Chapter 269 I Remembered Something Happy [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

"Overlord, from now on, the command and guidance of the formation personnel structure will be entrusted to you."

Fang Ge's words surprised the big white man.

However, his long-standing professional competence led Ba Wang to nod and await further instructions.

Unlike some demanding clients, the team leader not only provides the requirements but also the methodology.

"The Heavenly Demon Puppet is a type of puppet or machine. The conventional control method involves implanting a soul imprint into the puppet's body."

Fang Ge explained in detail, "But as long as there is a reasonable operating system, the [Secondary Core] can certainly also control the Heavenly Demon Puppet. In this way, the intelligence problem of the Heavenly Demon Puppet can be compensated for to a certain extent."

"Furthermore, by using the [Misaka Network] technology, along with the [Fantasy Master] technology data that can be purchased without side quests, and by having Chu Xuan combine the aforementioned achievements... we can integrate both ordinary Reincarnation Army soldiers and undead into the cluster mind."

"With the secondary core and Ainstone sharing the computing power, it is not difficult to control."

Creating a mid-level fourth-tier Heavenly Demon Puppet... isn't cheap. Chu Xuan quoted 1000 points for a fourth-tier Reincarnation Army member with A-grade bloodline.

Making it into a Tier 4 beginner White Zetsu and then converting it into an Earth Demon Puppet has a very low material cost, but the labor and time costs are substantial.

The evolution of the Earth Demon Puppet into the Heaven Demon Puppet requires tempering with lightning... which also takes time.

The cost per unit will climb to around 1500 points. However, the research and manufacturing budget allocated to Chu Xuan is only 400,000 reward points. He still needs to work on array formation, weapon crafting, runes…

—Earning 1.5 million reward points from a horror movie, it still seems to disappear so quickly…

Therefore, Fang Ge was already quite satisfied with being able to allocate 50,000 points to form the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals during this interlude. The remaining stars would obviously be filled by undead and ordinary reincarnation soldiers.

Previously, Ba Wang had experience operating mechanical bodies to run the Giant Energy Cloud Bat Array, so it was a good fit for his profession.

As for the two A-level side quests for the Overlord...

"Since when you enter a horror movie, you're basically confined to my inner world, you don't need to face enemies directly, and there's virtually no risk..."

Fang Ge offered a proposal: "I suggest you use these two A-level side quests to enhance Zhao Yingkong's [Mystic Eyes of Death Perception]... This is related to whether we can obtain Luo Gandao's new mecha in its entirety later on."

Upon hearing about the new mecha, Luo Gandao's eyes lit up. He was about to shout "Long live the captain!" when Li Shuaixi, standing beside him, firmly pressed him down, warning him that the leader was speaking and he shouldn't disrupt the serious atmosphere!
Seeing this, Fang Ge found it hard to keep a straight face, but still continued speaking expressionlessly:
"As for Zhao Yingkong's self-enhancement, this time the Interlude will be basically saturated. After obtaining the S-level side quest, you can exchange for a bloodline... If you still insist on being a werewolf, then you can enhance the bloodline to something like the S-level giant wolf Fenrir."

“Captain, it’s not only people from Central Continent who have a strong sense of collectivism, I understand… It’s not a big deal if we don’t repay it.”

Upon hearing this, the Overlord patted his chest and laughed heartily, "Being the commander of the Reincarnation Army is a dream come true, and I've had my fill of it!"

The Overlord's inner demons are his deceased comrades-in-arms... but this is only its manifestation; in essence, it is loneliness.

Just as he would willingly become a mercenary, wandering aimlessly through various countries and regions.

The Overlord never considered the present-day Arctic to be his homeland.

With his homeland disintegrated, he and his comrades were nothing more than homeless wolves. After his comrades died, he was just a lone wolf covered in wounds.

Now, Ba Wang only hopes that he won't repeat the same mistake with the Zhongzhou team...

It felt like a revolving lantern...

The burly white man yawned, rubbed his eyes, and then said cheerfully, "As for the werewolves... let's talk about that later. The needs of the collective should be the priority!"

“Alright, between the B-rank Dotted Line Mystic Eye and the AA-rank Death Perception Mystic Eye, we still need an A-rank Square Mystic Eye… Zhang Heng, you’ll handle this A-rank side quest.” Fang Ge nodded in agreement.

