I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points-Chapter 346 - The New Era Experimental Ship Returns
Chapter 346: The New Era Experimental Ship Returns
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At 8 am, the first auction for the miracle blood, which everyone was watching, finally started.
The announcer was a thin middle-aged man with a beard and a yellow hat. When the leaders of many martial arts factions saw this person, they immediately extinguished their last hope.
The thin middle-aged man was a veteran auctioneer in the industry, and not a staff member from a governmental organization. If they secretly worked together to tamper with the bidding, it would be difficult to hide it from the other party.
This way, no matter what, they would definitely have to play by the rules. Otherwise, even if they managed to get by this time, it would be even worse if they were targeted in the future.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to the auction for the miracle blood.”
The thin middle-aged man on the stage spread his arms, an inexplicable sense of confidence on his face.
The independent martial artists who were not in the private rooms applauded excitedly, their eyes filled with excitement.
The information about the miracle blood had already spread like wildfire.
After all, it was something that could change one’s martial arts talent. Coupled with the blood essence of mutant beasts, it could easily create a bloodline warrior.
It could be said that as long as one had enough miracle blood, a bloodline warrior could theoretically increase their talent to the limit of the mutant beasts.
At the moment, it might be difficult to obtain the blood essence of mutant beasts that had reached the limit of the warrior realm due to their scarcity, but there were too many creatures with the same potential in the otherworld.
There were even some people who thought that there was blood essence of creatures at a higher level than that of a warrior. Even if there was no precedent of success at the moment, could humans who were not talented enough break through to the master realm as bloodline warriors?
At the same time, under everyone’s gaze, a government staff member pushed in a small cart. On it were five tightly sealed boxes of miracle blood.
A bald man followed a few steps behind the staff.
The bald man’s shoulders were three to four times as wide as that of a normal person, and he was more than three meters tall. When he walked, the ground trembled. He was like a small giant.
“Giant!”
Someone gasped as thoughts raced through their minds.
Was the organizer hinting at something? Were they just bluffing? Or was there really something?
“Let’s cut to the chase.”
The thin middle-aged man gestured for silence. Then, he turned to the bald man and introduced, “This man is a bloodline warrior from the special forces. His nickname is Boulder.”
Immediately after, as if they had discussed it beforehand, the bald man tore off his shirt and revealed his strong body to the crowd below the stage. It was obvious that he was the type who had immense strength.
However, this alone was not enough. Pure strength was useless in front of the internal force.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
The bald man did not let the audience wait long. He clenched his fists, and electric sparks immediately appeared on his body. All his muscles and bones began to expand, and he turned into a 10-meter-tall giant.
Following that, the bolts of lightning turned into protective armor. A ferocious aura covered the entire area, and the walls reflected the flashes of light.
“No way!”
This time, even the leaders of the martial arts factions in the private room could not help but suspect that the military had secretly nurtured a special team formed by giant bloodline warriors.
They must also be this type who had peerless strength. As long as there were enough of them, they could play a terrifying role on the battlefield.
This type of warrior was also very coveted by the large martial arts factions, and was very suitable for their ranks.
Backstage, Chen Yiming observed the scene outside with his spiritual power and glanced at Mayor Hong Yi with a strange expression. He didn’t remember ever contributing his own blood essence.
Hong Yi quickly explained, “When the military explored the otherworld, they discovered a human-like race. The genetic analysis report shows that they are closer to humans than barbarians.”
Chen Yiming asked doubtfully, “Is the military going to develop a team of giants?”
Hong Yi continued, “I don’t think so. I’ve interacted with the person in charge of the special forces. Cultivating giant bloodline warriors consumes a lot of the miracle blood. In reality, it isn’t very cost-effective.”
Chen Yiming nodded his head.
The basic function of the miracle blood was to improve one’s physique. And for abilities that relied on one’s body, it was normal for one’s energy to be depleted very quickly.
From the looks of it, the giant bloodline warriors were mainly used for the study of their genes.
When it came to genetic research, there was a problem that could not be avoided. The bloodline warriors nurtured by humans currently had abilities that could not be passed down to the next generation.
