Chapter 825: Special Item: Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar MK 3
Su Yang fell into a daze the moment he left the balancing scale.
Among all the little monsters in the family, Little Deeny was always the most considerate. She seemed to have sensed Su Yang’s emotions, so she teleported to Su Yang’s side. “Master, why are you frowning?”
Su Yang sighed and explained his current problem.
Little Deeny was silent for a moment, and blue streams of data flashed across her eyes.
A moment later, a look of surprise appeared on her face, and the data stream in her eyes disappeared. Then, she said to Su Yang, “Master, although this condition is very harsh and difficult to circumvent, there are still other methods you could try.”
Su Yang looked up at Little Deeny and asked in surprise, “You have an idea?”
Little Deeny first nodded, then shook his head. “Master, it’s actually not that difficult of an idea. I just feel like there’s a chance it could work.”
Little Deeny said, “The requirement for this special ability is that only items with “special abilities” would be effective. Does the snow monster’s fur fall into this category then? What about the Quickgold Monsters’ eggs and the mutated plants on Socot Island?
“They should probably all be part of it. In principle, they have special abilities, but they have yet to be activated.”
Su Yang was stunned for a moment and thought about it.
Little Deeny was also explaining why she was thinking like that. “Actually, I feel like the reason why this special item requires “special abilities” is probably because it requires spiritual energy.
“In other words, it is the same as the system, it relies on spiritual energy to change the rules.
“This is in line with the nature of the spiritual energy we have developed.
“Hence my bold guess.”
Su Yang’s eyes lit up when he heard Little Deeny’s analysis. ‘She’s right!
‘That is possible indeed!
‘In any case, I don’t need to spend a single cent to try. If I succeed, I could save a bunch of special items.’
Therefore, at the thought of this, Su Yang quickly asked the Little Monster Beans to retrieve all the Quickgold Monsters’ eggs and Snow Monsters’ fur that he had stored recently.
To facilitate the experiment, Su Yang even had Little Deeny go to the research center to get a bag of [Blood Cotton] vines.
He then went back to the space in the balancing scale to experiment, placing all the “materials” on the right side of the scale. However, reality gave Su Yang and Little Deeny a heavy blow in the face. Because... They could not be used.
For a moment, Little Deeny was speechless.
This was because she also felt disheartened by it. ‘How long is it going to take me to accumulate these special items one by one?’
However... Just as Little Deeny was feeling a little dejected, Su Yang caught a glimpse of his own thoughts. It was obvious that there was no way to bypass the rules of the balancing scale. The “materials” that were collected in batches could not be used.
However... Just because he could not use the materials collected in bulk did not mean that he could not mass produce special items!
At the thought of this, Su Yang finally found the “blind spot” that he had unintentionally thought of earlier. ‘As long as I add some points to these monster’s materials, they can become a “standard” special item!
‘These materials may not be effective now, but it doesn’t mean that it still won’t be effective after these materials become standard items, right?’
At that thought, Su Yang quickly got Little Deeny to bring four [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar].
These [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar] were the products that Su Yang gave to the Quickgold Monster... Liquid metal that was obtained after adding a point for it.
Furthermore, due to the products of the Quickgold Monster, these liquid metals really did contain a special ability that had yet to be activated. Therefore, no matter how many points were added to the liquid metals, they would all become [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatars].
The only difference was whether it was in its MK 1 or MK 2 form.
Therefore, as long as his experiment was successful, Su Yang believed that he would be able to find a way to solve this problem!
Su Yang brought the liquid metal avatars to the space within the balancing scale and placed them on the right side.
Looking at the change in the balancing scale, Su Yang finally smiled.
Although the corresponding price for these “standard special items” was not high, it was still 1 degree, which was the equivalent of nine cookies.
However, Su Yang felt that this was a path he could take at the very least.
After all, compared to 1,350 cookies, it would be much easier to accumulate 150 liquid metal avatars, right?
At the very least, Su Yang already had seven on-hand at the time. With the remaining 70 Random Points, he could create another 70 liquid metal avatars, giving it a total of 77!
