The Clever Fox X Space Equipment

Inside the camp.

Kevin, who had returned, had already started taking out his haul from his Pocket Flower.

Although everyone was more interested in asking about the egg he was carrying on his back.

But when Kevin took out a Milk Brick, everyone looked over.

It's not what I imagined.

"Milk Brick? From Thick White Milk?"

Men Qi asked first.

Although it is called milk, Thick White Milk is essentially only similar in color. In terms of taste and other aspects, it has little to do with milk.

Surprisingly, this product also contains Milk Brick.

It actually makes it look more like milk.

Kevin nodded.

Men Qi was somewhat helpless after receiving a definite answer.

"The Thick White Milk was already too rich in nutrients, and now it's turned into Milk Brick. It seems I'll have to dilute it properly every time I use it."

The unique taste of Milk Brick is more of a secondary benefit, made for convenient transportation and storage.

When they thought they only had this one piece, Kevin took out one piece after another from his pocket.

They just piled up twelve pieces right in front of them like that.

"So much?"

Biscuit exclaimed, her eyes wide.

This is far more than they thought.

Melusina walked over to examine it directly, and after just a few glances at her hands, she was certain.

"It would take at least 500 to 600 kilograms of Thick White Milk to coagulate this one Milk Brick."

She's a pastry chef, and she's made desserts using Thick White Milk; she knows it very well.

Upon hearing her say that, everyone did the math and realized that there must be six tons here.

"Huh? Six tons?"

Bianluoke stood to the side, shocked by what everyone was saying.

He vaguely remembered the Thick White Milk Kevin had stolen the first time.

At that time, it only contained a small bucket.

The bucket wasn't even full.

They weighed the stolen Thick White Milk at the time, and it totaled only 5.4 kilograms.

It took them several months to use up just this little bit, and some of it was wasted due to experimental needs.

There are over twenty of them here, all of them top -Nen ability users, and they have extremely high nutritional needs during their training.

They also use the Thick White Milk for other things.

But that's how it is.

It took several months.

We haven't used it all up yet; it's almost empty, so we're getting more.

And now.

There were six tons in front of me.

Instead of being overwhelmed by the Biscuit suddenly realized something and slapped her forehead.

"Wait a minute, I remember you only grabbed a handful of Unmanned Stone, right?"

That one throw would yield at most a dozen or so.

"Yes, I took thirteen in total."

"Doesn't that mean you replace one when it's almost ready?" Men Qi asked in surprise from the side.

Kevin nodded and shrugged.

Everyone fell silent.

It's not that I feel like I lost out, but rather that I feel like I gained.

And they were thinking that the value of an Unmanned Stone seemed to be much greater than they had imagined.

But ironically, they don't lack Unmanned Stone.

Unlike the Thick White Milk, the Unmanned Stone can be obtained by anyone else.

Moreover, a lot can be obtained simply by digging.

If we follow the theory that the Unmanned Stone are the lifeblood of the mountain range, then there are far more Unmanned Stone in the entire Unmanned Stone Range than we imagine.

In addition, there are the conditions for the excavators.

In the foreseeable future, it would be impossible for humans to excavate the Unmanned Stone in less than several hundred years.

This is still an extreme estimate after acceleration.

"The trading method I use is----"

Kevin took this opportunity to talk to everyone about his conversation and trade with the Long-haired Creature Lord in the Golden Grassland.

After hearing this, everyone fell even more silent.

"Just like Tuck and the others, they don't have the concept of trade; they're more about exchanging, and what they get in exchange is considered roughly equal by the other party."

So simple and honest.

For these powerful and intelligent beings, deception seems to be largely unnecessary.

Ten pills for ten dollars.

The extra "Unmanned Stone" was something Kevin added to cultivate a good relationship with.

After all, Thick White Milk is undoubtedly a very important source of hope for humankind.

That's equivalent to eleven pills being able to be exchanged for five tons of Thick White Milk.

On their previous digging trip, they unearthed several hundred of them.

And they are all different sizes.

What they exchanged were still the most average-sized ones.

"In other words, based on what you've seen before, the electrical discharge from such an Unmanned Stone could last for at least several decades."

Qiduo held the small, Unmanned Stone in her hand, feeling somewhat wistful.

Such a small thing can Emission such a large amount of electricity.

"What about the egg?"

Kim was clearly more curious about that.

After Kevin casually recounted this unexpected experience, everyone nodded in understanding.

"However, judging from the Phoenix's ecological environment, there are Volcano areas at least further north in our direction."

However, since there are no Volcano areas nearby, it may be a long time before the egg is reborn and hatches.

I wonder how long it will take for this Phoenix on my body to sustain me.

Kevin was unaware of this aspect of ecology, and the Phoenix on his body wasn't intelligent enough to engage in more detailed communication.

