World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 265 - 149 Magic Shield
Chapter 265: Chapter 149 Magic Shield
Having figured out what had happened today, Zhang Xiaoman still couldn’t feel wonderful.
Given the current situation, even with such advanced technology as anti-gravity cars when dealing with monsters, they didn’t seem to have much of an advantage.
After staying there for a while, and after twelve o’clock, Zhang Xiaoman excitedly ran to the Original Realm, prepared for today’s draw.
"Just one more Star Dust and I’ll be able to buy the Star Network Host! I can’t believe there’s a time when I’d hope for the lowest reward..."
Zhang Xiaoman opened the System panel and pressed the drawing button.
"Congratulations, you have obtained a green skill—Magic Shield."
However, the more he wanted something, the less likely it was to appear. The result displayed by the System was undoubtedly frustrating.
A green Skill Light Ball dropped out of thin air and Zhang Xiaoman caught it with his hand.
"I don’t know if this is good luck or bad, aiming for a white item, yet pulling a green skill."
As he spoke, he looked at the Skill Light Ball and opened its attribute panel.
[Magic Shield]
——Absorbs damage caused by external attacks.
This was the attribute shown by the Light Ball, with detailed information visible only after learning the skill.
However, just from the name, it wasn’t hard to figure out its use, although the specific effects were yet unknown, but Zhang Xiaoman was still very much looking forward to it.
He crushed the Skill Light Ball, and a stream of green specks merged into his body, adding a detailed description of this skill to his attributes.
[Magic Shield]
Consumes Dark Energy to absorb damage from external attacks.
Absorption ratio: Every 5 points of Dark Energy can absorb 1 point of damage. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Cooling time: None
——As long as I still have mana, you can’t kill me.
A smile couldn’t help but appear on Zhang Xiaoman’s face.
It seemed this skill was a lot better than he had initially thought.
Although he didn’t know what the definition of ’1 point of damage’ was, if reverse-calculated from Baozi and Four-leaf Flower’s recovery rate, 1 point of damage didn’t seem to be significant.
If that was the case, then Zhang Xiaoman estimated that, with his current Dark Energy limit, he probably couldn’t block more than one or two attacks.
But these were secondary matters, after all, this skill could be upgraded, and once leveled up in the future, the shield’s effect should become much stronger.
Moreover, the most important thing was that the Magic Shield skill had no cooling time, which immediately made it much more practical and gave it the potential to become a Divine Skill.
This was perfectly in line with the phrase that followed, as long as I still have mana, you can’t kill me.
"I’m in dire need of such a life-saving skill, today’s gain truly came at the right time. As for the Star Dust, well, there’s no rush, I’ll get it sooner or later..."
Zhang Xiaoman didn’t linger anymore and activated his Teleportation Skill to return.
In the morning, at nine o’clock.
A ringtone woke him from his sleep. He picked up his phone and saw it was from Su Fu.
"Mr. Zhang, I’ve almost dealt with the matter you asked me to handle last time. There are still a few issues left that need to be confirmed with you."
"Oh? Please go ahead, Boss Su."
On the other end of the phone, Su Fu’s magnetic voice sounded.
"Here’s the deal, there are about three issues that need to be addressed, the first one is about the standards. Having tested the new type of material you provided, it surpasses the mainstream materials currently on the market in terms of hardness, toughness, durability, and weight. So, I took the opportunity during this time to apply for the second-level standard for you."
He paused for a moment and kindly explained: "The industry’s second-level standard means that this material can meet the majority of construction needs, such as the material standards required by some private firms for construction projects."
"As for the Level 1 Standard, that might be more difficult. It involves a certain procedure, mainly used for some government tender projects."
Zhang Xiaoman understood the implication and responded, "For now, reaching a second-level standard is enough, thank you for your hard work."
"You’re too polite, Mr. Zhang. Now that both Changqing and I are part of the Star Alliance, these tasks are something I should do."
Zhang Xiaoman smiled, what the other party said was true. Over this period of contact, Su Fu had clearly expressed his desire to join the Star Alliance, which also made him his fledgling follower.
Zhang Xiaoman gave them the chance to awaken, aiding them to become Transcendents, of course, demanding they reciprocate in turn. Given the current situation, they didn’t need to fight, so there were naturally other tasks for them to complete.
In the Star Alliance, not everyone had to become a fighter; people excelled at different things and were responsible for different areas.
On the other end of the phone, Su Fu’s voice rang out again: "The second issue is, I wonder if Mr. Zhang needs to apply for a patent? Applying for a patent requires providing the formula, which is also linked to the Level 1 Standard. If Mr. Zhang wants to reach Level 1, then you must provide the specific formula for the materials, otherwise it’s not possible to apply."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman decisively refused, "In that case, let’s not apply for it. Patents and such are unnecessary. I believe no one can figure out the formula for this material for now."
He joked, how could he have any formula? All the Re-Titanium Crystal Gel was exchanged from the Gang Store, as for the specific components inside this new material, whether they even exist in this world was questionable.
Su Fu had anticipated this response, no hint of surprise in his words as he stated the last issue.
"Now that the new material meets the construction standards, but if we want to sell it, we still need a company with relevant qualifications. Although Snow Crystal Group is in the real estate business, they always use cooperation with suppliers; the group itself does not have its own manufacturing enterprise."
"If we want to sell this material, we must set up a company with the relevant qualifications. However, it is still very difficult to get such an application approved..."
"Does Mr. Su have any suggestion?" Zhang Xiaoman asked.
"Actually, the solution is quite simple; we just need to directly acquire a company. However, acquiring such a company is difficult domestically. I suggest looking abroad for acquisitions, and then expand to the overseas market. I’ve also found several companies willing to sell at a reasonable price."
Zhang Xiaoman hadn’t expected that selling just a material could also be so complicated.
On one hand, he was troubled by the difficulty of implementing the plan, and on the other, he was thankful that he had sought professional help. If he had to manage all this alone, who knew how long it would take.
PS: It’s my birthday today, so I’m quite busy, only managed to write one Chapter, really sorry~
