"Apart from tires, there's nothing else I can afford."
Xiao Han sighed inwardly, staring at the rolling tire on the virtual interface, and remained silent for a while.
It would be truly foolish to spend 100 gold wolves to buy a tire.
After Xiao Han took over the city's wealth, including the wealth he later plundered from the wasteland, the total exceeded 1,000 gold wolves.
However, this money cannot be spent recklessly. Cities need to invest a lot of funds for development. After the old forces are eliminated, the new forces need to establish new trade relations with surrounding cities, all of which require financial support.
Without intervention from high-level military forces, once war breaks out, it will be a test of the economic strength of both sides.
Sufficient funds are needed to improve armed forces.
Furthermore, since his rank skyrocketed, the effectiveness of the off-road vehicle in the early stages has been greatly reduced. Xiao Han, dressed in a hamster suit, runs faster than the off-road vehicle. If he had the Radiant Aid, he would be a flying mouse, ignoring the terrain, like a skyrocketing rat.
All these factors combined mean that this off-road vehicle is currently only of research value.
Moreover, since the tires can be removed, Xiao Han can have the alchemists study them and replicate the new tires; it might not be difficult.
Rubber, perhaps similar materials can replace it.
"The items in the shop are all what I need right now. The sooner I get them, the more they will help me. But if I go to hunt for magic crystals, I can only challenge a certain type of gold-tier creatures. It's best to challenge them if they are seriously injured, on the verge of death, or newly promoted gold-tier creatures."
Xiao Han thought to himself, "I've got my eye on Golden Creatures."
It's hard to say what stage his full-power combat strength is at. Eating a lucky clover gives him 100% paralysis, which has a slight effect on enemies on the Golden Road, only a few steps behind pseudo-gold.
It's worth mentioning that these lucky clover pieces placed in the wristband are perhaps a blessing from a bewitching goddess, radiating a shimmering starlight, needing no water of time to nourish them.
Perhaps they were too full from eating earlier and weren't hungry.
"Thinking about these things is useless. We don't necessarily have to risk hunting golden creatures. Let's strengthen Titan City first. The Chaotic Land is so big. There might be magic crystals stored among the various forces. If we can't compete for them, we can exchange items."
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Han gave up the idea of hunting the golden creature.
Refining magic crystals requires sophisticated equipment, which the impoverished city of Titan lacks.
In the North, the number of golden creatures is quite abundant, but they are scattered throughout dangerous places.
Nearby to the land of chaos lies a swamp inhabited by ferocious venomous creatures. Among them is the three-headed dragon, one of the four great gods of Norse mythology, who dwells there, strictly adhering to the covenant he made with the gods, and refusing to leave even in death.
Moreover, at the end of the Pure Moon Swamp, where toxins surge and poisonous fog permeates, lies the entrance to the Poison Dragon Swamp.
The time was not yet ripe. After realizing that killing the golden creature was not feasible, Xiao Han turned his attention to a piece of ore stained with black blood.
The black blood did not flow; instead, it was frozen on the surface, containing an ominous aura.
"Black ore... is not very useful in itself. For ordinary people, it is a good tool for cracking walnuts. However, according to Kosenberg's books, it is the main material for forging black steel. Black steel is the most durable refined steel in the manufacture of guns and cannons. It once set off a wave of mining black ore veins that lasted for a hundred years until a new generation of iron ore emerged and replaced this popular gun material in the world. Only then did the history of black steel fade away."
Upon seeing the name of this product, Xiao Han immediately thought of an exam planned by Evelyn, involving identifying materials from pictures and finally "soaking" in a hot spring together.
"However, ordinary black-veined ore is buried at a depth of about a thousand meters, but this black-veined ore is buried at a depth of ten thousand meters, and has the potential to transform into blood-veined ore."
Black-veined ore evolves by devouring blood. The older and more powerful the blood, the more amazing its potential. There is a certain chance that it will transform into blood-veined ore. The veins are formed by the essence of blood and intertwine. The steel forged from this is called blood-veined steel, which has better conductivity.
The main material for guns and cannons started with black steel, and over three thousand years of development, the technology has been constantly evolving and emerging.
Once upon a time, the Holy Light Divine Court used its mineral resources to forge Holy Pattern Steel through its devotion to the Holy Lord.
Weapons forged from this material have appeared on battlefields opened up by various parties, increasing damage to demons tenfold. They are often polished into bullets, crossbow bolts, and pellets, causing the demon army to be routed at the start of battle. The demon god was unwilling to accept this and was good at sowing discord. Various forces infiltrated and infiltrated the divine court, stole some of the technology, and developed the magic-patterned steel.
This type of steel used in the military field marks the birth of a unique type of steel among various forces, and the five continents have also ushered in a new round of offensives from the demon race.
Technology is often spurred by war, a fact that Xiao Han understands very well.
He remained silent for a moment, his entire body enveloped in the emerald light of the sacred tree, his bright red pupils gleaming with a glassy luster.
"There's only one emergency kit left. It might contain items that can help in the current situation, so we can give it a try."
Xiao Han made up his mind and opened the last emergency kit.
The moment the box was opened, a burst of dazzling light burst forth, hazy, vibrant, and ethereal, like interwoven rosy clouds, containing a trace of time and space intersecting.
Xiao Han's expression turned serious. He understood the true purpose of the Crimson Demon Eye and took advantage of the box opening to explore its operating trajectory.
Items found only on Earth, such as Want Want milk, motorcycle helmets, and off-road vehicles, might lead you home if you follow this clue.
Instantly, taking advantage of the moment the treasure chest opened, the Demon Eye activated at full power, surging with blazing flames. Using a trace as a guide, he analyzed the surroundings and immersed his mind in it. A path to heaven appeared before his eyes.
