Chapter 424 – Departing Again

TL : GoldenLung

When Xiao Qi saw Lan Xuanyu open his bag and take out the rare metals, he really wanted to leave immediately. Other than feeling gratified, he couldn’t help but also feel a little jealous. Why didn’t he have this ability back in school?

If they brought these rare metals back, it would be right at the moment for them to start learning how to make Battle Armors during the next semester. Wasn’t that timing too perfect?

In fact, Lan Xuanyu had no intention of selling these rare metals. After refining them, the purity of these rare metals had surpassed 90% and with just a little more forging, he would be able to achieve Hundred and Thousand Refinements.

During the process of upgrading Battle Armors, from One-Word to Two-Word and even higher levels, there were actually many types of rare metals that had to be Fuse Forged in order to enhance the strength and characteristics of Battle Armors.

Many of those rare metals, especially the precious Heavenly Spirit Iron, were already not easy to buy. He might as well keep them for his own use. It was fine with his teammates as they also needed rare metals too. Hence, he only needed to hand Bing Tianliang’s team and Tang Yuge’s rare metals.

Due to the additional requirement of one more type of rare metal, Lan Xuanyu adjusted the rest time from 10 hours to 8 hours.

In fact, with their cultivation, three to four hours were enough for them to recover to their peak condition. The reason why they had more rest was because Lan Xuanyu hoped that everyone could rest completely. After all, they had gone on a mission immediately after arriving at Resource Planet Number Four on the spacecraft and didn’t have any rest at all. They took this time to rest and reorganize. The sharpening of a knife doesn’t delay the work of cutting firewood. It was better to adjust their state before completing the remaining missions.

Lan Xuanyu could guess that the last type of metal was the hardest part of their mission. This was also the reason why he wanted everyone to be in good condition.

According to their speed from last time, it would take about 5 hours for them to leave the central region and reach the ring-shaped mountain range. Moreover, walking on a mountain path was difficult and they were not sure how difficult it would be. They might need more time.

Hence, Lan Xuanyu calculated that they would reach their destination in 12 hours. There might be other changes during this period and they would have to adapt to the situation.

Now that there was another type of rare metal, they would have to look for a place outside of the ring-shaped mountain range where two types of rare metals converged. This would save them the most time.

According to his original plan, they would go out again and let themselves be swept away by the whirlwind. After flying in the air for a period of time, they would be able to increase their speed.

But it was no longer possible now. The area outside the ring-shaped mountain range was extremely vast, but there were only four to five types of rare metals. Some of the areas were still empty, indicating that there weren’t any rare metals. If they were swept away, it might take up even more time. They had to find a specific destination and could only advance from the ground.

After 8 hours of rest and reorganization, everyone could be said to have eaten their fill, drank their fill, and slept well. When they left the base again, it could be said that they were full of energy.

Before setting off, Lan Xuanyu told his teammates the destination he was looking for on the map. After confirming that there was no mistake, they set off again.

In the control room.

“These little guys have set off again. He knows when to hold the reins and when to relax. This young man in charge of commanding is not bad! If he wants to join the military in the future, he can come over to my place.” The colonel smiled and said to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi said, “You should give up on this. Many people are paying attention to this kid. It’s the same in the academy. The possibility of him joining the military isn’t high and it shouldn’t be a problem for him to get into the Inner Court. Once he enters the Inner Court and still can continuously surprise the academy like he is now, I reckon that he will be retained.”

“Remain in school?” Upon hearing these two words, a tinge of envy flashed across the colonel’s eyes. In fact, very few people knew that among all the graduates in Shrek Academy, including the Inner Court disciples, those who could stay in school were the most outstanding talents. Those students would truly become a part of Shrek.

However, there were very few places to stay in the academy, and those who could stay were all extremely outstanding people. The proportion of Inner Court disciples who stayed in the academy was not high. Among those who entered the Inner Court, who didn’t want to stay, even if they had to go out to complete various missions for the academy, they were all unwilling to leave the Inner Court.

“This boy’s cultivation isn’t high yet, but he already has all sorts of amazing performances. When he obtains his One-Word Battle Armor and truly completes the Duo Mecha Master courses, I wonder what kind of changes would happen. As his teacher, I’m looking forward to this day.”

The colonel laughed. “You’re showing off, aren’t you? What’s the point of showing off in front of me? It should be done in another two years, right? Class leader, when did you complete the first phase of the Duo Mecha Master courses? Was it during the third or fourth year?”

Xiao Qi’s face darkened. “I forgot.”

The colonel smiled. “That can’t be. I remember that you were the last in our class. It really wasn’t easy for you! Many people were taken aback that you were still able to get into the Inner Court.”

“Shut up or I’ll cut you,” Xiao Qi said in annoyance.

He couldn’t bear to look back on the past. His talent was average and being able to get into the Inner Court meant that he had put in a lot of blood and tears! Even he didn’t want to recall that pain and didn’t think that he could persevere if he had to do it again.

It wasn’t easy to find someone similar to him in this new batch of students. He wanted him to take the same path as he did back then and let him see the shadow of himself from him. But who knew that this brat would evolve his Martial Soul and have the White Dragon King Martial Soul that possessed a Dragon King’s bloodline. How could this be reasonable? If he had such luck back then, it wouldn’t have been so tough!

After leaving the base, they took advantage of the fact that there were no whirlwinds and sprinted at full speed. With Lan Xuanyu’s wind element and the Blue Silver Grass’ enhancement, their speed was faster than when they left the base for the first time. Having familiarized themselves with the situation here, they naturally didn’t have to be as cautious as before.

They still used the ice house to protect themselves. When they encountered a whirlwind, everyone rested inside it temporarily. Once the whirlwind was gone, they immediately moved forward.

Furthermore, Lan Xuanyu realized that as long as he followed behind the whirlwind, the possibility of encountering another whirlwind would decrease substantially. Hence, he chose to follow. Although it was a detour, they encountered fewer whirlwinds and their overall speed increased quite a bit.

They moved forward with ease, and arrived almost 40 minutes earlier than expected. From afar, they could already see the undulating mountain range ahead.

“We’ll rest at the foot of the mountain for half an hour,” Lan Xuanyu said.

Everyone arrived at the foot of the mountain and found a relatively sunken mountain wall to build an ice house. Lan Xuanyu got Yuanen Huihui to take out all sorts of food and water from his storage bracelet to replenish everyone’s physical strength. The supplies contained in their backpacks were only the most basic ones, and they had also brought some from the Mother Planet.

What shocked Bing Tianliang the most was when Yuanen Huihui took out a can of Sea God Lake water from his storage bracelet.

Everyone had something to drink.

After drinking a cup of Sea God Lake, his vitality immediately flourished and his fatigue was swept away.

“Extravagant, you guys are simply too extravagant!” Bing Tian exclaimed as he drank, his eyes filled with envy. ‘This is what one called being filthy rich! Always carrying Sea God Lake water on one’s body !’
