Chapter 449: Chapter 321: Exhausted

In a hurry? Spirit Fox blinked and then realized, shivering involuntarily.

Earlier, his mind was completely focused on how to destroy the high tower, so he thought he’d be safe once inside.

Now he realized: if the tower is really destroyed, I need to escape, or I’ll die here?

It’s not that I’m not using my brain; I was just completely focused on how to cause damage, not considering other things.

Understanding this, he looked at Black Heaven again, only to discover smoke was rising from this guy’s head?

In just about ten seconds, Black Heaven’s forehead was covered in fine sweat like fluff, which quickly turned into beads of sweat.

”This guy, does he have a supercomputer hidden in his brain?” Spirit Fox couldn’t help but exclaim to himself, needing such intense heat?

Originally, he thought Black Heaven would use a special electromagnetic technique to open the door, but it turned out he was cracking the code.

Spirit Fox knew well that if he released his perception now, he could sense the other’s inner breath operation and the heat consumed.

He was indeed very curious about these, but... he dared not perceive it.

If he disturbed the other party, their lives would be small matters; delaying the tower’s destruction would be a bigger issue.

What surprised him was, Qu Jianlei really had an artificial intelligence in his brain.

Now, the butterfly with a big head and small body was quickly spinning in Qu Jianlei’s mind.

Actually, speaking of speed, it wasn’t exactly fast, but it was much faster than the usual speed he used.

And his inner breath was rapidly declining.

In less than half a minute, sweat the size of beans dripped from his forehead to his chin and then ”plop plop” fell to the ground.

After persevering for a minute, Qu Jianlei sensed trouble and hurriedly took out an A-level Crystal, squeezing it in his palm.

”Whoa, so wealthy!” Spirit Fox watched and secretly praised.

He hadn’t encountered mutated beast crystals from Garbage Star, but he had seen plenty of exotic beast crystals from other planets.

Based on his perception, he was very certain this was a genuine A-level Crystal, not a half-baked one.

So, Black Heaven... not only rich, his cultivation level must have touched the edge of A-level.

Otherwise, why dare to directly absorb an A-level Crystal? Not afraid of leaving hard-to-heal hidden dangers?

Anyway, this guy uses an unusual amount of energy to crack the password.

About three minutes later, Qu Jianlei slowly opened his eyes, exhaling, ”Finally done, exhausted!”

”Just three minutes,” Spirit Fox stuck out a thumb, ”Impressive, really fast!”

”Men shouldn’t be called fast,” Qu Jianlei said something odd, then pulled out a bottle of water and drank it.

Immediately, he rapidly pressed the code plate twenty-three times, and as expected, the thick door slid open.

Qu Jianlei specifically looked, really five meters thick, though still puzzled, ”This thickness, Supreme can’t penetrate?”

Spirit Fox replied gravely, ”This isn’t ordinary explosion-proof alloy, aren’t you busy cracking the code anymore?”

Qu Jianlei sighed weakly, ”Let me catch my breath briefly first, and take out the line for the third door.”

Spirit Fox responded with a dry laugh, ”This door needs to be custom-made, oh right, do you have any more A-level Crystals? Lend me one.”

Although he acted late, he became the main attacker later on, and his inner breath was almost exhausted.

This was despite using many Replenishing Qi methods; otherwise, he’d have long collapsed.

Qu Jianlei casually tossed him an A-level Crystal, ”Here you go.”

This one was used, shrunk by half, but still quite rare, considering the current Zarif’s generosity.

Spirit Fox took it, just about to express thanks but found that he pulled out another A-level Crystal, intact.

He couldn’t resist anymore, ”Black Heaven, I borrowed this from you and will definitely repay, can’t you give one whole?”

”Get to work,” Qu Jianlei waved his hand impatiently, ”Having one to use is good enough, stop nitpicking.”

Usually, he wasn’t like this, but Pan Yifu’s B-level Crystal ticked him off, feeling he shouldn’t be too kind.

Spirit Fox helplessly gripped the A-level Crystal and began a finger technique, then softly shouted, ”Sharp Gold~”

A white-hot light appeared at the tip of his right index finger and slowly cut into the third door’s code plate underneath.

It only took two minutes to cut out a metal block the size of a pig’s head.

However, after extracting the metal block, his complexion turned pale, with bean-sized sweat beads emerging on his forehead.

The extracted metal block fit perfectly upon insertion, clearly showing the technique’s complexity.

After extracting the metal block, he exhaled, ”Resolve the line issue yourself, I’m replenishing Qi.”

Instead of just sitting and replenishing Qi, he opened the door to the second space, planning a retreat method.

Qu Jianlei used five minutes to open the third door, but his complexion was worse than Spirit Fox’s.

The two exchanged glances, Spirit Fox smiled bitterly, ”Continue replenishing Qi for a bit, or I’m worried we can’t even run.”

Qu Jianlei gritted his teeth, ”I’ll carry you, those outside can’t wait any longer.”

