Huh?

It turns out that the cold thing just now is not a parasite, but a special energy?

I glanced up at the two of them, Lu Li had already trampled on the fire, and was slapping the dust on his body, Yu Xiaoxiao was still facing away from me, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to me, I silently said to myself, "Surreal Engine, are you there?"

Suddenly a few excited voices rang in my head, "You finally remembered to talk to me!"

"a DJ, you be quiet!" The sound seemed to ring in my ears, and I quickly glanced at the two people over there, for fear that they would hear.

"Don't worry! My voice can only be heard! I'm going to be bored to death this month!, why don't you talk to me!" The engine's electronic voice revealed a deep sense of complaint.

I can't help but feel a black line, how could I think of a programmed creature who still needs to be okay with him!

"Who said that programmed creatures don't need companionship! Programmed creatures are creatures, okay! They also feel empty, lonely, and cold!"

Well?

How do I feel, the way this thing speaks seems to have become a little different from before? The tone used to be always very rational, but now it has become as if I have watched too many Qiong Yao dramas, and even the emptiness, loneliness and coldness have come out.

"Ever since I installed the subsystem in your head, I have been able to access the outside world through you. You're equivalent to my wireless network card, and I can now connect to your human network through you and learn your human knowledge! I haven't done anything else this month, and I've been watching TV dramas. I just finished watching the Zhu Gege trilogy, hey, Xiaoyanzi and Fifth Elder Brother are really-"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, it was a TV series from many years ago!

"Then you say!"

"I'm upgrading—"

"Wu Zheng! What are you doing squatting there! Let's go!"

I was about to speak, when I suddenly heard Yu Xiaoxiao's call, looked up, and found that she and Lu Li had already packed their things and were ready to leave, just waiting for me.

"It's coming, it's coming!" I answered, stood up and shook off the blood on my hands, and said to the engine in my heart, "You're going to delay me!"

"What's wrong with me, I'm not—"

"Shut up! shameless old thief!"

The engine "hum~" aggrievedly, and there was no movement.

I hurriedly ran two steps to catch up with Lu Li and Yu Xiaoxiao, who had already left me and began to walk along the river.

Because we had eaten and rested for a while at noon, we were not able to do it a lot faster. In the afternoon, we decided to walk on the edge of the river beach, there are a lot of weeds growing on the ground near the trees, although it is a bit strenuous to walk, but it is still much easier than walking on the pebble beach.

Just after noon, it should be the time when the animals in the forest come out to feed on the river, and gradually go deeper into the forest along the river, and the animals on both sides gradually increase. There are not groups of animals moving around on the river beach, some of them look familiar, like they have seen them on TV or in the zoo, but if you look closely, you can see that they are slightly different from ordinary animals.

For example, I saw some buffalo-like creatures soaked in water, but with zebra-like fur. There were also giant beetles, each the size of an adult's palm, densely packed across the river beach that gave you goosebumps to look at.

On the way, I walked at the back of the line intentionally or unintentionally, and took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to me, and secretly opened the upgrade interface of the bracelet to check the current situation of the bracelet.

There are some changes on the interface, first of all, the specific value meter used to show "0/100", but now it has changed to "20/200", and the number representing the grade at the beginning has been changed from one to two.

Below the metering bar is the slot interface, and behind the glowing red "retainers", there is an extra white slot.

It seems that the rules that the engine told me earlier are true: "For each additional white slot, the specific energy required to upgrade the bracelet will be doubled." ”

I was thinking in my mind that five slots of the same color could open a higher level slot, and the slot level from low to high was white, green, blue, purple, orange, and red. In this way, if you want to get the next red slot, the last upgrade alone will require five to the fifth power multiplied by one hundred points of energy, and the energy that can be obtained by killing a black lion is only one hundred and twenty points, my dear mother, how long will this have to be accumulated?!

Don't forget, I'm only talking about the last upgrade, but what about the energy needed for the previous upgrade?

I guess I'll never get a second red slot in my life.

Let's look at the present first, I gently touched the extra white slot, and three optional white plug-ins appeared in front of me-

Stamina: Your base energy consumption coefficient is reduced by one percent. (Passive Skill) (Repeat the selection effect stacks multiply)

Accelerated Evolution: The amount of specific energy you need to level up is reduced by one percent. (Passive Skill) (Repeat the selection effect stacks multiply)

Energy Saver Pioneer: Reduces your model's energy consumption coefficient by 1% (Passive Ability) (Repeat selection effects stack by multiplication)

I didn't hesitate to choose the second "Accelerated Evolution", I'm worried about the slow upgrade, it's great to have such a fast-track plugin, it's like trying to eat hail under the ice.

