Compared to Han Xing, Fatty, North, South, East, and West, Tang Ling was the least knowledgeable one.
Even though he was still the so-called boss, Tang Ling was not.
Therefore, the thing that caught Han Xing's attention did not catch Tang Ling's attention at all. When Fatty's eyes landed on the item, he cried out in surprise, "Ah! Zhan Long!"
"Zhan Long? Is it really Zhan Long? Are you sure, Fatty? "Han Xing's eyes showed delight, but his tone was still a little uncertain.
Zhan Long! With it, the voyage this time would be a lot safer.
Han Xing never had much confidence in Boss Huang's shipbuilding skills. Based on his understanding of Boss Huang's stingy nature, he would never be able to build a ship.
"Of course, I'm sure. Don't you remember my birth?" Fatty's eyes were filled with arrogance as he looked at Han Xing with disdain. Then, he took out the item from his bag and looked at it over and over again. Then, he said with absolute certainty, "It really is [Zhan Long], but it's only a level 1 [Zhan Long]. It can only absorb 1 HT of energy and can withstand 10 uses."
HT was the unit of energy that a Purple Moon Warrior would officially start using. It represented the strength of a Purple Moon Warrior's punch. After becoming a Purple Moon Warrior, the strength of a punch was no longer limited to pure strength. It also included the energy that could be mobilized and the effect of one's talent ability. All of these were represented by the unit of HT.
A Rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior's standard punch was 0.15 HT. If one could reach 0.25 HT, one would be an excellent Rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior.
A Rank 2 Purple Moon Warrior's standard punch was 0.3 HT. If one could reach 0.5 HT, one would be an excellent Rank 2 Purple Moon Warrior.
As for a Rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior, the standard punch was 1 HT. Based on normal training, a Rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior's talent ability would be initially developed, and the strength of a punch would also change.
Rank 3 was a dividing line. Some Purple Moon Warriors could barely reach 1 HT, but the excellent and genius Purple Moon Warriors could reach 2 HT or even more than 3 HT.
It was the basic knowledge of a Purple Moon Warrior, so when Tang Ling heard the words 1HT, 10HT, and so on, he was already sensitive.
He picked up the item that Han Xing and Fatty called 'Zhan Long' from the bag. To be honest, it was really too inconspicuous. It was about the length of an arm's forearm and about the width of a palm. It looked like a broken knife without a handle. The only thing that stood out was the golden Oriental dragon carved in the right corner.
Tang Ling thought it was a one-handed weapon, so he did not pay much attention to it.
However, he did not expect Han Xing and Fatty to be so excited.
"What is [Zhan Long]? What's the deal with absorbing 1HT energy? "Tang Ling sized up the Zhan Long guild repeatedly. He was never ashamed to ask.
"[Zhan Long] is one of the ten best large scale weapons in this era besides the Fortress Protector Instrument." Fatty was showing off his knowledge again. Indeed, his background had given him a wealth of knowledge. Even Han Xing from Holy Tree City couldn't compare to Fatty in this regard.
"Large-scale weapons? Is it that powerful? "Tang Ling was in disbelief. How could such a small item be a large scale weapon?
"It's made of superalloy and combined with super-advanced technology. Its super-advanced formation patterns are hidden in the golden dragon carving. In short, I don't really understand the theory behind it, but all you need to know is that it can receive energy and can store up to 1HT energy. When it attacks, however much energy it has stored, it will be able to launch an attack that is 1.5 times stronger than its stored energy. "
"It's a one-hit kill, so it's called [Zhan Long]." Fatty was a little excited at the end.
A one-hit kill? Just thinking about it was a cool thing to do.
"I get it now. This is a low-level [Zhan Long] that can fire a full-powered attack from a rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior. Then, it can store energy 10 times and fire 10 times? "Tang Ling was smart, so he had a general idea of how to use [Zhan Long].
"Hmm, that's what Level 1 [Zhan Long] is like. After all, humans haven't fully grasped the power of super technology, so the products they make aren't very stable. Ten times is just a probability. It might be destroyed after eight or nine times, but it might be able to last 11 or 12 times. Who knows? "Fatty shrugged.
"What can I use to inject energy into it?" Tang Ling was poor, so he was concerned about that.
"If you're not in a hurry, you can inject energy with crystals. If you want to refill it instantly, you'll need Universal Energy Stones. "Han Xing stood up and stretched his body.
Since [Zhan Long] was a large scale weapon, it would cost a fortune to use it.
"Universal Source Stones again." Tang Ling pouted. Fortunately, the resources that the factions sent this time also included Universal Source Stones.