Spirit Fox gave a bitter smile and pointed forward with a raised hand, ”But I still need to make a big opening on top!”

In the third space, the opposite was no longer a door, but a smooth alloy wall.

Spirit Fox didn’t know how thick this wall was.

But he was confident that digging a hole four and a half meters deep, then placing explosives inside to detonate, would trigger the self-destruct mechanism.

Just by the difficulty of his earlier cutting, one could imagine what a massive project this was.

Qu Jianlei wanted to ask how this ”Sharp Metal” technique was composed, he truly had never seen it.

But on second thought, it was taboo to ask about this, and he decided against it—after all, he couldn’t expose the attributeless now.

So he voiced the question, ”The Purple Light Distance Measuring Cutter... can it cut through?”

”The Purple Light Cutter...” Spirit Fox looked at him suspiciously, ”You didn’t possibly bring that too, did you?”

”Focus on the main point,” Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, ”Can it? And... it won’t trigger the self-destruct mechanism with its energy?”

”Detonation is impossible,” Spirit Fox answered with certainty, ”The energy of the self-destruct mechanism is very stable, very hard to detonate.”

”Even high-explosive ordnance might not trigger it, but fortunately, you also have energy blocks, as long as you can ensure distance measuring, there’s absolutely no problem.”

I can definitely ensure the distance! Qu Jianlei sighed, ”But can you guarantee the thickness of four and a half meters that you mentioned?”

Words alone don’t prove anything, this method, if operated in the Divine Land for production, would certainly get penalized heavily by the safety supervision department.

Upon hearing this, Spirit Fox could only give a bitter smile, ”Can you afford to be picky at a time like this? This is a battlefield!”

”Don’t worry, if you die, I’ll accompany you, what are you afraid of?”

Yeah, indeed, Qu Jianlei silently nodded, then took out the Purple Light Cutter.

This equipment was indeed not small, covering more than two square meters, about one meter and eight in height.

But Spirit Fox made a small sound of surprise, ”This small?”

He wasn’t speaking nonsense; he had truly seen a Purple Light Cutter before, they weren’t small, and there were smaller ones than this, but the power was much lower.

”I modified it,” Qu Jianlei replied casually, as a seasoned mechanical enthusiast, modifying tools is quite normal, isn’t it?

Spirit Fox originally wanted to ask if he had enough energy blocks,

but considering this person could bring out a hundred energy blocks, this question got caught in his throat.

So he could only give him a tip, ”Be mindful to hold your breath, the Purple Light Cutter... seems to consume oxygen.”

He hadn’t considered whether Black Heaven knew the Turtle Breathing Technique—this simple thing, you wouldn’t?

Qu Jianlei pulled out two gas masks and threw one to him with a raised hand, ”Toxic gases will escape, just holding your breath won’t work.”

Toxic gases? Spirit Fox wasn’t quite certain of this, but Black Heaven was indeed skilled with machinery, this he knew.

So he grabbed the gas mask and put it on, not forgetting to say ”Thank you.”

Having reached A-level, he could already be immune to many toxins, but having the energy for detoxification is better spent elsewhere.

The Purple Light Cutter was indeed powerful, especially this modified version by Qu Jianlei, cutting out a square meter of surface in five minutes.

But there are pros and cons, it consumed more energy blocks, using fifteen when normally it would take just five or six.

However, Qu Jianlei didn’t care; if you want extraordinary results, you must pay a price, which is roughly still fair.

Spirit Fox held an A-level Crystal, looking a bit better, but seeing the cut metal block made his face show a trace of difficulty again.

”There is still one connected inside, cutting down that piece would take quite a bit of superpower too.”

Qu Jianlei only cut four sides, the connected side inside, he was really powerless against.

If forced, Electromagnetic Power could take it down, but it would be too strenuous.

In comparison, Spirit Fox dealing with that side was easier than for Qu Jianlei.

After all, it was a Gold Attribute Superpower, which had strong affinity with alloy in many aspects.

But cutting down this large metal block, he used ten minutes, and his face turned pale again.

Yet that wasn’t the main point, the main point was: ”Black Heaven, this space is too small, can’t fit so much explosive and energy blocks.”

”They can be placed outside,” Qu Jianlei said, unwilling to speak more, ”Just open a weak breakthrough point.”

However, Spirit Fox had common sense, ”A breakthrough point is fine, but if it’s not an explosion in an enclosed space, the power might be weaker, right?”

Qu Jianlei replied with a wry smile, ”This space indeed isn’t sealed, but there are doors outside, aren’t there?”

”Three doors make three seals, especially the third door is a sealed space for the explosion... it’s just that the space is a bit larger.”

Spirit Fox was shrewd and had a broad vision, but this didn’t mean he understood everything.

However, his logical thinking had no issues, after a brief contemplation, he simply nodded.

”Your theory is correct, I say, quickly assemble the bomb!”
