Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1005 - 400 Military Arms Deal

Changhe Base still has a large number of electronic devices in use, and if they were to fully paralyze, it would cause communication disruptions, traffic to grind to a halt, powered armor to become inoperative, and weapon equipment to rely solely on manual operation... This would be a fatal blow to Changhe Base.

"Is there really no way to avoid this?"

Wang Tao asked, frowning.

He also thought of mechanical bodies, which weren't purely mechanical—they also had electronic components... This had been something that could not only allow disabled individuals to regain normalcy but significantly enhance human combat abilities, and as such, had garnered a lot of attention. But if they were to become unusable in the future, that too would be a blow...

"I don't know for the moment..." Duan Xuchang shook his head, then added with some uncertainty, "The base is heavily researching Crystal Energy Technology and biotechnology, maybe that could solve the problem?"

"Maybe..."

Technology wasn't something that could make breakthroughs in a short time, and given the pace at which this crisis was approaching, it was uncertain whether the problem could be resolved before the crisis struck. One could only hope.

Wang Tao shook his head and decided not to dwell on it any further.

He wasn't capable of changing the situation and could only look to researchers like Qu Shilin.

Wang Tao then flipped through the small booklet prepared by the Legion and suddenly said:

"Captain Duan, is it possible for me to buy these things?"

"Of course, you can't—" Duan Xuchang began to shake his head instinctively, but then seemed to recall something and frowned slightly, "Are you talking about purchasing as a consultant for the Sixth Army Corps? That seems... possible?"

Duan Xuchang wasn't sure either since the rules were set by the higher-ups of these major Legions, who had the final say.

"How about I ask for you?"

Duan Xuchang offered.

"Sure, I'll also ask Commander Cheng."

Wang Tao found Cheng Yiyi, and since he was using the reputation of the Sixth Army Corps to make the purchase, naturally he had to speak with Cheng Yiyi as well.

When Cheng Yiyi heard what Wang Tao wanted, she immediately nodded.

"You're our Sixth Army Corps' legitimately hired consultant, there's no issue at all. As long as they sell, you can buy under the name of the Sixth Army Corps; of course, you'll have to use your own money. But if you buy some tanks and cannons, do you have a place to put them? After all, they need maintenance..."

"As long as it's within the rules, it's fine. As for where to park them—I'm just rather curious, thought I'd buy a few to play with, they wouldn't take up much space, so how about keeping them at our Legion's base? For maintenance and such, I'll pay, you just help me out..."

Wang Tao said with a smile.

"That's actually no problem; our Legion's territory is quite vast," Cheng Yiyi replied, nodding immediately.

So, the matter was thus pleasantly decided.

Cheng Yiyi then went with Wang Tao to the other Five Major Legions' area. Duan Xuchang was also there waiting for him with three people.

The first person was a middle-aged man wearing a military uniform, of slim build, wearing glasses, and looking gentle and refined.

This man reached out his hand with a smile.

"Consultant Wang, hello, I'm Chief Tian from the First Legion," he said.

"Chief Tian, hello!"

Wang Tao smiled and shook hands with him.

This commander of the First Legion wasn't quite what he had expected, but appearances can be deceiving—Tian Xuesong was a bonafide Awakener.

After exchanging pleasantries briefly, Wang Tao turned his attention to the second military-clad middle-aged man. This one's frame was much more robust, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a square face... fully fitting Wang Tao's stereotype of a military man.

"Hello, my name is Du Longfei, the commander of the Second Legion," he introduced himself.

"Chief Du, hello!"

Wang Tao exchanged a few polite words with him too.

This Du Longfei seemed like a tough guy of few words, and he wasn't an Awakener, naturally because he didn't have Hidden Attributes.

As for the third person, it was Hou Zhiyuan, a familiar face Wang Tao had met before, the commander of the Third Legion. It had been some time since they last met, and Hou Zhiyuan was still at the Third Order Peak... In such a long time, Hou Zhiyuan hadn't made any progress!

Wang Tao also shook hands with him, and Hou Zhiyuan said with a smile:

"Consultant Wang, I hear you want to buy some big toys? Buy mine, I have plenty!"

"Huh? How come you're snatching business? We've got to have an order of precedence! It's clear I was here first!"

Tian Xuesong immediately expressed his displeasure, though he wasn't truly upset but just bickering as usual. However, Wang Tao was still somewhat surprised by the fact that they were not only not opposed to selling him their Weapon Equipment but actually seemed eager for him to buy.

"Hey! What's all this about order? Isn't it Consultant Wang's own decision on what to buy? Let me explain things to Consultant Wang!"

Hou Zhiyuan pushed Tian Xuesong aside and led Wang Tao further in.

Tian Xuesong and Du Longfei followed with a bit of speechlessness.

"Chief Hou, aren't you being a bit too enthusiastic!"

Wang Tao felt their eagerness was a bit off, and he instinctively glanced at Cheng Yiyi.

Hou Zhiyuan noticed Wang Tao's subtle movement and sighed helplessly:

"I won't hide it from you, we just want to sell some items; we're a bit strapped for cash lately! But we can't just sell our stuff to anyone... We thought we'd sell it to Little Cheng, but then she stopped buying... If you're interested, that's perfect, I'll give you a discount!"

The Weapon Equipment of the Six Major Legions was allowed to circulate only amongst themselves and couldn't be sold to anyone else. Among them, it was generally the First, Second, and Third Legions that sold items due to their more substantial assets.
