I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 103

Chapter 103

“Here, two Survival Societies.”

Fang Bai handed Li Tieshan eighty Fireball Spell scrolls and twenty Water Shield Spell scrolls, then slung his backpack over his shoulder.

This was the result of his overnight rush job. Of course, due to the sheer quantity, he hadn’t finished them all. So, in reality, the majority inside were still just scroll paper, meant to look impressive.

But in any case, it was equivalent to the value of five or six Survival Societies.

Li Tieshan took the spell scrolls, chuckled at Fang Bai’s words, then looked at the backpack behind Fang Bai with envy.

So domineering!

Forget about strength or not, with this backpack alone, no one in the entire Shen Shan Town would dare to provoke Fang Bai!

“You guys can take the magical beast away. Oh right, remember to return the steel cables to me, or else it’ll be difficult for me to catch magical beasts.

Also, be careful of the magical beast’s skills. This one can spit Wind Blades from its mouth, and its claws can also unleash Claw Flash. It’s very fast, don’t get hurt.”

“Mm, okay.”

Fang Bai nodded with a smile.

As they spoke, someone had already driven a crane truck over. Opening the rear eight-wheeled door revealed the monster, over three meters long.

This monster looked exactly like a wolf. Fang Bai almost thought it was a wild wolf that had evolved. However, when he saw the giant wolf’s blood-red eyes, filled with killing intent and madness, without a trace of clarity or intelligence, Fang Bai realized that it was probably still a monster born from a zombie blood cocoon.

Of course, this didn’t matter anymore.

Looking closely, the monster was covered in wounds. Three of its four legs were broken, and there was a huge mark on its head from a heavy weapon, the bone cracked, barely avoiding being smashed to death.

It was probably that last blow that knocked the giant wolf unconscious and allowed them to capture it alive.

At this moment, the giant wolf’s body was bound with thumb-thick steel cables. Fang Bai paid special attention to the monster’s mouth and claws, only to find that its mouth had been tightly bound, leaving no room for movement.

Its claws were all fixed, facing its own body. If it unleashed Claw Flash, the giant wolf would be the first to die.

The sound of the door opening seemed to startle the giant wolf. It made muffled sounds from its mouth, unable to howl, only able to wriggle within the truck compartment.

“Take it to my place.”

Fang Bai spoke directly to the crane operator. The operator immediately used the steel claws meant for grabbing logs to pick up the giant wolf. Fang Bai turned back to Li Tieshan.

“Then wait a moment, I’ll have someone send the steel cables out later?”

“Okay, please do it as soon as possible.”

“Mm.”

Fang Bai nodded, immediately turned and left, following the crane truck all the way into his own designated area.

After the crane operator put the giant wolf down, Fang Bai pondered for a moment, then directly broke the giant wolf’s remaining leg and used a steel wire rope to tie its mouth shut.

This way, even if the giant wolf broke free from the steel cables, it would lose its mobility and pose no threat.

After arranging for the crane operator to return the steel cables to Li Tieshan, Fang Bai closed the gate of the area and walked to the giant wolf.

If one observed carefully, they would find another Fang Bai meditating inside the container house.

“Wind attribute magical beast.”

Fang Bai muttered after sensing the elemental attribute. Without hesitation, his mental power immediately began to explore the giant wolf’s body.

The bodies of living magical beasts were filled with elemental power, making it difficult for Fang Bai’s mental power to extend inside. Fortunately, the giant wolf’s limbs were broken, and it had no ability to resist, allowing Fang Bai to study it freely.

Fang Bai’s mental power extended bit by bit, quickly coming into contact with the spell model within the giant wolf’s body.

The spell model within the giant wolf had quite a few spell nodes, but Fang Bai was no longer a novice. It didn’t take long for him to grasp this spell model.

Perhaps it could be called the Wind Blade Spell model.

However, Fang Bai’s research and experimentation didn’t stop there. He turned to deeply scan the magical beast’s body. Fang Bai wanted to know how the magical beast’s body could permanently carry the spell model and how the spell nodes existed within it.

