Volume 1: The Choice of Fate Chapter 78. Surprise after waking up

A few days went by almost in a flash......

When Zhang He reopened his eyes from the medical recovery warehouse, it had been several days since he had competed with Zhuang Xu.

Silently raising his palm, Zhang He gently tapped the glass in front of him, at this moment he was wearing an oxygen mask, and his whole body was soaked in nutrient recovery solution, he knew that this was the fastest way to recover from trauma.

Looking at the flesh and blood that had regrown on his left arm, a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of Zhang He's mouth hidden under the oxygen mask.

His left arm was as if it had not been injured at all, and it was recovering very well, and more importantly, during the three-day recovery cycle, Zhang He's body perfectly absorbed a large amount of nutrient solution.

So now Zhang He not only doesn't feel hungry, but even has an inexhaustible strength in his body.

With a 'tick' sound of mechanical air pressure, Zhang He clearly felt that the nutrient solution around him was being pumped away, and then when he felt that his feet could stand at the bottom again, the glass door of the nutrition bin slowly rose.

"Now that you're awake, come out on your own, aren't you still waiting for the nurse to take care of you? Or are you waiting for my sister to take care of you? In another room of the laboratory, Mu Chen's voice came.

Holding on to the edge of the warehouse, Zhang He slowly walked out of the medical warehouse, his whole body was almost naked, and he was only covered in key parts.

After coming out, feeling a cold breeze on his body, Zhang He subconsciously shivered, and then picked up the clothes that had been prepared on the table and quickly put them on his body.

Immediately, he slowly walked to the room where Mu Chen was, but found that he was engrossed in staring at an electronic report, and even if he found out about Zhang He's arrival, he only raised his eyes slightly.

"The third district has just been established, and you and Zhuang Xu have made such a big mess for me, I don't know what to say about you, do you think that you have given me a research direction, and you need me to clean up the mess for you?"

Hearing what Mu Chen said, an embarrassed smile appeared on Zhang He's face, but he didn't know what to say.

It is undeniable that the current Zhang He also feels a trace of regret for recklessly going to Zhuang Xu to learn from him, but what kind of strength does he have for his right arm?

Zhang He was also full of doubts, although the result of the final battle was a bit big, but the attack and defense ability of the right arm, Zhang He also gained some intuitive feelings.

Thinking back to the explosive power of the fireball condensed by Zhuang Xu at the beginning, Zhang He had a deeper understanding of elemental control, especially when he thought of the eve of the explosion.

At that time, in order to be able to affect the falling fireball as soon as possible, Zhang He even did not hesitate to be injured, and he desperately urged the ability on his eyes to alienate, which led to a large amount of congestion in his eyes.

That's because the capillaries can't withstand the rapid transmission of energy because of their own impatience, and they are close enough to be burst, if not for the phagore's strong recovery ability.

If you were an ordinary person, you would be completely blind when facing Zhang He.

"Can you put away your appearance of pretending to be a grandson, I heard from my sister's mouth, you took the initiative to invite Zhuang Xu to learn, and you were the one who detonated the fireball in the end!" Mu Chen glanced at Zhang He coldly and said.

Although there was a sense of accountability in his words, Zhang He didn't see any angry expression on Mu Chen's face, so he hesitated for a few seconds and said, "It's good to blame me for everything that has happened, but through this exchange, my gains are not small!" ”

It seems that Zhang He's words successfully aroused Mu Chen's interest.

I saw that after he put the electronic report aside, he clasped his hands to his chest, and a slightly interested expression rose on his face: "Let's talk about it, if it is really valuable, then the maintenance costs after this exchange will be counted as a public account, if there is no value, you will solve the debt by yourself!" ”

Hearing Mu Chen's words, Zhang He's face showed a wry smile of embarrassment, and then he swallowed his saliva and fell into deep thought......

Although he didn't know whether Mu Chen's words were true or false, after all, it was he who made the mistake, so Zhang He didn't dare to deal with it too sloppily.

