Dawn Spider

A 'treasure trove' was discovered on the ground floor. It should be an armory, made of immortal materials, and is still as good as new.

Injecting the Force, the white screen rises, and black characters from 0 to 9 appear.

Jin tried entering the first row of 24-digit keys engraved on the wooden sign.

The buzzing sound of metal mechanisms turning.

The treasure vault door slides up and down to open.

The cabinet behind the door, which should have been displaying armor and weapons, was empty.

On the last shelf, there were 10 black wooden boxes arranged in a neat row.

Jin controlled a spider silk thread to wrap around the wooden sign, glanced at the threatening warning on the front, and hesitated at the door, not daring to go forward.

The insects behind him could see that Jin was afraid, and they all became frightened and moved back.

The alien race wasn't all wiped out? Are they planning to come back?

The insects' initial excitement at discovering such a massive ruin vanished, replaced by fear and anxiety.

"There's something in there."

Jin raised his claw and pointed, instructing, "Firethorn, send two soldier ants over to retrieve the item."

"Ok!"

Hidden at the very back of the line, Firethorn, stealthily concealed within the termite horde, shook its antennae and issued a command.

Jin retreated, moving away from the gate.

The insects all ran away in unison.

Five soldier ants lined up and crawled into the warehouse. One soldier ant stepped forward, pried open a wooden box on the display shelf with its antennae, and took it down.

No dangerous situation occurred.

The other four followed suit, stepping forward one by one, using their tentacles to pry open the shelves, each taking a wooden box from the display case, and then running out of the warehouse.

There were no traps or mechanisms set up.

Jin manipulated a coil of spider silk, took one, and examined it briefly.

The perfectly fitted wooden material, even when scratched by a claw tip, is harder than steel and cannot leave the slightest mark.

It has a metal latch that opens with a gentle flick.

Inside the wooden box was a dark green bead, about seven or eight centimeters in diameter.

The other insects also scrambled to take the wooden box and eagerly opened it to take a look.

"What is this?"

"Judging from the material, this is a very high-grade artifact!"

"Specially stored in a treasure vault? Then it must still be usable?"

"What kind of treasure? What is it used for?"

"Eh~!"

"There are characters!"

"Mr. Jin, take a look, there are characters on the back of the lid."

"..."

Perhaps worried that adventurers might be unfamiliar with the items and not recognize their purpose, the wooden box lid was thoughtfully decorated with engraved characters explaining their uses:
【Wooden King's Heart Armor】

[Ability 1: Scattering beans to create soldiers]

[Ability Granted Two: Jupiter's Shield]

[Ability Granted Three, Eye of the Azure Tree - Forbidden]

"This is a true treasure!"

Jin exclaimed in surprise and uncertainty, "This seems to be a combat armor specifically designed for plants. It can grant three powerful wood-type abilities."

As Jin spoke, he used his mental energy to scan the area.

The other four wooden boxes that were taken out all contained the 'Wooden King's Heart Armor', each with characters engraved inside the lid, and all granted the same abilities.

Ten sets of the Wooden King Armor produced in batches? Or just one?
This thing is of a very high grade, starting at the Immortal level. As for the cost...

The so-called 'heart armor' is an armor worn on the 'heart' of a Force plant to protect the core of its life from harm.

Because divinely bestowed Force plants are scarce in human civilization, each one is a precious strategic resource. Therefore, they are given preferential treatment. The Galactic Federation has a professional team that designs and builds Heart Armor for Force plants free of charge, and each Force plant has three free opportunities.

Jin roughly understood.

This ruin is home to several wood-type primal force plants with extremely high evolutionary levels, led by the 'Wood King'.

These 10 sets of Heart Armor in the warehouse are most likely ones that were used and discarded when they were young.
"Combat armor for plants?"

"Can plants from alien civilizations also fight?"

"Isn't it right?"

“Mr. Jin, I heard that you once dug up a divinely bestowed seed from an alien civilization? I also heard that it’s no different from the plants in our natural pantheon.”

"I've heard of it too, it's a mutated oak tree?"

"So, this 'armor' can grant Force plants formidable combat abilities?"

"I think it's mainly for self-defense for the divinely bestowed seed, right?"

"It should be."

"Does this thing have any practical value?"

"There must be!"

"It mainly depends on how powerful the ability it grants is, right?"

"If it is powerful, then assign it to a powerful God-given Seed, which would be equivalent to having an additional fighting force to protect the territory."

"..."

The insects discussed it.

"Impressive. Very valuable."

Jin gave the conclusion directly.

Lord Jin Nan asked, "How does it compare to the Force Convergence Shield? Mr. Jin, how much do you estimate it could sell for? Would 1000 million be okay?"

"Hard to say."

“You won’t know until you try it.”

"Moreover, this thing should have two limiting conditions."

Jin pondered for a moment and said, "The first restriction is that it can only be used on Wood-type God-given Seeds."

