My Life Anthem Covers the Globe-Chapter 350: Peerless Materials, the True Lonely City
For a moment.
Nie Bao and the others couldn’t help but show a look of annoyance. They never expected that they would be so blinded by the Rule Fragment that they couldn’t even recognize the raw materials of the Soul Crystal.
This was indeed a bit like buying the case and returning the pearl.
However.
Fortunately, Su Qi was able to perceive the extraordinary nature of this item and collected it, otherwise, it would truly be a waste of a rare treasure.
However, Su Qi didn’t know much about the Soul Crystal, so he waved his hand and said to Chu Qingfeng, "Since you know so much about this item, I’ll leave it entirely to you."
In an instant.
Chu Qingfeng couldn’t help but feel a sense of happiness, being overwhelmed by money, and incredulously asked, "Really, it’s all up to me?"
"Yes, since you were the first to recognize this item, it means it can be most useful in your hands. The situation is urgent now, and we urgently need to enhance every bit of power," Su Qi said slowly.
Hearing this, Chu Qingfeng was instantly excited. Indeed, he liked gold and silver treasures, but behind these treasures, he exchanged them for various rare materials to create powerful mechanical bodies.
And only these mechanical bodies with Soul Crystals as their core can withstand the erosion of mysterious forces, which is also the key to the Mechanical Path being able to confine the weirdness invading from it within the mechanical bodies.
"Good, these Soul Crystals refined from the materials can not only upgrade the city defense power of the Ninth District by a notch but also have some left over to create containers for Divine Weapons."
Chu Qingfeng was glowing with enthusiasm and did not hide the matter of refining containers for Divine Weapons.
Or rather, he now seemed almost unconditionally loyal to Su Qi.
He had known that in the Supreme Court, he had only received a tiny bit of Soul Crystal over so many years, all of which he had smelted down into cores for mechanical bodies to bear the mysterious power.
And now, suddenly, several tons of Soul Crystal were laid out before him, the difference was akin to the distance between reality and dreams.
"Yes, enhancing the city defense power should be the first priority." Su Qi was very satisfied with this arrangement.
Sometimes, even if one’s own strength is overwhelming, it is impossible to pay attention to every aspect of the city at all times, especially in such a peculiar period when eerie forces lurk around.
If other aspects strengthen even slightly, the pressure he faces can be alleviated.
The so-called Destruction-level one person guarding a city refers to maintaining the foundation for a city’s continuity in the presence of a Destruction-level powerhouse, not that they can fend off any disaster without casualties.
That ideal state is something that even the Supreme Saint Master might not achieve.
"Uh... and, if convenient, Lord Su Qi, you might as well display a little, so Chu Mou can estimate the rough needs for the Divine Weapons you manifest..." Chu Qingfeng poked at his hands.
Clearly, he now prioritized enhancing Su Qi’s strength, or rather, it was to show goodwill towards Su Qi.
However, Su Qi pondered for a moment.
He could currently manifest three Divine Weapons: the Hammer of Divine Punishment, the Heaven Cross, and the Flowing Light Meteor Saber.
These three currently did not require an urgent enhancement in power as they were adequate for use.
So, Su Qi pointed to Nie Bao and the others, "For the remaining, prioritize supplying them, and I’ll assess my needs as the situation unfolds."
"By the way, Principal Pei, do you have any requirements on your end?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Jing shook his head, "The Divine Weapons I currently manifest are not of high level, enhancing strength would be a waste for now, let’s discuss it later."
As soon as this was said, Yang Rihuan and the others were instantly excited. They never expected that such a precious opportunity would fall on them so easily. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Refining manifested Divine Weapons...
Even in the Holy City, such a slot required a massive amount of Otherworld campaign points to exchange, something these people had worked a lifetime for, yet never accumulated enough points.
Of course, part of this was due to the exchange of Otherworld campaign points for many other urgently needed items.
But either way, just gaining this precious opportunity for enhancement through a single day’s campaign felt almost like a dream to them.
"This... might not be appropriate, after all, Lord Su Qi is our stabilizing force, and should be the priority of enhancement," Yang Rihuan and the others couldn’t help but express their humility at this moment.
Though they greatly desired it, in the presence of the future Saint Master, they still needed to maintain a certain level of decorum and awareness.
However, Su Qi couldn’t care less about this and responded with a smile, "Do you think our chances of acquiring such material will be few?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Nie Bao and the others’ bodies suddenly shuddered.
Yes.
If someone else said this, they would probably think that person was unaware of their own limits.
But when Su Qi said it, it was hard to argue against.
They suddenly realized, this was only the first day of disaster and they’ve already gained so much, what about the future...
Just thinking about it made them involuntarily gasp.
Immediately, Yang Rihuan and the others no longer hesitated, following Chu Qingfeng to demonstrate their respective Divine Weapon Manifestation Abilities.
Next, Su Qi took a rough tour of the core departments in the City Lord’s Mansion to get a general understanding of the current state of the city.
Only then did he feel at ease to inquire about the situation of intercity communication.
This wasn’t because he feared that other Destruction-level Transcendents couldn’t hold their respective cities.
But rather, intercity communication requires collaborative maintenance. If intercity communication breaks down, it indicates that the current situation in each city isn’t great, rendering them unable to spare resources for its upkeep.
This point, Lin Nan naturally considered and was highly concerned about. He frowned and replied, "As of now, all intercity communication is in a state of paralysis. The last messages we’ve received from each major city..."
"The most recent one needs to be traced back about twenty hours, and nearly every city’s last message was of beast tides attacking the city and mysterious invasions."
Upon hearing this, Su Qi couldn’t help but tighten inwardly.
But at the moment, he had no more capacity to provide support.
Despite the current halt in anomalies, the Ninth District seems to coexist peacefully with the unpredictable world, but Su Qi knows well, the situation is extremely fragile.
The collapsing anomalous world will soon receive endless mysterious power which will stabilize it, regaining its world-sweeping momentum.
Currently, what they need to do is to strive to maintain the current order.
Even, if finding an opportunity arises, he hopes to make a decisive strike at the eerie origin — the Thirteenth District.
Only by destroying the key item for the world’s grand fusion, or achieving a final victory on another battlefield, will this calamity be completely ended.
