Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start-Chapter 337 - 189: The Divine Showcase’s Answer
Introduction: The greedy trade began, and this time it seems you’ll pay a painful price.]
At the same time, Mr. Baiyi clearly saw the text on the tentacle. As the tentacle retracted, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He carefully perceived it, but didn’t feel any change. Yet... he had a feeling that the trade target of this showcase seems to be him, rather than the players.
Luckily, the Divine Showcase didn’t specify what quality of Soul Crystal Core it required.
Under the gaze of the Jianwei Brigade, Mr. Baiyi took out a Small Soul Crystal Core from the Demon Realm and handed it to the Guard Brigade.
The others didn’t matter, but the guard brigade had been a great help to him; if the brigade truly became alienated, that would be the real loss.
The guard brigade took the Small Soul Crystal Core, examined the question mark-filled object, let out a long sigh of relief, and after handing the item over to the Divine Showcase, two tasks on his panel were completed simultaneously.
Mr. Baiyi’s spiritual power surged as he picked up a piece of paper from the ground, which had two lines of scribbled handwriting on it.
[Crisis: Marvel.
Kill: Capital City, Summon, Abyss.]
Mr. Baiyi paused, his eyes pensive, as he looked towards Demacia. Could the Divine Showcase see the future too? Or in its estimation, could players resolve this crisis?
Now, four methods to kill the Giant Dragon were provided, the first involving the Sword Saint of the Capital City, but the latter two he couldn’t quite understand.
Was the Abyss referring to a contract? Or... Pu Sheng?
Whose summon was it? Or who was being summoned?
Feeling a bit troubled, he thought it safer to let the players investigate first, though he wasn’t sure if this guy could broadcast live.
The players curiously looked at the piece of paper in Mr. Baiyi’s hand, but he didn’t intend to let them see it.
He sent the paper into the Demon Realm and asked with a smile: "Thank you for your help. Is there something you came to me for this time?"
He handed a small bag of Gold Coins to the Guard Brigade: "Consider this as a token of appreciation for your help this time."
In the envious eyes of the other two, the Guard Brigade accepted it politely, saying: "It’s my duty."
He turned his head towards Demacia and signaled slightly.
Demacia immediately stepped forward and said, "Lord City Lord, last night while I was out earning Battle Merits, I discovered the abandoned base of the Black Night Rose and found some secrets there.
Helping the Federation could help our Marvel grow, so my intuition told me that I should bring an item to you, and seeing this item should explain everything."
Demacia said with a hint of unease as he looked towards the Guard Brigade, not knowing how to explain the task matter to the NPC, especially since this Hell-Level task had three hints.
The first hint only prompted him to bring a shield to Mr. Baiyi, nothing else, and he racked his brain to come up with this somewhat vague statement.
The Guard Brigade reached out, the power of the Space-Time Assassin erupted, and a pitch-black shield about one meter in size appeared, with a matte texture that seemed to convey an air of nobility.
Mr. Baiyi raised an eyebrow; this so-called shield turned out to be a Black Dragon scale!
Yet judging by the material and size, it hadn’t reached Legendary level.....
Pondering, Mr. Baiyi nodded: "This is a Black Dragon scale. Recently, there have indeed been rumors that the Black Night Rose intends to find a Legendary Black Dragon to attack Dongwu City, but this Giant Dragon is very dangerous, you might die soon."
With determination, Xiahou Fuxing firmly patted his chest: "Marvel never fears death!"
"Alright, in that case, I’ll send you over." Contemplating something, Mr. Baiyi looked at the Guard Brigade and asked: "Are you going too?"
"Yes, we are a team." The Guard Brigade nodded in response.
Mr. Baiyi pondered a bit and still said: "I’d like to ask you to stay and help me with something first, and I’ll send you over once it’s done. How does that sound?"
Without hesitation, the Guard Brigade agreed firmly: "Of course, your orders are always the priority."
[Mr. Baiyi Favorability +1.]
Mr. Baiyi, quite satisfied, asked: "If I’m not mistaken, the Star Federation also has a Marvel, right?"
The Guard Brigade nodded: "Yes, not only the Star Federation, but also the Sun Federation."
Mr. Baiyi continued straightforwardly: "I have some knowledge to pass on to the Alchemy Sage over there; do you have a way to do that?"
The Guard Brigade paused, a task appearing on the panel. The task was only at Difficulty Level, as the panel’s understanding of player message transmissions was quite clear.
