"This is the energy hub? It’s so big—" Lin Yaoyao looked at the Dusk rcenaries moving around her. Those Dusk rcenaries belonged to different organizations, and so were like her and hadn’t joined any organizations.
But when exploring here, everyone seed very ’peaceful.’ Why? Naturally, it was because Brother Chang Qing had not left yet. To cause a conflict here would be a slap in the face, wouldn’t it?
The Dusk rcenaries who hadn’t joined any organizations clearly understood that opportunities were rare. Once the Proxy Agent left this world, the remnants of the God Simulation Engine would inevitably be monopolized by the local forces and those Dusk rcenary groups, leaving no chance for the unaffiliated Dusk rcenaries to explore here.
Therefore, if they wanted to get their hands on any good stuff, they had to take advantage now. However, not everyone had a special built-in space like Zheng Yichen.
No matter how much they struggled with the massive remnants of the God Simulation Engine, the amount they could take away was extrely limited. What made things even more difficult was that the remnants of the God Simulation Engine were too sturdy... Zheng Yichen had cut them into pieces, but even the smallest of those pieces were as large as a house, so no one could take them away.
So for the Dusk rcenaries who had not joined an organization, what they could find were so residual fragnts and parts that could be easily cut off and taken away.
Those residual fragnts could be randomly found the size of a soccer ball.
"It is very large." Qi Xiangyun picked up a ’stone’ that looked like severely weathered shale. It appeared fragile, but its strength was already comparable to steel.
Her knowledge of chanical Techniques imdiately allowed her to determine the value of this material.
It could beco extrely high-quality core material for chanical techniques. She swung her weapon to further cut off a piece from the stone in front of her and saw so tiny dark red crystals, only the size of sesa seeds, similar to broken glass.
Moreover, the content was very low. After extracting them all, Qi Xiangyun felt a bit emotional—these sesa seed-sized residual crystals could satisfy the energy consumption of Qi Family Town for over thirty years...
The energy consumption of Qi Family Town was not considered low at the mont, primarily due to construction-related activities, but it certainly could not compare to the consumption of modern cities; therefore, such a small thing could easily last for over thirty years in Qi Family Town.
Of course, as Qi Family Town continued to develop and its energy consumption increased, this period of usage would shorten.
But the crystals were just residues left behind by the God Simulation Engine.
"The big ones could erase the whole Qi Family Town with a slap of their hand."
"..." Qi Xiangyun glanced at Lin Yaoyao, "If you don’t know how to speak, don’t talk. Don’t waste ti. Hurry up and find sothing you can take away. There’s only this one chance."
Lin Yaoyao slightly pursed her lips, watching the other busy Dusk rcenaries. The God Simulation Engine was too big, so while searching, the possibility of conflict between them... was very low.
After all, with their current numbers, even at the location of the energy hub, it wouldn’t seem crowded, and each person could have a large exploration area to themselves.
"Brother Chang Qing is really generous," Lin Yaoyao muttered.
Both Qi Xiangyun and Liu Hongzhao heard her comnt. After thinking it over, Qi Xiangyun said, "Those people are Dusk rcenaries. They’re doing the sa thing as Brother Chang Qing. If their strength is enhanced, Brother Chang Qing will have an easier ti in the future, I suppose."
"Really?" Lin Yaoyao slightly pouted. Her sword thrust into the petrified ground, and cracks spread out around her. The energy hub, which was largely petrified and very sturdy, seed quite fragile against the power of a Supre Demon Weapon.
With the presence of those tiny crystals, these stones didn’t seem to hold much value. After finding a few pieces, the three won focused on collecting better ones.
They knew that Zheng Yichen had definitely taken the best parts but that the leftovers still had extrely high value. As for studying the God Simulation Engine through chanical Techniques? Forget about it, Zheng Yichen had chopped it into pieces, and while it was possible to research the internal structure, there was no way to move the piled-up remnants.
"Eh? There’s still so fluid material here? Should we collect so?"
"Take all of it." Liu Hongzhao glanced at the dark red liquid unearthed by Lin Yaoyao, which resembled blood. She cut a piece off another stone with her sword and used a Wind Blade to shape it into a kettle-like container, then tried to roll it away with the wind.
But when the wind touched the less than a bowlful of liquid, it imdiately disintegrated, shattered by an even stronger energy.
"... Be careful, don’t directly touch that kind of stuff," Liu Hongzhao cautiously said.
After taking away the liquid, they continued to search nearby but didn’t find anything similar. They did, however, see an unfortunate soul. It was unclear what he had done, but an explosion occurred where he was, turning that Dusk rcenary into particles on the spot.
The energy particles scattered into the air, leaving no trace behind.
"... Is it that dangerous?" Lin Yaoyao felt her heart twitch.
