Chapter 1362 The Boss’s Nemesis
Claire is concerned about the qualification for the trial, while archaeology enthusiasts like Mu Guang are concerned about comprehensive intelligence.
So he was more concerned about, "How much consumption is there in the maze?"
Qu Jianlei smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This, there are more than 600 formations set up inside!"
"Hiss," Mu Guang took a breath of cold air. He knew the speed at which the formation devoured wealth. "Are they all at full capacity?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head, and in the other party's expectant eyes, he said lightly, "Overload!"
"Damn..." Mu Guang's mouth twitched, "This is... really too much!"
"We'll talk about the money later!" Qu Jianlei waved his hand, "Leave two people to be in charge of liaison, and everyone... can prepare to enter the maze!"
However, how many people present were ignorant? "More than 600 formations are overloaded", this news is too scary!
In fact, with a little calculation, you can guess the approximate consumption - even if you don't say too much, at least you can guess the order of magnitude, right?
Just this magnitude is enough to scare everyone present.
Even the paranoid was shocked, "No wonder I failed to advance to the next level. It turns out it's because... I don't deserve to succeed with my wealth!"
"We have to do something big!" Bentley said calmly, "Otherwise, even the Boss's Condensation Infant will be in danger."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked again. Yes, the most important thing at the moment is the boss’s advancement!
It took Jia Shuiqing more than a year to reach the Nascent Soul stage!
Qing Hu hesitated for a moment before speaking, "How about... selling the body of an Asura Nascent Soul to the military?"
She is used to doing things according to the rules, and this deal should be a happy outcome for everyone.
We have more than one Asura Yuanying corpse on our side, and the military is definitely willing to pay a high enough price to obtain this corpse.
Let alone 180 billion, now that Asura’s invasion is imminent, it is not impossible to negotiate a sale of a few hundred billion.
Anyway, after selling this Asura's corpse, we can get the other stuff together to ensure that the boss can practice with peace of mind for two years. It won't be a big problem.
Qu Jianlei thought about it, then finally smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Don't you want to go in and feel it first?"
Old Mrs. Jia was also a little tempted. She had entered the Skyhook Maze more than once, but that was when she was in the Awakener system.
But after a moment of hesitation, she said, "Let's solve the funding gap first, then we can talk about other things."
"There's no need to rush to solve it," Qu Jianlei shook his head and said calmly, "This is just the first phase of the transformation!"
"Phase one!" Mu Yu couldn't help but exclaimed, "There are also phases two and three... Isn't this really too much?"
But Mrs. Jia got the hint, and she raised her eyebrows, "So, if you're in a hurry, you can postpone it?"
"It should be possible," Zi Jiuxian explained to her great grandmother, "The boss said that the fee is mainly used to improve the training environment."
"It's better not to extend the period if it can be avoided," Qu Jianlei said calmly, "Let's take it one step at a time."
Flower Scorpion finally spoke up, "Is there any procedure for entering and exiting the maze?"
"This is another good news," Qu Jianlei said with a smile, and explained the function of the identification card.
When they heard that they could enter and exit the maze freely, academicians like Qing Hu, Zi Jiuxian and Tian Yin were all excited.
Only those in the academic field understand the value of this qualification.
In comparison, Flower Scorpion acted very calmly, "Since you can come and go freely, you go in first, I'll watch the house!"
The simple mine is just a temporary resting place and cannot be considered a home.
However, there are defense arrays and spirit gathering arrays here. If there are people guarding them, at least they don’t have to be put away frequently.
Seeing how calm she was, Bentley couldn't help but say, "If you don't call me when something happens, you know the consequences!"
"You're overthinking it," Flower Scorpion rolled his eyes at him, "I'm not afraid of you remembering it, but I dare not hide it from the boss."
While arguing, everyone followed the boss and left to the new passage leading to the maze.
However, although Claire was anxious, she finally stayed and stayed with her elder sister to look after the house.
Xizhao and Yi He did not participate in their discussion and remained in the mine.
Although it looks deserted from the outside, the conditions inside the mine are not bad. The key is that it is full of spiritual energy!
In the maze, after a group of people walked in, they all found something new and interesting.
To put it simply, it's like Bentley, who has never been here and is just looking around curiously.
The more sophisticated ones were like paranoids. After observing carefully for a while, they actually started to meditate and practice, trying to feel the difference.
Old Mrs. Jia’s perception ability was not bad either, but what she was more concerned about was where the more than 600 formations set up here were.
In her opinion, the biggest potential crisis the team is facing now is the precarious financial problem!
For high-level awakeners, most financial crises are not that terrible.
However, if it affects the boss's level-up, or even has a high probability of affecting his life or death, this would be a fatal crisis!
However, she felt relieved when she fully understood the situation.
"In other words, when you advance to a critical point, other formations can be shut down and the transformation of the environment can be temporarily stopped?"
Qu Jianlei thought about it for a moment, then nodded with a little embarrassment, "Theoretically speaking...of course we can do that."
He is not a person who likes to give up halfway, nor does he like to be criticized by others for his own reasons.