However, there was some hesitation in the Guard Brigade’s eyes since the Star Federation’s server was handled by people in Europe, and he seemed to have few friends there.
With six million players, even if there were friends in the game, the probability of meeting the Alchemy Sage was low.
Thinking hard, his eyes suddenly lit up: "No problem, but I’ll need some time."
Mr. Baiyi smiled: "I knew I wasn’t wrong about you. I’ll need about five hours to send them over; will that be enough?"
The Guard Brigade calculated a bit and nodded: "That’s enough. Mr. Baiyi, I’ll go prepare now."
He decisively logged off, needing to contact some friends from the Fur Bear....
Mr. Baiyi exhaled deeply, looking at Demacia and the two others: "Let me send you over first, then."
He glanced at the Extremely Evil People, pondered briefly, and decided to lock them up first, planning to release them if there were future inquiries.
Upon receiving the command, an L-shaped cyborg grabbed the Extremely Evil People, who remained silent throughout, and turned to leave.
Mr. Baiyi waited quietly in the snow with the two enthusiastic individuals. After a few seconds, when the Giant Dragon’s voice sounded, Mr. Baiyi took them soaring into the sky, swiftly heading towards the east of the city.
Twenty thousand kilometers was vast; even at the speed of Mach 7, it would take the Giant Dragon nearly two hours to fly there.
During this time, Mr. Baiyi manipulated his Spiritual Power within the Demon Realm to translate the incomprehensible Giant Statue knowledge.
The other players might be unreliable at times, but not the Guard Brigade; he has not treated the game as a game since entering it.
But he was troubled for a while to prevent the leakage of Giant Statue knowledge.
Ultimately, Mr. Baiyi decided to shuffle some passages and use different scripts to write them, substituting much of the text with Alchemy Inscriptions.
It was troublesome, but this player group lacked any sense of confidentiality. This top-notch knowledge, if known by people from the Three Great Federations, was manageable.
But if wielded by Evil Gods or Demigods, it would be a real problem.
The ancient Great Alchemist Sages, despite facing death, never shared the method of making Giant Statues with those Gods.
This alone showed that Gods might be capable of creating Giant Statues.
Therefore, it was better to be cautious.
As for whether the Alchemy Sage could decipher it, that was overthinking.
Never underestimate the knowledge reserve of an Alchemy Sage.
Mr. Baiyi mastered numerous scripts, including those of this world’s Human Race, Elf, Devil, and God, but the Alchemy Sage knew even more.
The arrangement of the Alchemy Array Text was quite troublesome. The two players were chatting away when Mr. Baiyi stopped the Bone Dragon’s flight abruptly upon approaching an altitude of less than three thousand kilometers from a peak piercing through the clouds.
He began setting up a Teleportation Array; three thousand kilometers should be manageable for Level 24 players.
After giving them each two bottles of Healing Potions, Mr. Baiyi informed them of the Giant Dragon’s location before decisively activating the Teleportation Array.
Watching the players disappear, Mr. Baiyi checked the forum’s live stream; the distance of twenty thousand kilometers meant there was no risk of the target being snatched.
As both Demacia and Xiahou Fuxing started streaming, it facilitated Mr. Baiyi’s observation of the Giant Dragon, allowing preparation in advance.
If unsuccessful, the issue with the Extremely Evil People would involve analyzing the paper that fell from the Divine Showcase earlier.
Mr. Baiyi mounted the Giant Dragon and, braving the wind and snow, swiftly headed towards Dongwu City.
Mutated Zones passed beneath, a solemn expression in his eyes, occasionally encountering an Ancient Divine Realm, which gave him a sense of threat.
The world was growing more dangerous; he began to sense High-Tier Legendary auras within the Mutated Zones.
This indicated an increasing threat to the Federation from outside.
As the time transitioned from dawn to noon, he returned to Dongwu City.
Meanwhile, the Guard Brigade was online again, and Mr. Baiyi approached, taking out the Giant Statue manufacturing method written over the past five hours, beginning the transmission of knowledge.
However, Mr. Baiyi added some temporary data, including knowledge of intercontinental missiles and the Alchemy Magic Net, along with a special ripple. If the Alchemy Sage over there could connect the networks of the two places,
then the technology over there could certainly lead Dawn’s technology to soar to new heights.
The Alchemists of Dawn would truly multiply.
