Chapter 410: 410
Li Yao laughed and replied, “It’s nothing, just a kind of useless potion, given as a token of gratitude to the Golden Puppet. It’s nothing valuable, just a small token of appreciation.”

Miller, of course, knew what was inside the test tube, and felt overjoyed. His investment had definitely paid off. The Ancient God’s Blood was not something one could obtain just anywhere.

Even though it was low-grade Blood of the Ancient God, the divine substance it contained had a very wide range of applications, and was a priceless treasure.

How could this be worthless? And judging by the size of the test tube, there was a lot of it. His sincerity was evident.

“How polite of you, very polite.” Miller happily collected the Blood of the Ancient God. How could he refuse such a treasure? If it were to circulate in the market, it would definitely end up in the hands of a master craftsman.

Although he held a high rank within the clan, he could never get his hands on the Blood of the Ancient God. When he saw Li Yao’s generosity, Miller’s smile softened a bit. After all, this master had been very kind to him, and he was well aware that gratitude is meant to be repaid. This was someone worth befriending.

The two exchanged knowing smiles, then Li Yao took out two chips, explaining, “These are two chips I obtained. However, the third portal was occupied by an ancient God. After killing the God, I was heavily depleted, so I came back without looking for the fourth one.”

“That is more than enough. Disrupting the plans of the Ancient God is a great fortune already. I heard that it was you, Master, who exposed the Ancient God’s plot, and tricked those timid Goblins into it to kill him. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable if the Ancient God had time to develop.” Miller put the chip into a machine.

“It was simply by chance. Breaking the seal of the Ancient God set by the Titans is a big deal, and it would be worth it even if it posed some risk. I would be grateful if they didn’t blame me for making unilateral decisions and causing many masters to sacrifice.”

“Master, you’re being humble. There’s no claim of a fight with Ancient Gods without casualties. Those clan members who have died fighting due to the Ancient Gods, their souls will find rest.” Miller changed the subject. “These two chips are still yours, Master. I just need a moment to duplicate what is inside, just a quarter of an hour.”

“Then I’m sorry for the trouble. I’m also interested in studying the technology and language of the Titans,” Li Yao said with a smile.

“Master is joking. You managed to unlock the three most difficult portals, which shows your true power. I would even ask Master to teach about Ancient Gods and Titan languages.” Miller opened another room. “Please come in, Master. This is my collection room. It’s a bit simple, but it took hard work. Whatever you like in here- you can pick three items.”

Li Yao scanned the room. This was clearly his private laboratory, filled with many items.

Here, there were materials, blueprints, potions, and gemstones, but few could be considered top-notch. Li Yao knew the really good stuff was likely stored away.

But being able to see these already pleased Li Yao. Even if some are advanced, they’re useless to him now.

Moreover, as a reborn individual, he has multiple ways to acquire good items. Now, what mattered most was a tank-type Mechanical Puppet, with a few supportive items.

“This laboratory looks great,” Li Yao said as he continued to look around.

“Didn’t Master plan to settle here? I have specifically arranged a spacious residence for Master, which also has a laboratory. Once completed, it certainly won’t be inferior to mine.” It’s clear that Miller wanted to win Li Yao over. “Please go ahead and choose, Master. If you’re still not satisfied, I have some other things stored in the warehouse too, which would surely meet your expectations.”

Lastly, Li Yao walked over to the blueprints section, remarking, “That’s enough, that’s enough. My engineering level is low, I can’t control highly advanced stuff.”

“These blueprints are all things that I’ve learned from, some of them are drawn by me. They should come in handy for Master.” Miller wasn’t surprised at all to see Li Yao looking at the blueprints in the end–to them, blueprints hold priority. He’d make the same choice himself.

“This…” Li Yao took out a blueprint.

“The basic structure of a Mechanical Puppet. It appears that the Master plans to make a Mechanical Puppet for himself.” Miller replied, “This one’s not bad. Although the Master’s current strength is not enough, it will definitely be useful in a little while. It’s very practical to start learning now.”

The so-called blueprint for the basic structure of a Puppet includes some scattered components and circuitry. Learning this would definitely bolster Li Yao’s abilities in creating Mechanical Pets. It’s a very practical boost in engineering.

“Then I’ll choose this for the second one,” Li Yao gladly declared. He hadn’t expected Miller to let him choose this blueprint as well.

Helper Machine Bed Blueprint

“The Master really knows how to pick. I only have this one copy. It may not be high-level, but only a Great Grandmaster can draw it. With this and Master’s spiritual power, you’ll be unstoppable.” Miller flattered.

“Hardly, I’m used to working alone and don’t really want an assistant, so I have to resort to this,” Li Yao brushed it off. The fact was, there was no such blueprint in the Dark Camp.

The goblins would rather amass low-level engineers than use these high-precision devices. After all, they’re all focused on profit. Even a copper coin is a big deal to them, let alone these expensive machine beds.

“This will be the third.” Li Yao took out the last blueprint.

“Why would Master choose such a massive war machine?” Miller questioned curiously.

Li Yao put away the Spider Tank Blueprint and replied, “I’ve always dreamed of being a grandmaster of martial engineering since childhood, but never had the opportunity. Being able to learn how to make a Spider Tank is a way of fulfilling my dream. This blueprint is precious—if it turns out to be too extravagant, I can pick another.”

“Not at all, I’m also eager to see the Spider Tank that Master will create.”

“Haha, I’m eagerly anticipating it too,” declared Li Yao, his enthusiasm clearly genuine. The Spider Tank is a type of large-scale war machine that, naturally, could be transformed into an intelligent Mechanical Puppet.

Li Yao originally intended to settle for a blueprint of a Mechanical War Bear. He didn’t expect to find a blueprint for a Mechanical Tank—it was an unexpected delight. Now he was eager to return to his Undercity lab, gather materials and start building.

Once out of the collection room, having obtained the chips, Li Yao couldn’t wait to leave. He declined Miller’s invitation to stay for dinner, and Miller had no choice but to arrange for someone to escort him to his residence.

What disappointed Li Yao was the absence of a deed. Otherwise, this place would have truly belonged to him. But he knew Miller hadn’t fully trusted him yet. Nonetheless, his mind wasn’t on this at the moment. He whisked himself back to Undercity using his Hearthstone…
