Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Ice Condensed Divine Jade, Death Warrior
120,000 Evolution Points can transform any Blue Skill into a Purple one
or can enhance all his Green Talents to Blue.
However, Qin Tian is not ready to use these Evolution Points yet.
In different scenarios, talents that are rarely used may become effective.
For example, in the forest before, it was fortunate that he preserved a few thousand Evolution Points, allowing him to upgrade [Thousand Faces] to [Illusion], which led to the feat of annihilating the Vampires.
Therefore, these Evolution Points can be temporarily reserved, waiting to be purposefully enhanced according to the development of the situation.
For Qin Tian, the most important thing currently is to find a way to compensate for his weakness in Spiritual Power.
If this problem is not solved, he will be unable to confront the mastermind behind the scenes.
Among the numerous talents, none is related to Spiritual Power.
Strengthening talents is a dead end.
Fortunately, Qin Tian has another path to take.
Military Points Exchange
Back on Alpha 7 Star, he amassed a total of 70,000 Military Merit Points,
After exchanging for Spirit Essence Pill, Black Frost Blade, Secret Technique, Life Spirit Liquid, he still had 18,200 Military Merit Points left.
He has kept these Military Merit Points unused, waiting to use them as circumstances dictate.
Now is the right time.
The Military Merit Points exchange system operates independently, with no interference from anyone.
Thus, Qin Tian can confidently browse and choose, without worrying about resource constraints.
He carefully explored the Silver Gray Star’s Military Department treasury, filtering out items related to Spiritual Power.
Eventually, Qin Tian set his eyes on one item.
Ice Condensed Divine Jade
This item is from the Leng Family, one of the Nine Great Holy Bloods.
The Leng Family are masters of ice and snow, where their coldness transcends temperature, freezing the soul itself.
Among the Nine Great Holy Bloods, the Leng Family is adept at dealing with souls.
For instance, the "Frost Meditation Technique" cultivated by Qin Tian was created by the Leng Family.
Ice Condensed Divine Jade is a soul-protecting treasure crafted by the Leng Family, which keeps its wearer calm and has a soul-protection function. In the event of a Spiritual Attack, the Divine Jade activates automatically, forming a mental shield, and also aids in Spiritual Power cultivation.
The price of Ice Condensed Divine Jade is exorbitantly high, costing 15,000 Military Merit Points.
You should know, the Shadowstrike Rune Spear only costs 2,600 Military Merit Points, and with it, Qin Tian has defeated several Tier Four and even Tier Five formidable enemies, while the price of the Divine Jade is nearly six times that of Shadowstrike.
It’s imaginable how high the quality of this jade is.
Qin Tian did not hesitate and immediately placed an order.
The Ice Condensed Divine Jade not only assists in resisting Spiritual Attacks but also aids in daily mental cultivation, making it perfectly suited to his current needs.
No regrets with the purchase, no worries about being cheated.
Soon, a successful order confirmation was given by the system, and due to its high price, the Ice Condensed Divine Jade would be dispatched from the Silver Gray Star warehouse and delivered to him in the shortest time possible.
As time slipped quietly by, the sky gradually lightened with a subtle glow.
The mist that lingered throughout the night began to transform under the gentle caress of this soft light.
Initially, the white mist was thick and dense, like an invisible wall, tightly encasing the world, with visibility less than three meters, engulfing everything in chaos.
But at this moment, the mist seemingly enchanted by a spell, became lighter, intertwining strands weaving, and then slowly settling, the once-thick fog transformed into an ethereal scene, resembling a fairyland on earth, mesmerizing people and momentarily disconnecting them from worldly disturbances.
This is the renowned magnificent scenery of Mist Town that attracts numerous tourists.
"Huh? How did I fall asleep?"
The on-duty soldier slowly opened his eyes, scratching his head. While this should be a terrifying incident, he merely paused briefly, then continued his watch, as if what happened was an insignificant trifle.
Inside the barracks, soldiers rose one after another. They glanced at the white mist outside the window, expressed brief surprise, and then quickly assembled as usual.
