The massive bomb re-engineered by the Combat Unit of the "Dragon Slayer Missile" was a new product custom-ordered by the Blue Star United Defense Committee from its original producer, Louis Industries. They removed the unnecessary propulsion system and installed a new detonation mechanism that could be timed or remotely controlled. It was still the original factory product and was just as safe and powerful as before. The temporary reinforcements from the ground gave the 13th Reconnaissance Squad a much-needed confidence boost. In addition to their scouting duties, they were now prepared to take on any mutants they might encounter again. Therefore, Blake, the captain of the squad, did not hesitate to agree to the arrangement. The leader of the reinforcements soon took notice of the Little Bird maintaining the Light-based Spells to illuminate the squad. "Huh? A Pure Light Sparrow, that's quite rare!" Though Pure Light Sparrows are classified as Magical Beasts, not all of them can cast Light Series magic; most are indistinguishable from ordinary birds. Even those that can often only use the Light Healing Technique. In comparison to Illumination Techniques, Healing Spells are evidently more practical. After all, when the night falls and the birds return to their nests, lighting up a Light Orb is not just unnecessary but completely superflous. It would instead likely cause panic among their kind. "Is that so? There seem to be quite a lot of Pure Light Sparrows." Chen Fei had checked an encyclopedia, and Pure Light Sparrows were breeding in large numbers on Cangqiong Star, not unlike pigeons on Blue Star. Sometimes they were even hunted as prey and turned into roasted bird skewers that would make even the crafty Old Piao drool. "What I mean is, it's rare for one to be able to use Light-based Spells beyond the Light Healing Technique. It seems your Little Pure Light Sparrow hasn't signed a contract yet. Why not sell it to me? Name your price." The leader of the reinforcements was quite interested in the Little Bird capable of casting the Illumination Technique, especially since it had not yet been contracted by anyone. Acquiring it as a lamp seemed like an excellent idea. "Sorry, Xiao Jiu is not for sale!" Chen Fei immediately and unequivocally declined. To him, the Little Bird was beyond price and could not simply be sold off for any amount. "Hey, kid, it's just a Pure Light Sparrow. Sell it to Mr. Kanje; a favor like that can't be measured in money." Someone immediately tried to enlighten this clueless rookie. "Mr. Kanje is a Thunder Mage God. Forget selling, just give it away. That favor would be enormous." "This is an opportunity! You must seize it." "It's just a Pure Light Sparrow. Later I'll directly give you several of them. Not just ten, but even a hundred would be fine!" The leader of the reinforcements was a Thunder Series Mage of the First Rank, not someone just anyone could approach casually. It was hard to tell if those chiming in were genuinely offering advice or trying to curry favor with the leader of the reinforcements. As always protective, Hanna Gagel stepped in front of Chen Fei and angrily addressed the chattering crowd: "Hey, hey, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to force a purchase?" She didn't care about any Mage God or Law Honors; even those figures needed to eat. Instead of pleasing the powerful, she believed it was more about bowing to capital. Hanna Gagel was capital herself; why would she need to look to others for approval? "Sorry! Xiao Jiu is not for sale!" Standing behind Manager Hanna, Chen Fei smiled and shook his head. His face wore a smile, but inside he was cursing! Did these people have any idea how much effort he had invested in Xiao Jiu? Could that be quantified with money? "You all don't have to..." A Pure Light Sparrow of Second Rank, Human Order is indeed rarely seen, even unheard of. But at its core, it's still a Light-element Magical Beast; at Low Rank, and even at Intermediate Rank, its combat power is weak. Only Healing Spells are meaningful, and other Light-based Spells have almost no offensiveness. Light-element Magical Beasts will only be taken seriously once they achieve Eighth Rank, Human Order or higher. High Rank Light-based Spells indeed have considerable power; the higher the rank, the stronger the combat power of Light. Once it reaches the Heavenly Order and touches upon the rules, Light will truly become one of the most formidable forces among all ranks and will easily crush others, even the so-called strongest Space Series, which could suffer if they're not careful. After all, Light's exclusivity is unparalleled. "Xiao Jiu, you have to work hard, learn a few more spells!" Chen Fei fully understood the sudden disapproval of the reinforcement leader. But Xiao Jiu is still a child! Once it masters a few more Light-based Spells, no one will dare to belittle it. "We can't take this bird, Mr. Kanje!" The others finally reacted as well. Who would have thought that the Pure Light Sparrow, upon reaching the Second Rank, Human Order, would actually learn this first. "I'm truly sorry for the disturbance, young man." Kanje, the reinforcement leader, didn't seem angry at all. He wiped his left hand over his right fingers and produced a small test tube bottle out of nowhere, handing it over and saying, "This... consider this a greeting gift!" Goodness me! There's even a gift in return! No matter what was in the test tube, if it came from a Mage's hands, it was definitely something valuable. "I can't accept this," Chen Fei quickly waved his hands, feeling unworthy to receive something from someone he was meeting for the first time, with whom he had no personal relationship. "It's good, the Rookie can use it." However, Manager Hanna reached out to take it, examining the item in her hands and asking, "What kind of magic potion is this?" The slender bottle came from a mage, and the mysterious liquid inside was likely from a Magic Medicine from Cangqiong Star. Due to the different rules of heaven and earth, and the far less active elemental atmosphere, Blue Star locally produced nothing but bottles and stoppers and relied entirely on cross-border trade for these miraculous potions. Kanje, the Thunder Mage God and leader of the reinforcements, still in a good mood, explained, "This is a Psychic Power Potion of Third Rank, Human Order, something I had left over from before but no longer of use to me." As a Mage of the First Rank, Earth Order, a Human Order potion naturally wouldn't be of much help to him. In his Space System Alchemy Storage Device, he had several potions like this, which are quite appropriate as greeting gifts for the younger generation. Psychic Power Potion! Many people inwardly shouted, don't give it to me! Most of those present were supernatural power users below Class B, Human Order spellcasters, and War Professionals. The Psychic Power Potion was almost suitable for all ability users. Boosting psychic power was obviously beneficial in controlling one's abilities, and no one would despise having stronger spirit. "Take it! This will be useful to you, drink it now if you can!" The Psychic Power Potion was also useful to Class C supernatural power users. Hanna Gagel swallowed, forcefully suppressing her desire, shoved the test tube bottle with the potion into Chen Fei's hands, and then quickly turned her head away to stop looking. -