They were cut into cubes of about 10 centimeters and placed neatly. Fatty had already counted all the Universal Source Stones and there were only 65 of them.
This was the standard processing method for the Universal Source Stone. Each Universal Source Stone contained about 2HT of energy.
In other words, Tang Ling would have 130HT of energy on this voyage. It might seem like a lot, but the Universal Source Stones were consumed in a lot of ways. Even if he sailed at full speed and activated the formation, he would still need Universal Source Stones.
Still, it should be enough. Tang Ling was short on money, so he had to make do with the 65 Universal Source Stones, but he had to be frugal.
Other than that, there were quite a number of crystals. They were all common crystals and above, and there were two boxes full.
On top of that, the crystals could be replenished as they could be found in mutated beasts.
"Leave Zhan Long to me." Just as Tang Ling was calculating the daily necessities, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
He looked up and saw that Boss Huang had somehow snuck into his room.
"Are you trying to embezzle this? No, this is robbery! "Tang Ling was very displeased. He had made up his mind that he would never let Boss Huang get what he wanted.
"Robbery, my * ss! Zhan Long needs it fixed at the bow of the ship. Otherwise, where would you put it? Do you even know how to use it? I'll work overnight and install it for you. "Boss Huang was speechless. Was there a need to rob a low-level Zhan Long? Was his great image that bad?
"Oh, I know you're a good person, Boss." Tang Ling smiled sincerely.
B * stard! Han Xing and Fatty grumbled at the same time.
Boss Huang accepted Tang Ling's compliment happily. He took the Zhan Long sword and said, "You're awake. The whole of Darkness Port has received the news.
The people of Darkness Port contacted me just now. They're organizing a fleet formation ceremony at dawn. Remember to attend it. After the ceremony, we'll be sailing in one or two days. "
"Tang Ling, you're the champion of the Hell Ledge Challenge, so you have a lot of authority. Have you thought about what you want to pick?" Fatty had also watched the live stream, so he was not completely clueless about what was going on.
"Pick some rich ones and replenish our ship with some supplies. Pick some … pretty ones. What do you think? Sailing is boring. You have to face the vast sea every day … "Han Xing's eyes shone as he grabbed Tang Ling's shoulder.
"You don't care about what she thinks?" Tang Ling glanced at Han Xing.
"Ah, I'm so frustrated." Han Xing fell into extreme frustration.
Tang Ling looked at Han Xing and smiled. He then told Fatty, "I'm too lazy to pick. I'm not used to interacting with strangers. I didn't plan to pick anyone before this. This time, I'll just pick these people. "
The people Tang Ling was referring to were none other than Higan, Han Xing, the Ro siblings, and the Four Brothers of North, South, East, and West. No matter how many people he had, his little boat could not fit all of them.
Tang Ling was troubled by the fact that the three girls would have to squeeze into a single room.
"You can do whatever you want. Remember to attend the ceremony at 10 o 'clock in the morning. Elder Black treats you quite well. Since you're the champion of the Hell Ledge Challenge, you have to go, "Boss Huang reminded Tang Ling, but he was a little worried.
This was because he had already found out which faction the ship with the griffin carved on its bow belonged to.
He could not understand why this faction would suddenly join the sailing this time. Why would they put their young geniuses in danger to fight for resources?
A faction like Fatty Ji Chengxi should have a rich reserve of resources.
Just like Fatty Ji Chengxi's family, the Ji family, they would not have to worry that Fatty would not be able to provide the three items when he became a Purple Moon Warrior.
They might even be able to provide the best items.
However, it was strange. Boss Huang had just received news from the Ji family that Fatty was allowed to join the sailing with Tang Ling.
What were they thinking? Boss Huang sighed in his heart when he saw how calm Fatty was. "Hey, Chengxi, come to my study room."
**
"I'm not going." Fatty was on the verge of tears.
How could his grandfather be so heartless? Even with his big brother, Tang Ling, around, he was just a Purple Moon Warrior-to-be. What if he could not protect him?
Fatty was still clear-headed during crucial moments.
He did not have any ambition. All he wanted was to enjoy his life, marry a gentle wife, and live the rest of his life in peace.
Of course, it would be nice if he could have a genius as his child. Since he did not have the hopes of completing his family, he could just pass it on to the next generation.
Therefore, Fatty believed that the only danger he would have to face in his life was the dream. As long as he acknowledged Tang Ling as his big brother and followed him, this little danger might be solved.
However, was life that unpredictable? Was he betrayed by his grandfather who loved him the most?
"You're not going? I think you don't have to go. You can't fight anyway. The sea is vast and you don't even have a place to run to. "Boss Huang scratched his head. He was also troubled, but what he said was the truth.
