Chapter 198

: Trade, Thousand Mile Soul Chaser (Part one)
The laser scalpel precisely slipped through the crocodile’s cortex. Han easily removed the piece of the brain responsible for memory, and then closed the wound.
During the process of making fusion beasts, processing the brain tissues was the most difficult part. One had to maintain the beast’s biological characteristics, but also couldn’t have any instinctual memories, otherwise the fusion beast will target its owner.
Then it was the body reorganization process, installing whatever functional organs and limbs were necessary, depending on the fusion beast they wanted.
With this rare set of laser scalpels from prehistoric civilization, Han’s work had become a lot easier.
This set of laser scalpels was traded by Han with an enhanced version of the flying crocodile. He had seen Wuyun using the similar tools, but unfortunately Wuyun only had one set himself, and he refused to give it to him in any case, so Han had been using ionizing surgical tools.
Compared to the advanced laser surgery tool, the ionization tool was clumsy and inefficient. Now that Han also received a set of tools similar to Wuyun’s, his work efficiency also improved to a surprising level.
Not only the laser scalpel, but even the electrodes used to activate neurons were also replaced by a new model. Controlled by Yuan Yuan on the side, the electrode went deep into the nervous system, reconnecting the damaged nerves inside and then reactivating the whole body.
The freckled face girl came to Han’s tent and looked from the side. Towards the robot Yuan Yuan, she was not surprised at all. After all, she was a member of the dark net and had already gotten used to all sorts of illegal transactions. It was possible that she dealt in more distasteful things than Han.
This wasn’t her first time visiting Han anymore. Han already knew, this girl was called Xiao Man. She and that boy named Ting Bu were the two people responsible for the selection of genetic biology experts. Of course, these were just fake names, and they also didn’t like to be called representatives of the dark net, but rather dark protectors.
Han was very focused when working. Although he knew that Xiao Man was beside him, he didn’t plan to stop his work to talk to her.
After putting the finished work aside, Han began processing the last order. It was a customized miniature fusion beast, with a white star mouse as the main body, combined with the venomous fangs of star snakes, to create a frightening little thing.
When producing the 4 meters long flying crocodiles, Han was moving all over the place, and blood splashed on the operating table. At this moment, as if he was holding a sewing needle in his hand, Han sat beside the operation table with a pair of electron microscope glasses on and carved fine details onto the fusion beast.
Compared to the production of large-scale fusion beasts, small sized ones were more troublesome. Luckily Han’s laser scalpel could be adjusted. He tuned the knife to an extremely weak strength as he accurately opened up the star mouse’s head and processed it.
About two hours later, the custom-made little guy was complete. This was a terrifying little mouse with two venomous teeth and a snakeskin that could camouflage by changing colors, capable of quickly climbing trees and digging holes.
No one would expect a fatality to come from a bite of this mouse. Even without the fangs, the little mouse could also use its sharp claws to tear open the enemy’s chest, drill into the body and mess everything up.
Papapapa~
Xiao Man clapped and cheered,
Wonderful! You are the fastest and most accurate genetic biology expert I’ve ever seen. Now the fusion beasts you made are all selling like crazy, 90% of the people in the entire camp all wanted to buy one from you.

Han didn’t look back at Xiao Man. He continued to carefully check all the fusion beasts he made today, making sure that there was no problem. Then he took off his gloves, cleaned his tool, and then stored everything back into Lunar Mark.

Do you need me for anything?
Han looked up and asked.
Towards Han’s cold attitude, Xiao Man was already used to it. Han seemed to not like the dark net’s people, but that’s understandable, now that Han was like someone who was imprisoned. It’s difficult for him to become interested in prison guards like Xiao Man.

Yep, the soldiers’ selection is going into the final stage, the selection of genetic biology experts is as well. Tomorrow you have to battle.
Xiao Man said.
Han frowned,
You personally came here to tell me this, I’m afraid that things aren’t so simple. Is there a problem?

Xiao Man frowned,
Ting Bu doesn’t seem to like you and arranged a very powerful opponent for you. Supposedly we were recruiting more than one genetic biology expert. You and your opponent both are eligible to make the final list. But now he already submitted the battle orders, I can’t do anything about it anymore so I came here to tell you, be careful tomorrow.

Han nodded,
I see, thanks.

Then, he left the tent to go to the exchange center.
Xiao Man was a little depressed and whispered to herself,
Don’t worry, after becoming colleagues it will get better. Now he’s just a little angry.

There had always been a trading market on campus, and now the fusion beasts Han made have become one of the most popular goods. Han also didn’t like people coming into his tent everyday, so he chose the trading market.
The trading market was a tent itself. Walking in, its space was not smaller than any large markets. As the trials progressed into the second half, things got more and more intense. The people that wanted to survive were keen about coming here to trade for things they needed.
Soldiers needed drugs, buying them from pharmacists. Pharmacists needed raw materials, buying them from soldiers. Thus a small business cycle was formed.
Han’s appearance caused the market to boil.
: Trade, Thousand Mile Soul Chaser (Part Two)
Finding a vacant table, Han stood behind it and then a large group of people immediately surrounded it.

