Ch 126: It’s Not Necessary, Really Not Necessary
“…Next, we will go to the Zhao Family.”
In front of the tall Clarity Spirit Mother Tree, Qi Xuan said in a deep voice to the camera:
“Currently, we have three main objectives in going to the Zhao Family.”
“First, to further investigate the situation of other families, to understand the spread of the 【Bone-Spur Disease】, and to verify whether other families have found a cure.”
“Second, as we mentioned before, the Jade Box left by Nangong Yaohua needs us to open it through Zhao Lingyun.
Two hundred years later, finding a person whose name is only known and who is very likely already dead is a slim hope, with a nine-tenths probability of not being found at all.
But even if there is one in ten thousand chance, we have to try, after all, this is related to two Clarity Spirit Jade Dew that can be used immediately.
If we get the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew, it is equivalent to getting a guarantee, even if the 【Bone-Spur Disease】 breaks out immediately, we don’t need to be too anxious.
After all, it is still unknown whether the Mother Tree’s Tree Seed can be cultivated, and even if it can, it will still take a long time from planting to fruiting, and we may not be able to wait.”
“As for the third point, it is related to the Mother Tree’s Tree Seed. Other families may have specially formulated Spiritual Liquid that can be used to cultivate the Tree Seed.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if there is no Spiritual Liquid. We may encounter other usable Spiritual Plants on the road, and we don’t necessarily have to rely on various families.
But the Cultivation treasure is not possible, after all, I can’t refine, this thing can only be found through various families.
In my estimation, the Cultivation treasure should not be so easy to find, but we have to try.”
“So let’s set off. The Zhao Family is not close to here, and because of the impact of the Sun Collapse, the terrain has also changed a lot. The map we got before can only serve as a reference and cannot completely follow the route above.
The journey ahead may take a lot of time. I hope there will be no unexpected twists and turns. I wish us to arrive at the Zhao Family as soon as possible.”
After saying that, Qi Xuan didn’t delay any further. He turned over and rode on Sunday, roughly identified the direction, and then clamped his legs, urging Sunday to move forward.
Seeing Qi Xuan and Sunday set off one after another, the netizens in the Live Stream Room also started to discuss:
“I didn’t expect that the Jade Box also contained Clarity Spirit Jade Dew. The next progress will definitely far exceed our expectations.”
“Yes, as long as we find Zhao Lingyun, we don’t need to plant trees, we can get the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew on the spot.”
“I don’t know what the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew looks like. If Qi God shows us in detail and provides various characteristic features, maybe we can simulate her composition in reality.”
“Virtual Creation is out of the question. If you want to get the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew, I think it’s better to sweep the entire Island thoroughly, lick every corner of the ground clean, maybe you can find clues related to the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew.”
“The Island is indeed a way. After all, the Four-Armed Monster is a real existence. Since there are Four-Armed Monsters, maybe there are Clarity Spirit Trees guarded by Four-Armed Monsters. Even if the tree has withered, through modern medicine and biology, maybe we can still break through the composition of the Clarity Spirit Jade Dew and then mass-produce it.”
“The key to the problem is that even if there is a Clarity Spirit Tree, it is likely in the Dense forest where the Four-Armed Monster roams. If you want to contact the Clarity Spirit Tree, you must first defeat the monster, but how can those monsters be so easily solved?”
“Don’t worry, the official has already formulated a complete defense plan, and the Island early warning platform has also been built, which can share information related to the Four-Armed Monster at any time and master its movements.
And although the Four-Armed Monster looks very strong and weird, but referring to Qi God’s handling process, it is not really impossible to kill, but now because we are worried that there may be a Clarity Spirit Tree in the Dense forest, we cannot project large-scale weapons.
For the time being, we may only be able to rely on high-precision small-scale pinpoint killing methods to defeat the enemy, or simply lure out the Four-Armed Monster and then concentrate on bombing it.”
“Forget about luring it out. If we can’t kill it and can’t send it back, we might accidentally make things worse.
In my opinion, the Four-Armed Monster can rely on human Martial Cultivators to deal with it, for example, dispatching ten Land Immortals to besiege it.
Of course, although Great Grandmasters have appeared now, it is not so easy to cultivate into Land Immortals. Even the world’s top Geniuses may still take several years. Maybe during this period, the Four-Armed Monster will have new changes, or the Clarity Spirit Tree that may still be alive on the island will completely die.
