Mobile Shelter

Chapter 131 Farm or 2D Space or Storage Bracelet

Having confirmed that all the additional equipment could be used normally, Dong Qi now only needed to consider the types of spiritual artifacts he needed to fuse for his advancement.

After the Destiny Chariot is upgraded from a magic weapon to a spiritual artifact, the most significant change is that it can automatically absorb unclaimed energy from heaven and earth.

Although the absorption rate may be relatively slow, it is still being absorbed at all times.

In fact, what Dong Qi wanted most was to upgrade his natal chariot to the level of a spirit treasure. Once the natal chariot was upgraded to the level of a spirit treasure, Dong Qi could store it in his dantian.

However, he only needs to advance once more. Although it requires a huge amount of metal materials, no matter how difficult it is, it gives Dong Qi something to look forward to.

At this moment, the most important thing for Dong Qi is to choose the right type of promotion item.

According to the original plan, Dong Qi should have chosen a flying boat as his advancement item at this time. A flying boat of the spirit weapon level would be able to travel through the air.

Although the flying boat of this grade is not very fast, after the vehicle transforms into its flying boat form, it also gains the ability to fly and travel on water.

The reason why the car was able to sail on water before was because Peng Qi added a water propulsion system to it.

Because of the urgency of the situation, the external water propulsion system that was installed was relatively simple. Although it could still be used before it was removed, the speed of water navigation was not very fast.

Most importantly, the addition of this external power system wasted the space used to install the robotic arm, so when Peng Qi was installing the robotic arm on his vehicle, he simply removed it.

Even with the power system removed, the vehicle still retains its ability to navigate on water.

Don't forget the mechanical claws that were installed later. With their claws open, the rapidly rotating claws are powerful enough to be used as propellers.

Therefore, after removing the external water propulsion system, the speed of the vehicle on water not only did not decrease, but actually increased several times.

Therefore, the promotion items that Dong Qi will consider next, such as flying boats, are no longer important.

If he had to choose a flight-related upgrade item, Dong Qi would actually prefer a science fiction-themed space landing ship over a flying boat.

Dong Qi did not want to choose the spaceship directly, but at this point he only had 10,000 energy points, and it was almost impossible to exchange them for a spaceship directly.

Furthermore, even when exchanging for a landing ship, 10,000 energy points can only be exchanged for the lowest quality space landing ship.

A spacecraft of this quality can only travel short distances in space at most, and it doesn't even have the ability to jump between spaces.

Therefore, exchanging for a space landing ship at this time is indeed somewhat of a waste for Dong Qi, except for gaining the ability to fly.

Although Dong Qi needed to plan ahead, he was actually less inclined to exchange for flying boat-type items as the time for exchanging for promotion items approached.

To be honest, Dong Qi doesn't have any need for flying items in the short term.

So after much consideration, Dong Qi finally decided to exchange for space-type equipment.

Using space-type equipment for upgrades can greatly increase a vehicle's carrying capacity.

Although the car I'm based on has already acquired an upgradeable space feature, and although the resources required for the upgrade are not clearly stated, it will likely require items with space-related attributes.

At this point, the only absorbable items Dong Qi could think of were those awakened individuals with spatial abilities who could be sacrificed.

But at this time, let alone those who have awakened spatial abilities, even the most ordinary awakened person will be protected by the imperial court.

Therefore, if Dong Qi wants to improve the interior space, it's better to utilize space-related equipment.

Having made up his mind, Dong Qi didn't hesitate any longer and directly used his energy points to make the exchange.

As the energy level in his mind rapidly decreased, three different options eventually appeared in Dong Qi's mind.

Fantasy Side: Farm Space Seeds

Fantasy/Culture Side: Storage Bracelet

Technology side: Two-dimensional subspace generator.

Dong Qi was stunned for a moment after seeing the three different options that appeared in his mind.

Previously, three different types of options were given, but they were basically either fantasy or sci-fi. This is the first time that items from the fantasy side have appeared.

Therefore, Dong Qi was very curious about it, so he first checked the details of this option.

Farm Space Seed: Using this will grant your vehicle a separate space, similar to that in a farm game.

This farm space is very similar to the previous vegetable stealing games. In the initial stage, there is only one piece of land in the space where crops can be grown.

Although the planting area is relatively small, it inherits the characteristics of farm games.

Planting crops doesn't require tedious farming; all the tedious work can be completed instantly with just a thought.

Furthermore, although the entire planting process has lost the ability to accelerate growth like in the game, it retains the game's features.

Whether it's sowing, watering, pest control, or harvesting, you can get it all done with just one thought.

In addition, to upgrade the farm, simply decompose crops in the farm space to allow the farm to gain upgrade experience.

