Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 991 - 273: Every Step Is Hard, but the Future Is Bright (Part 3)

These data are crucial chips he has laid for the future development of the Spirit Breath Clan.

He considered setting up a small Space Teleportation Array in the mine to significantly improve the transport efficiency of Spirit Ore.

The materials used for construction can be purchased at the Trading Post and Player Mall, preferably using Space Department ores like "Void Origin Stone".

As for the technology required for construction, the Spirit Breath Clan's War Sacrifices possess space technology, but lack top-grade spiritual materials.

There are no space-related resources in this area either, so it's necessary to find fellow villagers for purchase.

With the Trading Post and Player Mall, he doesn't have to worry about not finding the resource types he wants. The only concern is whether the commodity prices are too high, leading to excessive initial investment costs.

Leaving the mine area and returning to the clan's land, the Little Mage arrived at the breeding area.

He could see a group of plump fish leisurely swimming; these are edible materials called "Frog Flower". Their flesh is tender, but the spiritual material content inside is thin, only supplementing the daily diet of the Spirit Breath Clan. Nearby, in the shallow water area, there were crystal worms, their whole bodies transparent like glass, turning an enticing pink when cooked. Though they taste good, they aren't even considered ordinary ingredients in the Monster World.

Yet, they are something only the top warriors of the Spirit Breath Clan can eat.

Before coming to the Monster World, the food used by ordinary members of the Spirit Breath Clan was not much better than Earth's, carrying minimal spiritual material content.

Only the warriors of the Super Beast Legion had the right to enjoy spiritual ingredients.

But those who could come to the Monster World were the elite of the Spirit Breath Clan, so these ingredients fell from top-grade to ordinary ingredients.

Turning his gaze to the fence by the shore, a group of round-bodied colored feathers were pecking at crystal stone fragments. Their feathers displayed a soft gradient color, and the eggs they laid were dotted with light golden spots, looking quite exquisite.

The meat quality of these poultry were far inferior to that of wild monsters but they had a faster breeding speed.

Yet, this type of ingredient was essentially on the verge of elimination, no longer suitable for the future needs of the Spirit Breath Clan.

For personal growth assistance, it was better to gnaw wild grass all over the Illusion Flower Plain when hungry.

After inspecting the breeding area, a thought emerged in the Little Mage's mind.

Could it be possible to create a breeding farm for spiritual ingredients within the Spirit Breath Clan, then sell various ingredients at the Trading Post to earn sacrificial power?

The strongest advantage of the Spirit Breath Clan is biotechnology.

If this advantage could be maximized, it would not only meet the internal demand of the clan but could also become a hot commodity at the Trading Post.

After all, there are quite a few food lovers in the Player Corps, and he is one of them.

Currently, the way players obtain ingredients is very singular, only through external hunting, which is depleting resources.

For example, catching the Golden Claw Crab along the Colorful Mist Coast is becoming increasingly difficult, with significantly reduced numbers.

Many ingredient supplies entirely depend on what the Hunting Party players can catch.

If in the future the Spirit Breath Clan could establish a breeding farm for ingredients like the Golden Claw Crab, they could then jump on the rapidly developing train of the Player Corps.

Becoming a supplier of ingredients for the Player Corps.

Whether to sell at a high or low price was secondary, the important thing was having a sales channel to continuously produce sacrificial power income.

At worst, sacrificing to the Sacrificial Emperor was also an option.

Additionally, helping players lower the Trading Post's ingredient prices was also indirectly aiding the growth of the Player Corps, and might even wash away his "guilt" in the future.

But to do so, he first needed living ingredients for research, and direct purchase from the Trading Post wasn't feasible.

Amidst the surging thoughts, the Little Mage made a decision.

One of the key projects for the future external exploration of the Spirit Breath Clan was to find wild monsters that are delicious and high in spiritual material content, capture and try breeding them.

...

After concluding a two-day inspection survey, the Little Mage finally arrived at the resource warehouse and turned off the live broadcast feature.

He then began selecting resources inside.

After making a round, he walked straight to the innermost mineral section, picking up pieces of glowing Ghost Crystal. These are unique energy ores of the Spirit Breath Clan's territory, crucial resources in the clan's development.

After storing them in his Space Bag, he started a batch listing.

He referred to the prices of other spiritual ores in the Trading Post and estimated a slightly lower market price.

This type of spiritual ore could only be sold based on the value of spiritual material content, with each piece having different worth, requiring considerable effort.

He could let the Guidance provide scanning service at any time, but Guidance always shirked from tedious tasks, so he had to activate Eagle-Headed Demon Perception to calculate by himself.

Soon after, the Challenger began to continuously ring in his mind.

[Challenger Tips: You have listed Ghost Crystal x248 and successfully sold them, gaining sacrificial power: 928 (after deducting handling fees)]

[System Tips]You have listed Ghost Crystal ×285, successfully sold them, gaining sacrificial power: 1047 (after deducting handling fees)]

After listing most of this pile of Ghost Crystals, his hands soon gained 183,600 sacrificial power.

Seemingly a lot, it was still far from the target of making rules.

The remaining parts remained untouched as the Little Mage turned to another area, pulling out three crates of "Star Dust Sand".

As the crate lids were lifted, the silvery-white fine powder glimmered under the warehouse's dim light.

These sands were war trophies looted from other worlds during the Spirit Breath Clan's early cross-boundary conquests, containing elemental energy with weak impurities.

Theoretically, these were excellent materials for crafting high-strength weaponry and equipment.

But only theoretically.