So, I have a suggestion, we can lower the Martial force Realm, for example, Supreme Grandmaster, or Great Grandmaster.
Build a siege army with a hundred Great Grandmasters. The single-person attack power and defense power may not be enough, but we can add them through various modern equipment.
Human physical fitness is too fragile, so that many weapons are restricted by individuals and cannot be loaded in a single-soldier state, including bulletproof vests. No matter how strong the bulletproof vest is, it is not as good as a piece of battleship armor, but battleship armor can crush people to death just by putting it on.
But now the physical fitness of Great Grandmasters far exceeds ordinary humans. We can completely customize bulletproof vests for them with battleship armor, and equip them with heavy weapons and equipment at the missile level. In this way, even if there are only a hundred Great Grandmasters, it may not be impossible to successfully besiege the Land Immortal.”
“This proposal is a bit interesting, but although the armor bulletproof vest can greatly improve the wearer’s defense, the extremely high weight will also affect the Great Grandmaster’s reaction ability and maneuverability.
The Land Immortal’s attack speed is extremely fast, and the damage is also great. We can’t let them all become iron cans that are beaten, and besides, even if it is an iron can made of armor, it can’t withstand the Land Immortal’s beating.”
“I’m studying aerospace. Regarding maneuverability, I have a suggestion. We can add a miniature turbojet engine or electric propulsion system to the armor bulletproof vest, and achieve three-dimensional maneuverability through a vector nozzle. The power source can be a high-energy density battery to ensure endurance.
In addition, we can add an auxiliary control system that integrates attitude control modules and biosensors, and monitor the Great Grandmaster’s muscle movement intentions in real time, and automatically adjust the thrust direction to form human-machine collaboration. For example, when the legs are detected to be exerting force, the engine automatically provides thrust to enhance the explosive force.”
“Add an AI to coordinate the battle, and the intelligent platform will build a real-time battlefield perception network, connecting the weapon system and remote firepower. On the one hand, it can allow the Great Grandmaster to mobilize remote firepower including UAVs to assist in the siege, and on the other hand, once the Great Grandmaster cannot resist the Land Immortal, it can also let the UAVs concentrate on attacking and give them time to retreat.”
“Damn it! I’m in the Da Qian’s landing team. Brothers, say more, I’ll draft a report and submit it to the leaders above.”
“No, buddy, are you serious?”
“Since there are conditions, why not give it a try?”
“Where are the conditions?”
“I’ve roughly calculated for you, the armor materials are silicon carbide and boron carbide, as well as fiber-reinforced composite materials, and multi-layer heterogeneous structures are available.
We already have many types of miniature turbojet engines, such as MTE-160 and other models.
As for guided missiles, there are the world’s smallest sleeve arrow guided missiles, with a range of 2 kilometers and a weight of 1.2 kilograms. The Great Grandmaster can carry a hundred of them at a time. If you think the power is small, we can also change to a larger size.
AI’s anti-electromagnetic interference optical link technology can ensure zero-delay transmission in complex environments… Putting these things together, it seems that we can also put them together, it seems that it is not impossible.”
“Damn! Can it still be like this?!”
“I want to see it now, immediately, right away!”
“If you want to see it, please give your opinions quickly.”
…
The many netizens in the Live Stream Room spoke enthusiastically. On the No. 4 Aircraft Carrier, Military Officer Little Li recorded the broadcast with a camera while frantically recording relevant information.
When the live broadcast ended, he roughly compiled the relevant intelligence and combined it with the existing equipment to form a report.
Then this report was submitted to Liu Wang’s desk.
After carefully reading it, Liu Wang didn’t say anything, but instead gathered the relevant personnel and held an internal meeting.
At the meeting, he first asked Little Li to give a detailed explanation of the report content, and then said:
“Regarding Little Li’s report on this Great Grandmaster armed forces, according to our current technological level, I think it still has a considerable degree of feasibility. Everyone might as well talk about their own views.”
Hearing him say this, the scene immediately became lively, and many attendees began to express their opinions:
“I think the Great Grandmaster armed forces are not very feasible. First of all, whether the various technological equipment can build this set of armed forces, we don’t even have a Great Grandmaster now, and we can’t evaluate the various data of the Great Grandmaster. We don’t even have the basic personnel to wear the equipment. How can we manufacture the Great Grandmaster armed forces on this basis?”
“If the Great Grandmaster armed forces project is established, it will definitely take a lot of money from research and development to actual application, which may squeeze the resources of other research projects, and then drag down the progress of other projects.