Each time the farm is upgraded, it gains an upgrade opportunity. This upgrade opportunity can not only expand into new arable land, but also upgrade existing land.

Upgraded farmland will have similar effects to those in the game, not only accelerating crop growth, but also allowing the planting of higher-level plants after multiple upgrades.

In addition, the farm space also includes a well.

However, compared to the game, although there are very few options for consuming water, the water in the well is inexhaustible.

At this time, the well in the farm space only produces ten liters of water per day.

Of course, wells can also be upgraded. Upgrading not only increases the water production of the well, but also improves the quality of the water. As long as the water quality is high enough, the well water produced daily can be comparable to the legendary spiritual water of heaven and earth.

Besides the well, a warehouse for storing crops is also essential in the farm space.

Just like in the game, crops stored in this warehouse generally do not rot.

This means that most of the spatial equipment in this warehouse has the ability to stop time.

However, this warehouse, apart from having the characteristic of stagnant space, has lost the characteristics of infinite space and the infinite stacking of the same type of items.

However, the warehouse can also be upgraded continuously, but upgrading the warehouse will not gain any other abilities, it will only increase the internal storage space volume.

Unlike games, the farm space does not have a shop system; all crop seeds used for planting can only be purchased from outside sources.

In addition, seeds of a particular crop may be obtained unexpectedly during each harvest.

In addition, crops produced in all farm spaces cannot be cultivated or planted again.

To give a simple example, the seeds inside a watermelon produced on a farm cannot be used as seeds for replanting.

Furthermore, it is not limited to direct planting or grafting cultivation methods; it is as if the underlying genes are locked, making secondary cultivation impossible.

To achieve a perfect internal circulation within the farm space, the cultivated land needs to be upgraded to a higher level. As the level of the cultivated land increases, the probability of obtaining the seeds of that crop will also increase after each harvest.

However, although this space is named the Farm Space, in reality, like other spatial equipment, living creatures cannot be sent into the Farm Space.

The farm space is like an old computer game, where you can only perform limited operations and have very little freedom.

On the Xianxia side: There's not much to say about the storage bracelet; choosing this will give you a large storage space of 1000*1000*1000.

Although living things cannot be stored inside the space, it can directly alleviate Dong Qi's storage pressure at this time.

Compared to the first two options, which both grant new storage space, the two-dimensional space generator on the technology side is somewhat different.

The 2D space generator cannot directly create a storage space. Instead, it directly converts the items to be stored into two dimensions, turning a three-dimensional object into a two-dimensional piece of paper.

Simply put, this thing is similar to a one-time storage talisman in the world of fantasy novels, or a storage scroll in Naruto.

And most importantly, there is no limit to the number of times this thing can be used.

Theoretically, provided there is a sufficient energy supply, this thing has the effect of the two-dimensional foil in the Three-Body Problem novel, capable of reducing the entire Milky Way to a two-dimensional plane.

Of course, theory is theory, but in reality, the two-dimensional space generator that Dong Qi exchanged at this time was just a small device.

The time required for dimensionality reduction varies depending on the size of the item being transformed.

Most importantly, depending on the energy consumed during dimensional reduction, the reduced-dimensional item will revert to a three-dimensional item after the energy required to maintain its two-dimensional state is exhausted.

In other words, even after an item is reduced in dimensionality, it still has a time limit.

However, as long as more energy is consumed during dimensional reduction, the reduced-dimensional object can be kept in a two-dimensional state for a long time.

In addition, compared to the first two options, items that have been reduced in dimensionality by the 2D space generator can also be used by other people.

As long as the reduced two-dimensional plane is destroyed, the reduced-dimensional object will immediately revert to a three-dimensional state.

After carefully reviewing the details of the three options, to be honest, no matter which option is chosen, it would be extremely suitable for Dong Qi.

The three options represent three different emphases.

Choosing farm space, although it requires an extremely long wait, undoubtedly offers the highest potential for future development.

However, if you choose a storage bracelet, you can immediately gain a large amount of storage space, which can solve the current problem instantly.

These two drastically different choices resemble a fable.

A kind farmer happened to encounter two hungry rabbits, and out of kindness, he said to them:

"I'll give you two choices. You can choose to get one hundred carrots right away, so you won't feel hungry all winter."

Or I could give you an acre of carrot seeds. If you plant them and take good care of them, you'll never encounter this situation again.

Faced with the two options presented by the farmer, the two rabbits made completely opposite choices.

One rabbit chooses to immediately obtain one hundred carrots to solve its current food problem.

The other rabbit chose carrot seeds and took them back to plant.

In the past, many people would have laughed at the first rabbit for being silly, unable to distinguish between a full meal and a full meal every day.

But there is actually another interpretation to this story.

