Infinite Fighting

After a night's rest, the team's injuries had healed to varying degrees, allowing them to at least maintain a slow pace.

The two bear carcasses were dismantled, and a large amount of meat was discarded as it could not be carried away.

Some valuable internal organs, tendons, and even the palm were preserved.

Even though nearly 60% of their belongings were discarded, they could still take away an entire small mountain. After careful planning, some of it was packed into spatial boxes, and the rest they each carried with them.

Zhang Ji is now able to move around on his own, so he no longer needs to carry their loads.

"When I have money, I'll definitely buy a bigger storage box. It's such a waste to throw away so many things," Gray said.

"Come on, do you think you can save any money?" Mels teased.

“Isn’t there a squad fund?” Gray asked.

“The current space box is sufficient. We can’t expect to have such generous returns every time, so there’s no need to spend extra money to buy a larger space box,” Kenzie said.

The group chatted and walked along, with Zhang Ji in the middle, next to Luo Na. She seemed to be offering to help Zhang Ji, but he didn't need it.

Although he is walking a little slower now, it doesn't mean he will fall; his control is still fine.

The signal from the other carrier is becoming increasingly clear, and soon he will be able to fully share information.

Complete information sharing means that his body can also be upgraded to the K-level, just like that other vessel.

By evening, Zhang Ji had regained the ability to move normally. By nightfall, he had almost reached the level of a D-rank. As his size increased, his information retrieval became faster and faster. In addition, he could also radiate a certain amount of information and connect with another carrier, which rapidly increased the efficiency of information transmission.

"Zhang Ji, this is for you."

Dailina brought the food to Zhang Ji.

Her body has a strong ability to recover; with some medicine, that injury has almost completely healed by now.

After Zhang Ji took the bowl, Dai Lina was about to leave, but Zhang Ji stopped her.

"Wait a minute." Zhang Ji reached into the void, took out a small jade box, and said, "Inside is a medicinal ointment. Apply it to the skin to treat scars and repair bones."

Delina was stunned and subconsciously reached out to touch her disfigured cheek.

After hesitating for a moment, she thanked him and carefully took the jade box from Zhang Ji's hand.

After distributing the food, Delina quietly opened the jade box in the darkness. Inside were some milky white ointments. She dabbed some on her fingers and applied it to the scars on her face before resting.

At night, she felt an itch on her face and instinctively reached out to scratch it. That one scratch caused half of her face to fall off.

Those are metabolic waste products left behind by rapid cell regeneration.

Dalina was startled awake and subconsciously touched her cheek. It didn't have that rough feel; instead, it felt as smooth and delicate as Rona's skin.

She carefully approached the campfire, took out a mirror, and looked at her reflection. The face there was both strange and familiar.

It's been so long since we last met.

She felt joy, but she wasn't overly excited.

Her many years in adventure teams have made her used to this.

It's common for people in this line of work to have scars on their faces.

I never imagined that there would still be hope for a full recovery.

She smiled and lay back down.

Rona opened her eyes and looked at Delina opposite her in surprise, "Delina, your face? Is that Mr. Zhang Ji's ointment?"

“Yes, I remember you have a scar on your back. There’s still a lot left in here,” Delina said, handing the jade box to Rona.

"Thank you," Rona said happily.

The next day, Gray's voice woke everyone up early in the morning.

"My God, you're so beautiful, little sister!" Gray stared intently at Delina, who was cooking.

Delina was tall and had striking, heroic features. This combination made her far more attractive to Gray than Lorna, who was petite.

However, Dalina knocked him to the side and made him lie there with just one punch.

"Don't make noise, everyone is still resting," said Dalina.

Gray obediently shut up.

The others woke up soon after, and were all somewhat surprised to see Delina's restored face.

They noticed that Zhang Ji had given Dai Lina the ointment, but they didn't expect it to be so effective.

Mels subconsciously thought that if this kind of thing were sold on the market, those noble ladies would probably spend a fortune on it.

Zhang Ji's mystique has increased by another 1.

It is incredibly powerful and can kill a bear with a single blow.

He is technically skilled and can hand-carve the energy circuit of a sorcery gun.

He even had this medicine on him that could completely heal scars; it might have been concocted by him, since such a thing is simply not available on the market.

Within the group, Yes's head, shrouded in a black cloak, was tilted towards Zhang Ji, as if he were deep in thought.

After breakfast, the team continued their march.

We traveled light and ran fast on the way there, but we were much slower on the way back.

Each of them carried some materials, which naturally slowed their pace. They had also prepared folding carts, but they could only take them out and use them when they reached a road, otherwise the wheels would easily be damaged.

