Chapter 192: Chapter 176: Warehouse

"It seems I really need to get some space items."

Li Cheng muttered as he reassembled the appliances. As a Mechanical Master casting spells with existing tools, one cannot possibly fill all the precious backpack slots with bits and pieces like light bulbs, power banks, back scratchers, and four-wheel drive cars, right?

It’s not like running a dollar store or a wholesale market for small commodities in Yiwu.

After deciding to take a trip to a shabby street, Li Cheng looked at the last new item in his backpack.

It was a deep purple paper cutting of a snake with eight heads and eight tails, its edges charred. This was the last Shikigami that Jiang Zhihui had brought out before his death.

[Item Name: Shikigami Paper Cutting·Orochi (Damaged)]

[Type: Ritual Tool (Consumable)]

[Quality: Fine]

[Special Effect: Summoning of the Shikigami. Temporarily summons a disaster-causing snake with eight heads and tails, lasting up to 10 minutes]

[Consumption: 500 points of Spiritual Power Value, no less than 5000L of human blood]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Use Conditions: User must have Onmyoji-related heritage]

[Note: This item is a one-time consumable, currently damaged and unusable, but might be repairable in some way]

[Note: Orochi, known for its eight heads and tails]

The paper cutting strictly requires Onmyoji-related heritage; Li Cheng couldn’t use it himself, so he decided to auction it off—given its fine quality even in a damaged and unusable state, it could definitely reach a perfect level once repaired.

This mission also triggered two new traits, [Helicopter Destroyer: +30 Sanity Limit, +10% Damage to Vehicles]

The accompanying image is of Li Cheng riding a Bat Wing Motorcycle up a high building, causing the Chengzhe Group’s helicopter to crash.

[A Man’s Fury: +1 Constitution]

The accompanying image is of Li Cheng using the [Demon Exchange] skill, smashing the Seoul National Assembly Hall into pieces with a Gray Rain Meteor.

These two traits are rare as they only have positive effects without any negatives, and were listed immediately.

Additionally, the Holographic Bone Corridor recorded a skill from both White Fox and Jiang Zhihui.

[Temporary Skill Name: Mini Gravity Energy Ball]

[Type: Spiritual Energy]

[Special Effect: Gravity Binding. Fires a gravity energy ball that significantly increases gravity within a small area centered around the energy ball]

[Consumption: 50 points of Spiritual Power Value]

[Cooling Time: 20 seconds]

[Note: Before Newton discovered gravity, people could fly freely in the air]

The gravity energy ball recorded in the Bone Corridor is a weakened, youthful version of White Fox’s, affecting only a three-meter diameter space and far from crushing reinforced concrete.

Correspondingly, the consumption of Spiritual Power Value is much lower.

[Temporary Skill Name: Summoning Technique: Thousand Paper Cranes]

[Type: Summoning]

[Special Effect: Feather Crane Blessing. Summons a paper crane with some mobility and ability to understand basic commands, lasting up to 2 hours]

[Consumption: 20 points of Spiritual Power Value]

[Cooling Time: 2 hours]

[Note: Upon reaching usage 360 times, the skill can be enhanced]

[Note: When one party is in trouble, cranes will come from all directions]

"It’s not a thousand times, so I’m not really convinced."

Li Cheng rolled his eyes and mocked. Whenever a disaster occurs, individuals, businesses, and organizations from various sectors of Japanese society must inevitably send thousand paper cranes to the affected areas.

Hanshin Earthquake, Thousand Paper Cranes. East Japan Earthquake, Thousand Paper Cranes. West Japan Floods, Thousand Paper Cranes. Noto Earthquake, Thousand Paper Cranes.

Even if it means using precious disaster relief transportation resources and not donating emergency supplies first, we have to deliver the thousand paper cranes to show blessings, thoughts, and encouragement. It highlights a self-moving gesture.

Even during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, thousand paper cranes must be sent to the Ukraine Embassy to show that Japan always stands with the United States and Ukraine.

"360 use conditions are not very strict, just consider it as an idle skill."

Li Cheng stretched and went back to his bedroom for a big sleep. Gray Rain walked out of the study with a disappointed face, she indeed did not find a place selling elementary school diplomas.

——————

In the following few days, Li Cheng mainly did these things.

First, he bought a new set of Sea Shark Type Single Soldier Exoskeleton.

Second, he auctioned the [Shikigami Paper Cutting·Orochi] for 6500 Game Coins.

Usually, the price of fine quality equipment items are generally around 2000-4000 Game Coins, and perfect quality items can go up to ten thousand.

The Orochi paper cutting sold for such a high price because it was repairable.

The third thing was to place a commission with Fubao Pavilion and other brokers to purchase a space item.

The internal space must not be smaller than two standard containers, and it must come with a sorting and storage function, where items can be accessed at any time.

Space items are relatively rare, Li Cheng didn’t expect to get it in a short time, but unexpectedly, less than a week later, Zhangsun Yao from the World Nuclear House sent a message.

[Zhangsun Yao: I found the item you wanted, check the product list]

The message included dozens of different types of space items, such as the classic Storage Ring, the Universal Capsule from Dragon Ball comics, and a large bag resembling the Human Species Bag from Journey to the West.

[Ant: That fast?]

[Zhangsun Yao: Money makes the world go round]

This statement is indeed true, according to conventional practice, an employer pays a brokerage fee after the broker completes the commission. However, what really motivated Zhangsun Yao to use her connections and help find item information was the potential shown by Ant.

His leveling speed was too fast; previously, he was a newbie suffering from tough conditions like Insect Lord Demon infection, but now he has the leisure and financial resources to purchase single-purpose, expensive space items.

Moreover, as far as Zhangsun Yao knew, Ant seemed to not have joined any major guilds.

This means he has always been a lone wolf.

’Tsk, I knew I should have been nicer when I first met Ant, whatever it took to lure, ahem, invite him to World Nuclear House.’

Zhangsun Yao smacked her lips in the office, and let out a long, mixed-emotions sigh.

Could this be what a genius is...

Li Cheng was unaware of Zhangsun Yao’s sigh, glanced at the product information, and picked one.

[Ant: I’ve chosen this one.]

[Zhangsun Yao: Okay, the seller’s price is 4800, I’ll charge you 2% brokerage fee, which is 96. Will it be an offline delivery or do you pick it up from the Lousy Street storage locker yourself?]

[Ant: Lousy Street storage locker.]

The seller stores the item in a designated storage locker in the Lousy Street Bank, and the buyer goes to pick it up themselves. Both buyer and seller do not meet each other to ensure privacy and security.

Half an hour later, Li Cheng logged into the killing field and got the space item. A palm-sized, toy-like red container.

[Item Name: Automated Three-Dimensional Warehouse]

[Type: Space Item]

[Quality: Fine]

[Special Effect: Personal storage. Built-in 100*75*25m large space, items can be accessed at any time]

[Consumption: 6 Spiritual Power Value]

[Cooling Time: 1 second]

[Use Conditions: None]

[Note: Are you stocking up on grain? Or guns?]
