27: Chapter 27 Rift in the Otherworld Battlefield

"An Otherworld Battlefield Rift? You can think of it as a Divine Kingdom without an owner. It's what happens when a high-level deity passes away and releases their Divine Kingdom. When an ownerless Divine Kingdom encounters war and its coordinates are exposed, a rift forms. Creatures from various realms will frantically rush in to plunder it. At that point, the ownerless Divine Kingdom becomes an Otherworld Battlefield, where they fight each other for resources."

Gu Han listened intently.

Before Gu Han could ask another question, Teacher Qin Lin immediately said, "It's still too early for you. Ah! Right, a rift appeared today, so there must be a large batch of otherworld species or materials just brought back from the battlefield on the market right now. You can check Yitao.com."

"Yitao.com?" Gu Han took out his handheld device.

"Yes. The War God Class doesn't have the stable economic sources and output that the Life Class does; they rely mainly on plundering resources during wars and selling them to maintain their Divine Kingdoms. Some War Gods get injured inside, or are in urgent need of funds to buy medicine and equipment, so they will sell their goods at very low prices. You just received your grant, so go try your luck."

"I won't talk to you anymore; I'm in a rush to head into the rift to see if there's anything good to scavenge." Teacher Qin Lin closed her eyes, and her consciousness sank directly into her Divine Kingdom.

The room fell silent once again.

Gu Han leaned against the headboard and opened the Yitao.com app on his handheld device.

The system automatically located him in Jiangcheng City.

As soon as he entered the homepage, the screen was flooded with colorful product recommendations.

Gu Han glanced at them casually, and his breath hitched for a moment.

The bolded, trending product pinned to the top of the homepage was actually a [Pure-Blooded Flame Dragon Larva]!

In the product display image, a miniature dragon covered in dark red flames was sleeping on volcanic rock, and the breath exhaled from its nostrils was burning the surrounding space until it distorted and warped.

Gu Han hurriedly clicked on it to see the price.

A massive red prompt box popped up in the center of the screen.

[Your account assets do not meet the authorization level to view the base price of this product. Please strive to increase your wealth level!]

Gu Han twitched the corner of his mouth.

He didn't even have the qualification to look at the price.

He exited the homepage, stopped looking at those top-tier divine items that required asset verification, and honestly clicked on the filter function.

Maximum price set: two million credit points.

The page refreshed, and the products instantly became much more down-to-earth.

Gu Han's goal was clear; he typed "Zerg" into the search bar.

Thousands of pieces of information popped up in the list.

[Bird-Eating Bug], [Carrion Beetle], [Venomous Centipede]...

Gu Han flipped through several pages, his gaze suddenly stopping on an extremely obscure product.

[Stealth Ant].

The product details were written very clearly: extremely small body size, can change its body color according to the surrounding environment to achieve a near-perfect optical stealth effect. Usually used as ornamental pets or decomposers in the Divine Kingdoms of the rich.

Selling price: ten credit points each. A nest for one thousand credit points.

The price was very delightful.

He immediately typed another name into the search bar.

[Black Armored Ant]

After comparing, the lowest price: three thousand credit points per nest.

Gu Han directly bought a nest of Stealth Ants and a nest of Black Armored Ants.

To establish an intelligent Insectoid civilization, he must have the genes of intelligent creatures; he currently already had Orcs.

Gu Han searched for Sapiens and Elves.

The prices were staggering. A healthy, strong, ordinary adult Sapiens had a base price of five hundred thousand. Elves with even a little bit of magical talent cost even more, at six hundred thousand.

The money he had on hand was simply not enough.

Gu Han's mind turned, and he added a few keywords to the search bar: "Disabled," "Seriously Injured," "Flawed," "Special Offer."

The page reloaded, and a few lonely products popped up.

[Disabled Male Sapiens].

The seller's description was very blunt: double leg amputation, wounds have healed, completely lost the ability to work. Cannot engage in Divine Kingdom construction, keeping him is a waste of food, selling at a low price.

Selling price: one hundred thousand credit points.

Buy!

Gu Han clicked to pay without hesitation.

Immediately after, he set his eyes on another one.

[Disabled Male Elf].

Seller's description: right eye blinded, left hand severed at the root. Selling cheap.

Selling price: two hundred thousand credit points.

Buy!

Gu Han spent three hundred thousand in one go without feeling any heartache; he even felt like he made a small profit.

These disabilities were not important to Gu Han at all. He bought these two people back solely to use them as intelligent species.

Under the absolute rule of "Forced Breeding," it didn't matter if you had broken legs or blind eyes; as long as you could still be used, you had value.

The account balance still had one million six hundred ninety-six thousand credit points remaining.

Gu Han didn't stop there.

Gu Han clicked on the resource category and spent one million to buy ten [Low-Level Spirit Mineral Seeds].

If you bury this thing underground, as long as there is enough spiritual energy to nourish it, it can slowly grow into a spirit stone ore vein. The more abundant the spiritual energy, the faster it grows, laying the foundation for the future Spiritual Energy Era.

With the remaining six hundred thousand-plus, Gu Han swept up several types of spiritual plants that could produce large amounts of spiritual energy but grew slowly.

As long as he cross-bred these spiritual plants with fast-growing plants, he should be able to fill the Divine Kingdom with them very quickly. The spiritual energy produced would then nourish the mineral seeds, maxing out the spiritual energy levels.

The two million targeted grant was completely gone, wiped out to zero.

A transaction successful prompt popped up on the handheld device.

Gu Han threw the handheld device aside and took a deep breath.

The next second, the void teleportation array connected to his Divine Kingdom lit up deep in his consciousness.

The goods had arrived.

Gu Han immediately closed his eyes, his consciousness sank, and he entered the Divine Kingdom directly.

The ten Spirit Mineral Seeds that had just been teleported in were all dispersed and sunk deep underground by Gu Han, who immediately set to work on the cross-Reproduction and cultivation of the spiritual plants.

In an open space in the center of the Divine Kingdom, the newly purchased disabled male Sapiens and disabled male Elf were lying in the grass.

The Sapiens with the severed leg was still unconscious.

And the Elf with the blinded eye was terrified, using his only remaining hand to prop himself up on the ground and struggling to scoot backward.

Gu Han did not delay and immediately used Forced Breeding.

With a shift of his will, he directly brought together the terrified disabled male Elf below and the massive Black Armored Ant.

Then, he paired the Sapiens and the Stealth Ant together.

He also called over the Orc Dalton from the distance.

White light flashed repeatedly on the grass; Gu Han had matched the three individuals and the two types of ants into eight sets of experimental subjects.

He dispersed the eight pregnant female ants in eight directions across the Divine Kingdom, distributing worker ants and soldier ants equally among them, and separated them from the main continent with bodies of water.

The Stealth Ants were small, so it didn't have much of an impact, but the Black Armored Ants were particularly large and could easily cause quite a bit of impact on the Divine Kingdom.

To avoid a tragedy like the one with Jana happening again, after the Reproduction was finished, Gu Han properly settled the Sapiens and the Elf in the Six-Winged Chicken Reproduction area.
