Chapter 527: Chapter 407 Extremely Fond of the Enemy’s Resources - Part 1

```

"With the presence of this fire barrier, the pressure on the frontlines has decreased by nearly one-fifth." A sergeant said somewhat emotionally, the surging greenish flames giving off an ominous vibe, the dense scent of death making them uncomfortable even from a distance."

Yet, these flames easily intercepted the extraordinary creature insects spawned, forcing them to break through from other directions. This won’t cause pressure on other battle zones, our weapons, and the strong ones gathered here are enough to crush these insects!"

The more concentrated they are, the easier it is to annihilate them. Even without the enemy’s technical influence, we could simply deploy a few Firmament Wheels to thoroughly suppress this mobile anomaly."

However, the Firmament Wheel was developed because of the enemy’s influence, bringing that thing over is akin to delivering equipment to the enemy."

"The Proxy Agent shouldn’t be expending his power here..." Another sergeant shook his head slightly and didn’t continue. A soldier’s life is also a life, but if we can’t resolve this mobile anomaly, then most lives in this world will become nothing more than a number."

Is it worth exchanging the lives of soldiers for the Proxy Agent’s better combat state?

It’s worth it! The better the state of the Proxy Agent, the higher the possibility of defeating the enemy."

However, it’s somewhat late to say this now, as Zheng Yichen has already rushed into the mobile anomaly. From the outside, it looks like a tall greenish fire wall diagonally inserted into the fog of the mobile anomaly."

"Next is to wait for the results. Keep the lads alert, don’t let any insect escape! Although these damn insects will become a part of the ecology in our world in the future!!"

We stopped these insects too late, some have already successfully escaped, and most animals in this world have gone extinct due to environmental imbalance. The Firmament Wheel has protected some animals, but once these insects spread out, it’s virtually impossible for those animals to return to their original numbers."

It’s very difficult to completely eliminate these insects; in the future, they will become a malign part of the world’s ecology, impacting the normal ecosystem of our world long-term. Even if we resolve the Boundary Breakers, we will then have to engage in an enduring struggle with these insects, with a significant portion of our resources involved."

Battlefield scientists have figured out some characteristics of these insects already. They have strong mutative tendencies and once their numbers reach a certain level, they will congregate to form a hive. The hive will absorb and plunder the nutrients of the earth, turning the environment overgrown and barren.

Then it produces more insects that spread out...

We must continuously eliminate these insects; otherwise, their numbers will explode exponentially. Even if we can use the Firmament Wheel to annihilate most of them, these insects are born from the plundered nutrients of the world.

The cost of inaction is simply too great.

Inside the mobile anomaly, Zheng Yichen stepped on the soft ground below, his expression one of disgust. Hellfire quickly burned away the flesh carpet nearby, the greenish flames turning it into something like lit cotton fluff, swiftly burning to places out of Zheng Yichen’s sight."

But the ground where the fire had passed sprouted new flesh carpet almost immediately. Isn’t this thing almost like the fungus carpets of the insect race?

Zheng Yichen picked up a dark purple strand of flesh to examine. After being lifted, it continued to grow, branching out in tiny filaments like capillaries. Zheng Yichen’s vision was exceptional, and he could see the tiny capillaries performing something akin to breathing.

Hellfire burned it away again. Zheng Yichen stabbed his spear into the ground, spreading the Power of Death, and the surrounding flesh carpet rapidly decayed. However, this decay was halted after spreading just two hundred meters out."

"Boss, these are the scanning results." A projection screen appeared; tens of meters below the ground were also filled with dense ’blood vessels’."

"Damn it... feels like the planet’s got cancer." Zheng Yichen smacked his lips, his face full of disgust. This flesh carpet counts as a biological entity, but becoming such a creature really isn’t endearing to anyone."

He even tried to extract the ’blood’ from the flesh carpet, but there was no response. This thing doesn’t flow with blood, but something like a nutritional liquid, seemingly more potent than blood, but since it isn’t blood, his extraordinary abilities were of little use."

It’s like facing a robot and possibly drawing out its gasoline."

He directly scooped out a piece of the flesh carpet into a container. Zheng Yichen smudged some dark red liquid with his finger and tasted it with a grimace: "Tastes like dirt... But this stuff is really powerful."

"...Boss, you shouldn’t do that." Lilith looked at Zheng Yichen seriously. "I’ve already analyzed the components of this substance. Although it’s harmless to you, you shouldn’t just randomly try it."

"Components, I don’t understand them." Zheng Yichen looked perplexed at the component chart in front of him. He could tell that this substance was highly nutritious, a single drop could meet one’s energy needs for several days, yet the cost of producing it was the virtually permanent barrenness of the land."

