Chapter 95

Song Xiaozhu suddenly realized. "You gave me a 14% discount?"

Xiao He's words were blunt and hurtful. "Yeah, you're poor."

Song Xiaozhu: "..."

How can we tolerate this?

This is absolutely intolerable!

Song Xiaozhu, clinging to a sliver of pride, said, "No need for a discount, it's just 100 Quantum Coin, I..."

Good heavens, we went on a spending spree today! The Quantum Coin Tian Man brought back are almost gone.

No wonder Xiao He gave her a discount.

Song Xiaozhu cleared her throat and said, "I'll make it up to you next time."

Xiao He was very obedient. "It's okay, eating a little less won't hurt."

She shouldn't have said anything, because her words only made Song Xiaozhu more distressed. "No, no matter how poor we are, we can't let ourselves go hungry."

Xiao He delivered just in time. "All level 3 recipes are now unlocked, triggering Repair Quest. Once completed, the Workbench can be upgraded to level 4."

The Repair Quest are as follows:

First, the Repair Points 1000 points;

Second, unlock all Tier 3 'synthesies';

Third, 10 Rough Stone Fragment.

The Repair Quest was finally triggered. Song Xiaozhu listened intently, her expression gradually becoming serious.

She now has an excellent grasp of the Synthesizer's progress, even without checking it.

The Repair Points are definitely not enough; you need to complete the mission of protecting the "base" to get 1000 Repair Points in one go.

Level 3 crafting materials are no problem; she just needs to make the advanced storage box and the energy armor. The former requires Quantum Coin, and the latter requires Energy Stone, neither of which are difficult.

"What are Rough Stone Fragment?" Song Xiaozhu asked Xiao He.

Xiao He: "... It's Rough Stone Fragment."

In fact, many of the terms of address used in Xiao He are different from those used in the outside world.

For example, she calls the Awakening Stone Energy Stone.

Is the Heart of the Creator merely Rough Stone Fragment?

Xiao He saw the doubt in her eyes and answered her, "... I don't know."

Song Xiaozhu: "It's okay, we'll find out when the time comes."

Why are the terms different?

Energy Stone and Rough Stone... these should be their original names.

What does this mean?

Xiao He: "Growth Quest 8 completed, 'Base' established*1"

Please see ' Base Manager ' for details; Received 100 Quantum Coin and 200 Repair Points.

Song Xiaozhu's spirits lifted. It seemed that not only she hadn't slept, but the villagers and residents had also been working in shifts to finally maximize the Construction Value.

Although I received a reward of 100 Quantum Coin, the "Base Manager" is expensive to build, requiring not only 10 communicators but also 500 Quantum Coin.

Song Xiaozhu can only wait until tomorrow.

It wouldn't be right to wake the villagers in the middle of the night and throw them a "Grand Feast."

Song Xiaozhu blinked again. "It doesn't seem like it's impossible?"

After all, everyone's working overtime.

Seeing the impending crisis, many villagers sensed it. After all, they had experienced two beast tides, so they were very perceptive and did their best to carry out Xiao Yunjie's instructions.

Otherwise, how could the village's Construction Value be maximized in such a short time?

Song Xiaozhu rolled out of bed, opened the wardrobe to change clothes... Hmm, let's synthesize an energy armor first.

Although Fan Cang won't come back, we must be extremely careful.

Song Xiaozhu must protect herself.

Only with her alive can Xiao He grow up properly, and only then can everyone live a good life.

She is no longer alone.

She now has a "base"!

Chapter 95

The energy armor is surprisingly thin and light; it's no wonder it's a high-end product that consumed an entire Energy Stone.

Song Xiaozhu took it off the Workbench and unfolded it to find that it was a bodysuit. The color was dark gray and the texture was strange. It felt cold, hard and rough to the touch on the outside, but it was light and breathable on the inside, with a faint white mist swirling around it, as if it had a built-in air conditioner.

The style is very lightweight, and after wrapping her whole body, Song Xiaozhu felt that the size was a bit too big.

Is this armor a one-size-fits-all?

What about those who are taller or shorter?

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly felt the energy armor tighten, sticking thinly to her body.

"Something's up." Song Xiaozhu muttered to herself as she looked in the mirror and noticed that the loose nail guards had become tight, perfectly conforming to her body lines... Hmm, it made her look too thin, like a bamboo pole.

It's good that it's close to her body. Firstly, it makes movement easier, and secondly, she can add an extra layer of clothing for camouflage—it's already autumn, so she won't feel stuffy even if she wears another layer of clothing outside.

The effects of the Energy Armor are. "While worn, defense is increased by 100 points, and initial durability is 100 points."

Hearing this, Song Xiaozhu asked, "Xiao He, what does 1 point of defense value equal?" She was at a loss when it came to 100 points, mainly because she had no reference point.

Xiao He thought for a moment and explained in a way that Song Xiaozhu could understand, "The steel knife's attack power is 10 points."

Song Xiaozhu understood. "Invulnerable to swords and spears."

Xiao He poured cold water on her enthusiasm again. "If Fan Cang uses a steel sword, his attack power is 100 points."

Song Xiaozhu: "..." Damn All-Purpose Warrior.

She was a little curious, and asked again, "So, in Xiao He eyes, how powerful is Fan Cang's mechanical sword?"

Xiao He: "100..."

Song Xiaozhu: "Huh?"

Xiao He finished speaking, "... up to 10,000."

Song Xiaozhu: "..." That damned, All-Purpose Warrior!

I used to think the Energy Armor was awesome, but now it doesn't seem so appealing anymore.

Forget it, it's unrealistic to expect a single Energy Stone to stop the God-Favored. After all, in their eyes, Awakening Stone are practically as easy to obtain as stones; what they seek is the Heart of the Creator.

After getting dressed, Song Xiaozhu pushed open the door and came out. She was very quiet, but she still disturbed Qiu Shuyu next door.

Qiu Shuyu came out with a bow and arrow:
