Chapter 786: Two Options

Su Sheng wasn't polite either; he went forward and picked it up.

After seeing clearly what was in his hand, Su Sheng felt a bit disappointed, but then he quickly became excited.

Excellent prototype puppet core (red).

Item.

Description: A fine puppet core made by a master's hand.

This thing, I'll give it to the Iron Hammer Dwarf King later—I don't know…

Su Sheng chuckled; the war puppet currently patrolling Yanhuang Town is almost equivalent to a Pseudo Commander-level Boss.

Moreover, the prototype puppet core of that thing is just an ordinary orange puppet core.

But this one right now is red.

Limited by current materials, we probably can't make a Shiva Divine Mechanism Person or a Xuanwu Mechanism Beast or anything like that.

But having the Iron Hammer Dwarf King produce a proper commander‑level boss‑like puppet shouldn't be a big problem, right?

Immediately, Su Sheng sent the item to the camp channel.

"Shiva Divine Mechanism Person, I just reported this thing; I happen to need it—taking it should be fine, right?"

Su Sheng spoke in the channel.

"Haha, of course there's no problem."

"Master Mo Wen, feel free!"

"Without you, we couldn't take down this Shiva Divine Mechanism Person; just get it!"

Others naturally had no objections and all spoke up.

Su Sheng didn't want others to think he was hoarding the loot, so he posted it.

After all, everyone around saw that red halo.

And if it weren't for the Universe's catapult, relying on just my words, the game time would have ended before we could wear down that Shiva Divine Mechanism Person.

So we still need to explain it.

"Later you can just give me two Destroyers." Shen Wang also spoke in the camp channel.

The thing is a good thing.

But they, the Universe, have no Dwarf Race settlements.

This thing truly can only realize its maximum value if given to Huaxia.

"No problem!"

Su Sheng naturally agreed readily.

Anyway, compared to that, Destroyers just need some materials; next, it just takes some time… the time of Dwarf craftsmen.

And this puppet core can be used to make autonomous combat puppets.

Furthermore, as long as the puppet core isn't damaged, even if the puppet breaks down, spending a little more material lets you keep churning them out.

More importantly, with material upgrades and later craft improvements, this thing remains scalable.

By rights, this red core in hand.

Is the Shiva Divine's puppet core, so…

As long as craftsmanship and materials keep up, directly making a Shiva Divine Mechanism Person‑level mechanism puppet isn't a problem.

Afterward, Su Sheng simply stuffed the thing into his pocket.

"Brothers! It's the final stage—take the city!"

Afterward, Su Sheng turned his gaze to the main hall of Shiva City before him.

Shiva City's biggest difficulties have already been solved; only this last stubborn city hall remains, so naturally there's no difficulty.

…

Ding~

System Announcement:

Shiva City, the city hall has fallen.

The A San server lost its main city, Shiva City.

Penalty: All players residing in Shiva City lose one level.

Low morale effect, lasting seven days.

Low morale: due to losing their homeland, morale is low, attack and defense reduced by ten percent.

In the A San server's sky, a large golden text appears; Huaxia players on the A San server can also see this announcement.

All domestic server players looking at the ruins of Shiva City's city hall before them showed smiles.

Meanwhile, A San server players felt the sky collapse.

A San players who originally resided in Shiva City suffered heavy losses in the offensive‑defensive battle.

On average, almost everyone dropped one level, and some individuals dropped two.

Now deduct another level…

Plus an additional debuff lasting one week.

Really, the sky has fallen.

Instantly, wails filled the entire A San server.

Ding~

System Notification:

Congratulations to Huaxia server players for capturing the A San main city.

Reward obtained:

All participating players' level increases by 1.

For subsequent rewards, Commander, please make a decision.

Commander…

Zhang Zhi.

Don't ask why it's not Su Sheng.

Su Sheng is busy killing people; he has no time to command the battle.

"There are two options. The first is to consolidate the loot and retreat, gaining 1000 Gold Coin and 1000 reputation, but Shi Bo Cheng's reconstruction time is half a month."

"The second option is to completely destroy Shi Bo Cheng, plunder the city, and receive corresponding rewards based on exploration contribution; Shi Bo Cheng's reconstruction time would be one month."

Zhang Zhi speaks in the faction channel.

"Choose the second."

"The second one, I don't need that 1000 Gold Coin!"

"Isn't it 1000 bucks? Missing that 1000 bucks, choose the second!"

"We can't let them rebuild so easily!"

Everyone begins to speak up.

Although the second's reward wasn't specified, since they've said it like that, it must be worse than the first.

Anyway, the level‑up is already a profit, and the fallen comrades have also broken even; a thousand Gold Coin is just 1000 bucks.

Not interested!

But… this time, fifty thousand people are mobilized together!

Don't think it's small; 1000 Gold Coin per person isn't much, at a 1:1 ratio each gets only a few thousand, and there's also a withdrawal fee.

But in total…

50000*1000=50000000

That's a full 50 million!

That's no small amount.

However, everyone's voice is strongest for the second option.

But Zhang Zhi hasn't made a choice yet; clearly he's waiting for Su Sheng to speak.

Su Sheng raises an eyebrow, looking at everyone's clamor.

Su Sheng also prepares to choose according to everyone's voice, after all this battle wasn't won by him alone, but is the result of everyone's effort.

Naturally, he respects everyone's opinion.

But at that moment, a message arrives.

"Mo Wen Chairman, choose the first."

It is Zhu Meng Junjie.

Besides this Private Chat line, there is also a screenshot of an item.

Demon Energy Crystal Core (red)

Item.

Description: None

Effect: Unknown

Seeing this item, Su Sheng raises an eyebrow.

This thing looks somewhat familiar.

I think I also have one, but I still don't know what it's for.

Tie Chui Airen also pondered it for a while, found no use, and gave it back to himself.

It was originally obtained from a Dungeon; that Dungeon was quite difficult, and Su Sheng still remembers it vividly.

"What does this thing do?" Su Sheng asks.

"This thing emerged after the Demon Race's Demon Energy Well collapsed."

"And the Demon Race's Demon Energy Well needs this thing to serve as its core."

"Although we won't construct a dedicated Demon Energy Well, if we dig a hole and drop it in, in about a week it will automatically generate a Demon Energy Well, albeit a shoddy one."

"But it still has the effect of a Demon Energy Well."

"Moreover, A San broke the Demon Sealing Barrier, causing the servers on both sides to connect; it's not just our Domestic Server and Demon Realm that are linked."
