Before they'd joined Jiumingtang, they'd already been notorious arms dealers. The reason they'd joined Lu Sheng was because they'd practically given most of their assets to Lu Sheng for free.
Huh?
Red Thorn and the others in the observation room were completely stupefied.
Lu Sheng quickly absorbed the watermelon-sized scale stone in front of him. It took him a full ten minutes to completely absorb it.
"This is … a scale stone?" Lu Sheng immediately recognized the distinctive characteristics of this rare ore.
He could sense that the transformation of his blood had strengthened his entire body to varying degrees. Furthermore, the strengthening was still accelerating.
At this moment, the first scale stone was completely devoid of Mental Energy.
His originally short hair had grown past his ears, and his slightly closed eyes could be faintly seen amidst the black strands of hair.
"I need this."
"Is there more?" This amount wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. Lu Sheng asked decisively.
"I understand. Do as you wish. " The officer was straightforward. In the examination room, they could clearly detect that the scale stones Lu Sheng had touched hadn't undergone any additional changes. Even their outer appearance hadn't changed.
"It's a pity that I don't have enough Mental Energy." Lu Sheng looked at the remaining Mental Energy in Deep Blue's interface.
Only the scale stones contained Mental Energy.
Lu Sheng waited for a while, and soon a large pile of things fell from the elevator platform beneath his feet.
Theoretically, when the three blood dots turned completely black, the Fourth Anima's transformation would be complete.
These scale stones gave him more than 20,000 Mental Energy.
This was the first time they'd seen someone use their body to block bullets. It wasn't that they hadn't seen people block bullets before, but they'd been equipped with all sorts of technological means. It was technology against technology.
"Yes!" Red Thorn quivered, and hurriedly responded.
It wouldn't be a problem to get some, but to snatch them … that was a completely different matter.
Various weapons were presented to him like flowing water. Then, Lu Sheng used all of them on himself. It took him more than an hour, and the results were satisfactory.
Ansha and a small bespectacled man were together.
After all, Venaga-class warships were powerful warships that could destroy asteroids with a single shot. Weapons that could pose a threat to him were naturally top-notch items.
His tone was calm. However, Zheng Huan, who was standing behind him, immediately felt that something was amiss.
Hearing Lu Sheng's question, the officer in charge of the base rushed over after hearing the news. "Also, they're all in the warehouse. There are too many of them, and we can't handle them all."
"Give me more of these scale stones." Lu Sheng picked up the scale stones and gestured.
…
Usually, it was dissolved and then added with other metals to form an alloy that could effectively resist many kinds of radiation rays. Even the biological field could be isolated.
In the end, Lu Sheng threw away the dark red cutting knife in his hand.
Lu Sheng casually tossed a blue scale stone onto the long metal table in the middle of the crowd.
He made a rough estimation.
However, Red Thorn, who was sitting at the side, knew that he was waiting for someone. Because the frequency of Lu Sheng's heartbeat and breathing was different from when he was asleep.
These amounts were about the size of a watermelon. Under the light, all the scale stones glowed with an alluring, faint metallic luster.
Soon, someone led Lu Sheng and Red Thorn away from the lab to another warehouse where the scale stones were stored.
Suddenly, Lu Sheng let out a soft gasp of surprise. He stood up abruptly and picked up a dark blue stone from beneath him.
"I don't care what method you use. Find a scale stone mine that you can find." Lu Sheng's tone was filled with an inviolable determination.
However, no matter how they searched, they could not find any traces of Lu Sheng's deception.
Red Thorn's towering chest rose and fell rapidly. Her eyes seemed to be burning with fire. This was the first time even Lu Sheng had seen such a piercing brightness. She seemed to be equally excited.
Venaga-class weapons were super-standard weapons that could only be installed on warships.
"I'm coming." Red Thorn rushed to the microphone and answered, "Master, what do you need?"
The ten of them split into four groups. They walked to the two sides of the hall in front of Lu Sheng and stood still.
What replaced them was an additional 70 million Mental Energy units on Deep Blue's interface.
The Bai Brothers stood alone.
He wanted to know the maximum power of this weapon.
The door to the main hall opened slowly. The Baijun Castle Brothers, Ansha, the Wei Handong siblings, and the other four branch managers walked into the hall one after another.
They wiped away the tiny white marks left by the cutting knife on their wrists.
"The largest dealer of the scale stones is the Prahdun Family. They have connections with the commander of the provincial military. They also have a few high-ranking Telekinesis agents in their command. The family's power is astonishing. If we run into them now, won't we … "Amen said softly.
The others, such as the nuclear powered dagger, seemed powerful, but in reality, it was only a stable source of energy.
They were the core members who joined Jiumingtang in the end. The two of them were originally famous arms dealers in the province. They were originally competitors with Ansha.
However, the large number of scale stones that were the size of a small hill still gave Lu Sheng a great deal of satisfaction.
"But if you want, you can go to the warehouse directly."
"Click."
…
The so-called materials were actually various items that could generate Mental Energy that Jiumingtang collected for him under his orders.
The scale stone that was half the size of a palm provided him with about a thousand units of Mental Energy.
Lu Sheng began testing them one by one to see what could generate Mental Energy.
