Zhou Yi once again arrived at the Spark Plain.

He, along with Cang Hai Jun and others, donned rubber insulating suits.

This place is shrouded with thunder and lightning that never dissipate year-round, each flash connecting the sky and the earth, like a giant electric field laboratory.

The Cat God flickered a few times and soon brought over two local electric cats.

These two electric cats were covered in dense electric arcs and were confirmed by the [Panoramic Reading] to be Light Core Bodies, one LV1, the other LV2.

The LV1 electric cat is called Electric Brother, and the LV2 is named Yun He.

Zhou Yi synchronized his consciousness with them.

"This is the chairman of our company."

The Cat God introduced, "Now I would like to understand some information about the Transparent Castles in the sky from you two."

Zhou Yi politely said, "Sorry to bother you two, there will surely be a reward afterward."

Electric Brother was very straightforward: "With your strength, if we help you, you will definitely help us. Based on your reputation before, even ordinary electric cats have had their promises fulfilled, so I doubt you'd go back on your word with us."

"Actually, I only have one request, as long as you agree, whatever you let me do, I will do."

"Please speak."

"I want to follow you."

Electric Brother continued: "Although I previously took part in the attack against Mao Dali, and I surely didn't hold back. But I didn't know the situation then. Since we can't beat you guys, joining you seems reasonable, right?"

Zhou Yi was speechless for a moment: "Reasonable. Okay."

"Then you are my big brother, Chairman Big Brother, whatever you say, I will do." Electric Brother said, "From now on, just call me Little Electric."

Zhou Yi corrected: "We are a company, so address me as Chairman."

"Yes, Chairman!"

Electric Brother immediately corrected himself.

Next to him, Yun He was much more reserved: "I'm getting old and don't want to relocate. I just want to live peacefully here, hoping you won't disrupt the Spark Plain."

"Rest assured, I only intend to rescue the old humans trapped here. Those being the consciousnesses imprisoned." Zhou Yi said.

"I see..."

Zhou Yi looked at the two electric cats: "How many Transparent Castles are there in the sky?"

Electric Brother blurted out: "37. But after the one with the core removed, there are only 36 left."

Again, 37.

This number matched with the Golden Elephants.

Zhou Yi asked: "How many are used as prisons? How many for electric cat incubation?"

"Chairman, it's not like that."

Electric Brother, having just joined, was very eager: "Every Transparent Castle is a prison. Electric cats are incubated from within them. Initially, electric cats were prisoners here."

"Once they become Light Core Bodies, they can return. But returning is useless because we can't touch the consciousnesses there, although energy is more abundant."

Yun He also said: "After that guy left, the castles without cores can't birth electric cats. The electric cats of Spark Plain themselves are continuously dwindling, being recruited by you to the outside world... Now it's becoming more and more desolate here."

It was referring to Qing Liu.

Zhou Yi thought for a moment.

He decided to let Qing Liu try, to reassemble the Transparent Castles and see.

Hei Fu quickly transported the hydrogen-based lifeform along with its Transparent House to high altitudes.

The Cat God accompanied the whole process, acting as a temporary generator to maintain Qing Liu in a solid state.

Waited for over an hour.

The Cat God sent information from the other side.

"Chairman, the Transparent Castles in the sky automatically connect with each other, some time was just spent because Qing Liu didn't send any signals."

"It indicated inside the Transparent Castle for me to dismantle it."

"Do you need to dismantle it?"

Zhou Yi said: "Just follow its requirements."

Soon.

The transparent container was sent back to the ground again.

Qing Liu still appeared like a Snowman, but now it had grown legs, pacing back and forth inside, seemingly pondering something.

Yuan Xiao whispered: "Chairman, it's mimicking you, that's how you look when you think."

Zhou Yi looked at the hydrogen-based lifeform inside: "Have you grasped the situation?"

"Cultivator, I have grasped everything."

"There are many consciousnesses inside, totaling 1.06 million. Originally there were 800 million, but most were consumed."

"These consciousnesses are all locked inside each Transparent Castle, trapped by the light within at different positions."

Qing Liu continued pacing, imitating Zhou Yi's posture.

"Stop, stop, don't walk around while speaking."

"Oh. I see."

It finally steadied itself.

"You said they are locked by the light?"

"Yes."

Qing Liu said, "Inside, there's a special light core using hydrogen elements. It seems like only I can activate it."

"Can you release them?"

