The Spoils, Spirit Radiance's Growth
Upon arriving at the warship's command center, the black flying sword was still there guarding the mechanical body of the Strange Machine Pterosaur, as well as the magical artifacts, materials, and resources they had left behind.
Wang An took out a storage bag from his waist, put away the tattered [Heavenly Yin Ghost King Banner], picked up the storage bag from the ground, and found that the spiritual imprint inside had dissipated with the death of its owner.
These storage bags are the result of his previous research on rudimentary spatial storage technology. Even his enemies each have one, so it's no surprise that the sales were quite successful.
Looking at the storage bag, long-dormant memories suddenly resurfaced.
"Oh dear, I almost forgot about that. The patent licensing fees for my spatial storage technology are all in the Galactic Interstellar Bank. It's been so long, there should be quite a few Second Tier crystals by now!"
With that in mind, he immediately opened his personal terminal, logged into his bank account, and checked his financial data.
Your account balance: 4.63 million Tier 2 Low-grade Crystals.
"Four million is not bad. Considering the academy produces 10 storage bags per year, it's been over 40 years since then."
"This money is enough to buy four Second-Tier High Grade interstellar warships, but it might be too much for a top-grade law-based warship!"
Wang An then turned his attention back to the bridge command room, looking at the mechanical body of the Strange Machine Pterosaur that had been cut in half and was releasing law radiation, as well as the [Space-Refining Conversion Soul-Locking Banner] that had fallen silent.
These are the things with the greatest value.
His long-standing worries about not being able to upgrade his warships and improve the quality of his magical artifacts due to insufficient funds have eased considerably.
To his surprise, he searched the entire body of the Strange Machine Pterosaur but found no storage pouch, which made him abandon his idea of taking them all in one fell swoop.
Using several extra-large storage bags to collect the totem weapons and mechanical bodies, Wang An then found the treasure vault of this Strange Machine Pterosaur, searching for high-value items.
Finally, they found over a dozen law-based metals and two functional Second-Tier High Grade mechanical law artifacts in the treasure vault.
[Stellar Furnace]
A special energy container made using the laws of space contains a small star and is the core component that powers large war fortresses.
"This thing doesn't seem like something Middle Tier could make. Did some master who's an expert in space and crafting casually create it?"
He observed the small star suspended in the static force field, then gazed at the other law-based artifact that moved like a liquid [Activated Law Metal Source], as well as the pure metal ingots containing various faint laws such as conduction, hardness, and energy gathering, and fell into deep thought.
"Spirit Radiance, can you still read the core data of this triangular warship?"
Having said that, Dawn's figure hovered in the air, reporting with a hint of envy in his voice.
"Yes, you only damaged the connecting devices between the various modules. The main modules of the warship are protected by a large amount of law-based metal and are extremely intact."
"However, it has numerous firewalls and advanced intrusion prevention measures inside, which would take a considerable amount of time to crack."
The current Spirit Radiance is naturally not an ordinary intelligent entity. After Wang An bestowed upon it the [Netherworld Talismanic Edict], a Spirituality light was born. Over the years, it has absorbed a large amount of information and some Daoist knowledge, and has already achieved the normal form of a spiritual life. Attacking and breaking through these low-level intelligent entities is a piece of cake.
Of course, this is under the condition that the opponent is unable to resist. If it were an information-level battle with a complete warship, the current Second-Tier Mid Grade supercomputer on the Wang An Heavenly River would definitely not be a match.
"Alright, dismantle the key modules as soon as possible. We're only 100 light-years from the Silver Star Domain. If we run into their border patrol forces, these things will be difficult to deal with."
Next, Wang An himself joined the dismantling of the 30-kilometer-long warship. He had a large amount of space equipment that he had made himself, which made it extremely fast to move.
As for the blessed land space, it's best not to use it outside. If it arouses the curiosity of some High Tier being passing by, causing any reaction from this [Blessed Land Grotto-Heaven Golden Seed], then he'll have nowhere to turn for help.
Finally, they spent six months disassembling the metal into 18 functional modules and hundreds of cubic meters of law-based metal.
Most of the Second-Tier High Grade extraordinary metals were specially used by Wang An to create a simplified version of the shrinking device by taking advantage of the spatial laws and energy in the blessed land and referencing the shrinking storage mode of the [Stellar Furnace]. This device shrunk the triangular warship, which was now just a frame, to a size of 3km and cleared out a part of the Heavenly River before it could be stuffed inside.
Looking at the miniature warship skeleton inside the Heavenly River, Wang An felt it was a real pity to sell it like this. He couldn't possibly gather such a large quantity of high-grade metal in a short time.
Spirit Radiance, standing to the side, looked at the warship's skeleton with a hint of envy, practically drooling. Seeing this, Wang An smiled slightly.
"Spirit Radiance, let's keep this framework and continue using it as a resource for upgrading the Heavenly River. What do you think?"
Looking at Wang An's ambiguous smile, Spirit Radiance felt a mixture of longing and shyness, suppressing her desire for a larger size and higher quality.
"Okay, okay."
"However, isn't the Master going to sell to buy Law Resources? Your cultivation is more important; I can wait."
Hearing that Spirit Radiance now actually knows how to genuinely restrain himself and care for others, Wang An was extremely surprised.
"Spirit Radiance, since you absorbed the database accumulated by this warship over thousands of years, your Spirituality has grown stronger recently. You've even learned restraint and care, which has exceeded my expectations."
Seeing that her words had been praised by the real person, Mingxin felt a sense of joy, which she found quite novel.
"Thank you, Master. If it weren't for you bestowing upon Spirituality Spirit Radiance, I would still be an unconscious informational entity. Moreover, with the galaxy in such turmoil, your early attainment of the Golden Core True Lord realm is crucial for the survival of human civilization."
"Therefore, if you need any resources for your cultivation, you should buy them as soon as possible, as prices will likely rise significantly afterward."
Hearing Spirit Radiance's analysis, Wang An also felt a sense of urgency.
In the past two years, he has heard too many news of the destruction of Middle Tier civilizations. The "Tyranids" has not been destroyed yet, which has attracted the adults of nearby High Tier civilizations to mobilize and besiege them.
In other, more distant places, High Tier battles also broke out from time to time, suddenly bringing many High Tier civilizations and races that had been immersed in their own little worlds back to reality.
After collecting their spoils, they underwent several checks upon entering the Silver Star Domain. The checks would have been even more stringent had they not already coordinated with the Silver Academy beforehand.
"By the way, Spirit Radiance, does the warship database contain information about the uses of those two special law-based artifacts?"
