--Black Iron Calendar On May 28, 889, the handsome and majestic Fortress Master invested 300 Spirit Qi Value, 5 Merit Value and 0.1 Basic Energy Reserve into the mutation evolution of a bottle of yeast.
--The estimated completion time of this mutation and evolution is 360 hours, please be patient with the handsome and majestic Fortress Master!
After seeing this information, Zhang Tie estimated that the time it takes for evolution and mutation to produce results is probably related to the growth cycle of organisms. It will take Potato about two months to know the results, while for yeast, it takes about two weeks.
And in this attempt, Zhang Tie discovered one thing, that is, when a certain number of organisms are mutating and evolving, there is an upper limit to the maximum amount of Spirit Qi Value, Merit Value, and Basic Energy Reserve that they can withstand at a time. Like this time, with this half bottle of yeast liquid, when the three sliding control bars are pulled to the far right, the The maximum single investment that Spirit Qi Value can withstand at a time is 7600, Merit Value is 860, and Basic Energy Reserve is 340. These "huge numbers" stunned Zhang Tie for a while. In the end, Zhang Tie had to be careful and make a small-scale investment that was barely affordable to see the situation.
After leaving Castle of Black Iron, my father has returned home. It is already time for dinner at home. Today's dinner is particularly sumptuous. Ham and beef are all on the table. Mom has cooked a table full of dishes, which makes Zhang Tie salivate. At the dinner table, mom keeps holding dishes for Zhang Tie, while dad keeps telling Zhang Tie Things to note in Survival Trial.
"No matter what you do, never go alone in the wild, especially at night, you know?"
Zhang Tie nodded while eating.
"Also, don't show off..." Mom added next to her.
"Mom, your son has thin arms and legs, so there's no point in trying to show off!" Zhang Tie shouted, and then his father hit him on the forehead with chopsticks.
"Of course your mother knows that you have nothing to achieve. Your mother means that you should do things according to your ability. In the wild, it is not as good as in the city. Many things there can kill people!"
"I got it!" Thinking of the way his mother looked at the photo of that damn brother, Zhang Tie vowed that no matter what, he would come back alive.
Throughout the whole meal, Zhang Tie's head was being nodded like a chicken eating rice by her mother and boss.
When the meal was about to be finished, Zhang Tie took out three gold coins from his pocket, took his mother's hand and put it on her hand. The three heavy and shining locomotives frightened my mother and father at once, and my sister-in-law's eyes widened.
Dad's eyes widened. He looked at the three gold coins, then at Zhang Tie. He picked up a gold coin and looked at it in disbelief, "You... where did you get so much money?"
Zhang Tie said nonchalantly, with an expression full of pride, "Of course it's your son. I earned it at the Iron Thorn Combat Hall. There are many rich people there. Sometimes when the service is good, those wealthy young men can just Send a gold coin or something!", Zhang Tie This is half true and half false. In the Iron Thorn Combat Hall, there are indeed sparring partners and other service staff who often receive tips, and the amount of tips they give is not 1. It ranges from a few silver coins to a few gold coins. For example, girls like Mary get an astonishing amount of tips every month. Although Zhang Tie has not received any rewards or Tip, but no one can expose this lie. Not even Battle Hall can ask all the guests on the sixth floor to ask how much tip Zhang Tie has been.
"But... this is too much!" Mom still couldn't believe it. These three gold coins were almost equivalent to Zhang Tie's father's salary for a quarter. It was also a large amount of money for the family.
"Mom, a pair of leather shoes worn by wealthy young men costs more than ten gold coins. Look at the prices of those things on Glorious Avenue. None of them are sky-high. The money is a lot for us, but it is really nothing to them. Otherwise, why do you think so many people like to go to the Battle Hall? Run inside! When your son grows up, he will be able to earn more money in the future. In the past few days of my trial, parents, don't save money. Buy more delicious and nutritious things to supplement your sister-in-law. My little nephew and niece will only grow fat in the future. You should also take care of yourselves and prepare to enjoy the happiness your son has given you in the future."
After saying this, Zhang Tie's father and mother finally believed it. They had heard something about the things in the Battle Hall, and they knew that there were indeed many rich people there. Those people were really spending money like water, which was not something ordinary people like them could compare with.
Seeing that my mother finally carefully collected the three gold coins, Zhang Tie breathed a sigh of relief. With this beginning, it will be easier to handle. From now on, I will get back a little "tip" every now and then, which will also make my parents worry less. This week, the rice brewing business has slowed down, and there is less money to subsidize the family. The smiles on the faces of my mother and father are also much less. Seeing that my sister-in-law's belly is getting bigger day by day, there is another person in the family, and the expenses and expenses of the family will be even greater in the future. You can imagine the pressure on your parents, and Zhang Tie, the son, knows it better than anyone. Seeing my mother putting away the money and looking at each other with my father, and the relieved smiles spreading out of the corners of their eyes, Zhang Tie's heart was filled with warmth.