In other words, the descendants of bloodline warriors were not bloodline warriors, but normal humans.
Perhaps the military wanted to start with these humanoid creatures to improve the genetic conditions of humans so that the next generation would be born with better talent.
Just as the two of them were chatting about the giant bloodline warriors, the auction quickly reached its climax. Round after round of new bids were shouted.
“A check for 10 tons of mutant beast meat.”
“A check for 30 tons of mutant beast meat.”
“A check for 100 tons of mutant beast meat.”
“A check for 110 tons of mutant beast meat.”
…
Hong Yi smiled awkwardly. “It was all arranged by the higher-ups. I was just following their orders.”
This price was indeed too high. If it was before the production of the miracle blood could be ramped up, the checks for the mutant beast meat would naturally not be able to be exchanged for the miracle blood. However, now, they really had the intention to take advantage of the situation.
Chen Yiming didn’t think much of it.
The martial arts factions that had benefited greatly from following him had to be spurred on. Otherwise, no one would be willing to take the risk to explore the otherworld. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m
If they all stayed on the blue planet and cultivated peacefully, where would they get the huge amount of resources?
To put it bluntly, the rapid development of the Daxia Kingdom was essentially dependent on absorbing the blood of the otherworld.
In addition, the investment needed for the space plan was indeed a bottomless pit. The portion that they could get from the auction could be treated as the price for a ticket for their escape in the future.
That’s right, if one did not want to contribute a portion of their strength to the space plan, how could they obtain the tickets? However, this matter could only be left unsaid.
Half an hour later, the first auction for the miracle blood ended, and it was time for the next auction to begin.
The five boxes of miracle blood were sold at high prices, and were split among the five large martial arts factions from different provinces. This shocked the independent martial artists again.
This was because with the capabilities of the independent martial artists, most of them were not qualified to compete.
This way, the temptation to buy the miracle blood was maximized. This was an extremely successful auction, and it aroused the interest of the entire warrior community.
What they wanted was for the warriors to obediently enter the otherworld and work for the humans.
Chen Yiming walked out from backstage with a small box in his hand. It was a gift from Hong Yi before he left. It contained 100 tubes of miracle blood.
However, the miracle blood he received was different from the ones at the auction.
This was the second time that the ball of flesh in the laboratory of the provincial biological research institute had provided the blood from the finger. The ball of flesh had evolved to a certain extent and produced a small amount of higher-quality miracle blood.
This batch of miracle blood had marks in a conical shape, and could improve one’s physique to the level of a half-step away from the master realm.
…
The next day, the commotion in East Lake City had yet to die down. The miracle blood had become the topic of conversation for countless people. Father Chen and Mother Chen had gone out to join in the fun.
Chen Yingying was cultivating her internal force at home.
Chen Yiming, who could materialize his spiritual power, was helping with the training. The principle was to fight with Chen Yingying for control of the internal force in her body.
Not only did Chen Yingying have to maintain her control over her internal force when there was serious interference, but she also had to gradually train her internal force in various forms.
This was very difficult. If she was not careful, her internal force would slip out of her control and Chen Yiming would take control of it.
Of course, the effect of this internal force training was visible to the naked eye. It could be seen from the expression on Chen Yingying’s face.
“Brother, why didn’t you think of this earlier!”
Suddenly, he heard his sister’s voice.
Chen Yiming turned his gaze to her, then back to the television.
“Because back then, I never needed to consider the issue of controlling my internal force.”
He split his attention between watching the news and helping Chen Yingying with her internal force training.
“Oh,” Chen Yingying muttered as she compared the difference in effect between ordinary training and this new method of training in her mind.
In this moment of distraction, the internal force that enveloped her entire arm left her body like it was a piece of clothing.
When Chen Yingying came back to her senses and tried to regain control, her illusory spiritual power was unable to do anything to the internal force that had completely left her body.
“Are you distracted?”
Chen Yiming glanced at his sister and continued, “Hurry up and make use of every minute and second of training while I’m at home.”
With that, he looked away and turned back to the television.
