Rules for Unlocking Level-Two Meches

After leaving the Yongan Restaurant Jiang Li returned to the Sirius Gang.

It was already late. As the evening came, he also became a bit anxious, as he still hadn’t heard from Hu Dong.

To be honest, Jiang Li wouldn’t do anything before confirming the situation in Qingshan Valley. In this Super Fantasy World full of monsters, he was just strong enough to protect himself. So, he had to be cautious before making any decisions. He always had to think twice. That was why Jiang Li worked with the three gangs and Hong Tianqi, in order to have all the soldiers he would have to strengthen himself.

It was going quite smoothly. And yet, the three gangs and Hong Tianqi still hadn’t sent the herbs Jiang Li wanted. Jiang Li was quite disappointed and he even thought about seizing the herbs from them, but he gave up the idea, after all it wasn’t a good time to fight with one another.

“Master.” Intel Mech XX01 walked quickly to Jiang Li.

“Yes,” Jiang Li said.

“Intel Mech XX02 wanted to talk to you,” XX01 said.

“Put him through.” Jiang Li was thrilled.

Buzz! XX01 raised his right hand and a beam of light shot out from his wrist, which formed a screen that was showing a forest.

After that. XX02 appeared.

“Master.” XX02 saluted.

“Report to me,” Jiang Li said.

“Yes.” XX02 nodded and said immediately, “we’re now outside Qingshan Valley. Wang Long and a few Cold Weapon Meches have already sneaked in there and they’ve just returned. That’s why I contacted you. According to the information they got, ten thousand soldiers from Pingding City are trapped in Qingshan Valley. Many of them are dead or injured, and only less than half of them are left, but they’re still hanging on.”

“How many soldiers do the Monsters and Barbarians have?” Jiang Li asked again.

“There are approximately ten thousand Monsters and ten thousand Barbarians. They’ve lost only around two thousand soldiers altogether,” XX02 replied. “Also, there are level-two soldiers among the army of the Monsters and Barbarians.”

“Level two!” Jiang Li said seriously, “How many?”

The thing was, Jiang Li didn’t have any level-two meches right now.

“I’m not sure, but definitely less than five.” XX02 answered firmly.

“Did you see Dugu Huangcheng and Yang Zike?” Jiang Li asked.

“Yes.” XX02 nodded. “They’re with the Monsters and Barbarians. We’re sure that Dugu Huangcheng and Yang Zike have betrayed the Qian Dynasty.”

“…”

Jiang Li pondered.

The situation was worse than he expected. In fact, Jiang Li had already foreseen that the Monsters and Barbarians would have twenty thousand soldiers altogether. After all, even the City Guards in Yongan City had ten thousand soldiers.

Having a group of Firearm Meches of the perfected stage of level one, Jiang Li wasn’t worried about the number of soldiers. However, he was anxious about the level-two soldiers.

The thing was Jiang Li had never encountered any enemies of level two. He wasn’t sure how strong they were and if they could break through the meches. If the meches couldn’t stop them the consequences would be unimaginable.

“This won’t work.” Jiang Li shook his head. “If we go to Qingshan Valley like this, we may not be able to win even if the Monsters and Barbarians are caught off guard. I don’t have any ‘level-two Soul Tinder’ and I don’t know where to get it, so I can’t upgrade my meches to level one and I can’t even open the ‘Level-Two Mech Types’ window. According to the rules of the ‘Legendary Mech Army,’ I need nine ‘level-two Soul Tinders’ and ‘10,000 energy points’ to unlock level-two meches. I don’t have either of these.”

“So, there’s only one way left. If I can collect ten ‘level-one Soul Tinders,’ I’ll be able to merge them. If it works, I’ll get a ‘level-two Soul Tinder,’ but if it doesn’t, all ten level-one Soul Tinders will be gone. More importantly, the possibility of successfully merging the Soul Tinders is very low.”

Swish!

Jiang Li opened the Dominator Panel. There was “0” Soul Tinder. He didn’t even have a level-one Soul Tinder right now.

“Chief, Tingyu Tower sent someone here. They brought you the herbs you requested,” Ma Han yelled at the entrance.

“Tingyu Tower.” Jiang Li looked up and was excited. He immediately walked out of the compound to meet the people from Tingyu Tower.

As long as he had enough energy points, he could make a hundred meches of perfected-stage level one. No matter how strong their level-two soldiers were, a hundred perfected-stage meches should be able to beat them. The meches weren’t afraid of dying.

“I hope Yu Shulan gave me enough herbs.” Jiang Li was looking forward to it.

…

In the courtyard of the gang a few people from Tingyu Tower arrived with a carriage. They were organizing the wooden boxes. Although they hadn’t opened them, there was already a smell of the herbs.

“Chief Jiang.” In front of the carriage a sexy, gorgeous lady in a red dress greeted Jiang Li. She had a red mole at the corner of her mouth. She bowed to Jiang Li, showing the curve of her body.

“Hm.” Jiang Li nodded and asked, “You are?”

“I’m Miao Hong, the Deputy Chief of Tingyu Tower. These are the herbs my sister asked me to send you. Here’s the list of the herbs. Please take a look.” Miao Hong smiled and replied, “Oh, she also said you don’t have to pay for the herbs if you don’t have enough money.”

“So, she’s giving them to me?” Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.

“Hehe, maybe you’re too handsome. She can’t suppress her feelings for you, so she’s giving you all she has,” Miao Hong said with a smile.

“Ahem.” Jiang Li coughed. “These herbs are indeed useful to me. I’ll take them. I owe your leader once. If she needs help in the future, find me.”

“Hm, I’ll deliver your message.” Miao Hong nodded.

After that Jiang Li asked someone to take all the herbs from Tingyu Tower to the courtyard.

“When you go back, tell Yu Shulan to go to the city gates with her members as soon as possible. Remember to lay low. We’re going to take action soon,” Jiang Li said.

“Yes, Chief Jiang.” Miao Hong nodded.

After Miao Hong left, the White Dragon Gang and Tianmen Gang also sent their herbs here. Jiang Li spent all two hundred thousand taels of silver he had and wrote a receipt of five hundred thousand as debt. He went from a millionaire to bankrupt.

Finally, Hong Tianqi personally came with two carriages full of herbs. The City Guards were indeed different. They were much richer than the three gangs.

Jiang Li took all the herbs. It made no difference to have more debt anyway.

Jiang Li asked Long Chongzhen, Hua Tian, Yu Shulan and Hong Tianqi to bring their people to the city gates first.

Ten minutes later Jiang Li asked the meches to take all the herbs to the courtyard. The place was completely full.

“Convert these herbs to energy points.” Jiang Li didn’t have time to see how many herbs there were. He immediately converted them.
