Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 114 Gifts
Cato was taken aback.

Immediately drew back his right hand.

The tip of his index finger that was trapped in the black cube was still intact, without any defect or injury, not even the tactile sensation when touching it.

That unique experience reminded him of the black hole when he traveled through the research institute.

"No way……"

Jiatu thought subconsciously, and stretched his right hand towards the black cube again.

This time the cube changed as his arm went deeper, becoming a cylinder.

But when the forearm was about a third in, Jiatu felt a sense of resistance, as if some kind of elastic membrane was pushing and pulling his arm, preventing him from moving forward.

"The shape of the cube seems to change according to my arm, but the capacity is limited, only about one liter..."

Jiatu stared at the black cube in front of him, and suddenly felt a movement in his heart:
"One liter...one decimeter...couldn't be..."

He picked up the long sword in his hand, aimed at the black cube, and inserted it in.

This time, the long sword was not blocked, but was swallowed smoothly, and it didn't stop until the gauntlet got stuck on the black cube.

But this is not difficult for Jiatu, just pull the two ends and pull it hard, the black cube is like a bag that has been pulled open, it changes shape, and the long sword falls into it smoothly.

Looking at the two-handed long sword that disappeared in front of him, Jiatu put his head on his head and meditated for a few seconds.

Ended the call of the black cube.

The long sword did not fall out of the void either.

Jiatu took a deep breath, summoned the black cube again, and then stretched his right hand into it.

"Ah! Pain!"

Carelessly, Jiatu touched the blade, and a small cut was made on the thumb of his right hand.

Fortunately, the limbs of his right hand were extremely tough and alienated, so he still used two fingers to pinch the long sword out.

"The weight of a two-handed long sword is about 1 kg, and the density ratio of water and iron is roughly 1:7... I can put seven kilograms of iron in a one-liter water cup... that is, seven long swords, even Including the space of the scabbard, three to four can be placed..."

Jiatu thought quickly, and gradually understood what the black cube was——

This is a storage space!
The total capacity is about 1 liter, it will not be affected by the weight of the object, and it can change with the shape of the placed object!
"However, the range of deformation is limited... Although the interior is not restricted, but at most it can be stuffed with a cross-section of about 1 square decimeter..."

Jiatu tried to stuff the bamboo basket that Sun Simiao had left in the wooden house into the storage space, but failed.

Because the cross-section of the black cube can't get that big.

In the same way, things like iron pots and wooden boxes cannot be stuffed in.

On the contrary, spherical objects like apples and oranges can be easily stuffed into several.

"Because the space density of the sphere is the highest..."

Jiatu figured out the general properties of the black cube, and began to think about its use.

"First of all, make sure that it is useful."

Jiatu began to list the information in his head:

"Although the size is limited, the objects put in have no weight. In other words, I have an extra 1 liter of non-weight-bearing space. Heavy and heavy things like long swords, weapons, and bullets can be stuffed into it. To save energy."

The shield doesn't seem to fit in, after all, the maximum deformation is [-] centimeters...

Jiatu judged, and began to consider the value of this characteristic to himself:
"First of all, for me, this space has become a safe that only I can open. I can fill it with things that others don't know, such as black or orange drinks..."

Although a bottle of "Coke" has a capacity of 330ml, only three bottles can be stuffed; Dong ○ special drink is only 250ml, so I don't know if it can fit four bottles.

But these two things are killer when used well.

So Jiatu always wanted to carry a few bottles with him.

But luck drinks are too similar to ordinary drinks. If there is no good way to hide them, it is easy for others to drink them by mistake, causing serious consequences.

It will also expose the existence of the Institute.

So these few training missions, he didn't bring them out.

"And the black drink is just an ordinary soda can, which is easily damaged in battle, so it's not particularly useful - if you have a black cube, you don't need to worry about this..."

"And most importantly..."

Jiatu looked at the oranges and fruits in front of him:

"If you put things in the storage space, you don't need to consume mana when you pass through the 'door'... This is too important..."

Jiatu is very clear that carrying items through the "Gate" needs to "consume magic", which is a big limitation for explorers.

It can be said that most of Wu Ning's energy has been devoted to this.

Maybe Jiatu's Li energy is still very inconspicuous, but when it grows to one cubic meter, ten cubic meters?
Could it be that he alone can solve the transportation needs of the entire shelter?
"And if it is really possible to carry weapons and ammunition without restriction...then just the few people in front of us are enough to capture Razor Town..."

Jiatu thought silently, but he also knew that the last idea was not realistic.

After all, they can attack Razor Town with a few hundred people, but there is a country called "Empire" behind Razor Town, which angered them. Just tens of thousands of musketeers and magicians can overwhelm them.

Even if the strength of each explorer is astonishing, weapons and ammunition can be supplied without limit based on Jiatu's ability, and they are not afraid of low-level human troops, but the existence of "Gate" will inevitably become a weakness.

Once the back road is cut off, the explorers suffering from blood fever will gradually lose their combat effectiveness, as short as a month or as long as several months.

In the end, it was wiped out by the imperial forces.

"But now that I think about it, it's a bit far away. I don't know if the storage space can really increase gradually as my strength improves..."

Jiatu looked at the small cube in front of him and forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart.

He knew that he should have expectations.

Because just like the name "Li Neng", it was born from his wish.

His own "gift".
