Chapter 59 Waste Utilization
I write on the spot every day, and sometimes I have no idea what to do.
Lin Xiaocang paused for a moment, then continued, "However, Master, although your ice and lightning abilities have both been upgraded to level 7, this is still far from enough! After all, in Xia Country, there exists an extremely powerful level 8 Zombie King! Therefore, only by completely eliminating this Zombie King can we truly solve this huge problem of the zombie virus!"
Hearing this, Gu Qinghan's tone clearly revealed a hint of worry: "Level 8 Zombie King?"
Seeing this, Lin Xiyue hurriedly comforted her, "Wife, don't worry, I will be fine." After that, she gently pinched the back of Gu Qinghan's hand, as if trying to make her feel more at ease in this way.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaocang was sitting steadily on Gu Qinghan's palm, his legs dangling leisurely, looking quite relaxed. He said with a smile, "But don't worry, Mommy, Mommy! I'm here, and I'll definitely help you!"
Lin Xiaocang's adorable beige hamster, her voice filled with childish cuteness, made people feel pity for her. She continued, "Mom, please take me to the Pisces Space Warehouse. Let's go see what goodies I can dig out of the wasteland of Sakura Country. Mommy, you must come too!"
Lin Xiyue said to Gu Qinghan with a smile on his face: "Okay, wife, let's listen to her and see what she wants to do!"
Walking into the Pisces Space Warehouse, Lin Xiyue and Gu Qinghan were instantly captivated by the sight before them. The warehouse was filled with blue crystal cores piled high like a hill. Besides the blue cores, there were also some red, gray, and green cores, forming a small blue hill that emitted a faint glow.
Lin Xiaocang, a small beige figure standing in front of the crystal core pile, pointed at them with pride and excitedly introduced them to his mother and mommy, "Mom, Mommy, look! These are all the zombie crystal cores that the four of you killed in the wasteland of Sakura Country! I've been quietly collecting them all this time! It's a pity that I didn't have a physical body back then, so I couldn't do these things myself. But now it's different. I finally have my own body. Even though I'm just a little beige hamster, I can still do some work myself!"
Lin Xiaocang continued, "And, I've completely cleaned up all the harmful dirt left on these crystal cores! Now, not only can they be absorbed by humans and made into powerful weapons, but they can also be used to nourish me! Of course, besides eating crystal cores, I can occasionally eat various foods like humans! But my favorite is eating crystal cores, because they can quickly absorb and provide me with energy."
Finally, Lin Xiaocang stared at his short legs and excitedly told his mother and mommy, "Mom, did you know? We have tens of thousands of tons of various supplies stored in our Pisces space warehouse! These supplies are enough for us to eat for several lifetimes and never use up!"
Lin Xiyue looked at Lin Xiaocang and asked curiously, "So, Lin Xiaocang, you are also part of the Pisces space? Then, in your current physical state, can you leave the Pisces space with us?"
Lin Xiaocang hesitated and replied uncertainly, "Theoretically, it should be possible... But we still have to try it to know for sure."
Gu Qinghan cast her gaze towards the mountain of scrap metal to the side. She gestured with her hands and roughly estimated the weight of the scrap metal—it was actually over ten thousand tons! She couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, so much scrap metal! Xiaocang, did you collect all this from the wasteland of Sakura Country?"
Lin Xiaocang nodded and explained, "Yes, that's right, Mommy. I picked these up from the wasteland of Sakura Country. There are a lot of discarded things there, like guns, ammunition, scrap steel for nuclear weapons, abandoned planes, abandoned containers, abandoned cars, and so on. I think it's a shame to just throw them in the wasteland, and it will also pollute the environment, so I collected them all. It can be regarded as turning waste into treasure! I can also transform these scrap metals into some very powerful weapons!"
After saying that, Lin Xiaocang waited quietly for Lin Xiyue and Gu Qinghan to digest it. After seeing them nod in agreement, Lin Xiaocang seemed to be more confident in his skills and decided to demonstrate them on the spot.
Lin Xiaocang waved his arms, and a flash of light appeared. Unparalleled—the Twin Swords—appeared in mid-air like ghosts. However, surprisingly, the Twin Swords didn't retain their original form. Instead, they rapidly melted before Lin Xiyue and Gu Qinghan's eyes, transforming into a ball of molten iron.
Lin Xiaocang did not stop her actions. She waved her little hand and picked up an unknown piece of scrap iron from an inconspicuous pile of scrap iron nearby. Without hesitation, she controlled it and lifted it into the void. In an instant, the scrap iron was melted into molten iron and merged with the molten iron of the Twin Swords.
Then, Lin Xiaocang pulled out another crimson crystal core from the pile and quickly placed it into the molten iron. As soon as the crimson crystal core came into contact with the molten iron, it immediately emitted a dazzling light, as if it was undergoing some kind of miraculous reaction with the molten iron.
Lin Xiaocang stared intently at the molten iron until it was completely fused. Then she swiftly swung her hands around it, forging it into the exact same shape as the twin swords. The entire process was as smooth and seamless as flowing water, a breathtaking sight.
Finally, Lin Xiaocang looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, a smug smile on her face. She said smugly, "Okay, Mom, this new twin sword is yours. Give it a try next time you kill a zombie. I've incorporated the crimson crystal core of a level 6 zombie into it. I'm sure you won't be disappointed!"
Throughout the entire process, Xiyue and Gu Qinghan watched every detail of Lin Xiaocang's sword-forging, fearing to miss any crucial steps. Time passed minute by minute, and finally, in front of Lin Xiyue, the two floating twin swords slowly appeared.
The sheaths of the twin swords gleamed silver, as if forged from the stars. Lin Xiyue reached out her hands and carefully took them, feeling the cool touch of the sheaths. She gently took the twin swords in her hands and examined them carefully.
Suddenly, she drew both twin swords simultaneously and noticed that the originally silver surface of the swords had gradually turned red, as if they had been burned by flames. Furthermore, there were some incomprehensible rune patterns engraved on the swords, which seemed to contain some mysterious power.
While Lin Xiyue was concentrating on observing the Twin Swords, Gu Qinghan was also attracted by this magical change. She couldn't help but move closer, wanting to see it more clearly.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaocang wasn't idle. With another swift wave of her arm, Gu Qinghan's weapon, Tang Xiao, also floated in the air. She began to transform Tang Xiao again. Using the same technique and the same focus, she placed a red egg-sized crystal core into the Tang sword.
As the red crystal core melted into the molten iron, it slowly began to transform into Tang Xiao's original form, until the entire blade began to tremble slightly, as if resonating with the red crystal core. Seeing this, Lin Xiaocang nodded with satisfaction and then handed the forged Tang Xiao to Gu Qinghan.
"Mommy, this is your Tang Xiao. I've modified it!" Lin Xiaocang said flatteringly, "This Tang Xiao is much more powerful now than before. You'll know when you try it next time!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qinghan expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, Xiaocang." After that, she stretched out her hands, and Tang Xiao slowly fell into her palms. Like Lin Xiyue, she held the newly forged Tang sword in her hands and couldn't wait to use it to kill zombies.
Lin Xiaocang shook his little arms and legs, and said with cute eyes, "You're welcome, Mommy. By the way, are there two other young ladies outside? I can also help modify their weapons."
Lin Xiyue smiled and said to Lin Xiaocang, "Okay, we'll take you out to meet the other two companions. They are good friends and companions of your mother and me. Before we go to Xia Country, with Lin Xiaocang's help, we can strengthen our weapons. This way, we can be prepared for our trip to Xia Country."
