Chapter 157

Lu Cang tossed the money bag in his hand.

"Seven hundred thousand gold coins."

"That's almost as much as my bounty."

"My head is only worth thirty units of Secret Steel Stone?"

"Truly cheap."

Lu Cang weighed the money bag in his hand.

Thinking of his own bounty, he couldn't help but mock himself.

Afterwards, he began strolling through the trading market.

Buying some supplies directly from the Lord is more convenient.

Especially some Saint-tier materials.

If they could be bought directly and analyzed into genes.

It would definitely lead to a substantial increase in combat power.

It would also provide more sufficient odds for the future assault on Baier City.

Wan Wan Baoli looked at the latest news.

He took a deep drag on the cigar in his hand.

"Lu Cang, it's Lu Cang again."

"A single person repelled a Lord's squadron of a hundred."

"Truly ruthless."

"Why do I have a bad feeling?"

Wan Wan Baoli chewed on the cigar while deep in thought.

Afterwards, he opened a chat window.

"How long until that Saint-tier Great Wang Ba and the Saint-tier female monster are eliminated?"

"Replying to the Minister."

"That female monster is nearly killed by us."

"Wang Ba cannot protect her; it is estimated that these two disasters will be successfully surrounded and killed within three days."

"However, Lord Ju Yue has also lost a Saint-tier Sky Giant."

"Lord Ju Yue is extremely displeased now, clamoring for a larger share of the spoils."

"Three days, huh."

"Ask for me if there are any Saint-tier Lords three days from now who wish to campaign against that Lu Cang."

"Ah? Campaign against Lu Cang?"

"That Tier 5 Cursed One?"

"My Lord, is it a bit... excessive to have a Saint-tier campaign against a Tier 5 Lord?"

In fact, "excessive" is not enough to convey such exaggeration.

This is simply using a nuclear bomb to swat a mosquito.

A Saint-tier Lord, let alone deploying troops to campaign, even just by himself could casually crush a Tier 8 Lord at full strength.

A Tier 5.

It is too much trouble.

"Stop talking nonsense. If I tell you to ask, then ask."

Click.

The cigar fell to the ground.

Coming to his senses, he realized he had done so unknowingly.

He had actually bitten the cigar in his mouth completely in half.

He reached this position relying somewhat on some wild instincts.

In his intuition.

He believed this Lu Cang was extremely dangerous.

Extremely, extremely, far beyond ordinary danger.

"Lu Cang."

…………

While Lu Cang was strolling through 【Baier City】.

The Nest was not idle either.

The Nest's current advancement still allows for the consumption of supplies.

Of the three hearts, only one enters a dormant state.

Therefore, it can still analyze genes.

【Saint Star Ring Crystal Analysis Complete】

【You have unlocked gene: Star Ring Nerve】

【Star Ring Nerve — Forms a protective star ring within the nerves of your troops; the star ring can absorb large amounts of nerve/mental/psychic/soul-type attacks, protecting the species from their harm.】

【Applicable Range: All troop types possessing nerves.】

The analysis is finally complete.

The analysis of this Holy Star Ring Crystal took far longer than Lu Cang had expected.

Unlike the Secret Steel Stone.

The Holy Star Ring Crystal belongs to the category of mental/soul-type substances.

Its special nature is far more complex than that of the Secret Steel Stone, which merely possesses greater hardness and various attack resistances.

Deconstructing its principles is also more complex.

Once the deconstruction is complete.

A gene can then be formed.

【Gene Point Consumption: One Hundred Thousand】

"Unlock Star Ring Nerves."

In that instant, Lu Cang felt that within his nerves.

A faint glimmer of starlight emerged.

This starlight moved around his nerve fibers.

Furthermore, some of the star points surrounded his brain.

"The Gazer, Mental Shock."

Buzz—

On a building somewhere in Baier City, an eye quietly opened.

It instantly gazed at Lu Cang.

However, Lu Cang felt no abnormality in his body.

Looking inward at his own body, he saw only that some of the starlight had dimmed slightly.

The mental shock had been absorbed by these star points.

· ··Begging for flowers···· ···

Now, it seems he is truly invincible.

Star Ring Nerves—can resist mental attacks of the Saint rank.

Secret Steel Tissue—can resist physical attacks of the Saint rank, as well as the vast majority of energy/elemental attacks with tangible effects.

Both physical and mental defenses have reached their peak.

When the Gazer attacks oneself, it is not considered entering a combat state.

Thus, the mimicry is still maintained.
