I can find treasures in my dreams.

Among the many treasures of the civilized world, some are exceptionally powerful, accounting for approximately one percent of all treasures.

This means that only one out of every hundred treasures will be this type of powerful treasure.

They are referred to as supreme treasures by various civilizations around the world.

Compared to ordinary treasures, high-grade treasures have one major characteristic: they are usually composed of multiple items.

Commonly known as a set.

Despite having wielded the Warhorse Shield for so long, Bond's understanding of the treasure remained superficial; he had never truly grasped its essence.

The moment Yang Fan obtained the Warhorse Shield, his mental energy immediately made contact with the deep-seated law imprints at the fastest speed.

He immediately sensed that the Warhorse Shield was calling out to something, as if it were calling for lost brothers and sisters.

This situation had never occurred with the previous six treasures.

The answer is self-evident—this is absolutely a superior treasure.

Yang Fan was pleasantly surprised, but also deeply astonished: "Most medium-sized civilizations have never produced a high-level treasure, but I never expected that the Canglan civilization would actually produce one."

He suddenly realized: "Baron Mowbray, who made the warhorse shield, also had a full suit of armor made as a family heirloom."

"It seems I still have to go to the Blue Lion Kingdom to find the lost full-body armor in order to truly activate the high-grade treasure."

Yang Fan had a bit of a headache: "The Blue Lion people's royal museum only has this warhorse shield in its collection; the full armor might have been lost hundreds of years ago."

The Warhorse Shield could not sense the location of the full-body armor, which meant that the full-body armor had not been activated and would not show any abnormalities; it looked like an ordinary antique artifact.

Therefore, finding them is no easier than finding a needle in a haystack.

Yang Fan then took out the Soul-Stealing Cicada and chuckled, "You've fallen into Bond's hands, which is a waste of your talent. Let me give you a little taste first."

"Om~"

The jade cicada trembled slightly.

Three mysterious rays of light suddenly emerged from the jade cicada and instantly entered the warhorse shield.

These represent three low-grade superpowers: "Sturdy", "Iron Armor", and "Fortified".

Judging from their names alone, all three abilities increase defense, which perfectly matches the characteristics of the Warhorse Shield.

"Keng! Keng!"

The warhorse shield made several consecutive sounds.

Its pleasure can be clearly sensed from the sound.

Yang Fan couldn't help but laugh.

soon.

The shape of the warhorse shield has changed significantly.

The warhorse pattern on the shield's surface has become somewhat blurred due to the erosion of nearly a thousand years, and it's not easy to tell that it's a warhorse unless you look closely.

Now it's as if an invisible hand has quietly reversed time, and the incomplete or worn patterns have begun to be automatically filled in.

Yang Fan suddenly remembered something and quickly called out, "Wait a minute!"

"Keng!"

The warhorse shield made a sound.

Yang Fan immediately made a request: "Could you change its appearance?"

The essence of a treasure is the law; objects are merely external carriers. Based on his understanding, changing its appearance is not difficult.

He then fed it three more supernatural abilities that suited its taste perfectly, a great gift that greatly promoted its growth, so it had no reason to refuse.

Even the most precious treasures are still subject to obligation.

"Keng!"

Warhorse Shield agreed to the request and asked him what kind of appearance he wanted.

Yang Fan thought for a moment and said, "I'll draw it for you."

He extended another finger, and light slowly shot out from the fingertip. The light exploded with a "poof," forming an illusory shield.

"Keng!"

The warhorse shield suddenly became blurry.

Two seconds later.

It became clear again, its shape completely changed, and the central pattern had become a dragon head relief from the mythology of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Yang Fan simply changed the name as well: "Great! From now on, let's call it 'Dragon Abyss Shield'."

Even if Bond himself were to be resurrected, he wouldn't recognize it as the original Warhorse Shield, and he could use it openly without any scruples.

With a thought, Yang Fan caused the Dragon Abyss Shield to shrink rapidly.

Previously over 1.5 meters tall, it is now about the length of an arm, making it easier to pick up.

He looked it over several times and nodded in satisfaction.

After half an hour.