After a brief explanation, everyone went about their own business.

After all, there was a sudden increase in the amount of Thick White Milk.

Kevin also cut off a small piece and brought it back to the Pharmaceutical Room.

He also needs to process it into a medicine.

Now that his Nen power has surpassed one million, he can create potions to further increase his Nen power.

A few days later.

"Call me 'sister'!"

Melusina said, holding the Three-Tails in her arms.

The Three-Tails Fox stared at Melusina, shaking its tail and head.

"Sister~ Meow."

"Very clever."

Melusina smiled happily and rubbed her face against the Three-Tails.

So cute.

It has an appearance that perfectly matches human aesthetics, is intelligent, has a strong learning ability, and can also speak.

The Three-Tails could clearly sense Melusina's affection for her, and a very human-like expression of happiness appeared on its face.

In just a few days, the Three-Tails completely adapted to the environment and no longer trembled with fear as it had when it first arrived.

And because there were about twenty people in the camp interacting with each other.

After a short period of adjustment, they quickly began to spontaneously learn more words.

And it is rapidly adapting to the way humans communicate.

They learned the behaviors, actions, and even facial expressions.

"Why are you, a fox, meowing?"

Kevin, who was adjusting the medicine nearby, suddenly turned around and asked.

"Why can't foxes call like that?" Three-Tails asked, its voice still that of a child.

"Because that's not how foxes call."

"Don't know."

Three-Tails didn't understand why she was a fox; she didn't have that much knowledge.

However, after thinking for a moment, she said, "If Three-Tails is a fox, then the cry of Three-Tails fox is the cry of a fox."

She has begun to learn the logical relationships between human speech and comprehension.

Upon hearing this, Melusina nuzzled the Three-Tails tightly again and stroked its fur.

"That's absolutely right, Three-Tails, you're so smart."

Melusina is now head over heels in love with her.

"Yes, yes, the Three-Tails is smart." The Three-Tails said, nodding its head and shaking its head, its face even showing a hint of pride.

Kevin thought that in another day or two, the Three-Tails should be able to fully understand human conversation, and then he could ask it about its sense of smell for treasures.

Sure enough, it didn't take more than two days.

The Three-Tails has completely learned human communication methods and can now speak fluently with humans.

Of course, it was also related to the fact that everyone in the camp was very interested in her and kept talking to her.

The others patiently answered the questions asked by the Three-Tails.

It's like teaching a child.

Kevin held her in his arms.

How did you smell the Thick White Milk in my Pocket Flower before?

Upon hearing this question, the Three-Tails and then sniffed the air.

"That's how I smell it; it's everywhere here."

As he spoke, the Three-Tails even showed an excited expression.

"So how far can you smell it? Can you only smell the food you need? After all, there's so much food here, you can't possibly eat it all, can you?"

"How far? Three-Tails needs to think about it... Hmm... the smell here... I was here before..."

Three-Tails briefly explained that when she and Kevin returned, they had already smelled the treasures piled up in the camp from somewhere.

"Is it that far?"

Kevin calculated that it was about five or six hundred kilometers, which was quite far.

"Do these treasures taste different to you?"

Kevin asked, carrying the other person as they walked around the Pharmaceutical Room, where various materials were stored.

"They're all different. You can smell the edible ones, the inedible ones, and the dangerous ones."

Kevin held the Three-Tails and pointed it out.

She can tell how full the Three-Tails is by smelling what it can eat.

The most intense flavor is the Thick White Milk, followed by the Unmanned Stone.

"You can eat this?" Kevin asked, somewhat surprised, while holding the Unmanned Stone.

"Yes, but it's dangerous, so I won't eat it."

Does that mean it's inedible?

For the Three-Tails, this might be blood, only it contains far too violent energy.

Blood can be consumed, but its energy content is too high; consuming it would likely result in immediate death.

Just like eating something poisonous can kill you, but that doesn't mean you can't eat it at all.

Perhaps this is the logic behind the Three-Tails.

Then they made her smell other things.

Most of what's inedible consists of minerals, soil, and special grasses and leaves.

This includes the Black Orb they obtained earlier, and the few Phoenix feathers Kevin carried.

The most precious of these is the Black Orb, made from S-Rank materials.

However, the Three-Tails couldn't accurately distinguish these things.

She can smell them, and she can also judge the intensity of these things by their smell.

But that's the limit.

However, she could still smell danger.

It's definitely a treasure-hunting machine, and one that can even detect Danger Level.

However, the Danger Level is determined by her own assessment.

It cannot be applied to other people.

"If you can smell danger, then why did you steal my things in the first place? Aren't I dangerous enough?"

Kevin stared at the Three-Tails and asked.

The Three-Tails leaped out and sat down in front of Kevin, its three tails swishing back and forth.

"It's dangerous, but good food is more important."

