If it were an ordinary person, facing such highly suspicious consumer traps, they would hesitate.

But Tong Shan was no ordinary person.

"You're the craftsman, you call the shots."

Once said, there was no going back.

At the very least, Tong Shan didn't care about such minuscule consumption; soon, he drafted a lengthy list, additionally requesting the configuration and general information of the team members.

Tong Shan didn't say anything; Ji Xue held the list with twitching eyes—what kind of maintenance is this? Are you charging by the kilo for Mountain Copper?

And what about these items with names I've never heard but whose prices are outrageously high when I searched for them? What are they?

Why are there so many?

Tong Shan, you weren't scammed, were you?

While she was sighing here, Tong Shan remained as calm as ever.

Then, less than two hours had passed, and she hadn't even finished watching the variety show she had saved when the workshop door opened again.

It was so fast she could hardly react.

She stared in disbelief.

Damn, lad, you aren't just going through the motions, are you?

"Sorry, Melting Furnace was a bit busy, had to wait in line for a while, otherwise it would have been even earlier."

Ji Jue lifted the towel around his neck to wipe the sweat, waved, and again a cart full of items emerged. Unlike the shoddy maintenance Ji Xue had imagined, everything was as clean as new... even seemingly cleaner than when they had first received them.

She picked up two items, curious, "Were these cleaned?"

"It's quite water-intensive now, so I just burned them once with fire, and used an air gun for the nooks and crannies, also saves you the trouble of washing them again," Ji Jue rummaged through the cart and directly found a piece of protective clothing, "This one's yours."

Ji Xue felt the weight—it was much lighter than the original.

Then, another piece was thrown over?

Both pieces featured numerous quick-release buckles, but one could faintly discern that they were a set.

"I modified it a bit for you, a two-piece set."

Ji Jue leaned on the door, smiling slightly, "You're the speedy type, right? Normally, you'd wear both sets, but in an emergency, you can ditch the outer layer. The inner piece has been lightened and reinforced in certain areas, enough to isolate Erosion.

Both suites have been modified for you, you can try them out."

"Really?"

Ji Xue, shocked and skeptical, put on the inner layer and felt it was much lighter than usual and fitted ergonomically, completely unrestricted in movement.

After a brief warm-up, a loud bang was heard.

She had already disappeared from the spot, only dust stirring up and then being dispersed by the pressure of the impact, as she returned.

After personally experiencing the convenience of the custom version, her face brightened with joy, patting Ji Jue's shoulder heavily, "Not bad, does everyone have this?"

"No, only you."

Ji Jue flipped through the suits below, picked one up, and tossed it to Tong Shan, "Try this."

Unlike Ji Xue's light suit, Tong Shan's was now clad in armor that was exaggeratedly heavier than the original by many times!

Not only were the outer fabrics infused with metal threads, but essential areas were also equipped with armor-like metal protection.

The level of protection had more than doubled, but the trade-off was... the weight had reached over fifty pounds.

However, in Tong Shan's hands, it felt as light as a feather.

It unfolded in midair.

Under the control of invisible telekinesis, layer upon layer wrapped around him, and after putting on a thickened gas mask, every part of his body was covered, not a spot exposed.

Ji Jue waved his finger, and immediately, Mercury blades slashed out, a series of overlapping sword lights mixed with many blunt impacts.

But inside, Tong Shan hardly felt any recoil.

There was even a layer of liquid buffer inserted between the outer and inner layers of the protective suit, incredibly thin, yet possessing non-Newtonian fluid properties, hardening itself instantly upon impact, dispersing the force.

It was like being in a fortress.

After all, it was the Heavenly Origin System.

Specialized in manipulating the surrounding environment and objects, its defensive capabilities couldn't be said to be nonexistent, but it also couldn't compare to the iron-clad Ruins.

Too easy a target for White Deer!

You should know, though Tian Yuan counters White Deer, it is also countered by White Deer.

If White Deer gets close, it might just slice and slice and slice... turning into a plate of evenly sliced hotpot mutton.

In scenarios where you can't suppress the opponent or unexpectedly face a sudden attack, the outcome could be extremely brutal.

In such situations, the thicker the armor, the better.

As for the mere weight... with Tong Shan's capability, it didn't bother him in the least. He could bear it for a month without feeling much.

Then came the maintenance of various scrapped items, all restored to factory condition, and after secondary reinforcement, the quality and durability were further improved.

And the final highlight was naturally the flagpole that Ji Jue tossed over.

As usual.

Identical.

Just as if it had been simply wiped down, with no changes at all.

"Try it?" Ji Jue asked.

The moment Tong Shan nodded, he looked up and whistled.

Suddenly, the quiet bull next to him shuddered, the machine gun rose, and then, unadulterated heavy firepower erupted at that moment, booming amid a barrage of gunfire, locking down Tong Shan.

A storm of bullets surged like a tide!
