Chapter 38

The big man held his one-handed short axe in his left hand and reached out with his right to support Wang Ge's back, looking at him with deep affection, eagerly awaiting his response.

Wang Ge was initially stunned, then he nodded forcefully with a silly and innocent look: "Sure! I'm the only one in my family, and since I was young, I've always wished I had an older brother. I could go out and cause trouble, and then my brother would help me sort it out... Hey! What did you stab me with?"

The big man was taken aback, had he not stabbed in?

Did his hand slip?

The big man's right hand, which was behind Wang Ge, was holding a short and sharp military knife. Just as Wang Ge was expressing his feelings, the big man stabbed him in the back. However, it did not turn out as he had expected, with the knife not coming out red.

I'll stab again!

I'll stab again and again!

At this point, there was no turning back. The big man stabbed repeatedly, making the knife blur, but he still couldn't get it in. It was as if something was blocking the blade on Wang Ge's body, either stopping it from going in or causing the tip to slide off.

"Big brother, are you satisfied yet?" Wang Ge asked in that silly and innocent tone, but his eyes were filled with a mocking smile. He suddenly grabbed the big man's wrist.

The big man panicked and tried to break free, but he couldn't. Wang Ge's hands, which looked delicate, were as strong as a vise.

He hurriedly tried to swing the short axe in his left hand, but Wang Ge had anticipated this and grabbed the big man's left hand.

The big man felt his hands completely restrained, and in his panic, he suddenly felt a heavy blow to his chin!

A force so strong that he couldn't even think of resisting hit his chin, making him tilt his head back as if he had been shot, and he spat out a mist of blood.

That's strange, he was holding my hands, so what did he hit me with? The big man was still confused as he fainted.

Wang Ge kicked the big man unconscious and began to loot him.

The big man, as he had said, didn't have much valuable stuff on him. The only valuable thing was his one-handed short axe.

Wang Ge weighed the short axe a few times and had a preliminary judgment. This short axe was likely as valuable as his Vajra dagger. The axe's surface was intricately carved with patterns, and upon closer inspection, Wang Ge realized that these patterns were actually the techniques for using the axe.

But if the big man had the techniques for the axe, why did he use it so clumsily?

Wang Ge frowned and carefully examined the axe techniques. He saw that these techniques were originally for a long-handled axe, not a short one. No wonder the big man hadn't practiced them.

But why were the techniques for a long-handled axe carved on a short axe?

Wang Ge frowned and began to examine every part of the short axe in detail, inch by inch. Thanks to his calm and meticulous nature, he noticed that the patterns on the axe handle seemed to follow some rule.

The patterns on the axe handle were dragon carvings, but the positions of the dragons in the clouds were different, especially the direction of the dragon's mouths and their overlap with the clouds, which seemed to hint at something.

As Wang Ge thought, his fingers unconsciously rotated the joint between the axe head and the handle according to the angle of the dragon's mouths.

After a few left and right rotations, something suddenly triggered, and the short axe's handle extended, and the patterns on the axe head began to change, as if they were being rearranged like a puzzle!

High-tech! Wang Ge was shocked. When the short axe transformed into a large axe, Wang Ge was completely stunned.

He looked at the patterns on the axe head again and couldn't help but gasp. The patterns formed the techniques for the large axe, but now, after being rearranged, they clearly showed martial arts techniques!

Moreover, Wang Ge suspected they were of a high level, as he felt dizzy and disoriented just by looking at them for a while.

The weight of the large axe was also strange. When it was a short axe, it weighed about 30 pounds, but after transforming into a large axe, it weighed about 60 pounds.

The weight can change? Wang Ge felt that the knowledge he learned in elementary and middle school was not enough to understand this, as it completely defied common sense!

So... Wang Ge closed his eyes and recalled, then his hands began to rotate the handle according to his memory. When the large axe transformed back into a short axe, Wang Ge didn't stop but continued to rotate.

Finally, when he opened his eyes, the large axe in his hand had transformed into a Rubik's cube!

Yes, a Rubik's cube!

An intelligence-developing toy!

And it was very light. Wang Ge weighed it in his hand, and it was no more than a pound!

It's amazing...

Wang Ge had some understanding of the weapons in the Federation. After all, no man would dislike weapons, even in the information age, many men were still fond of cold weapons.

The Federation's military weapons, created with high-tech means, were divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.

