Chapter 58 - 57: Old Rival?
President Qin obviously didn’t want to talk more about Yi Yu, and directly changed the topic, “By the way, did you bring the two attribute stones with you? I happen to be free today and could help you figure out how to use them.” According to Luo Xiang, even Thirteenth Bureau might not be able to clear the next tower within three days, likewise for Bai Qi.
So to be safe, it was better to try and increase Bai Qi’s strength as much as possible.
“Uh, I’ve already used one of them.”
Bai Qi scratched his head, “I don’t know how, but when Beta touched the blast stone, it evolved.”
President Qin:”…”
“Are you sure your talent isn’t accelerated evolution?”
Bai Qi shook his head repeatedly and then ran out before President Qin could react.
“President, I have to go back and organize some data, so I won’t chat anymore.” Watching Bai Qi run away like a rabbit, President Qin quietly pulled back his hand, feeling suddenly exhausted.
It was too casual for pets to evolve these days, right?
It was quite different from when he was training them in his time…
Woof woof woof!
(Human, something else is coming out!)
The Husky, who was studying the Easy Mechanical Manual with Bai Qi, suddenly raised his head and began to bark wildly in the direction of Undead
Hill.
“It’s okay, they probably just opened the next tower.
Bai Qi glanced at the time, it was the last day of Gusu City’s exclusive exploration rights to Lamentation Tower.
It turned out that the Federal Organization had cracked the gate of the next tower within one day.
According to this trend, in three days, he would probably only be able to get a little soup.
However, being able to exchange for a mythical material and a manual for Four Stage mechanics was not a loss.
Moreover, he was now completely certain that Husky could sense the appearance of the Secret Realm Tower.
“If we get a chance in the future, we must pay attention to spiritual materials. If Beta can sense the birth of the Secret Realm Tower in advance, we’ll make a fortune.”
Bai Qi imagined the sight of Husky digging out Secret Realm Towers everywhere in the future and couldn’t help but chuckle.
Arroo?
(Human, are you crazy?)
With a puzzled look on his face, the Husky looked at Bai Qi, who immediately punched the Husky and said, “Stop looking around, did you remember the tactics I told you about?”
Woof!
(Are you looking down on someone? Besides, are we discussing tactics now?) The Husky rolled his eyes, controlling a mechanical arm to grab a small metal ball of varying size and type from the row in front of him and threw it at the ice wall in front of him.
Boom!
The metal exploded instantly, blasting a small hole in the ice wall. “Cough cough… icm radius brass ball, explosion radius 3cm, mediocre effect.” Bai Qi glanced at the detector beside him, quickly recorded the data, and on top of this row of data, dozens of similar rows of data had already been recorded. The Husky’s blast strengthening skill could store the blast power in the metal and then explode as needed. Although it didn’t seem as direct as the blast claw, Bai Qi saw it as more valuable for development.
Adding blast power to a mechanical being that already had explosive power would yield a power greater than the sum of its parts.
What he had to do now was to find the metal with the highest compatibility with Blast Power.
“As expected, Kl alloy has the highest energy storage capacity and is much more stable, but the energy transfer speed is still a bit slow, but for now, it will have to do.”
After Alpha had repaired the ice wall n times, Bai Qi finally screened out the metal with the highest overall properties, then opened the internal website of the association, and entered the task area to look around.
As a member of the Beast Master Association, Bai Qi could also post tasks on this internal website. In order to find the metal he favored, Bai Qi tried to post a task on it.
“is the poster planning to make a bomb? Hey, are you a demon, I want to report.”
“The one upstairs, zz, verified.”
“+2”
“+23333-”
“Did the original poster run to the wrong place? This problem sounds like something a mechanic would encounter.”
-Not necessarily, those of us with fusion talents also need this kind of metal to make weapons.”
“Oh my god, fusion talent! Respectfully admiring the big shot!”
“Paying respects to the big shot!”
“Long live the emperor… uh, sorry, wrong place.”
Why were there so many eccentric comments on the forum of the Association? Bai Qi frowned and quickly skimmed past those meaningless replies, finally finding the information he wanted in an unnoticeable corner.
Black Mountain Old Dog: “If you want to simultaneously ensure energy storage capacity, stability and transmission speed, ordinary native metals won’t work. It would have to be an alloy. If you’re interested, you can try the Titanium Platinum Alloy, it should meet your needs.”
Titanium Platinum Alloy? Why did it sound so familiar?
Bai Qi pondered but couldn’t remember exactly where he’d heard the name, so he decided to directly ask Black Mountain Old Dog.
After waiting for seven or eight minutes, Black Mountain Old Dog responded.
“Gusu City, third floor of Jiuding Mall.”
Jiuding Mall?
A shopping mall under Xia’s Group?
Was it already built?
Seeing Black Mountain Old Dog’s reply, Bai Qi finally remembered where he had heard the name Titanium Platinum Alloy.
It seemed Xia Xuan once mentioned it during one of Professor Chu’s classes? They really managed to develop it.
Bai Qi thanked Black Mountain Old Dog, collected his two pets into the Beast Control Space and headed straight to Jiuding Mall.
“WOW, so this is what being backed by a conglomerate feels like, it’s on another level compared to the commercial streets.”
Looking at the shopping center in front of him, which looked like a large cauldron, Bai Qi couldn’t help but praise its grandeur. Seeing what was for sale inside made his eyes spin.
Xia’s group was a rising conglomerate in the Federation, its business was almost entirely related to Mechanical Engineering. Their prices were pretty high, not suitable for DS teenagers like him.
But now, he had turned things around.
Suppressing his impulse to shop, Bai Qi headed straight for the stores on the third floor.
“Titanium Platinum Alloy? I’m sorry, but we’re currently out of stock. If you need it, I can recommend some other alloys to you.” After listening to Bai Qi’s purpose, the third floor’s shop assistant apologized, shook his head, and started recommending other alloys to him.
“For example, this Taishan Alloy is similar to the Titanium Platinum Alloy, and its properties are only slightly different. You can consider it.
Bai Qi picked up the Taishan Alloy, weighed it in his hand, and rejected it immediately.
Husky’s stature was too small, the weight of this Taishan Alloy was too heavy. If they used it on Husky, he could forget about moving quickly.
“Don’t like it? No worries, we still have…”
The shop assistant introduced Bai Qi to some different metals, but they were all common alloys. Bai Qi looked around casually, but none of them really interested him.
Forget it, let’s make do with the Ki alloy for now.
Bai Qi walked around but didn’t find any alloys he favored. He was about to leave when a tall and thin figure blocked his way.
Bai Qi tried to sidestep it and leave, but the figure still blocked his path.
“Excuse me.”
“Huh- is this your attitude towards an old opponent?
Old opponent?
Bai Qi looked up, and was completely dumbfounded when he saw Xia Xuan, who was standing in front of him with a proud face.
So, having one fight makes you an old opponent now?