"I can't release them."

It explained, "I'm not strong enough, I can only use it, not change it. What I can do is send them through the specific channel leading to the outside, to enter that location."

Qing Liu pointed out an arrow.

With the guidance of Cat God's extension, it finally locked onto the destination being the Meat Mountain area.

Zhou Yi felt a stir in his heart.

Turns out Meat Mountain is an assembly workshop.

Old human consciousnesses and life carriers are fused to create electric cats, killer rats, and golden elephants over there.

"Even for this process of delivery, I can only choose to send or not send. All subsequent steps are out of my control. All I know is that some will directly become electric cats, and others will enter over there, and the selection is all automatically operated by the Transparent Castle."

"Cultivator, I'm too weak, I can't help you... I'm useless. Maybe only when I become a Light Core Body, I can do it, but not now."

Qing Liu sat on the ground, looking somewhat depressed.

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "You've already helped a lot."

"Really?"

"Of course, really. I already know how the process works."

"That's great! I still have some usefulness!"

Zhou Yi thought over things in his mind.

That is to say, Qing Liu is also part of the entire assembly line. Even in a muddled state, it can accomplish its part of the function because what it does is very simple.

Zhou Yi confirmed again, "You said there were originally 800 million old human consciousnesses inside?"

"Yes. When I contacted those castles inside, I knew, but now only so many are left. They were all sent out, as you said, probably manufactured into those kinds of creatures."

In other words.

At the explosion of Circular Flow, the Seeders were on the scene.

They captured the consciousnesses of 800 million people, about 10% of Earth's population at that time, used for their bio-experimentation and modification.

Zhou Yi thought silently.

From a positive perspective, at least there are still 1.06 million old humans, who are actually still alive.

There needs to be a way to rescue them.

With them, the transformation and development of the Wasteland will be much faster, and the revival of human civilization would accelerate.

However, hydrogen-based life forms grow extremely slowly, it is not possible to grow into a Light Core Body in a short time.

Relying on Qing Liu is not enough to unlock the aerial prison.

Zhou Yi asked Cat God, "Is there no possibility of breaking it open by force?"

"It's very difficult."

Cat God cautiously said, "Chairman, based on my observations and tests, the Transparent Castle Group itself has special power that maintains its operation, with energy intensity confirmed as Transmutator Level."

"If we let the White King take action and forcibly open this prison, it is likely to trigger the countermeasures inside, making it difficult for the consciousnesses inside to survive."

The Seeders' designed prisons are hard to break through.

Rescuing the old humans seems hopeless.

Zhou Yi immediately withdrew his people from the Forbidden Continent, returning to Sand Port to plan further.

The next day.

There was good news from the Moon side.

Jacob's assistant Ah Wei returned to report, "Chairman, there has been progress on the side with the little man in the bottle!"

He looked exhausted, his lips cracked, appearing a bit haggard and sleep-deprived.

Zhou Yi handed him a can of drink, "Make sure to take more rest and vacations, don't work overtime for no reason, work can never be finished."

"Understood."

Ah Wei opened the drink can and took a couple of big gulps.

He wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "Chairman, Guanghan Palace is attempting to project Xu Yuhang, by projecting him into Hina's personal consciousness, so that the two consciousnesses can be together."

"However, this process has faced many technical difficulties. Traditional Light Imprint and Mirror Cutting Technology have always failed."

"So, the mechanical and electrical experts switched to Heavenly People Gem technology, trying to refract Xu Yuhang using Black Gemstone."

"Turns out it directly brought Xu Yuhang out!"

Zhou Yi's face was strange, "Are you saying it brought him out of the bottle completely? No time limits?"

"Yes, that's what I mean!!"

Ah Wei grinned, "Although it's still a projection, this projection has no time limit. This wasn't possible before, as the Mechanical City has used Heavenly People Gem before, which was only more stable than the Mirror Cutting effect but couldn't break the time cycle."

"But this time is completely different."

"The gemstone was able to bring Xu Yuhang out, and also Kobayashi Hina, which succeeded as well."

"The Moon Affairs Department and Guanghan Palace did comparative experiments on Mars and Earth, and couldn't replicate it, only on the Moon it was possible. Lady Night God says it is due to the Moon's unique nature."

"Please go and check it out!"

Zhou Yi was overjoyed to hear this.

When you're at the end of one road, there's a new path at home! The rescue of old humans has hope!
