Chapter 947 - 893: Uses of Giant Crab Excretion Ore
As the neutral agreement was established, the entire fleet erupted into thunderous cheers, and Da Fei couldn’t close his mouth from laughing.
The situation had gone so smoothly to this point that it was beyond Da Fei’s imagination. Da Fei initially thought that the situation in the Nether Sea would require him to personally come and stabilize it in half a year, but he never expected that he would settle it conveniently just passing through.
Of course, the Nether Sea has many forces, and securing two forces certainly doesn’t mean complete stabilization. But this is the snowball effect; with two joining, can the third and fourth be far behind? Moreover, four forces can totally establish a trade circle, doing business slowly to gain reputation and smooth out relationships. After everyone is united, splitting the entire Nether Sea would be just around the corner.
Now Da Fei finally feels truly at ease. Not to mention going out in the afternoon, even when sleeping at night, he can finally sleep soundly.
At this moment, Yasoro couldn’t wait to row over in a small boat from the neighboring ship. He jumped onto Da Fei’s deck, laughing heartily: "Boss, it seems we’ve scared them out of their wits! But there’s a problem, where do we unload this cargo?"
While speaking, he pulled out a handful of golden-yellow earth, which was the excrement of the giant crab. But it still had no attribute, not even the name of the item. That is to say, aside from knowing it possesses Light Energy, this is something even the Giant Crab King doesn’t know how useful it is, meaning he doesn’t know how to price it either.
Da Fei handed this lump to Nerxia and Anvil beside him and said, "This, the Giant Crab King said that Bright Creatures might need it. Can you identify it?"
Nerxia shrank back a bit and coughed dryly: "Well, it looks like some kind of salt essence. This should be the result of material energy transformation. Although various energies might be needed for the evolution of the Undead, Light Energy is especially not needed. Although Light Energy is scarce in the Netherworld, scarce doesn’t mean absent; it ultimately still needs to be expelled. Uh, better let Anvil take a look."
Oh dear! Do you really see it as just a pile of poop? Although it indeed is just a pile of poop, how could Angels without physical bodies understand the existence of such a material? Helplessly, Da Fei handed it to Anvil.
Anvil seriously extended a finger, chipped off a small piece from the earth, and sniffed it. Then — in front of everyone present, she stuffed this little piece into her mouth!
At that moment, everyone was stunned! Nerxia was even more shocked and turned pale. Goodness! Is the Power Angel’s mind that simple and crude? Okay then, this is not eating poop; this is milk produced by the giant crab!
Anvil chewed slowly while frowning, and those present kept watching her expression, eyelids twitching continuously. Finally, Anvil began to speak, and as soon as she opened her mouth, a small puff of golden smoke drifted out!
"Wow!" The crowd gasped in amazement.
Anvil calmly said: "A very pure Light Energy Crystal! But it’s not suitable for Angels without physical bodies to consume; we cannot fully absorb it, but if given to Unicorns or Bright Griffins, the effect would surely be different."
Nerxia was shocked: "Are you sure this is for consumption? Not a material for casting spells? What effect will it have when eaten?"
Anvil gave her a look: "Why don’t you try it and see?"
At this moment, Selvia appeared: "Let me try!" She reached out, chipped off a small piece, and put it into her mouth.
Da Fei was astonished again! Forget it, nothing to say, I will eat it too! Da Fei also chipped off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
In the game, players of course can’t taste it. Players need to watch for the system prompt for the status. For example, when drunk, the player’s screen would start shaking and blurring. However, apart from spitting out a puff of golden smoke, Da Fei also had no system prompts to discover.
Even Selvia shook her head: "I can feel the Light Energy inside, but I cannot absorb it at all. This might not be an item for heroes to use."
Anlicia, however, ground the powder slowly, clapped her hands, and laughed: "I guessed what this is. It might be similar to the honey produced by bees; bee honey can increase the population of the Flower Demon Vine Demon race and the production of Flower Demon species. So this thing must have a similar function, able to enhance the production of Light Species like Unicorns, or even improve the species’ attributes. If that’s the case, this thing is quite upscale!"
Who would have thought the Nether Sea actually had such good stuff! Da Fei found it hard to believe yet was extremely excited: "This is the excrement of the giant crab!"
Anlicia laughed: "Honey is bee saliva, after all. Same difference!"
Catherine also spoke: "Right, since ordinary Angels can’t absorb it without bodies, what about Remy whom we rescued last time? He is an Ancient Angel with a body. Let him try, won’t we be able to test all the effects?"
Da Fei was suddenly enlightened: "Makes sense!"
Exactly, I’ve always seen him lifeless on the chessboard during this time and didn’t have the chance to ask, but in a place like Nightmare Space, where Light Energy is meager, the recovery progress may not be fast regardless of rest, and without recovering strength he’s just a burden. It’s better to take him to the Light Energy-filled Fatalon to eat and sleep to his fill, and shake things up a bit, strengthening Fatalon’s power, lest Fatalon’s military is too weak and can’t even make a sound.
Yasoro was growing impatient: "Boss, what I care about is who to sell this to!"
Da Fei laughed heartily: "Of course, sell it to me! Rest assured, we’ll go by the agreement. You won’t get any less for your share, but don’t talk about money until we figure out the value of this thing — oh right, I had half the credit for taking the goods this time, right?"
Yasoro sensibly laughed: "Of course, that’s why the boss gets half too!"
This is the right attitude, even God-level Experts were frightened by my strength, let alone a little pirate like you.
Anlicia asked again: "The Giant Crab also mentioned needing items full of Death Energy or biological corpses in exchange. Has the City Lord thought about the future procurement method?"
Da Fei raised an eyebrow, this is also a problem?
Yasoro sneered: "I don’t know about items full of Death Energy, but plenty of biological corpses. Our brothers randomly kill a few —" At this point, Yasoro realized: "There seems to be no biology here? Do Undead Zombie corpses count as biological corpses?"
Damn! Isn’t this nonsense, of course not, they want fresh meat! The problem is, in the marketplace, the meats sold are labeled "food" not "biological corpses", plus, under normal circumstances, how can players even transport corpses here?
Elina, who had been silent, finally spoke: "The Giant Crab means, in fact, is simple, it’s to exchange for biological troops with him. Although it seems like a very cruel thing, it’s actually not much different from using war captives as sacrifices to gods, just get over it."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly became speechless. Da Fei immediately realized that, as a player, of course, I can get over it! The problem is, my weak point is precisely having no troops! Even if I buy them from other players, who knows how many units of troops’ corpses it would take to exchange for one unit of supplies?
In any case, this matter can only be thought over in the future. First, use up the 5000 single loads in hand before saying anything else. (To be continued.
