The interface on the panel was very clean, with the four large characters Combat Simulation written at the very top.
Below them were rows of empty card slots, prompting that the target for the combat simulation could be selected.
However, there were currently no targets on it at all, presenting a grayed-out appearance.
There was a line of small prompt text in the center of the panel.
[Players need to submit materials from the target creature, and the system will extract its genetic and energy information to be entered into the Combat Simulation Database.]
Need to submit materials from the other party to enter the information?
I actually do have materials.
Su Ye moved his thoughts and directly opened the Storage Ring.
His consciousness swept across the storage space, where quite a few monster materials were piled up.
Mutant Rat teeth, a venomous snake's poison gland, and a few tattered animal skins.
Finally, Su Ye took out a wolf skin and pressed it directly against the scanning area in front of the panel.
Whoosh!
A blue light swept across the wolf skin, and the wolf skin instantly dissipated into dots of light.
[Entry successful! Target: Mutant Gray Wolf.] [Do you wish to consume one Survival Coin for the combat simulation?]
It really does cost money.
Su Ye was not surprised, either; Zhou Kai had already told him about it beforehand.
The collected Survival Coins were determined not based on the number of simulations, but according to the target's own strength.
This Mutant Gray Wolf's strength was obviously not high, so it only required one Survival Coin.
"Yes."
Su Ye decisively clicked confirm.
[Deducted one Survival Coin, combat simulation starting.] [Tip: Players will drop off the ring if killed in a simulation match, and their mental state will suffer a certain impact, but there is no need to worry about real death.]
As the system prompt tone fell, the space in front of the ring began to distort violently.
Countless points of light frantically converged, and soon, a giant wolf with a body length exceeding two meters and gray fur covering its entire body like steel needles appeared out of thin air on the ring.
"Roar!"
As soon as the gray wolf appeared, it lowered its body and let out a deafening roar toward Su Ye.
A thick, fishy stench mixed with bloodthirsty killing intent rushed toward his face, and the gray wolf's scarlet eyes stared fixedly at Su Ye, with sticky saliva even dripping from its sharp fangs.
It really is realistic; I can clearly feel this gray wolf's ferocity, the tension of its muscles, and even the rhythm of its breathing.
Su Ye thought to himself.
Whoosh!
At that very moment, the gray wolf kicked off the ground with its hind legs, emitting a dull, explosive sound.
The huge wolf body turned into a gray gale, opening its bloody maw and pouncing toward Su Ye to slaughter him.
The speed was extremely fast, and the momentum was exceptionally fierce.
Yet Su Ye shook his head, because the opponent was simply too slow.
With his current Mental Attribute, his dynamic vision had reached a terrifyingly extreme degree.
The gray wolf's seemingly fierce pouncing movement appeared to be slowed down several times over in his eyes.
He could even clearly see the contraction trajectory of the abdomen muscles when the gray wolf was suspended in mid-air.
Just as the gray wolf reached right in front of him, Su Ye moved.
He did not retreat; instead, he stepped forward with his right foot and threw a punch.
Boom!
A dull sound that made one's scalp tingle.
Under Su Ye's unreserved punch, the gray wolf's skull was as fragile as paper-mâché.
The immense force instantly penetrated its head, and its head directly burst apart, with red and white filth splashing in all directions.
The massive wolf body stiffened in mid-air, then crashed down onto the ring, twitched a couple of times, and completely lost its breath of life.
[Combat simulation ended.] [Target killed, time elapsed: 1.2 seconds.] [To continue the simulation, another Survival Coin must be consumed.]
As the system's cold voice sounded, the gray wolf corpse on the ground and the splashed bloodstains instantly turned into points of light and dissipated, and the ring recovered its previous neatness once more, as if nothing had ever happened.
Su Ye slowly withdrew his fist, looking at the empty ring with some helplessness. Cheap goods are never good.
Although he had used all his strength in that punch just now, he hadn't expected it to cause such exaggerated destructive power.
This gray wolf's attributes probably haven't even reached five points; killing it with a single punch completely fails to serve any purpose of honing combat skills.
What a waste, ruining a Survival Coin and a wolf skin of mine for nothing.
Su Ye had no intention of continuing to click on the simulation.
Testing the effect was enough; continuing to simulate with this kind of low-level monster, aside from satisfying the thrill of bullying weaklings, offered no substantive improvement to himself whatsoever.
Later on, I definitely need to get some powerful monster materials for combat.
Su Ye thought rapidly in his mind. Still, monsters are monsters in the end; they rely on instinct. Truly profound killing techniques are still mastered by intelligent civilizations.
If I get the materials of a Great Xia Soldier and enter them, it will be equivalent to having a one-on-one instructor.
I can ask about it tomorrow.
Having made up his mind, Su Ye did not linger much longer on the ring, turned around, and walked off it.
Let's go out first and let the Vehicle continue upgrading.
Su Ye moved his thoughts and chose to leave the Training Room.
Whoosh!
The scene before his eyes distorted once more, and in the next second, Su Ye had already returned to the driver's cabin.
Use up the remaining two Function Modules as well. By then, I'll let the Vehicle enter autopilot mode to travel while I stay in the Training Room for all-weather training without wasting a single bit of time.
While calculating in his mind, Su Ye took the Function Module out of the Storage Ring.
"Use."
Hum!
A familiar scene appeared once again, and a dazzling white light instantly enveloped the entire car.
[Vehicle upgrading... Integrating Function Module.] [Estimated time required: fifty-five minutes.]
Fifty-five minutes... I wonder if I can enter the Training Room while the Vehicle is upgrading?
A thought suddenly flashed through Su Ye's mind.
If he could only sit blankly in the car during the upgrade period, those fifty-five minutes would simply be a massive waste.
Right away, Su Ye came to the vehicle wrapped in the white light, reached out his hand, and tentatively pressed against that layer of substantive-looking white light.
The touch was somewhat warm, and there was no repulsive force.
Su Ye immediately called up the Vehicle panel and chose to enter the Training Room.
Whoosh!
The next instant, Su Ye's figure disappeared from the spot out of thin air.
When he opened his eyes again, the familiar silver-gray space had already appeared before his eyes, and various cold metal pieces of equipment stood quietly all around.
It really works!
Su Ye nodded in satisfaction. In this way, even if the Vehicle cannot move during the upgrade period, I won't waste a single bit of time either.
Right now, the Vehicle's upgrade time was still short, merely fifty-five minutes.
However, as the Vehicle's level grew higher and higher, upgrading it once in the future might require a few days or even several months of time.
He certainly couldn't just guard a glowing iron shell on the highway and do nothing at all.
Su Ye reined in his focus and took a look at the attributes.
[Physique]: 11.4 (Base 9.9 + Vest 1 + Strength Bracer 0.5)
My base Physique attribute is still 0.1 short of breaking through to 10 points. I can just use this opportunity to test the effect of the Training Room and see how long it takes of training to increase the attribute by 0.1.
Immediately, Su Ye walked toward the physique training area.
