Chapter 216: Reward
On this summer day, Four Seasons City was swept away by a rain shower.
The rain dissipated the tension that permeated the city, it came and went quickly, and when the rain was over, the police officers and black trench coats who maintained order in the administrative department received an order from the governor of Central and South China to remove the danger.
So the great crowd of citizens returned to their homes.
The danger did not spread, everything was like a dangerous drill, the scope of the battle was always firmly locked on the hill of the thirteenth vent in the suburbs, and it did not escape, for the city, and the vast majority of the people on this continent, they did not know the details, let alone what a high-scale battle had broken out around them.
The Governor of Central South apparently did not explain the situation to the people, creating a useless panic idea, and in the TV news program of the day, only the host lightly said that "the transcendent criminals have been punished", and the few people in the city speculated that things were not so simple.
Whether it was the strong fluctuation of magic power or the brief conversation that spread from the suburbs, it meant that the incident was extraordinary, and some even speculated that the voice in the sky came from a high-level transcendent, even if they had never seen a high-level action in person.
In addition, two figures quietly disappeared from the returning crowd.
Huaxi took Ning Meng and left under the guidance of Songyu, who was in charge of finding an excuse to make everything seem less abrupt.
In fact, whether it is No. 1 Middle School or Starry Sky High School, almost no one will associate today's battle with a pair of teenage siblings.
The dust has settled.
Lin Tuo also left the old street, stepped into the Four Seasons City Administration Hall building for the first time, and saw the least injured in the largest conference room, returning to Mount Sinai from the vent:
“…… The target has been locked in the core of the forbidden cage, with four high-level transcendents stationed there, and General Tru and Dean Qiu are currently recuperating from their injuries before returning to the front line of the Northern Continent......
The entire vent area has been cordoned off for martial law.
A team of scientists has already departed from the Capital Region, and the first group of scholars will arrive no later than dark tomorrow to set up laboratories in the vents to analyze the objectives according to your requirements. ”
Across the desk? Lin Tuo, dressed as an ordinary person, quietly listened to Mount Sinai's narration? Nodding.
The one-eyed giant was successfully captured after being exhausted of his strength, which made Lin Tuo himself excited? Although this may result in the loss of an opportunity to access the "source of spirituality"? But compared to the research value brought by this spiritual creature, Lin Tuo thinks? The price is well worth it.
Whether it's him, or the mages and scholars of this world? Lack of knowledge of the spirit world? The latter, in particular, has never seen the real spiritual world, and all theoretical conjectures remain on paper and experiments.
This time to have the opportunity to obtain such valuable materials, the mages and scholars of the entire capital were eager to put on their wings and fly over.
Lin Tuo is not ready to meddle? After all, his own family knows his own affairs.
Is it okay to let him attack? But the research is not done.
And he didn't hide his curiosity about the creatures of the spirit world, which did not damage his image as an observer, and the sword move to defeat the one-eyed giant had already established absolute authority.
As for torturing the Cyclops...... This is also part of the "research", and Lin Tuo does not feel that he can do better than others.
Moreover, not showing up on your own may provide some additional deterrent.
"Good? I'll leave the research work to you here, and I'll come back from time to time to find out about the situation. Lin Tuo praised two sentences? Immediately the topic changed and asked? "How's that Ning Li?"
Just like Lin Tuo's judgment, Ning Li didn't really die? Maybe the one-eyed giant came in a hurry? Don't have time to kill him? Or maybe you want to keep him so that you can use it to learn more.
In short, after he escaped and was blocked, Ning Li regained control of his body, but his spirit seemed to be shocked and he fainted, and Lin Tuo ordered the black trench coats to take away the treatment and check after inspecting it.
Not surprisingly, Mount Sinai replied:
"He is in stable condition, has woken up not long ago and is currently in the hospital ward.
While he was unconscious, we also tried to conduct a detailed examination and questioned him when he woke up...... Here is the specific report. ”
As she spoke, she handed over a document, but her expression was a little strange.
Lin Tuo glanced at her, opened the document and began to read, and after a while, his eyebrows raised, which was really a little surprised.
The information about his abilities and the experience of being entangled by the one-eyed giant is basically the same as Ning Meng's confession, but some details are clearer.
Lin Tuo also determined that Ning Li could indeed enter the spiritual realm from consciousness, and unlike the inhuman realm, the channel in Ning Li's spirit was always open.
You must know that after Lin Tuo broke through the realm, even if he tried to forcibly light up the meridians in his body again, he would not be able to manifest that light door again.
The same description is also found in the Heavenly Dao Scroll and the Demon Scriptures.
And Ning Li ...... Judging from the level of physical evolution, the degree of his body quenching is not high, let alone the inhuman realm......
Of course, the focus of different worlds is different, and the transcendents of the North and South Continents do not pay much attention to the strength of their bodies, but are proficient in magic.
In the process of the evolution of the times, compared to using "magic power" to temper their physique, they focused more on tempering their spiritual power, condensing runes, and leveraging magic power to show their strength.