Sir, that flying crocodile I ordered yesterday.
A red face soldier asked as he rubbed his hands.

Finished, take it back for a try and come back if you have any questions.

Han placed that huge flying crocodile onto the table, and that red face soldier immediately placed it into his dimension ring, as if he was afraid that someone was going to rob it.

Thank you thank you! If you have anything that needs my help, remember to come find me!
That solider patted himself on the chest and said.
In this camp, the warriors were in fact the vulnerable group. Although they were all famous killers and mercenaries in the Milky Way, but now trapped in the camp, their battle equipment and tools needed experts like Han to supply and maintain. That’s why they were happy to offer Han their help.
Even after the transaction had been completed, they would occasionally go to Universe Valley and hunt a few star beasts to give to Han and completely not worry about compensation. They just hoped Han could remember them so they could come to Han for help down the road.

Is my star mouse complete?
It was an elder. He was not a soldier, but a material expert. In simple term, he’s a blacksmith that made weapons, and was also a character welcomed by warriors.

Finished. Be sure to be careful when using this little guy. Its very fast, and the claws and teeth all carry poison.
Han replied.
The blacksmith was also very happy to get this fusion star mouse. For this little guy, he paid Han with a pair of top-tier anti-gravity boots, which basically burned a hole in his inventory to make. Of course, if Han wanted to ask a favor from him, he would probably have to pay the same price.
Soon, Han took care of all the orders from yesterday, and then he said in a deep voice,
Today I’m still taking 5 orders. If you need want one, then just put out a payment.

Right after he finished, thousands of people started taking things out of their dimension ring. The table in front of Han was for the purpose of displaying items customers want to trade, and many people brought more than one.
Han walked along the long table, looked at the things on top, if he was interested he would pick one up and take a look.

What is this ball?
Han picked up a grey and golf-ball-looking thing with his hand and asked.

This is Thousand Mile Soul Chaser from an extinction domain, specifically used to track enemies or prey. Once you hit the target with this ball, this ball will light up, make noise and tightly chase after the prey until the end of time.


Oh.
Han nodded,
Seems interesting. Can this ball be destroyed?


Indestructible, not even nuclear bombs can destroy it.


Will it run out of energy?


There is a built-in miniature controllable fusion reactor, after it’s fueled, it can track the target for a thousand years.

Han received satisfying answers, he smiled, pulled out his notebook and said,
Very good, I will take this for exchange. What kind of fusion beast do you want?


Although a flying crocodile is a good amphibious fusion beast, but I want one that’s fast and can let me ride on.


Battlefield survival type fusion beast?


That’s right.


No problem. Do you have the raw materials?


Yep, I have a golden star leopard here. That soldier told me, this star leopard runs as fast as if it was flying, and one jump can travel a few hundred meters.


I’m afraid that he’s exaggerating, golden star leopards’ jumping ability is not too prominent, and the hundred-meter jump can only be done in environments without gravity. Also, the biggest weakness of the golden star leopard is its bright fur which also shines, so it’s not appropriate as a survival fusion beast.


Then what should I do? I traded a precious original encoder for this star beast.


Don’t worry, I will figure something out. How about this, I will do a bit more work on the skin, remove that layer of golden hair, and then load two pairs of star beast wings to make you a four-winged flying leopard, how’s that?


That would be awesome! What other compensation should I add on in your opinion?


No need, the wings were gifted to me by other soldiers.


Thank you! This time I owe you a favor. If you ever need anything in the future, come find me anytime. My name is Mountain Code, I’m an decoding expert.


Alright, deal!

Han quickly set down a deal with this decoding expert to make him a four-winged leopard for survival.

Look, Wind Speaker is really a good guy, unlike other genetic biologists desperately blackmailing for things they want.


Of course, Wind Speaker is not only very humble, his craft is also at master level, should be ranked in the top 5 of the genetic biology experts.


More than that. I think he’s in top 3.


Sigh, unfortunately, although Wind Speaker’s fusions beasts are really good, but I don’t have things he likes. It’s really strange, Wind Speaker only likes some strange and whimsical things, yesterday someone brought a horn with runes engraved on it, not even the buyer himself can explain what the horn is for, and Wind Speaker actually took it.


Indeed, things that are not strange or whimsical enough, Wind Speaker doesn’t even look at it. Look, this time it looks like he took in another strange-looking crystal ball.

The onlookers discussed, some were praising Han, more were complaining, and Han just ignored them all.
Very quickly, he selected the four rare gadgets he wanted. It was just one more deal to finalize and Han can go back home. Five orders every day, this was a rule Han set for himself. After all, other than making fusion beasts, Han still had to study and train.

What else should I choose?
Han scratched his chin and thought. Now that everyone knew that Han liked weird stuff, they all took out their weirdest items which made it a bit difficult for Han to choose.
Suddenly, just when Han’s feeling troubled about what to choose, his eyes lit up after seeing something that’s placed on a corner in the distance.

This little thing.
