I Have A Game Clone

121 Precious Information

Upon hearing Yun Moxiang’s words, Ning Shi did not have much of a response.

He said indifferently, “S-level spiritual crystals are the country’s resources, and the treasures in the country’s secret vault belong to everyone. The merit point system was established for fairness. If someone has accumulated 5000 merit points, it’s only natural for them to exchange for S-level spiritual crystals.”

As Ning Shi’s liaison officer, Yun Moxiang’s future as an official was closely related to Ning Shi. More than anyone else, she wanted Ning Shi to become stronger.

Seeing that Ning Shi was so calm, she was a little anxious and inadvertently raised her voice.

!!

“Consultant Ning, times have changed. A month ago, there were still more than 20 S-level spiritual crystals in the vault. Perhaps they were stimulated by the insect disaster that destroyed two countries in a row, or perhaps they were influenced by the hot-blooded atmosphere of the National Awakeners’ Competition, but during this period, many Tier 9 awakeners have exhausted their merit points and resources to exchange for S-level spiritual crystals.”

Ning Shi was not surprised. As long as a Tier 9 awakener served the country, be it by arresting criminals within the country, maintaining stability, or resisting insect disasters at the border, they could earn a large number of merit points.

Their merit points could be exchanged for S-level spiritual crystals.

“Did any of these Tier 9 awakeners successfully break through to the overlord realm after exchanging S-level spiritual crystals?” Ning Shi asked, concerned.

Having been steered off topic by Ning Shi, Yun Moxiang’s mouth twitched helplessly as she replied in a low voice, “A total of 13 Tier 9 awakeners took S-level spiritual crystals. Fortunately, one of them successfully advanced and became the seventh overlord of our country.”

Hearing this good news, Ning Shi was also very excited. With every new overlord, the country’s strength would increase.

Yun Moxiang finished the Sprite in one gulp and continued, “This big shot’s name is Yi Guoqing, and he’s Yi Shengjia’s father. Just like Yi Shengjia, he’s also an enabling-type awakener.”

She introduced, “Yi Guoqing was originally the first advisor of the Special Affairs Bureau. After becoming an overlord, the country had temporarily arranged a new position for him. He was the president of the National Awakeners’ Competition Association, responsible for the overall management of the three major competitions: the National Awakeners’ Competition, the Campus Competition, and the World Competition.”

She continued, “The enabling-type ability that President Yi Guoqing possesses is as rare as the transformation-type and summoner-type abilities. In the world, only the Kingdom of Mies has an enabling-type overlord. It’s said that, after President Yi Guoqing became an overlord, his cultivation improved rapidly due to very few overlords sharing the same ability as him.”

After introducing Yi Guoqing, Yun Moxiang returned to discussing the previous topic.

“There are only 11 S-level spiritual crystals left in the country’s secret vault. In order to maintain a certain amount of supply, the government has increased the search and mining of spiritual crystals in the entire region in the hope of collecting more S-level ones. On the other hand, they have also announced a policy.

When the number of S-level spiritual crystals drops to 10, the merit points required to exchange for them will double, and each S-level spiritual crystal will cost 10000 merit points.

If new S-level spiritual crystals are added to the vault, the officials may restore the price to 5000 points, but no one knows whether there will be new spiritual crystals added.”

Yun Moxiang looked at Ning Shi and said in a serious tone, “Currently, there’s only one S-level spiritual crystal worth 5000 points left. Yi Shengjia used to serve in the southwest world boundary and performed outstandingly in many battles against the insects, so he has accumulated a lot of merit points. In addition to winning the National Awakeners’ Competition this time, he has 4700 merit points accumulated and will soon gather 5000 merit points. It’s very likely that he’ll be the one to exchange for this S-level spiritual crystal.”

Ning Shi was not concerned with Yi Shengjia, but instead asked, “What’s the point of the officials raising the price like this? This isn’t fair to the people who come after. Besides, the resources piled up in the vault are all useless unless they are converted into combat power as soon as possible.”

Yun Moxiang crossed her legs and said, “For the sake of motivation. There must always be S-level spiritual crystals in the vault. If all the crystals were exchanged, why would a Tier 9 awakener still work for the country? Even though the awakeners might have some form of patriotism, the officials also had to consider material incentives for them. Although the price of S-level spiritual crystals would double, at least there is a goal for them to work towards, right?”