Only 73 left to hit 150.
He had enough coins now, so as long as he waited for the [Advanced Store] to refresh every week, he would be able to save up the required amount of coins!
In fact... He could even make slight adjustments to all the Silver Abilities and special items he had on him!
If not, where would he go to gather all these weird and unique special items?
After all, they were not easy to find.
Even with Little Hus, it was not known how long it would take to be able to locate it.
After all, it could not be out looking for the special item everyday...
Now that he had found a way to break out of this situation, Su Yang was finally motivated. He left the space within the balancing scale and shared his joy with Little Deeny. Then, he announced his plan of breeding Quickgold Monsters and Snow Monsters to further develop the virtual space and accumulate Random Points!
The plan was to use the Quickgold Monsters and Snow Monsters as the core and purchase Random Points every week as support. Su Yang would officially move towards the global stage with six months as his time limit. He would strive to complete the strengthening of his Silver Ability within that amount of time.
Only by strengthening the [Eye of Origins] would Su Yang be able to conquer the world with ease.
After deciding on this plan, Su Yang first dealt with the other matters in his hands. He first spent over 20 [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar], then strengthened his Silver Ability [Truth Or Explosion] and [Lucky Disfiguring Brick].
After the two abilities were strengthened, the trigger condition for the [Truth Or Explosion] changed. As long as Su Yang said “Let’s play a game” to the other party, the ability would be automatically triggered.
After triggering the ability, Su Yang could choose [Truth] or [Explosion] in his heart.
If Su Yang chose [Truth], he would be able to ask the other party 10 questions. Regardless of whether the other party was lying or not, Su Yang would know the real answer.
If Su Yang chose [Explosion], Su Yang could also ask questions. If the other party refused to answer or lied, Su Yang could install an invisible bomb on them.
The bomb could be maintained for 90 days. Su Yang could check the location of the bomb at any time, and he could detonate the bomb whenever he wished.
All in all, it was just a small change, and the entire silver ability had changed from a useless ability to a great weapon.
Other than that, it was worth mentioning that in order to reduce the price, Su Yang added the additional condition of the [Explosion] on his own. In addition to the additional cost, Su Yang even added the cooldown time of the Silver Ability to 1 day.
Using this ability once a day was enough for Su Yang.
This also reduced the cost of modification to seven liquid metal avatars.
Compared to the [Truth Or Explosion], there were fewer changes to the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]. As this ability involved the law of cause and effect, Su Yang only added a simple supplementary ability: When the cooldown time was up, Su Yang could choose not to use this lucky period and store it.
So the cooldown of the lucky period would be refreshed, and Su Yang could use the lucky time twice in the future.
Similarly, it was to minimize the cost of modification.
Therefore, Su Yang paid a small price to fulfill his wish.
After making some progress in the third plan (compensating his Silver Ability), Su Yang continued with the second plan for the next few days... To separate First Building’s body from Spirit Building’s.
Little Hus had already found the balancing scale. After playing for two days, Janet returned to the Pacific Ocean to start the [Gold Mine] project. Hence, Su Yang sent Little Hus out again to look for a special item with the ability of letting First Building move freely.
Now that he had the [Half-Monster Body Lotion] and [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar], Little Hus could move freely without anyone accompanying it, so it could work its way around easier.
However, this time, it did not search for long before it found something.
That was because it discovered that among the Liquid Metal Ball that Su Yang had collected, there was an individual ball that could meet the conditions for First Building.
Hence, Su Yang obtained the [Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar MK 3] after adding points.
[Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar MK 3] was another special liquid metal avatar. The difference between it and MK 2 was that it could carry a person’s consciousness.
[Shape Shifting Liquid Metal Avatar MK 3]
Ability: This liquid metal avatar has a special “consciousness” storage space. It can allow the consciousness of a living being to exist in the avatar for a long time without the need to return to the main body. It is a special unit used for long term combat.
Restriction: Consumes 1g liquid metal per second.
Note: Actually, we are the real silver Avatar...
