Chapter 1035: Offering 1

Garen bent over to search the man. He instantly found a number of large and small information-storage devices on the fellow.

These storage devices were labeled with different words like medicine, materials, metal, and rare creatures. The most crucial thing was actually a treasure illustration diagram.

In addition, there was also a space bracelet on this person, and it had been unceremoniously taken by Garen.

After searching once more, Garen did not touch some of the things that were possibly the proof of his identity, but all other valuables were taken by him.

From an ambush action all the way to Garen's killing of the enemy, it took mere seconds. When the battle was over, Garen quickly changed direction and accelerated.

After more than half an hour, he changed direction again and moved at high speed between the hills. He repeated this three times and found another fresh Earth-Feeding Frog to remove the traces of the residual radiation from his body. He then again changed direction and advanced for more than an hour. Finally, he came to a deep crack in the earth.

Seeing the crack, Garen looked down from the edge and climbed down the steep cliff. He then began to dig a hole in the wall. After about ten minutes, a cave was dug out. He wormed in right away and used stones and mud to block the hole, leaving only air vents. This would be considered a temporary seclusion spot.

Standing in the cave surrounded by darkness, Garen took out a fluorescent device purporting to illuminate the surrounding from his space ring and placed it on a small stone platform that was set aside on the wall.

Immediately, a faint, white light spread over the entire cave which was about a dozen square meter wide.

Looking around the cave, it was oval-shaped and a small earthen bed was made at the innermost part. Garen walked to the edge of the earthen bed, took out from the space ring a mat that had been prepared in advance, and then the mattress and blanket.

After laying these things out one by one, he finally pulled out a red cylinder with a faint red light on it.

By gently tapping this thing, the entire cylinder suddenly emitted a large amount of heat. It began to drive away the coldness of the entire cave, drying every damp spot in the cave. This kind of thermal radiation also had insecticidal and bactericidal effects which could form an absolute isolation zone from the small worm pathogens.

Garen went to the doorway and looked through the air vents for a while. He placed a small alarm in the air vent. This thing could sense any creatures approaching and alert him directly in his Energy Machine Imprint.

It was only after settling everything did Garen take out some food and drink. He used a radiation heater to heat up the pre-prepared fresh milk and then, he took out his homemade pasta, cakes, muffins, preserved fruit and the like.

Each one was baked using the heater.

Garen himself sat comfortably on the bed and began looking through the information storage devices he had just obtained.

Recalling the Perpetual Motion-Level magic device that the man mentioned just now, something crossed his mind. He first took out the treasure-related storage device and viewed it.

The contents of the storage device were easily opened and Garen scanned the description of the treasure.

'For Energy Machinists, all precious items that are rare and cannot be replicated are called treasures. There are only two kinds of treasures: conventional, and Perpetual Motion-Level. The conventional ones will decay and be perish over time, while the Perpetual Motion Levels will not undergo such a process. They will constantly renew themselves, strengthening themselves and making themselves increasingly stronger as time goes on.'

'There are thirty-eight kinds of conventional treasures on the market. '

There were a few illustration diagrams densely packed below it, all of which introduced various conventional treasures.

Garen gave a look at them. Many of them were things that could increase the Willpower of Energy Machinists or pilots. They were indeed very precious.

However, his key emphasis was not here. What he wanted to know more was what level of treasure was his Sunlight Demonic Blade.

He flipped across the information screen quickly and soon, the category of Perpetual Motion-Level treasure appeared before Garen. The first thing on it that entered his view was a triangular black shield.

The surface of the shield was covered with dense bone spikes and it was surrounded by a dark blue halo. The halo was composed of a large number of pattern symbols, looking looked extremely mysterious.

'Perpetual motion magic device: Million Bone Shield.'

A row of small words indicated.

Then, there was no more. There was no more content at the back of the screen.

The entire information storage device seemed to only have such a perpetual motion magic device.

Garen also skimmed through the function and usage of the conventional treasures. Putting away this thing, he could roughly know the preciousness of Perpetual Motion-Level magic device.

The conventional treasures recorded in the treasure illustration diagram were not only unique, but some of them were special products unique to some of the sects, resources that would only be possessed by them. For example, The Black Knife's Black Silver Necklace was a mass-produced treasure exclusive to the Black Knife. Of course, even though it was mass-produced, it was still extremely expensive. The market price on the illustration diagram was two hundred thousand golden crystals for one, and it was only available to those Energy Machinists who had good relations with Black Knife or were introduced to them. Pilots and other professions who wanted it would be comparable to dreaming about it.

There was also a specialty of a top-family from the Four Ring Star Alliance, hibernating water. It allowed the Energy Machinist to enter a special hibernation state and sleep for one year. After that, most of the illnesses and serious injury would recover and at the same time, it also had great benefits for the stabilizing of Willpower and for the assisting in breaking through the bottleneck of levels. The supply was only qualified for the top elite of the family. Others did not even need to think about it.

Since the conventional treasures were already so rare, by comparison, perpetual motion magic devices would naturally be even rarer and more precious.

