My Items Can Upgrade

Chapter 108: The Terrifying Drought Fiend Core (Second Update)


"That's good."

Jia Weixin breathed a sigh of relief: "Let Yao Jun come over, we'll go up and take a look too. We mustn't let anything else snatch away the Drought Fiend's Spirit Monster Core."

"Alright."

Chen Xianzhi quickly used the communicator to call Yao Jun.

However, when the communicator was turned on, there was a static sound, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Jia Weixin asked.

Chen Xianzhi adjusted it and replied: "The previous explosion affected the electromagnetic waves here, but fortunately, the impact on close-range communication is not very large."

"That's good." Jia Weixin nodded; the military has high demands for timely communication, and if the communicators malfunction, a lot of information cannot be relayed in time, causing a significant impact.

Fortunately, there is a mysterious force protecting the Ancient Ruins, so the previous explosion didn't have a large impact here.

Soon, Space Carrier Yao Jun arrived under the escort of eight military Superpower Users.

...

Yang Yuan had already reached an altitude of three hundred meters, from where he could see a faint red light in the darkness below.

But because the distance was really too far, he could only see the red light and couldn't make out the thing emitting it.

So he tried to use the radar modeling of the Power Armor to check that position.

Although the radar distance of the Power Armor couldn't reach the Spirit Monster Core, it should be able to see the external environment.

However, when he actually used the radar of the Power Armor, he found that modeling was impossible.

"What's going on?"

Yang Yuan frowned slightly because in his vision, the radar map couldn't model the environment outside the Ancient Ruins.

It seemed like there was a spatial disconnect, an area of nothingness.

"Did the previous explosion turn the outside into some kind of dead zone? Or… did it affect the electromagnetic waves needed for the radar?"

He wasn't very knowledgeable about radar principles, so he wasn't sure of the reason.

While he was puzzled, suddenly three auras approached quickly.

He looked down and saw Jia Weixin, Chen Xianzhi, and the pale-faced Yao Jun slowly rising under the cover of a thin mist.

"Director Jia, you came too. Is this the Celestial Marvel 'Cloud Soaring'? Does this marvel also have flying capabilities?" Yang Yuan asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Jia Weixin explained: "The function of the Celestial Marvel 'Cloud Soaring' is not just to cool down, it can also lift people into the air. However, the cost of flying is almost ten times more than cooling; the more people, the greater the consumption, but short flights are still manageable."

Of course, the current consumption, compared to when the entire safe zone was covered, is almost negligible.

Yang Yuan's eyes lit up, nodding slightly: "Does this marvel Cloud Soaring also have an acceleration effect when encountering uphill paths?"

"That's right, but to be precise, it automatically floats up to avoid obstacles when encountering them, which makes it appear faster on uphill segments."

Jia Weixin nodded.

No wonder, when so many people traveled together, including ordinary people, they moved slowly downhill but suddenly accelerated uphill, so fast it was hard to keep up.

This marvel is interesting.

Yang Yuan, somewhat intrigued, asked: "Is this marvel Cloud Soaring for sale?"

"Uh..."

Jia Weixin was stunned, then apologized: "I'm sorry, currently our thirteenth team only has this one Celestial Marvel left. If Mr. Yang Yuan is interested, we can lend it to you for research, but we still need this marvel."

Alright.

Yang Yuan didn't insist, after all… at least for now, this marvel doesn't seem very useful to him, and it's not irreplaceable either.

The Power Armor provides flight capability, and the cooler provides cooling capability.

Replacing these functions is really simple for him.

Moreover—

The use of this Celestial Marvel 'Cloud Soaring' requires a large amount of water, and he doesn't have the Personal Space to carry that much water.

At least not now.

"That red glow should be where the Celestial-level Creature Drought Fiend's Spirit Monster Core is located."

At this point, Chen Xianzhi looked at the red glow in the darkness below and marveled: "To survive such an explosion, could this Celestial Spirit Monster Core be a Marvel?"

Jia Weixin responded: "Even if it isn't considered a Marvel itself, the Celestial Spirit Monster Core can be regarded as a Marvel to some extent."

"The director is right, the energy contained within a Celestial Spirit Monster Core could almost be considered an endless energy source for us; calling it a Marvel wouldn't be wrong."

Chen Xianzhi fully agreed with this view.

At this moment, Yao Jun took out three binoculars, handing them to Jia Weixin, Chen Xianzhi, and Yang Yuan.

"Thank you." Yang Yuan looked somewhat enviously at this Space Carrier.

This kind of Personal Space is really convenient.

With the Drought Fiend matter concluded, it looks like getting storage equipment with space capabilities will be a priority.

Thinking these thoughts, he raised the binoculars and finally saw the situation at the bottom of the Abyss.

Thanks to the light emitted by the Drought Fiend's Spirit Monster Core, he could clearly see the environment there.

In the center of a magma pool with a diameter of over a hundred meters, a dark red bead floated.

Around the magma pool, soil and rock melted quickly, and the magma pool was expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Hiss... This is terrifying, no wonder it's the Drought Fiend's Spirit Monster Core, is it trying to create a magma sea?"

Chen Xianzhi, too, looked through his binoculars in that direction, exclaiming: "Mr. Yang Yuan, do you have a way to retrieve such a thing?"

"Not sure, I'll only know after trying."

Yang Yuan didn't make any promises.

Because he was currently far from Celestial level, unless he had an item with initially high quality, he would need to slowly upgrade it.

"It's a pity Leader Chen isn't here; otherwise, we could ask him. He can make quite a few little gadgets."

Jia Weixin commented.

"Where did Leader Chen go?" Yang Yuan asked, puzzled.

"He was blown away by the previous strong wind, and before I came, he hadn't been found yet. I'll ask again."

Chen Xianzhi said, taking out the communicator once more to inquire with search and rescue personnel.

However, soon he frowned and put away the communicator: "Still not found, and... including some unlucky ones who smashed their heads, plus those of us here, we've only found over five thousand people. I'm afraid those missing ones may have been caught in other Overlapping Spaces."

Everyone knew by now that there were many spaces within the Ancient Ruins.

The previous super explosion surely caused fluctuations in this ancient relic's space, and it's not surprising for people to fall into other Overlapping Spaces.

Upon hearing this, Jia Weixin and Yang Yuan both frowned slightly.

Then Yao Jun spoke: "Before I came over, they had already been using the Arbitrary Gate created by Mr. Yang Yuan to open those spaces. A few were found earlier, so they should be able to retrieve those who disappeared."

"That's good."

Jia Weixin breathed a sigh of relief; others aside, if Leader Chen were also in trouble, it would be a huge loss.

After all, even before Earth integrated into this world, Leader Chen was a scientist of academician rank. Now, even stronger, he is the head of the research department of the entire thirteenth team.

If such a person were to go missing, it would be absolutely unacceptable to them.

"Has the Arbitrary Gate opened an exit from the Ancient Ruins?" Yang Yuan asked.

Chen Xianzhi regretfully replied: "The number of spaces inside this Ancient Ruins is overwhelming; so far, an exit hasn't been opened yet."

Yang Yuan nodded, pondering. If the military has been using the Arbitrary Gate, its experience should be enough to level up to twenty-one. After returning, he can upgrade the Arbitrary Gate once more.
