â?â
He Junâs smile froze as he glanced at the Oracle Heavenly King.
âI donât know. Iâve never told him this.â The Oracle Heavenly King shook her head.
He Jun pushed up his glasses and looked at Wang Che in surprise.
âThatâs right, I didnât expect you to guess correctlyâ¦â
âInteresting, according to some hidden history, we humans had also thought of using the weapons of foreign civilizations to attack them. We used soul pets to indirectly control these weapons to attack those foreign soldiers and discovered that it was useless.â
âHowever, as remains, they will disintegrate when they attack each other.â
âThis must have triggered another self-destruction program.â
âUnfortunately, if this metal could be used on modern mechanical soul pets, it would definitely increase the status of mechanical soul pets by another level!â
âOr, let some soul pets absorb this debris metal and let them evolve into new, powerful gene characteristics or powerful soul skills.â
âHowever, if a soul pet directly absorbs these metal fragments, it will cause immense damage to the soul pet and endanger its life⦠after melting, it will directly disintegrate and canât be processed into metal food⦠sigh!â
He Jun shook his head again.
He opened the third box.
......
The debris in the third box was different.
It was a dark red chip.
âBattle armor chip.â
He Jun explained, âThe armor of foreign civilization soldiers all have special chips. Our modern mechanical engines were improved according to this improvement.â
âThe material of this chip is also special. It can withstand extremely powerful mental soul attacks and is especially firm.â
âMoreover, this chip should be the core of the soul connection between the armor and the warrior. It usually works both ways.â
âThere will be such a chip in the body of a warrior, and so will the armor. Once itâs damaged, this chip will activate a special defense program. As long as it feels a trace of damage, it will disintegrate into nothingness.â
Wang Che nodded slightly.
These materials could not be studied directly.
They could not use it. It was useless to destroy it.
It was very difficult to develop technology from it.
âOh, right!â
âYour soul pet is the Magnetic Sword, right?â
He Jun thought for a moment, âIn the foreign civilization, thereâs also a special sword in the fourth box.â
As he spoke, He Jun opened the box.
There was indeed a dim sword on it.
âThis is a standard sword among the foreign warriors!â
âLook, thereâs also an article about an alien civilization.â
âIt should be the name of this sword. A professor in the war zone who specializes in language studies has studied it before.â
âIt said that if itâs translated, this word should be called: Immortal Sword.â
Wang Che: ââ¦â
âImmortals in our world represent beautiful and extraordinary people or things. For example, the Flower Fairy soul pet is a symbol of beauty and fantasy.â
âCalling artifacts immortal completely tarnishes the sacred meaning of this word.â
He Jun smiled.
âThis shouldnât be called an Immortal Sword,â Wang Che said. âI feel that this word should be called a Demon Sword.â
âThatâs right!â He Jun praised, âThe word âdemonâ means ferocious and terrifying, and it also has the meaning of destruction and evil. Itâs more suitable to call it the Demon Sword.â
Wang Che: ââ¦â
What he meant was that this was called the Demon Swordâ¦
To be precise, it was called a demonic artifact.
âThis sword is even more terrifying as the standard weapon of an alien civilization!â
He Jun pondered and said, âItâs extremely destructive. The internal structure is extremely complicated and has a special transformation ability. It has both close combat and long-range combat abilities. Itâs in a ruined state at any time, but once the seal on the box is removed, it will emit a terrifying aura that will affect the souls of the surrounding creatures.â
âMoreover, it can automatically lock onto an attack and have no problem tracking a thousand miles. It doesnât have intelligence or spirituality, but it has powerful abilities comparable to soul pets.â
âItâs simply a natural war machine.â
He Jun sighed, âWhen we invaded, countless soul masters and soul beasts had their throats cut off.â
âHowever, it has lost its master now. Itâs only a pile of trash.â
At this point, He Jun shook his head, âEven if itâs useless, we canât use itâ¦â
âThereâs still a box left.â
He Jun opened the last box.
The last piece of debris was rather special.
It was a prismatic round core.
It was impossible to tell what it was.
When Wang Che saw this, he narrowed his eyes.
âThis is a plant seed of an alien civilization.â
He Jun smiled, âAre you surprised? We actually have plants from an alien civilization here. You might not think itâs strange, but we purified them.â
âWhen the foreign civilization descended, they established bases in various regions of the continent.â
âThis soul plant will be planted in every base.â
âWe distributed this soul plant to many agriculture professors to grow. Unfortunately, they didnât grow it.â
âOh right, thereâs also Professor Yun from your Forest Academy.â
He Jun took two steps forward and touched it through the box.