On the third night, Yes, the most reserved member of the team, finally couldn't hold back and talked to Zhang Ji.

"Do you know anything about forging?" Yes asked.

"I know a little," Zhang Ji replied.

“Have you heard of the dwarf king’s jeweled hammer?” Yes asked.

He sounded a little nervous when he said that.

However, it's clear that bringing even a little bit is unnecessary.

“My vessel in this world has only been formed for a short time, and my efficiency in acquiring information is not high. I am not aware of these things,” Zhang Ji replied.

“It is a divine artifact capable of forging all kinds of materials; clay can be forged into gold, and stone can be transformed into Tallir steel,” Yes explained.

"It seems to involve some kind of material conversion function," Zhang Ji said calmly and rationally.

Seeing that Zhang Ji remained calm, Yes finally revealed his intentions.

"Actually, I have that hammer, but I've never known how to use it. You seem to know a lot about it, so perhaps you understand how to use it," Yes asked.

“Yes, I can take a look for you,” Zhang Ji said.

Carefully, Yes pulled a small hammer out from inside his clothes.

It's about the size of a palm, with an hourglass-shaped hammerhead inlaid with many gems at the front, and a hammer handle also inlaid with gems.

"It is said that as long as you think of a certain substance and tap it, you can change the original properties of the substance and transform it into the substance you are thinking of," Yes said. "But I have tried many times and have never succeeded."

Zhang Ji examined the gem hammer in his hand, and his expression suddenly became subtle.

A time-space artifact?

I actually encountered a time-traveling artifact here.

Although time-space artifacts are no longer of much concern to Zhang Ji now, they are still worth studying.

"How is it?" Yes asked, seeing Zhang Ji's silence.

“You used it wrong,” Zhang Ji replied.

"What?" Yes asked, puzzled.

Isn't a hammer used to smash things?

"The hammerhead and the outer gemstone decorations are just a disguise. The real key is the hammer handle inside. To use it, you need to first disassemble the gemstone casing according to the specific mechanism and take out the hammer handle."

As Zhang Ji spoke, he demonstrated, easily removing several sturdy gemstones, and then with a shake, pulled out a jet-black metal rod slightly longer than his index finger.

Holding the stick, Zhang Ji sensed its unique characteristics as a time-space artifact.

It is essentially a rule of spacetime, and the stick is merely a manifestation of it.

Zhang Ji tapped a patch of soil beside him with the stick. The moment he struck it, space and time rippled, and the information was rewritten and distorted by the rules it carried. Some energy was drawn from Zhang Ji's body, and the patch of soil turned into gold.

"So that's it?"

Yes's eyes widened in shock.

Zhang Ji handed the stick to Yes and said, "It can transform not only the substances that exist in reality. You can also imagine a substance to transform. Because it is a transformation through real substances, it only changes the original information, so the energy consumption will be less. However, it will still require a lot of energy to break the rules of the material world. You should use it with caution. The rules of this kind of spacetime artifact can easily interfere with the material world. If you are not careful, it may cause a disaster that destroys the entire world."

When Ye Si saw Zhang Ji return the stick, he could hardly believe it.

It was returned so easily?

Doesn't he feel tempted?
Yes carefully recalled the words Zhang Ji had spoken after they met.

He seemed to realize something.

The person before them might be even more terrifying than they imagined.

From beginning to end, the other party never concealed their origins.

That's an attitude of indifference.

Although I didn't look at them with the same disdain I would show towards ants, and even actively participated in their activities, I viewed them more from the perspective of a third-party observer.

Even the unparalleled emperor Ignazio of the Niels Empire, who could not stand at such a height and look down, could not do it.

Is this a deity incarnate?

Although it's hard to believe, once I think about it this way, everything makes sense.

His erudition, his mystery, and his composure in the face of all things.

Yes's cloak hood suddenly fell down, revealing a head with purple skin and pointed ears. He also removed his mask and bowed to Zhang Ji, saying, "Dimit, a remnant of the Moon Clan, begs Your Excellency to have mercy and save our homeland. The Moon Clan is willing to worship and believe in you for eternity!"

“I don’t need faith.” Zhang Ji shook his head, then smiled as he observed Yes’s changing expression, and said, “However, I would be happy to participate in your story.”

The observers gather information from different times and spaces to improve themselves, and occasionally participate in their stories, trying to find more possibilities from the unknown of living beings. This is also why Zhang Ji initially chose to follow this team.

He felt that these people possessed many possibilities and were quite interesting.

He will use this to create his own new rules for spacetime. (End of Chapter)
