Chapter 16: Monsters Are Also a Resource!

Page 1/3

Although Shen Yu had never mentioned it, the situation was not difficult to comprehend. He was rapidly considering in his mind what he could offer from his side.

In fact, the moment Huang Jingrong first heard the name “Multidimensional Doomsday Civilization Mutual Assistance Association,” he already had a rough idea. Then, the three membership-related rules that Shen Yu explained only reinforced this suspicion.

At first glance, this association seemed more like a platform—a safe space for civilizations struggling through doomsday scenarios to exchange what they needed. Even so, it was crucial for these doomed civilizations, perhaps their only hope for survival.

After all, judging by the current circumstances, their civilization was undoubtedly destined for doom, and the association represented the sole variable in that fate.

But what could they possibly offer in return?

Would an interstellar civilization lack productivity? Technology? Or natural resources?

Huang Jingrong immediately realized the thorny problem.

Faced with a civilization superior in technology, production, and resources, human civilization found it hard to provide anything of value for trade.

Yet, there had to be something!

Otherwise, this visitor would never have come.

Just as Huang Jingrong was close to an answer, Shen Yu spoke first.

“Monsters,” he said.

Those two words ignited a spark in Huang Jingrong’s mind.

Yes, monsters!

Their world had monsters too!

Monsters were a resource!

“This is precisely why I came and am willing to enter into a mutual assistance agreement,” said the interstellar Shen Yu at that moment. “Our world is also under invasion, facing a clear enemy. The monsters in your world are unique, likely containing special technology and hold considerable military research value.”

This was the conclusion Shen Yu reached after discussing with his interstellar counterpart.

Currently, the interstellar Shen Yu was just an ordinary soldier about to enlist in his world’s military. He urgently needed to prove his worth and gain a higher status.

Only then could he provide more powerful weapons and technology to other worlds and better assist his own civilization.

Compared to the slow effects of martial arts, the meteorite monsters on their home planet better met the value demands in the early stages!

The three types of monsters known so far could well be considered biological weapons.

They even carried an otherworldly aura.

At this moment, Huang Jingrong’s mind was fully engaged.

What harm could there be in trading monsters to this interstellar civilization?

Almost none!

First, the monsters were numerous, and not all were needed for research—they could keep some for themselves.

Second, the other side’s scientific research capabilities were evidently far superior, increasing the chances of breakthroughs.

If the results could be shared, it would also help them solve their monster problem.

More importantly, since this was a trade, those monsters could be exchanged for urgently needed human technologies and even advanced equipment!

Infinite joy welled up in Huang Jingrong’s heart, like a drowning man suddenly spotting a life buoy, desperately clutching onto hope, seeing the light—it lingered within him endlessly.

He seemed to finally understand the true purpose of the Multidimensional Doomsday Civilization Mutual Assistance Association!

“I need to report this, but there should be no problems,” Huang Jingrong promptly said.

Given his authority, he couldn’t make a definitive promise.

But he could not imagine any reason for refusal.

This was the only visible hope to save their precarious civilization and countless lives.

Without exaggeration, anyone who dared to block this would become an enemy of all humanity!

“For specific trade details, Shen Yu member is welcome to contact and communicate with my world anytime,” the interstellar Shen Yu looked at Shen Yu again. “If capturing monsters proves difficult, I can also provide part of the technological support upfront as a deposit, just like the ‘gift’ before.”

Only now did Huang Jingrong realize that the previous gift actually had the meaning of a deposit.

To think of using monsters for trade and actually attracting such powerful support…

Shen Yu’s ability to build such a large company in such a short time was not just due to his capabilities.

Huang Jingrong suddenly felt fortunate. Considering the importance and irreplaceability of members, it was truly a blessing that their civilization’s member was Shen Yu—not someone lacking vision, ability, or virtue, or even worse, someone antisocial or against humanity.

“Well then, let’s leave it at that for now. This time, I just came to see your world,” interstellar Shen Yu walked to the window, slightly drew back the curtain corner, gazing at the towering buildings and bustling streets outside, murmuring, “May our worlds and civilizations endure forever.”

“May our worlds and civilizations endure forever!” Shen Yu solemnly echoed.

In the next moment, the interstellar Shen Yu’s figure vanished into a swirling gray mist.

Only four people remained on the scene.

After a brief silence, Huang Jingrong finally exhaled deeply and sank back onto the sofa.

Although Shen Yu in front of him was also a person of special status and great importance, the pressure brought by the recent guest was evidently much heavier.

After all, this was, in some sense, “one of their own.”

“Boss Shen, you gave us a huge surprise today, but it was a bit overwhelming. It would have been better if you had told us earlier, giving us more time to prepare,” Huang Jingrong said with a faint, wry smile.

Looking back at his performance just now, Huang Jingrong felt he had not done well.

But everything had happened too suddenly and was so shocking.

He still carried a sense of disbelief.

“I would have liked to proceed more slowly, to be fully prepared beforehand, but time waits for no one, and crises even less so,” Shen Yu shook his head and sat back in his chair. “Yesterday, I happened to check some related data and was shocked. There are giant worms over five kilometers long, not to mention the neighboring eye worms, which have already caused over a million casualties. Even zombies that appeared just yesterday have caused tens of thousands of deaths in a single day.”

As he spoke, Shen Yu’s expression grew grave.

Yes, the situation was terrible.

Especially the latter two, both spreading and expanding at an alarming speed!

Frankly speaking, without any major targeted breakthroughs, there’s no need to wait for the meteorite’s main body eight years later. These two monster types alone are enough to destroy all of human civilization.
