Although Kisstis suggested leaving immediately, Chu Tianjiang felt that there was no need to go too far.

If Iska wants to deal with Chu Tianjiang, he will do it himself. Even if she can't do it, she can gather the other people before leaving. What's more, Iska left that long sword, as well as the star core to enhance her superpowers, indicating that she had no intention of doing anything unfavorable to Chu Tianjiang at all.

Just to be on the safe side, Chu Tianjiang and Kisstis still left the cabin.

In the forest, there are many places for the two to hide.

Just like last time, Chu Tianjiang still met the needs of Gystis first, that is, to let Kissis fuse the star core, reaching the average level of a freedom warrior. Because Kistis is a female and thinner than a male warrior, her superpowers are already above the average level of a freedom fighter after fusing two kilograms of star cores. With her strength, she can easily defeat the most powerful hunters even without using weapons.

Using the remaining star cores, Chu Tianjiang also enhanced his superpowers.

Of course, Chu Tianjiang chose some special superpowers.

Although Kistis wanted to be a psychic with great mental control, she didn't do so, and instead focused on strengthening her combat-related superpowers, such as speed, strength, and some special skills that can increase her combat power, which is also in line with her identity. Of course, Kisstis did this more to protect Chu Tianjiang, or to become Chu Tianjiang's right-hand man.

Because his body had been strengthened, Chu Tianjiang did not focus on enhancing his superpowers related to combat.

Chu Tianjiang's most important thing is the strength of his spiritual power.

In fact, it's also his weakest superpower.

Before that, Chu Tianjiang didn't need a strong spiritual power at all, because there was Iska by his side, and Iskar's most powerful thing was spiritual power. Later, there was Laika, and Soya also had a certain amount of mental control, so there was no need for Chu Tianjiang to strengthen his ability in this regard.

Collaborate with Kistis, it's different.

Since Kisstis has chosen superpowers in combat, Chu Tianjiang needs superpowers in spirit, so that the two can make up for each other.

It took a few days to fuse the star core.

Of course, the two did not stay in one place all the time, but changed places every day, so during these days, the two learned more about their surroundings.

Comparatively speaking, the natural environment of the New World is the best among all the continents and the most suitable for human habitation.

The point is that the climate in the New World is very good, with enough rainfall in most areas, and the forests are fully restored without human influence. With the exception of a small desert in the south, and parts of the coast, the rest of the New World is entirely forested.

Of course, for the "Freedom Defenders", who are not very numerous, there is no need to destroy forests at all.

Don't forget, the members of the "Freedom Guards" are all qualitative people, and qualitative people don't need food, so there is no need to cultivate land.

Fused with the star core and enhanced superpowers, Chu Tianjiang went to the "Source of Life" under the leadership of Kistis.

It's a general term, or rather a nickname given to Hunters, but it is a great way to describe where most Hunters are born.

The "source of life" is not a place, but a city, a city built in the forest.

In fact, it is also the only city in the New World, and the only city created by the "Freedom Guards".

Of course, this city is completely different from the city that Chu Tianjiang knows, and it is more like the place where the elves depict in the novels and movies live.

The city is large, and it is a standard planar construction.

Most notably, all the "buildings" in the city are made of trees, and many of them are made of tall plants such as trees, such as houses made of hollow trunks, roads and bridges made of branches, and roofs made of branches and leaves. Obviously, it is not very appropriate to call them "buildings", since these facilities have nothing to do with reinforced concrete.

That's why the whole city is hidden in the forest.

If you look at it from the air, you will only see a dense forest, and you will never be able to see the city inside.

Obviously, this is also to deal with the threat from the air, the empire that controls the cities in the air.

To Chu Tianjiang's surprise, there were very few underground facilities in the city. In a sense, those above-ground facilities can be regarded as underground facilities, because the main body of the city is erected in the air by trees, and most of the people live in houses on trees, and travel to other places through thick branches erected between trees, and use dense foliage to shield peeps from the sky.