If something happened to the only son of Ji Wenji, the strongest third-generation leader of the Ji family, after he followed Tang Ling out to sea, it would be a huge problem for the family.
"Then, can you plead for me?" Fatty looked pitiful as he cupped his fists and looked at Boss Huang.
Boss Huang wanted to say something, but his expression changed and he was stunned on the spot.
"Boss?" Fatty blinked. What's wrong with pleading for him? Does he need money? However, he had been exploited cleanly, and he was still troubled about how to borrow money from Boss Huang. He did not have the ability to walk back to the Ji family.
"Oh, oh, no problem. Do you have a way to contact your family? " Boss Huang's heart was filled with shock and astonishment. He had to think of a way to contact the Ji family at least once.
"I do." Of course, Fatty could contact his family. It was his last resort if he ran into any unsolvable danger out there, but if he wanted to contact his family and ask for money to go home, it would be impossible.
Other than his grandfather, everyone in his family was like a pack of wolves and tigers. They all said in unison that he needed more training.
Training my * ss! I'm already skinny!
"Then contact them." Boss Huang tossed a communication device to Fatty.
Fatty hurriedly took the communication device and keyed in a secret password. The communication device was quickly connected.
Before the other end of the communication device could speak, Fatty cried for his parents, "I want to talk to my grandfather! I want to talk to my grandfather! I don't want to go to sea! I … "
However, before Fatty could finish his sentence, a stern voice came from the communication device and interrupted him.
Boss Huang could not eavesdrop on the conversation, but when he saw Fatty's tears rolling down his face from the scolding, he had a feeling it was not something good.
"Hey, Chengxi, why don't I talk to him? It might work. Can you leave for now? "Boss Huang had a lot to say, so he had to talk to the Ji family first.
Fatty must have lost all hope after the scolding. He wiped his tears and passed the communication device to Boss Huang.
"You stay away for now," Boss Huang told Fatty.
Fatty was a mess, so he helplessly passed the communication device to Boss Huang and walked away in tears.
After Fatty left the room, Boss Huang took the communication device and said, "Hi, I'm Huang Dao."
"General Huang, I've heard a lot about you. On top of that, should I address you as … "A deep, dignified male voice came from the other end of the communication device.
Boss Huang's expression slightly changed. "It's fine. I'm just a small boss now. What general? It has nothing to do with me anymore. "
"Great, Boss Huang. I'm Ji Wenji. My useless son has troubled you for the past few days. "
"It's no trouble at all. Fortunately, he came in time and saved Tang Ling. The Ji family is indeed an inherited family with mysterious powers. I'll thank you on behalf of Tang Ling. "Boss Huang was sincere.
The Ji family did have mysterious powers and unique skills. Legend had it that they also had skills that were similar to prophecy.
Boss Huang did not think it was a coincidence that Fatty had brought vitality replenishing pills with him.
Boss Huang did want to thank the Ji family on behalf of Tang Ling for their kindness.
"It's nothing. After all, my son is indebted to Tang Ling in the Dream Domain. My family has always valued karma. Since he's indebted, I'll repay the debt. " Ji Wenji sounded calm as if giving him three precious vitality replenishing pills was a trivial matter.
"Regardless, I should thank you."
"You're welcome, Boss Huang. Just say what you want to say. I believe you didn't just want to say thank you when you wanted to talk to me. "Ji Wenji seemed to have read Boss Huang's mind.
"First, I want to know if the Ji family really wants Ji Chengxi to go out to sea no matter what happens." No matter what happens, "Boss Huang said solemnly.
"Yes, you don't have to worry, Boss Huang. This is my father's decision and it can't be changed. The Ji family will accept all the consequences. This is my son's life. "Ji Wenji did not show any emotion at all.
Boss Huang sighed. It was tiring to talk to the Ji family. Karma, fate … Were all the ancient inherited families like this? His words were ambiguous and there was a hidden meaning in his words. He looked like he had seen through everything and was devising a strategy.
"Fine. However, I think there's something I must tell you. "Boss Huang took something out from his pocket as he spoke.
It was a page that glowed with a silver light. It was undoubtedly a very high-grade platinum page in the Tinder List.
Boss Huang had spent a lot of effort to collect the List of Seeds, so he would never carry it around with him.
It was because of the appearance of the East, South, West, and North Saints that he had a flash of inspiration. He wanted to use the List of Seeds to test whether the East, South, West, and North Saints were on the List.
The page did respond to the Four Saints, but it was a golden page, so the platinum page did not respond at all, let alone Fatty.