Zhang Heng, who was in the throes of his dream of becoming a sword immortal, hadn't reacted immediately.

He only snapped out of his daze when Cheng Xiao nudged his waist.

Zhang Hengteng stood up abruptly, excitedly saying, "Oh! Is it my turn?" "I know you're excited..."

Cheng Xiao tried his best to calm himself down, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Can you take your shoes off my feet right now? Don't you think you can't stand up straight?"

To be honest, Zhang Heng's ability to stand so steadily shows he has some skill.

"Hahaha... Sorry!" Zhang Heng scratched his head sheepishly and quickly took a half step back.

"Move the other foot away as well," Wang Xia suddenly blurted out. "I'm just masking my aura, not that I'm dead. Thank you."

—How exactly are you sitting? Are you so easy to step on? So Zhang Heng didn't realize it was because he had two feet on top of each other, which is why he stood up straight?

Fang Ge couldn't help but mutter to himself, marveling at how terrifying the Hilarious Dao Erosion truly was.

"If you want to laugh, do it after the meeting."

Fang Ge tapped the table, signaling everyone to stay calm and not be contaminated, before continuing her conversation with Zhang Heng:

"Don't worry, I remember your request... Since you're in such a hurry, I'll arrange it for you as soon as I get Zhao Yingkong an A-grade Fangzheng Demon Eye."

[The Square Demon Eye grants temporary access to a three-dimensional perspective; hitting a blind spot erases an entire area. Repeated use can damage the brain. Requires the Dot-Line Demon Eye, one A-rank side quest, and 8000 reward points.]

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are a form of causality weapon manifested in a human. Death Perception is the ability to directly perceive death; it allows the eye to see dark, crack-like lines called "death lines" on the surface of most objects. Cutting along these lines inflicts indefensible and incurable damage. The intersections of these death lines create "death points"; striking these points erases the object entirely, even its conceptual existence. Repeated use can damage the brain. Requires the Mystic Eyes of Cube, two A-rank side quests, and 15000 reward points.

Almost the instant Fang Ge finished speaking, Zhao Yingkong received the [Enhancement Confirmation Prompt].

Zhang Heng's efficiency is outrageous!

After silently confirming, Zhao Yingkong floated into the air and began the enhancement process. Seeing this, Ba Wang quickly completed the payment and deduction.

The Square Demon Eye greatly expands the physical range of its attack. Originally, the Dot-Line Demon Eye could only erase creatures the size of a person, and its effectiveness against larger enemies was limited.

The improvement from the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception is even more exaggerated.

No matter how large the enemy is, as long as its vital point is hit and its vital line is cut, it will either die or be erased. This is no longer limited to living beings and objects; even concepts can be killed.

For example, if a person is seriously injured, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception can directly erase the wound, achieving a healing effect through causality.

At the same time, for a fourth-tier powerhouse, when facing an enemy, they can very accurately kill certain things... such as killing [consciousness], killing [energy cycle], and so on.

Faced with the resistance of the Light of the Mind, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception's ability to consume and break through the Light of the Mind is more than thirty times greater than that of the Mystic Eyes of the Starting Line.

Destroying Evangelion is easy, but capturing it intact requires special methods. It can be said that without the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, the Central Continent Team would not have been able to obtain Evangelion intact.

"Very well, you want to become a sword immortal, right?" Fang Ge asked knowingly.

"Yes, yes!" Zhang Heng nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "Flying swords, sword cultivation techniques, the Myriad Swords Technique... basically, whatever a sword immortal should have, I'll practice!"

Fang Ge, however, remained calm and deliberately mysterious, saying, "Old-fashioned sword immortals not only have limited style, but their strength is also quite lacking..."

"Therefore, I need to make some modifications to your outdated ideas."

"puff--"

Zheng Zha, who was drinking Reinhardt sauce, couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

If Fang Ge hadn't reacted quickly and used his true energy to block it, he probably would have been sprayed all over!
Realizing his lapse in composure, Zheng Zha immediately called on the main god to cleanse the mess and sincerely apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I just remembered something happy..."

"What's the good news?" Zhang Heng couldn't help but ask.
