My Items Can Upgrade-Chapter 260 - 161: Want to Cry (85/101)

"Boom!"

"Boom—"

The group of crab soldiers in the rear exploded one after another. Because the distance was too far, they didn’t even know how they died.

...

"That dragon from earlier didn’t seem like an ordinary Flood Dragon? Its defense is too strong, even my Golden Arm Crossbow couldn’t take it down with one shot."

"But as long as it’s not at the Sky Level, it’s fine. At most, it just takes a couple more arrows."

On the city wall.

Yang Yuan casually loaded a wooden crossbow arrow, then put away his arm and continued laying bricks.

The shot that blew off half the dragon’s head earlier was fired by him.

Anyway, with Jiang Yiyi around, there’s no need to worry about creatures from the ocean silently approaching.

Weaker oceanic giant beasts are handled by Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi.

For stronger ones, he will make a move.

And it shouldn’t be long before Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi’s arm crossbows can be upgraded further.

"I’m afraid these Spirit Monster Cores won’t be enough."

While laying bricks, Yang Yuan frowned.

He once thought he had more Spirit Monster Cores than he could ever use.

But in order to arrange the array and embed ’lights’ for the city—

This was just a small part, yet already more than two million Spirit Monster Cores had been spent.

In some public places, he even used Human Level Spirit Monster Cores to embed.

"I wonder if there are any spirit monsters nearby. Tai Lang, make sure to keep an eye out. If there are any large groups of spirit monsters nearby, let me know."

Yang Yuan said to Tai Lang who was passing bricks to him.

"Alright." Tai Lang nodded.

...

"Sister Jiayan, those ’people’ in the sea are so strange."

On the beach, as she was gaining arm crossbow experience with Zhao Jiayan, Jiang Yiyi suddenly said.

"How are they strange?" Zhao Jiayan was puzzled. Aren’t they just humanoid creatures?

Maybe it’s an intelligent race from the seabed.

However, Jiang Yiyi said, "Those ’people’ also have Spirit Monster Cores in their bodies."

"Spirit Monster Cores?"

Zhao Jiayan was stunned, her beautiful eyes blinking. It seemed that Yang Yuan needed Spirit Monster Cores now.

But unfortunately, those Spirit Monster Cores are in the sea, and if nothing unexpected happens, they are in the deep sea ten kilometers away.

Even if Yang Yuan could hold his breath to go that far, it didn’t seem worth it for just a few Spirit Monster Cores.

"But, those crab-like humanoids are actually not normal ocean creatures, but are spirit monsters?"

Zhao Jiayan thought about it and decided to tell Yang Yuan about this when he had some free time.

In the evening, Jiang Yiyi once again sensed the approach of those humanoid crabs.

Without any hesitation, she fired directly.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom—"

There were massive explosions in the direction of the deep sea, and any humanoid lobsters within ten kilometers were shot and blown up by her.

If it were anyone else, shooting targets in the water might end up off-target, as water causes light refraction.

But Jiang Yiyi didn’t rely on her eyes to see the target. With the arm crossbow that has an Aim Assistance Effect, there’s no possibility of shooting off target.

...

"Bastards, those land creatures are simply unreasonable!"

"Damn it!"

Ao Wuming was furious.

He originally planned to first intimidate those land creatures, to let them know that the Dragon Palace’s majesty cannot be violated, giving them a minor punishment for slaughtering sea giants earlier.

But before they could even approach, they were directly blasted apart, and only he, a lone dragon, returned alive. All the crab soldiers were shot and blasted by the light which even he couldn’t withstand.

The second time, he intended to be more tactful, bringing fewer people.

After all, they were going to negotiate, not to fight, so there was no need to bring so many people.

But the result was the same; they were blasted apart before getting close.

This time he was lucky enough; the power of the light he encountered wasn’t so great, and it couldn’t penetrate his defense.

"Damn it, after so many years, have the land creatures forgotten the majesty of the Dragon Palace?!"

Ao Wuming wanted to dispatch an army to devastate the land, but recalling the first wave of attacks where many Deep Sea Giant Beasts were annihilated before even reaching the shore—

And since the other side possesses an attack method that’s nearly at light speed, he dared not show himself to make demands.

...

"Those humanoid crabs in the deep sea are actually spirit monsters?"

During dinner, Yang Yuan looked at Zhao Jiayan in surprise.

"That’s what Yiyi said," Zhao Jiayan replied.

Yang Yuan looked towards Jiang Yiyi.

"Those ’people’ that were shot and exploded had shiny things coming out, but they all shattered," Jiang Yiyi said.

Indeed, the power of the Marvel Arm Crossbow is not trivial. Even Jiang Yiyi’s Level 19 Marvel Arm Crossbow has a range of four thousand kilometers.

With such a range, ordinary Spirit Monster Cores simply can’t withstand it.

Yang Yuan felt a bit of regret over this. He had sensed earlier that those humanoid crabs seemed to be Earth Level creatures.

He has one Heavenly Level Spirit Monster Core, but hasn’t obtained any Earth Level ones yet. He wonders how much stronger Earth Level Spirit Monster Cores are compared to Human Level ones.

But they probably won’t be weak at all.

"How much longer will it take for the city to be completed?" Zhao Jiayan asked.

Yang Yuan thought for a moment: "If we want to completely finish building the houses, it will probably still take two months. I forgot to account for all the houses inside the city originally."

"Can’t we have others help? With so many people, if everyone could help, the speed would surely be faster," Zhao Jiayan suggested.

Yang Yuan thought it over: "Alright, I’ll conduct an experiment tomorrow."

The next morning, just after dawn, Yang Yuan gathered everyone together.

He had Ye Kuan create a large number of small bricks and began the experiment.

First, he dug the foundations himself and had people construct the small house, naturally resulting in no data.
