Sending William away, Wang Yi didn't feel sleepy, and hesitated for a moment whether to start combining runes now or go out for a few laps first.

Combining runes is not a benefit that is available at all times, and you may be able to get some abilities that can save your life in the secret world, but if you don't understand anything, you will work hard, and it is not good to miss the precious runes or waste too much time because of low-value runes, and finally Wang Yi decided to go out to inquire about some information, and he can't take anything others say seriously, although there is really no need for people to lie now.

Walking out of the room, Wang Yi didn't forget to bring the key and lock the door, ready to go to the restaurant to try the food here, it was already ten o'clock the next day, but in the world of thirty hours a day, I don't know if it was time to eat.

Luckily, it's still breakfast time, you can go for breakfast from 7 to 12 o'clock, lunch from 15 to 18 o'clock, dinner from 20 to 25 o'clock, and the three meals on earth are about the same. The restaurant is no different from the one on earth, but now as a newcomer, Wang Yi doesn't need to pay, of course, it can't be wasted, and if you ask for food, at least you can't have too much left.

In this regard, Wang Yi just looked at the young man from the earth who came with him in his line of sight, that is, the man who was not dressed very seriously, at this time he was sitting with the woman in pajamas, the table was full of food, the woman was a little embarrassed, but unfortunately her companion was not conscious, talking while eating, it was estimated that he would not eat in vain or something like that, anyway, Wang Yi had already found that there was a big green-skinned strange man who looked like an administrator walking over.

Wang Yi, who no longer paid attention to the other side, concentrated on the small bowl of porridge in front of him, a plate of green vegetables he didn't recognize, and a red fruit that sparkled like crystal.

"Can I sit here?"

A young man walked up to Wang Yi, somewhat familiar, and then Wang Yi recognized the "golden hoop" on his head.

"Of course, hello Eric, I'm Panda."

"Hello, Panda, I'm glad you know my name, but it seems to be ...... It's not like the country I thought it was, but if it's a code name, it's very appropriate, and pandas are cute. ”

"Please don't describe a man as cute, and you never think about how ferocious a panda's abilities can be."

Eric smiled, "Can you describe it for me?" ”

"Of course, you listen well, in fact, I can't stand the panda the most, the bite force is second only to the polar bear, the same level as the brown bear, the running speed in the mountains above two thousand meters above sea level can exceed the maximum speed of ordinary humans on the flat land, can climb dozens of meters high trees, can play with several wolves as cushions, the most outrageous thing is that such a cruel thing actually makes a living by selling cuteness!"

"Poof! You're humorous, man. ”

"Thanks for the compliment, I've always had a good sense of humor, and my friends say so."

"Well, actually...... What I'm trying to say is, you know that newcomers will enter the secret realm, right? ”

"Yes, a companion just came over to introduce me, and I heard that the secret realm is very dangerous."

"Yes, newcomers often encounter a lot of dangers, of course, there are also opportunities, and that great being also takes good care of newcomers, and the task is basically to survive."

"Well, and then what?"

"Opportunities and dangers coexist, and if you have more ability, you can naturally get more opportunities to improve yourself. I have a study that the genetic material in the human body actually contains some special information, and as long as this genetic material can be stimulated, even newcomers who don't know anything can get good strength. ”

"You're still a biologist? You know, I've always admired scientists. ”

"Not really, I'm actually better at electromagnetics. Because of some things, I need companions, and I'm willing to pay some price in exchange for your help in the future, I don't know what you mean? Of course, I have to tell you in advance that this kind of stimulation will consume your life force, and even risk your life, but everything can be replenished here, as long as you are willing to promise to help me in the future, all the consumption will be mine. Or if you regret it later, you can also directly return the materials consumed this time to me, and then we don't owe each other. ”

Wang Yi looked at Eric, there was too much information in the eyes of the man in front of him, frustration and grief about the past, and a kind of attachment to the future, he didn't even ask for a certificate or any other contract. Recalling what Sean said, Eric estimates that he has been doing this for a long time, and he doesn't know how much he has paid Wang Yi doesn't know, but such an experiment must be very expensive, otherwise the Explorer Alliance would not be unaware that there is such a way to improve the survivability of newcomers, since a large organization like the Explorer Alliance is not capable of using the means of stimulating genetic information on a large scale, the consumption is conceivable.