The next day, the whole family became busy, and Zhang Family's rice wine shop also had a rare day off. Everyone was preparing for Zhang Tie's Survival Trial things this time.
A sleeping bag, a set of lightweight protective leather armor, a poncho, a helmet, an aluminum water bottle, a cowhide lanyard, a backpack, and a multifunctional Entrenching Tool - these things are all available at home. They were used by Zhang Yang, the older brother of Zhang Tie, when he participated in Survival Trial. They were carefully put away by my mother. This time Zhang Tie was going to participate in Survival Trial, so my mother took these things out of the box., for Zhang Tie to use. Like the situation in the Zhang Tie family, many things are passed down from generation to generation. The elder brother uses it for his brother, and the brother uses it for his son. They have to use it until they are completely useless. These things are a bit old, but because my mother has packed them well and saved them, everything can be used when they are taken out. These things are also things that most Black Flame City families prepare for their children to carry out Survival Trial.
Mom turned the sleeping bag out to dry in the sun for a day, and then secretly hid a bag of fried rice for Zhang Tie in the sleeping bag - the amount of food Survival Trial brought was regulated, and it was not allowed to exceed five kilograms, but many people would secretly hide a little. As long as it was not excessive, the school teachers would turn a blind eye...
Dad re-oiled the leather armor, re-sharpened Entrenching Tool, and then went out to buy four kilograms of compressed biscuits and one kilogram of beef jerky for Zhang Tie...
My sister-in-law helped re-adjust the soft pads inside the helmet to the size of Zhang Tie's head, cleaned the water bottle, and prepared a change of clothes and a sewing kit for Zhang Tie...
After a busy day, the family finally prepared everything needed for Zhang Tie to participate in Survival Trial. The last dinner they had at home before participating in Survival Trial was still sumptuous. My father and mother were worried and sad. Apart from my mother's tireless and repeated instructions, there was much less talk at the dinner table.
Zhang Tie is also a little sad. Survival Trial is a test of an adult's ability, and it is also a prelude and overture for him to live and work alone after leaving this home. The meal was originally a good meal, but at the end, when the mother was talking, her tears couldn't help but fall into the bowl, making Zhang Tie unable to eat anymore.
"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine!" Zhang Tie had no choice but to comfort her mother. Although it was difficult to understand the mood of a mother when she was packing up the survival equipment for her son to see him off, my mother's crying made the family members feel that they were about to part ways. The sorrow of separation has begun. As the second son of the family, Zhang Tie actually has very little time left to stay with Black Flame City. Amid the sobbing of his mother, his father's eyes turned red, and so did Zhang Tie's. The last meal at home ended hastily.
After dark, Zhang Tie found a time to go out and walked around the streets. Finally, he came to the door of a post office near the most lively Citizen Square in the center of Heiyan City. When no one noticed him, he dropped an envelope into the mailbox in front of the post office, and then went back home again.
The envelope was brought home by my brother, and it belongs to Black Flame City Guard's daily necessities. As soldiers, there are always times when we need to contact our families, so my brother and the others can receive two special envelopes every month. Military envelopes that can be mailed without stamps. My brother once brought back a few of these envelopes, and got the extra ones. It was sold on the black market. Military postal envelopes are also in demand on the black market. The envelope contained a hood of Red Scarf Bandits and a letter written in standard printing fonts by Zhang Tie. The letter was sent directly to Black Flame City Coal and Steel Union's headquarters, in the letter, Zhang Tie wrote only one sentence without any signature - Red Scarf Bandits colluded with Neumann Merchant Group, and wanted to conspire against Black Flame City!
For Zhang Tie, being able to do this is already his ultimate achievement. In this conspiracy, whether it is Red Scarf Bandits or Neumann Merchant Group, for Zhang Tie As for the entire Zhang Family, they are all superpowers and behemoths. Little people getting involved in the war between such behemoths is like ants getting involved in the fight of a group of elephants. They don't know when they will be trampled to death.
Not to mention that there seems to be a more terrifying figure behind these two major forces. The "adult" in the mouths of Sneider and Hark is the honorific title "adult" inadvertently revealed in the mouths of Hark and Sneider. It makes Zhang Tie's heart feel cold and completely cuts off the lucky idea in his heart that he wants to use this matter to seek greater benefits for himself...
