Chapter 1027: Explosives and Treasures

The evolution of the draconian world had resulted from the combination of dozens of different worlds, small and medium-sized and large.

In terms of size, the evolved draconian world was larger than the Zongming world, but there were far more problems as a result as well—all of which the draconian sage would have to deal with.

His main priority was handling the conflicts and interpersonal relationships between varied groups of aliens; he didn\'t have the time to go through the various changes that had taken place to the world itself.

Although the draconian sage had assigned some of his trusted aides to resolve as many of these issues as he could, he had to handle some matters personally.

Where his subordinates were incapable of handling the issues, the draconian sage would have to step up himself. He had had no free time lately; the reason Zhang Lie was able to see the draconian sage so often wasn\'t because the draconian sage was free, but because Zhang Lie caused such a huge disturbance that the draconian sage had to drop everything he was doing to make sure that nothing would affect the draconian world.

The draconian sage felt as though his head was about to burst from the bombshell that Zhang Lie had just dropped.

Zhang Lie pointed at the black metal in the draconian sage\'s hands. "Be careful. It might explode!"

The draconian sage shuddered.

"I recommend you find someone to block off this area. If someone manages to ignite the metal underneath your feet, the entire draconian world will become nothing more than dust. The neighboring worlds might be affected as well—I estimate over a hundred will be impacted."

Having sensed the energy contained in just a chunk of the black metal, and then realizing how much metal was before him, the draconian sage\'s face turned pale immediately.

What Zhang Lie had hypothesized could really happen. They were essentially standing on a pile of dynamite.

The draconian sage extended a hand and sealed off the surrounding space.

Zhang Lie replied, "Just find someone to seal it off. There\'s no need to seal the space as well—it\'s as though you\'re trying to make it a biohazard."

Even so, the draconian sage didn\'t feel as though it was safe enough. Invoking his authority as king, he sealed off the space time and again.

Zhang Lie began to sweat. "This is too much, don\'t you think?"

The draconian sage retorted, "If anyone with malicious intentions were to get in and detonate the entire place, what would I do?!"?This is my world, not yours—of course you can afford to take it lightly.

Zhang Lie continued, "I\'ll have the battleship researchers come over to investigate the fuel. It should prove handy."

The draconian sage shook his head in refusal. "Let\'s forget it. If we accidentally ignite this territory, everyone will die."

Zhang Lie shrugged. "This black metal isn\'t as reactive as you make it out to be. Don\'t worry—it\'s relatively inert! I just ignited a chunk, and nothing happened. As long as no one tries to detonate the entire region, we should be safe!"

"Should be? I don\'t trust in should bes."

Zhang Lie urged, "The black metal really is quite inert. Reactivity seems to be produced only by infusion of genetic energy."

After all, the members of Team Zenith, who had charged up the region, had done so by means of their genetic energy. It made sense that the trigger for reactivity would be exactly the same.

Zhang Lie explained, "As long as no one attempts to infuse large quantities of genetic energy into the black metal beneath them, there won\'t be a huge explosion."

The draconian sage was visibly hesitant.

Zhang Lie shrugged. "We\'ll have to start excavating this black metal sooner or later, or it\'d be a bomb waiting to explode. If we can utilize it well, however, it could become a strong weapon for us instead. Research and development is always filled with risks—that\'s natural, isn\'t it?"

The draconian sage pressed, "Nothing will go wrong, will it?"

Zhang Lie replied calmly, "Don\'t worry. This is the base of activity for human hunters too, and I wouldn\'t sacrifice their lives."

The draconian sage hesitantly nodded.

Zhang Lie continued, "Furthermore, you have to assign a trusted guard to this area, or something really might happen."

The draconian sage nodded. "I truly have to thank you. If not for your discovery of this area, I wouldn\'t have realized that there was a nascent threat here." If someone with malicious intentions had uncovered the deposit beforehand...

Zhang Lie continued, "I recommend letting the aliens sort themselves out for now. They aren\'t stable enough to be fighting against each other yet, and even if there are altercations, human hunters and the members of Team Zenith will be around to stop them."

The draconian sage nodded.

With the members of Team Zenith and human hunters around, along with the warlords stationed in the region, the aliens wouldn\'t be able to make a big fuss.

Zhang Lie advised, "Start by understanding the world you now command. As the king of the world, if you don\'t understand your own world, how can you expect others to take you seriously? This deposit of black metal, for instance—you need to know what latent dangers there are around you."

The draconian sage was struck dumb.

Zhang Lie continued, "The first thing you have to do is to carefully observe the superior draconian world and see just what changes have occurred since its evolution, to avoid the presence of any threats like this one."

The draconian sage nodded.

Zhang Lie continued, "I\'ll bring Zhang Hanxiang and Hong Xi to find a spacious, isolated place where they can consume Potion #4. Work hard!"

Zhang Hanxiang sighed. "It looks like we can\'t consume the potion here, then. We\'ll have to find somewhere else."

Fortunately, the superior draconian world wasn\'t lacking in territory, especially after its evolution.

Zhang Lie, Zhang Hanxiang, and Hong Xi had taken only a few steps when Zhang Lie suddenly stopped short. The draconian sage wondered what was happening until Zhang Lie pointed at the sky.

"Unlock the space around here, please. I can\'t get out!"

The draconian sage belatedly nodded and disabled the spatial restraints.

The moment he did so, the members of Team Zenith appeared.

Sun Mengmeng asked, "What happened? I felt the space in this region lock up."

Fang Yi asked, "Is there an enemy invasion?"

Zhang Lie asked, "Why are all of you here?"

Sun Mengmeng replied, "We saw your [Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar], Captain, so we rushed over immediately."

Zhang Lie waved a hand at them. "It\'s not a big deal. I was just summoning the draconian sage."

Sun Mengmeng patted her chest. "Captain, you scared us!"

Fang Yi asked, "Then why was the space locked up?"

Zhang Lie pointed at the black metal at their feet. "Therein lies the answer."

Sun Mengmeng glanced at the metal curiously. "What\'s so special about this metal?"

Zhang Lie replied, "You all have very good timing. The draconian sage and I were just thinking that we needed reliable guards to safeguard this area."
