[Anchor, don't go, Baiyi is not there. Don't ask me how I know, just wanted to go ahead of you but didn't see him.]
Demacia saw this comment and couldn't help but curse: [Damn! How can you do this? No wonder those anchors always say not to stream while doing tasks, I thought it was a distraction issue. Turns out they're guarding against people like you, lucky for me I've got a good impression with Baiyi, unlike you sly ones, hehe…]
As the countdown hit zero, Demacia's perspective gradually shifted. He immediately took out his map and marked the previous location.
Then he summoned the Cannibal Flower to retrieve his equipment.
Just as the Cannibal Flower was about to bite his head off, he decisively canceled the summon, exhaled a long breath, and with a grin, made his way to the Inner City District: "Such a trivial Cannibal Flower, easy peasy!"
Upon entering the Inner City, after some thought, he decided to go to a phone shop. Despite feeling the pinch, he spent five Gold Coins on a legitimate phone and then dialed the number given to him by the Guard Brigade.
After a few rings, the call was connected. Slightly nervous, he spoke: "Mr. Baiyi, this is Demacia. I noticed something, a place called the Dark Kingdom is planning to attack Dongwu City and is setting up a Space Transmission Array within Federation territory!"
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After finishing the call, Demacia said with a bit of pride: "See, that's influence. Number? How could it be exposed? Once you have Baiyi's goodwill, you can ask for it yourself. Without his favor, calling to bother is basically asking to be killed down to Level 1."
Interacting with the comments, Demacia arrived at Dawn Potion Shop.
Inside the shop was only a little Human Race girl quietly reading a book. In front of her was a small table with a star map and a head-sized Crystal Ball on it, seemingly for divination.
Noticing him, the girl looked up and showed a pretty smile: "May I ask who you are looking for?"
"I'm looking for Mr. Baiyi. He asked me to go directly to the lab." Demacia answered politely.
"Has the boss come out?" Luoning was a bit surprised, then pointed to the metal door on the right: "The lab is over there."
Demacia walked to the door and knocked: "Mr. Baiyi, it's Demacia."
Buzz~
The moment he spoke, the massive metal door slowly opened, a few thumb-sized Black Spheres flashed by.
Demacia quickly entered, and upon entering the second metal door, he was utterly stunned by what he saw.
Around a young man, thumb-sized Black Spheres were floating in an extremely orderly manner, sometimes forming a building, sometimes forming a giant human arm, or some Eight Trigrams patterns, instantly bringing to mind the phrase: "Accumulating sand to form a tower."
The comments in Demacia's live stream fell silent for a moment, then exploded with exclamations. In that instant, the number of players wanting to become Alchemists increased significantly.
Baiyi turned and smiled, saying: "Take a seat."
As soon as he spoke, the dense spheres quickly formed into a steel chair behind Demacia.
Feeling a bit flattered, Demacia reached out to touch the chair and instinctively used an Identification Technique.
[Name: Magnetic Mechanism.
Grade: Silver.
Durability: 300/300.
Equipment Effect: Micromechanical controls freely with Spiritual Power.
Equipment Requirements: Spiritual Power 30+.
Introduction: Have you seen ants? A single ant is weak, but what about ten thousand of them? A hundred thousand?
Price: 0.1 Gold Coin.]
Demacia swallowed hard, excitedly sitting down, this price seemed... affordable for players!
Baiyi raised his hand, and Demacia's chair moved sideways next to Baiyi.
He was quite satisfied with this effect. The Magnetic Mechanism was much harder than ordinary alloys and extremely cheap to produce, with ten thousand Gold Coins, he could create twenty thousand of them.
And he now had three Space Rings of one hundred cubic meters each, enough to carry hundreds of thousands of Magnetic Mechanisms. If he could fill a Space Ring, his combat power would increase exponentially.
Plus, with the microscopically invisible Gold-devouring Insects, even opponents at the Golden Upper Tier would struggle to win against such a mechanical storm, although prepared mages wouldn't count.