```

"This substance is the best culture medium in my records, but due to the excess of extraordinary nutrients within, it would lead to severe mutations if a normal creature consumed too much. You can disregard this, but next time, you definitely can’t be so impulsive."

"So you’re saying it complements me? Then I won’t hold back—" Zheng Yichen tore off a large piece of the flesh carpet, the violent wind shredding it and squeezing out the dark red liquid from within.

When it came to acquiring resources during battle, he was always brutally straightforward, though he did have his limits. Apart from a fixed boundary, the rest was quite flexible and changeable. Of course, outside of combat, he definitely wouldn’t do this.

The liquid from the flesh carpet was consumed by Zheng Yichen as if it were water; this stuff was a highly concentrated nutrient material. Coupled with the feeding enhancement built into Zheng Yichen’s stomach, this liquid, slightly different from regular nutrients, also had an effect.

As for the issue of mutations? He could definitely ignore that. Not even the Skeleton behemoth’s Essence of Life could affect him, so this extraordinary nutrient solution was even less of a problem. Besides, Zheng Yichen had a whole piece of the Essence of Life at his disposal, which he could eat as a resource for feeding enhancement at critical moments.

However, when dealing with the Devouring Faction, he mostly used Sky Pillar’s energy, and other things were considered trivial.

Dealing with the Boundary Breaking Faction was different, Zheng Yichen particularly liked using their resources...

Furthermore, after dealing with those Devourers, Zheng Yichen received new feedback, though most of it concerned physical changes, rather than abilities. One enhancement affected the strength of his arms, similar to Iron Lungs, provided as feedback from the Devourer that pounded him with its fists.

There was another related to the soul, but Zheng Yichen hadn’t figured out exactly what it was. He only realized it had to do with the soul because his affinity with the cat spirit had suddenly increased. The last one pertained to blood absorption, an ability not overshadowed by his extraordinary abilities.

But upon some testing, he discovered this blood absorption was similar to feeding enhancement.

The results seemed quite favorable.

Zheng Yichen felt that if he encountered people who had trained a particular part of their body to be extremely tough, and defeated them, he could possibly assemble a passive version of the 13 Taibao Lateral Training? His arms, lungs, stomach—they all now had passive enhancement.

If he pieced it together, it would be more than thirteen, and moreover, he wouldn’t have to worry about failing.

"This stuff is pretty good, it rapidly restores my consumption, though it doesn’t provide any extra boost..." Zheng Yichen felt his body’s condition, the feeding enhancement working, but there was no increase in individual strength. However, recovery saw a notable improvement.

Even as Zheng Yichen continued drinking the extraordinary nutrient liquid extracted from the flesh carpet, the magnitude of his recovery was increasing, and the Life Force he had used up in setting fires was quickly replenished.

Although this recovery couldn’t temporarily break his own limits like looting could, if the recovery was fast enough, it was also quite exciting: "I feel like I’m becoming more and more demonic."

Zheng Yichen sighed, swinging the long spear, and sending out a Wind Blade. The approaching red heat sources all around were simultaneously severed, and the blood was drawn back by the swirling wind, merging into his black spear.

In the areas he passed through, the wind shredded the flesh carpet on the ground, and the collected extraordinary nutrient material was poured into the Universal Toolbox, which was able to process many things. With sufficient energy, handling this extraordinary energy liquid wouldn’t be a problem.

After all, the motorbike now mainly ran on star core batteries, making the energy absorption function nearly redundant. With ample energy, the abnormal nutrients were further refined and concentrated by the Universal Toolbox.

The liquid was refined into a solid form and stored away, becoming Zheng Yichen’s potions of health and mana during difficult battles.

"..." Ming Yue watched Zheng Yichen’s actions through the surveillance and couldn’t help but hold her forehead: "Why is it always like this?"

She hadn’t expected to encounter Zheng Yichen in this world. After their last encounter with him, which had led to the failure of their operation and forced withdrawal, her arrangements had been affected. Yet she hadn’t anticipated another encounter with Zheng Yichen.

Ming Yue found such probability hard to believe. She glanced at the people beside her; the person accompanying her on this mission was not Lu Jingming. Initially, she had thought she was lucky to arrive in a world ripe with opportunities.

But now it seemed she was unlucky. If anyone but Zheng Yichen, this Proxy Agent, had come, she wouldn’t have felt so dreadful. But it was Zheng Yichen who had come, and upon learning this, Ming Yue felt a bad premonition.

It would have been good if he could be dealt with by the Devouring Faction, but Zheng Yichen had defeated the Devouring Faction...