When Ling Shuiling woke up, she saw her boyfriend leaning against the sofa, using smart glasses to surf the internet.

Next to her boyfriend, there was a strangely shaped shield that looked quite old.

The female secretary did not disturb her boyfriend, but got up and walked over, reaching out to pick up the shield.

But when touched, the shield remained completely still.

Ling Shuiling was taken aback: "How can it be so heavy?"

She awakened the succubus ability, and then a second ability. Although she wasn't a physical strength-based ability user, she could easily lift a hundred-pound object.

Yang Fan turned his head and looked over, smiling as he said, "It weighs over 600 kilograms, which is indeed quite heavy."

It wasn't this heavy before, but after absorbing the three supernatural abilities and transforming into the Dragon Abyss Shield, its weight suddenly increased more than tenfold.

The female secretary asked in surprise, "Where did this shield come from?"

Yang Fan didn't answer, but just smiled and said, "Just remember the shield. Don't be surprised if you see it again in the future."

The Dragon Abyss Shield has just evolved once, gaining several new abilities, one of which is the ability to freely change size.

Another method is to form a Dragon Abyss Mark to protect a specific target.

When the female secretary touched the Dragon Abyss Shield, a Dragon Abyss Mark quietly appeared in her body, but she didn't realize it.

After saying this, Yang Fan reached out and touched the Dragon Abyss Shield, which instantly disappeared.

He added, "The shield is my secret; don't tell anyone."

Ling Shuiling muttered, "You have so many secrets," but didn't press the matter further.

The female secretary then showed excitement: "By the way, I was just chatting with our twins on the grass. You have no idea how cute the two little ones look sitting side by side."

She then asked a question: "If grass appears in the chat scene, does that mean the baby will awaken a related supernatural ability?"

Yang Fan answered affirmatively, "That's right."

When he planted the seeds of supernatural abilities in the twins, he injected an ability called "Leaf Blade." When the fetuses and the mother communicated subconsciously, the characteristics of the supernatural ability affected their subconscious, which is why a patch of grass appeared.

Ling Shuiling stroked her belly, her face beaming with joy: "Our baby is amazing!"

Yang Fan remembered something and said, "You can go to Director Chang of the Superpower Research Institute and ask him to help you check it out."

Another meaning of "inspection" is to report or file a report.

After all, twins are of great significance, and there is reason for the country to know about it.

The female secretary understood what she meant and nodded, saying, "Okay!"

Yang Fan thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, I'll go with you."

Soon.

Inside a laboratory at the Institute of Special Plants.

Ling Shuiling was surrounded by a group of female researchers. Her protruding belly was covered with something that looked like an electrode. Several instruments were placed around her, and various data flashed on the screens like a waterfall.

Everyone's expression was very strange.

In the next room.

Director Chang stared at the data on the tablet in his hand, his face full of disbelief: "The fetuses are only five months old, and their ability indices are 11 and 12 points respectively. Both of them have exceeded the threshold of 10 points for awakened ability characteristics. This is too outrageous."

The youngest person in the Great Xia Dynasty to awaken supernatural abilities is 12 years old. The director was shocked to see the news that "supernatural abilities were awakened in the womb".

Yang Fan said with a smile, "The new human era has arrived, and such things will continue to happen in the future."

Director Chang asked, "How many vials of Body Tempering Liquid did Miss Ling take?"

Yang Fan replied, "I took several doses over seven consecutive days, but then the effect became too poor, so I stopped."

Director Chang gasped, "It seems we have all seriously underestimated the effects of the body-tempering liquid."

Because the body-tempering liquid had the best effect on young children, the director subconsciously attributed this to the body-tempering liquid.

Yang Fan shook his head and said, "It's not just the body-tempering liquid; there are other reasons as well."

Director Chang smiled and said, "Of course I know it's because of Dean Yang's good genes, but the significance of this matter is too great. These two children have truly ushered in a new era."

Yang Fan didn't say anything more.

Director Chang added, "Every batch of quenching liquid produced is met with fierce competition from all sides for a larger share."

“I’ll submit this report and see who still has the nerve to snatch it. The children are the future of Great Xia, and the Tempering Essence should be given priority to them.” Yang Fan gave a soft “hmm”.