The ability of MK 3 was actually not very strong. It only had increased endurance, similar shapeshifting abilities like the MK 2. However, it was very compatible with the current situation First Building was in.
First Building’s condition was very special. She shared a body with Spirit Building, but because a body could only have one soul, her consciousness would automatically enter hibernation when Spirit Building was in charge of the body.
But now that she had a body that could carry her consciousness, she could temporarily leave and play using the liquid metal avatar...
Even though the usage of this avatar would consume a lot of liquid metal, Su Yang felt that he could get First Building to pay with her body. Sorry, he could have her work as repayment. Since her hobby was watching soap operas, he would let her watch soap operas while feeding the Quickgold Monsters.
This way, the Quickgold Monster would grow faster and could keep up with her consumption.
Su Yang felt that his plan was perfect.
‘I’m indeed a black-hearted person... Bah, a perfect capitalist!’
Therefore, he asked Spirit Building to temporarily return to her body so that he could talk to First Building. After obtaining a consensus, he gave the MK 3 liquid metal avatar to First Building.
From then on, First Building and Spirit Building could finally appear together. The two of them no longer needed to fight over that body.
Everything was settled perfectly.
Su Yang was about to rest and continue reading when his phone rang.
Summoning the virtual panel, Su Yang took a look and realized that it was Qu Xuan.
‘Qu Xuan is looking for me again?
‘Could he be planning to return the money?’
Su Yang picked up the phone curiously.
The call connected, and Qu Xuan’s deep voice came from the other end. “Mr. President, are you asleep?”
Su Yang was extremely familiar with the same question as half a month ago.
‘But... It’s only 11: 30am. Why would I be asleep?
Su Yang was both curious and amused. “If my work and rest times are normal, I should have woken up a few hours ago.”
Qu Xuan reacted as if he had just realized what was going on. “Oh,” he replied. Then, he said a little embarrassedly, “I’m not in a good state, so I’ve become a fool.”
Su Yang was quite concerned about his university friend. “Are you alright?”
From the two calls, Qu Xuan did not seem to be in a good state.
Qu Xuan said, “I’m... Still okay.”
After that, Qu Xuan did not seem to want to talk about this topic. He said, “President, can you... Lend me some more money?”
‘Again?’
Su Yang frowned.
He was not someone who cared about money, but... Qu Xuan asking for a loan twice in half a month was not a good thing, especially when he had yet to return the money.
Furthermore, too many friends had fallen out because of money. Su Yang did not have many friends, so he really did not want his relationship with Qu Xuan to deteriorate because of money.
Hence, while Su Yang was thinking about how to “save” this friendship, he asked, “How much do you need to borrow this time?”
Qu Xuan hesitated, then said, “Maybe... I need 400 thousand yuan.”
Su Yang was surprised. “That much?”
That was not even a fraction of Su Yang’s interest, but it was quite a lot for ordinary people.
Su Yang could not help but ask, “Don’t tell me you’re going to gamble with it?
“Or have you borrowed from loan sharks, so there are more and more interests accumulated?”
At this point, Su Yang felt that this matter was already very serious. Hence, he said sternly, “Qu Xuan, you have to come clean with me. Otherwise, I won’t lend you the money.”
Qu Xuan smiled bitterly and said, “President, I’ll definitely tell you if I can, but I really can’t...
“I can only guarantee that I’m not doing anything illegal, nor have I been scammed. I really do have other uses for it.”
Su Yang was speechless and was silent for a while.
Truth be told, Su Yang trusted Qu Xuan’s sincere tone.
However, it was still the same. Under such circumstances, Su Yang had no choice but to think of the worst. Furthermore, he did not want Qu Xuan to go astray.
Even if Qu Xuan did not want to say it, Su Yang still wanted to know what he was up to.
If it was the Su Yang from before, he might not have been able to do anything when faced with such a situation. This was because he had the special ability [Eye of Origins], which allowed him to “guess” whether someone was speaking the truth or not. He had to be able to see the other party’s emotions before he could discern the other party’s emotions. However, it could not work through the phone.
But now, he has modified this Silver Ability.
