After dealing with the golden snakeskin, Yang Zheng quickly returned to his rented apartment in the real world.
The most important thing right now is to make the armor as soon as possible.
When is it not okay to make money?
Now that he has this Two Realms Pearl, he can go in and make money anytime, anywhere.
At present, enhancing individual combat capabilities is still the best approach.
Last night, he swallowed the pulp of a strange fruit, and his body has been strengthened, becoming extremely powerful.
Unlike those martial arts novels where one can instantly become a peerless master after consuming rare and precious treasures, this is not the case here.
However, after being enhanced by the alien fruit, they can be considered among the people with the highest physical fitness on Earth.
If he were to learn some martial arts techniques or secret manuals, it probably wouldn't be long before he could become a peerless master.
Now that personal strength has improved, weapons and equipment must also be upgraded accordingly.
After all, that small world is full of mystery and the unknown, so we must strengthen our defenses.
The higher the defense, the higher the safety level.
Staring at the golden snakeskin in his hand, Yang Zheng pondered for a moment, thinking to himself, "I'll go out and buy a sharp knife first, and then I'll cut it after it grows bigger in six hours."
"I also need to buy some glue, needles, thread, and other materials; they're essential for making nails..."
That's just Yang Zheng's personality; as long as it's something he's planned and can do, he'll do it as soon as possible.
He placed the golden snakeskin in a space on the second floor, and then rode his electric scooter out to shop.
There are many things to buy in the new house.
If possible, he wants to buy everything at once today.
When Yang Zheng went out, he checked the time. It was only a little past six in the morning, just in time to go out for breakfast.
By the time we got back with all the groceries, it was already 9:30 in the morning.
Calculating the time, the snakeskin hidden upstairs was brought out from the small world around 6 a.m., so it would be about 12:30 p.m. six hours later.
It will take another three hours for it to grow bigger.
During this break, he can finally clean the house thoroughly.
This two-story villa with its own courtyard still has a lot of old furniture inside, probably left by the previous landlord.
Inside the living room, the old sofa, dining table, and chairs were all there.
Even the kitchen utensils were all there, which saved him a lot of trouble and money.
What surprised Yang Zheng the most was that air conditioning was installed in almost every room, both upstairs and downstairs.
It's one of those old-fashioned, one-way air conditioners that consumes a lot of electricity.
Yang Zheng checked each air conditioner and found that two of them were broken or lacked refrigerant, while two others were still usable.
The air conditioner in the master bedroom on the first floor where he is currently living is working and the cooling effect is good.
Starting today, he'll have air conditioning, and he'll never have to worry about waking up in the middle of the night because of the heat again.
I cleaned the air conditioner in the bedroom a bit, especially the inner mesh of the air outlet. If it hasn't been used for a long time, it has to be removed and cleaned.
Otherwise, when the air conditioner is turned on, there will be a strange smell in the room that makes you feel carsick, and he will still deal with that.
He spent the entire morning cleaning.
He cleaned and wiped all the frequently used items, including the living room and kitchen.
To be honest, he's not someone who likes doing housework, although he seems hardworking and diligent when he's working.
But I really dislike tedious housework.
He'll probably only do a thorough cleaning like this once when we move in. Unless he really can't stand it anymore, he definitely won't bother with it after that.
You know, he's the kind of person who doesn't even want to fold his blankets.
In that old rented room, the bed was always the same whether I woke up in the morning or came back at night.
He wouldn't bother tidying up unless a girl was coming over.
Back when he worked at the company, he always dressed smartly for work and seemed very particular, but his home was a complete mess.
Why did he rent a place outside?
It's all for the sake of being more comfortable and at ease.
When I was working, the company actually provided dormitories for them, with six people in each dormitory room.
That's how it is living in a dormitory; you have to pretend.
Everyone should behave in a very hygienic and well-mannered manner.
They wash their hair and clothes every day, and take turns cleaning every day. Everything seems very particular and tidy.
Because if you're too lazy or unhygienic, you'll be looked down upon by others, which is very annoying.
Of course, there are a few individuals who don't pretend at all; perhaps they are genuinely meticulous people, or perhaps they are simply lazy and unhygienic.
But such people are extremely rare.
Most people living in this world do not actually follow their own inner thoughts; they are always performing and pretending.
Living like this was too tiring, so Yang Zheng moved out to rent a place, since the company provides a housing subsidy anyway.
Living alone means I can do whatever I want, and watching short videos is much more convenient.
Sometimes, if I feel too tired after get off work to move, I can lie down whenever I want, and I can skip showering or laundry whenever I want.
You can play on the computer or your phone as late as you want, without needing headphones or worrying about the sound of your keyboard disturbing your roommates' rest.
And you won't be constantly woken up by your roommate's phone ringing.
Time flies when you're focused on something.
By the time we finished cleaning the first floor, it was already noon.
It's too remote here, and it's inconvenient to go out for a meal. Yang Zheng ate instant noodles for lunch, too lazy to go out, mainly because it was too hot outside.
The stray dog that lives under the awning in the front yard ran away sometime ago, and I haven't seen it all morning.
I was thinking of throwing it a sausage, but I'll pass now.
After a quick lunch, I sat down for a smoke and video chatted with my parents. My father looked alright. Then I took my cutting tools and went upstairs.
The golden snakeskin has grown larger.
Perhaps due to being roasted by high temperatures, this golden snakeskin, which was originally sixteen meters long, has now shrunk to just over ten meters.
The width of the snake's body has also been reduced by one-third.
However, it still shines brightly and is completely intact.
Yang Zheng picked up the newly bought large scissors, which were used to cut sheet metal, but he didn't know if they would work.
He grabbed the scissors and sniped away, but it was all for naught.
After the golden snakeskin shrank, it became even tougher and more elastic.
The scissors were clamped on it; the translucent, thin, soft snakeskin kept contracting, stretching, and thinning, sliding around without any point of leverage.
In addition, the hard snake scales on the outside were stuck in it, making it impossible for the scissors to budge it at all.
After trying for a while, Yang Zheng tried a sharp cutting knife, but it still didn't work.
After struggling for half an hour, sweating profusely, I hadn't achieved anything.
In the end, Yang Zheng had no choice but to give up in frustration.
Staring at the huge golden snakeskin on the ground, which wasn't even marked, he sighed helplessly, not knowing what to do.
We have the raw materials to make top-tier defensive armor, but we just can't figure out how to use them.
You can't exactly wrap yourself in this giant snakeskin, can you?
That way, we can't get anything done.
trouble!
This is such a hassle!
"Forget it, let's roll up this snakeskin and keep it safe for now. We'll see if we can find a way to divide it in the small world later."
"Forget about Earth, he wouldn't dare take this rare treasure out of the world..."
I glanced down at the time; it was already past one in the afternoon.
I've wasted too much time today on this snake skin, and haven't even been able to enter the small world to make money.
I can't waste any more time this afternoon; I have to go into the small world and get something to sell for money.
With this in mind, Yang Zheng immediately went downstairs to his bedroom, changed into all his weapons and equipment, and prepared to enter the small world to explore.
