Looking at the system's description, the weight of the skin was only 300 kilograms. However, Luo Yuan felt that it was much more than that.
When he moved the skin earlier, Luo Yuan felt that it was at least 10 tons. The system would never make such a low-level mistake. The remaining 9.7 tons must be the power of the space anchor.
The power was like an awl that was firmly nailed to the space. If the power was slightly weaker, it would never be able to move. To be honest, even though Luo Yuan had a good understanding of space, it was his first time seeing such an ability.
Luo Yuan was delighted as the ability was quite useful. As long as he wore the equipment made of this material, it would be equivalent to increasing his weight. It would greatly reduce the impact of being thrown away during a battle.
Before the apocalypse, humans were considered as small to medium-sized creatures. Other than a few species, there were not many creatures that were larger than humans on land. However, after the apocalypse, humans could only be considered as small creatures. Mutated beasts of a slightly higher level could completely crush humans in terms of size.
Just like the interstellar creature he had encountered earlier, before Luo Yuan could even get close to its body, he was easily repelled by the defensive force field on the surface of its body like a fly. Humans were too light and it did not matter how strong he was.
Similarly, this ability to anchor space during battle also allowed him to unleash his strength to the fullest, and he would no longer feel powerless.
Luo Yuan's current strength was not considered weak. With his current weight, he was able to unleash such a shocking amount of strength. It had already broken the biological understanding of humans. However, in a battle, it did not mean that one could unleash the same amount of strength as one had. According to the Third Law of the Ox, the effect of force was mutual. The amount of strength that one exerted would be the same amount of force that one would have to withstand. If one were to stand on the ground, the force would be transferred to the ground.
When one's strength was low, the impact would not be significant as the ground would be able to withstand it. However, when Luo Yuan attacked with all his strength, the kinetic energy produced was equivalent to 0.2 kilograms of TNT. It might seem insignificant but a normal cruise missile with a warhead would only have 0.1 kilograms of TNT. One could imagine the terrifying force that Luo Yuan had to withstand when he attacked.
An ordinary ground, even if it was paved with steel plates, would not be able to withstand such an impact.
In fact, standing on the ground was not that bad. Luo Yuan could control his body subtly and perfectly divert the force into the ground. Although there would be a big hole in the ground, he could still divert the force.
If he was in the air, it would be a total disaster. If he punched, his body would be thrown out of the sky like a meteor and he would not be able to exert his strength.
Of course, the material was not without its flaws. For example, its space anchoring force was too strong. If he were to wear equipment made of this material, his Will would be completely useless.
Although his willpower seemed to be extremely fast, the driving force was not strong. With his 19 points of willpower, he could only move about 300 kilograms. The reason why he could move so fast was because the Demonic Horseman's mane reduced the air resistance.
However, this could be resolved through Will Refinement. Just like his Zanbato, he could easily control the release and deactivation of the Space Slicing ability, but it would take some time.
...
He forcefully removed the Will imprint on the skin and did not stay any longer. He picked up the skin and flew towards Earth in a space-time bubble.
Fortunately, the space anchoring ability of the skin did not affect his space-time bubble. After all, the space-time bubble was the movement of the entire space bubble and the space anchoring of the skin was located inside it.
About an hour later, Luo Yuan returned to Hope City from the moon.
Today, Hope City was bustling with activity. Countless workers worked day and night. There were scenes of construction everywhere. Heavy trucks flowed on the streets like a never-ending dragon. In just a few days, the ruins of Hope City had been cleared and factories had begun to be built.
Some of the factories were even under construction at the same time.
Every time Luo Yuan passed by, he would be shocked. This was the struggle of humans to survive in this cruel world.
Before he entered the house, Luo Yuan heard strangers talking inside.
He opened the door doubtfully and walked into the living room. Everyone stood up immediately. Huang Jiahui and the rest were surprised to see Luo Yuan carrying something black on his back.
The other two were in awe of him.
Looking at the man and the woman, they were obviously government workers. Luo Yuan thought for a while and then put the huge piece of skin in the corner. As the skin entered the room, an oppressive feeling spread quickly.
Although the spiritual imprint on the surface had been dispelled, the aura could not be completely dissipated. This kind of terrifying pressure from an interstellar lifeform, even if it was just a trace, was enough to make everyone feel as if a boulder was pressing on their hearts, making them feel suffocated.
Fortunately, Luo Yuan's voice broke the dream-like pressure, "You two are?"
The few of them immediately came back to their senses. They carefully looked at the mysterious material that was floating in the air and hid the shock in their hearts.
