Chapter 465: Chapter 213: Meeting Xia Heng Again

Magma Square was actually a radiation zone.

However, it was the safest one.

The radiation levels here could be tolerated by any young wolf but exceeded the limit for glass people.

Thus, Gao Xin had moved the glass people in the team to an upper region in advance.

"Boom!"

Through his inner vision, Gao Xin found a hollow area and blasted through the metal garbage wall with a single shot, connecting to that void.

Immediately, a swarm of insects spread from his body, burrowing in to expand the room.

"Settle down here, I’ll leave some insects to protect you, don’t worry."

Gao Xin left all the glass people in that hole, then removed an exoskeleton-wrapped, hive-like organ from his body and placed it in the corner.

This was a method of using the exoskeleton once activated, enabling it to combine with the Human Body Insect Nest module.

The insect nest could be externalized and placed in an environment suitable for development.

Without a doubt, this place was very good. Moreover, the terrain here was complex and convoluted, and without insects or radiation rats, everyone except Gao Xin would get lost.

"Stay here, don’t wander around, we’ll be back soon."

After settling the glass people, everyone jumped down through a cave entrance.

Below was a square established on the edge of Magma Lake. Many tunnels converged here, and various Radiation vendors were setting up stalls and strolling about.

The temperature was extremely high and very stifling, with hardly any lamps around, the light entirely dependent on the magma lake.

However, the color of the magma was strangely eerie, crimson with a tinge of green glow.

The area was filled with a high concentration of chemicals, causing a faint poisonous fog to spread through the air.

However, those walking here treated it as if it were nothing unusual.

Even more, everyone felt quite energetic; their high-energy cells were continuously absorbing radiation, sending waves of warmth through them, making them feel exhilaratingly charged.

Here, everyone was essentially recharging their energy indefinitely.

"Where is this ’Thief of the Heavens’ you mentioned?" Gao Xin didn’t see anyone selling knives, but he did see many shops.

The one-eyed man said, "He’s not here right now, but he comes every day. Hmph, I don’t know what he’s thinking—no one cares about him, yet he keeps foolishly shouting his sales."

"Well, dear sir, why not have a look at our Quenching Fire Gang’s store first?"

The one-eyed man led them to a section where various weapons, cybernetic prosthetics were recycled, repaired, and sold.

There were also some junk recycling spots. Many Tiger Level Radiation vendors were hauling loads of junk to sell, exchanging them for just a handful of points.

"Why so few? I have ten tons, fifteen points per ton, you should give me one hundred and fifty points."

"What are you thinking? With so many impurities, are these all grade C materials? Isn’t this special steel? Isn’t this aluminum alloy? And these parts, made from petroleum products, are even less valuable."

"Ah? But... but these items are all smelted together, how can I separate them out?"

"That’s why we have to separate them. We collect nanomaterials, not trash containing nanomaterials. If you can’t separate them, you can only take this payment. Take it or leave it."

That person had no choice; there was garbage everywhere here, and if he didn’t sell, there were plenty of others who would.

This was essentially a thankless task that consumed time and effort, and he could only leave sulkily with the few trade vouchers he got.

However, some felt as if they had stumbled upon treasures, running over with a bucket in their arms.

"Make way, make way."

Others were unhappy: "Line up, don’t you know the rules?"

The man disdainfully said, "Rules? Haha, Quenching Fire Gang, I want to go in and sit down to talk."

"What kind of good stuff is it? If it’s junk, we might just kick you out." A man clad in a stylish Fiery Fire Mecha came out to greet him.

The man patted the bucket: "Naturally, it’s good stuff, let me in first."

Thus, the people from Quenching Fire Gang escorted him into the shop’s interior, also for privacy protection.

It wasn’t long before the man came out, empty-handed and quickly walking away.

Some Radiation vendors exchanged glances and quietly followed him.

Though no one knew what he sold, since he had been taken inside for a talk, he surely had quite a bit of cash now.

Clearly, he was already being targeted, and the Quenching Fire Gang was out of the picture in this matter.

The one-eyed man chuckled upon seeing this: "That guy again, the few who are eyeing him are going to be unlucky."

Gao Xin asked, "Oh? Is he that strong?"

The one-eyed man spoke with a strange expression: "That guy just now, Grey Mist, is a common sub-Tiger Level in direct combat."

"However, he is also a cyber hacker, and he has carved out a base for himself in the garbage mountain, surrounded by heavily secured mechanisms and various smart weapons."

"He always manages to find good things to sell here, and any fool daring to rob him is literally seeking death."

Gao Xin glanced at the man’s retreating figure and had a few insects follow him to see what was going on.

Then the one-eyed man led Gao Xin and the others to a reception room: "Sir, we still don’t know how to address you."

"Tai Sui." Gao Xin stated plainly.

The four cyborgs exchanged glances, unfamiliar with the name, then one young man went out to inquire about it.

Gao Xin was indifferent; apart from Garbage Mountain, there was no place to hide in the entire Champagne Territory.

Moreover, the fleeing culprits had been seen heading towards Garbage Mountain, and such movements couldn’t be concealed.

The one-eyed man took out a thin, light screen and handed it to Gao Xin: "The Sea King Port armor you’re wearing, we can modify it; you might use this to design it yourself."