"Then there's nothing to worry about," Old Mrs. Jia breathed a sigh of relief.
It is difficult to continuously supply energy blocks to hundreds of formations, but maintaining a few formations is not a big deal.
She also thought of Qu Jianlei's dilemma, so she spoke up to comfort him.
"It's just a temporary suspension, it's not intentional. We can continue it later... Even key projects of the empire are often interrupted."
"However, when temporarily interrupting, we must consider the consequences of the spiritual energy's retaliatory reversal and cannot interrupt too hastily."
This suggestion is forward-looking, but Qu Jianlei sighed.
"It's easy to interrupt, but it's not necessarily easy to continue... There is a certain inertia in both continuous damage and recovery."
In fact, this is only a minor issue. The key point is that he really can't bring himself to do it.
At this moment, the consciousness of the spirit of the weapon came.
"You don't need to worry about this. Environmental management is important, but your breakthrough is equally important... You can't afford to make any mistakes!"
"Thank you for your understanding, senior!" Old Mrs. Jia bowed lightly towards the air.
Then she looked at Qu Jianlei again, "This senior is very reasonable. Boss, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Haha," Qu Jianlei smiled. "Senior... you haven't seen its perverse appearance."
"Huh?" A soft cry came from a paranoid person.
He was meditating, and slowly opened his eyes, saying in surprise, "The environment here is especially suitable for cultivation...cultivation of immortality!"
"Tsk," the weapon spirit snorted contemptuously and said nothing more.
Strictly speaking, the paranoid person is in a state where he has already condensed his infant state but has just dispersed. His perception is no worse than Jing Yuexin's.
After all, he is four hundred years old. How long has it been since Jing Yuexin successfully reached the next level?
Therefore, he could also sense the abnormalities that Duogan and Jing Yuexin could sense.
The paranoid man didn't care about the spirit's attitude, but said seriously, "This place must be repaired!"
"Boss, just concentrate on your training. How about I go out first and help you get some money?"
Looking at his serious expression, you can tell that he is definitely not pretending, but he truly feels the goodness of this place.
Old Mrs. Jia was a little curious, so she also went to the side to meditate.
Two hours later, she stood up and looked at the paranoid man, "Let's go get some money together... count me in!"
Only the two of them, and Jing Yuexin and the others, can truly appreciate the exquisiteness of the cave!
If you randomly change to another supreme being, such as an old tree or Leonardo da Vinci, you won’t feel the difference.
This involves the difference between the immortal cultivation system and the awakener system. In the words of Shenzhou, wild boars simply don't know how to appreciate fine bran!
"Stop it!" Qu Jianlei snorted, "Where are you going to get the money? How can you get such a large sum of money?"
This amount of money is measured in hundreds of billions, and this is just the basic demand!
If we really want to carry out the second and third phases, tens of trillions are just the beginning!
The assets of the big financial groups in the empire must be over 10 trillion, but who can come up with so many ready-made energy blocks?
It has been more than two hundred years since Dogan achieved the highest level, and it is a bit difficult for him to come up with 30 billion.
Hillary, who was once extremely powerful, almost died after losing tens of billions of dollars.
In order to obtain an energy stone mine worth hundreds of billions, the Paradise Star City Guards mobilized in large numbers to capture people near the Home Star.
Moreover, I don’t know how many people are waiting to “sit in a row and eat the fruits” at this mine, and the harvest will definitely not be shared by just a few people!
"Robbing a bank is definitely not an option, and neither is robbing an energy stone mine," the paranoid said coldly, "so let's just hunt for bounties!"
"That's right," Mrs. Jia nodded, "Hunting creatures from other dimensions!"
This is the only way they can think of to make a lot of money in a fair and honest way.
In fact, it is the same way in Blue Star. In the end, the one who can make a lot of money quickly is to reap the enemy consortium!
"Then you two are still a little short," Qu Jianlei snorted, "You're fine for an assassination, but a head-on confrontation isn't enough!"
There are many high-end combat forces in the team, but each has its own needs, either for advancement or adjustment.
There is no way, there is too much homework to be done in the early stage.
Even the paranoid himself was working while sick. Above all else, only Old Lady Jia had no fears.
As for the Supreme, there are more. Bentley, the Fourth Boss, the Flower Scorpion and Yuanyuan are all fine. Qing Arc is also fine.
However, when fighting on the frontal battlefield, Supreme's cultivation is not enough. If he forms a five-element battle formation, even with Mu Guang, he still lacks the water attribute.
There will always be casualties in battle, but Qu Jianlei hopes that the casualties are from the enemy!
And how could Old Lady Jia and the paranoid man not know what he was planning?
"Stop making trouble," Jing Yuexin stood up and stared at Qu Jianlei.
"Boss, your infant condensation is the first priority. If you are embarrassed to stop the formation, I will help you get the money!"
"This, this, this..." Qu Jianlei was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "Stop it, I didn't say the formation can't stop."
The others exchanged glances: Well, finally someone can keep the boss under control!
