Chapter 186 Using the Cosmic Divine Tree as a Rocking Chair and the Singularity Core as a Dog Bowl!
"Processing fee?"
Upon hearing these three words, Li Zhenguo showed no hesitation whatsoever; instead, a terrifying glint flashed in his eyes.
He nodded frantically, like a drowning man grabbing onto a giant ship falling from the sky.
"Yes! Absolutely! Sir, your willingness to help is already a great favor; how could we let you go to such trouble for nothing!"
"Just tell me! What do you want? As long as China has it, even if it's the stars in the sky, we'll risk our lives to pluck it down for you!"
He's genuinely scared now.
These "divine weapons" that they see as powerful enough to suppress the fate of the nation are, in Mr. Lin's eyes, a bunch of "dangerous items" that could ignite the world at any moment.
Ordinary people have no right to even try.
Being able to spend money to avert disaster and have my husband help me render these "ancestors" harmless is like a godsend!
Forget about processing fees, even if it meant taking Li Zhenguo's life right now, he would hand over the knife without hesitation!
Lin Fan looked at Li Zhenguo's "Name your price, I'll sell everything I own to pay" expression and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
It's just dealing with some trash, nothing to make a big deal out of it.
He rested his chin on his hand, as if deep in thought.
Money? He couldn't even be bothered to count that string of numbers.
Magical artifacts? Divine weapons? The things he uses to prop up table legs in his backyard are better than the things they consider national treasures.
He examined his recent life and realized that... something was indeed missing.
"Hmm..." Lin Fan cleared his throat, his expression turning serious. "Forget about the money; you can't afford anything that I'd like."
"As for treasures, those shiny trinkets from your country are best kept as family heirlooms."
Li Zhenguo's heart tightened, but he could only nod frantically.
Yes, in the eyes of someone like you, everything in the mortal world is nothing but dust.
"However, I always feel like something is missing from my life."
Lin Fan changed the subject.
"Okay, then you can find me some practical daily necessities."
"Daily necessities?"
Li Zhenguo was completely stunned, his brain unable to connect the word with the scene before him for a moment.
"Yes, daily necessities." Lin Fan nodded and held up the first finger.
"The rocking chair in my yard is old and it always makes noise when I lie on it, keeping me from sleeping. Go find me some sturdy wood, the kind that won't crack for a thousand years or rot for ten thousand. I'm planning to have my carpenter make a new one."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenguo and the experts on the helicopter were instantly overwhelmed.
Wood that won't crack for a thousand years and won't rot for ten thousand?!
Isn't that the legendary World Tree, which supports a universe and whose leaves are made of stars?!
Oh my God!
The gentleman wants to use the sacred wood of the universe to make a... rocking chair?!
What a magnificent achievement!
"Secondly," Lin Fan ignored their stunned expressions and held up a second finger, "it's getting hot, and I like to have barbecues in the yard. The machine-made charcoal sold in stores produces a lot of smoke and doesn't burn very well, making for a terrible experience."
"Go find me some good charcoal. It needs to burn for a long time, be smokeless, and preferably be able to be ignited by a single spark, so it can burn from dusk till dawn."
Long-lasting charcoal? Enough to burn all night?
One of the experts, a leading figure in the energy field, suddenly shuddered and almost slipped off his seat!
This description...
It sounds exactly like a "true fire stone of the sun" that has been compressed for hundreds of millions of years deep inside the earth!
That's a strategic energy source, enough to serve as the core fuel for an interstellar flagship!
Sir, he... wants to use this to... grill skewers?!
"Third," Lin Fan thought for a moment, then pointed to the silly dog in the corner of the yard, Cerberus, which was sticking out its tongue and wagging its three tails.
"See that? My dog eats like he's destroying the house. He's always digging at the food bowl. He's even dug several holes in the stainless steel bowl."
"Go find me the hardest stone, the kind that you absolutely can't break or bite. I'll have our stonemason carve a new dog bowl for it."
The hardest, absolutely unbreakable stone?
Li Zhenguo's throat was dry, and he could barely breathe.
He suddenly remembered a description of an ancient ruin recorded in a top-secret file.
It is said to be the only remaining core remnant after the Big Bang, with infinite density and infinite hardness, and has been named the "core of the cosmic singularity"!
Use...use that thing...
Carve out a dog food bowl?!
