Chapter 981: Teamup 1

All the way back, Garen kept thinking about the question earlier.

With the aid of resources, he could be able to face more challenges stronger and faster. He could also progress faster if he had sufficient resources within the short period of time — this was the advantage. However, doing so would bring rise to many enemies and dangers everywhere. More so, he would also face the danger of an unstable foundation.

Fighting was the only way to rise rapidly in a short period of time.

All the way down to the central mountain villas, the trio could see flying ships in the distance circling the snow peaks. Those were the hosts of other snow peaks communicating.

A few of the flying ships were flying towards their direction. One of them especially had an extremely clear target and was flying towards the stop at the bottom of the snow peak.

Bainster let out a sign of acknowledgment when he saw the flying ship as if he could recognize it.

“Is it someone you know?” Garen whispered.

“Yeah, it’s my friend’s flying ship but I don’t know what’s up.” Bainster nodded, “Let me have a look first.”

“Alright, just call out for me if you need any help,” Garen replied lightly.

For the past five years, Bainster had been helping him take care of various transactions and services, collect materials, handle social matters, arrange schedules, and collect data and information. This was something him and Hillco were in charge of all the while, and it was the main reason to why Garen trusted the both of them more. With the both of them handling most of his matters, he had so much more time to practice.

There were hundreds of snowy peaks in Scarlet Snow Sect; most of them were owned by second disciples. Such delegation, such system, were almost similar to the records seen in ancient mythologies. The behavior of powerhouses within the sect was similar to a secret combat powerhouse, and not at all an Energy Machinist from the Technology World.

If Garen had once suspected that the secret combat powerhouses had come to the Scarlet Mountain sect before, he was now a hundred percent sure of his suspicion. Scarlet Mountain sect was basically established by a secret combat powerhouse, and there were definitely secret combat powerhouses who used to come to this world.

Due to the fact that the Cold Scarlet Snow secret method was just a simply changed name from the Cold Scarlet Snow Technique, the eighteen levels would completely match the level of the Living Secret Technique and Dying Secret Technique. However, this was the first time Garen had witnessed the Dying Secret Technique of such a high level. After all, in general, the secret techniques he had always been practicing were considered the Dying Secret Technique.

Back in the villa area, Garen took a glance, by habit, at the villa above where the windows were pitch black and no light could be seen. Though sure enough, a pair of eyes flickered and disappeared instantly. It did not seem humane as it gave off an eerie sense of feeling.

Opening the doors of his villa, Garen was just about to walk out when suddenly, he heard a gust of soft wind behind. When he turned around, his eyes swept the surroundings with a trace of vigilance.

A young lady with red hair was standing calmly behind him, watching him. Upon knowing that she was noticed, the lady shot him a gentle, sweet smile.

“Mr Garen, so you’re back so early today?”

Garen nodded his head and replied with a polite smile.

“Ms Monica, you’re early too.”

Monica nodded with a smile.

“You’re welcomed to be a guest here anytime.”

“Unfortunately I’ve been busy recently, but if there’s ever a chance I will definitely accept your offer,” Garen replied casually. He had always felt that this lady was somewhat weird. He had heard from the second disciples once that some people never had the chance to set a steady foundation when they were young due to the restriction of resources. Therefore, they were unable to reach higher levels. Once they reached their limits, some would start running prohibited experiments that would cause them to lose their minds. Garen had a feeling this woman was one of those people.

Both of them exchanged a few words before Monica retreated to her own villa.

Her movements were swift, and in a blink of an eye, he could hear the sound of her villa’s door shut.

Seeing that the door was shut, Garen then only walked to his own door. Hillco had already gone back to her own place. Besides the occasional workers sent by Hillco to clean the villa, she usually lived in a separate villa.

The white hall was clean and spotless. The floor could literally be used as a mirror.

Garen held out his hand and smacked the wall. He then walked into another big hall.

The lights in the hall switched on automatically without a sound, and a cup of hot ginger tea appeared on the table in front of the sofa.

This world did not have such a thing; it was all just Garen who had searched for multiple materials all over the place before settling with a plant similar to Ginger, with the same medicine property. So he decided to just use it to make tea. The taste was somewhat identical in which he considered as a form of nostalgia for his previous life.

Sitting down and sipping his ginger tea, he flipped open his notebook on the table and began to find out more information about what the twelfth host, Joey, said.

The insides of the Scarlet Snow Sect was slightly complicated. Most of the transactions were sales of different materials and Energy Machine Imprint objects. However, most of them were premature and the flying imprints were rare, making them extremely expensive too.

Something as big as the ranks of the snowy peaks was of course something easy to find out more about.

“The top ten peaks will have the opportunity to select an award corresponding to the value of the prize deserved according to the prize list published above.” It did not take long for Garen to find out the description of the ranks of the snowy peaks.

This was the information Joey gave.

This was exactly what he had imagined. Joey was for sure a cruel one and he was ranked twelfth in the top hosts of snowy peaks. He had killed over hundreds and he was only twenty-eight years old, one of the elite powerhouses nurtured on the grounds of Scarlet Snow Sect. He still had some sort of reputation in the eyes of second disciples.

Garen straight away stole another glance at the first displayed portrait. Similar to a lot of other cases, the first familiar face was still Carthage.

“The prodigy who had always looked down at us among the entire Scarlet Snow Sect, Carthage.” He shook his head lightly. Carthage was someone who did not need to compete for planets, yet he could be chosen straight away as a prodigy of a certain new planet. Even if he was to compete with disciples from a larger sect, they stood no chance against him. Now that he was entering the resonating phase in accepting the third disciple exam, he was a definite pass if nothing goes wrong.