The current quantity was still too small, having manufactured only over thirty thousand Ten Thousand Times Mechanisms and more than three thousand Gold-devouring Insects, along with dozens of Mechanical Mosquitoes in fifteen days.
Although he now had some combat power, it still fell short of the storm Baiyi desired.
"The thing you mentioned on the phone, could you describe it in more detail?" Baiyi asked with a smile, seeing the shocked expression on Demacia's face.
If possible, he didn't mind showcasing the battle style of an Alchemist more. If more players chose to become Alchemists, then the player production line might have a chance.
"Uh, it's like this." Demacia hurriedly took out a map and spread it out: "I was planning to take the train to Chaoyang City, then...."
As he described, Baiyi's heart sank a little, the Dark Kingdom.... so soon?
After pondering briefly, he headed out: "Let's go, let's take a look."
Demacia stood up to follow, the mechanical chair suddenly disassembled into tiny metal spheres and swiftly flew into Baiyi's hand, disappearing into a ring.
He felt a bit envious, a Space Ring, such high-end stuff, pity it wasn't usable by players. After all, if equipment explodes, it just explodes, but if a high-cost Space Ring is lost, it truly is a huge loss.
"Roar~"
The roar of a dragon echoed, a Mechanical Giant Dragon descended from the sky, Baiyi's powerful Spiritual Power lifted the two of them into the air as the dragon spread its wings, suddenly accelerating to Mach 5.
Amidst the loud sonic boom, they flew in the direction of Chaoyang City.
Watching the ground blur from the speed, Demacia couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Baiyi, how fast is this dragon? I feel like without this shield I'd be torn apart by the air."
"Mach 5."
Demacia was a bit taken aback, over a thousand seven hundred meters per second: "Awesome!"
Magnetic Mechanism, Intercontinental Missile, Network, Mechanical Giant Dragon, could it be that Alchemist is the meta answer?
Seeing the flood of "awesome" comments and expressions of wanting to become Alchemists, Demacia couldn't resist typing back: [Think carefully, guys, Baiyi is a boss, are you a boss too?]
The comments fell silent for a moment, then resumed even more intense discussions.
Demacia stopped paying attention to the comments. Although a bit disappointed not having received a mission, Baiyi always gave him rewards after helping him, so he wasn't in a hurry.
Enjoying the scenery, soon, they arrived at the barren land, and the dragon started to decelerate, circling overhead.
"Mr. Baiyi, it's over there, about ten kilometers from the railway tracks." Demacia pointed to a desolate area.
Baiyi covered his eyes with Spiritual Power, observing carefully but found nothing. He pondered for a moment.
Stopping the dragon, his Spiritual Power propelled him swiftly to the area Demacia indicated, pulling out a potion from his Space Ring and pouring it down.
His Spiritual Power instantly hit the purple liquid into a mist, controlling the potion to cover the area.
Soon under the effects of the potion, intricate engravings began to appear intermittently, and the space started to distort.
Magic Teleportation Array!
Baiyi considered for a moment, thinking about what the Dark Kingdom's people said, the second war zone....
After reflecting, Baiyi took out another potion, applying it in the same way to cover the area, neutralizing it, and the area's abnormalities gradually disappeared.
Dozens of Mechanical Mosquitoes flew out from the Space Ring, quickly landing on each blade of grass in the barren field. The millimeter-scale mechanisms didn't attract any attention.
The mosquitoes' extremely intricate eyes surveyed the surroundings, monitoring everything happening there.
Invading the Dark Kingdom bore risks, but knowing the enemies' arrival site was different; once the monitors were in place, even masses wouldn't withstand the Intercontinental Missile bombardment.
[Connecting Mechanical Mosquitoes, establishing a monitoring zone.]
[Okay, the monitoring zone is established, 36 mosquitoes deployed, no abnormalities reported.]
Baiyi flew back onto the Bone Dragon's back, and with a flap of its wings, the dragon flew towards Dongwu City.
"Your information was helpful this time. What reward would you like?" Baiyi asked, feeling a bit relaxed.
Demacia thought of something and somewhat embarrassedly asked: "Uh, does Mr. Baiyi understand anything about plant life?"