The Vajra dagger that Wang Ge had bought for 10,000 solar coins was the lowest level, D.

This large axe, with its exquisite craftsmanship, Wang Ge suspected it might be the strongest level, A.

It was said that A-level weapons were exclusively for military leaders, and it was unknown how this unlucky guy got one.

Wang Ge really liked this large axe.

He also knew that short daggers didn't suit his physique and style. His physique was characterized by strength, and short daggers were more suitable for those with speed.

But Wang Ge had no choice, as heavy weapons were more expensive, and even if he bought one, he wouldn't have the techniques to use it.

Techniques were even more expensive due to Federation control, with a single technique costing over 100,000 solar coins, which Wang Ge couldn't even dream of.

The techniques provided in high school were of low quality, and the Federation deliberately made them available to all citizens. The truly advanced techniques and martial arts were all in universities, but if one could attend a university, they wouldn't care about the 100,000 solar coins.

So if Wang Ge were to use a weapon, this large axe would be the most suitable for him, and it even came with its own martial arts techniques, which made Wang Ge extremely happy.

Wang Ge looked at the big man, who would probably take some time to wake up. He took out the fairy perfume, opened the stopper, and dropped a drop on the big man, and the fragrance spread immediately.

Then Wang Ge put the large axe, which had transformed into a Rubik's cube, into his backpack and hurried down the mountain. If he didn't leave soon, it would be completely dark, and his sister would be waiting at home.

Wang Ge hadn't walked far when several pairs of blood-red lanterns appeared in the dim forest, gradually surrounding the still unconscious big man...

Before reaching the foot of the mountain, Wang Ge heard a piercing scream from deep in the mountains and couldn't help but smile.

It wasn't that Wang Ge was cruel, but if he hadn't been smart, he would have been the one to die.

Wang Ge had noticed the big man before he appeared. So when Wang Ge attacked the insect people, his real intention was to lure out the big man.

If the big man had come to help, it would have been fine, but if he hadn't, Wang Ge would have chosen to divert the insect people to the big man's hiding place.

But the big man did come to help, and Wang Ge still remained cautious. He noticed the big man's greedy look at the Feipeng grass.

As for the big man's offer to become sworn brothers, Wang Ge could see through his true intentions.

Wang Ge, of course, wouldn't tell him about the air soft armor he was wearing, so what happened next was inevitable.

The big man's strength wasn't bad; Wang Ge estimated he was a level 7 life form. However, he was always one step behind Wang Ge, so his defeat was inevitable.

Back at the mountain city base, Wang Ge returned home in high spirits. This trip hadn't been in vain; he had obtained two Feipeng grass plants and a large axe that might be an A-level weapon. It seemed that he could buy a new optical computer for Feifei in a few days.

But when he got home, Wang Ge heard Wang Fei let out a long sigh as soon as he opened the door.

Wang Fei had just been challenging someone in the Battle Network. She was slightly stronger than her opponent, but because her optical computer lagged, she lost at a critical moment.

This time, the optical computer didn't just lag for a moment; it lagged for a while. Wang Fei waited for over ten seconds without the computer recovering, so she couldn't help but sigh. But she didn't expect Wang Ge to come in at that moment, and in her panic, her sigh turned into a different sound.

However, Wang Fei was very smart and smoothly turned it into a lazy stretch and a long, winding yawn.

"What's wrong, Feifei?" Wang Ge asked with concern, deliberately glancing at Wang Fei's optical computer screen.

"Ah, nothing, just a bit sleepy," Wang Fei quickly switched the interface, but it froze. In a panic, she restarted it, and the glowing screen instantly dimmed.

Seeing Wang Fei's flustered state, Wang Ge didn't need to guess what had happened.

If this had happened before, Wang Ge would have been very upset. But today was different. He had found two Feipeng grass plants, and one was worth 50,000 solar coins!

Plus, he had earned a lot of money recently, enough to buy a new optical computer for Wang Fei. So Wang Ge planned to surprise his sister, but on the surface, he acted as if he didn't notice and said, "If you're sleepy, go to bed early. Come, I'll prepare some herbs for your foot bath."

"Thank you, big brother," Wang Fei replied obediently. Seeing that Wang Ge was really preparing the herbs, she sighed in relief and playfully stuck out her tongue. It was a good thing her brother was careless and didn't notice.
