Chapter 86: Personal Martial Power Skyrockets

Qin Hao closed the exchange list of the fantasy side.

Eternal life, becoming an immortal ancestor, is indeed tempting. But if one can't afford it or use it, it's pure illusion,

Seeing too much only affects the Dao heart, oh no, it affects mood.

He redirected his attention back to the technology side's list and began to carefully select.

After much deliberation and repeated comparison, he finally made a decision.

"System, help me list the following four things."

【Please speak.】

"First, the supernatural crystal from 【Superpower Out of Control】."

"Second, the sixth-generation battle armor from 【Iron Man】."

"Third, the super soldier serum from 【Eagle Sauce Captain】."

"Finally, the optimized T-virus from 【Biohazard Crisis】."

These four things are the combination he carefully selected.

The serum and the T-virus are used to strengthen the flesh, this basic carrier.

The battle armor is high-tech equipment capable of handling most modern warfare scenarios.

And the supernatural crystal is the ultimate trump card, a mysterious power that transcends technology, driven purely by will.

【The list has been generated, calculating total price……】

【Supernatural crystal, involving spatial telekinesis development, belongs to high-end technology, quote: fifteen billion Energy Points.】

【Iron Man sixth-generation battle armor, quote: one hundred billion Energy Points.】

【Perfect version super soldier serum, quote: fifteen billion Energy Points.】

【Optimized T-virus, quote: twenty billion Energy Points.】

【Total: 285 billion Energy Points. Confirm copy?】

"Hiss……"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Qin Hao still twitched at the corners of his eyes from this number.

285 billion, almost draining his entire fortune.

The cost of this personal gear is nearly catching up to the military upgrade plan previously devised for the whole country.

Truly extravagant.

"Confirm copy!"

He had no hesitation and directly issued the command. Wealth is external; one's own strength is eternal.

As his will moved, his personal quota of 30 billion Energy Points instantly evaporated, leaving only 1.5 billion.

The next second, in the spacious main hall of the courtyard, light flickered slightly.

Four items appeared out of thin air.

A syringe contained a pale blue liquid, shimmering, full of technological aesthetics—undoubtedly the super soldier serum.

Beside it was another syringe, its liquid showing a spiral green—exactly the optimized T-virus.

Lastly, a silver metal suitcase stood quietly on the ground—this was the sixth-generation battle armor.

And in the center was a half-person-tall irregular crystal.

It was entirely light blue; its surface seemed to have countless stars flowing within, emitting an indescribable eerie allure.

Qin Hao's gaze swept over the four items, finally landing on the two vials.

"In everything, one must lay a solid foundation."

He muttered to himself, stepped forward, without hesitation picked up the pale blue super soldier serum, rolled up his sleeve, aimed at his arm, and pushed it all the way in.

The cold liquid entered his bloodstream; at first there was nothing unusual. But a few seconds later, an indescribable heat surge erupted from his heart, instantly sweeping through his whole body!

Qin Hao let out a muffled groan; he felt that every cell of his body, under the scouring of this heat flow, emitted a thirsty cheer.

Muscles twitched and tightened imperceptibly, bones became harder.

He could clearly "hear" the sound of his blood rushing, and "see" the fine dust floating in the air.

This sensation lasted less than a minute before gradually subsiding.

Qin Hao slowly opened his eyes and clenched his fist.

An unprecedented sense of strength filled his limbs; he felt he could kill a cow with one punch.

Without pause, he immediately picked up the green T-virus vial.

If the serum just now was enhancement, then the T-virus brings elevation.

The green liquid entered his body, lacking the previous explosive heat flow, instead a deep, warm nourishment reaching the marrow.

He could feel his cells undergoing frantic optimization and reorganization, broken gene chains repaired, aged cells eliminated,

a mighty surge of life force continuously gushed from the deepest part of his body.

He even had the illusion that as long as he had a single cell left, he could come back to life.

When everything settled, Qin Hao stood in place and slowly exhaled a turbid breath.

He walked to the tea table, extended his index finger, and lightly pressed on the hard tabletop.

"Crack."

With a crisp sound, the thick tabletop made of high-density redwood was easily poked by him into a finger hole.

Qin Hao looked at his finger, then at the hole, and couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his mouth.

This was still pure physical strength, and he hadn't even exerted much force.

He didn't go on to test his limits; his gaze turned to the final, most crucial target—the supernatural crystal.

He walked up to the crystal and could feel that it contained a peculiar energy field, constantly interacting with the surrounding space.

According to the original setting, Qin Hao no longer hesitated, extending his right hand and gently pressing it against the cold surface of the crystal.

Hum—!

The instant his palm touched the crystal, his brain felt as if struck hard by an invisible heavy hammer.

A sharp pain surged from deep within his mind, making him want to clutch his head and scream.

But just then, his brain and body, recently strengthened by the T virus and super serum, displayed their great resilience.

A cool thought rose from his sea of consciousness, quickly stabilizing his mind on the verge of collapse.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Hao suddenly opened his eyes.

The world was still the same world; nothing had changed.

Only, the color of that ability crystal had turned transparent, indistinguishable from ordinary crystal.

"No way, I've absorbed it completely; let me see the effect."

Thinking this, his mind stirred.

A tea cup on the nearby tea table trembled slightly.

There's a way!

Qin Hao's eyes flashed with brilliance; he focused all his spirit and issued a command to that tea cup.

"Rise!"

The purple-sand tea cup trembled more violently, and finally, in a slight shudder, it slowly levitated into midair.

Success!

Qin Hao's heart pounded, an unprecedented joy surging through him.

He moved his mind again; the tea cup nimbly spun in the air, then left, then right, playing happily for a moment.

This is telekinesis! This is superpower!

Withdrawing his telekinesis, the tea cup fell with a "pop" and shattered on the ground.

Qin Hao, however, didn't care.

He then turned his gaze to the table he had poked a hole in.

"Lift up!"

The heavy redwood table wobbled as it rose half a meter into the air!

But it fell after just a few seconds.

"I've just awakened telekinesis, I'm not proficient, far from the original protagonist's level; it seems I'll need to develop it properly later."

Next up is the sixth-generation steel battle armor.