I understand.

Kevin was carrying six tons of Thick White Milk with him at the time.

And Thick White Milk is undoubtedly the best supplement for all living things that need to obtain nutrients.

Not to mention there are so many.

Even if Kevin is dangerous, he's nothing compared to the thing he carries around.

If successful, the rewards will outweigh the risks.

As creatures of the Dark Continent, they are naturally daring and willing to fight.

So the Three-Tails immediately placed the bet.

Then he lost the bet.

Of course, in hindsight, it was a winning bet, but on a different level.

"From now on, you can call any flavor like this a treasure, and you can add prefixes like 'edible' and 'inedible' to it."

Hearing Kevin's words, the Three-Tails nodded.

"Clear!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Three-Tails sniffed the air.

"The inedible treasure walked over without any danger."

"You're quite good at making sentences."

With a smile, Kevin said something and looked towards the door.

Sure enough, there was a knock on the door, and Jin walked in.

The first thing I saw when I came in was the Three-Tails being held by Kevin.

"Ah, it's that talkative guy."

"Hmm?" Kevin looked at the Three-Tails and tapped her head.

"Why do you give people nicknames?"

Three-Tails broke free and, following Kevin's arm, hopped onto his shoulder in two steps.

He whispered in his ear.

"Because he talks so much, he keeps trying to talk to me, it's so annoying. That short lady called him a chatterbox."

A talking creature from the Dark Continent naturally piqued Jin's interest, so he kept trying to talk to the Three-Tails Beast.

Even the Three-Tails was getting a little annoyed with him.

Because he rarely answers the Three-Tails' questions, but instead keeps asking the Three-Tails all sorts of questions that it can't answer, it's incomprehensible and very annoying.

"I can hear you, you stupid fox."

Jin glared at the fox; they were whispering to each other at such close range.

However, this fox is becoming more and more human-like.

It seems that in the Dark Continent, highly intelligent beings are easily influenced by human civilization.

Here's another example.

"Stupid fox? 'Stupid' is an insult, right, brother?"

Kevin nodded slightly upon hearing the question from the Three-Tails.

"It's an insult."

"Is that fox considered a person?"

"Um... it can also be used to insult a fox."

"Huh? You're so mean, you silly, talkative guy."

The idiot learned it from Killua.

Killua was constantly teaching the Three-Tails how to swear and express its dissatisfaction.

Even after being beaten by Melusina, he still enjoyed it.

Kevin couldn't help but laugh out loud, and hugged the Three-Tails fox back into his arms, patting her to calm her down.

Then he looked at Jin.

Jin walked over, sat down, and took out a black gemstone.

"Here you are, the spatial equipment you requested."

Upon hearing this, Kevin immediately became interested, took the gemstone, and examined it closely.

How do I use it?

"You can sense it by channeling your Nen Aura into it."

Upon hearing this, Kevin tried it out. As his Nen Aura surged into the gem, he immediately sensed a new space.

"There's no entrance, so how do we put it in?"

"The other hand, too, needs to be connected by enveloping it with Nen Aura, and then it can store whatever the other hand touches into the gem."

Kevin picked up the stool next to him and tried it out.

Sure enough, he held the gemstone in one hand and touched the object with the other.

The stool vanished in an instant.

Kevin could clearly sense that it had appeared within the gem's space.

"This is a sphere with a diameter of 2 meters and a volume of approximately 4.19 cubic meters, which is sufficient for normal use."

Jin explained the specifications of this spatial equipment.

Why a sphere?

"I don't know. Perhaps it's because the original shape of the entire substance was a sphere, and I can't determine its internal volume before the finished product is produced, nor can I modify it."

"I can only turn it into a spatial device; the size of that space should be related to the size of the gem."

Kevin looked at the Round Orb in his hand, which was about half the size of his thumbnail.

"Looks like anyone can use it, right?"

"That's right, converting it into space equipment is already quite troublesome."

"If user restrictions are to be imposed, it can be made into an ornament, with additional components added to the outer casing to achieve this purpose."

"But I think you can do this yourself. Just treat it as practice; it's not difficult."

This method of production is very simple, and Jin was too lazy to waste time.

As he spoke, he took a Notebook out of his pocket and tossed it over.

"Inside are the methods and tips for making this kind of gemstone. It's not difficult once you learn it, and you have more free time than we do now."

With that, he waved and got up to leave the Pharmaceutical Room.

Everyone has been very busy lately.

In comparison, Kevin himself became somewhat relaxed.

Jin, on the other hand, is about to devote himself entirely to increasing his strength.

Looking at the small Orb in his hand, he thought of the huge Black Orb behind him.

He took out the unmodified "The Master of Stealth" from the box next to him.

"Perfect timing, let's try this out."

Transforming the product of Resentment is actually simpler for Kevin now.