And the Great Grandmaster armed forces need at least a Great Grandmaster to equip them, not to mention that we don’t have a Great Grandmaster now, even if Great Grandmasters appear in batches in the future, the number is still too small for the entire Martial Dao system.
On the contrary, the research on various Spiritual Plants and medicines, once breakthroughs are achieved, will benefit all the people of Da Qian, and at the very least, it can also benefit all Martial Cultivators. The scope of this benefit is much greater than that of a single Great Grandmaster group!”
“My opinion is that even if this Great Grandmaster armed forces is manufactured, it is actually not of much use, because under the modern technological system, there are too many weapons that are more powerful than the Great Grandmaster, and even those that are comparable to the Land Immortal are not in the minority. There is no need to go to such lengths to specifically manufacture the Great Grandmaster armed forces.”
“Instead of investing heavily in researching this Great Grandmaster armed forces and then letting a hundred Great Grandmasters wear it to deal with the Land Immortal, why not use fighter jets and warships to directly launch missiles to besiege the Land Immortal? What role can the Great Grandmaster play here? A moving target that absorbs the Land Immortal’s firepower?”
“I think it is still very necessary to manufacture the Great Grandmaster armed forces. In my opinion, the Great Grandmaster is an unprecedented intelligent small mobile firepower platform. In the past, this function was replaced by robots and robot dogs, but the performance of robots and robot dogs is not very good, because although they can move, their flexibility is ultimately not as good as humans, and their load is also very low, and they cannot bear any heavy equipment. The only advantage is probably to reduce the casualties of our own personnel.
But when it comes to the Great Grandmaster, it’s different. The Great Grandmaster’s own strength is extremely strong. According to current estimates, even bullets can be easily avoided. In addition, the speed is extremely fast, and the maneuverability is also strong. If they are equipped with the heavy firepower they lack, and further strengthen their defense, they are a series of humanoid tanks, going wherever they go and hitting wherever they go.
Unlike warships, which can only stay at sea, and unlike fighter jets, which cannot pass through forests and mountains, the applicable occasions for Great Grandmasters are much wider than them.”
“I also agree with the construction of the Great Grandmaster armed forces. Although the existing weapons and equipment can deal with the Four-Armed Monster, the opponent’s moving speed is really too fast. Once they want to escape, we may not be able to catch up. If there are Great Grandmasters equipped with armed forces, maybe they can delay the opponent’s escape at a critical moment, or even kill them on the spot. They are still very necessary as a supplement to the main battlefield.”
“In fact, even if there is no Four-Armed Monster to deal with, I still strongly agree with the construction of the Great Grandmaster armed forces.
With the gradual promotion of Martial Dao cultivation, many Land Immortals may be born in the future, and because of the population base, a considerable part of these Land Immortals will be in the private sector.
With their physical fitness far exceeding ordinary people and their firepower far exceeding ordinary weapons, they may unconsciously despise the law and despise the rules. If they can control it, that’s fine. If one day a Land Immortal suddenly goes crazy and kills in the city, we can’t send fighter jets to bomb it.
The other party’s speed is so fast that even if you send fighter jets, you may not be able to catch up.
And if the army can’t mobilize the official Land Immortals in time, the large number of Great Grandmasters will become the best choice. Relying on the Great Grandmaster armed forces, even if they can’t defeat the Land Immortal, they can entangle them and avoid causing a larger scale of personal injury.
We are shouldering the responsibility of protecting the people, and it is very necessary to have the military deterrence to deal with the Land Immortal.”
“That’s right, not to mention the domestic ones, if foreign countries send Land Immortals to our country and kill them in the bustling city, we must have the ability to respond in time, otherwise, even if we eliminate him afterwards, the losses in all aspects cannot be recovered.”
“In addition to the points mentioned by the previous few, I have another point to add, that is, the future exploration of the Island and even the Floating Continent, dispatching Great Grandmasters after wearing the equipment, will definitely greatly speed up our exploration progress.
Once it really comes to the time when the Floating Continent can be entered, all countries will frantically take action.
But the number of Land Immortals must be extremely small, but the Great Grandmasters are quite considerable.
If we have personal armed forces that can greatly improve the Martial force of the Great Grandmasters, then other countries may only deploy a few Land Immortals, and we can deploy tens of thousands of Great Grandmasters equipped with armed forces on the basis of deploying a few Land Immortals.
