Xiao Huangji A Chou said weakly, "Master, me too... Sixi says he's exhausted too..."

He stared thoughtfully at the Bronze Material Box, which was about the size of a carry-on Suitcase. "...A Smart Weapon can launch Mental Strength Attacks?"
Xia Chujian was surprised as well. "Huh?! What it did just now was a Mental Strength