The rabbit that chose carrot seeds planted them, but starved to death in the winter because there was no food.

The rabbit that chose carrots had a full winter and then took over the carrot patch planted by the rabbit that starved to death in winter, and from then on lived a life of plenty.

This short story shows that it wasn't that the rabbit who chose the carrot was short-sighted, but rather that the rabbit knew that even if it meant sacrificing long-term benefits, choosing the carrot would guarantee its immediate survival.

The rabbit that chose the carrot seeds, though seemingly clever in preserving its long-term interests, failed to consider the impending crisis.

Fortunately, Dong Qi is not like those two rabbits, who will face a life-or-death crisis in the near future.

In fact, if Dong Qi had chosen the two-dimensional space generator, even if the items had a time limit after being reduced in dimension, the fact that other people could use the reduced-dimensional items at will would have allowed Dong Qi to acquire a great deal of wealth.

However, once Dong Qi reveals the function of the two-dimensional space generator, he will immediately become the target of public criticism.

This thing's strategic value is definitely higher than Miss Qiu's.

Therefore, once the imperial court learns that Dong Qi possesses a two-dimensional space generator, it will inevitably seek to confiscate it from Dong Qi.

The imperial court's levies were not like transactions between ordinary people, where one could refuse if a price couldn't be agreed upon.

Once the imperial court initiates the requisition process, it will first take away the requisitioned items, and then negotiate the price with the owners of the requisitioned items.

If the owner of the requisitioned goods is not satisfied with the price offered by the imperial court.

The imperial court would not take any excessive actions, but would instead have someone else continue negotiating the specific price.

Since the goods have already been taken away by the imperial court, and the valuation of the goods will take a long time, it will not have much impact on the imperial court.

So after thinking for a long time, although Dong Qi could also secretly use the two-dimensional space generator on his own.

But if you're only using this for yourself, it's actually not as convenient as a storage bracelet.

After all, using the storage bracelet to store items would only consume a little mental energy, and even if used frequently for a long time, it wouldn't put too much pressure on Dong Qi.

After ruling out the two-dimensional space generator from the technology side, Dong Qi hesitated for a moment before finally choosing the farm space seed from the fantasy side.

The main reason for choosing this late-game item is that Dong Qi's current situation is not like that of the rabbit in the fable that is about to starve to death.

At this point, Dong Qi, who is not facing immediate danger, still has a considerable amount of time to grow and develop. Therefore, choosing farm seeds at this time will not pose too much of a challenge for Dong Qi's future survival.

As Dong Qi made his final decision, a seed that looked like crystal suddenly appeared in his hand.

Afterwards, Dong Qi called Suzuki Masako, who was resting in the car, down and casually tossed the crystal seed into the car.

Standing to the side, Suzuki Masako looked at Dong Qi with some confusion, wondering why he was making such a strange move.

Then, under Masako Suzuki's puzzled gaze, the bulky appearance of the car, which had been modified by the addition of the robotic arm, gradually began to change.

The robotic arms that were originally installed on both sides of the vehicle have vanished without a trace.

Then, to Masako Suzuki's astonishment, the robotic arm that had disappeared suddenly reappeared from the position where it had been fixed at the end of the robotic arm.

If an outsider didn't know the interior space of the car, they would think that the robotic arm had simply retracted into the cabin before it came out.

In addition, the drone launch bays that were originally installed on the roof of the vehicle also disappeared after the vehicle was upgraded.

Once the vehicle's upgrade is complete, its appearance, which had been completely altered, returns to its initial state.

Immediately after his natal chariot was upgraded, Dong Qi's body inexplicably surged with energy, which circulated through his meridians for a full cycle.

Dong Qi could then clearly feel that as this energy circulated within his body, his physical fitness was constantly improving.

When the energy that had suddenly appeared in his body disappeared, Dong Qi felt that his physical fitness had been enhanced once again.

Then, Dong Qi couldn't wait any longer and opened the attribute panel in his mind to check the specific situation after his natal car was promoted.

The removal of upgrade restrictions on the chassis frame means that the conditions limiting upgrades to your favorite car have been lifted.

However, the level of his natal chariot after its advancement was not a spiritual weapon, but only a treasure weapon, which left Dong Qi somewhat at a loss.

Dong Qi thought that after his natal chariot was promoted, its level would be raised to the level of a spiritual weapon, and then it would be promoted one level further, allowing it to directly enter the level of a spiritual treasure. In this way, Dong Qi would be able to store his natal chariot into his body.

Dong Qi never expected that there would be a transitional grade called "treasure weapon" between magic weapons and spiritual artifacts.

However, no matter how unwilling Dong Qi was, he couldn't directly upgrade his natal chariot to the level of a spirit weapon, and in the end he could only accept it helplessly.