At this moment, a beautiful announcer announced a piece of good news with a smile. “After a day and night, the New Era experimental ship successfully crossed the Pacific Ocean to reach the South American continent and returned to the Bohai Bay Shipbuilding Base.”
On the screen, the average speed of a traditional ship was displayed, and the average speed of the New Era experimental ship was displayed.
The difference in speed between the two was no longer that of two or three generations. Instead, it was a qualitative difference.
This was just like how bicycles and cars, or gliders and aircraft, were products of completely different eras.
The beautiful announcer continued, “This is a new milestone in the history of human navigation. It was completed by all the members participating in the development of the Daxia Kingdom’s New Era experimental ship.”
The scene changed to a short video.
Lightning flashed in the gloomy sky, and there were dangers hidden under the turbulent surface of the sea. Huge black shadows swam back and forth, circling the New Era experimental ship.
This was because they had been targeted by a powerful aquatic mutant beast. The oppressive atmosphere that assaulted them could be felt even through the screen, and it seemed as if the ship was about to be torn apart.
Unexpectedly, before the black shadow at the bottom of the sea could approach, the New Era experimental ship was the first to attack.
The fragments of the extraordinary weapons connected in a diamond shape to the metal pole at the bow of the ship flashed once, sending an invisible ripple towards the black shadow at the bottom of the sea. In the blink of an eye, a ball of bright red appeared on the screen.
The black shadow, which was at least hundreds of meters long, was actually destroyed from a distance of more than 1,000 meters away. During the process, the sea did not hinder or weaken the attack.
Seeing this, the remaining huge black shadows at the bottom of the sea immediately turned around and fled for their lives.
The scene changed again.
“??Alright!”
“It’s dead!”
The marines shouted one after another. This was really too satisfying.
After the invasion of the otherworld, other than a few martial arts experts who could cross the sea, the sea had actually become a restricted area for human ships.
With maritime trade completely cut off, the navigation industry had suffered heavy losses. The exchanges between the countries on both sides of the sea had become rare, and globalization had quickly regressed to the way it was hundreds of years ago.
“Brother, is this the power of the extraordinary weapons?”
Chen Yingying stared at the television screen and was shocked to see it with her own eyes.
Chen Yiming coughed and reminded her, “That’s only a fragment of an extraordinary weapon. How can a complete weapon only have so little power?”
“So little?” 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
Chen Yingying turned around and widened her eyes. “How powerful is a complete extraordinary weapon?”
Chen Yiming thought for a moment and said, “In reality, at that level, what’s important is the power at a single point. With its range of destructive power, one strike can probably raze Jiangnan province to the ground.”
“Then why did nothing happen when you fought the shadow monster and snatched back three complete extraordinary weapons?”
Chen Yingying looked over curiously.
Chen Yiming raised an eyebrow and said sternly, “Why aren’t you focused on your internal force training? Why are you asking so many questions? That’s not something you should know.”
“Alright!” Chen Yingying pouted and replied.
Then, she continued her internal force training. In order not to let Chen Yingying be distracted, Chen Yiming increased the frequency at which he fought for control of her internal force.
An hour later, Chen Yingying was dispirited and fell to the ground.
Even if the internal force was her own, it would still consume a lot of spiritual power to fight for control over it with Chen Yiming.
“Don’t just sit there. I just obtained a new batch of miracle blood of a higher quality. It’s the best time to apply it to your body to improve your physique,” Chen Yiming reminded her.
At the same time, he thought to himself, “She still needs someone to remind her about such a small matter. No one else can get their hands on the miracle blood, let alone this new batch of improved miracle blood.”
“I’m too tired! Mom isn’t around either. Brother, help me apply some of it first. When I catch my breath, I’ll go back to my room and apply it properly,” Chen Yingying said weakly.
“…”
Chen Yiming was speechless.
Chen Yingying, you’re not a child anymore. You’re a big girl. Even if we’re biological siblings, it’s not appropriate for us to do something so intimate!
In his heart, he firmly refused. This was a matter of principle. He had to draw the line, and there was no room for negotiation.
