Chapter 186: The True Strength of the Cold-blooded Butcher, The Truth Behind the So-Called Pu Cha_3
The privacy of the "Dream Inn" has been certified and is somewhat trustworthy.
Unfortunately, he still didn't meet Sun Miao today. Instead, as the innkeeper, he encountered a girl with a peculiar taste, wanting to explore his secret cave to enjoy some unique pleasures, frightening him into logging off immediately.
Just as Ren Zhong logged off with a pale face, Ju Qingmeng returned from work.
Seeing Ren Zhong's state, she laughed and said, "What happened? You don't look like yourself."
Ren Zhong shook his head with a wry smile, "The world is vast, and nothing is impossible."
With that, he exchanged glances with Ju Qingmeng.
Soon after, both of them took out dark velvet pangolin skin sleeves from their pockets, covered their wrist watches, and then placed the wrist watches on the wrists of two newly bought humanoid housekeeping robots beside the table.
The two robots began to wrestle and entangle with each other.
Ren Zhong and Ju Qingmeng headed to the basement.
Ju Qingmeng took off her backpack, which contained various metal smelting equipment parts dismantled from a small laboratory.
Ju Qingmeng's private laboratory also had small-scale metal smelting equipment.
Ren Zhong didn't dare let Ju Qingmeng take everything away, only occasionally bringing back some "scrapped parts" and assembling them manually in this wine cellar.
"I might be busy for a long time tonight; you should go to sleep first."
Ju Qingmeng shook her head and said, "Aren't you going to lead the wilderness team to raid the Bone Valley tomorrow? You should sleep early too."
"It's fine, I have a ten percent chance of success. The battle with the Descending Demon Baby is just a process, not my end goal. This current task is more important."
Ju Qingmeng looked at the box beside her and sighed, "The existence of this alien ore is too unreasonable. It was so fierce underground, and within its radiation range, almost no life could survive, yet Yang Bingzhong only did preliminary refining, and the radiation disappeared completely."
Ren Zhong also sighed, "It's indeed bizarre."
He was also troubled.
For some reason, even though he had restored all the special equipment in the alien ore factory and placed samples on them, there was no reaction at all.
After spending more than ten days on the road to studying alien ore, he has made no progress.
What's more frustrating is that if he utilized his citizen rights to conduct a deep information search, he might immediately find some clues, but he dared not.
Feeling restrained, he felt like a cow chewing on a pumpkin, unable to start.
Ren Zhong couldn't help but think that if it really doesn't work this time, he might as well lower his expectations and leave the information search to when he confronts the Cold-blooded Butcher.
By then, if he finds himself without a chance of victory, he'll find out everything without hesitation, come what may.
But he then remembered the butcher's terrifying combo attacks.
Ren Zhong thought that in such an environment, he probably wouldn't be able to focus at all.
Forget it!
At worst, I'll enhance the automatic cruise escape ability of my armor and just flee, activating hypnosis while escaping, what can be done to me?
Of course, this might also violate the rules, and he might be judged as engaging in passive combat, getting blown up by some weapon.
Many things can only be known when they happen.
After another two hours of unproductive effort, with Ju Qingmeng already unable to hold on anymore and heading to her room to rest, Ren Zhong returned to the living room and continued to sleep on the sofa.
Day 82.
This day was destined to be extraordinary for Starfire Town.
Nobody expected that while the future of Pu Cha was still uncertain, as the head of the resource recycling company, Ren Zhong would prepare to organize a super large-scale team hunt.
The target of the hunt was none other than the Descending Demon Baby lurking around Starfire Town like a Damocles sword!
Upon hearing Ren Zhong's mobilization, the rural people finally realized why General Ren had been working hard to enhance their abilities early on.
That was his plan all along.
The overall team combat strength is as follows.
Ren Zhong himself, a total of 12 Fourth Level professionals recalled from Chromium Carbon Town, and Jiang Kai and two others.
In total, there are 16 Fourth Level professionals here.
Including Yujin and Third Level professionals from Chromium Carbon Town, there are 17 people with Third Level configurations.
Led by Zheng Tian and others, there are a hundred Second Level professionals.
From within Starfire Town, there are a total of 4,900 First and quasi-First Level professionals.
All these more than 5,000 people are fully armed, extending their military capabilities to the extreme according to their conventional abilities.
Additionally, during his last fight with the Demon Baby, he also observed the battlefield, selecting nearly ten types of ammunition and bombs with special effects against the Demon Baby's sub-body.
He also spent 5 million points to hire the first hacker in Yangsheng City, a Sixth Level special professional, to create a virus-infested palm-sized smart brain for him.
If it weren't for knowing the cunning of the Demon Baby and its mysterious information flow sensitivity towards Level Five professionals, immediately avoiding any wrong situation, Ren Zhong might have even pulled in Ma Xiaoling, who had already become a Level Five warrior.
Ren Zhong's equipment had already begun undergoing modifications on Day 75, the day he cleared out the starship construction stocks, and was completed yesterday.
His triple-leverage operation on the starship construction brought him nearly 3.2 billion in net profit, raising his personal assets to their peak.
Of course, as a mere Second Level citizen, he indeed made too much in the stock market, so much so that his wealth far exceeded the limit that a normal Second Level citizen could earn.
The lie he once told to Ma Dafu and others turned out to be true.
He indeed received a double warning from the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Business Association.
His stock market account was shut down without any reason.
Ren Zhong didn't even want to complain about the "laws" on Source Star.
It was clearly a new rule tailored by some power holders against Ren Gushen, creating a one-cabbage-a-pit system, turning planetary governance into a small workshop.
Just maintaining the societal system without collapsing relied purely on extremely high-level technology, suppressing the sparks of revolution.
Of course, in some sense, the power holders on Source Star still stayed somewhat within the rules, not confiscating his assets outright, at least leaving a bit of a bottom line.
In any case, Ren Zhong, with money more than he could spend, began to invest madly in himself.
A normal Level Five exoskeleton standard equipment is valued at 20 to 30 million.
Yet, the total value of his equipment now reached as high as 200 million!
Once again, he achieved the feat of having "skin" that cost several times more than a hero.
It's not that he didn't want to spend more, but he found that even with a Perfect Level Sixth Sense, the equipment he could handle was just this level; putting more money into it was meaningless.
Unless he continued to enlarge the armor, to transform it from single-soldier armor into a personal war fortress.
But that was already the configuration of the regular army, something from a different level, clearly not a domain he, as a mere Second Level citizen, could touch.
In conclusion, compared to the last time he died at the hands of the Descending Demon Baby, Ren Zhong's preparation this time was taken to the extreme.
He was very curious how the Demon Baby, appearing high-spirited, would react upon finding out that waiting for itself was a semi-regular army of 5000 people, surpassing the ordinary Level Five professional-led team.
