"I obtained a Heart of Steel at the beginning of the cataclysm. I initially thought it was just a coincidence that it shared the same name as the Steel Armor, but as I unlocked more and more cores, I realized that it was no coincidence!"
Jiang Yuan paused for a moment, then raised his head and said, "The Heart of Steel is an essential item for upgrading the Steel Pattern Armor! Of course, in addition to the Heart of Steel, the core also contains a large number of Hearts of Earth and Hearts of Sky, which are upgrade items for the Earth Pattern Armor and Sky Pattern Armor, respectively!"
"You even noticed that!" The chubby guy's eyes were strange. He quietly asked, "Brother Yuan, to be honest, have you read any battlefield strategies?"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"Are you playing a game? A battle strategy guide!" Leng Yue slapped Xiao Pang hard on the shoulder, then smiled dangerously, "However, I think I saw a guide to seduction in someone's room. Shouldn't you explain that?"
"Hey, Brother Yuan, keep going, keep going!" Little Fatty shrank back and didn't dare to say a word. He didn't expect that this iceberg would be so shameless as to search his room.
Jiang Yuan ignored the little incident and continued, "To upgrade a set of basic armor to intermediate armor, you need one hundred armor cores and armor fragments of the same name. In addition, you need about one million low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals."
"One million!" the chubby boy exclaimed dramatically.
"Don't worry, the upgrade materials aren't a problem. At least I've already taken care of the armor core and armor fragments for you!" Jiang Yuan glanced at Little Fatty and Leng Yue and asked, "The key now is your attitude: do you want ready-made Void Spirit level armor or upgraded armor?"
He's been opening cores so many times lately that he's become numb. He doesn't even know how many armor fragments he's opened. He just treats them as collectibles and doesn't feel bad about giving them away.
"Of course it's going to be an upgrade!" Little Fatty answered without hesitation.
"There's one more thing to add. Upgrading the armor to the intermediate level doesn't mean you're done for now. It still needs a lot of Holy Spirit Crystals to nurture it. As you know, the intermediate level is a huge leap, so I estimate the cost of advancing will be terrifying!" Jiang Yuan revealed a meaningful smile.
"Do you need a lot of Holy Spirit Crystals?" Leng Yue asked.
"There are definitely a lot more! But in my opinion, the potential of tattooed armor is top-notch among all types of armor, so the choice is entirely up to you!" Jiang Yuan also wanted to put pressure on the two of them by using tattooed armor, after all, there was such a bottomless pit to fill, so they couldn't afford not to work hard.
"I want to get my nails tattooed!"
Leng Yue didn't need to think before speaking; her goal was to be the best, and clearly, tattooed nails met her expectations.
"Alright then, I'll choose to get a tattoo too!" Little Fatty chimed in after him.
"Fine, then you guys figure it out yourselves!"
Jiang Yuan took out two hundred armor cores and two million low-grade Holy Spirit Crystals.
"Brother Yuan, where are you going?"
"I'm superstitious; I'm looking for an auspicious location to open the core!"
After leaving a message, Jiang Yuan left with Ning Yanlan. He didn't want to reveal too much about the secret of the Heavenly Eye, otherwise it would be troublesome if the battlefield rules targeted him.
Moreover, he had something else to say!
Liu Zhaodi found information about the person with the Balance Talent, but he needed to confirm it.
"Where are we going?" Ning Yanlan asked, puzzled, after leaving the oath.
"I'm taking you to see someone!" Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and continued, "Also, there's something I need to confess!"
"Oh!" Ning Yanlan responded softly and then fell silent, though her eyes held a hint of comfort.
On the way from the West Gate to the Liu family, you can see the former South Gate in the distance. However, this time Jiang Yuan saw a dense horde of beasts and a bustling city edge.
"With the South Gate breached, countless families have been torn apart!" Jiang Yuanyuan sighed as she looked around.
Ning Yanlan gently patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's just that Nancheng was born at the wrong time."
Jiang Yuan nodded emphatically and said, "Only by being strong enough can Nancheng become a safe haven for the weak in the apocalypse!"
"But sometimes, can strength alone solve everything?" Ning Yanlan's mind went blank for a moment.
"If you can't solve it, it just proves you're not strong enough!" Jiang Yuan gently flicked Ning Yanlan's forehead and then continued, "You, stop overthinking. If there are things you can't solve, you can leave them to me. Don't try to be strong on your own."
Ning Yanlan smiled knowingly after hearing this. She pointed ahead and asked knowingly, "The Liu family is just ahead. We're not looking for Liu Zhaodi, are we?"
"The Liu family? How did you know I came from the Liu family?" Jiang Yuan panicked. Although he had decided to confess, being suddenly exposed still made him feel a little scared.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong?" Ning Yanlan smiled gently and nodded slowly, "Alright, let's go back then!"
"No, no, no, I really did come to see Liu Zhaodi!" Jiang Yuan could only admit.
"It's not gentlemanly to just stand there and make the girl wait!"
Before Jiang Yuan could explain, Ning Yanlan took his hand and led him toward the Liu family's house.
