"A businessman?" Zhang Lang looked at the memory card in his hand with surprise. (Google search reading)
"These are enhancements we drew earlier. Since we already have a merchant in our team, we've been saving them up to sell for a good price," Okalis said with a smile. "Since your team is short of a merchant, we'll give them to you. Although this isn't enough to repay your life-saving grace, it's a small token of our gratitude."
This was like a godsend, a godsend. Otherwise, Zhang Lang would have planned to spend all his time drawing rare items when he returned, just to get the Merchant item. Now that someone had offered it to him, he naturally accepted it with a smile.
However, he didn't use it himself, but instead gave it to Le Xinyi.
This is because Zhang Lang's strength is significantly lower than the others, and he often acts alone during missions. If he takes the merchant with him, the other team members will be unable to trade items with each other. After all, to cope with different situations, the team members need to frequently adjust their equipment.
However, if he gave it to someone like Lao Mo or Lei Ting, whom he didn't know well in the main world, it wouldn't be convenient for Zhang Lang to make a trade, since he often needed to provide support to Su Jie's small team.
So after weighing the options, it was given to Le Xinyi. She is very intelligent and can be called upon at any time in the main world, making her more convenient to use.
As for what to trade, he originally only planned to trade the two unique weapons to his teammates, but now that there was a merchant, he wasn't in a hurry and would deal with it back at the altar.
Back on the battlefield, after taking stock, Zhang Lang expressed his regret over Jonathan's death. The group collected his remains and buried him in this world.
Back in the dungeon, everyone asked Zhang Lang about his recent activities. Zhang Lang knew that even if he told them about the Rainbow Bridge and the annihilation of the Si Clan heroes, no one would believe him, and it would only lead to a series of more troublesome questions. So he simply stated that he had destroyed four Si Clan strongholds in this world, and that the Si Clan no longer existed in this world.
From the time they arrived in the world until now, less than half a day has passed. There are still four and a half days left. What they need to do next is to clear out the bugs and accumulate points.
Because a large hole was punched in the dungeon and the shielding barrier was destroyed, nearby insects were quickly attracted and launched a fierce attack on the dungeon.
To the native inhabitants of this world, the insects were indeed a disaster, but to heroes, they were nothing more than a group of primitive beasts, only so numerous that they couldn't be killed off.
With the help of the heroes, the dungeon successfully repelled the insect attack. Seeing one extraordinary person after another, as if they were gods descending to earth, using gorgeous magic and unknown weapons to slaughter the insects, the Dugu siblings and the dungeon soldiers were greatly encouraged and their hope of returning to the surface was rekindled!
Thanks to the heroes' efforts, the insect hives within a hundred miles of the dungeon were quickly cleared away. Next, it was time to launch an expedition to the entire world!
At this point, Zhang Lang found himself in a dilemma.
Completely eradicating the insects from the entire world wouldn't be difficult for him now, although the methods would be rather brutal. After the eradication, the world would probably be unsuitable for human habitation, let alone insects.
However, to minimize the scope of damage, it would require precise strikes against tens of thousands of insect hives worldwide, a tedious and meticulous task that would take him an unknown amount of time to accomplish by himself.
Bring others along? Even if there were transportation, no one could keep up with his pace, and besides, the Twelve Altars don't even have a reliable vehicle...
After much thought, it becomes clear that if humanity wants to survive, it must rely on itself.
Therefore, Zhang Lang sent the others from the Twelve Altars to cooperate with the Nineteen Altars to clear out the insects, while he himself stayed in the underground city.
Fortunately, the nineteenth altar had long-distance communication equipment, and one of them was left for Zhang Lang, so that he could rush to provide support at any time in case of any danger that he could not handle.
For the next few days, Zhang Lang stayed with the Dugu siblings.
On the one hand, he taught them the Bone Meridian Evolution technique with a broken force, and on the other hand, he also discussed with them his situation of being stuck in a bottleneck in cultivating broken force.
"This technique is amazing!" After experiencing the power of the Bone Meridian Heavenly Evolution, the brother and sister couldn't help but exclaim, "Why didn't anyone think of creating another circulation method within the bones before? This way, it not only increases the power but also raises the capacity of the Explosive Force, and the circulation is more stable. It's simply a brilliant idea!"
"Because this wasn't originally a method for applying explosive power." Zhang Lang shook his head. "It was taught to me by a master who cultivated other energies. I refined it over many years before applying it to explosive power."
"Years?" Dugu Lan asked doubtfully, "We've only been apart for a little over half a year, haven't we?"
"...I am exceptionally talented, and my cultivation speed is extremely fast; one year of my cultivation is equivalent to ten years for others..."
"Hey bro, did you hear that? This guy isn't even ashamed of bragging!" Dugu Lan complained.
Dugu Chen rubbed his younger sister's head and said to Zhang Lang, "No matter what, this technique is extremely important. Not only is it incredibly powerful, but it also greatly reduces the dangers of cultivating the 'Collapse Force' technique, making it much easier to popularize!"
"Yes, yes!" Dugu Lan nodded and said, "We'll have all the survivors learn the 'Collapse Force' technique right away. Then every human will be a master, and we won't be afraid of those bugs!"
"That's also my goal." Zhang Lang nodded. "By the way, about the bottleneck I've encountered..."
When this was mentioned, the brother and sister looked at each other in confusion, and finally Dugu Chen said, "We really don't have any experience with this."
"To be honest, we've been practicing the Beng Jin technique since childhood, but we haven't encountered the bottleneck you mentioned. It seems our training level isn't high enough..."
"Is that so..." A hint of disappointment appeared in Zhang Lang's eyes.
"However, I know someone who probably encountered a bottleneck, and in the end, they probably overcame it!"
Dugu Chen changed the subject, and Zhang Lang's eyes lit up again:
"Who is it?"
Dugu Chen looked up and recalled, "Back then, the Dugu family and the Feng family were the two families with the most profound mastery of the Beng Jin technique. Decades ago, my grandfather, Dugu Zong, was the number one master in the world. Countless masters came to challenge him, but none of them could last three rounds against him. However, despite being the strongest, my grandfather was always depressed because his Beng Jin technique had not improved since he reached the peak."
"Everyone believed that Grandpa had reached the limit of the 'Beng Jin' (a powerful force), becoming the pinnacle of human achievement. But Grandpa always believed that the cultivation of 'Beng Jin' could be further advanced."
"For this reason, he devoted himself to research for many years. Finally, when I was five years old, my grandfather went up to the snowy mountains in the northern desert for secluded cultivation, and then he never came back."
"Didn't you go up the mountain to look for them?" Zhang Lang asked, puzzled.
"I've been there." Dugu Chen sighed, "But I didn't find any trace of my grandfather. I only saw traces of his cultivation on the mountaintop, the most striking of which was a huge fist imprint!"
"With Grandpa's previous skill level, he absolutely couldn't have created that fist imprint!"