He was probably feeling the uniqueness of this round core.
âLater on, we came to a conclusion.â
âThis is a very special mechanical soul plant, an alien plant.â He Jun sighed, âIn our world, it doesnât have the conditions to grow. Even if itâs placed in the Soul Earth, it canât grow.â
âOtherwise, our research on foreign civilizations should have improved!â
âI heard that youâre in the Forest Academy and are good at growing. Can you tell anything?â
He Jun walked back and asked with a smile.
âEven those professors canât tell what this thing is. What can he tell?â The Oracle Heavenly King smiled and said, âI feel that he canât use anything youâre offering. I remember that youâve developed something over the years. It can be used, right?â
Seeing the Oracle Heavenly King speak up for Wang Che, He Jun smiled.
âIndeed, thereâs something that can be used, but the quantity is too little and it canât be given.â
âOtherwise, itâd be here.â
Wang Che looked at the round core and did not interrupt.
He suddenly said, âOnce this soul plant grows, will it form a tree made of steel?â
âThatâs right!â He Jun was stunned and nodded, âTherefore, our world canât provide the nutrients needed for these soul plants.â
âIt canât grow at all.â
âItâs interesting to say that our world clearly canât provide the nutrients it needs, but those foreign civilizations planted these soul plants on our land. Many professors analyzed that the nutrients should have been provided by the foreign civilizations themselves. They didnât plant them in the soil and only built a base.â
âAccording to the war ruins everywhere, theyâre no longer intact. We donât know how the foreign civilization was nurtured or what nutrients were provided.â
âActually, even if we know, itâs unlikely that our world has these materials.â
âI think itâs possible,â Wang Che suddenly said. âThere are often only a few reasons for civilization invasion. The most important are firstly, to wage war for resources, and secondly, to enslave lives.â
âSince they want to invade our world, could it be for some resources?â
âThatâs right. History scholars have studied these possibilities.â He Jun first nodded, then shook his head and said, âUnfortunately, in history, the invasion of foreign civilizations did not seem to have plundered much of our worldâs resources. Or rather, their technology level was higher at that time. Our worldâs resources were all basic resources to them. They might not like itâ¦â
âItâs true that they enslaved lives. They also captured some human soul masters and soul beasts back then. They seem to be very interested in the martial soul power and soul beasts of our world.â
âUp until now, there has been no accurate or unified explanation regarding the goal of the foreign raceâs invasion, whether it was done on the spur of the moment, whether it wanted to enslave civilization, or whether it was purely for the sake of conquest or other deeper goals.â
Wang Che smiled and did not speak.
âWhat you said is possible.â He Jun pointed at the round core, âBut we really havenât figured out how to grow this thing after so many years. If we force it, this thing will disintegrate like the previous debris.â
âThe soul skills that our world is proud of, especially those that accelerate growth, are completely useless against this seed.â
âFrom elements to machinery, Iâve used almost all the methods I can.â
âHowever, you can guess what these mechanical trees growing from the round core will produce.â
He Jun smiled mysteriously.
âCould it beâ¦â Wang Che pointed at the debris, âThe Tremor Gold and Devour Metal?â
The smile on He Junâs face froze again.
âYour imagination is very rich!â He Jun was surprised, âYou can guess it every time! To be honest, did you learn about it through other channels? Logically speaking, not many people know these things, and they all signed confidentiality agreementsâ¦â
âItâs just a thought.â Wang Che coughed.
He Jun did not ask further and only pointed at the debris.
âThere are only a few types of debris we can provide now.â
âWhich one do you want?â
In fact, in his opinion, they had studied these things for so many years but had not made any breakthroughs.
As a young man, Wang Che probably wanted these things out of curiosity.
To him, the debris was not very helpful.
Moreover, they had almost studied the technology contained in these fragments.
The rest could not be studied thoroughly. Due to the level of civilization, it was impossible in a short period of time.
âIf possibleâ¦â Wang Che thought for a moment, âCan I have them all?â
He Jun was speechless.
The Oracle Heavenly King was speechless.
The two of them were silent for a while.
âAll of them?â He Jun looked at the Oracle Heavenly King.
The Oracle Heavenly King looked at the ceiling and nodded after a moment.