Exactly how many people were in the city, Kisstis couldn't say, but there were certainly a few, more than anywhere else.

Of course, most of the people who live here are minors.

In the words of Quistis, all human beings, when they are born, are just a mass of beings containing basic consciousness. After the basic consciousness is solidified in the mass, the mass is taken down from the place called the "tree of life" by the person who is responsible for the cultivation work. Next, this mass of mass will be first molded into the form of a human being, and the necessary sensory organs will be shaped on it. The basic consciousness is only to condense this mass of mass energy and produce the most basic cognitive ability, and each person's subjective consciousness is gradually formed in the process of growth. Of course, the way to generate subjective consciousness is to constantly contact and understand things. It's a long process, eight years for most people, and even ten years for some people. Only after a complete subjective consciousness is generated can one gain the ability to move independently, and to explore and recognize the world around him alone. In this process, the subjective consciousness will gradually differentiate, and eventually form a distinctive individual consciousness, becoming a real adult. It is also a long process that will take at least eight years. In other words, the vast majority of people need 16 years of growth.

Kisstis was no exception, having lived in the city for sixteen years.

In a sense, it was the happiest sixteen years of all. Although each minor may not be treated exactly equally, and there are also unsatisfactory things, such as being bullied by older children, such as being blamed, such as being strictly regulated, but compared to the life after adulthood, these sixteen years are definitely the happiest, because during these sixteen years, there is no need to bear any responsibility.

Of course, these sixteen years of growth determine the status of all people in adulthood.

Although each individual has a definite future before birth, the influence of the environment on the individual's consciousness during the growth process may change the individual's destiny. The point is that some individuals who mature in advance are able to gain a few years during their formative years to learn other skills, and through this self-effort, they can change their fate and become a more conscious being.

Kisstis made an effort to do this, but failed.

Of all the offspring that have been cultivated, hunting warriors is the most numerous, the most common, and the least valued. The number of psychics is much smaller, almost one to one hundred compared to the hunting of warriors, so psychics are taken more seriously. In addition to these two more common individuals, there are also some more special ones, such as those who have been trained to be spies against the Empire.

Because of the need to raise different offspring, the city is divided into several districts.

Kistis knows about the area where warriors are hunted, and this is also the largest part of the city. Because of his psychic training, Kisstis also knows a lot about the psychic area. As for the other areas, Kistis has not been to them, so they cannot be talked about.

"Of course, no one has ever tried to dive into the source of life before you."

"For what?"

"For us, unless we're in a job dedicated to caring for and nurturing our offspring, we're never going to come back here when we reach adulthood."

"Didn't the Empire attack here?"

"Never."

"For what?"

"The enemy doesn't know the exact location of the source of life. In each of our heads, there is a memory trap directly related to suicide. If the enemy asks about the source of life, this memory trap is triggered, and our consciousness goes out of control. ”

"Suicide?"

"After the complete collapse of our consciousness, in addition to forgetting everything, it will also cause the star core in our body to go out of control, and eventually lead to the explosion of the mass energy body."

"This ......"

"Of course, except for those of us who have been directly cultivated, those members from the Sky City don't know about the existence of Lu Dao at all." Kistis smiled and said, "Of course, there's no reason for us to sneak into the source of life like we do now. ”

"Okay, just as I'm the first."

"I know that there must be a lot of secrets hidden here, but I don't know why you want to come here."

"It's the secrets."

"Those, or one of them?"

"The most important one is just to be able to know more, and that would be great."

"Which one is the most important?"

Chu Tianjiang let out a long sigh and said, "Do you, the cultivated descendants, have some degree of relationship with the three leaders? ”

"This ......"

"I've made a guess, and I'm here just to prove it."

"What's the use of proof?"

"I don't know, but it should make some sense."

"We'll have to be patient in that case, because there's only one place where you can prove your guess."