The basic Perpetual Motion-Level magic devices were priceless. Once they were discovered, they were likely to be hunted down and snatched.

At this thought, Garen became more vigilant deep inside.

"It seems that it won't matter if Sunlight Demonic Blade is not used. But once it is used, all witnesses would have to be wiped out!"

Tucking away the treasure illustration diagram, Garen waited a little while to confirm that there were indeed fewer creatures around.

He looked at the clock timer in his Energy Machine Imprint. It had been more than a day since he entered Void Battlefield.

"It's almost time," He stabilized the state of his body, heartbeat, and breath.

Gradually closing both eyes, he slowly started to concentrate and hold his breath.

An unknown time had passed, it could be one minute or maybe ten.

Garen abruptly opened his eyes and raised his hand lightly. The jar containing the Void Caterpillar was suddenly thrown out and rolled out in front of him in mid-air.

He opened his mouth and spurted a beam of Scarlet Mist, hitting the center of the jar accurately.

Boom!

The jar was broken to pieces and the caterpillar inside was crushed into a meat paste by the Scarlet Mist. Like a black dyestuff, it smeared a layer of black on the Scarlet Mist.

The black layer was like paint, lustrous and emitting a faint sweetness.

Garen opened his mouth again and sucked in the Scarlet Mist.

Whew...

He heaved out a long breath and his entire face turned from white to red, as if it was congested.

Time passed slowly again...

Garen's face changed from red to blue and slowly to green.

The color of green continued for more than half an hour before it changed back to red, and then from red slowly back to white and to the original skin color.

Two Energy Machine Imprints gradually emerged behind him. They were rotating continuously, releasing a faint cloud-like mist to surround Garen.

Whichever spot these clouds and white air came into contact with, whether it was the bed or the wall surface, they would slowly dry up as though they were being drained. Meanwhile, the temperature was getting lower and colder.

About a few hours later, Garen slowly opened his eyes.

The color of the two Energy Machine Imprints behind him gradually changed from a faint white transparent to a slightly solidified feeling. It seemed to give people a sense of substance as it condensed from an illusion into reality.

"Entering the plane of Level Five is now considered stabilized. It indeed is a void product. The quality is really good." Garen was in a much better mood. The effect of the Void Caterpillar was better than he had expected, allowing his Energy Machine Imprint Willpower to enter the solidification period.

In fact, each level was divided into an accumulation period and solidification period according to the words of those Energy Machinists who stayed at each level for many years.

Accumulation period meant that after just entering a new level, one needed to accumulate and sediment to adapt to the new level of strength, combat methods, as well as the use of experience techniques with Willpower and some necessary special means. When these things were completely mastered, then the stability of the Willpower was to be looked at.

Having just entered a new level, it was possible that there would be a temporary deterioration phenomenon in the Energy Machine Imprint. Hence, he needed time to stabilize. This would generally take months or even years.

The effect of Void Caterpillar was to shorten this time so that this process of few months or even years would quickly stabilize.

This stuff had the effect of nourishing and stabilizing the structure of Willpower. That was why it was sold this expensively.

After the stabilization of the level, it was the so-called solidification period, which meant that all aspects were stable and the next advancement could be carried out.

It was like laying the foundation in the ground. Only when the base was deep enough, stable enough, and wide enough could a higher building be built.

After absorbing the Void Caterpillar, Garen stretched out his hand, opened his mouth softly and spurted a dark blue line of fire from his mouth again.

The slender blue line of fire slowly levitated above the palm of his hand, rotating.

"The Power of Inheritance..." Garen watched this blue line of fire.

This was the strand of the Power of Inheritance that he had been hiding in his body. It had been constantly suppressing the power of the demonic blade Sunlight and at the same time, his secret tactic was absorbing it continually. However, now it seemed to not have any effect.

"After successfully cultivating the secret tactic, Magic Light Fist from the Ice Magic Scroll, the Sunlight can then be mastered. Once the demonic blade Sunlight is mastered, that trace of Power of Inheritance can then be acquired without fear of being hurt back. One link interrelated with another. How thorough."

Garen sighed with slight admiration.

"But now, it is time to completely resolve this hidden danger. By remaining in the body all the time, if any day it cannot be mastered, the Power of Inheritance will instantly turn from a treasure into a curse."

A thought arose in Garen and the Demonic Blade Sunlight slowly appeared on his side. It was held by him as he reached out his hand.

The hilt was still burning blue flames. Scorching heat and cold chill were surging non-stop in the narrow underground space, making the entire underground cavity half-cold and half-hot.

Huh!

Suddenly, Garen gave a deep roar, held the knife and directly slashed onto the Power of Inheritance.

Clang!

The blue line of flames struck. As it was caught off guard, the Power of Inheritance was hacked into two by the demonic blade. In a flash, the two lines twisted insanely, resembling two snakes that were alive, and rushed toward Garen.

Clang clang clang!

Garen rapidly slashed out three slices once again.

Each blade slashed on each of the Power of Inheritance.
