Only I can make them stronger

"The second item is a subspace backpack. It is the only one that matches your inspiration frequency. No one except you can open it. It can carry 3*3*3 cubic meters of items."

"These two items are your exclusive equipment. When you get better materials in the future, you can give them to me to help you upgrade them."

"The optimal materials and alternative materials that need to be used are all written down and placed in the box. You can keep an eye on it."

After saying that, Canaanzi put the metal box in Xia Ye's hand.

"So you... have been working so hard these past two days, forgetting to eat or sleep, and you are actually doing this?"

After receiving the two great gifts, Xia Ye still felt like he was in a dream.

The gift from the other party was just like her straightforward and unpretentious style, simple, practical, and hitting the pain points.

"Protect Anko and the newcomer Fiti, and also protect yourself. I still need you to continue providing samples."

Canaanzi did not give a direct answer. He just adjusted his glasses, gave some instructions, and walked towards the living room.

…………

"Then... 500 Shia City-State Merits, the client is Jinniel, and the commissioned party is the Shia City-State Qianshi Office..."

"The people involved are clerks Xia Ye, An Ke, and Fiti."

"Are you sure?"

Finally, Jinniel finalized the commission contract and looked at Xia Ye and asked.

"Well, that's all, thank you for your patronage~" The latter was in a very good mood as he got two good things.

"We are the ones who should say thank you. If you really encounter danger beyond our capabilities, we will do our best to ensure your safety, and temporarily escaping from the commission contract will not be considered a breach of contract."

Jinelle shook her head seriously.

"It's so polite to say this..." Xia Ye waved his hand.

"Just sign it. I'll go to your entrustment center later to take effect." Seeing this, Jinniel didn't say anything more and handed over the contract.

As the name was signed, a new prompt came from Xia Ye's system:

[Common Bond Mission* appears]

[Task name: The gears start turning]

[Mission content: Let Karen and Jinniel survive in the gear city]

[Mission Reward: Karen and Jinniel's favorability increases, Phoenix Office's alert value -2]

[Note: This mission is a "*" type mission. This type of mission is extremely dangerous and is likely to cause casualties to the bond owner. Please treat it with caution.]

"The mission content is very straightforward... As expected, there will be a big battle after the supplies are delivered." Xia Ye sighed secretly and handed the contract back to Jinniel.

The three words "survive" seem quite shocking.

Seeing that the dust had settled, Luo Qi sighed.

"So... everyone, dinner?"

1. Beauty comes so suddenly

Back in the room, Xia Ye lay on the bed thinking.

Although the food on the table was still rich, Luoqi, Shana and Leah seemed a little silent.

Xia Ye knew why this was happening, but he didn't have any better solution.

It’s okay that we can’t go on a mission together, but the gear city that Canaanzi mentioned is too dangerous, which makes everyone feel worried, which is normal.

"Think of a way to make them feel a little more at ease..."

Xia Ye placed the metal box given to her by Canaanzi on her chest and opened it. Inside was a ring with a high-tech feel and a pair of simple silver bracelets.

In order to make them easier to carry and use, Canaanzi deliberately made the two devices into the simplest appearance.

He first took out the ring, which was a subspace backpack, a kind of space pocket that had only appeared in novels and games.

Xia Ye put it on his ring finger according to the instructions. After touching it with inspiration, a void space inexplicably appeared in front of his eyes.

This space is cubic in shape and seems to be completely independent of the surrounding rooms. It also has an almost invisible boundary, which looks quite strange.

Then, Xia Ye picked up the pillow next to him and put it in, breaking the contact with inspiration.

The empty space disappeared immediately, along with the pillow.

"It's more useful than I thought..." Xia Ye opened the space again and thought as he looked at the pillow lying quietly inside.

27 cubic meters can be considered a small room, and it can even allow him to take a bed with him.

But Xia Ye had no such plan.

For wilderness survival, food, protective clothing, various emergency equipment, medicines, etc. are the most important.

Such a large space is enough to hold all the supplies for at least one month even for the five-person team on this trip.

"Go buy some tomorrow, and keep at least ten days' supply."

Thinking of this, Xia Ye closed the subspace backpack contentedly and turned his eyes to the pair of silver bracelets.

As he put on the bracelet according to the instructions, the system prompt suddenly came:

[Localized energy conversion mode detected, conversion efficiency is being calculated]

[Calculation completed, current conversion rate: 1 mental force = 20 equivalent physical elements (subject to loss due to the total conversion amount)]

[Energy visualization window is being installed]

[Loading completed, the host can observe the energy equivalent value after its conversion through the visualization window]

[Trying to build new independent traits]

[Attempt failed, lack of necessary factors]

[In parallel with external device loading mode, the relevant function window is temporarily built. After the device is released, the function will be temporarily closed.]

Xia Ye looked at this series of incomprehensible contents and roughly understood them.

