Chapter 63

Comparing the three materials with the most technologically advanced white desk, it makes perfect sense.

Soon, Xie Ming produced two more solid materials with significantly different production levels, which thoroughly confirmed this conclusion.

"If people knew about this characteristic, its value could rise to almost that of a mid-grade Wilderness Weapon. The only drawback is that this ability to alter matter will cause it to deplete itself. However, in truly dangerous situations, consuming it to save one's life is a good option."

"Of course, since the Ancient Wilderness is mostly a natural environment, it can't function in that way. I wonder how it will perform in the Ancient Wilderness ruins."

Listening to the other party's explanation, Wen Jing nodded thoughtfully.

"Let's erase the record," Dean Bai said from the side.

Xie Ming chuckled and nodded, "I'm too lazy to write a report."

Wen Jing felt a warmth in her heart, knowing that the two were keeping it a secret for her.

The Ancient Wilderness ruins are unknown, but the bronze fragments, as they currently demonstrate, are primarily used to deal with battles and dangers in the material universe.

Although some material loss is possible, this bronze fragment, being Wilderness Weapon, is capable of conceptually destroying materials from an era higher than its own.

In certain special moments, it can produce unexpected results.

After studying Wen Jing's Wilderness Weapon, Dean Bai looked at Xie Ming with sparkling eyes. "Old Xie, you mentioned the time difference concept, could my Wilderness Weapon also have the same hidden function that hasn't been discovered yet...?"

"I don't think so. Your Wilderness Weapon is completely different!" Xie Ming said, speechless.

Wen Jing's ears perked up involuntarily. What kind of Dean Bai's Wilderness Weapon could it be? He was really curious!

Actually, she was quite curious about what their Wilderness Body were like, but since they hadn't brought it up, she felt awkward asking, as it would be inappropriate for her to pry.

"Give it a try!"

"... All right."

As the two were talking, Dean Bai took out his Wilderness Weapon.

Upon seeing the Wilderness Weapon artifact, Wen Jing's pupils dilated in shock.

It's a long, black strip, about the size of a brick, with a small rectangular electronic screen and a thick, long antenna on top.

It turned out to be... the oldest version of a mobile phone, commonly known as a 'big brother'.

No, is that right?!

After seeing the bronze slabs, Wen Jing once thought that all Wilderness Weapon were similar in shape.

Unexpectedly, Dean Bai opened her eyes to new possibilities on the spot.

Seeing Wen Jing's surprised expression, she smiled and leaned closer, saying, "Guess what it is?"

"... It looks like a machine?"

Wen Jing at the mobile phone, Wen Jing was filled with mixed feelings. In fact, her strongest feeling was that it was a good thing there was no logo on it and no numbers or symbols on any of the buttons, otherwise she would have been speechless with frustration.

"Haha, you've never seen anything like it before, have you? Such a huge communicator!"

Dean Bai generously introduced the Wen Jing.

She poured energy into the mobile phone, and the gray screen lit up, as if it had been successfully charged and turned on. However, there were no numbers or symbols on the small gray screen, which was consistent with the setting that Ancient Wilderness script would not appear in the material universe.

Wen Jing couldn't help but widen his eyes. "Then what is its function?"

What would be the purpose of a "Wilderness Weapon" phone? It can't really be used to smash people, right? Although it certainly could serve that purpose...

"Communications, of course!"

With that, Dean Bai pressed the red call button with a mysterious expression.

"Beep... beep..."

The moment the busy signal sounded, Wen Jing a chill run down his spine, a strange emotion he couldn't quite explain.

Then a sound came from inside.

"Shh... Wai Bi Ba Bu #*&@..."

Wen Jing: "..."

Dean Bai said regretfully, "In the material universe, there's always noise, but in the Ancient Wilderness times, it would randomly tell me the enemy's weaknesses, the location of treasures, escape routes, and so on... Of course, if you were unlucky, you'd get some incomprehensible nonsense."

"That's really powerful in your hands!" Wen Jing exclaimed in surprise, knowing that the dean's special ability was related to Luck.

"No, it seems my luck didn't work at all," Dean Bai said, somewhat frustrated. "Most of it was just random, nonsensical stuff."

Wen Jing paused, then asked, feigning ignorance, "Do the different buttons have different functions?"

"I've tried them all, only the red one works." Dean Bai shook his head.

Xie Ming, who was standing to the side, had already prepared the materials. "So are you sure you want to use the communicator to smash things?"

"It's not like it wasn't used to smash things in the Ancient Wilderness..." Dean Bai stepped forward and waved his hand. "Don't worry, it's a high-level Ancient Wilderness Weapon after all, its strength is beyond question."

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The experiment begins; the experiment ends.

Apart from leaving large pits on the experimental materials, nothing changed.

The materials Xie Ming prepared were significantly more advanced than those used in Wen Jing's experiments, and their technological content far surpassed that of the "Big Brother" mobile phone.

