National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

For any individual, the outcome of a contestant transforming into a non-human intelligent being is not important.

The important thing is how it changed and its subsequent impact.

"How did it change? Is there any ritual required?" Renyi asked naturally.

If that queen could conjure up a live snake by chanting a spell or waving her magic wand...

Then you'd better run away as soon as possible.

Sita was taken aback by the question, "A green bead..."

"Wait......"

Renyi crouched down and took out the [Naga Gallbladder] that had dropped from killing the Naga earlier. "Is this it?"

"Yes!" she confirmed.

"Vanessa melted it into my body, and then I was like a drunkard, with voices babbling in my head... until they finally got me to agree."

"I wanted to try giving up my human identity... to see if I could break free from the game's control..."

"Okay, I agree."

Oh?

It turns out it's a contract system, requiring the person to sign and affix their fingerprint.

Thankfully, it's not some curse that turns anyone you like into a snake.

Ren Yi felt more confident.

"So how are you feeling now? Besides the change in your appearance, do you have any special abilities?"

"The [Forge Master]'s panel is missing..."

"No evolution points or proficiency are needed... but..."

Ethan exclaimed "Huh?" and his heart skipped a beat.

Isn't this just like deleting your account and starting over, only to find that the new account can't level up?

He cautiously glanced at Ren Yi's expressionless face; given his personality, he certainly wouldn't suddenly show kindness.

"but......"

Sita frowned, closed his eyes, and seemed to sense something.

"My head is filled with many things... some kind of Naga secret technique and blueprints, how to utilize Sea Soul Stones and the location of mining sites..."

The words hadn't even finished being spoken.

Sita felt a blur before his eyes, and his heavy body, along with his uncontrollable tail, was half-lifted up.

"It's alright." Renyi gently supported Xiduo's arm and helped her up, his expression so gentle it was almost heartwarming.

"It's just appearance, does it matter?"

"..."

"We also have an octopus on board. Biodiversity is beneficial to the stable development of the ecosystem!"

That makes sense, doesn't it?

Ivan nodded in agreement.

"False humans are still human in form, but no one would think they are human, but you, Miss Sita—"

"This is a rebirth, an evolution! It's like... a product iteration."

Is that so?

Sita felt his left brain attacking his right brain, and his cerebrum attacking his cerebellum; he could only stand there blankly, being supported at will.

"Aurora, lend a hand, Ethan, lead the way."

"Klaus!" He turned his head arbitrarily.

"what?"

Klaus, who was deep in thought about the possibility of the snake-like machine operating vertically, was called back to his senses.

"Get her a means of transportation... like a rehabilitation training cart, or a baby walker?" Renyi said as he handed Sita to Aurora.

"Come on, let me help you."

Sita looked at the tall and slender Aurora extending her hands to her, and instinctively wanted to dodge, "I'm very heavy right now—"

Before she could finish speaking, Aurora gently supported her back, practically hanging her entirely on her body.

Very stable, without any strain.

The warmth emanating from her skin felt real and comforting. Siddhartha stared blankly at Aurora's deep yet gentle profile, receiving an encouraging smile from her, which eased her tense nerves slightly.

Ethan had already returned from scouting the way through the main gate and urged:

"We need to hurry, those snake people have already organized a counterattack, the chickens won't last long."

"etc!"

Sita snapped out of her daze and quickly said, "I still have some things with me, may I take them with me?"

She was referring to the spot where she crawled out.

Perhaps the Queen felt she had completely controlled Sita, so she simply placed her in the storage area for supplies.

The group pushed open an inconspicuous stone door.

As soon as the door opened, a smell of metal, dust, and oil hit the door.

It was pitch black inside, without a single glimmer of light.

He randomly took out the glowing moss for illumination, but didn't take out the corona stone because he was afraid there might be some flammable material inside.

"We've struck it rich!"

Even with just a small area illuminated, Ivan couldn't help but whistle.

Beneath our feet were piles of blue stones, which reflected the light slightly, making everyone's face look like a tourist in an underwater world.

"These Sea Soul Stones are used by the Naga to make weapons and for rituals, as long as they are activated by special means."

Nod casually.

These are the things that are embedded in the weapons that were seized from the Naga warriors.

He walked around the pile of sea spirit stones and went further in.

On the right side were neatly stacked silver-gray metal ingots and various translucent ores.

"Aluminum ingots...very pure, and quartz too! This is...flint." Klaus's eyes lit up without needing further explanation.

Ethan walked to the innermost row of wooden barrels and knocked on them.

"Knock knock".

"Is this... oil?" He leaned closer and sniffed it.

“That’s right,” Sita replied. “It’s a very important fuel for them, although I don’t yet know what the Naga use it for…”

The only problem now is—

How are they going to take all of this stuff with them?

"How about we take them in batches..." Siddhartha belatedly remembered this and was about to suggest picking up the important ones first when she saw Ivan dragging in a huge 'cloth'.

This 'cloth' looks somewhat familiar.

Sita looked closely and realized that this was none other than Queen Vanessa's sloughed-off snake skin that she had laid out on her throne!

"Boss, take this bag!"

He gave Ivan an approving look, showing he had good judgment.

He then covered the pile of sea soul stones with the snake slough, its intricate patterns making him dizzy.

"break down."

Sita watched helplessly as the blue light silently spread, engulfing the snake's molt and the sea spirit stone beneath it.

[Decomposition successful]

[Received: 2631 Sea Soul Stones, 1 Naga Molt]

When he withdrew his hand, the space below was completely empty.

Seeing Sita arbitrarily decompose things for the first time, he couldn't help but rub his eyes.

Klaus excitedly beckoned Renyi to the ore pile, took the snake skin that Renyi had taken out again, and spread it out, his movements as skilled as a professional packer.

He casually placed his hand on it and subconsciously checked the properties of the shed snake skin:

【Naga's Molt (Rare)】

[Evaluation: It symbolizes her bloodline, her past, her...way of origin. But in your eyes, it's merely an excellent material combining deterrence and defense. PS: But now it's a packing bag.]

Very good, very practical.

Before arbitrarily deciding to find the next packing bag, don't use it as material.

"break down."