"The second restriction is that it's called 'Wood King's Heart Armor.' As the name suggests, it's armor worn on the heart of a Force plant. As far as I know, all Force plants only condense their heart at the King level, right? That means only the Tree King can use this?"

All the insects turned to look at the Blood Fruit Lord and the Purple Wind Mountain Lord. As everyone knew, the Sumeru Insect King of their Horned Longhorn Beetle tribe had two divinely bestowed seeds: one was called 'Sumeru Kudzu,' an earth-type vine, and the other was called 'Big Fruit Thorn Hedge Tree,' which was a wood-type.

"Should we avoid seeking out the Sumeru Insect King?"

"That old guy's insect quality is questionable. What if we let him test the stuff and then can't get it back?"

"It's not a matter of 'what if' we can't get it back, it's a matter of 'we definitely can't get it back!' Believe me!"

"We have absolutely no way to deal with it."

"Exactly. We can't take the risk."

"Where else can I find a King-level Wood-type Divine Seed?"

"The Flame Spider Kingdom has many Spider Kings..."

"Boss Jin also holds a high position in the tribe..."

The insects' gazes turned to Jin again.

gold:"……"

Jin said, "The Thousand-Clawed Spider King's Thousand-Clawed Giant Fish Vine Tree is a wood-type tree, and the Thousand-Clawed Spider King has a good temperament and character, so we can consider asking it to help with the testing. We'll talk about it later."

After saying that, he manipulated the spider silk to take out the other 5 wooden boxes from the warehouse display shelf, opened them one by one to check, and found 5 identical sets of 'Wooden King Heart Armor'.

They packed everything up in one go.

"The alien warriors also left us two codes..."

"There is another treasure trove underground."

"Have a look!"

The insects hurriedly went underground.

Two treasure vault gates.

Jin randomly selects one, injects his Force, and tries to enter the second row of passwords.

The door slides open up and down.

Behind the door were mountains of neatly stacked raw crystal storage boxes.

The mental scans totaled as many as 3000.

All the insects turned their gaze to the depths of the treasure vault, where a square device, a little over two meters long and a little over one meter wide and high, stood. It had six wheels at the bottom and was an old, worn-out device with a peeling, mottled coating on its surface...

Upon seeing this, Jin noticed that the eight spider eyes were gleaming.

"what is that?"

"Mr. Jin, if I remember correctly, you went through a lot of trouble to get a piece of this equipment back from the Cyathea Mountain ruins back then?"

"Could it be one of those devices used to process food infused with the Force?"

"That's the same kind of equipment! I was there, I saw it, it's exactly the same!"

"This thing must be very valuable, right?"

"You've struck it rich!"

"..."

The insects revel.

"Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!"

Jin was not happy that the insects recognized the item at a glance. He stepped forward, injected his primal force, opened the rear compartment cover, and filled it with 6 primal crystals. The equipment could then be started and used normally.

Jin said directly, "I've reserved this equipment. Stop looking around and hurry up. Check the treasure chest and see if there are any original crystals left."

"Ok."

"Okay~"

"This thing is priceless!"

"Not to mention priceless, it's worth at least a hundred million, right?"

"Mr. Jin, how about I give you a 50% discount, 50 million?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Check the box now!"

Jin urged him on, annoyed.

The insects dispersed, then moved their claws together, beginning to inspect the original crystal storage box.

Lord Jin Nan activated his metal powers, manipulating numerous metal boxes to levitate off the ground, and then shouted with joy:

"There are two boxes here with goods."

Jin Shan stepped forward to check.

Both were half-full boxes.

I tried entering the password, and after a series of tests, it opened successfully. The simplest one was 12345678.
With both boxes combined, there are still 753 raw crystals left.

The other insects quickly checked all the other original crystal storage boxes in the warehouse, and they were all empty. Fortunately, they could all be opened, so there was no need to bother cracking the passwords.

Don't linger.

Jin beckoned, and the insects followed closely to another treasure vault that appeared to have a higher level of defense.

Infuse the Force, the screen rises, try entering the third row of password, wrong, then enter the second row of password, the treasure vault door is successfully opened.

A small vault with three rows of cabinets against the wall.

Opening them one by one, each cabinet contained a gene-based agent storage box carved with exquisite patterns of flowers, birds, and trees.

The insects all moved their claws together, opening and examining each one one by one.

It's all empty.

Deep inside, against the wall, in a metal cabinet, Lord Tuanhua took out a gene agent storage box, weighed it, and was overjoyed.

"This treasure chest is full! Food blessed by the Force!"

All the insects crowded around, vying to open the boxes and cabinets for inspection.

After a brief period of chaos, everything quieted down.

The treasure vault contains a total of 200 storage boxes for the divinely bestowed gene serum, of which 10 contain items.

Jin tried to enter the third row of passwords carved on the wooden plaque.

The box was opened successfully.

Quick check.

A high-grade wood-type divine gene agent.

All 10 boxes were opened; they were all filled with wood-based materials. (End of Chapter)
