My Monster Fuses Everything

If it weren't for revenge, then there was only one possibility, Su Han's strength had caught their attention, and of course, the equipment in Huiyuan City's industrial park was also an important factor.

"Ge Ming"

Zhu Xiong called over Ge Ming, who asked, "Brother Zhu, what do we need to do?"

"Tonight, quietly prepare some swarms, nothing else, just being cautious. They probably won't cause any trouble."

Old Zhu was a cautious person. Ge Ming listened and nodded, saying, "I understand, I'll arrange it now."

Gan Xinglei pondered and asked, "What do you think they plan to trade after tonight, emptying their inventory?"

The two set up a strategical formation, wasn't it just to probe the other side? Now it seemed to be somewhat effective.

"Let's take the initiative first, anyway, the right to set the price is already leaning towards us. Tomorrow, let them have a look at the Vine Giant Rat, Blood-winged Tiger, and the Black Rock Tree Monster, throw in some tough stuff and stir up a big mess."

Trading is somewhat like fishing, baiting and attracting. Back and forth, there must always be one side that dominates. As for the Armed Forces' transaction, the Tree Domain was certainly welcoming, but the initiative had to be held in their own hands.

"With so many of them, there's definitely no shortage of the usual Lamp Tree crystals, Spiritual Energy mines, and monster flesh. We'll take as much as they have. Then there's the technology for production line transformation; if they could give that up, it would save us a lot of effort here. Professor Tian isn't omnipotent after all."

Zhu Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly, then he hinted, "And, I feel that there might be some kind of special weapon on that transport vehicle. Guarded so tightly by Third Order, it could be a Spiritual Energy weapon."

.....

"Damn, who really is the regular army?"

In a suite, Zhou Shanying took a drag of his cigarette, sitting morosely on the sofa.

"?"

Lu Changshan glared at him, "Where did you get the cigarette?"

"It was in the cabinet by the door. The Hua Zi smokes."

Zhou Shanying grinned sheepishly and took down the cigarette, Lu Changshan said gruffly, "Give me one too, you're right, it's like seeing a ghost."

He hadn't seen a Buddha, but had seen the Tree Domain's strange and formidable strength. If they changed into military uniforms, they would probably look more like a regular army than Linshui City did.

"They have everything, what about our trade?"

Zhou Shanying soulfully hit the core of the issue.

But unexpectedly, Lu Changshan and Lone Wolf looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Had I known you'd be this cowardly, I should have brought Chen Da back."

Lu Changshan cursed irritably, Zhou Shanying was baffled, then Lone Wolf's calm voice came through.

"The progress on the enhancement drug research and the rapid transformation of the industrial production line aren't directly related. Moreover, resources are something nobody considers too much. Don't get led astray."

Zhou Shanying's face turned awkward, and he quickly realized that he had indeed been led astray by that fatty, Zhu Xiong.

Learning that the opponent could also work on enhancement drugs, even Third Grade Superior ones, without seeing the actual items, he subconsciously felt that everything on his side was worthless.

"It doesn't matter, but without a dominant position, we'll definitely have to give up more in the trade. We in Linshui City are poor, so we've sent most of the saved professors to Wushan for protection."

Lone Wolf's face darkened; damn Old Bideng and his crying poor, all of them were slick operators.

"Old Lu, it's no use crying to me, I'm just a worker."

Lone Wolf directly addressed him, Lu Changshan stopped pretending and said, "This Huiyuan City, no, it should be called Tree Domain, occupies at least two cities and several towns and counties, not just expansive but both soft and hard powers are formidable. It's a gold mine. We definitely need to trade, but I need headquarters support. I might end up just being a middleman."

Lone Wolf looked at Lu Changshan disdainfully, saying, "If the trade goes through you, there'll be plenty of benefits."

His words were not about Lu Changshan taking bribes, but once Linshui City's importance increased, the resources provided by headquarters would definitely be more.

Lu Changshan chuckled sheepishly, yet he did not pick up on that comment; it was better to seem obliging when benefits came along.

"They're baiting us this way and showing off their muscle. The trade should be fine, but we can still pull for more control,"

"Do you want to show off our spiritual energy exoskeleton armor?"

"It's intended for use anyway, not some secret. And compared to their current scientific research power, isn't our advantage exactly in spiritual energy armaments?"