Dean Bai said regretfully, "It seems this isn't a common characteristic of Wilderness Weapon..."

Seeing her dejected look, Xie Ming burst out laughing, "Of course! If this were a common characteristic of Wilderness Weapon, even if no one had a concept of it, Awakened would have figured it out over the years."

Only Wen Jing, standing to the side, seemed to be deep in thought and struggling with his decision.

Seeing this, the two looked over, recalling the idea she had just proposed, and asked expectantly, "So? Do you have any thoughts? It's okay, just say whatever you want."

Wen Jing organized his thoughts and then told them what was on his mind.

"I was wondering if the dean was just ' Luck ' enough to hear those strange things?"

Both of them were stunned by these words.

After a while, Dean Bai finally came to his senses and said to her earnestly, "Wen Jing, thank you. Your idea has given me a lot of inspiration."

*

During his visit to the research institute, Wen Jing gained a much deeper understanding of Wilderness Weapon, but the Ancient Wilderness seemed even more mysterious.

Bronze, mobile phones... have these tools, bearing the marks of humankind's era, been transformed into the Wilderness Weapon we see today?

A moment later, she set aside these unprovable speculations and headed straight for the shuttle registration center.

Having figured out the role of bronze fragments in the material universe, it's only natural to explore the Ancient Wilderness further.

She ended the competition early because she didn't want to delay the exploration of the Ancient Wilderness. The sooner she could improve her spirit, the sooner she could devour the queen ant.

Standing expertly on the platform, the next moment, a tiny insect appeared beside the Fluorescent Flower Field of the giant tree, almost blending into its surroundings.

"Whoosh!"

With a thought, a floating bronze plate appeared beside Wen Jing.

The terrifying upright ape was able to stand at the top of the food chain precisely because it knew how to use tools.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that the Wilderness Weapon can be remotely powered by energy alone represents a leap forward in her mobility.

By attaching Gravity Silk to bronze plates and then controlling their movement with energy, one can ascend to heaven by stepping on their right foot with their left!

Chapter 63

With the advent of high-speed machinery like the bronze plates during this Ancient Wilderness expedition, Ancient Wilderness 'Wen Jing harvesting at the Giant Tree Farm began to be automated.

She deliberately familiarized herself with controlling the Wilderness Weapon, using Gravity Silk to stick to the bronze piece and refuse to come off.

Moreover, this isn't traditional 'driving'; she can freely adjust her position and direction within the vehicle, and doesn't necessarily have to be directly in front of it.

In the Fluorescent Flower Field, Wen Jing released a large number of Gravity Silk, pressing the nearby flowers downwards.

Time it perfectly, and fly past below, stepping on the bronze plates.

"Da, da, da..."

The viscous nectar dripped down like rain, and was all caught steadily by the bronze plates flying below. The slightly curved bronze plates held the nectar perfectly, making the collection efficiency incomparable to the past.

On the way, they encountered Vine Lizard. The bronze piece flew over and cut it in half. After eating the left side, they ate the right side.

"Huh? A poisonous frog?"

As they continued deeper into the lower layers of the poisonous fog, Wen Jing encountered poisonous frogs.

As a former food source for venomous snakes, poisonous frogs reproduce relatively quickly. Now that they no longer have venomous snakes as their natural predator, they have soon reappeared in the area.

Wen Jing didn't intentionally enter stealth mode, but the poisonous frogs below could no longer detect her.

"Smack!"

It wasn't until she casually killed one of them that the remaining three nearby realized there was an enemy and fled in panic.

The insect floated down from the bronze plate and bit the poisonous frog that it couldn't Digestion earlier.

Hmm... it's still not tasty, just like before.

However, the potent poison that once resided in the poisonous frog no longer has any effect on Wen Jing now.

She ate the entire poison frog without being picky, gaining about the same amount of health as the lizard, but without acquiring any special traits.

If this had happened before consuming the black snake, it would likely have gained some poison resistance, but now it's clearly been overridden by a higher-level effect.

Unfortunately, the Poison Frog was not included in the Giant Tree package due to its poor cost-effectiveness.

Continuing deeper, an ominous red hue soon appeared in the mist.

Red umbrella, shovel!

The tiny insect floated in mid-air, like a sword immortal, directing its Wilderness Weapon to slice through the crimson mushroom from below, taking away the upper half of the mushroom flesh and environmentally friendly leaving a small section of the root system for harvesting next time.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Having consumed all the nearby crimson mushrooms in a shorter time than usual, Wen Jing's mental energy finally broke through the 50 mark.

"Things are different now..."

At this moment, she felt exceptionally clear-headed, and her perception of the outside world was more refined than ever before.

Previously, she could only vaguely sense the level of threatening creatures around her, but now it's as if she's scanning much more extensively: terrain, plants, food...

The search for the crimson mushrooms quickened immediately. After wreaking havoc on all the mushrooms in the area, Wen Jing turned and flew towards the top of the giant tree.
