Chapter 62: The Demon Sea Base

Chapter 62: The Demon Sea Base

The caravan arrived at the northern gate, where Yue Zhong engaged in discussions about cargo transfer with a leading warrior of the caravan. These goods had been transported from the main base to Linhai Base for sale, in exchange for various other resources. These were resources the main base lacked, such as specific medicinal herbs and materials from ferocious beasts, while the main base could offer many finished goods like healing medicines and elemental weapons. The exchange of goods benefited both bases, and the Martial Guild also profited significantly in the process.

Yue Zhong set people to manage the goods, a process that would take an hour or two. Knowing they had time to kill, people like Grandmaster Li closed their eyes to rest, while Ye Tian curiously eyed the gigantic beasts that were a part of the caravan.

All of these fierce beasts were of the same species, resembling elephants but several times larger and covered in thick scales. Since the beasts were not far from Ye Tian, he could easily assess their innate abilities.

Type: Armored Brute Elephant

Bloodline Talent: Medium

Defensive Talent: Elementary

Strength Talent: Elementary

"Good talents," Ye Tian exclaimed. These Armored Brute Elephants even had two special talents. Although they were only elementary-level talents, they should be considered good among beasts. The only regret was that their bloodline talent was just medium, ensuring they could never become particularly strong beasts.

"Even if they are of medium level, from their aura, they've reached their peak growth, achieving the level of high-tier fierce beasts. With defensive and strength talents, they should be of medium capability among high-tier fierce beasts," Ye Tian concluded.

Their massive size and moderate strength made them ideal for cargo transport. About an hour and a half passed, and Yue Zhong's exchange of cargo with the caravan was almost complete. The caravan prepared to return to the Demon Sea Base.

"If you follow the caravan, it will cost 10 million per person, including a free entry permit," said a leading warrior from the caravan as he approached Ye Tian and the others.

"Here," Lin Wanli handed over ten gold cards to the warrior. Although Grandmaster Li was a grandmaster, he couldn't break the rules. The caravan also had a grandmaster who stayed in a cart pulled by an Armored Brute Elephant and hadn't come down. So Grandmaster Li dared not refuse to pay.

"You need to pay 30 million, as you also have to pay for your beast," the caravan warrior pointed at Xiao Jin.

Thirty million was a trivial amount for Ye Tian. He paid without any discussion. Soon, the caravan departed. Grandmaster Li and the others weren't eligible to ride the Armored Brute Elephants; they had to run alongside. Ye Tian and Ye Yu, however, were more comfortable, riding on Xiao Jin's back without any jostling, utterly at ease.

The Armored Brute Elephants didn't run at high speeds but moved at 100 meters per second. It was slow, but there was no other option; this was the wilderness, and there were countless fierce beasts between Linhai Base and the Demon Sea Base. Moreover, the route was not fully cleared. If they ran too fast, not only could the cargo be overturned, but they also risked running into other beasts, creating a big problem.

Given the speed of the Armored Brute Elephants, it would take about eight or nine hours to cover the 3000-kilometer distance, a time frame that wasn't too long.

Traveling at the speed of the mighty armored elephants, the caravan covered a distance of 3,000 kilometers in approximately eight to nine hours. The time wasn't particularly long.

Along the way, Ye Tian encountered numerous ferocious beasts. However, most of them ran off as soon as they sensed the aura of the armored elephants. After all, a herd of high-level beasts exuded a strong deterrent force; ordinary beasts dared not approach the caravan.

The caravan was not afraid of high-level beasts; their concern was the appearance of top-tier beasts. However, the probability of encountering top-tier beasts was not high. The route the caravan took was relatively safe, steering clear of the territories of top-tier beasts. So, unless they were particularly unlucky, mishaps were generally unlikely.

Nine hours passed.

Ye Tian sat atop Xiao Jin, his eyes scanning the distance. With his keen vision, he soon saw an enormously large city in the distance. The city was many times larger than Linhai Base, yet it lacked walls for protection. Instead, a faint shimmering screen covered the entire city.

"Demon Sea Base," Ye Tian muttered to himself.

Compared to the grand Demon Sea Base, Linhai Base was undoubtedly a backward place; the difference between the two was like that between a modern city and an ancient one. What piqued Ye Tian's curiosity was the immense light screen that covered the entire Demon Sea Base. Rumor had it that this was a formation, but he wondered how it had been constructed.

A minute later, the caravan's lead warrior announced, "We've arrived! Take your entry permits and go!"

The leader handed a paper permit to Ye Tian and sent him on his way.

Demon Sea Base had multiple entrances, none of which were covered by the light screen. One could enter, but an entry permit or a Yuan-power identity card was required. Unauthorized entry, even by a grandmaster, was punishable by death.

Holding three permits, Ye Tian passed through the entrance and entered Demon Sea Base, subsequently parting ways with Old Man Li and the others. They clearly had their own business to attend to. And since their paths might not cross again, there was no reason to stick together.

The streets of Demon Sea Base were quite broad, wide enough even for Xiao Jin to walk without seeming too large. This was intentional, designed with the consideration of pets who were beasts.

After asking around, Ye Tian finally located the place where he could register for residency in Demon Sea Base—the Bureau of Demon Sea Base Residents.

Standing in front of the skyscraper that housed the bureau, Ye Tian felt a sudden rush of nostalgia. In fact, he'd felt it ever since he'd arrived at Demon Sea Base. After all, the base resembled a modern city from his past life, except that Yuan-power was the energy source here, permeating the air, far denser than at Linhai Base. Training in such an environment would undoubtedly be much faster.

Just as Ye Tian was about to enter the Bureau of Demon Sea Base Residents, a warrior dressed as a security guard stopped him. "My friend, your beast can't enter!"

Ye Tian looked at the warrior, then at the entrance of the bureau, and finally at Xiao Jin's size. Reluctantly, he had no choice but to leave Xiao Jin outside to avoid any destruction.

"Xiao Jin, wait for me outside. I'll be back soon," Ye Tian instructed.

"Master, come out quickly!" Xiao Jin was somewhat fearful and anxious.

The area was crowded with humans, many of whom were powerful. It even sensed the presence of humans much stronger than itself, right inside the Bureau. As a beast, staying here felt too stressful.

If Ye Tian were there, it wouldn't be afraid. But with Ye Tian gone, it began to worry about its safety.
