Silver Forest.
Under the sunlight, a gentle breeze passed through, causing the silver needle-shaped leaves to jingle lodiously, producing a sound akin to silver bells colliding in harmony.
On the back of the greedy snake, Qin Shou extended his hand, and the wind carried a few silver leaves into his palm.
"Ding ding..."
Qin Shou toyed with the silver needle-shaped leaves in his hand and discovered that not only did the leaves appear sturdy, but they were genuinely tough.
Earth Base City was situated at the center of the Silver Forest, not just because the monsters in the forest weren’t too powerful, but also because the hardness of these silver trees was remarkably high. Their leaves and trunks could be used to manufacture second-level chs, and silver trees had short growth cycles with low extraction difficulty.
Moreover, the heartwood of silver trees possessed effects similar to mory tal and could be incorporated into third-level chs. Although the effects weren’t as strong as Cosmic Creature tal, it was abundant, cost-effective, and served its purpose well.
Qin Shou soared across the skies over the Silver Forest, occasionally spotting chanical masters chopping down silver trees and extracting their heartwood tal to craft chs.
"Zzzt zzzt zzzt..."
The Space Gate opened wide, and swarms of Gold-eating Insects poured forth, gnawing at silver trees to satisfy their hunger while gathering heartwood in bulk.
The Galatron Army required copious amounts of tal reinforcent, and this Silver Forest perfectly fulfilled their requirents.
However, the task assigned by the Morlo Kingdom stipulated that Qin Shou had to arrive within half a month. If he failed to make it on ti, the mission would refresh, and candidates would be reselected.
Since the use of the Transmission Array was prohibited, Qin Shou’s tiline was indeed quite tight.
Luckily, Qin Shou wasn’t alone.
A dozen Monkey Avatars leaped out from the Space Gate, scattering in all directions. Their golden staffs transford into golden axes, wildly chopping down silver trees.
To boost efficiency, you needed more people.
"Hey, boy up ahead, stop right there."
Suddenly, the sound of energy roaring echoed across the sky as seven second-level chs accelerated sharply, blocking Qin Shou’s path.
"Hey, kid, which zone are you from? This is our turf. Go chop sowhere else!"
Several energy weapons from the chs pointed directly at Qin Shou, as though they would act the mont he disagreed.
Qin Shou smirked, considering that this was still relatively close to Earth Base City. These chanical masters were unlikely to resort to lethal asures, at most, just threats.
While killing wasn’t an option, fighting wasn’t entirely ruled out.
"Haha, you guys arrived just in ti. How about we make a deal?" Qin Shou said cheerfully.
"What deal?"
"Ahem, well, I hereby declare—you’re getting robbed!"
"What...?"
...
Monts later, the seven n were left nearly naked, huddled together. Covering their swollen, bruised faces, they glared at Qin Shou with tears in their eyes as he counted his spoils, though they dared not speak out.
Qin Shou pocketed the loot and sighed, "What a pitiful haul. But at least there’s enough silver tree heartwood to fortify the Galatron Army."
He turned to glance at the furious faces of the group, chuckling, "Do you guys know who I am?"
The n shook their heads frantically. Who knew what misfortune had brought this troublemaker?
Qin Shou nodded, "Good, better that way."
"Beep beep..."
At that mont, the communicator rang, and a virtual image appeared, depicting a massive mantis fully clad in tallic armor.
"Boss, help ! Kazek can’t beat this thing!" Rein Jia’er cried for help.
"Hold on, I’ll be right there."
Qin Shou jumped onto the greedy snake, then thought for a mont and tossed a few sets of clothes toward the group.
"Put these on, don’t catch a cold."
The group exchanged glances, utterly baffled.
Such a considerate robber.
Oh, great, thanks a lot!
...
At the far end of the Silver Forest.
A colossal mantis shimring with silver tallic brilliance flapped its wings fiercely, engaging in a high-altitude battle with Kazek. They exchanged blows in rapid succession, sending out deafening clangs of tal on tal throughout the air.
"Clang clang clang..."
The mantis’s razor-sharp twin blades left deep gashes across Kazek’s tallic outer shell. Kazek’s overall attributes fell short of its opponent. Despite being similarly sized mantis monsters, Kazek was completely unable to counterattack and could only endure the onslaught.
Not far off, the newly arrived Qin Shou observed the scene, his brows furrowing sharply.
In battles between monsters of the sa level, his Synthetic Monsters had never been disadvantaged before.
Even if Kazek’s primary function was reconnaissance rather than combat, it was still not sothing that should be easily suppressed by monsters of the sa grade.
But now...
As expected, the monsters on Monster Planet were much stronger than the mutated monsters of Earth.
Cross-level combat wasn’t going to be as straightforward as it was on Earth.
Damn it, am I getting nerfed by the author again?
Qin Shou cursed under his breath and waved to summon a swarm of Gold-eating Insects.
"Zzzt zzzt zzzt..."
Under the sunlight, the overwhelming mass of Gold-eating Insects glistened with golden hues, rushing forth like an unstoppable tide to envelop the silver tallic mantis.
"Crunch crunch..."
The piercing sound of tal being ground echoed. Although the tallic mantis scread in agony, Gold-eating Insects were continuously flung off its body.
"Beep... Analysis of the tallic mantis’s surface indicates it can emit over-frequency vibration waves. Gold-eating Insect effectiveness reduced to less than 10%..."
On the communicator’s screen, Galatron’s virtual form materialized, gathering data on the silver tallic mantis’s abilities.
Qin Shou’s face twitched, "A stealth assassin with counter-armor?"
But this also highlighted that the Gold-eating Insects were no longer keeping pace with his rising strength.
All this ti, Qin Shou had only focused on enhancing the Gold-Eating Insect Queen, leveraging its terrifying reproduction ability to boost the swarm’s numbers.
Ordinary Gold-eating Insects, on the other hand, could only grow stronger by consuming tals and monsters—a much slower process compared to Synthetic Monsters.
Qin Shou shook his head, "Forget it, I’ll hand them over to Brother Monkey."
With a thought, ten Monkey Avatars blasted forth from the Space Gate.
"Hey! Don’t hurt our little bugs!"
