Chapter 1653 Can't afford it
Chapter 1653: Can’t afford it Chapter 1653: Can’t afford it Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation How many years had it been? The Northern Army had never suffered such heavy casualties before. One had to understand how long Braydon Neal had prepared to come to the space battlefield! He made sure every single Northern Army soldier stepped into the holy master realm. What’s wrong with that? The demons and humans had fought for countless eras, and they did not lack experts or warriors. Moreover, the casualties of the Northern Army were already very small!
The losses in the battle were so great that it was worse than the previous one. If it had been the nine camps in the rear who fought this battle, not to mention casualties, they would have struggled to defend the direction of the Meteor Sea. In terms of casualties, who knew how many legions would have been wiped out in this battle. Compared to the strength of the demons, in every battle, if the human side could make the loss ratio 1:1, it would be an advantage. After all, ordinary cultivators were no match for demons of the same realm.
Humans were born weak.
Perhaps after countless years, there were also experts in the human race. Through their bloodline, they passed down from generation to generation, allowing the race to produce children who were born strong. However, compared to the number of humans in the vast universe, these people were still a small portion. For example, the eight lineages, which held the core authority of the race. The disciples of the eight lineages were the direct descendants of the race. The clansmen of each lineage were born extraordinary. However, in terms of numbers, the disciples of the eight lineages were pitifully few compared to the entire race.
This was a flaw! But there were also advantages. Although the number was small, the ratio of powerhouses born was far higher than in other regions. Within the eight lineages, several pinnacle universe masters were born in each generation. They would become the heads, protect the race, and become the representative figures of the race.
At the same time, they were also the core higher-ups of the race. Braydon personally guarded the Meteor Sea and sent part of his consciousness into the Second Universe. Seeing the hundreds of millions of battle merits in the Northern Army’s account, he chose not to distribute them to the soldiers one by one. Instead, Braydon wanted a unified distribution. As for the future, he would let the various legions and soldiers make their own contributions and obtain their own battle merits. But now, Braydon wanted to buy a batch of pills.
With a gold medal, Braydon could get a 30% discount on everything he bought in the military warehouse. This was one of the benefits of the gold medal! The gold medal given by the race meant they had secretly investigated this person. In the future, he would basically be the backbone of the race. Therefore, they would continue to invest resources in his cultivation, allowing him to grow. “It’s not a bad thing to have a large race backing you!” Braydon smiled faintly.
Bronze medals offered a 10% discount, silver medals a 20% discount, and gold medals a 30% discount. Don’t underestimate this 30% discount! An item worth 100 million battle points could save 30 million battle points. That was a huge bargain. As a commander, Braydon also knew that materials were expensive. Although Luther Carden was in charge of the Northern Army’s military supplies, Braydon would save as much as he could. This way, Luther would feel less pressured.
Braydon also realized that he could see special resources in the military warehouse of the human army that he had never seen before. It seemed that because of the gold medal, many special and precious resources that couldn’t be sold in the past were now open to him! As Braydon scrolled through the list, he realized how precious the green liquid the little fool had taken from the black tower was: Universe Spiritual Spring Water.
One gram was worth 10,000 battle merits. Just one gram was enough to rid a saint heart realm cultivator of their inner demons. It was a great tool for saint heart realm cultivators to cultivate. When Braydon thought of this, his heart began to ache! He clearly remembered that the little fool had generously distributed the Universe Spiritual Spring Water he had obtained from the small tower to the soldiers below.
The soldiers of the 13th legion, once they entered the saint heart realm, could obtain the Universe Spiritual Spring Water. Basically, everyone was just boasting to each other. If this continued, even a peak of the saint heart realm would quickly break through the heart demon of the 13th level of the saint heart realm, comprehend the life and death path, and step into the life and death realm.
“Little fool,” Braydon muttered to himself, “you’re going to lose the Universe Spiritual Spring Water that’s worth tens of billions of battle merits!” The spiritual spring water that the little fool stole from the black tower was definitely worth more than 10 billion battle merits.
Think about it: with Luke Yates’s character, he would go to the small black tower every few days to get some free money. Moreover, the green liquid in that pool was not completely cleaned out by him. One could imagine how much he had stolen over the years. One gram was worth 10,000 battle merits!
Braydon wanted to go back to the Dragon Spring World and wipe out the pool in the small tower. That thing was too valuable! Braydon thought about it, but in the end, he didn’t take action.
“Give me 1 million Spirit Opening Pills and 100,000 Iceheart Path Pills!” Braydon flipped through the list and bought these two items. The Spirit Opening Pill had a miraculous effect on holy master realm cultivators. Consuming one pill could increase one’s cultivation speed by five times and faintly increase one’s comprehension. The medicinal effect would last for half a year and help one quickly comprehend paths! Just one was worth 100 battle merits!
Braydon knew very well how valuable battle merits were. Killing a holy master-level demon beast only earned him 100 battle merits. However, the corpse of a holy master-level demon beast could also be exchanged for 100 to 900 battle merits. Killing a holy master-level demon beast could buy a bottle of 10 Spirit Opening Pills at most. If they were unlucky, they could only buy a few. Moreover, hunting a holy master-level demon beast was extremely risky. If things went wrong, he might even lose money. In the outside world, ordinary holy master cultivators wouldn’t dare to eat this stuff to cultivate. They couldn’t afford it at all!
Only the descendants of great races and experts would dare to take one from time to time! What was even more ridiculous was that the top-grade Spirit Opening Pill had a special effect. If you consumed a top-grade Spirit Opening Pill and waited for the medicinal effects to take effect before consuming another, the result wasn’t just one plus one equals two. It could cause a strong medicinal effect that was several times stronger!
In addition to the effect of the Spirit Opening Pill, it could allow one to quickly comprehend paths and even faintly increase one’s comprehension during the medicinal effect period. It was simply a sharp weapon for breaking through bottlenecks. But this thing was too expensive! Braydon reckoned that if the little fool knew about it, as long as he had money in his pocket, he would eat it like candy. Anyway, Luke was greedy and dared to eat anything!
From the introduction of the Spirit Opening Pill, Braydon saw countless cases. There was once a young holy master who took seven Spirit Opening Pills in three days and broke through nine small realms in a row to enter the saint heart realm! There were even new holy masters who swallowed eight Spirit Opening Pills and became a saint heart realm expert overnight. This was very much like a health supplement advertisement! But Braydon believed it. Everything in the human army’s military warehouse was true and had been investigated and verified.
Unfortunately, the top-grade Spirit Opening Pill was too expensive. Braydon couldn’t afford it! He could only buy low-grade Spirit Opening Pills, and one of them was worth hundreds of battle merits. A million of them would be worth hundreds of millions of battle merits. Fortunately, there was a 30% discount. Finally, there was the Iceheart Path Pill. Its effect was somewhat similar to the green liquid, but it was only one-tenth of the green liquid’s effect, or perhaps even less effective.
