Chapter 44: Chapter 44: (Added to ask for follow-up readership!) Shen Hao is the trend!
“`
If we really wanted to test it, there could be many ways to do so. Right now, not only Shen Hao was waiting in anticipation, everyone who knew about this was eagerly awaiting the outcome!
Inside the Intelligent Group, they even began discussing it quickly and excitedly.
“One hundred points a piece, and there’s a limit on how many times it can be used, this is too expensive!”
“If it’s useful, we must quickly master the method for mass production!”
“There’s a Chosen One with the Talent ‘Taoist’? And it’s a Blue Talent, we can let him try it out!”
“Test whether Blood Demon’s blood can be detected. If so, we can narrow down the range and save on Spirit Talismans by using mixed blood screening!”
“The key is to upgrade Team Leader Shen’s Store Level! The method to win the war is in the mall!”
“…”
Before this, the Intelligent Group had already made a rough guess about the White Level 4 Mall, believing that it might contain equipment or technology that could further counter the Blood Demons. After all, if it weren’t for Shen Hao, just eliminating them would require a Chosen One to kill three to four thousand Blood Demons to achieve a promotion.
To accumulate such a number of combat achievements in normal battles would take a considerable time, even for those with Blue Talents.
If the Level 4 Mall obtained through such efforts turned out to be ordinary, it would be out of proportion with the difficulty of promotion, and the Chosen One Mall would seem more like false hope.
After all, Shen Hao’s emergence was entirely a stroke of luck against the odds.
More than one person was guessing that Shen Hao’s Talent wasn’t just at the Purple Epic level. That kind of power that transcends levels and disregards numbers was truly shocking!
The time needed for testing wasn’t long. Ten Spirit Testing Talismans were precisely used in various experiments.
Whether it was detecting Blood Demons in battle, testing the blood of Blood Demons, or using mixed screening to test everyone’s blood….
The answer exhilarated everyone.
“It works!” Dong Gong quickly reported back to Shen Hao, “Moreover, the lower the concentration of the substance being tested, the less it consumes. Direct detection of a Blood Demon individual can only be used once, but if it’s detecting a mix of fifty people’s blood, it can be used up to twenty times effectively. Unfortunately, a mix of a hundred people’s blood can no longer be detected, it seems like the Extraordinary characteristics are below the minimum detection range.”
“Have you reported this?” Shen Hao was equally happy, but quickly got to the point.
“It has been reported, but if we want to carry out this kind of detection nationwide, even just preliminary screenings, the number of Spirit Talismans needed would be incredibly large,” Dong Gong quickly explained. “Before we master the method for large-scale production, we can only give priority to the screening of management groups and key units, especially military units. These are the organizations where infiltration by the Blood Demons must be prevented to the greatest extent possible.”
“Alright, since it’s useful, I’ll exchange for a batch right away for emergency use,” Shen Hao agreed.
After the initial anticipation, he had realized that unless they could master the mass production of these talismans, relying solely on exchanges made it very difficult to carry out a comprehensive selection.
But being able to provide them to key organizations already made a tremendous difference.
Just as Dong Gong had said, some institutions absolutely must not be compromised.
“Additionally, there’s been another suggestion,” Dong Gong heaved a slight sigh of relief, but continued, “Some people recommend providing some of the Spirit Testing Paper to key leadership groups in other countries as a means of testing because if their order collapses and they face comprehensive defeat, we would be under tremendous pressure.”
“….”
Upon hearing this, Shen Hao’s brows furrowed.
He understood that Dong Gong was correct; his concern wasn’t whether or not to give, but about how to ensure these precious talismans were used in the right places.
“`
Indeed, once the Blood Demons detected by the Sensing Talismans he exchanged were killed, he would also receive points feedback.
This further confirmed that the rule of points feedback was very likely operating according to his “Causality” conjecture.
In such circumstances, overseas was a Blue Sea for acquiring points.
However, while he could still exert a certain supervisory effect domestically with his current strength and irreplaceable role, control over international situations could easily become out of reach.
Shen Hao was not unwilling to trust those people, but he also did not wish to test human nature.
If the Sensing Talismans were to appear in large quantities and at high prices on the market, what would be the point?
“I can give them, but not without a price,” Shen Hao finally said in a deep voice, “I need to gather their top scientists to participate in the related research of the Mall’s technology. I must have a share in the ownership and management rights of the research institute. Moreover, every Sensing Talisman needs reliable supervision; every use must be recorded to ensure they are used where they should be. If I ever find out there has been deceit, I will never trust them again, nor will I provide any further help!”
Dong Gong’s breath hitched, and even through the communication, he seemed to feel the overwhelming pressure at that moment!
It was not Dominator pressure.
But since the moment Shen Hao accomplished the feat of instantly killing more than fifteen hundred Blood Demons by himself during the day, many already realized that the upper limit of the Chosen One’s power was unfathomable!
And from that moment, Shen Hao had become the one standing at the pinnacle of all Chosen Ones, the symbol representing the strongest force of the Chosen Ones—and he had already deeply ingrained himself in the hearts of the people!
Especially since he was not alone, nor was he simply a “Superhero”!
He was rational, powerful, with the ability and wisdom to establish a collective of interests, expand influence, and seize power!
In this crisis threatening countless lives, as long as he continued to grow stronger, continued to make saving the world, saving civilization his mission, and kept bringing benefits and a sense of security to others, more and more people would rally around him!
He was still somewhat young, but already a “Major Trend” that could be seen clearly!
Even Dong Gong himself was also one of those pursuing this Major Trend, wasn’t he?
“I will convey your conditions and attitude,” Dong Gong said respectfully.
Nowadays, no matter from which aspect, Shen Hao’s voice could no longer be ignored by anyone.
After ending the communication, Shen Hao directly exchanged for two thousand Sensing Talismans.
Looking at the points that had suddenly decreased by almost half, he couldn’t help but feel the importance of points.
For his personal strength enhancement, he hardly needed many.
But the consumption elsewhere was boundless.
Not only Sensing Talismans, but the weaponry and equipment in the White Level 4 could easily allow soldiers to take on seven or eight Blood Demons without much problem.
Moreover, the Store Level was also very important. As effective as Sensing Talismans are in detecting Blood Demons, the cost is too great, and the return on investment is too low. The research that could be undertaken was likely to be ineffective.
After all, it’s a system that humans had not encountered before.
“Indeed, I need to upgrade the Mall as soon as possible,” Shen Hao thought to himself.
