Beyond Yangde's Ambition X The Return of Beyond Yangde

Inside the room.

The two remained silent.

Kevin quieted down.

After thinking for a moment, Biscuit said, "Haven't you thought about finding a good site to build on during the second exploration?"

Kevin didn't even need to refute it; Kim, standing beside him, spoke up directly.

"It's very troublesome. You know, just the round trip could take more than a year or even two years."

"This time we have brought back an absolutely perfect result, so the next exploration will definitely be extremely grand."

"Specific preparations will definitely be needed for the territory. No matter how large the army is, the supplies it carries are not unlimited and cannot cope with all aspects."

The preparations for having a safe base and the preparations for exploring and finding a safe base are two completely different things.

Once Kim explained it, Biscuit understood.

The environment of the Dark Continent is ultimately bizarre and varied.

The needs and important things of a territory vary depending on its location and surrounding environment.

Adapt to local conditions.

Furthermore, if the safety of the area surrounding the territory cannot be guaranteed, should we bring those individuals who are not strong in combat but whose Nen ability are extremely useful the second time?

Will the research experts and scholars be included?

These are all problems.

Therefore, it is necessary to determine the territory's boundaries and plans before returning.

Kevin skipped the topic.

He looked at the two of them and said.

"Aside from this, what about the second exploration?"

"Other hopes All-Curing Herb, Longevity Rice, and the Triple-Origin Water —and possibly Alchemy Plant that we've already obtained."

Upon hearing Kevin's words, the two of them immediately looked up and stared at him.

His brows furrowed.

"You don't mean you want it all, do you?" Jin asked somewhat seriously.

"Is that not allowed?" Kevin asked.

The tone was matter-of-fact.

"Can we give up herbs that All-Curing Herb and Longevity Rice?"

Who could possibly give up these two most valuable things?

"Even though I haven't obtained the Triple-Origin Water and the Alchemy Plant, I know that these two materials are absolutely top-tier Fusion Agent, and they are the kind that can be obtained reliably. Can I really give them up?"

It's important to know that among Kevin's materials, the most troublesome one is actually the Fusion Agent.

The reason why various medicines and materials are still waiting is because a suitable Fusion Agent has not yet been found.

From the beginning of pharmaceutical manufacturing until now, all these years later, this thing has always been the most troublesome thing.

The Triple-Origin Water and Alchemy Plant mentioned in the book already perfectly express this characteristic, even just from the written information.

Once you get your hands on it, the results will only be better than you imagined.

That's for sure.

With these two potentially versatile Fusion Agent, Kevin's potion-making will proceed at a rapid pace.

Moreover, this is Fusion Agent of the highest potential.

Definitely A-Rank, top-tier.

The S-Rank potion that we can only look forward to now will definitely require these two as Fusion Agent.

Biscuit and King remained silent, unable to offer any rebuttal.

Upon arriving in the Dark Continent, Kevin's Nen ability became extremely important, without exception.

It could be said to have become the priority of everything.

It seems impossible for Kevin to give up.

"Moreover, getting to these places from the Dark Continent is simply a pipe dream; the journey alone could take decades—"

"The fastest way is to return to human society and then take the shortcut from the Gatekeeper."

Kevin's exploration of the Dark Continent could not be a round-the-world trip like Don Fuglits's.

They were undoubtedly a great success this time.

So Kevin was still thinking about whether he could use this to reach some terms with the Gatekeeper.

Without having to make these round trips, one can obtain the help of Guide and quickly travel to other places.

But you can't put all your eggs in one basket, and Kevin can't put all his hopes on one place.

That's why he needs to quickly improve the strength of others to help him obtain these things.

Because he couldn't possibly go there himself.

This round trip could take several years.

The territory would not allow Kevin to be away for an extended period of time.

"Your ambitions have really grown quite large."

Biscuit suddenly sighed.

Kevin really couldn't refute that.

Before arriving on the Dark Continent, their plan was always to retreat once they had secured a glimmer of hope.

Building Forward Base was merely the last and most elusive goal.

But who could have imagined that this trip to the Dark Continent would be so perfect, achieving all their goals, including that elusive objective?

It's even better than I expected.

Because it allows you to directly establish a territory, which is essentially a colony.

