Chapter 109 – Void minerals
Haiming Town, the restricted area.
The entire area was surrounded and sealed off by the Sky Eye Society. The sound of gunfire and artillery filled the air. The soldiers poured their firepower from behind cover, but it seemed difficult to stop the distorted targets within the smoke.
A military jeep was thrown out of the smoke by an astonishing force, crashing onto the ground and scattering its tires like flying discs. The driver and passenger managed to escape from the vehicle just before it was thrown out, which was fortunate in their misfortune.
"Where are the reinforcements? Haven't they arrived yet?" The squad leader shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Reinforcements? I thought all of our Transcendents were lying on stretchers!" His comrade replied amidst the deafening sound of artillery fire.
This was not an exaggeration. For such an underdeveloped town, the two permanent personnel were their only Transcendent power.
In the past few years, they had been able to handle all kinds of extraordinary matters, but recently, with the worsening situation of Shadow Demons and Cunning Beasts in various places, small places like this were the first to become overwhelmed.
"I don't know. I heard reinforcements were dispatched from Kantu and could arrive at any moment."
"The reinforcements have arrived!"
This was undoubtedly the shot in the arm that the struggling soldiers needed. The military transport vehicle stopped in front of the position, and the cargo door of the transport container slowly opened. Everyone's spirits were lifted, imagining that a heavily armed team and high-ranking Transcendents from the big city would emerge from the huge transport container.
But there was none.
Inside the spacious and empty metal container, there was only a...
Panda?
Black and white, looking small, it lay on the metal compartment board, soundly asleep.
Everyone: ?
At the first moment, everyone suspected that headquarters had accidentally delivered the wrong cargo. We're in a battle, what's the meaning of bringing such a cute thing?
As if feeling the glaring sunlight, the little bean sleepily opened its eyes, rubbed its dark circles with its fluffy little paws, wearing a bewildered expression of "Oh? Have we arrived?"
Then it lazily yawned and jumped out of the transport vehicle in the bewildered gazes of everyone, lethargically crossing the frontlines.
It faced a grotesque and strange monster. Its brownish-yellow skin was as tough as steel, with bone spurs protruding from its arms, and its eyes were blood-red.
But even the Cunning Beast stopped its rampage and instead lowered its head, squinting at this harmless little thing.
Its expression seemed to say, "Are you serious?"
Is this it?
The Cunning Beast looked at it disdainfully, seeming even a bit lazy to make a move.
Until the little bean's body trembled, and its size began to expand. Its black and white fur stood on end, and its body grew longer and taller. The Cunning Beast's gaze changed from looking down to looking up, and its face of disdain gradually turned into astonishment.
"Roar!"
With a loud roar, the little bean's bear paw struck out. The Cunning Beast instinctively raised its arm, feeling a tremendous force, causing its entire body to shake and the ground beneath its feet to crack. Its arm, along with half of its body, sank into the ground.
The little bean followed up with another palm strike, directly causing the Cunning Beast's head to buzz, swaying unsteadily as if it was about to fall. Then the little bean grabbed its sunken right leg and lifted it up, smashing it against the ground like a windmill.
A dazzling series of fierce strikes, all the onlookers heard were a continuous explosion of booming sounds, the earth trembling, and flying debris. In the astonished gazes of everyone, the Cunning Beast was instantly blasted into a mosaic.
As the dust gradually settled, the squad leader looked at the black and white towering figure behind the smoke, his gaze gradually becoming dull.
What's the deal with this panda? Did it come back from military training?
"Captain, it has been confirmed." Someone next to him said, "This panda is a reinforcement sent by the 'Endless Alliance'."
The squad leader: .
Hmm, the panda is also a member of the alliance.
Instinctively, he felt like making a sarcastic comment for a moment, but then he thought that all of them combined couldn't compare to this panda, so he swallowed his words.
All he could say was that the alliance was truly unimaginable.
After finishing the fight, the little bean returned to its normal size and yawned again.
Lacking enthusiasm, it really wanted to eat.
Chapter Chao, the person in charge of the Haiming Town branch, was also delighted when he received the good news.
"The Endless Alliance is indeed powerful, even a panda should not be underestimated." Chapter Chao was in a great mood. "I must have this panda, it will be mine!"
"Kantu also mentioned that this. Panda Commissioner may need some special ingredients."
"Ingredients? What's that?"
Chapter Chao waved his hand.
"Anything can be eaten. How much does it cost to eat?"
"."
Endless Hall.
"Material scan complete."
In a transparent vessel, certain special black materials were placed, surrounded by various devices.
"A total of 750 grams of 'Void Ore', can be used for the preparation of Rank B promotion potions." The hall's system displayed."The Sky Eye folks are quite generous."
This was the crucial ingredient missing for the promotion to Sequence B potion, and Jiang Bei had been lurking on the Transcendent trading websites around the world for a long time, but it was always out of stock.
The Transcendent material inventory of an electronic wizard base he had previously taken over seemed to have it, but unfortunately, it had been wasted by their boring experiments before Jiang Bei arrived. Although Jiang Bei took almost all the remaining materials, he was still a bit upset.
Unexpectedly, this key item appeared in the gift from Sky Eye this time, which was not in vain for the alliance's recent help.
With this, the promotion to Sequence B is just around the corner.
【New types of potions have been added to the inventory, please check.】
A new message popped up on the main interface of the hall. Jiang Bei swiped open the message reminder and saw the prompt at a glance.
This was naturally the result of An Ran's research and development. Last week, she had just exchanged for a chance to guide the Transcendent with contribution points - actually, it was the right to use a quantum conversion field.
After that guidance, her thoughts were suddenly cleared, and she used this week to plant new crops and extract and synthesize new types of Transcendent potions.
Energy potions. It can instantly restore the consumed energy, allowing the user to instantly revive from a drained state and fight for three hundred more rounds.
Unfortunately, it seems to have a drug resistance problem. A person can only take one dose in a short time for the best effect, the second dose is also useful but inevitably discounted. If you forcibly take the third dose, it will not only have no effect, but it will also be toxic to the body.
As the saying goes, things should not be done in threes, and two shots at a time are indeed almost enough, and the third shot is really a bit unrestrained.
And unlike other potions that treat something, Jiang Bei feels this medicine is quite good for him.
After all, he doesn't need to recover blood or anything, as so far his health bar has never moved when he goes on missions. But it is necessary to replenish the kidney.
Taking energy potions might make him last longer!
Who wouldn't be tempted by this?
In addition, although General Wang is always holed up in the lab and causing explosions every few days, he has produced quite a few results. The alliance's weapon inventory has also been replenished these days.
Now the basic standard equipment for newcomers has been fully upgraded, and it's no longer as shabby as when She Miao could only have a knife and a lightning eagle. The pulse pistol has become the basic standard equipment, and its performance is highly praised when fighting against ordinary Shadow Demons.
But Dog Da Hu's research and development is not always powerful. Even according to the statistics of the alliance members, three to five out of every ten pieces of equipment produced by Dog Da Hu are of unclear meaning.
Some of them might be useful in special scenes, but many of them seem to be destined to gather dust in the warehouse.
Jiang Bei scrolled through the inventory list, feeling a bit shortchanged looking at these things. It felt a bit like drawing cards from a card pool, having to draw a bunch of meaningless things stuffed in by unscrupulous merchants to fill the card pool before drawing what you want.
Then he suddenly had a thought, a flash of inspiration.
Hmm. Wait a minute.
So why don't we do business with our good brothers at Sky Eye?
