Chapter 3397

After Hao Mei finished her meal and took a nap on the sofa covered with a blanket, she started drawing blood, 400 milliliters at a time, in three sessions, totaling 1,200 milliliters.

The 2,000 milliliters that Baha said to draw again was to fool Hao Mei. Su Xiao wanted Hao Mei's blood to purify the energy particles that could fuse thunder and blood, and then try to replicate them.

Su Xiao had long discovered the power hidden in the professional and bloodline abilities of contractors. These are products optimized by the Paradise. They look not as powerful as the original version, but in fact, it is because the side effects have been eliminated.

The last sister-juice Sweet Orange made Su Xiao gain a lot. The first version of the Devourer was developed using Sweet Orange's cells + ancient god source blood, etc. Later, there was the Eye Ritual, which could manufacture "Dark Eye," and then the first-generation Devourer Black A appeared.

Crimson and Dark Sun are actually second and third generations cultivated with Black A's fragments.

The purpose of manufacturing the Devourer at the beginning was to manufacture a living tracking organism that could track the enemy after absorbing the enemy's blood and hair.

As a result, after it was manufactured, it was found that this thing was exceptionally fierce. The tracking ability was not strong, but it was strong enough to make people's jaws drop in terms of devouring living beings.

At that time, the Devourer was still different from what it is now, and was identified as a one-time weapon. After using it once, Su Xiao discovered the strongest characteristic of the Devourer: it can not only symbiosis with the host but also become stronger together with the host.

After that, it was the version of the first-generation Devourer Black A. No one would have thought that the initial inspiration for this thing was a tracking organism. Its symbiosis was just to invade the target's body after catching up with the target, so that the target could not get rid of the tracking.

After a preliminary analysis of Hao Mei's blood, Su Xiao found nothing. The ethanol content in the blood was not low. Looking at Hao Mei who took wine as water, it was normal for the ethanol content in the blood to be high.

Hao Mei sat on the sofa, with a blood collection needle tied to her arm, holding a big date in her other hand, and there was red sugar water she brewed herself on the table.

"You lost."

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing his words, Hao Mei, who was chewing the big date, opened her mouth vaguely.

"I originally planned to get rid of you..."

"Big brother, no need to say it. I can see that you don't want to talk nonsense with me. I will pay."

"..."

Su Xiao's train of thought was interrupted. He really didn't expect that the other party would be so straightforward in paying.

"We are both technique types, so you can imagine how poor I am. I still have 5,000 soul coins, so use this money to save my life."

Hao Mei looked at the blood collection bag while speaking, meaning, it's already 400cc, don't go too far.

"20,000 soul coins."

Su Xiao offered a price. Hearing this, Hao Mei said:

"2... 10,000? Do you think I'm worth 20,000? Miners are indeed rich, or contractors related to mining are rich. Although I don't have 20,000 soul coins, I know two people who have them. One is called Morey, and the other is called Moon Apostle. Morey has a mine in a certain world, sitting and waiting to collect soul coins every time. The Moon Apostle has a batch of summoned creatures that will mine, and they are also particularly rich. So compared to catching a poor ghost like me, it's better to catch them..."

Hao Mei strongly advocated that Su Xiao catch Morey and the Moon Apostle and knock them hard. Baha on the side smiled without saying a word. If Morey and the Moon Apostle could still squeeze out soul coins, they wouldn't have caught Hao Mei.

"You have 20,000 soul coins."

Su Xiao suddenly interrupted Hao Mei's words. Hao Mei opposite replied: "I don't have! Who said I have?!"

"Morey."

"Damn it!!"

Hao Mei was angry and confused. She and Morey had been at odds for a long time, which started from the kill of a dungeon boss.

Hao Mei, as a technique type, had the habit of fighting bosses one-on-one. After she killed through a dungeon once, she fought the dungeon boss one-on-one. More than 70% of the dungeon's revenue was concentrated on that dungeon boss.

A happy event happened. Morey suddenly appeared, kicked Hao Mei after a kidney-exploding attack, and finally snatched the kill right of the dungeon boss.

It can't be blamed on Morey. It was she who discovered this dungeon, but she met Hao Mei at the dungeon entrance. Caught off guard, she was beaten by Hao Mei until she doubted life.

