    This could even be seen as the standard for high-level mechanical transformation partners.


    But now there’s a portable personal terminal here!


    Even if the effect is somewhat diluted, with various limitations, and damage occurs after being breached,


    but being breached also means that the shield has already absorbed and blocked enough damage for you.


    Without the shield, you’d be soaking up the damage yourself.


    For experts, the value of this shield isn’t very high, because it also has limitations on oneself, and elite partners would tend to use other methods instead.


    But for middle-tier Pioneers, this is likely irresistible!


    The convenience of carrying, as well as the quantity, can fully compensate for these shortcomings!


    Before the dumping of goods in the Zombie World, bulletproof vests could sell for one or two hundred, and better versions could fetch thousands.


    Just like those, they’re useless once damaged.


    This portable version adds an extra layer of protection, wouldn’t someone buy it for ten thousand a piece?


    If there are a few thousand, that’s tens of millions!


    If there are tens of thousands, that’s hundreds of millions!


    The price will drop if the numbers are too high!


    But there are undoubtedly enough people in the Inner City willing to pay this price!


    After all, it’s aimed at middle-tier Pioneers, not some high-priced luxury goods.


    A single one isn’t really worth Tao Yu’s effort right now.


    But seeing each of these attacking soldiers equipped with one, it’s a whole different story...


    "The last time I saw the little heiress, I hadn’t encountered the Sand Hidden Village and the Harkonnen Family, but so much time has passed, the new Development Zone might have discovered these treasures, it’s a race against time now!"


    Subsequently, Tao Yu’s gaze pierced through the thick fog, locking onto the bald head being protected by a Jonin.


    Good, you’re the one...


    Tao Yu didn’t care about the life or death of these people from RDA who survived.


    Some died amidst the chaos of gunfire, some lost their masks.


    But before he could speak up, a radiant light shone in Tao Yu’s eyes, causing Raban’s expression to become vacant for a moment, and then he spoke into the walkie-talkie,


    "All drop your weapons and surrender, drop your weapons, those who disobey will die!"


    Tao Yu could sense that the Harkonnen Family warriors hidden in the mist were still hesitating, but it seemed that Raban truly held some authority, as they gradually started to drop their weapons with resounding clangs.


    From what he could feel about several soldiers nearby through Unity of Heaven and Man, their respect for Raban was more out of fear, and it seemed that the added ’those who disobey will die!’ imposed a significant restraint on them.


    "You, what have you done to me? Witch!"


    After Raban broke free from the Illusion Technique, he seemed to vaguely recall his own actions, and his face was stricken with horror.


    And Tao Yu too, turned back to him with some surprise.


    His compound Illusion Technique was not very sophisticated, but its impact on ordinary people was still extremely strong; it had been tested multiple times on the road.


    For those with firm wills, it was difficult to produce long-term effects, but this guy didn’t seem to have a very strong will either.


    Witch?


    What’s that all about?


    Tao Yu placed a hand on the man’s bald head, and suddenly, the brightness in his eyes intensified, causing Raban to let out a scream.


    If it weren’t for Tao Yu gripping his head, he might have collapsed to the ground.


    After the light in Tao Yu’s eyes gradually dimmed, a peculiar look crossed his face.


    "His mental strength is much stronger than that of an ordinary person, though somewhat chaotic. But in terms of volume alone, it could at least be comparable to the level of Meditation Technique lv2, yet he doesn’t seem to have any unique cultivation methods on him, nor does he appear to be particularly resolute in will, this..."


    Tao Yu fell into deep thought.


    "If it’s the peculiar mental strength you speak of, it’s actually induced by ’Spice’. It offers considerable resistance to Illusion Techniques, and it is a special product of Erakos Star that enhances mental activity, which is also quite beneficial for us ninjas."


    These were the words of the sealed Masu, apparently hoping to use this information as an overture.


    Tao Yu also remembered something Sully had mentioned in passing on the way back.


    Since it was called ’Spice’, Tao Yu hadn’t truly considered it to be anything particularly grand prior to this.


    Refreshing and awakening substances, yes, like mint leaves and camphor pills, too.


    Turns out your ’Spice’ really does ’refresh’ indeed!


    "The good things in that world are plentiful..."


    At this moment, Tao Yu also had a faint premonition that the value of the desert world, where Sharyin or Sand Hiding Village and Erakos Star were situated, might be much higher than imagined!


    These ’Holzman Shields’ are just a part of it...
