Chapter 90: Setting Off to Find Materials
【Four Elements Harmonizing Agent】, 【Star Pulse Resonance Dew】.
Both potions meet Huang Hong's requirements. According to the data provided by the Apothecary Guild, under optimal conditions, the two potions will have roughly the same effect on attribute enhancement.
In addition to their basic attributes, both also have some additional enhancements.
【Four Elements Harmonizing Agent】After taking it, you can achieve a state of 'Four Elements Balance'. The so-called 'Four Elements Balance' is actually the protection of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind, which is a considerable improvement.
However, its side effects are quite severe. Once the "four-element balance" is broken, it will trigger an elemental upheaval, and the element itself will also be affected.
Breaking the "Four Symbols Balance" is not difficult; a sufficiently intense battle is enough.
In other words, after using the [Four Elements Harmonizing Agent], you should try to avoid dangerous battles.
As for the Azure Dragon and White Tiger in the materials, they are more of a gimmick.
In comparison, the [Star Pulse Resonance Dew] is much better. Its only side effect is that it must be placed on the ground. Otherwise, whether it flies into the sky or burrows underground, the balance of the potion will be broken, causing the potion to become ineffective.
Of course, standing on the ground here doesn't mean you can just stand there blankly, and you can't even walk or jump normally. As long as you don't go more than one or two meters away from the ground, you can connect to the earth's veins.
As for the "star vein sensing," it is a super-wide sensing method that uses stars and earth veins to roughly sense the flow of energy, which is quite a practical ability.
Both of these potions are only available for purchase by premium members. According to data provided by the Apothecary Guild, they are effective for those with a base attribute of 19 points or less.
Moreover, because both drugs work in a unique way, they tend to cause less drug resistance after use.
But as I said before, talking about efficacy without considering dosage is just being irresponsible. If you want to increase your attribute from 18 to 19 points by taking these two kinds of medicine, you would probably need at least a hundred doses, or even more.
More importantly, the effects of these two medications take some time to materialize.
Huang Hong looked at the prices of the two potions: the [Four Symbols Harmonizing Agent] cost 200 million credits, and the [Star Pulse Resonance Dew] cost 210 million credits.
After a moment's thought, Huang Hong abandoned the [Four Symbols Harmonizing Agent], simply because it would have too much of an impact on the battle.
Before establishing his own mechanical fortress, hunting monsters was Huang Hong's main source of energy. If he had to take care of the "Four Elements Balance" while fighting, it would be too dangerous for him.
The [Star Pulse Resonance Dew] is much better. Even if you have to fly or teleport, it's just that the potion will become ineffective. With the old gourd around, as long as you get one potion, he will have an endless supply of potions.
After setting his target, Huang Hong began to worry about his credit points. He calculated that even if he sold all the high-quality blood ginseng, plus the credit points he had left, he would only have 1.6 to 1.7 million credit points, leaving him with a shortfall of nearly 500,000 credit points.
To be honest, if he had enough credits, Huang Hong would have bought the finished potion directly, even if there was a huge price difference.
After all, the sooner he uses it, the sooner he can enjoy it; the sooner he buys the potion, the sooner he can improve his attributes.
But since that's not possible, Huang Hong has to consider the cost-effectiveness.
This time I just happened to run into a bloody mess, which is why I made a fortune. I don't know when I'll have such good luck again.
Since we're going to have to go out anyway, we should try to save money wherever possible.
In addition to purchasing finished products with credits, you can also have the Apothecary Guild create corresponding potions for you by providing the main materials.
The Star Pulse Resonance Dew has three main materials. Submitting each one will reduce your credits by 50.
Meteorite dust is not a concern, as this material is too reliant on luck, and the Apothecary Guild already has its own stock.
The Neural Resonance Nanobots can be manufactured in the Dragon Fortress, but only if a material called the Breath Worm's brain fluid is submitted.
Coincidentally, the cave containing the earth's spiritual essence happened to contain monsters like the Spirit Worm.
In other words, if he's lucky, Huang Hong might only need to make one trip to gather both materials, saving him 100 million credits.
After inquiring about some details, Huang Hong left the Apothecary Guild and headed straight for the Mission Hall.
Through communication with the service robot, Huang Hong confirmed the manufacturing process of the neural resonance nanorobot.
In fact, neural resonance nanorobots can be viewed as a tool; if injected directly into the body, they can significantly enhance neural response capabilities. They can also be used in conjunction with some special mechanical constructs to achieve neural connections.
At the same time, Huang Hong also realized that what was truly precious was actually the brain fluid of the Spirit Worm, which was an auxiliary material for creating the intelligent brain. To be honest, using the brain fluid of the Spirit Worm to create neural resonance nanorobots was somewhat of a waste.
After confirming the intelligence, Huang Hong didn't even have time to rest and set off again without stopping.
Just as Huang Hong left the Dragon Fortress and was about to leave the network coverage area, his watch vibrated slightly, indicating that he had received a new message.
Huang Hong clicked to view it and found that it was a notice from Wuyun Technology, saying that a small auction would be held in a week, and the notice also included information on some of the auction items.
After watching it, Huang Hong closed it, determined that if he could return within a week, he would go and join in the fun.
The Caverns of Kamo are located in the Wind-Eroded Mountains, which are located south of Hellfire Peninsula; the two are adjacent areas.
There's not much to say about the Wind-Eroded Mountains themselves; they're not only barren, but monsters are also rare. However, the Kamo Caves located beneath the Wind-Eroded Mountains are a completely different world, filled with interconnected caves and strata, and their overall area is much larger than that on the surface.
The cave is named after a civilization whose remains were unearthed there. Archaeologists determined that the civilization's name was transliterated as "Kamo," hence the cave's name.
Even now, the Kamo Caves have not been fully explored, and traces of the Kamo civilization are still found in the caves from time to time.
After Huang Hong entered the wind-eroded mountain range, he looked around and saw barren mountains everywhere, with howling winds eroding the rocks into pits and hollows.
In this area, there is more than one entrance to the underground cave, and due to crustal movement, the original entrances are often blocked and new entrances appear from time to time.
Moreover, nobody knows where those new entrances lead, and it's normal for forks in the road or dead ends to appear.
The earth vein essence that Huang Hong is looking for can only be found in the deepest layers of the earth, so in order to save time, the best way is to find a guide who is familiar with this place and let him lead the way.
Fortunately, such guides are not hard to find.