After the two formed a grudge, in Morey's eyes, Hao Mei was a simple-minded wavy white hair, and in Hao Mei's eyes, Morey was a sand-sculpture little pink hair.

"Morey and I have a grudge. She is splashing dirty water. As Morey's father, don't you know this?"

Hao Mei said this, obviously she had figured out the whole situation.

"According to Morey, you used a huge amount of original capital to set up a chamber of commerce that resells ore. You don't have much business acumen yourself, but under the notarization of the Apocalypse Paradise, you became a net profit sharer of that chamber of commerce."

As soon as Su Xiao said this, Hao Mei wished she could strangle Morey. Does she have a net profit share of an ore chamber of commerce? The answer is yes. This is also why she is rich, and also why she is called Hao Mei. "This girl turned out to be a local tyrant." Over time, people who knew her called her Hao Mei.

"I have one last question, tell me. How many soul coins did that sand-sculpture pink hair Morey squeeze out after being caught by you?"

"20,000."

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking.

【Prompt: You received a transaction request.】

【You obtained 20,000 soul coins.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao was in a very good mood. Even if he is a Tier 8 hunter, a total revenue of 30,000 soul coins in a world progress is already very good.

This world invasion, not to mention anything else, just the soul coins obtained from Morey, the Moon Apostle, and Hao Mei totaled more than 70,000. This caught up with the two world progresses he experienced, plus there was a surplus of 10,000 soul coins.

It looks like mining is more profitable, but it is not. Mining is not a simple matter. You have to invest energy and resources in this area to mine high-level mineral vein resources. Otherwise, even if you find it, if you handle it improperly during mining, the ore may not only be worthless, but this mining may also lose money.

Investing too much energy in mining naturally leaves no time to improve combat capability, resulting in the predicament of mining ore but not being able to keep it.

Hao Mei paid so straightforwardly, so Su Xiao naturally didn't have any restrictions on her. With hundreds of contracts signed, even if Hao Mei wanted to make small moves, she didn't have the conditions.

The most ruthless point of these contracts is not the painful violation cost after adding them up, but the time limit of these contracts, all ending at the end of this world, which means that with the end of this world progress, these contracts will all be lifted.

This is the most terrifying point. If Su Xiao let Hao Mei sign a permanent contract, Hao Mei's thought would be, do whatever you want, anyway, she will not cooperate. There is no hope, so it is better to have some backbone.

Conversely, now, after Hao Mei saw the deadline and destruction date of these hundreds of contracts, her first thought was: "Must survive this world. After leaving this world, any hunter from the Reincarnation Paradise, the night of beheading, these have nothing to do with me."

After this thought appears, Hao Mei will raise her tolerance limit. The thought is, endure a little longer, it will pass soon, just a world progress.

Hao Mei didn't know that there is something called habit. Once she gets used to "endure it, maybe she will never meet this guy named Bai Ye again," she will be completely hooked. In the end, she might even collude, such as Morey and the Moon Apostle who each earned several thousand war merits this time.

Su Xiao checked the fortress data, and a long list appeared. Counting the combat uniforms sold to the human side and the mining income of the fortress, a total of 12,330 units of active ore were income.

These resources can replenish 308,250 pig-headed men for the fortress, plus the subsequent transformation costs in the evolution nest. In other words, after this batch of trade ends, the number of wild boar warriors on their side will increase by at least 240,000. Counting the 230,000 wild boar warriors they already have, a total of 470,000 wild boar warriors will gather into a large army.

With such a strong troop strength, although it is impossible to break into the demi-human territory, it is absolutely possible to establish a defense line in the Border Area and engage in a comprehensive war with the demi-humans.

After the war starts, although their side will have casualties, they can obtain resources through war loot. If the number of pig-headed men on the human side is sufficient, the subsequent troop source will be continuous.

Not only that, as the war continues, Su Xiao's authority in the title store will become higher and higher. He will upgrade the War Lord to an eight-star title by exchanging titles in the title store. Only when that time comes will it be the time to truly reveal his fangs.

This is Su Xiao's development layout. Whether it can go smoothly depends on whether the situation develops as expected.

Besides this point, Su Xiao also made a major discovery. Tens of thousands of dwarf boars mine underground every day. In addition to active ore, they occasionally dig out gemstones with life characteristics, etc. Unfortunately, these items are all in an unnotarized state, except for one resource, which is 【Active Crystal】.

