260: Uprising

Next, it entered a period of smooth and stable development.

Ran Quan’s side, the cooperation with Lin Ze had officially entered the right track.

He had already provided Lin Ze with over 10,000 sets of the latest protective suits, as well as the newly researched highly lethal “Energy High-Frequency Vibration Blade – Type I,” a special energy weapon specifically manufactured by combining the evolution crystals from Lin Ze’s world.

Its lethality was immense, and it was extremely sharp.

The latest protective suits were like paper in front of it.

The energy source of this “cold weapon” was evolution crystals; embedding one white evolution crystal could only sustain ten minutes of use time.

Although the duration was not long, it was plug-and-play, easy to insert and remove, and convenient to replace.

As for the consumption… after all, great power also meant great consumption, which was understandable.

Moreover, this was the lowest-grade white evolution crystal, but if a higher-grade green evolution crystal was used, it could last for three hours.

This was also a technological breakthrough in Saida World.

And the research into this was specifically to serve Lin Ze’s world.

Lin Ze also began selling protective suits and the Energy High-Frequency Vibration Blade – Type I.

One month passed on Lin Ze’s side, while more than half a month passed on Ran Quan’s side.

Both Ran Quan and Lin Ze gained a large number of source points.

Lin Ze’s source points surged these days, from over 200 million to over 400 million.

Ran Quan, on the other hand, increased his source points from over 30 million to over 130 million, and then upgraded himself:

[Subcutaneous Armor level 5] → [Subcutaneous Armor (source points)]

[Reflex Nerve Regulator level 5] → [Reflex Nerve Regulator (source points)]

[Mantis Blades level 5] → [Mantis Blades (source points)]

[Full Resistance level 5] → [Full Resistance (source points)]

[Muscle Enhancement level 5] → [Muscle Enhancement (source points)]

[auxiliary heart level 3] → [auxiliary heart level 4] (upgrade requires 100 million source points)

[Foot Jet Device level 4] → [Foot Jet Device level 5] (upgrade requires 100 million source points)

A total of 70 million source points were spent.

Suddenly, Ran Quan’s source points dropped to over 60 million.

It wouldn't be long before Ran Quan estimated he could break 100 million source points again, allowing for another ability upgrade.

Other people also had some minor improvements, which will not be elaborated on here.

… … … …

Three days passed in the source time.

(To differentiate, Tang Ziheng’s time is defined as the source time, which is the most “high-grade” existence of time. His one day is the most “true” day. An absolute day.)

Some time had passed in the respective worlds of the workers, some for more than ten days, with the longest being a month.

The higher the level of the world, the closer its flow rate was to the source time.

Some of the settings are a bit complex, so I won't elaborate too much; you just need to know that such a setting exists, and I personally feel it doesn't affect the reading.

Over three months passed in Zhu Wenyan’s world.

The “technology” purchased from Ran Quan had been basically popularized nationwide, and it also brought a series of chain reactions.

The national power of the Great Yong Dynasty was flourishing!

It ushered in a significant leapfrog growth.

The military’s weaponry alone underwent a major update!

Steel weapons and armor!

Upgrades to bows, crossbows, and so on!

With these armaments, the already brave and fierce army of the Great Yong Dynasty saw its combat power increase by leaps and bounds.

For a time, some small-scale wars, as well as horse bandits, robbers, and mountain bandits, were all subjected to a cleansing, along with military training.

The powerful army almost crushed these small-scale conflicts.

The Great Yong Dynasty declared its might to the whole world!

And this also greatly boosted the “morale” of the Great Yong Dynasty; the citizens’ “love” and “pride” for the nation reached a new level.

This also brought Zhu Wenyan a lot of source points, and Zhu Wenyan continued to cooperate further with Ran Quan.

Zhu Wenyan currently had nearly 400,000 source points, so he made a “purchase” from Ran Quan.

100 Gene Potion A, 50 Gene Potion B, and 30 Gene Potion C.

A total of 400,000 source points were spent.

