Chapter 21 - Dried Yellow Eel, So Fierce

It wasn't just the keyboard warriors of the Dragon Kingdom who thought this way; even Matsushita secretly harbored the same fear.

Qin Feng had already shattered his courage.

Now, Matsushita cupped his tea with trembling hands, sipping it in small, shaky gulps.

Even Commander Meichuan Ku, despite his red-level talent and mastery of karate, would likely fare poorly against that Dragon Kingdom ironman.

As the Dragon Kingdom netizens had said, after killing the two Sakura Kingdom guardians, Qin Feng had sealed the Red Snakes one by one into treasure chests and returned to the Dragon Kingdom's border gate.

By the time he arrived, the defensive wall had already automatically constructed itself.

Though it was only a basic wall, it stood nearly ten meters tall and looked quite sturdy.

Qin Feng felt slightly relieved.

Sister Bao'er sat idly at the base of the wall, playing with mud.

Lin Jiu had long since returned.

"The ritual was successfully completed. The Spirit Energy here is abundant. I hope I can make the Golden Armored Corpse emerge before the night after tomorrow!"

He looked utterly exhausted, likely drained by the casting of such a forbidden technique.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Jiu."

"Huh? Little brother, what's in this box?" Sister Bao'er asked curiously, eyeing the white chest Qin Feng had brought back.

"Pfft... Box-box... I'm bleeding from being so utterly charmed."

"Ah!! My wife is too cute!"

"Do Sichuan girls all like using reduplicated words to act cute? Just to seduce my husband, hmph!"

"@Upstairs, it's not acting. Sichuan dialect naturally uses a lot of reduplicated words."

"Ugh... I can't even imagine what it would be like for a grown man to have several reduplicated words popping out of every sentence."

"Don't imagine it... I'm already gay..."

Qin Feng brought the box closer, smiling. "Oh, I almost forgot! There's some delicious food inside! I brought it back just for you."

"You brought it back just for me?" Sister Bao'er was delighted.

Just as she was about to open it, Qin Feng stopped her. "Don't rush. These little things are quite fierce!"

With that, he personally opened the treasure chest.

Hiss!

The moment it opened, a Red Snake inside bit his hand. Fortunately, his mecha protected him—he was fine!

"This is..." Lin Jiu's eyes lit up at the sight of the Red Snake. "Could this be a Nine-Tailed Cockscomb Snake?!"

"Dried Yellow Eel?!" Sister Bao'er was also surprised. "So many Dried Yellow Eels!

"Uncle Jiu, you recognize these?" Qin Feng asked. "This snake venom is incredibly potent! Good thing we're wearing mechs, or we'd be in serious trouble!"

Lin Jiu grabbed one of the snakes by its seven-inch mark, and the creature writhed furiously in his hand. After careful examination, he confirmed:

"That's it! It's the Nine-Tailed Cockscomb Snake from the Strange Tales Record."

"This snake's venom is known as the most potent in the world. People call it the 'One-Drop Killer'—as the name suggests, a single drop is enough to kill a person."

"Holy crap, this snake is that deadly?"

"One-Drop Killer... what a badass name!"

"Uh, what's the 'Dried Yellow Eel' my wife was talking about?"

"@Upstairs, it's the snake, you idiot!"

"Meichuan Ku from the Sakura Kingdom didn't wear pants and died from multiple snake bites. He got off lucky, didn't he?"

"Meichuan Ku... not wearing pants... haha, you're killing me, upstairs!"

"I looked it up, and the Strange Tales Record actually exists! The digital version's description of the Nine-Tailed Cockscomb Snake matches exactly!"

"Haha, I told you Uncle Jiu had some skills! You guys kept calling him a liar! Aren't you ashamed?"

"..."

"These dried yellow eels are so fierce. Brother Qin, you said the snacks you were giving me were safe, right? How come they're poisonous?" Sister Bao'er said, disappointed.

