Master of Science and Technology - Chapter 42
Translator: Darling | Editor: Darling
This so-called map was actually just a presentation from AI that Ye Zan had made using the materials in his dimension. This type of product would be considered useless in the technical world, but it was still useful here.
“Was this also made by Grandmaster Mo?” Of all the students, only Li Yun dared to ask.
Ye Zan nodded. After all, he had the communication device. He didn’t need to worry about using Grandmaster Mo as a deflection device.
In reality, regarding the taser and battling gear, even if Ye Zan didn’t explain anything, the students probably had already given Grandmaster Mo credit for their creation. After all, in the whole of Yu Qing Sect, there was just Grandmaster Mo, this one Yuan Yin Grandmaster. Who would believe that Ye Zan, a Refining State cultivator, could make such things?
“Alright, I’ve already given you the resources. From here on out, we will work according to what was planned. Kong Qingyun will lead the group. I will not be going with you.” Ye Zan finished distributing, cleaned up his stuff, and dropped this bomb of information on the students.
Hearing this, the students were all shocked. Before entering the Closed Realm, they had been constantly reminded. Even if they did not get anything out of this trip, they still had to ensure that their Great Uncle would not be harmed in the slightest. Although he was very powerful, he was still, but a Refining State cultivator. And in this realm, the creatures that could bring danger to a Refining State were uncountable.
“Great Uncle, please reconsider. This Closed Realm is too dangerous. If you go alone and something happens…” Kong Qingyun was very conflicted as he spoke. Ye Zan’s generational level was too high. His advice could not be spoken too lightly or too heavily.
However, Ye Zan remained unbothered. Tossing his hands, he said: “Relax, relax, I won’t take my own safety as a joke. As I’ve made this decision, I obviously have some tricks up my sleeve. It’s just, I can’t tell you guys now.”
“But…”
Some other students wanted to say more, but Ye Zan wouldn’t give them the chance, promptly saying: “Ok, it’s settled then. Don’t waste any more time. Go do what you need to do. I’ll be leaving.”
Finishing, Ye Zan turned without waiting for an answer and left. He passed directly through the base and quickly disappeared into the forest.
“What should we do?” Kong Qingyun and the rest of the students were conflicted. So Great Uncle wanted to leave… well they couldn’t just tie him up! But if he really left and ran into danger, how could they report back to the Sect?
“This little Great Uncle is a little too reckless, how could he just leave like that?” In Li Yun’s heart, Ye Zan’s senior status had disappeared like that. In an instant, her title for him had changed to “little Great Uncle”.
However, Bai Lian, perhaps due to her blind faith in Ye Zan, was silent for a moment before saying: “If Great Uncle has made such a decision, then he must have his reasons. I think we should listen to him, and finish what was planned.”
The students debated for a moment and realized that this was no use as the person had already left. Even if they chased him, there would be no solution. As for talk of following and secretly protecting him, they knew they didn’t have the ability. When the time came, they would probably have to be rescued by the man himself.
“Alright, then we’ll act according to plan.” Kong Qingyun helplessly said. The Qing Yun students thus unified their ideas, and, after slight preparation, brought the four Secular Warriors and left the base altogether.
Over on Ye Zan’s side, after leaving the base, he didn’t walk far before finding a secret location and stopping. Immediately, he tapped the band on his wrist and his dimension’s door appeared before him.
Ye Zan had done a lot of preparation for.this trip to the Closed Realm. But he had placed most of it in this dimension because, being a Refining State cultivator, he wasn’t able to have a carrying space, and most of the items he had carried with him he had already given to the students.
The dimension’s doors opened, and, immediately, robots carrying objects came out. In no time, sixteen camouflaged drones had flown up silently into the white, jade-like sky. Quickly, the AI chips in Ye Zan’s brain began to process the discovered information.
The drones used cameras to take high-quality pictures of the terrain… The products were much clearer than the hand-drawn ones from Yu Qing. However, he would need to process these pictures before sending them to Yu Qing students’ smart screens.
Speaking purely on use, these technical machines were no less than the magical objects of this world. Ye Zan’s cultivation was also too low to use those treasures. That was also why Ye Zan had wanted to work alone. He could explain ordinary objects, but, high tech observation devices? Those were comparable to magical devices. There was no way he could explain that to the students.
At this time, in the moving Yu Qing group, Li Yun suddenly raised the paper in her hands, trembling, as she shouted to the others,
“Aye, Seniors, look, there’s something appearing on here!” Li Yun was holding the so-called “map” Ye Zan had given her prior.
Kong Qingyun and the others were startled, as they thought Li Yun had run into danger. Turning to look at her, they finally understood what she had meant. Bai Lian walked to where Li Yun was, and, taking account of the situation, knocked her on the head before saying: “What is there to be so startling about? Everyone was just scared by you.”
Li Yun held her head, knowing she was wrong, and sheepishly smiled at her Senior. After, she took the map in her hands and showed it to the rest of the group, saying: “Quick! Look! The piece of paper Great Uncle gave us has things coming out of it. It looks like a map!”
Kong Qingyun and the rest of the students took out their papers. Upon seeing it, they were all taken aback. The originally clear, snow-white piece of paper had suddenly been covered by markings. With their understanding of the Closed Realm’s Map, they could tell that it was showing the markings of the Closed Realm with a single glance.
“It really is a map!” Some students exclaimed excitedly.
The students took this map and compared it to their earlier one and immediately saw the difference. The original map had roughly drawn a terrain, with circles denoting forests and waves denoting rivers. It was all so simple and on flat paper. There was no way it would be able to tell if differences in height or the denseness of forests.
But looking at the new map Great Uncle had given, he saw that it was split with colors and different textures. The markings for “forest ” were actually made of trees. The mountains and waters were also undoubtedly realistic. It was as if the Closed Realm had been miniaturized.
“Kong Qingyun, if you hear this please answer!”
A voice suddenly sounded next to Kong Qingyun’s ear. He was taken aback and looked around him. However, he thought that the sound was familiar and finally remembered his “Thousand Mile Communication”. He quickly acted as Ye Zan had taught, pressing the speaker near to his throat, softly asking: “Great Uncle, is that you?”
“Have you seen the map?”
“Yes, Great Uncle. I’ve seen it. Where are you right now?” Kong Qingyun was a little disoriented, lifting his eyes to look around him. This feeling was like talking to the air.
“You don’t need to worry about me. I’m safer than you guys are right now. I’m going to tell you how to use the map right now. Listen carefully and teach the others.”
“Yes, Great Uncle, I am listening.” Seeing that Ye Zan was unwilling to answer, Kong Qingyun could only give up on asking about his circumstance, timidly listening to the other end as Ye Zan explained how to use the map.