【Active Crystal】 is in active ore. This is not a companion mineral. In the center of a piece of active ore, there must be an 【Active Crystal】, or rather, the surrounding active ore appears because of it.

The Aurora Council, the Demi-human Alliance, and the Watchtower all have explicit regulations that as long as 【Active Crystal】 is mined, it must be handed over. When the experienced mining team and the mobile fortress owner hand over, they can estimate the probable quantity of 【Active Crystal】 in this mineral vein. Therefore, during the mining process, the mine owner dare not not hand over 【Active Crystal】.

The 【Active Crystal】 the size of a walnut in Su Xiao's hand right now was dug out by dwarf boars.

【Active Crystal】

Origin: Ser Star

Quality: Immortal

Type: Active Mineral/Life Force Condensate.

Effect: This crystal contains a large amount of active energy. This active energy also has biological and life characteristics, that is, this crystal contains a huge amount of biological energy.

Score: 1300 points

Introduction: Huge life force is hidden in it.

Selling Price: 530 soul coins.

Judging from the selling price, it is a good choice to take this thing back to the Reincarnation Paradise to set up a stall to sell, or simply sell it to the Reincarnation Paradise.

Su Xiao is not prepared to sell any of them. On the contrary, he wants to get as many 【Active Crystals】 as possible and save them. This thing has great use.

Putting away the 【Active Crystal】, Su Xiao estimated that the time for a comprehensive war with the demi-humans is not far away, and some things must be solved as soon as possible.

"Follow me."

Su Xiao took Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baha and walked out of the room. Seeing this, Hao Mei, who was a bit sleepy due to anemia, got up very reluctantly and followed behind.

After returning from "Kevab Ring City," Su Xiao had already entrusted Caesar to build a teleportation channel between there and Warehouse No. 2 in the Border Area.

Caesar didn't even bargain for this. Why? The reason is that after the event, if Caesar wants to run away, choosing the Sun Fortress in the Border Area is the first choice.

Therefore, creating a branch array diagram connected to the large teleportation array in Warehouse No. 2 in advance is to take precautions. In terms of life safety, Caesar has never been stingy.

Caesar used to have to buy a high-priced personal death insurance in the Void, and the beneficiary was himself. The reason why he didn't buy it in the end was because he didn't get a resurrection prop.

Arriving at Warehouse No. 2, Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Baha all stood on the teleportation array. Hao Mei hesitated a bit. Because Su Xiao's hand was already on the hilt of his knife, she could only stand on the teleportation array.

The teleportation feeling emerged. When the spatial fluctuations subsided, Su Xiao was already in a small room. This small room was about a few square meters, and there were some sundries piled up against the wall.

Pushing open the wooden door, Su Xiao walked into a large room. This was the military logistics office in the outer city of "Kevab Ring City."

On the side of the room was a row of counters. The distance between the counter and the wall behind was about two meters wide. This wall was blocked by a whole wall cabinet, and there were wooden grids of different sizes on the wall cabinet.

As a Quartermaster, Caesar's daily work is to sit behind the counter, waiting for soldiers or officers to bring approval documents to transfer supplies, or waiting for contractors to exchange items with reputation.

Caesar was not behind the counter. He was squatting in front of the stove. On the stove was a suspicious object bubbling in an iron basin.

When Su Xiao looked at the turbid, viscous liquid that was constantly bubbling, and vaguely saw the shape of a sock floating up, he found that something was wrong. The smell permeating the room had already choked his sense of smell numb. He immediately took out a gas mask and buckled it on his face. Just at this moment, Baha's shout came from behind:

"Damn, what is this smell! Ugh~, Caesar, are you cooking shit, ugh~!"

"The socks are not clean, and they have been worn for too long, high-temperature sterilization."

Caesar held a stick and stirred in the turbid, viscous liquid.

"Ugh~"

Hao Mei really couldn't hold it back, pushed open the window and vomited. This was the second floor, and there was no one downstairs.

Half an hour later, Caesar fished out his socks. He originally wanted to air-dry them, but under everyone's opposition, he could only put them into his own storage space.

Caesar stood there thinking for a while, then poured the viscous, dark yellow liquid in the iron basin into a bottle, sealed it, and prepared to go back and adjust it. When used as a projectile, God knows if he will come up with some strange things like 【Caesar's Foot Washing Water (Concentrated Type)】.

