RPAGF Chapter 165 Huge Harvest
Chapter 165 Huge Harvest
The shelter's doors slowly closed, the clamor of the battle's end gradually replaced by the busy activity inside. Through the dim light from the windows, one could clearly see the shelter gradually growing stronger.
Compared to hostile organizations outside, the shelter may still be a nascent force, but under Mo Ming's meticulous planning, its advantages are gradually accumulating.
While the gains from this battle weren't enough to propel the shelter forward significantly, they did lay a foundation for future development.
Mo Ming stood in the center of the courtyard, holding the list of captured weapons in his hand, looking at the pile of weapons on the ground, his thoughts racing.
"Stone, Manmeng, come here." Hearing the call, the two quickly ran over.
Looking at the pile of weapons on the ground—knives, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks—he was filled with surprise. Had he stumbled upon a bandit's den?
"Chief, did you raid a bandit's den?" Stone said with a half-joking smile, his eyes fixed on the equipment, eager to try it out.
Man Meng nodded, picked up a heavy axe and swung it twice, making a "whoosh" sound as it cut through the air. His face was full of joy: "These weapons are all of superior quality!"
Mo Ming smiled and nodded: "Don't just be happy. Although these weapons are diverse, they are only the basic step. Shi Tou, you and Man Meng are responsible for classifying and accurately registering these weapons. There must be no omissions!"
These were once weapons used by orcs, and will serve as resources for the development of our territory.
Upon hearing this, Stone immediately stood up straight: "Understood, Chief. Don't worry, we'll take full responsibility for the armory. There won't be any problems."
He looked up and glanced at the equipment scattered on the ground, patted his chest and said, "It will take at least a day to put all this in."
Man Meng was not good at speaking, but his eyes were full of expectation.
Including this batch, Mo Ming now has enough weapons to arm a 100-man squad.
"Let's get started right away, we're moving in a couple of days."
Mo Ming turned his gaze to Man Meng and said, “Man Meng, there are quite a few heavy weapons among these weapons. Be careful not to handle them roughly during transport. There are also some unfamiliar weapons that we don’t understand. Put them in a special category for now and we will test them later before allocating them.”
Upon hearing this, Man Meng scratched his head and smiled shyly: "Alright, I'll get started right away. I'm good at physical labor anyway!"
Seeing the two of them immediately get busy, Mo Ming felt a little relieved and turned around to call Duo Duo over.
What he captured in the battle was not just these weapons, but also many more key resources. What pleased him the most was the Five Elements Furnace - Crimson Fire, which contained special energy.
While equipment and troops are important, logistics and medical care are the foundation that support the entire system in order to survive stably in a chaotic world in the long term.
Soon, Duoduo came skipping over. When she saw Mo Ming, she first gave him a bright smile. Then, when she noticed the dark red device behind him that emitted a faint light, her eyes widened.
"Big brother, this is... the Five Elements Furnace?"
Duo Duo's voice revealed barely concealed excitement and surprise, "Is this really the Five Elements Furnace - Crimson Fire?! The legendary top-tier alchemy equipment!"
This time it was Mo Ming's turn to be surprised: "Duo Duo, you recognize this Five Elements Furnace?"
"Of course, but I've only ever seen it in my grandfather's notes. I never thought I'd actually see a real Five Elements Furnace one day! There are five of these Five Elements Furnaces, each representing one of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth."
Each has a different function; this fire-attribute Crimson Flame Alchemy Furnace is used to refine elixirs!
Mo Ming chuckled and nodded, "I didn't expect you to know so much, Duo Duo! Hahaha, you can use this furnace to refine medicine from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Duoduo froze, then quickly grabbed Mo Ming's arm: "Big brother, you're not joking, are you? This isn't an ordinary device!"
Mo Ming shook his head and smiled, then turned and patted the stove: "Duo Duo, this is no joke. From today onwards, this stove is your tool."
The shelter's future depends not only on weapons and manpower, but also on the essential supply of medicinal herbs. And you, you are our exceptionally talented healer!
“Brother…” Duoduo bit her lip, her eyes filled with emotion.
But soon, this feeling of gratitude was replaced by an even stronger excitement. She clenched her fists tightly and said, "That's great! Big brother, I definitely won't let you down! Once I have this furnace and the materials, I'll be able to forge something good for you in just a few days!"
"Then it's up to you." Mo Ming smiled with satisfaction and handed several boxes of medicinal herbs to her. "These raw materials were harvested along with the furnace. See how to process them, and see if there are any that can be planted. If so, go to the planting base and find a piece of land to plant them."
Then, Mo Ming took out a well-preserved old book and handed it to her. Duo Duo took it and opened it, and there was a recipe for a violent pill recorded in the book – "Berserk Pill".
"Berserk Pill?!"
Duoduo exclaimed in surprise, then immediately frowned: "Big brother, although this kind of pill is powerful, its backlash is really too abnormal."
Although users can unleash extremely strong combat power in a short period of time, it is highly likely to cause meridian tearing or even internal bleeding. Simply put, it is to gain temporary power at the cost of life and potential.
"You want to... refine it?"
Mo Ming waved his hand and said seriously, "Of course not. The current formula for the Berserk Pill is indeed extreme, so I want you to try and see if you can improve it to reduce the side effects on users."
The potency can be reduced, but the side effects must not affect the beast's fundamental nature. If this can be achieved, the Berserker Pill might become a strategic weapon, capable of turning the tide when necessary.
Duoduo lowered her head and turned the pages of the book. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Although I'm not sure yet, brother, you can trust me, so I will definitely try my best."
Although it's very difficult, with the Five Elements Furnace and such a complete set of ingredients, I'm actually quite confident!
Mo Ming nodded: "Don't rush, take your time. First, refine the basic pills and increase your inventory of recovery and detoxification drugs. You don't need to solve all the problems at once, just keep the pace."
"I'll build you a separate alchemy room then, and I'll have Manmeng help you move the furnace and materials there."
Duoduo nodded confidently, picked up the books and ran off, as if she had devoted all her energy to researching the idea of the elixir. For her, this was not only an opportunity to show her talent, but also a chance to help the entire shelter move to a higher level.
Watching Duoduo's departing figure, Mo Ming felt slightly relieved, but he knew that the pressure at this stage was far from over.
His past experiences taught him that battles are not just about killing and bloodshed; the proper allocation of resources can truly be the deciding factor in victory or defeat. The shelter now possesses a considerable amount of supplies, but compared to the many powerful enemies outside, it is still far from sufficient.
Mo Ming pondered to himself that he needed to build his own system in every aspect—potions, weapons, equipment—so that he could establish a deeper foundation for himself.
After dealing with all that, Mo Ming excitedly returned to the shelter, ready to check the spoils in the Asya space wristband.
"I'm really looking forward to it!"
