Chapter 68 - 68: 68: Gods Creation Plan
At the same time when Jack Clark and his squad were being attacked, another squad led by Howard Lee in the other part of the city also encountered an assault.
The attackers were still a combination of rebels and ordinary cultivators, catching the squad off guard.
As both convoys were engaged in battle, a flying vessel resembling a airship floated at an altitude of ten thousand meters over the city, with several officers looking down from above.
Behind them, more than a dozen staff members were busily working in front of computers, with some of the sci-fi equipment constantly flashing with colorful lights.
“Report, the energy detector has detected two unfamiliar Fourth Layer Heaven fluctuations, but the other party is cunning and didn’t give us a chance to lock on.”
“In the citywide fixed-point lightwave detection, several suspicious moving crowds have been detected in the south of the city, and the Falcon Squad has been called to keep track.”
“Report, no suspicious targets were found around squad Al and A 5 during the attack.”
“Traces of a small group of rebels were found outside Ross Town, 47 kilometers east of the city. Shall we dispatch a mixed ground-air team to suppress them?”
“Keep monitoring, don’t worry about rhe small group of rebels. Our target is the main force of the Blood God Sect that fled here. Don’t scare rhe snakes off prematurely/’
“Yes.”
On the rooftop of the highest building in Lester City, General Laird Hawk, dressed in a military uniform, stood at rhe edge with a telescope, looking over the surroundings.
After a long time, Laird Hawk said in a deep voice, “These guys hide really well.
With so many ‘geniuses’ showing up, they still can control themselves from taking action/’
The adjutant next to him nodded slightly, “The people of the Evil God Sect have always been good at hiding. They’ve been working secretly for years, and only stood up this time.”
“Now that the Blood God Sect and the Giant God Sect were hit by the Federation’s Thunder, most of their experts were killed, and the rest became frightened birds.”
“These two days, our multiple attempts to bait them only lured out some ordinary cultists and it might be difficult to find them in the short term/’bender
“Also, I feel that the experts who followed the convoy should have been exposed, otherwise, only two squads would have been attacked. The ones they hate the most are the Federal Genius.”
Laird Hawk nodded slightly, “Your analysis makes sense, bur as long as they don’t want to give up the Koroya pathway, they won’t be able to hide for long.”
“By the way, rhe higher-ups are preparing to use this place as a trial point for the new generation, getting ready for the upcoming Gods Creation Plan/1
“Also, have the Logistics Department equip those freshmen with some auxiliary weapons. In rhe civilized era, the battles are still just about slashing each other, their techniques are too simple.”
Jack Clark and Justin Welan stood on the off-road vehicle in the middle of the squad, their eyes occasionally scanning the pedestrians with awe on rhe side of the road, wary of possible enemies.
At this moment, the Shield-wielding Justin Welan said enviously, “Jack, you’ve already killed three cultists, right? All of them are Second Layer Heaven.”
According to the school’s given price, a Second Layer Heaven cultist is worth 3 Contribution Points. That is to say, Jack Clark earned 9 points in just two days.
It was equivalent to the reward he received for two months at school.
“Not bad, just good luck,” Jack Clark smiled.
Although 9 Contribution Points seemed a lot, it was actually only equivalent to 9,000 dollars. In the blackmarket, it’s tens of thousands. And this stuff came from the lives of three Second Layer Heaven experts.
When calculated like this, one would find that the values of both sides were completely unequal.
However, many times the “price” cannot be calculated like this because Contribution Points can be exchanged for officially monopolized cultivation resources, which cannot be bought even with money.
Contribution Points can only be obtained through schools or official channels. No matter how rich you are, you can’t convert money into Contribution Points.
There won’t be a situation where a tycoon donates millions to the government and can get thousands of Contribution Points to waste at will.
In the High Martial Era, the rich were just wealthy. It was those peak powerhouses who controlled power and resources – those king-level existences that changed the colors of Heaven and Earth with a single thought.
This is also why people like Justin Welan, Matt Watkins, and others need to go to school.
Moreover, the exchange of high-level resources requires authorization. Ordinary cultivators don’t have the qualifications for exchanging high-level resources, so even if the rich can get some Contribution Points, they can only get low-level resources.
Justin Welan rolled his eyes, “I knew you would say that, “just luck,’ “not bad,’ what a ghost!.”