“If I can figure this out…”

But just as Fang Bai was about to start his research, the door was knocked on again. Ji Ying’s voice came from outside.

“Village Chief, there’s another person selling a magical beast!”

“Another one?”

Fang Bai was stunned. He immediately went over to see that it was Sheng Wenyu from Heyuan Company.

Sheng Wenyu and his team were still somewhat disheveled, with several injured members. It looked like they had rushed to Fang Bai’s place as soon as they captured the magical beast. Fang Bai didn’t pay much attention to this and went straight up to greet Sheng Wenyu.

After some discussion, Sheng Wenyu exchanged a live mantis-like magical beast and a batch of elemental materials for a total of one hundred and twenty spell scrolls.

“What’s going on? No one had captured a magical beast alive before, and now two have been captured at once?

If two could come every day, wouldn’t that be too comfortable?”

Looking at the newly acquired magical beasts, Fang Bai felt a bit dreamy. But after thinking carefully, he suddenly realized something.

“Ah, this… Could it be that they’re competing?”

Fang Bai estimated that there were roughly two reasons why the magical beasts were being sent over one after another.

“After I wiped out the Survival Society with dozens of Fireball Spells, all the companies felt a sense of crisis.

Especially with other companies starting to capture magical beasts on a large scale, capturing a magical beast that I don’t have means being able to eliminate two Survival Societies.

This means that as long as they capture a magical beast that I don’t have, they can gain enough confidence and initiative in the competition among various companies.

Even if there are no conflicts between the companies, having spell scrolls on hand is completely different from not having them.

This should be one of the reasons.”

“Second, they should also know that the survivors in the city center might be coming out and have learned that the survivors in the city are very strong.

To avoid repeating Qing Stone Mountain Company’s mistake, capturing a First-Order magical beast in exchange for one hundred spell scrolls is the most convenient and easiest way to deal with it.

As long as you have a hundred spell scrolls in your hand and a Water Shield Spell on your body, holding Fireball Spell scrolls, you’ll be a force to be reckoned with in a fight, countering all fancy tricks.

With these two factors combined, these companies will at least capture one magical beast that I already have to exchange for spell scrolls. This is also easy to understand.

Only one company and one faction have come so far. So, this means there are at least four more companies, which means four more magical beasts, four hundred spell scrolls… Ah, this!”

Fang Bai froze at this thought.

After exchanging two magical beasts, Fang Bai had very few spell scrolls left in his hands.

“No, I must make a batch of spell scrolls in advance. There will definitely be a lot of people exchanging for spell scrolls during this time!”

Fang Bai immediately made a decision. Regarding the issue of not having enough spell scrolls for exchange, he could passively deal with it by suspending the exchange. However, this was equivalent to giving up an opportunity to obtain a large number of new spell models, an opportunity that didn’t come often.

This was something Fang Bai couldn’t accept.

Glancing at the magical beast, Fang Bai’s projection resolutely returned to the container house and took out all the elemental material powder.

The elemental material powder ground yesterday filled thirty-seven liters in bottles, enough to make over seven hundred scroll papers. A considerable portion had already been made.

In addition, Heyuan Company had just brought another twenty liters of elemental materials, which meant another four hundred scroll papers.

Theoretically, as long as Fang Bai turned all these elemental materials into spell scrolls, he wouldn’t panic even if each company brought one magical beast. It’s just…

Fang Bai looked at the thick stack of scroll papers and completely dismissed the idea of continuing to study the magical beast today.

One scroll paper after another turned into spell scrolls in Fang Bai’s hands. With experience from mass production, Fang Bai’s success rate in making Fireball Spell scrolls could now basically reach fifty percent.

That is, two scroll papers could produce one finished scroll, which saved raw materials once again.

It could be said that making spell scrolls was now very easy and proficient for Fang Bai.

However, when faced with these hundreds of scroll papers, Fang Bai still felt a sense of powerlessness.