Lin Jiu took out a small porcelain bottle, placed a snake fang against the opening, and let a few drops of venom drip into the bottle.

"After neutralizing the poison like this, they're safe to eat."

With that, he also removed the venomous fang.

"This venom will come in handy!"

Afterward, Lin Jiu proceeded to extract venom and remove fangs from the entire box of Nine-Tailed Cockscomb Snakes.

Sister Bao'er roasted the remaining small snakes.

"Ouch! Hot, hot, hot!"

"So fragrant! Delicious!"

"Brother Qin, you have to try this—it's absolutely divine!"

Sister Bao'er offered the roasted snake to Qin Feng.

He shook his head and said, "Sister Bao'er, take these two knives instead."

In Qin Feng's hands were the Thunderstruck Twin Blades!

"Huh? What's this now?" Sister Bao'er picked up the blades and examined them closely.

"Ah! Why! Why does my husband dote on her so much! I won't stand for this!"

"Sigh... I didn't expect Great God Qin Feng to be so easily swayed by a pretty face. And he's acting like a lovesick puppy! So disappointing."

"Don't say that. Great God Qin Feng must have his reasons for doing this."

"Exactly! Husband always has a purpose behind his actions. Nothing he does is without cause."

Qin Feng then took out the Centennial Peachwood Sword and said, "Uncle Jiu, I wonder if this sword will feel comfortable in your hands."

When the peachwood sword was handed to him, Lin Jiu's eyes lit up.

"Is this really for me?"

"What else could it be!"

"Heh heh, it fits! It fits perfectly!"

Lin Jiu nodded repeatedly without even touching the sword.

Even though he was usually stoic, he couldn't help but beam with delight.

With the peachwood sword in hand, he channeled a bit of his qi.

Instantly, the sword emitted faint golden light!

"What a treasure, what a treasure!"

Lin Jiu stroked the sword.

With just a touch of qi, it displayed such power.

His family's peachwood sword, passed down for centuries, required him to bite his finger and bless it with his vital blood.

Yet even then, its power was less than thirty percent of this sword's...

"Brother Qin, this is a perfect tool for slaying demons and banishing evil!"

Lin Jiu's face flushed crimson with excitement.

Sister Bao'er also channeled a bit of qi, causing the Thunderstruck Twin Blades to emit a faint blue glow.

"Hmm? These twin blades seem... different?"

"They feel... sharper than my Okamoto 0.01."

Arcing electricity danced across the blades.

The golden and blue light illuminated the faces of the trio.

"Holy shit... it can do that?!"

"As expected! Items from the National Battlefield are no ordinary junk!"

"Even Sister Bao'er can make her weapon glow? This weapon is insane!"

"Since it's all been given away, what weapon will Great God Qin Feng use now?"

"My husband still has a few peachwood swords, no worries! Besides, he's better with armor anyway."

While the netizens were slightly stunned, Qin Feng himself was growing increasingly uneasy.

Inside his helmet, Qin Feng's eyes widened.

Holy shit! Is this what Spirit Energy is all about?

You can actually enhance weapons with it!

There's no doubt that weapons dropped on the national battlefield would be even more powerful after being enhanced with Spirit Energy.

Thinking of this, Qin Feng grew envious.

"When the time is right, I'll definitely learn how to cultivate Spirit Energy!"

After a day of work, the three of them rested for the night.

The next morning, Sister Bao'er was up early, clamoring to ride a mech.

She had woken up in the middle of the night and suddenly remembered that Qin Feng had an unused mech—the Crab Sea!

She had been so excited that she couldn't sleep for the rest of the night.

Qin Feng was at his wit's end but had no choice but to let her have her way.

After all, the prototype mech was just sitting there.

"Haha, I'm finally riding the Crab Sea!"

Sister Bao'er was ecstatic after climbing into the Mark 1.

Clank, clank, clank...

She drove the prototype mech back and forth in front of the national gate, cheering and jumping like a child.