"Hello, Minister Luo. Let me introduce you. This is the Deputy Mayor of Hope City, Bi Jianping. I am the office director of the municipal government, Ni Xue!" A young woman who looked like she was in her thirties or forties introduced them. She looked nervous as if Luo Yuan was a man-eating monster.
"Luo Yuan, the two city leaders have been waiting for you for a long time. You guys talk, I'll go check the kitchen." Huang Jiahui smiled and stood up. She pulled Wang Shishi who seemed like she wanted to continue sitting and quickly left the living room with Zhao Yali.
Only the mutated woman was still squatting next to Luo Yuan. She looked around in confusion but no one cared.
Luo Yuan nodded at Huang Jiahui and looked at both of them. He shook their hands and said with a smile, "Hello! Hello! May I know why both of you are looking for me despite your busy schedule? "
He knew that Hope City had been busy recently. He heard from Wang Xiaguang that the municipal government had been working day and night. Even when they took a break, they only took a nap.
"Minister Luo, you're too kind. We're here on behalf of Hope City to thank you, Minister Luo." Mayor Bi carefully looked at Luo Yuan and smiled awkwardly. From the analysis report, he knew that Luo Yuan was easier to talk to than the office director. Although he was still a little scared, he could still maintain his composure.
"It's all for the Reconstruction Area. You don't have to thank me. I think no one would stand by and do nothing." Luo Yuan said with a smile.
Luo Yuan could not help but frown as he looked at the stiff expressions of the two leaders of Hope City. He could imagine how uneasy they were feeling right now.
"Minister Luo, that's because of your high awareness. Hope City can't turn a blind eye to it. Before I left, the mayor specifically told me to thank Minister Luo for his great contribution to Hope City. If you have any difficulties in life, Hope City will try its best to help you. If it wasn't for the fact that Hope City is busy with the reconstruction work, he would have come personally. "Mayor Bi continued.
"I appreciate Hope City's kindness, but I really don't need it. Do I look like I'm in trouble?" Luo Yuan immediately understood what the mayor meant and rejected.
Mayor Bi thought to himself. Not only was it not difficult, but it was also luxurious according to the current standards. Looking at the decorations, the complete set of electrical appliances, and even the living room was bigger than his house. He had heard about the special treatment from the Firearms Bureau, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still shocked.
However, his mission had to be completed. The incident this time was too big, almost piercing the sky. Not only was Hope City discussing it, but New Capital City was also in a mess. As far as he knew, the General Staff Department had even set up an intelligence department just for this person.
Even this mission was not decided by Hope City, but by the will of the higher-ups.
Based on his political awareness, he vaguely understood that there was no way for evolved humans to advance further when they had reached this level. Any higher would be the real leader of the country, which was a taboo in itself. However, the higher-ups could not turn a blind eye to what had happened this time. If they really made him feel bad or even hated him, there would be drastic changes in the entire Reconstruction Area.
No one dared to take the risk. It could be said that both sides feared each other!
Since he could not be promoted, he could only get material rewards. Moreover, the higher-ups could not do it personally, so he could only let Hope City do it on his behalf to minimize the impact of this incident. It could be said that this was a political mission. Even if they had to nitpick, they had to find out his difficulties.
"Minister Luo, you have a big family and your house is a little small. You don't even have any support staff. This is really a dereliction of duty by Hope City!" Mayor Bi said while pinching his nose.
...
Although Luo Yuan had rejected many times, he could not stand the mayor's firm attitude and had to accept it.
He had originally planned to go to the wild to see if the Wisdom Tree had been upgraded, but he was delayed by this incident.
The gift from Hope City was a villa that covered an area of more than 1,000 square meters. With one look, he knew that the villa had just been built not long ago. In fact, the construction had only started a few days ago. Some parts of the villa looked like it had been built in a hurry.
After the apocalypse, most houses were made of wood. The mutated wood was dense and hard, which was no worse than a cement house. Moreover, it was easy and fast to build. Paint was rarely used, so it did not affect its use at all.
The interior decoration was extremely luxurious even if it was the standard before the apocalypse. The bathing pool was paved with white jade, the floor was made of level six material, and the walls were carved with landscape paintings. There was also a rockery fountain in front of the hall.
Other than the house, there was also a dedicated driver, a medical team, and a support team. There were a total of 18 people in the house, and they could enjoy the treatment of a senior leader.
However, apart from one of the doctors who needed to take care of Chen Jiayi, who was still in a coma, Luo Yuan rejected all of them with a straight face.
This was because almost all of them were women. Not only were they beautiful, most of them had the temperament of a young married woman. Luo Yuan could not understand why the higher-ups thought that he was such a pervert.