He brought his female secretary over for a checkup, his real purpose being to push this matter forward.

The effects of the body-tempering liquid were so obvious that many internal conflicts broke out among the various parties in their struggle for quotas.

Because it involves personal interests, even if Mr. Ghost or Mr. Raven were to intervene, it would be difficult to suppress the matter.

Throwing out the evidence can stop all those hands that try to reach out.

After all, the earlier one awakens their special abilities, the greater their future development potential. Based on this alone, no one is qualified to compete with the children for the body-tempering liquid.

The situation escalated faster than Yang Fan had anticipated.

Just two hours later.

A document titled "Provisional Plan for the Allocation of Quota of Quenching Source Liquid" was issued from the highest level.

The names of all the executives were signed at the end of the document.

It clearly stipulates that "80% of the quota shall be allocated to infants and young children under the age of five, and no one may misappropriate it; violators shall be severely punished."

Ling Shuiling glanced through the document and nodded repeatedly: "The higher-ups should have done this a long time ago. I heard that some old folks in their sixties and seventies actually managed to get a lot of body-tempering liquid through certain channels."

"Even if these old geezers drink a lot, the probability of them awakening superpowers or superpower traits is pitifully small. They are really shameless."

"Besides, once the production of body-tempering source liquid increases in a few years, they will have access to it. Why rush to grab it now?"

Yang Fan smiled and said, "A new era has arrived, and there are always people who are unwilling to be left behind and want to struggle in their death throes."

The female secretary habitually stroked her lower abdomen and made a prediction: "Someone is definitely going to be in trouble."

The document not only specifies the quota for quenching source fluid, but also requires a thorough investigation into some irregularities in the recent allocation process.

The capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.

A certain materials supply department.

Several uniformed personnel suddenly knocked on the door of an office.

"Boom! Boom!"

The door was quickly opened.

A middle-aged official appeared behind the door. The moment he saw the uniform, his face changed drastically, and his legs went weak.

Anyone with a little knowledge of this knows that this is a special department newly established during the most recent major reorganization of the Great Xia Dynasty—the Xie Zhi Division.

The Xie Zhi is a mythical beast in the ancient Chinese mythology of the Xia Dynasty, possessing the ability to distinguish right from wrong and judge good from evil.

Named after the mythical beast Xie Zhi, its duties are naturally inseparable from supervision.

The Xie Zhi Division is of a very high rank, and its head reports directly to the renowned Master Lingya.

This alone ensures that the Xie Zhi Division will hold an extremely superior position, and no one will dare to easily interfere with its affairs.

The uniformed officer at the head of the group said expressionlessly, "I am Yu Sihan, the head of the Operations Division of the First Inspection Office of the Xie Zhi Division."

Director Yu continued, "Director He, you are suspected of abusing your power by allowing more than 10,000 bottles of body-tempering liquid to flow into a company that is not qualified to obtain body-tempering liquid."

He gestured "please": "Please come back with us for questioning."

Director He's face turned ashen, his lips trembling slightly as he said, "I...can I go and pack up first?"

Director Yu asked sarcastically, "This case involves many powerful people, so you want to find an opportunity to commit suicide, is that right?"

Before Director He could answer, the section chief sneered, "Let me tell you, this trick won't work. Even if you die, the spirit crows guarding the Xie Zhi Division can still make your soul speak."

Director He was horrified when he heard this.

His face twitched violently a few times as he asked, "Aren't you afraid of attracting everyone's opposition by doing this?"

Director Yu countered with a series of questions: "Who are the 'all people' you're referring to, those with guilty consciences?"

"Do you really think that these people with guilty consciences can shake Mr. Lingya by joining forces?"

"Mr. Lingya is a top expert of the Great Xia Dynasty. He can move mountains and fill seas with a mere gesture. What do you clowns have to do to shake him?"

Director He was so stumped by the question that he couldn't say a word.

Director Yu said very bluntly, "Times have changed, but you are still using outdated logic to look at problems, always trying to use power to gain more benefits."

Director He was indignant: "Does having great power mean you can do whatever you want?"

