Chapter 429: Immortal Bones
Wu Qi's mood at the moment was very complicated. It stands to reason that he swallowed the bone particles that do not transform the bones, and when the body successfully digests the genetic power in the bones, the atavistic power should be improved.
But only if it can be digested successfully. His current life level is only a pseudo-third order in the final analysis. In the normal state, he is the peak of the second order, and after turning on the atavism, he can reach the third order in a short time, and he is definitely weaker in the big level of the third order. To bear the genetic power of a fourth-order life with such a weak body, it is inevitable that there is a sense of uneasiness like a snake swallowing an elephant.
Wu Qi is worried about the side effects, which may be the side effects of being too powerful to swallow up itself, or the side effects caused by pulling out the seedlings.
Wu Qi touched the scales on his eyebrows, and the atavism was still there. He is now terrified, and he does not dare to easily lift the atavism.
There were no other troubles or dangers here, Wu Qi tried to calm himself down and gather his thoughts.
There was indeed a huge risk of swallowing the bones of a fourth-order life, but he and his companions were in a dangerous fallen area, so they didn't have so many choices. At the first opportunity, we must become stronger by any means. And at present, the only way to make yourself stronger is to absorb the blood of third-order lifeforms; If you want to hunt a third-order life, you have to risk your life to get in.
Sometimes the normal road is blocked, and only gambling can gamble an opportunity.
Wu Qi finally came to a conclusion: even if he hadn't swallowed the bone particles unconsciously, there was a high probability that he would still make the same choice after careful consideration.
People are born to yearn for "peace of mind", but sometimes people have to give up "peace of mind", or even go against it. Because this type of person has something heavier on their shoulders, that is, "sense of mission".
As the leader of the first team, Wu Qi must live to protect the "sense of mission" of all the team members.
Wu Qi figured it out, so he patted the bone particles that fell on his trouser leg and stood up. He gripped the hilt of the long knife and pulled it out with all his might. The red energy that had previously overflowed the surface of the long knife had long been retracted, and the entire pitch-black three-foot blade looked unpretentious.
Wu Qi put the long knife back into its sheath, cleaned up the scene, swept the bone particles that fell on the ground into the palm of his hand, and put them into the small box he carried with him. After doing all this quickly, Wu Qi turned around and returned to the place where he came.
Li Fushan was still asleep, and Wu Qi directly dragged Li Fushan back to the entrance of the Gauss Stone Cave, and dragged him into the dark passage on the other side of the cave entrance.
Just drag it here. Wu Qi thought to himself, and then untied the rope that bound Li Fushan's hands and feet, and slapped Li Fushan's face to wake him up.
"Hmm...... Well? Li Fushan opened his eyes with a confused expression, his memory was still stuck in the time when he first entered the Gauss Stone Cave, and suddenly woke up to find himself in a dark passage, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Gone."
Wu Qi walked along the rope that was tied to Li Fushan's wrist and stretched to the other side of the passage. Li Fushan saw that Wu Qi was far away, so he hurriedly got up and followed. There was still a little pain in the back of his neck, and he rubbed it as he ran, but he couldn't remember how he fainted and woke up in the dark passage.
Wu Qi and Li Fushan walked briskly up the stairs to the surface. The pale blue moonlight sprinkled on Wu Qi's face, and the cool mountain breeze rushed towards him. Wu Qi took a breath of fresh air on the surface, feeling like a world away.
My head was still dizzy and swollen, and it didn't get any better. Wu Qi endured the pain in his head, kept a calm expression, and walked straight towards his tent.
Mo Li suddenly walked out halfway, stopped on Wu Qi's way, and asked, "Wu Qi, what are you doing with Li Fushan?" ”
Wu Qi confirmed again that he had indeed withdrawn the scales on his forehead, his obsidian-like eyes suddenly raised, and two streamers reflecting the cold moon flashed in his eyes.
"Get out of the way." Wu Qi opened his lips lightly and indifferently spit out two cold words.
Morley snorted and made a way with a bad face. In the past, it was only his turn to deliberately lose his temper with Wu Qi, but now that feng shui is turning, Wu Qi is also unceremonious to him, and he has nothing to do with Wu Qi.
In fact, Wu Qi didn't deliberately lose his temper with Morley, but he didn't want to pay attention to Morley at all, and there was no need to talk to this guy properly.
All he wanted now was to lay down on the marching blanket in the tent and get a good night's sleep.
Guo Baibai, who was standing not far away, looked at Wu Qi who was walking towards the camp, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Wu Qi's expression management is perfect, and his action posture is not the slightest incongruous. But she just felt that something was wrong, this was a kind of telepathy that had been with people for a long time and had been cultivated over time.
Guo Baibai also has a real "telepathy" ability, but she doesn't want to use it.
Guo Baibai walked up to Wu Qi and said softly, "Do you want to go back to the camp tent to rest?" ”
Wu Qi nodded and didn't say anything. Guo Baibai understood what Wu Qi meant, and if he wanted to say it, he would definitely wait for all the members of the team to have time, and then tell what happened in the underground passage. Now all they had to do was to keep all the miners and soldiers present as suspicious as possible.
"Then I'll go back with you." Guo Baibai's cherry lips came to Wu Qi's ear, and his slender arm hooked Wu Qi's shoulder, and said in a low voice.
In the eyes of others, this kind of behavior is like two ambiguous men and women talking something intimate, and when they go back to the camp together, others will not think that Guo Baibai is taking care of Wu Qi to rest, but will think of crookedness, just like the relationship between Morley and Miranda.
Guo Baibai and Wu Qi returned to the camp side by side, and the others were still stationed at patrol posts. Li Fushan sighed for a while, walked back to his camp tent with a depressed face, walked to the door of the camp, and shouted "Get out" to the soldier guarding the camp, so frightened that the soldier jumped and hid to the side.
The mining area was silent at night, and there were no large plague species attacking. Occasionally, a plague or two came and were killed by Gao Yuan, who was looking out for a thermal scope before they could get close to the edge of the mine.
The escort mission has reached the final stage, and their "black horse" has become the core combat force of the escort team, and Gao Yuan and others no longer hide their strength, and they show their skills in front of the defense line.
On the other side, in the camp where Wu Qi and his party were.
Wu Qi walked into the camp tent, slowly walked to his marching blanket, and sat down cross-legged. Guo Baibai closed the curtain and was about to speak, when Wu Qi suddenly unbuttoned the soldier's uniform, took off his shirt, and revealed his beauty. A sense of firm muscles.
"Wu Qi?" Guo Baibai's tone changed slightly. She knew from the bottom of her heart what kind of person Wu Qi was, but she still couldn't help but think about it.