Assuming that a hundred Great Grandmaster armed forces are equivalent to a Land Immortal, then we are equivalent to deploying hundreds of Land Immortals at one time, and the exploration speed of the Floating Continent will definitely far exceed other countries, and even be comparable to their total.”
“Other countries may also develop Great Grandmaster armed forces in the future. We can not have them, but we must have what others have!”
…
After the fierce debate on the scene, the project of 【Great Grandmaster Armed Forces】 was finally determined.
Then, regarding the preliminary design of the project, Liu Wang directly looked at Grandmaster Xu Wei, who was sitting in the corner, and asked:
“Little Xu, you are the first Grandmaster in the country now. If nothing unexpected happens in the future, you will definitely be the first to be promoted to Great Grandmaster. Now everyone is preparing to research the Great Grandmaster armed forces. As the Martial Cultivator closest to the Great Grandmaster, what do you think?”
Xu Wei immediately sat up straight when he heard this, and slowly replied:
“If this set of equipment is to allow the Great Grandmaster to deal with the Land Immortal, to be honest, I can’t imagine it, because the more I cultivate, the more I can feel the horror of the Land Immortal. As a Great Grandmaster alone, even standing still beside the other party may be a kind of luxury.
But if it’s just to deal with the Four-Armed Monster on the island, maybe there is a little possibility. After all, the monster has completely gone crazy, and it does not have all the powers of the Land Immortal. In a certain sense, it is not a real Land Immortal, then we have the possibility of dealing with him with equipment.
Under this premise, what I want to say is that it doesn’t matter if the equipment’s maneuverability is a little bit worse. Anyway, even if there is a small engine, the Great Grandmaster’s reaction speed is still far behind the Land Immortal. In actual combat, it is likely to be beaten all the time, so the equipment’s defense must be strong, as strong as possible.
On this basis, the firepower must be fierce, as fierce as possible. It is best to equip a small nuclear warhead on your body, even if you can’t defeat the other party in the end, at least you can take them away in one wave.
According to my personal guess, when I advance to the Great Grandmaster, the power is equivalent to a nuclear warhead of 5 million tons of TNT, and I should be able to fight the enemy while carrying it.”
Hearing Xu Wei’s speech, the entire conference room was stagnant for a while.
Then, the people who reacted quickly replied:
“Not to that extent, not to that extent.”
“Really not to that extent.”
“We are to defeat the enemy, not to perish together.”
“Yes, if we can’t win, we can run, there’s no need to go to this extent.”
“Let’s think about how to increase the Great Grandmaster’s survival ability, for example, you can make an emergency ejection at the moment of life and death. Anyway, the Great Grandmaster’s skin is thick and the flesh is thick, and it doesn’t matter if you bounce a little further and higher.”
…
Next, the people didn’t ask Xu Wei any more questions.
The scene was being discussed, and the phone in the corner suddenly rang.
After Liu Wang answered the phone, he listened in silence for a while, and finally said:
“We don’t plan to provide Auction Items, no, not just the Swift Running Orchid, we don’t plan to provide any resources we get from the Island. To be more precise, compared to the insignificant Money, those resources are not enough for us to use. You don’t have to persuade me anymore, this is the final decision.”
The Swift Running Orchid is the Spiritual Plant that Da Qian and Lighthouse Country fought for not long ago. Because they can drag their roots to run by themselves, they are very fast, and they look like orchids, so they are temporarily named Swift Running Orchid.
Afterwards, a total of nine Swift Running Orchids were discovered. According to the allocation principle, on the basis of abandoning many other Spiritual Items and interests, Da Qian finally got three, Lighthouse Country got one, and the remaining five were shared by other countries. Da Qian privately traded for another one, which is equivalent to Da Qian holding four.
Although the outside world has determined that the Swift Running Orchid is a Spiritual Plant, they don’t know what its effect is, so they have some doubts about its value. There are many similar unfamiliar Spiritual Plants found in this exploration, and the attitudes of various countries towards these Spiritual Plants are also different. Some are desperately vying for a certain type, and some are desperately exchanging for other interests.
And the reason why Da Qian has been staring at the Swift Running Orchid is purely because Xu Wei noticed the stimulation of this Spiritual Plant to the Qi and Blood in his body when he picked the Swift Running Orchid. If this thing is used to make medicine, it is very likely to greatly enhance the Martial Cultivator’s Qi and Blood, which is a rare Precious Medicine.
Because there is only Xu Wei, the Grandmaster, on the scene, and he has also cultivated the 《Spirit-Bright Perception True Understanding》 to the fourth level, so this information is only known to him.
