Anjie returned to her workshop after coming out of Christine's office, she was not in good health, and she could only do logistics work for a long time.

She has no complaints about this, logistics can be said to be an important work that determines the direction of a war, and now that it is in peacetime, it is just the right time to accumulate work experience.

After successfully returning alive from the Northern Fortress, her state of mind has changed to a certain extent, and she has become less talkative than before.

Of course, the heart is still just as "hot".

This fiery embodiment is reflected in her magic, and it becomes "scorching".

The crimson magic steel condensed into the shape of a drill bit, and An Jie operated more than 100 drill bits by himself, processing a bunch of parts in front of him.

The steel parts seemed to have no concept of hardness under these crimson drill bits, and only a "bang" sound was heard, and Anjie completed the parts processing in an instant.

"The L model of the composite steel plate is finished, and there is ...... to come XL propellers, parts for large steam airships, this is a bit difficult to do......"

Anjie picked up the steel that met the conditions from the scrap pile under him and started a new round of processing.

When Admiral Lesa pushed open the door of Anjie's exclusive workshop, she saw her sweating profusely in a steamy room, tinkering with mechanical parts.

"How much time is left?"

"Didi ......"

The cardiac pressure meter rang very face-savingly.

“…… As you can see, Admiral. It's time for me to rest today. ”

As if she hadn't heard Anjie speak, Lesa sat down beside her and picked up a machined screw.

"If you want to sleep, you'll have to wait until I'm done."

“…… Be. ”

"Does the new magic have any effect on the body?"

"Nope."

An Jie stretched out her hand, and a cloud of crimson magic appeared in her palm.

"My flame is steady."

From the moment the Philosopher's Stone was swallowed in her stomach, she had completed the second enhancement. An Jie had thought about what the enhancement would be, such as strengthening her steel attributes, or simply making her able to build a Gundam with her bare hands.

But none of the above two, the second enhancement only gave her one more attribute: fire.

Strictly speaking, Anjie's new attributes are not related to flames except for high temperatures. Because it has neither the explosiveness of an explosion nor the spread of a combustion.

It has only one characteristic, and that is high temperature. Gradual warming over time. No matter how much magic An Jie invests, it can't make it warm up to more than 100 degrees Celsius in an instant, strictly following one second Celsius, it is as stable as an old dog.

However, the disadvantages are obvious, and the advantages are also very large. The first is that the new high temperature attribute is a type that enters mana once and then leaves it alone. An Jie's condensation of a high-temperature attribute magic group does not use much magic power, and if this magic group is left alone, it will be heated until 3,000 degrees Celsius, that is, it will exist for 3,000 seconds for nearly an hour.

The second is that the heat mana can be fused with her steel mana, and the temperature increase will drop to one-third of the original one. And the attribute of fusing magic will also turn into high-temperature steel.

That is, the crimson steel that Anjie was using at the beginning.

"Your magic changes are interesting, it's the first time I've seen anything like this."

Lesa said.

"Maybe it's just my luck."

"It's not a matter of good luck or bad luck."

Lesa narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "An Jie, do you want to hear the secrets of all the cultivation methods in this world?" ”

Anjie: "...... Be all ears. ”

Since the admiral plans to give her popular science, she can really only listen to it with a strong spirit. Fortunately, Lysa did not talk nonsense, and immediately said:

"The Five Great Powers: St. Doragon, Gregory, Ambrizet, Mistegan, and the Southern Orc Alliance, although each has its own characteristic cultivation methods, these cultivation methods all follow the framework of the Trinity."

"Three...... One? ”

"That's right, mental, physical, elemental."

"Ambrizette's technique is - spirit + elemental."

"Gregory's dragon vein energy is - body + elemental."

"The Southern Orcs United Mind Qi Cultivation is - Spirit + Body."

"Mistegan's magic is - spirit + spirit."

"St. Doragon's steel-boned breathing method is – body + body."

Lesa glanced at An Jie and said, "Which kind of self do you think?" ”

An Jie's left hand is pitch black magic, and her right hand is crimson magic. He tilted his head and hesitated: "I am an element + an element?" ”

"That's impossible. Elemental + elemental, like spirit + body + elemental, proves impossible to exist. ”

"Well, my situation ......"

"No one can say what your situation is. But there's no doubt about one thing - you've caught the attention of the upper echelons of the empire. ”

"This time Christine wants to take you to the imperial capital, and she also wants you to stay under her nose, so that she can protect you at any time. Although I have just belittled the situation in the imperial capital, if you are inseparable from Christine, there is no doubt that she can protect you. ”

An Jie was silent, she had expected this day, but she didn't expect it to come so soon. Unusual powers always arouse suspicion, and she can't tell the system.

"But you didn't choose to go to the imperial capital with her, so the task of protecting you fell to me."

Admiral Lesa said in a deep voice, "I'm not afraid to tell you, Second Lieutenant Scarlett. Although I owe you a favor, I have never had any affection for you. Kristen wants to put you in a place where you can see it so you can protect it at all times, but I'm not going to do that! I'll give you what you need and let it go. ”

He turned around, pointed in the direction of the office in the distance, and said to An Jie: "You still have a chance to regret it now, the novice village that can make you enjoy is far away from you." All you will face in the future is hell. ”

An Jie said nonchalantly: "That's exactly what the lower officials expected." ”

"Got it figured?"

“…… Well. ”

Anjie didn't know if Lesa was scaring her, and if so...... She's really scared, really.

But being afraid and giving up are two different things, being afraid does not necessarily mean giving up, there is a kind of person in the world who is obviously afraid of death and will insist on walking the path he has chosen. And fortunately - An Jie is not this kind of person.

Unfortunately - her situation is much worse than the one mentioned above.

Seeing that An Jie's attitude remained unchanged, Lesa nodded. After hiding a hint of approval deep in his eyes, he stretched out his hands to An Jie.

The left hand flashes white, and the right hand is as black as ink.

An Jie gave an inquiring look.

"Choose one, the steel bone breathing method or the recitation qi cultivation method."

“…… What's the difference? ”

"One dies quickly, and the other can be cured."

"What about the general's recommendation?"

"Nian Qi."

Without hesitation, An Jie put her hand on Lesa's left hand that shimmered with white light.

“…… Aren't you afraid that I will harm you? ”

"If the Admiral really wanted to harm me, I wouldn't be alive today."

(Count yourself self-aware.) ）

Although Lesa thought so in his heart, he didn't realize that he was now looking at An Jie more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Since you've made your choice, let's go and rest, come to me tomorrow, and I'll teach you to read qi."
