Chapter 559 -410 We Must Show Our Strength!_2
Their senses are advanced, their “Qi” Attribute is particularly high, and their minds are also quite smart. That one eye can even trigger a kind of spiritual attack.
But their physique is relatively fragile, not suitable for close combat.
“Our observers have analyzed and believe that this race called humans… harbors little malice, and instead, their emotions are mostly driven by curiosity and the desire for trade…”
“We think that they actually don’t have a strong desire for war; gambling fights are indeed a tool to reduce strategic misjudgment. It’s just a procedure to avoid risks…”
“But what exactly does one Spirit Essence represent, we do not know… We must find out the answer, it is related to our future!”
“Oh, right, there’s also the Epoch Disaster, natural disaster anomalies, we know nothing about them either.”
...
The words of the Cross-eyed received widespread agreement.
Information is really too important.
They have been diligently researching methods to deter the Insect Race, such as stenches, mimicry, studied for over a hundred years, and yet their results can’t compare to others’ casually concocted purple sticky substance…
“Purchasing that purple substance is not as important anymore. Information is more important!”
“However, there is no need for my fellow beings to be overly modest.” The Elder of the Cross-eyed Clan spoke up with increased volume, “We are also among the first civilizations to leave the Safe Zone, and we have developed for over a hundred years!”
“The other party cannot possibly have more time than us.”
“And, we are the wisdom combined of 12 civilizations… there is no need to show weakness!”
“Then, for the first cold weapon combat, let me take it on! I will surely win!” A tall Minotaur stood up from his seat.
His whole body was muscular, with a metal ring hanging from his bull nose, and the scars on his shoulders represented the fierce battles he had experienced. In fact, in the Supernatural era, scars like these could be easily erased, but these scars are the warrior’s honor, the medals of past wars!
Niu Ba, as the First Warrior of the Underground Alliance, had already reached the Level Three of Extraordinary Creatures!
In fact, without any ancient relics, exploring the Extraordinary Spark was not so easy…
From Level One to Level Two, it’s still manageable, a natural progression that doesn’t require much research.
From Level Two to Level Three, one needs to create an individual “Lower Qiankun.”
This requires a lot of data and research.
From Level Three to Level Four, it’s necessary to open up a meridian system, expanding the capacity for the Spark!
Without the legacy of predecessors, one could take many detours or even hit a dead end.
This Minotaur had done just that, opening up a “Lower Qiankun” as well as a “Middle Qiankun” to accommodate the more violent Spark Energy.
But the manipulation of the two Qiankun, with its complexity increased exponentially, caused the Extraordinary Spark to stall at Level Three.
Therefore, the experts of the Underground Alliance believed that Level Three might be the limit for the “Extraordinary Spark” Ability…
After all, Level Three is not bad either; skills like “Light Screen” can also be used smoothly.
Even, they have developed techniques to manipulate the two Qiankun, like the “Dual-Mind Technique,” the “Left and Right Fighting Skill,” and so on, which can be seen as having gone a long way on an unorthodox path… Who sets the standards for right and wrong, on conventional and unconventional ways, anyway.
The Minotaur slapped his chest, saying with high morale, “Give me the best equipment and I will win!”
This Race is always spirited and full of confidence!
Even in the darkest moments of the Insect Race war, the Bull Head Race went to battle with heads held high…
It must be admitted that they do have a bit of a stubborn streak and have made significant contributions, so even with a smaller population, the Underground Alliance still brought them along…
The leader of the Dark Steel People expressed somewhat helplessly, “Alright, let you have the first fight, I’ll give you that Legendary-level weapon.”
“Thank you, Chairman! Watch me take down Human Civilization!” The Minotaur shouted, with the ring on his nose swaying.
However, the rest of the Races were not as excited as him.
The Cross-eyed Elder waved a tentacle, worriedly said, “But what if we get defeated!”
“Huh?!” The Minotaur snorted sharply, enraged.
The Cross-eyed Elder spoke, “What if we suffer a devastating defeat, could we face a crisis?”
“It’s not that I don’t believe in the strongest warrior of our alliance… it’s that we know nothing about other civilizations… things like Spirit Essence…”
“Even without waging war, our bargaining chips in negotiations would be severely limited.”

This is indeed true; this Human Civilization is too mysterious… The knowledge of surface civilizations is beyond their comparison.
The crowd discussed, “If the first fight is a heavy loss, let’s contest some other aspects for the second round…”
But what could be contested?
Surely they can’t compare to firearms, right?
Directly causing a riot among the Insect Race, now that would be big trouble.
A Dark Steel Person with a large beard whispered, “The second battle, we must win it!”
“Compete with them in Artifact Forging Science!”
“We will send our best Craftsman Master, Mr. Furnace Wheel, to the field.”
With these words, everyone’s psychological pressure slightly eased.
Their civilization possesses the “Gear Inheritance” and has even studied Artifact Forging Science for over a hundred years!
Moreover, with the Underground Alliance’s abundant resources and plentiful materials, craftsmen have many opportunities to practice.
This battle… they will not lose!
“No matter how powerful Human Civilization is, even if they have discovered relics, they can’t possibly compare to Gear Civilization…”
Some still harbored worries, nonetheless, they could deduce the value of a craftsman.
Every craftsman is a precious treasure, a Human-shaped Gold Mine.
Although they are not aware of the Spiritual Value System, they have an idea of the general hierarchy of value.
The Gear Inheritance is also very precious, what if it incites the covetousness of humans?
But appearing too weak… is even more dangerous.
Humans’ malice might not be significant, but if one’s own side is pathetically weak, one can’t blame others for raising the butcher’s knife.
Such is the dilemma…
“Sigh, let’s just compare Forging Science! We need to gain some bargaining chips for negotiation,” the Chairman decided by pounding the table.
“What about the third match?”
“Let’s compare risk avoidance and treasure-hunting ability…” a Snake-man Clan’s strong individual said with not much confidence, “If we can win the second match… I will compete with them in treasure-hunting outside our realm!”
This arrangement seemed quite reasonable.
There was even a chance for the Underground Alliance to win.
100 Spirit Essence!
Just win, and it’s all theirs.
The Minotaur stood up once again, shouting loudly: “Let these aboveground races watch and learn, let them witness our strength!”
…
The cold weapon battle for the first match was arranged to take place at the heart of Shitong Fortress’s large training ground.
Seeing the First Warrior, Niu Ba, step out from his room, all the soldiers of the alliance involuntarily held their breaths, with their blood pressure rising and hearts beating faster.
Although they strictly maintained discipline, without making any sound or unnecessary movements, standing like statues,
Their micro-expressions, the rhythm of breathing, and the hastening heartbeat betrayed their thoughts – comprised mostly of excitement, agitation, and anticipation.
“This must be one of the more famous warriors of the Underground Alliance… all the soldiers are pumped up,” noticed several Colonels adept at reconnaissance, squinting and keenly perceiving the emotional changes among the soldiers.
Lu Yuan looked at the axe in the Bull Head’s hand.
A faint golden glow blossomed from the axe, making even the air around it feel somewhat scorched, and it was also engraved with complex Engravings.
The weapon was absolutely a superior one, possibly reaching a master’s standard.
The armor was also at least Superior Level.
Just this set of equipment made the Human diplomatic corps feel a chill in their hearts.
“This equipment doesn’t seem to be much worse than ours…” The Colonels present suddenly felt uncertain.
In fact, if Lu Yuan the outlier was excluded, the overall forging standard of humanity wasn’t much different from that of the Underground Alliance…