He spent four hours before he finished absorbing all the scale stones in the warehouse.
The bullet did not bounce off. Instead, it embedded itself in the muscles on his chest.
This kind of bullet was too weak. It could not even penetrate his skin.
"Hehehe, Hall Master, I used to have a smuggling business with the scale stone mines. I know where all the scale stone mines in the province belong to. How much do you need? I can easily get my hands on thousands or tens of thousands of kilograms … "
He supported the side of his face with one hand. He seemed to be taking a nap.
However, it was a battle between flesh and technology now.
After some time, she also came back to her senses a little and pulled herself out of the shock of her emotions.
When Lu Sheng walked into the warehouse, he saw the huge amount of scale stones that piled up like a mountain. Although the officer claimed that the production of scale stones was at its lowest point in history, there were very few left in the warehouse.
After all, this was an era of advanced technology. It was not impossible for the flesh to resist bullets. At least, there were native beasts on some planets that could do this.
Two minutes later, a small pile of scale stones appeared on the weapon test bench in front of Lu Sheng.
He still had about ten million Mental Energy left.
"Don't worry, I'm just looking for something … I'm observing something …" Lu Sheng gave a random reason.
"Have the materials I sent before arrived?" Lu Sheng asked in a low voice, slightly impatient.
These two brothers were tall and strong giants that looked like bears. They were more than two meters tall, with muscles all over their bodies and broad bones. They usually wore tight-fitting leather clothes and had an X-shaped chain belt tied around their bodies.
At this time, the people outside the lab were going crazy.
More than an hour later.
There were two left. One had a lecherous gaze, while the other was cold and cruel. They were the Yamen Brothers, known as the Stone Lion Wolves.
This type of ore was usually produced in the deepest part of the planet.
"Clack."
"I said, the next type," Lu Sheng said again.
After getting used to it and accepting it, Red Thorn and the others slowly regained their composure.
After staying in the base for more than a day, Lu Sheng tested more types of ores that had just been transferred over. He discovered that other than scale stones, the other materials had no effect on him.
Otherwise, anyone who saw him staring at a pile of ores with such affection would think that he was mentally ill.
As for the others, they were meaningless.
"I want all of them," Lu Sheng interrupted him.
There were ten core members in total. They were the ten remaining leaders of Jiumingtang after being selected and replaced.
Under close physical contact, dozens of items touched him in an instant.
After some thought, Lu Sheng quickly gathered all the core disciples of Jiumingtang. He brought a sample with him, left the base, and returned to Jiumingtang's headquarters.
These items ranged from antiques to common daily items. From common everyday items to the remains of some strange beasts, there were all kinds of things.
There were only a few conventional weapons below Venaga grade that had a certain effect on him.
Red Thorn quickly communicated with the officer in charge of supervision, and the officer readily agreed.
Lu Sheng wore a tight black vest. On his exposed right arm, there were three blood-like triangular marks.
"It wasn't in vain that I worked so hard for so long."
This was a special mark that appeared after he transformed his blood into the Fourth Anima.
There was an unending stream of Mental Energy in the stone, which gently flowed into his body.
Although scale stones were expensive, they weren't the most precious items.
Wei Handong and Red Thorn stood together.
He sat on a black metal chair. The heavy chair was made from abandoned battleship armor, and weighed a ton.
It was clear that Lu Sheng was really looking for something.
"This …" Ják's expression immediately changed. The scale stone mine wasn't something that any power without a background could meddle with.
"Send them all in. I'll see which ones are useful," Lu Sheng ordered.
For the Base and the Empire, scale stones were a smelting material used in battleship energy defense armor.
Lu Sheng extended a hand inside. Although he couldn't see any changes to the scale stone with his naked eye, he could feel an unending stream of Mental Energy rapidly flowing into his body from the stone. There seemed to be something minuscule within the scale stone that was decreasing.
As for the nuclear core, it could be used as a backup battery for other instruments. It wasn't that nuclear energy was powerful.
This world was different. The energy level was too high. Normal antiques didn't feel anything at all. After testing a few dozen items, Lu Sheng simply lay down inside.
"Yes, it's scale stone. It's a rare and expensive metal ore. What's wrong, Teacher? "Red Thorn said quickly.
"Oh … yes yes yes!" The inspector's frightened voice came from the broadcast.
He had no way of resisting weapons above Venaga grade.
They were huddled together, playing over and over the scene from just now that had been slowed down a hundred times.
The situation was extremely strange, but in Lu Sheng's eyes, it was standard. That was because just now, he had used layers upon layers of his muscles to absorb and digest the bullet's power.
This upgrade to the Fourth Anima had actually cost him nearly 40 million!
"Understood."
Most weapons of this grade were enormous in size. Apart from Telekinesis, no one else would be able to use a Venaga grade weapon.
The skin had caved in, but hadn't been broken. The muscles had absorbed all of the bullet's kinetic energy.
Such a material was extremely expensive and rare. But that was only for the country.
"Next." He casually tossed the gun in his hand to the side.
The scene of the weapon testing just now had left her and the assisting testers fiercely shaken. But looking at Lu Sheng's expression, it seemed he had anticipated it.