Of course, it is also possible that the sequelae are relatively large, but since everything can be supplemented, this aspect should not be considered.

"What if the abilities I inspire don't help you? Or if I am not willing to complete the agreement in the future, and I am not willing to compensate you for your losses, what should I do then? ”

"Then when I make a failed investment, not every effort pays off."

Eric said calmly, but Wang Yi could hear the uneasiness in his heart.

"Are you sure it won't have irreparable effects on me?"

Wang Yi decided to give it a try, although he didn't know who Eric was, but his eyes would not deceive people, and the emotions in it could not be faked, and a person with persistence would not deceive people.

"Of course! Belch...... If you don't count the abilities that are activated, it really won't cause irreparable consequences, and I've prepared enough items and runes to replenish my life force. ”

"So, let me see it now?"

"Okay, but can you let me finish breakfast first?"

"Of course!" ……

Eric's residence is in a separate courtyard outside the building, and Wang Yi's place is collectively known as the Central Building, because it is where the Explorer Alliance works, and the newcomers are specially allowed to live there in order to familiarize them with the environment, and they will move out after the welfare period.

"Wow! It's full of futuristic technology, no wonder you say you're better at electromagnetism, but don't you think the colors are too monotonous when the whole house is made of metal? Isn't the reflection of light good? ”

Eric's house is like a metal fortress, imbued with the icy beauty of metal.

"The inside has been renovated, it's similar to an ordinary house, and as for the appearance, it's actually to make it easier for me to use some materials when I'm doing experiments."

"You're the only one?"

"Yes, I also came through the gap in time and space, so I know what newcomers will encounter, and I also know what it means to have the ability in the beginning."

"I can't wait."

"Then come in, I'll show you around first."

Except for the living room and bedroom, the rest of Eric's house is a laboratory, and those full of futuristic technology-like instruments seem to belong to high-tech products. The instrument to activate the ability is in the basement, because the process of activating the ability needs to eliminate all external interference.

"Hey, man, do you mean I'm going to strip naked and lie down there?"

Wang Yi pointed to a place that was supposed to be a nutrient tank, which was filled with a colorless unknown liquid.

"Yes, you will consume a lot of energy during the activation process, if the energy is not enough to activate your ability smoothly, then you will start to consume life force, these nutrient solutions are specially customized, and it costs me a lot of money. Here, the food in this freezer contains a lot of life force, to prevent you from losing power after activating your ability, and then here, these runes are all meaning [life], from more than thirty different civilizations, and more than half of my secret realm time is spent collecting these things. ”

"Well, looks like you're well prepared."

"Of course, in fact, you are not the first to participate in the experiment, there are thirteen earthlings in front of you who have also activated their abilities, except for the first few who have lost their strength after coming out because of poor consideration, each of the back has completed the activation of their abilities intact, and they are all still alive now, well, most of them are still alive, and a few of them have not come out again after entering the secret realm, maybe they left here, maybe something happened."

"Can you get out of here?"

"Of course! The realm of the end of the world is just one of the floating continents, there are other broken worlds like here, and it is easy to leave, as long as you complete the prescribed tasks of the Explorer Alliance, after all, you can't let people cultivate and provide you with resources for free and then leave without paying at all, and then you can apply to leave if you prepare enough money yourself, of course, if you find other ways, you can also leave by yourself. ”

"Well, that sounds reasonable. Can you tell me what abilities those people activated before? ”

"Hmm...... Most of them are to strengthen a certain aspect of the body, such as running very fast, recovering very strong, or infinitely powerful, and there are a few that activate the ability to manipulate energy, such as fire, frost, etc., of course, I can't tell you who activated what ability, and I won't tell anyone about your ability. In the future, if I have the opportunity, I can organize a party, after all, we will be brothers after activating the ability. ”

"Understood, so shall we begin?"

"Wait a minute, you need to clean yourself before you start, I mean thoroughly, inside and out. Do you understand what I mean? ”

“…… so？ ”

"The toilet is over there, and I built a toilet in the basement to clean up your body. You go in first, I'll go upstairs and get you a bath towel. ”