After installing the plugin, I checked the upgrade interface again, and found that the value displayed on the specific value meter bar has become "20/180", don't look at the current only saving 20 points of energy, the amount of energy it can save for the whole upgrade process will be a huge number.

"Wu Zheng, what are you doing?" Yu Xiaoxiao's call interrupted my thinking, and when I looked up, she and Lu Li both looked at me with a strange gaze, "You have been sneaky and not normal since just now, and you are still gesturing in the air with your hands, are you hiding something from us!"

"Uh-" This little girl is quite difficult, I quickly fooled, "I'm thinking about my own private affairs, it's inconvenient to reveal too much to you, so don't ask Ang." ”

"Hmph~Who rarely asks about your private affairs~" Yu Xiaoxiao snorted and turned around and continued to walk forward, I shook my head with a wry smile and didn't speak, but found that Lu Li still had a look of suspicion on his face.

I walked two steps quickly and followed, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and laughed, "Gone brother, what are you thinking!" After that, I took the lead and walked forward, I faintly felt that although Lu Li didn't like to talk much, his mind was much more careful than Yu Xiaoxiao, who was nervous. And it seems that his digital armament can also create a virtual interface similar to my upgrade interface, could it be that he has already analyzed that I am controlling a certain interface through my gestures?

There were no words along the way, and the rest of the time became a little dull, and as we continued to move forward, it was already approaching dusk, and it was gradually getting dark. On the way, in order to calibrate the direction, Lu Li stopped from time to time to open the map to observe for a while. By this time we had walked along the creek through the heart of the forest, gradually approaching the northern edge, but still some distance from our destination, which meant that we were walking slower than expected.

This is a big problem, because at this rate, there is a good chance that we will not be able to complete our pre-set itinerary in three days.

You know, walking along the river is already the easiest way to do it. According to the preconceived plan, we will have to hike through the forest for the next two days, and the two days will be full of thorns, and the branches of the vines will seriously slow us down, and who knows if there will be any danger on the way?

"It's not a problem to go on like this," I said to the other two as I walked forward, "and our journey has gone very well today, but it is still much slower than expected. I think we should discuss a solution. ”

"What can be done, we don't have any means of transportation, just rely on our own two legs, it's not easy to walk so fast, okay!" Yu Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little tired, and when she was not quiet when she walked and jumped along the way, she relied on her young spirit to be good, and at first she relied on the freshness in her heart to support it, but once she got bored with the surrounding environment, this girl was also the first to be physically exhausted.

And Lu Li and I are different, all our physical strength is used on the road, and our endurance is better than that of Yu Xiaoxiao, a girl, although I haven't rested much this afternoon, but I still feel that I can support it until now.

Lu Li thought for a while and said, "Why don't we open up the imaging space a little bit and use the model to move forward?"

As soon as I heard that, I immediately felt that this would be a good idea.

That's right, our imaging space really can't be moved, but we can open the space a little bigger, summon a model as a means of transportation, and when we want to move out of the imaging space, we will open a new imaging space again, so although it is a little troublesome, but it is also equivalent to moving the imaging space in disguise!

I couldn't help but exclaim, "What a way, Lu Li! Why didn't I think of it before!"

Yu Xiaoxiao, who was walking at the back, thought about it and said with some frustration, "The solution is a good way, but my models are all character models, and there are no cars or anything like that!"

My guess is,This girl's models are probably all that kind of handsome guy or male character.。

I was trying to tease her, and I teased, "You can summon a handsome guy to come out and run away on your back! Have you ever seen Inuyasha? I remember that the heroine there has been riding on Inuyasha's back?"

I just wanted to make a joke with Yu Xiaoxiao, but I didn't expect this girl to think about it carefully, and actually nodded and gave me a thumbs up, "Good way, I didn't think of it before!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand to summon her own imaging space, trying to expand the scope of the space, and we watched her space gradually expand from three meters and five meters at the beginning, to fifty meters and one hundred meters, but soon she turned off the space with a bitter face.

Lu Li and I were a little surprised, "What's wrong, why is it turned off?"

Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head with a wry smile and said, "You shouldn't have tried to expand your imaging space, right? I just tried it for the first time, and then I realized that the energy consumption coefficient of the original imaging space has also changed. ”

It turns out that although the size of the imaging space we usually summon is different, it is the initial size of your imaging space, you can try to reduce it or enlarge it, but this range will also affect the energy consumption coefficient of the imaging space... The magnitude of the coefficient is proportional to the volume of the space.
