Chapter 375: Obtain New Items
On the morning of June 22nd, after handing over some work instructions to Wang Jie, Li Chenglong and Yun Lan took their son to the 8th floor of the Dawn Tower, to Lilith's place. Lilith adored the human cub, taking Li Yunhao from Yun Lan and affectionately pressing her face against his. With Dawn City's upgrade to its highest level, Lilith was now exactly like a normal person, and she also possessed combat abilities, equivalent to a level 10 three-elemental ability user.
Li Chenglong skillfully operated the main computer and opened the highest-level exchange shop. To his surprise, the highest-level exchange shop didn't have many items, only eight in total. The first item was a storage capsule. Li Chenglong already knew how to make these and could mass-produce them. Moreover, the storage capsules here were more expensive than those he made himself, so he ignored them.
The second type is the seed of the Flame Fruit Tree, which requires one level 6 cyan crystal to exchange for each seed. Yunlan was quite satisfied with this. After she upgraded to level 12, her spiritual energy space expanded to 8 square kilometers, of which 5 square kilometers were natural areas with plenty of space to plant Flame Fruit Trees. She immediately exchanged for 50 seeds and stored them in her spiritual energy space, planning to plant them as soon as she got home.
The third type is a production line called the Super Rifle Production Line, which is an enhanced version of the Energy Rifle. At the same cost, the Super Rifles produced on this production line have a longer range, greater power, and consume 40% less energy than the Energy Rifle. The exchange shop has two Super Rifle production lines, and Li Chenglong spent 40 level 10 crystals to exchange for them and put them into his space factory.
The fourth item is the Crystal Chariot automated production line. Li Chenglong redeemed one, but even in his own space factory, he can't produce it yet. The reason is that Li Chenglong has never heard of some of the metals required for the production line, and he's certain they don't exist on Earth. Fortunately, the production line isn't expensive, so he'll keep it for now, in case he needs it later.
The fifth one is the Azure Dragon fighter production line. Li Chenglong ignored this one because the Azure Dragon fighter production line was not only very expensive, but more importantly, the performance of the Azure Dragon fighter was much worse than that of the Tyrannosaurus fighter produced by the Tyrannosaurus fighter production line that Teacher Lena gave him.
The sixth item was something Li Chenglong was very interested in: the Super Potion. The description in the exchange shop stated that the Super Potion could enhance each of the user's four attributes by five points, but each person could only use it five times. That's a full 25 attribute points! The key was that this potion wasn't expensive; one potion only cost one level 7 crystal. Li Chenglong checked the stock of Super Potions in the exchange shop; there were 5000 in total, and he exchanged them all at once.
The reason he redeemed all the super potions at once was because the exchange shop indicated that a potion-making recipe would be given as a bonus upon completion of the redemption. The instant he finished, a scroll flew out of the exchange shop, which Li Chenglong caught and placed in his spiritual energy space, intending to read it later.
The seventh item is a humanoid self-propelled mech production line. Li Chenglong didn't even want to exchange for it. Not only does a production line require 50 level 11 crystals, but he also doesn't have the materials to produce it at the moment.
The last item is of utmost importance; it is also a secret manual or cultivation technique. The conditions for learning it are extremely stringent. One must reach level 13 or higher and possess a storage space within a natural area, specifically a spiritual energy space. Thirdly, the learner must have potential at least SS level. This manual records how to create energy crystals. A highly skilled individual with a spiritual energy space can automatically form crystals within that space after learning it.
After reading it, Li Chenglong and Yun Lan exclaimed in unison, "It can be like this?" Actually, Li Chenglong had been somewhat worried, especially after reaching peace with the zombies in China, which greatly reduced the sources of crystals. Dawn City's daily consumption of crystals was enormous, and although he still had tens of millions of various crystals, they would eventually run out. However, with this secret manual, he could produce crystals, allowing Dawn City to continue developing sustainably. This solidified his determination to upgrade as soon as possible.
