Qin Feng fulfilled his promise to those people; he did not kill them, but he did not guarantee their protection when attacked by monsters.
Looking at the "Sky-Round-Square Chessboard" that had regained its brilliance, Qin Feng bit his finger and dripped a drop of his blood onto it. Instantly, a peculiar telepathic connection was established between him and the chessboard.
At the same time, his understanding of the chessboard deepened.
The chessboard would be usable again in 15 days; this information came from the chessboard itself, which was quite miraculous.
Qin Feng glanced at the pile of colorful treasures on the ground, all of which had been opened from treasure chests by Gui Tianya and others. Some items were useful to him, while others were not of much use, but since they were all treasures, he did not intend to waste them.
He began to select them carefully. Some weapons were very sharp and could increase his combat power when equipped. For these pieces of equipment, he directly assigned them to his Red Alert legion.
He also had some defensive items and equipment, which he had the Red Alert legion wear, further enhancing his subordinates' attack and defense.
The remaining useless treasures were also collected by the Red Alert soldiers under his command.
The battle was over, and it was time to return to their fortress and plan for the future. Moreover, he still had many treasure chests in his inventory waiting to be opened, which would yield many treasures. He also needed to reallocate them.
Thus, he called Ye Shen, who was shopping, and they got into the off-road vehicle and returned to their fortress.
Upon arriving at the fortress, Qin Feng proceeded to open the various treasure chests in his inventory one by one. The items from the golden treasure chests were extraordinary and powerful.
Some were elixirs that could enhance physique and increase his combat power, which were what he desired most. There were also some weapons and equipment that, when worn, could increase his combat power by over 100 points. He directly had the Red Alert legion soldiers wear them, making his subordinates more formidable.
He no longer needed to wear such equipment because when facing problems, he did not need to act himself; the combat power of his subordinates was his overall combat power.
Treasure chests were opened one after another. He distributed the equipment to his subordinates, keeping only the elixirs to enhance his own strength.
Not long after, when he opened a silver treasure chest, he found an unexpected item: a storage ring!
This was an essential treasure for storing items. He now had many tools and weapons that he didn't need but had no place to store them.
These items could be useful in the future, and it would be a shame to discard them now, as they were all treasures obtained from treasure chests.
With the storage ring, things became much more convenient. More importantly, he could also conveniently store the high-tech manufacturing furnace he had purchased from the shop. This was an essential item for replicating equipment and was quite expensive. Even though he now had hundreds of thousands of money, he was unwilling to spend tens of thousands more to buy it.
Doing so would be too wasteful.
This item was very heavy and could not be carried around. If he had to buy a manufacturing furnace every time he went somewhere, even with mountains of gold, he would eventually run out. It was better to save where possible. With this storage ring, carrying it would be much easier.
According to the description of the storage ring, Qin Feng attempted to place items into it.
He wore the ring on his hand and approached an item. He focused his attention on the storage ring, and instantly, a 1000-square-meter blank space appeared in his mind. The item that the storage ring touched instantly moved into this blank area.
In reality, the item had disappeared. Within the space of the storage ring, he could sense the existence of the item. When he focused his attention on the space within the storage ring, his consciousness became like an invisible giant hand that could freely retrieve items from it. He tried doing so, and indeed, under the control of his consciousness, the item reappeared in reality, which was truly magical.
Qin Feng was very satisfied with the storage ring.
He then opened all the remaining treasure chests, distributed the weapons and equipment to his Red Alert legion subordinates, and threw all the useless items into the storage ring. Qin Feng calculated that he had over 1000 useless pieces of equipment in his storage ring, and the combat power of his Red Alert legion had greatly increased with the bonuses from various treasures.
Now, his Red Alert legion not only had mortars equipped with high-tech projectile accelerators but also various offensive treasures and items. Many of his close-combat Red Alert soldiers possessed terrifying combat power. If they faced Commander-level monsters, they could even fight them one-on-one.
His Red Alert legion not only had long-range rocket artillery capabilities but also close-combat offensive capabilities. With the value of these treasures, his attack methods became more diverse, and his defensive capabilities also greatly improved.
This monster encirclement operation had yielded him rich rewards. Looking at his greatly strengthened Red Alert legion, Qin Feng's confidence soared. However, it was also time for him to elevate his own strength.
Dozens of various elixirs were laid out before him.
From the lowest-grade Battle Power Pills, which could increase combat power by 10 points and enhance all attributes after consumption, to Yuan Cultivation Pills, which increased all attributes and combat power by 50, he had them all.
Thus, Qin Feng began to consume the Battle Power Pills from the lowest grade. As the first Battle Power Pill entered his stomach, a warm current surged within him.
Subsequently, he felt his body filled with power. When he opened his attribute panel, he indeed saw that his combat power had increased by 10 points, and all his attributes had also improved.
Moreover, consuming the Battle Power Pills this time did not cause him the intense pain he experienced the first time he consumed the Yuan Cultivation Pill, which almost killed him. His physique had now greatly improved, and he could consume these low-grade Battle Power Pills as he pleased, with absolutely no side effects.
Therefore, Qin Feng continued to pop the Battle Power Pills into his mouth one by one, consuming them all. After finishing the Battle Power Pills, he began to consume the Yuan Cultivation Pills. He was unsure if he could withstand the immense energy, as the psychological trauma from consuming the Yuan Cultivation Pill for the first time still lingered. If he couldn't resist it, he might die from the medicinal impact.
Therefore, he cautiously divided the Yuan Cultivation Pill into two halves and consumed half first to test his condition.
When he found that his attributes had improved and his body had no side effects, he boldly consumed the other half.
Subsequently, he consumed the other Yuan Cultivation Pill whole. No side effects occurred. His physique had now greatly improved, and the medicinal effects of the Yuan Cultivation Pill were no longer effective against him. Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction.
