After returning to the lounge, Li Xiang pulled up the information on the recording device. Looking at the points, he felt like he was dreaming.
Competitor: Li Xiang
Competitive Title: Code S
Highest Competitive Floor: 20
Competitive Points: 50000 (50000)
Overall Competitive Ranking: 10000 +
Sure enough, even though he had reached the lowest level of 50,000 points, he was still below 10,000 in the overall ranking. From this, it could be seen how many competitors there were in the Sky Arena.
Li Xiang didn't know who the person behind Bai Jiaqi was, but to be able to convince this arrogant young master, it was obvious that the other party's strength wasn't low. Furthermore, they were targeting him.
Letting Bai Jiaqi go this time was a response to that person. He wasn't afraid of the other party, but at the same time, he was willing to leave a way out. He didn't want to fight to the death.
Whether it was Bai Jiaqi or Cecilia, they were just fleeting clouds to him. Speaking of enemies, he still had General Shogun and Tarot Cards. He also had the entire Bai family as an obstacle. Compared to these, the people he had provoked were nothing.
The most important thing right now was to get a ticket to travel through the universe as soon as possible. He also had a countdown timer in his room. There were only 205 hours left. After clearing the 20th floor, he had earned 5,000,000 Blue Star Coins, which was equivalent to 50 standard tubes. In addition to the 85 from before, he had a total of 135 tubes. He was just around the corner from consuming the 150 tubes he needed.
However, the magic resonance stone was a big problem. It was at least 100 million in resources. Where was he going to get that?
After fighting for so long in the Sky Arena, he had only earned five million Blue Astral Coins. Of course, at this rate, he could earn ten million Blue Astral Coins in a month's time. However, that would require him to keep fighting and not lose. He didn't have the time to waste here.
Compared to the magic resonance stone, which he could obtain through other means, the Winged Chariot blueprint was something he had to obtain.
After seeing Lei Xiong's Hidden Flower 16 and Zhang Xixi's Red Tiger 003, he realized the importance of a good ride. If he had such a flashy ride back then, he wouldn't have been chased around by the Kuang Tie's men.
Moreover, he would definitely have to travel between many numbered cities in the future, so it wouldn't be particularly convenient to take the steam locomotive. The scions of the more powerful aristocratic families usually had their own personal vehicles, small airships, and private troops. Occasionally, they would also take various high-end official transportation vehicles.
That was a life he couldn't imagine.
The more he came into contact with people, the more he felt the huge difference between the social classes in this world. He had a unique bloodline and opportunities, as well as unknown abilities and secrets. Compared to people of the same background, his starting point was much, much higher, but this did not mean that he was the most outstanding among his peers.
Hiding, working hard, and then shocking the world with a single brilliant feat. This was the best way to come out into the world.
The latent stage was the most challenging time.
"Looks like I have to make good use of the time to learn mechanics and increase my combat strength." The more Li Xiang thought about it, the more urgent he felt. The enemy was strong, and time was of the essence. He didn't have the time to relax. Ming Xu had also returned to Dong Ling's home. If she left him far behind in a month, how would they continue to team up in the future?
The Winged Chariot was something he had to obtain!
Li Xiang, who no longer felt sleepy, got up and sat beside his desk. He spread out a piece of white paper and listed out the items he needed to purchase.
Material Purchase Form (Pending)
1. Origin Substance Gun, preferably a special type with two canisters. Estimated cost: 300,000 Blue Star Coins.
2. Origin Substance Cold Weapon. Estimated cost: 500,000 Blue Star Coins.
3. Origin Substance Combat Uniform. Estimated cost: 1,000,000 Blue Star Coins.
4. Materials needed to create Black Snake. Estimated cost: 200,000 Blue Star Coins.
5. Latest model metal control panel. Estimated cost: 1,000,000 Blue Star Coins.
Total cost: 3,000,000 Blue Star Coins.
For the time being, he only thought of these materials and equipment. Just these alone would cost him at least 3,000,000 Blue Star Coins. Including the Origin Substance Gas he would need to use in battle, he estimated that it would cost him 5,000,000 Blue Star Coins.
Li Xiang clicked his tongue. It was just a single replenishment of equipment, yet it cost so much. No wonder Mechanics were so popular. The cost of maintenance was much lower. To those who had just entered the university, every Origin Form Gas was an important resource. After all, not everyone had the support of a powerful organization.
"Ah, hopefully these 100,000 points will be enough. Otherwise, it will be really troublesome." Li Xiang slapped his forehead. For the ultimate trial, the officials definitely wouldn't provide any weapons or equipment, especially Origin Substance Gas. No matter what it was, they would need this kind of basic energy source. No wonder the Wessex Technology Company was able to monopolize the market. They had basically grasped everyone's lifeline.
Thinking of this, he looked at his grayish-white scale bar again. It had already reached 71.2%. Why was it still increasing so quickly?
He didn't quite understand. Furthermore, the scale bar was still increasing by 0.01% every ten minutes. Could it be that there was something on him that could provide it with Origin Substance Liquid?
Previously, Li Xiang had guessed that the grayish-white scale bar increased by absorbing the excess Origin Substance Liquid from machinery and other items. That was why there were so many high-grade items. However, he didn't have any high-grade items on him right now.
He fumbled around for a while, and a letter suddenly fell out.
This was a gift from Banco during the day. He had returned to his resting room to take a nap. After being busy for a while, he had almost forgotten about it.
The endless stream of Origin Substance Liquid seemed to have been absorbed from this letter.
Li Xiang hurriedly opened the letter. A transparent stone fell out. It was cold to the touch. The thin strands of Origin Substance Liquid had been absorbed from this stone.
