Chapter 206 Ready
Then, Shang Shang's dazzling orange-level aura quietly spread out, a kind of pressure completely different from that of the Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros.
This aura was not violently destructive; instead, it exuded a calm and overwhelming serenity, like a supreme monarch enveloping the surroundings with an ancient and solemn aura, inspiring both awe and an unassailable confidence.
The gaze of the Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros gradually changed, and the crimson flames in its eyes slowly subsided. It seemed to sense the aura of the superior and began to concentrate.
Seeing that the giant beast did not make any further moves, Mo Ming breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still dared not move an inch.
As expected, the Raging Rock Rhinoceros slowly took steps, its massive body moving closer to the Raging Rock Rhinoceros, its head lowered, as if it wanted to observe more clearly the presence that it sensed was unusual.
Mo Ming watched the Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros's movements, his palms sweating profusely. However, what happened next was beyond his expectations.
The Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros looked into the depths of the upper barrier, seemingly able to penetrate all obstacles.
Suddenly, a strange change flashed in its eyes, slowly turning from fierce aggression to a low and calm state, and one could even vaguely sense a hint of disappointment.
The Raging Rock Rhinoceros let out another low growl, this time no longer one of rage and hostility, but a deep roar that seemed to carry complex emotions. Its powerful strides gradually came to a halt, its head turned to the side, slowly rising, and its massive body moved accordingly.
The Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros strode its strong limbs, the bone spurs on its back swaying slightly, and the sharp bone spurs covered with a thin film of poisonous mist occasionally gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
It lowered its head and sniffed the ground, then, as if completely losing interest, exhaled two streams of heated air before turning and leaving. Each step of this enormous creature created a rumbling, thunderous vibration, its tail swaying slowly from side to side behind it, leaving a deep scratch on the ground.
Mo Ming was momentarily bewildered, but then Shang Shang's voice echoed in his mind. It was a message transmitted directly through spiritual sense, carrying a hint of ease and composure.
“Master, it has lost interest. It was only attracted by the aura of the Radiant Orange level, thinking it was a strong competitor. But after seeing that I am a tree rooted in the earth, it probably thought there was no conflict between us, so it left.”
Mo Ming was slightly taken aback, then realized: "So, you've already communicated?"
The treetop swayed gently, and its voice continued to reach Mo Ming's mind: "At the level of Radiant Orange, the intelligence of us beings is no less than that of humans."
Aside from not being able to speak, their thinking and judgment abilities, and even their insight in many areas, are superior to those of ordinary humans.
"We can complete a full 'conversation' simply through the interaction of our aura and thoughts. This Fiery Rock Rhinoceros was merely trying to confirm the presence of its aura; without words, it understood each other's positions."
Upon hearing this, Mo Ming's eyes widened and his mouth gaped open.
He stared in disbelief at the receding Fiery Rock Rhinoceros, speechless for a moment. Only now did he truly realize that the immense power of a Radiant Orange-level ferocious beast lay not only in its physical strength and attack power, but also in its intelligence, which was far greater than he had imagined.
Shang Shang continued to explain to Mo Ming, "Although we ferocious beasts are naturally combative, the higher the level, the less likely we are to make a move. They can sense the strength of their opponents through their aura."
Such pointless battles are usually beneath its notice. That Fiery Rock Rhinoceros was a prime example. Once it was certain I posed no threat, it lost interest in probing further.
Mo Ming watched the figure of the Fierce Rock Dragon Rhinoceros gradually disappear into the distance until it vanished completely on the distant horizon, leaving only a series of huge footprints deeply imprinted on the ground.
He looked up in the direction of the original body, sighed, and shook his head with a wry smile: "The world of Radiant Orange-level ferocious beasts is truly complex..."
With things settled here, Mo Ming was finally able to relax and let out a long sigh of relief.
The previous busyness and tension left him with almost no time to rest. Now that everything is gradually getting back on track, he can finally focus his energy on mining the Radiant Ore and refining the Radiant Blue Gold.
Radiant Ore is one of the most important resources on the Sky Island. Its value lies not only in its rarity, but also in the fact that the Radiant Blue Gold extracted from it has extremely high strength and special energy conductivity, making it a core material for building high-end weapons and equipment.
Mo Ming was well aware of this, so he paid extra attention to the mining and refining of Youhui ore, striving to ensure that nothing went wrong.
After several days of hard work, the second phase of mining operations for the pyroxene ore has finally come to an end. The results were quite substantial, with over 600 pieces of pyroxene ore extracted.
Each piece of ore was carefully transported to the refining workshop, where it underwent rigorous screening and processing, ultimately yielding over six thousand units of Radiant Blue Gold.
When a pile of bluish-green metal was laid out before him, Mo Ming felt an indescribable joy and satisfaction welling up inside him. The importance of these rare metals was self-evident, especially at such a crucial moment.
The next task is to maximize the use of these precious materials.
Mo Ming had already made a plan; he decided to prioritize using 4000 units of Radiant Blue Gold to build 20 Throat-Splitting Giant Frog Cannons.
He was immediately fascinated by this weapon, especially its unique shape and powerful performance. Now, with enough Radiant Blue Gold and other auxiliary materials, the construction of the Throat-Splitting Giant Frog Cannon is finally on the agenda.
Although the blueprints for the Rending Throat Frog Cannon looked rather complicated, the Bronze Workbench was no ordinary tool. After sending in the blueprints and materials, the results did not disappoint Mo Ming.
As the design of the Throat-Splitting Giant Frog Cannons was indeed as shown in the blueprints, they were imposing and powerful. Perhaps due to the use of the rare metal, Ghostly Blue Gold, they were entirely deep blue, radiating the unique glow of Ghostly Blue Gold, as if containing boundless power.
The muzzle design resembles the open throat of a giant frog, subtly exuding a fierce aura. Each cannon is equipped with an independent energy core, capable of rapidly charging and firing high-energy projectiles with range and power far exceeding that of ordinary weapons.
Mo Ming had complete confidence in the performance of these giant cannons; these weapons would become the most important part of the shelter's defense system.
Next, following the previous plan, Mo Ming deployed 20 Throat-Splitting Giant Frog Cannons in the combat bunkers on the edge of the sky island. The combat bunkers were the first line of defense on the sky island, specifically designed to resist invasions from the outside world.
Once all the throat-splitting giant frog cannons were deployed, Mo Ming stood at the edge of the sky island, looking down at the sea below. Twenty giant cannons were neatly arranged, their muzzles aimed at the sea below the sky island; the scene was truly awe-inspiring.
Each cannon was like a sleeping behemoth, ready to unleash devastating power at any moment. Mo Ming could almost see them displaying their might in battle, and his heart was filled with anticipation.
