Chapter 152 - The Scarlet Flame Drakes True Strength (1/2)
“What exactly did I just think of?” Zhang Che tried his hardest to remember, but the flash of inspiration seemed to have disappeared entirely. There was no trace to pick up on.
He was close to swinging his fist at his head, but thinking of the serious consequences of his actions, he decided to let it go.
“No, I have to calm down!” Thus, Zhang Che shut his eyes and took deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down.
After about half a minute or so, his frustration disappeared. Zhang Che opened his eyes and looked at the Rock Tortoise, ordering it, “Come, shoot a rock bullet and show me.”
Bang! The Rock Tortoise opened its mouth, shooting a football-sized rock bullet out. The projectile crashed deep into the earth, leaving a ten-centimeter-deep crater.
“Sii…” Zhang Che sucked in a breath of cold air. His constitution might be far better than a normal human’s, but even he would end up with broken bones at the very least, if not death, if he was struck by the rock bullet.
However, this had no relation to what he thought of earlier!
Zhang Che seemed to have realized what he was thinking, and instructed the Rock Tortoise, “Are you only capable of shooting rock bullets? Can you spit out the entire mountain rock you just swallowed? Uhm, do it gently; don’t treat it as an attack.”
Although the cute tortoise had no idea why its master gave such directions, it still opened its mouth obediently and spat out a tiny black bead, which instantly turned into the huge rock from before. It slammed onto the ground with a loud crunch, causing the earth to tremble violently for a moment.
At that moment, Zhang Che came to a realization!
He tossed his backpack to the Rock Tortoise and commanded, “Here, suck this in and spit it out gently!”
The cute Rock Tortoise was very obedient. It opened its mouth and sucked the backpack in, then quickly spat it out gently onto the grass, without causing any damage to the backpack at all.
“Hahahaha…” Zhang Che immediately went wild with joy, letting out an extremely hearty laugh.
He was incredibly excited! This was even more worthy of celebration than rising to Tier Four and killing Wu Yunfeng!
It turned out that this Rock Tortoise whose mouth he had defiled was the best subdued beast! With its storage ability, Zhang Che didn’t have to worry about not being able to bring many resources into the beast world, nor did he have to worry about the things he brought back being discovered!
A moving storage container like this was truly something necessary for doing all kinds of things!
Let alone anything far-fetched, Zhang Che could immediately be liberated from his burden.
Although Zhang Che usually didn’t take part in battles, he had to always carry his backpack around. It truly wasn’t very comfortable, despite its weight being inconsequential to him.
Zhang Che could not only let the Rock Tortoise carry his backpack for him, he could also hand over the Falling Star Model X to it. In truth, any extra burdens could be given to it!
However, there was a problem…
How much space was available in the Rock Tortoise’s body? After storing Zhang Che’s belongings, would it still be able to shoot rock bullets and use its Rock Bullet Gatling skill?
Zhang Che had the Rock Tortoise swallow as many rocks as it could. In the end, he found out, to his dismay, the fellow was unable to continue after swallowing about twenty cubic meters worth of rocks.
This meant that the space within the Rock Tortoise’s body was about twenty cubic meters.
“Hmm, it is sufficient if it is only carrying my belongings!”
Although Zhang Che felt that the storage space was a little small, it was sufficient after thinking it through carefully. Being able to carry about twenty cubic meters worth of resources would probably be enough to last him a few years, wouldn’t it?
However, it was obvious that he’d never remain in the beast world for such a long period without exiting.

What followed next was testing whether the Rock Tortoise still had any offensive capabilities after storing Zhang Che’s belongings.
