Chapter 65: Let's Work, Traverser

Because there was no star map of this star field, Jiang Feng was temporarily unable to locate Yiran's home planet through limited information.

According to Iran, the place where she lives is a place called the "Wasteland", which is located in the northeast corner of the continent, and the places outside the Wasteland are collectively referred to as the Outlands, covering the entire planet. Eighty percent or more of humanity lives in a wasteland protected by giant walls and natural hazards. As for the outer realms, they are dominated by terrifying beasts, and only heavily armed armies or a few strong people with special abilities can walk in the outer realms.

As for who built the giant wall, and where those strange beasts came from, these Ira have no way of knowing. Just as most of the ruling class withhold information that is not in their own interests, intelligence about foreign lands has never been made public.

There is no concept of a state in the wasteland, or the sense of existence of the state is extremely weak. With the exception of the imperial capital, which was located in the middle of the wasteland, the rulers of the major cities were not bureaucrats, but huge industrial conglomerates such as the Yanlong Clan.

They launched a debt crisis through financial means, took the initiative to push the government bankrupt, corrupted the grassroots through bribery, and used national debt to blackmail the top management to formulate bills friendly to large groups. In the midst of weak concessions at the top of the government, these industrial giants eventually grew from mere enterprises to a veritable ruling class.

The operation of the enterprise has squeezed the available resources of the entire wasteland to the limit, but the lives of the middle and lower class people on the other side have been placed in the heat of the water.

For example, Yiran's hometown is a place called the Waste Capital.

It is the most famous industrial town in the Wasteland, and the most notorious Sin City in the entire Wasteland. And the actual controller of that city was the Yanlong Group that filled her pupils with hatred just by saying her name.

In the follow-up inquiry, Jiang Feng learned that the identity of this little ghost named Yi Ran before crossing was probably similar to the rebel army that rebelled against the rule of the Yanlong group. As for why the rebels would recruit a fourteen-year-old imp, most of them also took a fancy to her abilities.

According to her, before the crossing, her abilities were far more powerful than they are now, ranking tenth on the Yanlong Group's wanted list.

Although he felt weird about the act of showing off his ranking on the wanted list, Jiang Feng was more interested in what if Yi Ran, who manipulated the flames, could only be ranked tenth, and who was the so-called first place on the wanted list.

"What about the number one one?" Jiang Feng asked the doubts in his heart.

"No one knows, and it is said that everyone who saw him perform his powers died. He was not part of the rebels, the reason for his arrest is unknown, there is not even a positive photo, everything about him is just rumors. Yi Ran shook her head.

"Well, the number one that doesn't exist...... So who is the second place? ”

"The second one is manipulating metal, and in order to deal with him, the Yanlong Group even equipped its own security guards with special bullets with hardened plastic warheads. It is said that he himself used to be an engineer in a military factory, but later began to rebel against the rule of the Yanlong group for unknown reasons. He is powerful enough to single-handedly annihilate an entire Purge Squadron equipped with tanks and other heavy weapons. ”

"Interesting abilities." Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows and wrote a few strokes on the paper.

Based on the information explained by Yi Ran, Jiang Feng roughly analyzed that her original world should be in the late stage of the electric age and the eve of the atomic energy age. Judging from the rarity of those so-called "superpowers", the stardust content of the target planet should not be high, and the overall trend of civilization is still on the materialist side.

As for the so-called Wasteland, it is probably some external reason that caused their civilization to be destroyed once, and the current city is nothing more than rebuilt on the ruins. As for the giant wall, it is probably a product left over from a previous civilization.

After all, according to Yi Ran's description of many cities such as Jubi and Abandoned Capital, and by estimating the total industrial output, it can be concluded that this concrete fortification, which is about 100 meters high and hundreds of kilometers long, is definitely not possible with their current industrial capacity.

"So you're going to go back to that wasteland, and then defeat that Yanlong Group?"

"That's right." Yi Ran nodded solemnly.

"Ideals, let's talk about some practical problems," turning the marker in his hand, Jiang Feng said with a smile, "First of all, you need a spaceship that can at least fly out of this star system, and enough fuel to sustain the spacecraft for a hundred light-years. To make sure that when you fly back, the wall hasn't weathered by time, I recommend the subspace jump, or the three-stage warp engine, which will minimize the loss of time in the outside world, but these things are not cheap......"

"Wait, what are you talking about......" Yi Ran stared at Jiang Feng with a confused expression.

"As an elder, I'm just helping you rationally analyze how to realize your dreams." Jiang Feng said in a relaxed tone.

"So?" Yi Ran was stunned.

"So," Jiang Feng said with a smile, "In order to realize your dream, give me a hard job." ”

……

Interfering with the material or energy of reality through the power of the spiritual level can be said to be the foundation of all the "technologies" of idealistic civilization. The role of the soul in this is that of the main body that releases spiritual energy.

This is also one of the important differences between materialist civilization and idealistic civilization in their understanding of the universe.

Jiang Feng's mainstream view of the Earth Federation is that meat. The body is the basis of consciousness, and the death of the brain means the end of consciousness. Idealistic civilization, on the other hand, holds diametrically opposed views. The body is nothing but a carrier of the spirit, and even if the body is broken, consciousness can exist in the form of a soul.

The soul crossing of Yi Ran has caused no biological changes to the hair color, eye color and other traits of the original owner of the body, and even the abilities before the crossing have been carried to this body. To a certain extent, such facts undoubtedly provide valid evidence of the existence and particularity of the soul.

Jiang Feng was now very curious about whether he would be awarded the Nobel Prize or sent to the interrogation office if he compiled the information in his hand into a research report and submitted it to the Federal Ministry of Science...... If the Federation still exists.

In short, there is naturally no reason to let go of such an interesting experimental sample, not to mention that this guy's ability to manipulate flames seems to be able to come in handy. After the shuttle was repaired, it would not be difficult for Jiang Feng to give her a ride along the way.

What's more, he also has a lot of interest in that wasteland.

Before solving the problem of her residence, Jiang Feng temporarily let her live in the shelter and assigned her a few simple jobs.

Except for not being allowed to enter the experimental area and the work area, she can use everything in the living area freely.

After settling the poor fellow, Jiang Feng entered the laboratory and began a multi-day retreat.