If Garen was to be asked who were the valued prodigies recruited from the central in the entire Scarlet Snow Sect, Carthage was definitely the one. He was the hope of Scarlet Snow Sect, the hope to rehabilitate the Fermium Cloud Tower.

The Fermium Cloud Tower used to be the symbol of Scarlet Snow Sect’s peak, but now they do not even have the qualifications to enter the tower. Without a Level Nine Elite powerhouse, there was no way they could enter the Fermium Cloud Tower.

After retrieving the information he roughly needed, including the information regarding the Winter Night Wolf, Garen cleared the history and left for this biochemical room.

Two huge Big Wild Wolves were crouched down at the doorstep of the biochemical room. Once the door was opened, two wolves as strong as bulls wagged their tails eagerly when they saw Garen.

“Here you go.” Garen smiled and took out a few pieces of black dried meat from his pocket for the two wolves, letting them tear the meat apart and share among themselves.

He then walked to the front of the aquamarine biochemical pool and sat in front of the control computer of the biochemical pool. As he progressed into Level Four, even the increment effect of the biochemical pool increased. Every level of the NIS training method provided the biochemical 0.5 level of defense and speed. The NIS rank within the Scarlet Snow Sect was not considered as low at all. Therefore, Garen had no need to change his training methods.

“I’ve finally reached Level Four, which means every single one of my biochemical creatures will have a double rank increment of 0.5*4.” Garen stared at the Big Wild Wolves as they gobbled down the dried meat. He then used his Mind Force to command them to go back to the biochemical pool.

With the sound of water splashing, both the Big Wild Wolves jumped down into the biochemical without hesitation, submerging themselves into the blue nutrient solution.

Garen started to run his fine-tune work by simply adding his Energy Machine Imprint and Willpower into the biochemical pool. With just that, everything would be strengthened naturally by the imprint over time.

The Big Wild Wolves were rolling about in the biochemical pool, yelling in pain as their fur began to shed. Blood red muscle veins appeared on their body and started absorbing the nutrient solution.

The scene lasted for at least ten minutes before the fur of both the Big Wild Wolves began to grow.

They crawled out to the edge of the biochemical pool and shook off the nutrient solution from their bodies. Their bodies were slightly distorted, emitting a slight force of a Level Three Willpower Field.

“Level Three? Not bad, not bad.” Garen stood up and smiled in satisfaction.

Cannon fodder creatures of a Level Four Energy Machinist were usually of Level One standard. Even if they were strengthened by a Distorted Seed, they would only be strengthened by three times, which would put them somewhere in between Level One and Two. That was the original standard of a Big Wild Wolf.

However, now that he had reached Level Four and had enough nutrient solution to carry out reformations, the Big Wild Wolves produced had managed to obtain an increment and had the power of a Level Three Mech.

“Even though they seem like they have the power of a Level Three Mech, we still need to test the effectiveness through combat.” Garen was just like any other Energy Machinists, except the fact that he had the Distorted Seed which was able to cause a triple increment of his cannon fodder creatures, almost exceeding a Level One extent by far — that was his ultimate secret. However, this was related to the Living Secret Technique. So he could not risk other people finding out or else it would be impossible to explain.

Only the elite version of experiment objects by an ordinary Energy Machinist was able to have a battle force similar to a Mech of the same rank. Whereas ordinary cannon fodder creatures were usually at least two ranks lower than the creator itself.

However, Garen’s cannon fodder creatures actually had the power similar to an experiment object. It would be extremely bothersome if word got out. This was only something that could possibly happen to those prodigies from bigger sects because they used more optimized materials and skills, unlike Garen who used his Distorted Seeds. Not to mention Garen’s Energy Machine Imprint was just a normally weak type used by the investigation army. To be able to strengthen the investigation army to this level, Garen was probably the only one who could do it. The prodigies from bigger sects would not even waste their time to strengthen such garbage.

After strengthening both Big Wild Wolves, Garen left the biochemical pool and went to his own laboratory.

Inside the laboratory, a cylindrical yellow bronze platform was floating in the air. Subtle electric arcs flashed from time to time at the smooth surface.

This was Garen’s experimental platform that was used to create the elite version of tools. It basically consisted of all the resources Garen had been retrieving from the Scarlet Snow Sect for the past five years.

An ice-blue gigantic wolf was crouched on the experimental platform. This wolf was so much more powerful than an ordinary Big Wild Wolf. Its entire body was poked with all kinds of tubes. Just a glance of it could ache one’s heart.

Garen made his way towards the computer by the experimental platform, and started pulling out information and monitoring statistics.

“My experimental platform can only strengthen a Big Wild Wolf to a Level One standard. That’s the most simple experimental platform and it has cost me so many resources already. Being an Energy Machinist really costs a lot of money…”

He sighed softly. If he wanted to fight for a place, he would have to go out and kill the disciples of the Dragon Eye Sect. It seemed like he had no choice but to use his experiment subject that he had been nurturing for two years.

Now that he had reached Level Four, his Willpower instantly enhanced the ice-blue gigantic wolf’s automatic reformation.

The reformation only lasted about two minutes.

‘Charging energy furnace… Ice Wolf Number One, activated…’

An icy woman’s voice was heard from the experimental platform which was the sound device installed by Garen later on.