The windows were all opened for ventilation. Caesar returned to the bar counter. He sized up Hao Mei and turned to look at Su Xiao, asking: "My dear friend, is this person reliable?"

"Brand reputation is no problem."

"That's good, let's start."

Caesar showed his iconic treacherous smile. He first spat saliva into his palm, then rubbed his hands together. Not long after, yellow smoke was rubbed out. The smoke vaguely formed a few lines of twisted characters, and one could vaguely hear some sounds coming out, as if cursing dirty words in Goblin language.

After doing all this, light yellow light appeared in Caesar's eyes. Almost at the same time, Hao Mei received many prompts.

【Prompt (Void Tree): Due to your excellent performance, you have become a direct subordinate of Quartermaster Nicholas Caesar.】

【Quartermaster Nicholas Caesar has activated his exclusive ability: Turn Black and White (Lv. MAX).】

【Due to the "Turn Black and White (Lv. MAX) ability", you have gained the following benefits.】

【You have completed the special event: Lure the Enemy.】

【9 hours ago, you lured the Sun camp leader Kuku Lin Bai Ye into your own territory and fought fiercely with him. Because the rest of your side failed to reinforce, your luring of the enemy had no strategic significance. This situation has nothing to do with you, so you have gained the following rewards.】

【In this world, your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 22% (if you should have gained 100 camp reputation, you will gain an additional 22 camp reputation).】

【Your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 18% (this is an additional reward received due to the bonus of Quartermaster Caesar's ability).】

【You have completed the strategic event: Infiltrate the Enemy Camp!】

【After you infiltrated the enemy camp Sun Fortress and stole classified information, you successfully returned to Kevab Ring City. After Quartermaster Nicholas Caesar learned of the classified information you provided, he decided to convey this news to his immediate superior "? 5?? 9*?? -? General".】

【Your behavior has been commended.】

【In this world, your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 35%.】

【Your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 25% (this is an additional reward received due to the bonus of Quartermaster Caesar's ability).】

【You have completed the major event: Capture the enemy's highest leader Kuku Lin Bai Ye alive!】

【After you infiltrated the enemy camp, you heroically captured the enemy leader Kuku Lin Bai Ye and his followers Xiang Bubu Te Ni and Baha. In view of your heroic behavior, you will gain...】

【Prompt: Your original reward has been rejected by Caesar through the "Camp Bully (Lv. EX) ability". In view of your heroic performance, all of which were under the command of Quartermaster Caesar, this rejection is passed, and your reward is changed as follows.】

【Because you captured the enemy leader Kuku Lin Bai Ye alive, in this world, your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 150%.】

【Your camp reputation acquisition amount is increased by 30% (this is an additional reward received due to the bonus of Quartermaster Caesar's ability).】

【Your total camp reputation acquisition increase is 280% (that is, if you should have gained 100 camp reputation, you can actually gain 380 points).】

【Because you are grateful to your superior Nicholas Caesar, in order to repay Caesar for his appreciation and promotion, you voluntarily pay 3,200 soul coins as a token of gratitude.】

【You have paid 3,200 soul coins.】

【Due to the transaction tax with Caesar, in this transaction, you need to pay a transaction tax of 1.73% (3200×1.73%=55.36).】

【You have paid an additional 60 soul coins in transaction tax (calculated according to the "round up" formulated by Quartermaster Caesar).】

【This tax is formulated and implemented by Quartermaster Caesar, and the ownership also belongs to Quartermaster Caesar.】

【You paid a total of 3,260 soul coins, and you obtained a "receipt."】

【If you have any objections, you can take this "receipt" to the Reincarnation Paradise to file a complaint and report.】

After this series of prompts appeared, Hao Mei first blinked, then hurriedly checked her existing soul coins. It was indeed 3,260 less. She swore to heaven that this was not her intention.

Hao Mei looked at the 【Receipt】 in her hand. She had a lot to say, but for a moment she didn't know where to start. She hurriedly took a sip of wine to suppress her shock. After letting out a long breath, she didn't know if it was because of anemia or other reasons, she felt a little dizzy.

PS: (The update is late, sorry, Waste Mosquito will never drink white wine again. I lay down all afternoon today to recover, and if I drink white wine again, I am a dog.)