âItâs up to you, Professor He. If you donât lack them, thereâs no difference in giving him a few more.â
There was a huge difference!
He Jun thought to himself, âThat round seed, that sword, and the chip are all rare items.â
There were not many who could maintain them to this extent.
Howeverâ¦
He Jun also nodded and said, âAlright, there are only five types of debris anyway. Itâs not much. If you really want them, you can have them all.â
âThank you.â Wang Che nodded.
âAlright, Iâll help you settle the procedures and sign a few agreements. Iâll keep this for you.â He Jun thought for a moment, âIâve roughly explained these five types of debris to you. If thereâs a problem, donât look for me. Just look for the Oracle Heavenly King.â
Wang Che looked at the Oracle Heavenly King.
âIf anything happens to you, Iâll indeed be responsible.â The Oracle Heavenly King said helplessly.
Wang Che followed He Jun to settle the procedures and sign a confidentiality agreement.
Then, he placed the five boxes into the medal.
âAlright, if you discover anythingâ¦â He Jun said casually, âYou can also contact us. If thereâs a useful discovery, the war zone will reward you with something.â
âWith my level, I shouldnât have many findings,â Wang Che said. âIâm just playing with it. Iâm only interested in that history, but itâs too vague.â
âI guess youâre the same.â He Jun sighed, âIndeed, there are too many people who are interested in that history. The foreign civilization is so attractive, but itâs also so dangerous. If youâre not careful, youâll be affectedâ¦â
At this point, He Jun shook his head and stopped talking.
âOh right, if thereâs a problem with your soul pet, communicate more with Little Huan.â He Jun smiled and said, âSheâs not bad in this aspect, especially your Bamboo Bear. Sheâs also quite knowledgeable about mechanical soul pets.â
âOf course, of course.â Wang Che nodded.
After all, there were still a few special soul bones on He Huanâs side.
After bidding farewell to He Jun, the Oracle Heavenly King brought Wang Che away from this special cosmic military base and returned to the North River Continentâs Forest Academy.
On the way.
âOh right, I forgot to ask you something.â The Oracle Heavenly King suddenly said, âHave you cultivated the mental soul skill I gave you last time?â
Wang Che said, âNot yet.â
The Soul Guiding Skill the Oracle Heavenly King had mentioned was given to Wang Che after sparring with one of her soul pets and Bear Treasure.
It was called the Divine Observation Technique.
The Oracle Heavenly King pondered and said after a while, âYou still have to cultivate this mental soul skill. Donât worry, itâs harmless to you, and itâll be very helpful in the future.â
âSpeaking of which, if not for He Huan, I wouldnât have taken it out.â
âIf you donât cultivate, youâll waste this chance.â
Wang Che thought and said, âIt seems that this Soul Guiding Skill has a secret.â
âThereâs a secret. When you cultivate to a certain realm, Iâll tell you.â The Oracle Heavenly King smiled and said, âAlso, regarding the soul pet the Glazed Heavenly King gave you⦠if it canât hatch, donât force it!â
The Oracle Heavenly King had a serious expression.
âThat soul pet is very troublesome. The Glazed Heavenly King should have already told you. I wonât say anything else⦠once thereâs a problem, tell us immediately! Itâs best not to try to resolve it alone!â
Wang Che nodded and said, âMay I ask if you want that Oracle Phantom Spirit to help you resolve the problem of the mysterious ice palace on the Arctic Ice Plain?â
âItâs only one of the measures,â the Oracle Heavenly King said. âThe Oracle Phantom Spirit can help more than this, but it can only give us a warning now⦠As for the details, letâs wait until your level is higher and at least Level 50. Thereâs no meaning in knowing too much now.â
âHowever, I can give you a reminder. Itâs related to the Divine Observation Technique.â
Wang Che: ââ¦â
Indeed, no matter what world the expert was in, they liked to play with riddles.
Thinking about himself back then, Wang Che understood⦠After all, he had been like this in the past⦠It was even more severe than the Oracle Heavenly King.
His riddles went around in bigger circles.
After sending him back to the Forest Academy, Wang Che bade farewell to the Oracle Heavenly King and returned to his small house.
Then, he took out five boxes.
Looking at the five boxes, Wang Che muttered after a while, âThereâs hope for the Magnetic Swordâs engine.â
âI didnât expect the foreign civilization to be that world⦠How⦠interesting.â