Li Zhenguo was completely numb.
He now finally understands a sentence deeply.
Even the pinnacle of ordinary people may not be able to reach the ground floor of Mr. [Name].
In Mr. Lin's world, the cosmic treasures they revered as divine objects were really... only fit to be used as rocking chairs, barbecue charcoal, and dog bowls...
"Is that...that's all, sir?" Li Zhenguo asked in an extremely hoarse voice. He felt his worldview being shattered piece by piece and then reassembled into a shape he couldn't understand.
"Okay, that's all for now." Lin Fan nodded. "I'll let you know if I think of anything else I need."
"As long as we can find everything, I'll take care of your mess."
"Yes! I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
Without a second thought, Li Zhenguo stood at attention and roared out this promise with all his might!
Let alone just finding something, Lin Fan would feel it was the greatest honor to tear apart an alien civilization with his bare hands!
"Alright, it's settled then." Lin Fan waved his hand, looking somewhat impatient. "Hurry up and bring those three 'treasures' over here. I don't feel comfortable leaving them with you."
Li Zhenguo felt as if he had been granted a pardon and immediately issued instructions via walkie-talkie.
Soon, a heavy transport helicopter carefully flew over and lowered three huge alloy boxes sealed by "space stabilizing anchors".
Lin Fan strolled over.
He didn't even glance at the extremely complex sealing device on the box, which shimmered with spatial ripples.
He simply reached out and slapped each of the three boxes once.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Three soft sounds, like dust being brushed off.
The "spatial anchor," powerful enough to seal off a small black hole, instantly dimmed, its runes disintegrated, and it turned into a pile of useless scrap metal.
Lin Fan opened the box and took out the "Philosopher's Stone", "Ice Jade Snow Ginseng" and "Deep Sea Sinking Silver".
Then, in front of Li Zhenguo and all the experts, he began to assign the correct uses for these "world-destroying dangerous goods".
He casually tossed the still glowing Philosopher's Stone to Ares, a burly red-haired man watching the spectacle.
"Hey, Redhead."
"From now on, you're in charge of sharpening all the knives in the yard."
"Use this stone. Remember, kitchen knives must be sharpened every day, until they're sharp enough to cut a hair in two!"
Ares frantically caught the heavy stone, completely dumbfounded.
Whetstone?
He, the mighty God of War of Olympus, the god who commands war and slaughter, has actually been reduced to a kitchen helper sharpening knives?!
He wanted to protest! He wanted to defend his dignity as a god!
But the moment he met Lin Fan's calm and indifferent gaze, all his words were instantly crushed in his throat.
Alright... sharpening the knife is better than scrubbing the toilet...
Then, Lin Fan handed the "Ice Jade Snow Ginseng" that exuded a bone-chilling cold aura to Fang Qingxue.
"Qingxue, take this."
"From now on, when you make soup, cut a small piece into the soup every day. Remember, it must be very thin, thinner than paper, otherwise we'll all freeze into ice sculptures."
Fang Qingxue received the divine medicine, powerful enough to cause bloodshed in any martial arts sect, with trembling hands. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Using this once-in-a-millennium wonder as a seasoning for soup?
Mr.'s life is just too... luxurious!
Finally, Lin Fan handed the dark blue "deep-sea silver" to Zhang Sanfeng, who was watching intently.
"Old Zhang, you are our institute's horticultural consultant."
"I think this lump of iron looks pretty shiny and sturdy. Do you think we can use it to build a trellis for the vegetable garden or make a fence?"
"So that silly dog won't keep running in and trampling my cucumber seedlings."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng's eyes instantly blazed with brilliant light!
He accepted the "deep-sea silver" with utmost respect, his fingers gently tracing the cool yet smooth surface of the metal.
He could clearly sense that this piece of divine metal contained a unique property that perfectly conducted and coordinated the energy of all things!
Use it to make a fence?
What a waste! It's an absolute waste!
An incredibly bold, even insane, idea instantly surged into his mind.
He raised his head, looking at Lin Fan, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of wisdom and fervor.
"Sir, I have a preliminary idea."
"If this divine metal is used as the base of the array, a 'Great Spirit Gathering Array' can be set up around the vegetable garden..."
"Perhaps this sacred land could be transformed into a blessed paradise, where spiritual energy would circulate naturally, endlessly regenerating!"