"What is this thing?" He doubtfully played with it. It was a transparent stone that he had never seen before. Upon closer inspection, there were strange runes engraved on it. There were magic particles of six different colors around it. It was very beautiful.
This was also the first time he had seen magic particles in the outside world!
These runes were very powerful to be able to trap magic particles that were scattered in the air at any time.
He immediately took out his Polar night communicator and scanned it. The functions of a super member were quite useful. This kind of identification function could scan an object and then match it with the one in the inventory. He could quickly come up with a conclusion.
However, when the result popped up, Li Xiang was stunned.
[Attributeless Magic Resonance Stone]
Description: A very special magic resonance stone. There are no special runes engraved on it. It can be matched with any magic scroll. As long as it is placed on a magic scroll, it will become a matching magic resonance stone.
Origin: Wessex Technology Company
Price: 5000 standard tubes of Origin Substance Gas (500 million Blue Astral Coins)
As everyone knew, magic resonance stones were usually mass-produced by the Magician who created the magic scrolls. They were compatible with the magic scrolls that were created. If you wanted to buy them, you could only buy them from the Magician who created them.
Li Xiang's "Enhanced Shattering Warhead" had to buy the corresponding magic resonance stone from Night Shadow. If he asked for 500 million, it would be 500 million. If he asked for 1 billion, it would be 1 billion. There was no way to bargain, unless you didn't want to learn this magic.
There was a type of magic resonance stone that didn't have any attributes and could be matched with any magic scroll. Only Wessex Technology Company had this kind of advanced technology.
This … He was just worried about the magic resonance stone, and now he had one. This kind of good luck made Li Xiang feel deeply uneasy.
He and Cecilia were just strangers who met by chance. There was no need for Banco to pay such a high price to keep him quiet.
That was 500 million, a fortune that Li Xiang couldn't even imagine. He wouldn't believe that it was just money for Banco to keep him quiet.
However, with such a huge temptation, Li Xiang couldn't refuse at all.
"Forget it, who cares. Wessex is such a big company. Would they scheme against a small character like me?" Li Xiang weighed the magic resonance stone in his hand, and the haze in his heart dissipated. With it, as long as he had enough Origin Form gas, he could try to learn that magic.
.....
Sky Arena, 99th floor.
This floor was a large, luxuriously decorated flat floor. It had everything from furniture to all kinds of mechanical devices. It was extremely large, and it was truly high up in the sky. Through the circular transparent walls, one could clearly see the dazzling stars in the sky. It was almost as if one could touch them up close.
The view was excellent. From this angle, one could see thousands of lights and the night scenery of 0123 City.
Here, you would have the pleasure of looking down on your territory like a king.
The design of the flat floor was very luxurious. It had a strange shape, and its large area allowed it to easily accommodate a large swimming pool, a sky view, a botanical garden, and other facilities. It was hard to imagine.
The highest floor of the Sky Arena was actually a person's residence.
Wessex's retro attire could be seen everywhere, as well as unbelievably beautiful female servants.
At this moment, a group of female servants were busy preparing hot water, food, and clothes. The young lady who would wake up in a while had to be taken care of very well.
"The young lady has a habit of drinking milk when she wakes up. Are you ready?" Banke asked the busy female servants as he walked in. When they saw him, the female servants hurriedly pulled up their skirts and curtsied.
"Sir Banke, don't worry. We've already prepared iced pure milk. This pure milk is of the highest quality. We processed it overnight, and it's definitely fresh and delicious," one of the female servants said with a smile.
"Mm. Let me know when the young lady wakes up." Banke nodded slightly and continued to instruct the others.
To the staff of the Wessex Technology Company, taking care of Miss Cecilia's daily life was their everything. If the young lady was dissatisfied, who knew how many people would suffer.
Cecilia, who returned from the arena, went to bed early. He calculated the time. "That young lady" should wake up.
At this moment, a servant quickly ran over and whispered a few words into his ear. It was the result of the Russian Roulette between Li Xiang and Bai Jiaqi.
Hearing that Li Xiang won, but Bai Jiaqi unexpectedly didn't die, Banke froze for a moment before chuckling. This little guy wasn't as simple as he looked.
Since he was someone the young lady valued, it would be more interesting if he helped him a little.
"The young lady woke up, the young lady woke up!" a female servant suddenly shouted in a panic, and then the tense work began in the flat floor.
Banke also calmed down and stood respectfully to the side. This young lady was different from the one who was with Li Xiang in the arena during the day.
.....
Sky Arena, 20th floor, a lounge.
Bai Jiaqi was lying on a large bed. Beside her were two beautiful naked girls. He hugged the two of them, but his eyes were unprecedentedly serious.
After going through that near-death experience, he seemed to have matured a lot. If it was any other time, he would have been fooling around tonight. But no matter what he was playing, his mind was filled with the words Li Xiang had said to him.
Pray. If it really worked, he might be able to keep his life.
Before he fired the gun, he didn't think that he would survive.
The steam pistol's gas column was indeed in that square, but the steam pistol produced by the Sky Arena had actually jammed at that moment. Anyone would find it unbelievable.
Since he could prove the result, he was able to keep his life.
But was this really a coincidence?
There was a message from his subordinates on the communication device beside him.
He also ran a normal faction outside called the 24K Pure Gold Dog Head Gang. Originally, he didn't manage the gang at all and never looked at the information. He didn't expect that on the first floor, his subordinates would witness Li Xiang's talent.
"Li Xiang …" Bai Jiaqi looked at the sky outside the glass wall and fell into deep thought.