She added, “Not only did the government raise the price this time, but they also strictly prohibited the exchange and gifting of merit points. By law, everyone has to earn their own merit points to purchase S-level spiritual crystals.”

Ning Shi understood that the government needed S-level spiritual crystals as a strategic resource to better unite all forces.

As for the price, it would certainly be impacted by supply and demand.

In all fairness, each generation basically competed among themselves. After the National Awakening, the number of awakeners increased gradually. If the production of S-level spiritual crystals couldn’t keep up, the price would inevitably become more and more expensive.

Perhaps in a few years, the price of S-level spiritual crystals would be 10 times more expensive than it was now.

When Ning Shi considered this, he felt that he should get at least two S-level spiritual crystals as soon as possible.

He needed one for the advancement of his transformation-type ability and one for his strength-type ability.

He took out his phone and handed it to Yun Moxiang, saying, “I’ve been in the insect world for more than a month. These are the recordings I gathered, which contain crucial information about the insect and beast disasters.”

On the phone, there was a recording of the aerial view of the terrain of the insect world that Ning Shi had recorded after flying for a day and a night.

There was also information about the social structure of the war insect tribe, the reproduction process of their bases, and scenes of life-or-death battle between the war insects and the azure insects.

There were even images of 10000-meter-tall giant beasts and giant birds wreaking havoc across the land.

These were all recorded by the game system.

Of course, Ning Shi still kept some things to himself. He didn’t mention anything about the war insect’s brainwave network for the time being.

The war insect commander’s gene fragment contained all the information about the insect world. The territory near the three world boundaries of the Yunmeng Kingdom was the territory of the king-tier spirit devouring insects.

Ning Shi didn’t hide anything about the spirit devouring insects ruling over other insect tribes as well as their characteristics. This information was intercepted by the system, made into a video, and put on his phone.

In Ning Shi’s bag, there was still a large number of black crystals. He planned to put them in the school’s research room for Hao Meng to study. At the national level, Ning Shi was only familiar with Minister Hu and Commander Ou.

He was not familiar with the others, so he held back for the time being.

After Yun Moxiang saw the videos on the phone, her hand trembled with excitement!

These images were too precious. From these images, the officials could derive more information, and thus make corresponding preparations for future insect and beast disasters.

The most precious information in Ning Shi’s phone was the introduction of the characteristics of various insects in the war insect commander’s genetic information.

For a long time, the government’s research on the insects had been extremely passive.

The government could only obtain research materials every time the insects attacked. However, their appearance meant that there would be tens of thousands of casualties.

With this information, the government could immediately respond and defend against new species of bugs.

Ning Shi took back his phone and said with a smile, “I can send these images to the official designated cloud space. My request is simple. I don’t want any merit points. I’ll keep these five A-level spiritual crystals. With 3000 merit points and the information I obtained from the war insect tribe, I’ll take two S-level spiritual crystals.”

Yun Moxiang couldn’t make the call on this matter. She called Minister Hu in front of Ning Shi.

After a while, Yun Moxiang hung up the phone and said, “Minister Hu wants to talk to you directly.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ning Shi’s phone began to vibrate. It was Hu Changjun.

Ning Shi picked it up, and Hu Changjun’s hearty voice was transmitted through the earpiece.

“Xiao Ning, you are indeed the man I thought you would be. Well done! I’ve received your request. If you trust me, you can upload the video to the secret vault website. After I verify the information, I’ll definitely pay you two S-level spiritual crystals!”

He added, “I’m sorry. I said I’d give you at least three S-level spiritual crystals, but I didn’t expect the situation to change so quickly. If it weren’t for you being so capable, I might’ve gone back on my word. Don’t worry, I won’t let you down this time.”

Ning Shi replied, “Minister Hu, thank you for your help. Even if the price of S-level spiritual crystals increases, I can still afford them. You don’t have to worry about me.”

He was very grateful to Hu Changjun.

Not only did Hu Changjun give him a Thunder Larva Saber and a bottle of insect brain pills the first time they met, but the former also helped him choose the best war insect armor.

In terms of official rewards, Hu Changjun had also fought to give him better resources many times.

...

Hearing Ning Shi’s words, Hu Changjun burst into laughter.

“Good! The future of the country depends on outstanding young people like you. It’s a deal then. After I verify the videos, I’ll immediately call for a meeting between the overlords and deliver the S-level spiritual crystals to you as soon as possible.”

After that, Hu Changjun hung up the phone.