Director Yu sneered: "If Mr. Lingya really does whatever he wants, do you think you'll still have a chance to talk to me?"

"It is precisely because Mr. Lingya chose to exercise restraint that the Xiezhi Division came into being, and that we came here to act in accordance with the rules."

"Do you think your opposition can really change the rules? No, I'm telling you clearly, it will only destroy the rules and completely remove the constraints on power."

Director He remained silent.

With his knowledge, he naturally knew that the other party was absolutely right.

The establishment of the Xiezhi Division was the result of compromise among all parties.

This is absolutely not an abuse of power; on the contrary, it is a restraint on power.

Therefore, any dissenting voice is an attempt to break the balance that all parties are trying to maintain, which will inevitably lead to joint suppression and have very serious consequences.

Director He understood this, and sighed dejectedly, "I'll go with you."

Yanzhou.

Madaga Special Administrative Region.

After the previous tsunami, Madagascar was designated as a special administrative region and formally brought under the jurisdiction of Great Xia.

Ha Xiaofu received a phone call early in the morning.

Three minutes later.

He put down his phone and looked at his wife with a face full of surprise: "Honey, the children's welfare center called me. A new batch of body tempering liquid will be airlifted over tomorrow, and one of our baby's quotas is included."

Eileen smiled happily, "It's finally here."

As early as half a month ago.

Community workers came to their home to collect a small amount of blood from the sole of their baby's foot and sent it to the relevant institution for testing.

The results showed that the baby's constitution was highly compatible with the body-tempering liquid, so it was included in the limited supply list.

Each bottle of body-quenching liquid costs 9800 yuan, which is much lower than many people expected. The cost is subsidized by the state for 60% and by the special administrative region for 30%, so the couple only needs to pay 980 yuan.

The child welfare center also stated that they would arrange for the baby to take the medication soon.

The couple waited for half a month, during which they made several inquiries, but still received no definite result.

Today we finally received the official notification.

Early the next morning.

Inside a heavily guarded room in a children's welfare center.

The couple witnessed their youngest daughter drink a vial of pale green solution.

The baby's temperature rose quickly, reaching a low fever of 37.5 degrees Celsius, and then the baby fell into a deep sleep.

After observing for another hour.

Professionals used psychic instruments to conduct a comprehensive examination on the youngest daughter.

The results are in—the baby's special ability index reached 1 point.

The entire welfare center was in an uproar.

The couple couldn't stop smiling.

This is because the 11-month-old baby has shown extraordinary abilities, which is extremely rare.

It's safe to say that this girl named "Ha Xiaolin" will most likely become an outstanding superhuman in the future.

Many people gathered around the baby who was in a deep sleep, marveling at her hair which had a hint of light green.

This is a change that happened in the last hour.

The staff member called Ha Xiaofu aside and said, "Mr. Ha, congratulations! Your daughter has been included in the 'Special Needs Children Assistance Program'."

“From now on, your family will receive a special subsidy of 5000 yuan per month until Ha Xiaolin turns 18. The subsidy amount may increase in the future.”

Ha Xiaofu listened with increasing delight: "The country's welfare is getting better and better."

The staff member said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Your baby represents the future of Great Xia, and may make a great contribution to Great Xia in the future, so the country should of course give him more benefits."

The person then handed over a tablet: "You are Ha Xiaolin's guardian. Please press your fingerprint here."

Ha Xiaofu had just pressed his thumbprint when he suddenly heard an even louder commotion behind him.

"Just now she could only stand with support, but now she can walk after a nap, and she walks so steadily."

"My God, the Body Tempering Fluid is amazing!"

Ha Xiaofu immediately turned around and saw her baby walking around curiously on the bed. The little body didn't sway at all, and she could hardly believe her eyes.

His wife stood by the bed, her eyes fixed on the baby, too excited to speak.

Two seconds passed.

The baby suddenly stopped, turned to look at his mother, and clearly said, "Mommy, I'm hungry!"

The noise grew even louder.

Because the little girl couldn't speak before, no one expected that after drinking a bottle of Body Tempering Elixir, she would not only be able to walk but also speak so clearly. (End of Chapter)
