Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code
Chapter 453 Tasting
With the help of the old man, Qin Ming quickly replenished his personal resources.
The items on the jade slip were checked off one by one, from high-grade spiritual materials to rare pills, from core components of the array plate to secret realm keys specifically for cultivation. Each item precisely corresponds to the most urgent needs of the spirit beasts at their current stage.
The water-type Moon Dew Grass, the wood-type Green Wood Spirit Seed, the space-type Void Crystal Core, plus the martial-type Qi and Blood Pills and poison-type Condensed Poison Liquid that Elder Xian brought in, all resources were categorized and stored in the Space Gem.
Qin Ming roughly estimated that this batch of supplies was enough to support the daily cultivation needs of all the spirit beasts for a long time to come, and even the high-grade spirit ink and array base materials needed for his own meditation and array plate deduction were in sufficient surplus.
It is expected that he will not have to worry about resources for a long time to come.
The only downside is that coming and going is too humiliating, like an underground party meeting, with everyone acting furtively and on edge the whole time.
However, during this time, Qin Ming also received some good news: there was a teleportation array in the back mountain of Canglong Academy that led directly to the border war zone.
Teleportation arrays are extremely expensive to build and maintain, especially long-distance teleportation across regions, where the amount of spirit stones consumed each time they are activated is staggering.
Normally only instructors performing emergency military duties are qualified to use it.
As a student, especially an exchange student, Qin Ming shouldn't have been qualified.
But Old Xian waved his hand in a calm tone: "I haven't used my quota for this year yet, and I estimate that I won't be able to use the remaining six months even if I stay in seclusion. I'll lend it to you."
"The kind of loan that doesn't need to be repaid."
So Qin Ming readily agreed.
The teleportation array needs to wait for a specific energy tide day to be activated, which means it will be available again in two days.
As Qin Ming was confirming the arrangements, Keda's head suddenly peeked out from behind him.
"Hey, once we get to the other side, can we go back to Blue Star to pick up Snake?" Perhaps because Snake was the one who recommended him, Keda was particularly interested in this matter.
"We can't rush things." Qin Ming reached out and scratched Keda's chin, his fingertips sinking into the fluffy white feathers, and explained, "In places like the border, there's definitely a military curfew, so we can't act recklessly."
He paused, shifting his gaze from Keda to the spirit beasts sitting around him, and added in a slow and unhurried tone, "But if we can earn some military merit, then everything will be fine."
"Military merit?" This term was somewhat unfamiliar to all the spirit beasts.
Keda tilted his head, Cangxuan raised his half-closed eyes, the black hole stopped its gentle fluttering of its butterfly wings, and even the little fat boy who was digesting his food next to him poked half of his neck out of his shell. So many pairs of eyes looked over at the same time.
Although they had lived on the Lingwu Continent for quite some time, they had always followed Qin Ming as trainees and had never been in contact with the military system, so they were genuinely curious about the term.
"It's about completing tasks, winning battles, and earning the respect of others," Qin Ming explained simply to make it easier for everyone to understand.
"Of course, in addition to combat, other aspects of the battlefield, such as early reconnaissance, strategic deployment, and equipment logistics, are also very important."
Qin Ming continued, drawing a circle on the coffee table with his finger, breaking down the concept of the battlefield into multiple modules.
"Preliminary reconnaissance determines whether you can find the enemy before they find you; strategic deployment determines whether every bit of your combat power can be used in the most critical positions; and equipment and logistics determine how long you can last on the battlefield."
The spirit beasts quietly digested this new concept.
Qin Ming was also pondering his own position after arriving at the border.
As a newcomer with no military rank, no combat achievements, and no background, it would be difficult for him to directly enter the front lines if he didn't want to become cannon fodder.
Those frontal assault missions are only assigned to battle-hardened veterans, and the contracted beasts are all combat-type configurations, so there's no chance for a newcomer like an exchange student to cut in line.
Strategic deployment is out of the question; the sand table in the operations room is surrounded by generals with stars on their shoulders, so he probably won't even be able to get through the door.
Logistics, on the other hand, seems to have great potential.
"Little Fatty," Qin Ming turned to the tortoise lying in the corner of the sofa and asked seriously, "How much space do you have now? How much space do you still have?"
Little Fatty shrank his neck back half an inch, his eyes darting around as if he were carefully calculating his inventory, before slowly replying after a long pause, "Hmm, if we squeeze in, we can probably make room for a bedroom."
Qin Ming frowned slightly; this number was much smaller than he had expected.
"So little? Didn't you just clear out your inventory with Senior Wang Tianbing?"
He had personally witnessed the previous seafood clearance sale. The containers that had been moved were piled up all over the ground, and the space that had been cleared out in Little Fatty's space should have been at least the size of a warehouse. How come it was full again in such a short time?
"Well, boss, you know that." Little Fatty's tone became earnest, as if he were reporting to a boss who didn't know much about the business.
"Although we cleared out our old stock, we also got a new batch! And the fish and shrimp from the turtles are all doing really well; the ones that aren't are all shared with everyone."
When he said the word "strive for excellence," the patterns on the tortoise shell even shone proudly.
He wanted to elaborate, for example, that the breeding cycle of the dragon's breath snails had shortened again, and that the dragon carp were much larger than the previous batch, which had also raised the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire water area. At the current rate of growth, the breeding area might need to be expanded again next quarter.
But Qin Ming, rubbing his forehead, interrupted him: "Forget about the water area, what about your land?"
"Hmm, Cangxuan recently developed a cutting propagation technique; a few branches can be separated into a small seedling. We've jointly developed a huge orchard!"
"Furthermore, the sacred deer also gave Cangxuan many rare tree species, which Cangxuan planted as well."
Little Fatty proudly introduced everything, completely ignoring Qin Ming's breakdown.
"Boss, you said we need to raise them scientifically, controlling the density and spacing of the organisms to ensure proper nutrition and healthy growth. The turtles have kept that in mind!"
Qin Ming: "..."
He remained silent for a long while.
It's a good thing that Xiaopang has a high internal space utilization rate, but why does he seem to have a headache and a sore back?
Such a large plot of land, the waterways are filled with aquaculture, the land is planted with crops, and the hard-won storage space is immediately replaced with a new batch of goods.
He leaves absolutely no room for maneuver; isn't he worried about not being able to manage his finances?
"Hmm, boss, speaking of which, how about Turtle gives you some of his new small fish and shrimp to try? They're all-natural and pollution-free, good for your brain."
The chubby boy blinked his eyes, looking quite sincere.
Qin Ming: "..."