According to this report, Ning Li's spiritual power is exceptionally high......
"Talent? Or is it an ability? Lin Tuo was puzzled in his heart, and his understanding of "spiritual power" was extremely limited.
If the "ether" originates from the spiritual world, then the so-called "spiritual power" is closer to the power possessed by intelligent life itself.
Referring to the knowledge system of the North and South Continents, Lin Tuo felt that this thing was a bit similar to the setting of divine soul strength.
There is a certain degree of positive correlation with the strength of the body.
It's like after he entered the inhuman realm, his spiritual power has increased a lot, and the most obvious manifestation is that the time to open the illusion space and the ability to construct illusions are stronger.
There is also a certain improvement in the quenching environment, but the magnitude is smaller, which is reflected in the further reduction of the required sleep time.
In the transcendent system of the North and South Continents, people's spiritual power is limited by talent, some people are naturally strong, and some are weak...... In fact, it is the growth of mental power that comes with the process of quenching.
Nothing new.
As for the method of tempering spiritual power alone...... They didn't work it out.
Mount Sinai, Autumn Dean...... Even the high-level transcendents such as Hathaway in the past were themselves extremely gifted in spiritual power.
And Ning Li ...... It is even possible to absorb power from the spiritual realm and grow it......
"Could it be that spiritual power can also be obtained from the spirit realm?"
Suddenly, Lin Tuo suddenly remembered the last time he turned on the "Resurrection" ability, and saw the souls of those dead people flying into the air and disappearing.
"And ...... I also suspected before that Hongchen's behavior of experiencing it was likely to be related to spiritual power. ”
Holding the report, Lin Tuo fell into deep thought, but he had no clue for a while...... Perhaps, that spirit life can give the answer, but it is not in a hurry.
Mount Sinai, who was wearing a black trench coat next to him, saw him pondering, and did not dare to disturb, only to see Lin Tuo come back to his senses after a while, smiled at her, and said:
"You're doing a good job, as for Ning Li...... His abilities are very special and valuable, and I think your research institute can have some cooperation with him appropriately.
Whether it's to prevent subsequent dangers, or for his own safety...... In a gentle way. ”
Mount Sinai tasted Hayashi Taku's words, nodded and said:
"I understand, don't worry, this incident is not his responsibility, we communicated with him after he woke up, and he agreed to cooperate with us in a deeper exploration."
Speaking of this, Mount Sinai suddenly laughed and said:
"The kid was very nervous and asked if our people were going to slice him...... I really don't know what kids are thinking these days. ”
Lin Tuo also laughed, but muttered in his heart:
I was so worried when I got the sand table......
"Do you want to meet him?" Mount Sinai paused, remembered something, and asked.
Lin Tuo thought about it, shook his head and said:
"Forget it, let's see you next time I have a chance, let him rest in peace."
After speaking, Lin Tuo suddenly sensed something and said:
"That's it, you go and get busy."
"Yes." Mount Sinai also heard footsteps outside the door, turned around and opened the door, smiled at Huaxi who was standing outside the door, and left.
Seeing that the woman in the black trench coat was gone, Huaxi wrinkled her nose imperceptibly, and then walked into the conference room with her schoolbag on her back.
As soon as the door closed, her schoolbag squirmed, and a crystal ball sprang out of itself, falling to the ground, and Hathaway's voice was heard:
"It's suffocating me."
Lin Tuo ignored her, looked at Huaxi, pointed to the chair, and asked, "How is Ning Meng?" ”
Huaxi walked over, pulled out a chair and sat down, and then said:
"Fortunately, at first, the whole person was depressed, as if he had been hit hard.
Later, I heard that his brother was still alive, so it was fine, I just sent her to the ward where Ning Li was, and there was someone guarding it, and the brother and sister were probably enjoying their families. ”
Lin Tuo was silent, thinking that this idiom didn't seem to be wrong, but why did it always feel weird......
Shaking his head, he stretched and glanced at Huaxi:
"What's wrong? Looks sullen. ”
Huaxi glanced at him, her cheeks bulged, and before she could speak, Hathaway under her feet spoke as if she was forced:
"Hey, I'm sad, the little girl Ning Meng knows that the two of you are working together to deceive others, what kind of good face can you have?"
Huaxi glanced at her, swayed on the chair, and kicked the crystal ball abruptly with her right foot in white silk, which provoked Hathaway to scold angrily, and Lin Tuo's heart moved, and finally understood.
For Huaxi, these few days are the first time she has gone to school in her life, and Ning Meng is also her first classmate and friend...... Now that the truth is revealed, there must be some estrangement between the two little girls......
Thinking of this, Lin Tuo raised his hand and touched his head to kill, Huaxi's face was slightly red, and then he heard Lin Tuo say softly:
"You did a good job on this mission, what kind of gift do you want as a reward? I'll buy it for you when I get home. ”
Huaxi blinked, hesitated, and said, "Anything?" ”
“…… Let's talk about it first? ”
Huaxi sniffed, thought for a while, and suddenly said, "That...... I want one more task. ”