"That’s not right, I feel like those crystals are very stable," Qi Xiangyun said, equally puzzled, and then thought of a possibility, "Could it be that he tried to absorb the energy within them?"
Liu Hongzhao also felt so astonishnt, "Are there really such foolish people?"
Qi Xinagyun wasn’t quite sure, "Maybe their cultivation thod can absorb the power of this type of crystal."
The quantity of dark red crystals was very limited; they had collected for a while, yet had gathered less than half a small bag, not even enough to fill a packet of sunflower seeds weighing several hundred grams.
Fortunately, they had plenty of ti on their hands, as long as Zheng Yichen did not leave this place, the exploration here would maintain its peacefulness...
On Zheng Yichen’s side, he held the small white dragon’s two little paws in his hands, looking into the tearful eyes of the young white dragon, he couldn’t help but facepalm—how to put it, the more he looked, the more he missed the young white dragon that had just hatched, now it truly seed like a big darling.
"Want sothing to eat?" Zheng Yichen picked up so grilled at from beside him; when he cleared a space in the air, food was the first thing to get moved. Wasting such things was a sha, so he might as well take it all out to eat.
"Eat—" The young white dragon opened its big mouth, posing for Zheng Yichen to feed it, causing Zheng Yichen to shake his head and stuff a large piece of at into the small white dragon’s mouth.
The young white dragon didn’t mind the size of the at, and crunched it down, while Zheng Yichen picked up another piece of grilled at and started eating on his own. anwhile, the young dragon Tanshia Firlo was stealthily observing Zheng Yichen.
At that ti, Zheng Yichen’s appearance in the enclosed space was brief, but the intense aura of Oblivion that spread secretly had stirred up her inherited mories.
To dragons, inherited mories were an asset they could draw upon when encountering trouble, sothing like a ’family, speak up if you understand’ kind of recourse.
But the agitation in the inherited mories was more like, ’family, does anyone understand!?’—the inherited mories at that ti were completely bewildered.
Thus, she was frightened—once again the young Tanshia realized her human caretaker might not be anything normal.
And so she was truly frightened.
Fortunately, after the battle ended and Zheng Yichen returned to normal, the affectionate feeling when interacting with him did not change, so the young white dragon clung to Zheng Yichen, whining as it released the pressure accumulated from being scared earlier.
Zheng Yichen also comforted the child in a manner completely different from his deanor during battle, as if the aura of Oblivion that had erged was just an illusion.
The young dragon shuffled its body, nuzzling up against Zheng Yichen with its jade-like body, its tiny tail hooking up a nearby bucket to help itself drink two gulps with its little paws.
Then its ruby-like eyes surveyed the remains of the God Simulation Engine, such a large thing— even if it were a large dragon confronting it, wouldn’t it be insufficient to slap it with a single paw? At least that’s the impression given by their comparative sizes.
Yet, Zheng Yichen had sliced such an imnse object into pieces.
"I want to go over there and play."
"Let Lilith follow you, and rember to be careful," Zheng Yichen patted the young white dragon’s head and signaled to Lilith parked nearby to watch over the child.
"Happy to oblige, BOSS." She had no interest in other children, but Tanshia Firlo was hatched by Zheng Yichen’s own hands, and the hatching video was properly recorded. She was more than willing to take care of such a ’child’.
The well-fed and watered young white dragon fluttered its tiny wings, aiming to run toward the remains of the God Simulation Engine. The young dragon was very small, but its wings were still powerful, and as it ran it jumped and glided along. So of the Dusk rcenaries who saw this young white dragon imdiately chose to give way.
A dragon, and one that seed very special and intelligent at that, was very precious; but this dragon was brought by that Proxy Agent, and no one wanted to provoke the young white dragon.
Seeing the remains of the God Simulation Engine also discouraged any excess thoughts.
"Woo la la la la—"
"What’s that noise?" Lin Yaoyao, who was diligently mining, heard the distant sound and stopped what she was doing to look towards the source—it was a young white dragon rapidly fluttering its wings, flying here and there.
Not far from the young white dragon, one could also hear the sound of an unmanned motorcycle.
"Should we greet them?"
"...Let’s not, there’ll be plenty of chances to et later," Qi Xiangyun glanced at the Dusk rcenaries scattered around and shook her head. Many of the Dusk rcenaries here were organized.
She didn’t want to appear too high-profile at this mont, to be specially noted by others. While such notes might not cause trouble often, sotis they could lead to bigger issues.
Being regarded as having connections was one thing; the key was that after being so labeled, it was easy to be exploited, so externally, they always maintained a sense of vigilance.
Moreover, they had witnessed the invasion of the Great World and thought it best to keep their relationship with Brother Chang Qing a secret. It was better to keep it secret as long as possible.
