He was selling gashapon toys in Marvel Studios, and at the beginning, Tony turned into Kuuga.

The basement of the Quanxing North China stronghold.

Gong Qing placed the box on the ground, and the lid popped open, filling the entire room with the light of various crystals and animal bones.

More than 130 members of the Quanxing sect at the bottom level surrounded the area three times, craning their necks like geese to peer inside.

"Where did these things come from?"

"Are you blind? Master Gong led his men to retrieve it from another world!"

"Go to another world? Bring it back and you can exchange it for that...power-enhancing gacha?"

"Didn't you see Xia He's tail? Gao Ning's fist exploded in the air when he swung it! He got it by trading that thing!"

The whispers in the crowd quickly turned into a clamor.

Gong Qing adjusted his glasses but did not stop him.

From top to bottom, the driving force behind Quanxing can be summed up in just two words: profit.

Morality cannot restrain them, and fear can only provide temporary relief.

Only tangible benefits can unite this group of scattered soldiers into a cohesive force.

"The first batch of brothers who went out have each been given ten chances to draw gashapon capsules."

Gong Qing spoke, his voice not loud, but the basement immediately fell silent.

"Someone drew a talisman that could make a knife three times sharper, and someone else got a one-time use talisman that could teleport for a short distance."

"If you want it, you can register next time."

The crowd below erupted in cheers.

Gong Qing put his hands into his sweater pockets, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The bait has been used up; now we just wait for the gashapon merchant to come and collect the catch.

He didn't have to wait long.

That afternoon, a message arrived from the black business card in my pocket.

"Sect Leader Gong, are you busy?"

"Come to the store, I have a new project I'd like to discuss with you."

Li Ang's voice was languid.

When Gong Qing arrived, Li Ang was sitting behind the counter, looking at something on the system panel.

The emerald green and silver-gray gashapon machines stood quietly in the corner, while the scarlet gem on the dark purple stand glittered, as if greeting Gong Qing.

"Sit down," Li Ang said, pointing to the chair opposite him.

Gong Qing didn't stand on ceremony and, after sitting down, immediately asked, "What kind of work?"

"The world you went to last time had average resource quality, suitable for practice."

Li Ang drew a holographic projection, a miniature map of a brand new world.

"But if you want to unlock access to the premium gacha... you'll have to go here."

The holographic projection unfolds, revealing a vast medieval continent.

Green plains, azure skies, and peaceful human towns.

The scene shifts to several black spires in the wilderness, shrouded in thick black fog.

The flag atop the tower is adorned with distorted coats of arms.

"The energy system of this world is based on magic, which is similar to your Qi, but the laws are completely different."

Li Ang zoomed in on the projection, pointing it at the black towers.

"The primary targets are these demons."

"Demons?"

"A highly intelligent non-human race, skilled in magic and deception."

Li Ang brought up some images.

The image shows a beautiful young girl smiling and extending her hand to a human...

Then, in the next second, the hand pierced through the human's chest.

"They will try to get close to you using human language, they will beg for mercy, they will cry, and they will say that I also have family."

"But it was all fake."

"For demons, language is merely a hunting tool."

Gong Qing pushed up his glasses, a playful smile curving his lips.

monster?

"I'm not interested in their performance techniques."

Gong Qing leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs.

"Get to the point, what items can be exchanged for premium gashapon toys?"

Li Ang held up three fingers.

"First, the horn of a demon general."

"Every demon of general rank has horn-shaped crystals on its head, which store a large amount of high-purity magic power."

"Bring one back, and I'll exchange it for a premium gacha pull."

"Secondly, the hero's relics."

"In that world, there is a profession system called Hero. The weapons or armor left behind by deceased heroes can also be exchanged for high-level gacha."

"third……"

Li Ang's tone changed, taking on a hint of the eagerness a merchant has when he sees a rare commodity.

"There was an elf magician named Frilian."

"Having lived for over a thousand years, every personal item I own is imbued with a thousand years of magic."

"If you can get your hands on her things, each one is very valuable; you could even get a high-level ten-pull."

Gong Qing's finger stopped on the glasses frame.

Premium 10-pull.

The last regular draw already doubled the Quanxing's combat power, and the advanced draw...

"Is she very strong?"

"So strong that even the entire Quanxing sect combined might not be enough to counter it."

"So I suggest you don't force it."

"Steal, or find something she threw away."

"In short, you figure out the method yourself."

Gong Qing went through the information in his mind, then stood up.

"The horn of a demon general, a hero's relic, and a personal item of a thousand-year-old elf."

He repeated it, and after confirming that it was correct, he nodded to Li Ang.

"What about the maximum number of participants?"

"You can bring a hundred people this time." Li Ang pulled out a stack of black business cards from under the counter and handed them over. "Give one to each of the core members. The portal will open at midnight the day after tomorrow."

"I've marked the location. I'll take you directly to the edge of the demon's territory."

"The rest depends on your abilities."

Gong Qing took the business card and weighed it in his hand.

"There's one more thing." He stopped at the door without turning around. "What is the highest combat strength of the demons in that world?"

"Top-tier demons..." Li Ang thought for a moment, "are roughly equivalent to 60% to 70% of Zhang Zhiwei's level in your world of supernatural beings."

Gong Qing straightened his back.

Sixty to seventy percent.

It's not that we can't fight.

Especially after the gacha system was introduced.

"Understood."

The portal closed behind him.

Back at the stronghold, Gong Qing summoned the four madmen to a secret room.

"The goal has changed."

He unfolded a hand-drawn map, which he had memorized while he was in the store.

"This time we're not going to mine, we're going to hunt demons."

"And not just any low-level thug, preferably a general."

"A general? How many punches would it take to break him?"

Gao Ning's eyes lit up, and he instinctively gripped his boxing gloves tighter.

"Your current damage output, combined with the Thunder Array Gauntlets, is enough to deal with their mid-level enemies."

Gong Qing sat down and traced his finger across the map.

"But generals... need to cooperate."

"Xia He".

"Hmm?" Xia He leaned lazily against the wall, her fox tail wrapped around her ankle.

"What is the control limit of your fox demon threads?"

"At the level of a tenth-rank expert, they can probably control the opponent for five to six seconds." Xia He tilted her head and thought for a moment. "If the opponent doesn't have mental resistance, seven seconds isn't out of the question."

"Enough." Gong Qing pushed up his glasses, his gaze behind the lenses turning cold. "The operation plan is simple: you take control, Gao Ning breaks through, and I'll clean up."

"Retreat immediately once the general's horn is removed."

"Do not linger in battle, do not covet merit; the life of a warrior is more valuable than any spoils of war."

Xia He smiled, a smile that was both alluring and dangerous.

"Mr. Gong, I'm really touched by what you said."

"Enough with the nonsense, go and inform your men."

Gong Qing handed out the business cards, his tone returning to its usual indifferent tone.

"Meet at midnight the day after tomorrow. Latecomers will not be waited for."

"This time, we're going to the demon's lair in that world to dig out their secrets."