After confirming this information, Da Qian gave up many resources that should have been allocated to them with amazing courage, except for certain key resources that were difficult to give up, just to be able to exchange for more Swift Running Orchids.
And the president of the Joint Auction who called just now tried to persuade them to take out a Swift Running Orchid as an Auction Item for auction. The other party even guaranteed to be the finale.
Liu Wang decisively chose to refuse.
Just kidding, he only dislikes that he doesn’t have enough Swift Running Orchids, how could he take them out for auction?
As soon as he sent away the president of the Joint Auction, Little Li hurried over and said:
“Leader, the auction house just sent a few invitations, inviting our people to attend the auction. What do you think?”
“Then attend!”
Liu Wang replied decisively:
“We don’t sell things, but we can buy things at the auction. Many Small countries are willing to take out valuable resources in exchange for Money. We just take this opportunity to get them!”
Little Li nodded, and then remembered something, and said to Xu Wei:
“Grandmaster Xu, there is also an invitation for you here, hoping to invite you to attend the auction.”
“For me?”
Xu Wei was suddenly a little surprised.
Little Li explained with a smile:
“I heard that the auction this time not only invited government officials and top Rich man, but also invited many Martial Cultivators. Innate is the entry-level bottom line, and then there will be a screening. As a Grandmaster, you are naturally among their invitations.”
“They even invited many Innate?” Xu Wei’s eyes flashed, “Then I’ll go and take a look.”
“Together then?”
“Together!”
…
Joint Camp, Lighthouse Country’s base.
“Invite me to attend the auction?”
Lighthouse Country’s Innate William, with a look of disbelief:
“You think I have Money just because I became Innate?”
“I’m very sorry, I haven’t even finished paying off my student loans, I’ve disappointed you.”
The staff member said with a smile:
“Even if you don’t have Money, you can go to the scene to observe. We don’t force you to bid.”
“And this time, many Innate will participate in the auction, and it can be said that the world’s Martial Dao Geniuses are gathered together.”
William said lazily:
“Which Innate are there? Tell me about it.”
“I don’t know about the others for the time being, but Da Qian’s Grandmaster Xu has already agreed.”
“What did you say? Xu Wei agreed?!?”
William’s eyes suddenly burst with piercing light.
The staff member was directly forced back a few steps by the imposing manner, and quickly replied:
“He did agree.”
“Then I’ll go too!”
…
Alfonso’s camp.
The Golden-haired Captain, who was preparing to go to Da Qian to fulfill his promise, looked at the suddenly appearing invitation, with a look of bewilderment:
“Invite me to attend the auction?”
“Well, let it be a rest before departure.”
“It just so happens that after the auction is over, I can fly to Da Qian with the plane.”
…
Lighthouse, California, a luxurious Villa.
The Son of Nature, who had just hung up the phone, revealed a look of interest in his eyes:
“The world’s Martial Dao Geniuses are gathered together?”
“This is a rare event, I must not miss it!”
With that, he immediately instructed his assistant to book a plane ticket.
…
Africa, in a certain Tribe.
The eighteen-year-old youth who had just finished fighting a Lion, casually threw the Lion aside and was about to go back to his room to cultivate.
The Old Chief, who had just taken the Silver-Winged Wasp Honey not long ago, reached out and beckoned him:
“Mufasa, the auction will be held soon, and they invited you to go this time, will you go?”
The Old Chief handed him the invitation.
After Mufasa flipped through it, he shook his head:
“I just want to cultivate, I’m not interested in the auction.”
“I heard that there will be many top Innate from all over the world coming this time, don’t you want to meet them?”
“What’s so good about seeing them?” Mufasa said calmly: “I’m about to break through to Grandmaster.”
“That’s a coincidence, there is also a Grandmaster going this time.”
“What? Someone became a Grandmaster? Who is it?”
Mufasa’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
The Old Chief smiled with interest:
“He is the first Innate born in Da Qian after the spread of Martial Arts, Xu Wei.”
“I know his name.”
Mufasa clenched the invitation, and a strong fighting spirit suddenly rose on his face:
“I haven’t had the chance to meet him, and now it’s time to meet this pioneer!”
…
And all over the world, with the invitations to the auction being continuously issued, one after another top Innate, one after another Martial Dao Geniuses, began to set off and head to that place where the wind and clouds gathered.
ps: The end of the month, ask for a Monthly Ticket