Whether Tang Fei or Tang Huo, their main research focus was on military engineering, specifically planes, cannons, rockets, and such. Together with other various military research institutes, a group of people gathered, continuously transforming weapons using the spiritual energy system.

The current spiritual energy exoskeleton armor is the newest equipment, but certainly not the strongest.

Even the little bits of information Lu Changshan heard were significant; a research team in the center aimed to create Hell Level spiritual energy missiles.

Lone Wolf remained silent for a while. He indeed couldn't make decisions on what to trade, but what he knew was very important as a reference for the general.

"Their monsters are superbly cultivated. That Blood-winged Tiger and the Vine Giant Rat both have strong traits, and I think they have another kind of subterranean worm-type Angel Envoy, the one used for farming,"

Talking about farming, Lone Wolf, already dark-skinned, looked even darker. Such an excellent Angel Envoy for stealth, reconnaissance, and surprise attacks, damnit, was being used for cultivating green belts.

From a combat perspective, giving such an Envoy to his team members would allow for cleaner and more efficient clearings of monster communities, greatly reducing casualties.

He took a deep breath, then said, "Find an opportunity to show off a bit, and collaborate with them. It's not just about making Linshui more secure. It could be a huge help to the Southwest Military Preparedness Force."

...

Both parties had their own plans but unanimously acknowledged the trade. The next morning, Zhu Xiong invited Lu Changshan and his team to start the Huiyuan City tour mode.

Though called a tour, it was actually more of a visit.

Riding on the Vine Giant Rat, they explored the area around West Mountain Villa, which originally had plantations and agricultural zones that were under reconstruction.

The controllability of the Vine Giant Rat made Lu Changshan and others envious.

A certain degree of vine control on the back allowed for armoring and remote command. Lone Wolf even thought of mounting a couple of Gatlings or similar weaponry on it, effectively creating a mobile artillery unit.

Then looking at the Blood-winged Tiger, its size wasn't much smaller than that of the Vine Giant Rat. Just its mobility alone was enough to surpass any equipment.

You see, no matter how agile a plane is, it cannot compare to a living creature, not to mention the difficulty of piloting in such a foggy environment was almost Hell Level.

Everything was going smoothly, of course, accompanying it were Lu Changshan, Lone Wolf, and a few others increasingly covetous the more they observed.

"Let's go near the wall and see."

Zhu Xiong noticed everything and knew exactly the effect needed, arousing the starter was the best way to handle things. He saw that the two men were eager yet somewhat calm, likely ready to reveal their trump cards.

Thus, he directly made a bold move, leading the two men straight to the vicinity of the city wall.

Both parties were almost playing open cards by now. At this moment, Lu Changshan's eyes blinked meaningfully, "Captain Zhu, is there still something good?"

"Pretty much, pretty much, it's just because you guys came, otherwise we wouldn't need to visit these. Here, these are the ones,"

Zhu Xiong chuckled and pointed at a few Angel Envoys and descendants nearby. In an open card game, having more bombs isn't the worst.

Lu Changshan followed the direction of the finger and suddenly saw several huge creatures manipulating rocks.

"These are why the city wall was built."

Those large monsters, with black rocks as muscles and vines as bones, controlled the rocks and slowly fused them together, then integrated them as part of the wall, repairing damaged areas.

Looking again at those areas, the entire wall appeared seamless, as if it was initially a single massive stone.

Lu Changshan's eyes were fiery with an eagerness that couldn't be contained. This thing... this thing was a divine artifact for building cities, and to build such majestic walls, they must have many... no, a very stable cultivation channel.

Zhu Xiong grinned, "Black Rock Tree Monster, has a certain degree of control over rocks and soil, specially handled by our camp for civil works. The ones next door aren't, those are Sentinel, city guard Angel Envoys, two types of mutation, Stab type for long-range attack, launches spikes, Corrosion type for long-range attack, launches highly corrosive acid, all induced by injectors.

If needed, they are also included in the trade items."

Zhu Xiong played his trump card, and Lu Changshan and Lone Wolf fell silent for a long while before finally speaking, "Captain Zhu, actually, we also have a kind of goods that can be traded, why don't you have a look?"

Zhu Xiong's eyes lit up, but he shook his head, saying, "I won't come, our lord will. He's arriving in Huiyuan City today."
