Chapter 198: Overpowered Configuration
Returning to the real world, before Luo Ji could even fully regain his senses, the smell of disinfectant made his nose feel uncomfortable.
Then, he found himself standing in a hospital corridor, specifically at the entrance of an emergency room…
Alright, he remembered.
He had logged in from here before, so he would log out here as well.
The emergency room light was red, indicating surgery was in progress.
He clearly didn’t know the person being rescued.
Standing there was quite strange, but perhaps due to the system’s effect, the patients’ family members in the corridor showed no abnormalities.
All in all, it was best to leave first.
Returning to his home, a long time had passed since he last logged off.
Now, as the door opened, a truly nauseating stench immediately assaulted him, due to the lack of ventilation for too long.
“Oh, my god!”
Luo Ji quickly covered his nose and mouth.
After retreating several steps, as if remembering something, his entire face instantly turned ashen.
“The unfinished takeout from before, I forgot to throw it away…”
After a long period of chemical reactions, it was now almost emanating a scent of despair…
Strongly resisting the urge to turn and leave, Luo Ji held his breath and quickly rushed into his room, first opening the window.
As his gaze swept across the half-eaten takeout on the table, his entire facial muscles clearly twitched unnaturally.
Not only was it moldy, but it had also grown maggots…
Suppressing the disgust in his heart, Luo Ji swept that half-portion of unknown object, which seemed like the ‘source of all evil,’ into a garbage bag.
Then, he decisively tied the bag opening and went downstairs to dispose of the trash.
However, after being consumed for so long, trying to remove the strange odor from the room just by taking out the trash was inevitably naive.
He could only endure it for now.
He didn’t have time for a thorough deodorizing clean-up of the house.
At most, he’d spray some air freshener bought from the small supermarket downstairs.
This was already the limit.
Turning on his old computer, Luo Ji immediately felt much better after shifting his attention to serious matters…
“I see. So the main use of fluorite is to extract calcium fluoride, and calcium fluoride can be used as a flux in steelmaking to remove impurities, is that right?”
It was certainly too far off.
Luo Ji didn’t even have a piece of iron right now, so what was there to talk about steelmaking?
However, fluorite’s use wasn’t just this one.
Besides extracting calcium fluoride, it also seemed capable of being made into various special lenses and glass.
This way, its uses might be quite extensive.
Taking lenses as an example, even Luo Ji, who had barely any knowledge, knew that lenses for things like telescopes and microscopes were all optical lenses.
And as for telescopes, did their use in reconnaissance and military need any more explanation?
Even just for telescopes, he had to thoroughly research this fluorite.
During the time he spent offline researching data, he didn’t forget to send a message to Gao Su, to verify his previous analysis with the other party.
Facts proved his analysis was correct.
At the same time, Ye Qingxuan, who learned that he had returned to the real world, also sent a message, asking him about some knowledge regarding crop cultivation.
For Luo Ji, who was currently in the real world, this kind of thing was just a trivial matter.
He just needed to simply search for relevant information, then input the search results into the message window and send them to Ye Qingxuan.
It was incredibly easy.
Time passed quickly.
He only stayed in the real world for one day.
After thoroughly researching and memorizing all the information he needed to check, Luo Ji directly returned to the other world.
Because the time flow rate was a default 1:10, Luo Ji, who had spent one day in the real world, found that 10 days had just passed in the other world.
Luo Ji originally thought no troublesome incidents would occur in such a short time, but the reality was quite different.
“What?”
“A tribal camp appeared north of the Black Rock Tribe?” Listening to Luo Jin’s report, Luo Ji’s brows immediately furrowed deeply.
“I should have repeatedly emphasized that area needed special attention.”
“And now you’re telling me a strange tribal camp suddenly appeared there, and you didn’t even notice it before?”
Luo Ji’s voice subtly carried a hint of anger.
All of their tribe’s coal resources were supplied by the Black Rock Tribe, making it a very important resource point, which was why Luo Ji paid particular attention to that area.
Although for the current Luo Ji, the natives of this era were no longer a threat, a trace of anger still flared in his heart.
The reason was that the reconnaissance team had made such a huge blunder on a task he had repeatedly emphasized!
“It is your subordinate’s failure of duty! Your subordinate is willing to accept any punishment!”
Looking at Luo Jin, who hung his head low, Luo Ji’s mood was also complex.
He always felt that something might be wrong with this matter.
He knew Luo Jin’s capabilities, and he was also a trusted subordinate 100% loyal to him.
Luo Jin would only take tasks he assigned very seriously, perhaps even overly so.
How could he possibly pretend to comply while acting against his wishes?
Thinking of this, Luo Ji sorted out his somewhat chaotic thoughts, then quickly spoke.
“Go and notify the cavalry troops to gather.”
“Call Bai Ze and Liu Meng as well.”
“I will personally lead the troops to investigate!”
It’s no exaggeration to say that, with the cavalry troops’ swift mobility, combined with the personal strength of these two great generals, Bai Ze and Liu Meng, this configuration, once combined, could literally do whatever they pleased in this era.
He said he was going to check the situation, but his actual thought was to conveniently take down that tribe later.
In any case, Luo Ji would absolutely not allow any tribe to set up camp near his vital resource point!
Whoever dared to build one, he would crush them.
It was that direct!
There was no need to worry about Liu Meng not knowing how to ride a horse.
Before he logged off, the two tasks he assigned to Liu Meng were to adapt to life in the Mirror Tribe and to learn to ride a horse.
How could a dignified fierce general with dual 4-star growth not even know how to ride a horse?
Facts proved that Liu Meng had completed these two tasks assigned by Luo Ji quite well.
What would take 2 days of walking, the cavalry squad covered in less than half a day, reaching the outskirts of that tribal camp.
There was no intention of concealing their tracks.
Mainly, with such dense hoofbeats, it was impossible to be low-key.
The people in that tribe had clearly heard the commotion from outside, and many ran out of the camp to confirm the situation.
And as the distance between the two sides continuously shortened, when they finally clearly saw the entire tribal camp, Luo Ji, Bai Ze, and Liu Meng all changed their expressions simultaneously…
“Ho- How could this be…”