The general meaning is that he will be able to see the physical element equivalent converted by himself in real time, but since this thing lacks certain necessary factors, it cannot become his own ability and can only function temporarily in the form of a bracelet equipment.

He hadn't thought that this thing could possibly become one of his permanent abilities, nor did he know what the "necessary factors" were.

But anyway, it's good that the system can provide him with clearer and more convenient usage.

Xia Ye opened the newly added window in the system. The records in it were quite simple:

[Current mental strength: 80/80]

[Current conversion margin: 0]

[Storage capacity of converted elements: 0/200 (the portion exceeding the capacity limit will be dissipated within 10 seconds)]

[Maximum conversion amount per time: 300 equivalents]

At the bottom of the page, there is a white [Start Conversion] button.

Xia Ye couldn't wait to click the button and chose to inject 1 mental power.

It seemed that a connection had been established between his brain and the bracelet, and something was flowing into the latter. At the same time, he clearly felt a very distinct cool feeling coming from the bracelet.

In an instant, a layer of bright light lit up between his palms, just like the brown-yellow light that usually appeared on Leah's body when she activated her rational element, except that the color was flawless white.

From this layer of light, Xia Ye can clearly feel the power!

Then he picked up a pen and squeezed it gently.

The high-quality pen shell was turned into broken shell so easily, and through the system, he saw that this action consumed less than 10 equivalents.

Seeing this scene, Xia Ye almost cried with joy.

I can finally use rational elements!

He now has better ways to deal with many situations where his mental strength and natural abilities are not enough to fully cope with them!

The era of using healing fire to resist physical attacks and causing a sharp drop in mental strength is finally over!

For a moment, Xia Ye was like a child who got a new toy, and began to seriously study the control of Li Su.

I don’t know how long it had been, but the bright moon was hanging outside the window and suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in." Xia Ye looked towards the door in confusion. Who would suddenly come to see him at this time?

Anyway, it won’t be Liasana and Luo Qi. The first two will not knock on the door at all, but the latter will be the first to ask herself, "Is Mr. Xia Ye asleep?"

The door opened and the person who came in was Fitty, who was wearing a black nun's dress.

"What's wrong, Fiti?" Seeing this, Xia Ye became even more confused.

Looking at her expression, she seemed a little shy and embarrassed.

What is this going to do?

"Xia Ye, I have something...I want to ask you."

"what's up?"

Hearing this, the little girl did not speak immediately. Instead, she closed the door, locked it carefully, bit her lip, looked around, and stood there silently.

"Why do I feel like I just saw this scene not long ago..." Xia Ye narrowed his eyes.

Could it be that this girl is here to sacrifice herself like Karen?

"Um...Xia Ye, I want you to help me..."

After a long silence, Fitty slowly spoke.

"See...what?"

"This..." After saying this, she seemed to have made a big decision, took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

Then she lifted up her skirt.

The sudden beautiful scenery almost made Xia Ye choke on his saliva.

The thin dark gray suspender stockings wrap around the slender yet well-proportioned white legs. There is a heart-shaped mesh hollow in the middle of the black lace triangle.

We are used to seeing the voluptuous and mature figures of Shana and Leah, but Fiti's youthful figure with a girlish feel has a unique flavor.

Like a delicate and fragile piece of art.

At this moment, the charming and seductive style of her lower body outfit formed a sharp contrast with Fitty's ascetic holy nun uniform and her little face which had begun to flush.

Xia Ye had long known that there was such beauty hidden beneath this nun's uniform; it was clearly depicted in the design drawing that Mia showed him.

This was also the reason why he wanted to buy the clothes right away, thinking that it would add a lot of fun to his relationship with Fitty later on.

But he really didn't expect that this beauty would suddenly appear before his eyes in such a way and so quickly.

2. I will be with you no matter you win or lose

"The manual says that this dress has two types of inner structures. One is like this, and the other is..."

As Fitty spoke, a rational light surged from her body, and the suspender stockings and lace triangle turned into a pair of black nine-point leggings, completely covering her white legs.

"This dress is so convenient. Should I also ask Mia to customize a set for me? It will save a lot of trouble." Xia Ye thought with his eyes wide open.

He originally thought they were two sets of bottoms, but he didn't expect that he could switch seamlessly using the rational element.

"But the above does not mention the effects of these two, so I want you to help see which one is more suitable for going out to fight." Fiti continued:

"I'm afraid... I'll hold you back because of such a small matter."

"So that's what it is..." Xia Ye wiped the non-existent sweat and repented for the evil thoughts in his mind before.

But it seems that Fitty is too naive and doesn't even know what stockings are.

He smiled helplessly and said:

"If you're going out to fight, this set is of course more suitable. It can effectively protect your body and won't expose yourself."

"What does 'exposure' mean?" Hearing this, Fitty raised her eyes and asked in a low voice, seeming a little embarrassed by her ignorance.

"Uh……"

This question actually stumped Xia Ye.