Moreover, Kevin's strength has improved to a level that was previously unexpected.

As one learns more about the Dark Continent, one naturally becomes more accustomed to this region, and the fear that previously filled one with endless fantasies about the Dark Continent disappears.

This place has become a tangible reality, imprinted in my mind.

Conversely, alternative ideas naturally emerged.

Although many things that stand alongside hope appear in the book.

But the Five Great Hopes are undoubtedly the most useful things for humanity.

This is a treasure that five major powers carefully selected and were willing to pay a great price to acquire.

It can be said that...

It's the best of the best materials.

The Unmanned Stone has already proven this point.

Even using Unmanned Stone as materials is only one of its most insignificant uses.

And without a doubt, the Unmanned Stone is the least suitable of the Five Great Hopes for use as a material.

But it is still the best material.

Its very existence is an energy source; any material that requires energy can then be used without hesitation by the Unmanned Stone.

If the Unmanned Stone is so useful, then there's no need to think about any other hope.

And after one's strength exceeds one million.

Kevin, now more confident in himself, naturally wanted to seize the rest of his hopes as well.

"But you're right, we can't give up on these hopes, and we definitely won't give up on the others who come later either."

Biscuit nodded and said with a sigh.

Biscuit couldn't possibly ignore the fact that Longevity Rice was a product of his own.

She's extremely concerned about her appearance and age.

She's almost sixty.

In a sense, she's a real mother-in-law now.

With that thought in mind, Biscuit jumped off the bench and walked straight outside.

Kevin gave her a strange look.

Why did you leave so suddenly?

We're still discussing business, aren't we?

"There's not much to say. I've rediscovered that drive I had when I was young."

"Don't bother me again, huh! So what if you're Knight Rank? Who do you think you are?"

Kevin smiled as he watched Biscuit leave, then turned back to her.

Jin shrugged and walked out with a smile.

"My goal is a million, otherwise I won't be able to explore the Dark Continent freely."

"Are you saying I'm petty?" Biscuit, who had already left the room, questioned from outside.

Kevin smiled and shook his head.

He got up and went back to the Pharmaceutical Room.

I put the book in the drawer.

However, when Kevin put the book in, he noticed something else in the drawer.

He picked up the Nen tool that resembled a pocket Pocket Watch.

"It's a useful item, but it's not very practical in the Dark Continent."

These fancy things.

Let's just stick to researching the Space Gem.

Being able to carry more things with you, this kind of simple design is actually the most practical.

As for the improvement of strength.

Just spray the medicine; there's no shortage of Thick White Milk right now.

However, once the power boost from the Thick White Milk reaches its limit...

The next phase, with its potions that can provide a stronger boost to Nen, is still uncertain and may be delayed indefinitely.

Imaginary New Continent.

--

The ship, returning from the true Dark Continent, slowly approached this New Continent under the escort of the fleet.

Standing on the deck.

Maitai looked out over the harbor.

"It's only been a little over a year since we came and went, right? And the port is already quite well-developed."

Piyon, playing with his phone and watching the situation in the harbor, said...

By this time, the port had been developed in a way that was indistinguishable from large ports in human society.

But just over a year ago, this was a desolate natural harbor.

Looking inward from the port, one can see a large number of buildings densely packed together.

There are also several giant cruise ships in the port.

You can even see the enormous B. W. ship docked there.

Clearly, colonial activities were still ongoing.

It did not stop because of the change of the leader and the political system of the Kakin Empire.

"Finally, I can see land! I was floating on the sea, and I almost threw up."

Saiyu picked at his ear and walked over.

Upon hearing the voice of Saiyu, the group looked at him.

Saiyu was still wrapped in bandages at this time, indicating that he had not fully recovered on the way back.

"It's really unlucky that your voice recovered first, allowing you to speak again."

After glancing at Journey to the Saiyu, Piyon made a sarcastic remark without any politeness.

Saiyu merely glared at her and then ignored her.

"You rascal, you'd better go back and properly withdraw from the Twelve Zodiacs."

Piyon was somewhat relentless in his criticism of Journey to the Saiyu.

Before embarking on their journey to the Dark Continent, they probably already suspected that there was a traitor among the Twelve Zodiacs who sided with Beyond.

However, due to internal trust and their respective pride, they did not take any action or make it clear.