Facing Justin Welan”s complaints, Jack Clark just smiled and then reminded him, “Alright, we’ll talk more when we get back. Pay attention to our surroundings.”
“Yes.” Justin Welan”s countenance turned solemn, and he concentrated on his surroundings .Although they looked cool standing on the off-road vehicle, it was actually quite dangerous. If the enemy had sniper rifles, they would be the first targets, not the soldiers inside the Armored Car.
It was evident that they were treated as another type of bait, and most of the Freshmen noticed this.
However, no more attacks occurred during the morning.
At noon, everyone returned to the hotel to eat and rest.
According to the schedule, Jack Clark and the others had no tasks in the afternoon, and everyone could stay in the hotel to cultivate or team up to search for cultist tracks actively.
If it were in school, these students might rest after cultivating for two hours, but after experiencing continuous battles, everyone felt a sense of urgency.
Desperately wanting to get stronger.
As a result, Justin Welan and the others went to the Military Base for cultivation in the afternoon, but Jack came to the basement level one.
The hotel had been requisitioned as a lodging base for supporting students from various schools, and the underground garage was also converted, sealed off, and turned into the Logistics Department.
Seeing the youth coming out of the elevator, the female staff member behind the desk enthusiastically said, “Hello, what would you like to exchange?”
“I have an 80% discount exchange privilege at school. Can 1 use it here?” Jack asked.
The female staff member smiled and said, “Yes, both the school system and the military base here are connected to the Heavenly Intelligence System, and the privileges are universal.”
Jack nodded, “That’s good. I want to exchange two Level 1 Life Crystals.”
“Okay, please enter your school and Student ID on the computer for verification.”
Jack sat in front of the computer and entered South Sky Martial Height and his Student ID as required.
“Verification passed, please wait a moment.”
Soon, two white multifaceted small crystals appeared in Jack’s hand.
“By the way, Student Clark, here is a set of battle auxiliary items prepared by the military for you. Please check it.”
“Battle auxiliary items.” Jack was slightly startled, looking at the female staff member taking our a briefcase-sized box from the shelf behind her.
The female staff member put the briefcase on the table and reminded, “The items inside are explosive, please handle them carefully, and there’s an instruction manual after you open it.”
Explosives. Jack’s expression changed, and he did not dare to be careless.
Carrying the briefcase, Jack returned to the hotel room before deciding to exchange with his realm of thought.
Two life crystals were enveloped by an Invisible Power, silently turned into powder, but only 8 Points Attribute were converted this time.
Glancing at the attribute page, Jack focused his attention on rhe small box on the table, curious about what was inside.
Click! The briefcase was opened, and inside quietly lay nine differently shaped metal items, a sci-fi-style pistol, and an instruction manual.
“Triggered High-Explosive Metal Bomb, suitable for long-range delivery, explodes upon impact after disarming, effective killing range of 5 meters, shockwave coverage of 10 meters.”
“Sticky delayed bomb, suitable for special operations, can be attached to target objects with a choice of 3 seconds, 5 seconds, or 10 seconds delayed explosion, extremely strong penetration/’
“Induction Shock Bomb, suitable for long-range delivery, forms a shockwave instantly upon explosion, highly penetrating, extremely lethal to Fourth Layer Heaven organisms and below.”
“Black Steel Automatic Pistol, 20mm caliber, maximum ammunition capacity of 9 bullets, bullets propelled by special metal explosives, strong recoil, can blow up a regular Mutated Beast’s skull in one shot.”
“This item is given out for free for the first time, subsequent bombs and bullets can be exchanged with Contribution Points.”
After reading the instructions, Jack was a bit surprised, “The military’s newbie package? Bombs and pistols.”
Jack picked up the pistol, which was more like a hand cannon, and played with it for a while. With these items, they had more options in combat.
Whether it was the bombs or the Black Steel Pistol, they were small and did not affect carrying or switching use. Enemy would likely be caught off guard easily.
After examining for a while, Jack pur down the gun and prepared to do something serious. He hesitated as he looked ar rhe battle armor placed in the corner of the room.
His hesitation was whether to accumulate a few more days, save up 20 attribute points to strengthen Dragon Elephant Power and break through the Third Realm, or strengthen the defense of rhe battle armor first.
But after only a brief hesitation, Jack’s eyes became determined..