The remaining tens of thousands of source points were exchanged for 3,000 tons of steelmaking raw materials.

Then Ran Quan’s side included several detection instruments as a gift, which were for “rare minerals” or “metals” that were relatively scarce in Ran Quan’s world, to see if Zhu Wenyan’s world had them.

If found, Ran Quan’s world could conduct “trade exchange.”

This prompted Zhu Wenyan to immediately dispatch people to take these instruments and conduct 24-hour rotating shifts for detection across the entire country.

At the end of the second trade, Zhu Wenyan immediately used Gene Potion B, and would use Type C after a while.

He gained a lot of source points this time, and Zhu Wenyan believed that in less than two years, he would be able to exchange for the Basic Cultivation Method Version 1.

Then, he would test it out, and if their world could cultivate, then it would start with military generals, gradually promote it throughout the army, and then to the entire nation, achieving a state where everyone was like a dragon!

By then, with the people becoming stronger, productivity would naturally soar, especially in terms of physical labor.

The chain reaction it brought would be enormous, and under their imperial rule, there was no worry of things like chivalrous individuals violating prohibitions, as the strongest entity was the nation.

All government officials and constables would be cultivators; would you dare to cause trouble? And others would be the same.

Therefore, for society as a whole, there wouldn't be much major change.

… … … …

Norman Ya World.

Clarissa and her “disciple” Ellie were strolling on the street.

Suddenly, a squad of soldiers approached quickly.

“Honored One! Queen Alice requests your presence at the palace!” the captain respectfully said to Clarissa.

Although Clarissa was a “One-Worded Equal Rank King,” she was even more so a “Pioneer Honored One,” and everyone’s address gradually changed to: “Honored One,” this sole title!

“Hmm? Is something the matter? Why didn’t you use a magic communication stone to call me?” Clarissa looked at the captain with some confusion and asked.

“This… I wouldn’t know, subordinate.” The captain was also just following orders, and when Clarissa asked this, he was a bit embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer.

“It’s fine, you all go about your business.” Clarissa certainly wouldn’t make things difficult for them, so she casually waved her hand, and the soldiers quickly saluted and turned to leave.

“Let’s go, this street can’t be explored anymore,” Clarissa said to Ellie.

“I wonder what’s going on~ I hope it’s something interesting! I’m so bored, Sister Clarissa,” Ellie said, stretching and walking beside Clarissa.

Through their time together, Ellie became increasingly comfortable and at ease, their relationship being a mix of teacher-friend, mother-sister, combined with admiration and worship, making Ellie’s feelings for Clarissa extremely complex.

Clarissa took Ellie to the palace.

As they passed through the checkpoints, the guards let them through directly while also saluting and greeting Clarissa.

They arrived at the main hall of the palace without any hindrance.

Upon entering, Clarissa saw Alice sitting on the throne, surrounded by some important ministers, chatting with several guests seated below.

“Clarissa, you’re here!” Alice saw Clarissa as she entered, stood up in surprise, quickly descended from the throne, and personally “led the way” for Clarissa.

As Clarissa walked, she glanced at the guests.

A look of surprise appeared on her face, because these guests had emerald green hair, pointed ears, fair and handsome faces, slender figures, and their attire was mostly green and white.

Their entire being exuded a natural, fresh aura.

Elves? Why would they visit the Grosster Empire?

The Elf basically stayed in the Elf Forest, and the Elf Kingdom was self-sufficient, content with its small plot of land.

And the area was not small, it was very large.

Under the thousands of years of management by the Elf, the Elf Forest had become a place full of natural energy.

Elves fighting on their home ground could at least multiply their strength several times over.

Coupled with their neutral alignment, lack of ambition, and disinterest in worldly affairs, humans generally wouldn’t provoke or invade the Elf.

Normally, the probability of seeing an Elf was pitifully small.

However, today, several Elves suddenly appeared, and judging by their demeanor, they were clearly not ordinary Elves.
