Chapter 1119: Turning Stone into Gold
That night, after so diligent work by Zhou Ke'er, Zhang Yi's inner exhaustion was finally relieved, allowing him to completely relax.
However, he did not forget the words spoken by the Dragon King before his death.
Star Island.
Mist Valley.
Abyss.
Black-armored Strange Man.
These terms swirled in his mind, lingering for a long ti without dissipating.
A chaotic murmur echoed in his ears, like a disordered, delirious speech.
Now, only by continuously enhancing his own power and strengthening the shelter's defensive capabilities could he ensure that he and his companions would not suffer calamity in the apocalypse.
A person always needs a harbor; the body is secondary, the heart is most important.
Zhang Yi had now grown accustod to the feeling of having family by his side. He could not imagine what kind of pain he would endure if he lost these family mbers.
So, starting the next day, he intensified his supervision of the shelter's companions.
Everyone had to exercise and do their best to familiarize themselves with and enhance their superhuman abilities.
As for Zhang Yi himself, he absorbed the remaining origin of the Dragon King.
Lu Keran had barely absorbed any; in fact, most of it was still absorbed by Zhang Yi.
According to his estimate, once he completely absorbed and digested the Dragon King's power, then transford that power into his own strength, he could match Xuanwu, reaching the height of a 15,000-point superhuman ability index.
anwhile, with the help of Yangsheng Base and Qingpu Base, Dawn Rain Base was also being rapidly rebuilt.
The current Dawn Rain Base had ford a triumvirate structure.
The base's leader was Lu Dahai, personally appointed by Zhang Yi.
The base's second-in-command was the strategist Chen Jingguan, who always seed well-suited for the role of deputy leader. Zhang Yi had once jokingly called him a "dog-headed military advisor."
And the third-in-command was Gao Tianwu. The organization he led, [Martial Gate], had firmly established itself in Dawn Rain Base.
In the apocalypse, as long as a person possesses sufficiently powerful ability, they will eventually get their chance to rise.
Gao Tianwu's ability level was also Delta, and based on Zhang Yi's observation, his potential tier might even surpass Lu Dahai's.
So Zhang Yi placing him in Dawn Rain Base was also a form of temporary cultivation.
If conditions beca suitable in the future, Zhang Yi even had plans to establish a fourth base along the coastal border.
Only with two coastal defense bases coexisting could the safety of the coastline be guaranteed.
And right at this ti, Zhang Yi received his biggest recent surprise.
His investnt in Lu Keran had yielded a massive return!
The Epsilon-level origin power had completely unlocked Lu Keran's talent.
She rested at ho for a full half-month before completely digesting that power.
On this day, she excitedly ran over to find Zhang Yi, extending her tightly clenched right hand towards him.
When she opened her fist, a piece of deford gold appeared in her palm.
"What is this?"
Lu Keran smiled and said, "It's toilet paper! Brother, I can now change the structure of matter. Although I can only change it a little bit, it's already completely sufficient for applying to strengthening the shelter's defenses!"
Zhang Yi took the gold from her palm and looked closely. Wasn't it exactly the shape of a piece of toilet paper?
Zhang Yi exclaid in amazent, "Turning stone into gold? An ability that only exists in myths and legends has actually appeared?"
Zhang Yi was extrely delighted in his heart. Lu Keran's ability improvent ca at such a tily mont, precisely when he needed it most.
"What do you plan to do?"
Zhang Yi asked Lu Keran joyfully.
Lu Keran told Zhang Yi her plan.
"Changing the properties of matter requires enormous energy to break the original structure between particles. It's actually not an easy task."
"But, if it's just changing the state and density of material particles, causing their properties to change, it's very simple!"
Lu Keran's current ability allowed her to upgrade and transform the shelter without damaging its original structure, incorporating other materials to increase its strength.
"If one day, the entire shelter can be transford into a substance surpassing Adamantine tal, then even an Epsilon-level superhuman would not be able to easily break through the shelter's defenses!"
Lu Keran said excitedly.
"I already have a plan for this project. Although progress will be relatively slow, given half a year, I can strengthen the entire shelter's outer walls once over!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yi felt as if struck by lightning.
After the apocalypse, he rarely felt regret over his own decisions.
But this ti, he truly felt so regret.
"If only I had left the Divine Source for you to use back then, that would have been good."
Zhang Yi covered his forehead and spoke from the heart.
Science and technology are the primary productive forces. The knowledge he learned from history textbooks, he really must have learned it only to forget it.
Perhaps after the apocalypse, the ergence of superhumans made him sowhat underestimate traditional military power and technology.
He only thought that Hua Hua was the main combat force, so he prioritized strengthening it.
"If I had known earlier, I would have chosen you to use the Divine Source. You might have even led us to fight our way to the moon by now!"
Lu Keran scratched her head sheepishly.
"Actually... that's not impossible!"
For the current Lu Keran, the Divine Machinery Manipulation ability had already made her a humanoid super-factory.
As long as there were sufficient materials, there was nothing she couldn't create.
"Brother, give it to !"
Lu Keran suddenly reached out her hand to Zhang Yi.
"Give you what?"
Zhang Yi inquired.
"Your gun! Oh right, and that batch of bullets I gave you before. Bring them all over, I'll help you reprocess them! I guarantee I can improve the output efficiency."
Lu Keran leaned close to Zhang Yi and whispered in his ear, "And the light-duty powered armor I ntioned I wanted to build before is almost finished now!"
Zhang Yi's eyes quickly lit up.
"Great, great, great, Keran, brother is liking you more and more!"
Lu Keran's face flushed slightly. She pursed her lips and didn't speak, but her small hands, placed behind her back and fidgeting together, betrayed the emotions in her heart.
[Brother Zhang Yi is the best.]
Zhang Yi handed everything over to Lu Keran for her to help rebuild.
After Lu Keran left, Zhang Yi was still sighing incessantly.
Indeed, developing the tech tree is the most useful in the late ga. This little girl is a typical late-ga hero.
After all, now that Zhang Yi had reached his current level, trying to improve further was becoming increasingly difficult.
But stones from other hills can be used to polish jade. Utilizing technological power could still give his overall strength a significant boost.
After a night of busy work without sleep, Lu Keran finally completed the brand-new upgrade of Zhang Yi's weapons and equipnt.
When she handed the weapons and ammunition to Zhang Yi, although her expression was weary, she couldn't suppress the excitent all over her face.
Nothing excites a chanist more than achieving a major technological breakthrough.
