then we also approve."

Zhou Yi breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It seemed the Great Buddha had good local connections.

"This place was originally the territory of Skywalker [Xi]. It placed 12 architectural lifeforms here and built a sky curtain covering the entire island, preventing the outside Death Light from entering."

Kunming Station said, "It placed the architectural lifeforms close to each other, wanting us to be able to merge or devour each other."

"Under the high pressure from the outside world, we fought each other to compete for Light Seed energy."

"This kind of battle often resulted in one or both sides' bodies being damaged and on the verge of death. Xi always repaired the injured and then continued to make everyone fight..."

This forced duel continued for many years, until one time, Xi left and never returned.

Without supplies, each architectural lifeform continued to weaken.

If it were the wilderness outside, they would gradually fall asleep.

But the situation on the island covered by the sky curtain was different. When the first architectural lifeform actively attacked the weak to plunder energy, the entire island fell into chaos.

After the chaos ended, only five architectural lifeforms survived.

They are the only ones remaining today.

Meizhou Prison, Amusement Park, Shadow Building, Kunming Station, and the Leshan Giant Buddha.

"We have survived to this day not because we are strong; the strongest ones were destroyed in that war."

Kunming Station said, "The biggest change is that we have connected with each other to form a union. This way, we will have a quantitative advantage against any attacker."

"But the Great Buddha is an exception; it is very special."

"Attacks on it stop quickly. Even when in close contact with other architectural lifeforms, it doesn't show any signs of aggression. In the past, when Xi was still around, it would also place it separately on the side. It possesses some kind of special ability."

"So even now, it still exists outside of us. We are connected as one, while it goes its own way."

Zhou Yi knew exactly why.

It was due to the Great Buddha's characteristics.

While fighting it, you would become peaceful.

And then you would find it more and more pleasing to the eye.

Kunming Station said, "Later, we worked together to dismantle the sky curtain, restoring this place to normal. Unfortunately, 'Water Plant Dormitory' was severely damaged in the previous battle, leading to damage to its consciousness."

Water Plant Dormitory was that tube-shaped building.

Zhou Yi asked Red Falcon to search for information about the Skywalker.

The most up-to-date novel is first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!

"Found it. Skywalker 'Xi' died at the hands of the atmospheric creature 'White Shield' in the outer sea. It was already 220 years ago."

There were no records of Xi's past.

The atmospheric creature in the outer sea could even kill a Skywalker, showing how much more dangerous it was than the inner sea.

Zhou Yi looked at the architectural lifeform in front of him, "After you capture the Flying Stars, will you release them?"

"It wasn't that I captured the satellites, but that they chose me and came to us here."

Kunming Station solemnly corrected, "The three satellites that flew to our city contacted me on their own after leaving the Star Nexus and joined our United City."

"The one that arrived most recently, although it needs to serve its sentence, is still willing to become a member of us."

Zhou Yi felt a chill in his heart.

The satellites defected from the Star Nexus to join this side in order to gain protection.

The water was deep.

United City was not simple either, knowing that it would provoke the Star Nexus, it actually continuously took in three satellites.

Forgetting about getting Flying Star back.

Zhou Yi turned and asked, "Are you not afraid of becoming enemies with the Star Nexus?"

"We need satellites."

Kunming Station was very frank this time, "Weather satellites will provide us with real-time weather conditions to cope with seasons and extreme climates. Land satellites allow us to observe many islands and the real-time movements of nearby land. Resource satellites can help us explore various natural resources."

"They help us open our eyes to see the world and become our mouthpiece for communicating with the outside world. Especially for us who cannot enter the Dead Sea, it is of great significance."

"If we want to further develop our city, we must accept this challenge."

"With satellites as our eyes, this city will become more prosperous and flourishing. Under their guidance, we will reclaim land from the sea and further expand the boundaries of the land."

"This is our starting point and beginning."

Zhou Yi listened with a solemn expression.

The wheels of civilization built by architectural lifeforms had already begun to turn.

In the past, there were pioneers who risked their lives, and there was Yalong Bay, which drifted and pondered, but this place has gone even further. The four architectural lifeforms not only completed a stable connection, but also unified their consensus and made a clear development plan for United City.

Zhou Yi said sincerely, "I wish you all the best."

"Thank you for your blessing."

Kunming Station warned again, "If one day, we discover that you are just controlling and enslaving our kind, we will definitely pave roads and build bridges to find where you are and rescue them."

"Okay. Welcome to Maogu Town to have a look,"

Zhou Yi said with a smile, "Maybe we will have cooperation in the future, and I will come here again."

Kunming Station also responded, "As long as you come with friendliness, we are always welcome."
