Chapter 62: The Iceman
Several people sat in the next room where Mars was, Evan was picking and choosing which pastry to eat first in the lunch box, Elijah was drinking tea elegantly, Natasha was shaking a goblet and watching the red wine in it turn around, and Qin Xi was fine, so he simply closed his eyes and rested.
Neither of them spoke, though, and their attention was on the next door.
The voices next door became quieter and quieter, Mars's breathing leveled off, and the horrific sound of flesh growing and tearing faded away.
The movements of several people stopped at the same time, and Qin Xi also opened his eyes at this time, well, what will come out?
Qin Xi, who was very sensitive to sound, vaguely heard the sound of broken ice coming from next door, getting closer and closer, closer and closer. Squeak - the door was pushed open from the inside, a pale blue cold mist overflowed, and the temperature around it dropped instantly.
Evan smiled at the mist, snapped his fingers, and suddenly a transparent glass-like barrier appeared in front of several people, "Mars, how do you feel?" ”
Qin Xi was shocked, the A-level ability barrier can be called an absolute physical defense!
Elijah remained as steady as Mount Tai, and his eyes were not raised, "Captain, are you too nervous?" ”
Evan swallowed the remaining half of the pastry in his mouth, "Don't be nervous, what if you can't beat it?" ”
Natasha said, "I can't beat it, run away." ”
Qin Xi nodded approvingly, "That's right." ”
Evan looked at the three masters and rolled his eyes, "How do you feel that you are the boss!" ”
At this time, Mars's figure finally appeared, and in the vast mist, he looked very pleasing to the eye in the mist.
Qin Xi couldn't help but look at it twice, and Elijah happened to see Qin Xi's appearance, glanced at her, and took a few steps forward to directly block Qin Xi behind him.
Mars walked slowly forward, closer, and everyone gasped.
Mars had a thin layer of ice floating on his body, covering his whole body like a piece of armor.
"You're going to come out like this?" Elijah asked.
Mars seemed a little dazed and froze. He raised his hand and looked at it, and then the temperature around him slowly increased, and the ice on Mars's body quickly dissipated. The whole person is back to normal again.
"I think that's good." Mars's voice was a little hoarse, and there seemed to be a faint blue light in his eyes, and the whole person's temperament was much more sublimated than in the past.
Qin Xi secretly sighed at the magic of the crystal nucleus, and at the same time rejoiced in Mars's tenacity.
It's said to be a way to boost abilities. Only people with extremely tenacious spirits can bear it, which makes Qin Xi admire the man in front of him.
"Has anything changed?" Qin Xi, as the only technician here, decisively took on Betty's work and asked.
Seeing that Mars was sane, Evan closed the barrier, "I'll leave first if it's okay, it's a big deal." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for any reply from others, turned his head and walked outside, and seemed to be really busy.
Natasha watched Evan leave, then said, "He's done with his pastry." It's back to restock. ”
Forehead......
All right.
"I'll leave first if there's nothing to do, and you'll go to my place when you're done." Elijah invited again.
However, Qin Xi is already very accustomed to Elijah going to find himself if he has nothing to do.
After sending Elijah and Natasha away, Qin Xi called all the helpers and spent a whole day conducting a comprehensive examination of Mars's body. After the inspection, Qin Xi didn't seem to have changed anything other than finding that Mars's ability was more advanced.
"Let's go test your mental power." Qin Xi put away the instrument and instructed Mars.
Mars was very cooperative and walked into the mental strength assessment room. Previously, his mental power level was S. I don't know this time......
Qin Xi looked at the result, the corners of his mouth twitched, grandma's, it turns out that there really is such a level as S+!
Very good. It seems that the role of the crystal nucleus is obvious, increasing the level of mental power, making it easier to manipulate and release abilities.
Mars touched his head and walked out, this mental power test is a very tiring test, this time, it is difficult for him to recover without sleeping for ten hours.
After Qin Xi submitted the report to the database. Went straight to Elijah's office.
Elijah was gliding around on the light curtain, seemingly deploying. Qin Xi knew that this was a military secret, so he didn't look at it much, and came directly to Elijah and asked what she had called.
Elijah put down the work in his hand and said calmly, "I would like to sincerely invite you to join us in this exercise. ”
"Huh? Exercise? Qin Xi was completely stunned, what did they have to do with themselves, she was a technician......
Wait, she's a technician, and she's a technician who can fight without being cumbersome, and more importantly, she's also a technician who has the ability to fight and won't become an oil bottle...... It seems that there are quite a lot of benefits to carrying her.
"I asked Colonel Wu Fei, and he said that your research on your 3.1x ability amplifier has entered the final stage, and the project of the recent styling improvement can be completed by Charles, and it can be initially promoted within half a year. So, you will be leisurely for a while after that, and you can't run the rank of captain anymore, I think you can make some achievements when you have just been awarded the rank of captain, so as not to disobey the public because of your youth. ”
Qin Xi felt that what Elijah said seemed to make sense, so he said in passing: "In other words, there are still many people in the military region who think that I, a lieutenant, came too easily?" ”
Elijah nodded, smiling kindly.
But Qin Xi's voice changed, "What do they think, what's the matter with me?" ”
Elijah's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, and he coughed dryly, "Actually, it has something to do with your promotion to the military rank." ”
Rise to the ranks? In other words, it would be an obstacle for her to gain greater authority?
"Oh, what do you say?"
"Participate in our exercise and become a temporary member."
"Cheng, you can arrange it."
Well? How is it a little strange......
Qin Xi tilted his head after agreeing, feeling that something seemed wrong, but he also felt that Elijah seemed to be right, and he had never hurt himself too much......
After this matter was decided, it quickly spread throughout Team A, Gina and Dou Tianyu were naturally happy as if they were something, but Chen Haotian was a little sullen. During this time, Dou Tianyu went to find Bettina who was still in the team and didn't leave whenever he had the opportunity, and Chen Haotian basically didn't see Dou Tianyu much.
At this time, he held a mecha model carved from ore in his hand, and sat on the steps with a sad face, looking at the sunset in the distance.
Ah, a sigh.
Hey, two sighs.
Ah, countless sighs......
Qin Xi looked at this sad man speechlessly, and decisively chose to turn around and go to play with Gina. She really can't do this kind of work of comforting people. (To be continued.) )
PS: Bow and thank the foolish insects for the monthly pass~~ Recommend a good book: "Royal Beast Spirit Fairy", the author looked back lonely and told the story of the black little flower who pounced on the road of sword cultivation~~~