But just now, when Fatty sat in front of him, the page actually reacted? Boss Huang was in disbelief. What was going on? Was there a bug in the List of Seeds? Or was it slow?
Of course, the List of Seeds was very mysterious. What was going on? Only Tang Feng knew.
But in this situation? Boss Huang had to confirm it and inform the Ji family.
"Go ahead." Ji Wenji sounded calm even though Boss Huang's voice on the other end was not.
Boss Huang inhaled deeply and asked, "Very well, Brother Ji, you must know about the List of Seeds, right?"
"I do. It's the thing that the legendary Tang Feng values the most. How could I not know about it because it has stirred up so many bloody storms? "
"Just now, when Ji Chengxi sat in front of me, the List of Seeds reacted. The List of Tinder has reacted, and it's a platinum page. " Boss Huang explained what happened in a single breath. He then added, "I'm very sure that this book didn't react to Ji Chengxi at all, not even the lowest bronze book."
The other end of the communication device went silent.
Boss Huang waited patiently for the result.
However, after waiting for about half a minute, Ji Wenji only said, "Everything has a reason. If there's a reaction, then there's a reaction. It also means that there's a reason why my father decided to send my son out to sea at the last minute. "
"What do you mean?" Boss Huang could no longer stand the Ji family's strange way of talking.
"It's simple. Things have reached a stage where they should develop. Until now, Chengxi has done nothing and is timid, but his life isn't destined to be a peaceful one, so it means he will meet a turning point. I think Tang Ling is the turning point for him … "Ji Wenji then added before Boss Huang could say anything," Don't worry, Boss Huang. The fate of the younger generation isn't something you or I can control. Even if we can add fuel to the fire in their lives, all we can do is push them to the right path.
"Now that I've said it, you don't have to worry too much."
Boss Huang was stunned as he held the communication device. The Ji family seemed to have come to a sudden realization. Everything they said was about fate and peace, but there was nothing useful at all.
Forget it, forget it.
Boss Huang did not want to waste his time, so he said, "Since the List of Seeds can sense it, does the Ji family mind if Ji Chengxi's name is officially engraved on the List?"
"As long as my son doesn't object, the Ji family will follow fate." Ji Wenji returned to his calm and profound self. "If there's nothing else, Boss Huang, we'll talk again when we're free."
"Fine." Boss Huang put down the communicator. He was a little stunned by the Ji family.
This Ji family … Since Fatty was on the platinum list, he would do what he had to do.
Even though he was just a small Boss Huang now, he was still responsible for the List of Seeds, and it had nothing to do with his position.
With that in mind, Boss Huang called Fatty in.
**
After hanging up the communication device, Ji Wenji's calm expression suddenly became heavy.
He put down the communication device in his hand and walked out of his room without a second thought. He went through the big courtyard and pushed the door open. Outside the courtyard was a mountain range shrouded in clouds and mist, and in front of him was a bluestone mountain path with thin clouds and a thick mist.
Ji Wenji sighed and walked up the mountain path towards the peak. He did not seem to be walking fast, but in less than a breath's time, he had covered a few hundred meters.
In less than three minutes, Ji Wenji had arrived at the huge courtyard at the top of the mountain.
When he arrived at the door, the tightly shut door of the courtyard opened silently.
"Wenji, why are you in such a hurry?" In the middle of the courtyard, there was a rocking chair. An old man sat on the rocking chair. His hair was combed into a bun, and he wore a simple plain linen robe. He seemed to have a carefree temperament, but he was slightly thin.
"Father, you know that I'm here for Ji Chengxi." Ji Wenji bowed at the old man.
"Are you still worried?" The old man glanced at Ji Wenji.
"Father's decision has its own meaning, and Wenji dare not question it. Chengxi has always been weak and fallen, so it's a good decision for him to come into the world and get closer to Tang Ling. "Ji Wenji sincerely believed so.
"If that's the case, what questions do you have?" The old man closed his eyes and shook the rocking chair lightly.
"I just got news from Huang Dao that the list of seeds that Tang Feng created has sensed Chengxi. I want to know if Father has broken the seal on Chengxi. "Ji Wenji's face turned heavy when he mentioned the name.
"Yes, I can't seal him forever, can I?" the old man asked.
Ji Wenji furrowed his brows and seemed a little agitated. "But Father, once the seal is broken, Wenji's life force will flow out uncontrollably. T-This …"
"Being able to shine like a shooting star for a moment is better than being mediocre for the rest of your life," the old man said calmly. The old man said indifferently, then added, "Moreover, there's always a way out. The heavens will always leave a glimmer of hope. Do you want to take the risk? Or do you want to seal Chengxi forever like I said? "