The only certainty is that in such an important operation on the Dark Continent, the other side will definitely be with Beyond and provide combat support.

The conflicts on the Dark Continent also made them realize that this person was Saiyu.

"Perhaps it's because you're so unreasonable that they won't choose you."

Saiyu looked at her and suddenly said something.

These words immediately ignited Piyon.

Yinda was standing nearby, immediately pulled the other person away. "Alright, alright, ignore him."

This time, they used Journey to the Saiyu language to pursue the attack.

"No, after all, there's gold over there, and their abilities aren't inferior to yours."

This refers to Piyon's ability to analyze and translate classical Chinese texts.

As Ruin Hunter, Jin also possesses remarkable professional skills.

You damned Monkey!

Maitai couldn't stand it anymore. "Alright, be quiet."

At this point, Porto interjected, "It looks like this ship won't be docked for long; it'll resupply and then continue its voyage, right?"

Upon hearing this question, Saiyu nodded.

" By Beyond is eager to go back now. This time, we are heroes who successfully explored the Dark Continent, brought back hope, and found a solution to the disaster."

As he spoke, a smug smile appeared on his face.

Maitai looked at him seriously and asked.

"After you get back this time, you'll definitely be eager to start preparing for the next exploration, and it will be even more grand and spectacular than this one, right?"

Upon hearing Maitai's question, Saiyu's smile faded, and he nodded seriously.

"Of course, Beyond's dream is to die on the Dark Continent, not to remain in the boring human society."

"With this success, we must immediately prepare for the next operation, which will have even more funding this time."

As he spoke of Journey to the Saiyu, he couldn't help but think about the entire operation.

If Kevin and the others hadn't intervened.

This time it will be even more perfect.

Because they will control a new great power.

After that, exploring and colonizing the Dark Continent will be much easier and more free.

Unfortunately, this outcome was not achieved.

But the main results have finally been achieved, and at worst, we can accept funding from a few major countries.

As for the terms of the agreement...

Once we reach the Dark Continent, who will recognize us?

"I wonder how Qiduo and the others are doing," Saccho suddenly said at this moment.

This immediately silenced everyone.

"I don't know what you're worried about. Kevin, whom they're with, is a monster who can accidentally enter the Dark Continent, survive, and return."

Saiyu pursed his lips and offered a reminder.

They chatted idly on the deck.

Apart from the Saiyu to the West, the others did not experience the same joy as those who had successfully returned from the Dark Continent.

Or perhaps that joy had long since been worn away at sea.

Two days later, the ship set sail again.

This time, it only took them a little over a month to officially return to human society from the Imaginary New Continent.

No news, no Succession Ceremony.

But there's no doubt that you'll be welcome.

Several major powers deployed the highest level of security to surround all those involved in this operation.

Because they did bring back hope.

The only hope.

In this situation, they will inevitably be placed under house arrest for a period of time until all their experiences and gains from this trip to the Dark Continent are confirmed.

They had anticipated this.

So it's not surprising.

Inside a heavily guarded Manor.

The other five members of the Twelve Zodiacs, besides those from Saiyu, will rest here for the time being.

The group of people, who were doing their own things in the living room, heard a knock on the door.

"That annoying guy is here again."

Piyon was playing on his phone, rolled his eyes.

They've been thoroughly annoyed lately.

I've told everyone about this experience countless times, but people still keep asking.

Even Maitai didn't have the energy to open the door.

"Oh dear, are you all so unwelcoming to this old man?"

The door was suddenly opened.

Netero, dressed in loose robes, walked in with a smile.

"Chairman!"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Netero was extremely happy to see the smiles on their faces.

"Welcome, heroes of humanity."

These words immediately made the others roll their eyes.

"Don't be so cold. Does becoming a revered hero mean you look down on this old man? That would be too hurtful to an old man like me."

As he spoke, Netero showed a sad expression, looking as if he was about to cry, and covered his face with his hands.

This left the group even more speechless.

The old man still has that strange look.

Yinda then asked loudly.

"Chairman, you've come to pick us up, right?"

Being under house arrest for so long is really annoying.

Every day it's just endless questioning, asking the same questions over and over again.

Yinda is not a patient person.

"Hehe, of course, this old man still has that kind of influence."