Yunlan spent 100 level 10 crystals to exchange for the manual and handed it to Li Chenglong, asking him to put it away safely. Seeing that the two had finished, Lilith handed Li Yunhao, whom she was carrying, to Yunlan, then smiled and said, "Most of the things King Shinaps put into Dawn City using space technology have been exchanged by you. I don't have any good stuff left here. From now on, we'll have to rely entirely on your own efforts. However, I believe that with City Lord Li and Miss Yunlan here, Dawn City's development will definitely not be worse than Sky City's."
The two said goodbye to Han Xiaoling, Lü Xin, and He Shuangshuang, who were on duty in the central information processing area, and headed towards their office on the 7th floor. Li Chenglong said with some regret, "Actually, I was a little disappointed with what the top-tier mall gave me. I thought there would be some powerful weapons, but there weren't any. But it's understandable. Merar is a very harmonious planet with very little military development, so having these things is already quite rare."
Yunlan comforted her, "Relying on external forces all the time isn't a solution. Besides, these things are already quite good. As long as we develop properly, even if aliens attack, we'll have a way to deal with it."
After returning to the office, Li Chenglong took out the scroll containing the formula and preparation method of the super potion and began to read it. Yunlan, meanwhile, was outside chatting with Wang Jie while holding her son, and Pei Ji was printing some documents nearby.
After careful reading, Li Chenglong learned that this super potion required level 9 crystals, Flame Fruit extract, and an extract from a black flower that only grows in psionic spaces. The flower's name was in Meral language, and the dictionary compiled by Erica and Alice didn't specify how to translate it. Li Chenglong thought it resembled an orchid, and since the flowers were black, he named it Black Orchid.
As for the Black Orchid, it has grown quite a bit in Li Chenglong's spiritual energy space, covering at least an acre. He casually exchanged for it when he upgraded to level 3 in Dawn City. Later, after putting exotic bees into his spiritual energy space, he discovered that the Black Orchid's nectar was the most delicious and restored a lot of energy, so Li Chenglong expanded the planting area.
The materials were there, but concocting the potion was a challenge. His own spatial factory, however, possessed the equipment to extract Flame Fruit and Black Orchid. Thinking this, Li Chenglong told Yun Lan and left the office, returning to his study at home. He first greeted Su Xi, telling her not to disturb him unless it was extremely urgent, then went into his study and locked the door.
At 11 a.m. the next day, a haggard-looking Li Chenglong excitedly rushed out with a vial of medicine. He hugged Yunlan, who was waiting outside, and spun her around a dozen times before saying, "Wife, I did it! I did it! Hahahaha!" Yunlan was overjoyed to see his haggard but happy appearance and to learn that the super potion had finally been successfully concocted.
Li Chenglong took out five vials of medicine: "Take these five vials first. Although there are many vials, considering the combat power, we will only distribute them to high-level ability users for now, and they are not given away for free. You need to exchange them with points. I have set up an automated production line in my space factory, but it can only produce 50 vials a day right now. The daily output is enough for 10 people, so 10 days is enough for 100 people."
After finishing his story, Li Chenglong relaxed and felt a little sleepy. He went into the bedroom and fell asleep as soon as he lay down. Yun Lan gently walked over, looked at Li Chenglong's tired but smiling face, and couldn't help but kiss him on the lips. Then she helped him take off his shoes and socks, helped him lie down, and took out a summer quilt to cover him before slowly leaving.
Following Li Chenglong's instructions, Yunlan took a picture of the medicine and labeled its effects, then sent it to all the leaders of Dawn City and the Dawn Army. Everyone was extremely excited upon learning of this treasure, ignoring the requirement to redeem it with points, and all expressed their desire for five doses.
Yunlan told everyone to line up at the city lord's office after 3 p.m. today to collect their gifts. However, in order to avoid chaos, only level 11 ability users and awakened individuals will be given gifts this afternoon, and currently only level 10 and above are allowed to collect their gifts.