Qin Tian stood by the window, watching the rapidly assembling troops outside, eyes flashing with a subtle glint.
The morning drill proceeded as usual, with no sign of Qin Tian throughout.
It wasn’t until a military flying device descended over Camp 137 that the soldiers saw their Camp Commander Qin.
The cabin door opened.
A tall, upright soldier walked out from the flying device, immediately spotting Qin Tian, walked over rapidly, saluted, and said:
"Major Qin Tian, here are your items, please verify and receive them."
"Alright."
Qin Tian presented his credentials, swiped them on the machine to confirm identity, then received a sealed iron box from the soldier.
"Thank you," Qin Tian said.
The soldier saluted again, left without tarrying, directly boarded the flying device, departing under the gaze of all soldiers.
For a moment, many soldiers cast their eyes on Qin Tian and the iron box in his hand, curiosity plain in their gaze.
What on earth could warrant a military flying device being dispatched specifically to Mist Town?
It must be something incredibly valuable.
Returning to the office, just as Qin Tian sat down, he heard a knock on the door.
Qin Tian’s eyes flickered, and he said:
"Come in."
Squeak.
The door creaked open, and Zhao Nuo walked in.
"Camp Commander Zhao, is something the matter?" Qin Tian asked.
Zhao Nuo smiled and said: "Camp Commander, I knocked myself out drinking last night and didn’t take care of you properly when returning, so I came to apologize. Did you rest well last night?"
Qin Tian: "It was alright, just some pesky bugs annoyed me, I swatted quite a few to death."
"Oh, there were bugs? I’ll immediately order a full camp cleanup today, and not a single bug will be spared," Zhao Nuo said angrily.
Qin Tian nodded: "I’ll leave it to you, Camp Commander Zhao."
"I guarantee completion of the task."
After speaking, Zhao Nuo’s gaze flitted to the iron box before Qin Tian, asking: "Camp Commander, is this something exchanged from the military treasury? I’m quite curious, may I know what’s inside?"
"This?"
Qin Tian wiped the smooth, cold surface of the iron box and said slowly:
"Inside are some anti-bug items, particularly effective against those hidden deep, yet always giving themselves away."
Hearing this, Zhao Nuo’s expression subtly changed, and he awkwardly said:
"Camp Commander, what do you mean by that?"
Qin Tian lifted his gaze, his tone inexplicable:
"Since I arrived, first Tu Changsong questioned my strength in public, then during the company training, someone forced my hand, and last night, poison was found in my meal. Camp Commander Zhao, it seems you’ve been involved every time something goes wrong, and now, seeing me exchange Military Merit Points for materials, you couldn’t wait to come here. Your little schemes are somewhat clumsy."
After hearing these words, Zhao Nuo’s facial expression vanished immediately, eyes turning cold, and he said slowly:
"Qin Tian, you’re much trickier and smarter than I expected."
Qin Tian said blandly: "Thanks for the compliment. Also, stop staring at the iron box, the item inside has long been hidden away."
Zhao Nuo’s eye corner twitched, and after staring at Qin Tian for a few seconds, he coldly said:
"Qin Tian, in this world, relying on wit alone doesn’t get you far."
"Oh, really? Then tell me, what should one rely on?" Qin Tian said calmly.
"Relying on ruthlessness, hatred toward others, and even more so toward oneself."
As the words fell, Zhao Nuo suddenly struck his chest fiercely, colliding with the glass and falling downwards.
At the same time, a furious, shrill voice echoed throughout the military camp.
"Qin Tian, we had no grudge or enmity, yet you would kill me for power!!"
A moment later, numerous soldiers rushed over upon hearing the noise, only to see Zhao Nuo uttering a wretched cry, blood mixed with pieces of internal organs gushing out of his mouth.
Seeing this, the soldiers swiftly turned their heads and saw a familiar figure next to the shattered window.
It was indeed Camp Commander Qin!
Qin Tian stood by the window, looking at the troops quickly assembling outside, a gleam flickering in his eyes.
He really was a Death Warrior, this was trouble.