After all, compared with the past, Mu Chen now is naturally incomparable, and the change of identity and status will invisibly add a lot of things that affect the aura.

At this time, on Mu Chen's body, although he put on a relaxed appearance, Zhang He still felt a trace of nervousness in his heart.

There was silence for more than ten seconds, and just as Mu Chen's brows wrinkled slightly, Zhang He took a deep breath and said, "My right arm and right shoulder can be summed up in two levels: attack and defense in the process of this fight!" ”

"The first is the attack ability, in the case of using the power of runes, the right arm can drive the air flow to form a more violent attack method, and its power is not inferior to the power of Zhuang Xu's final fireball explosion, which you have already seen in the first laboratory outbreak!"

"But it's a pity that in the process of fighting, Zhuang Xu never gave me a chance to get close, so he didn't test out the specific attack power!" Zhang He seemed to feel sincerely sorry, and after finishing speaking, he didn't forget to shake his head regretfully, saying that he was also helpless.

However, when Mu Chen saw Zhang He like this, his eyebrows slightly aggravated the original wrinkle, although he didn't say anything, but Zhang He, who saw Mu Chen's expression, obviously swallowed his saliva and hurriedly switched to the next topic.

"Let's talk about defense! In the process of fighting, my right arm can prevent Zhuang Xu's continuous explosion, and Zhuang Xu's flame slash released at the end can only cut through the epidermis! ”

It seemed that what Zhang He said this time aroused Mu Chen's interest, and he asked with a little confusion: "Are you saying that Zhuang Xu's flame slash can only create very shallow scars?" ”

Nodding slightly, Zhang He added: "Very shallow typhoid fever, no bleeding!" ”

It's just that a serious expression rose on Mu Chen's face next: "Although Zhuang Xu's flame slash is not his most powerful move, it can easily tear the body of a 2-meter-level abyss beast, and it can be called a cannon fodder harvester on the front line!" ”

Hearing what Mu Chen said, Zhang He thought back to the 2-meter-level abyssal beast he had seen in the dungeon at the beginning, and had a clear contrast in his heart.

"If you use defense to push back, then with the power that my right arm can burst out, I must be able to easily break through the armor on the body of at least a 2-meter abyss beast!" Zhang He said softly.

As if agreeing with Zhang He's statement, Mu Chen suddenly had a strange smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "Is there anything else?" That's not enough data to make me pay! ”

Seeing Mu Chen's expression, Zhang He subconsciously smiled bitterly: "I don't know if you already know it, but for the situation of your right arm and right shoulder this time, I found that the power of runes is a bit like a battery for me?" ”

Raising his brows slightly, Mu Chen showed an expression of some interest.

This seemed to be a great encouragement to Zhang He, and then Zhang He pondered for a few seconds, and began to try his best to recall the situation at that time, and at the same time, he was also silently feeling the power of the runes in his right arm.

However, after this attempt to awaken, the power of the runes on his right arm did not seem to respond.

"I can't sense the power of the runes on my right arm now, after absorbing the complete source spirit crystal, as long as I consciously think of the power of the runes, my right arm will give me a clear feedback, but now this feedback has completely disappeared!" Zhang He said with a slight frown.

It seemed that he already knew what Zhang He was going to say, Mu Chen nodded slightly and said, "On the way you were sent, Xiaoxiao said that since you fell into a coma, your right arm and right shoulder have turned into hot steam and disappeared on their own!" If you follow what you just said, it seems that the relationship between battery and power is just verified! ”

"Are you saying that my runic power is now in a state of empty electricity?" Zhang He asked suspiciously.

"Judging from your previous situation, it seems that this is the case, and at the same time, I did several sampling analyses of your blood while you were in a coma! Judging by the last result you just woke up, there is a noticeable cycle of change in the alienated cells on your right arm! After Mu Chen finished speaking, his finger tapped the electronic report on the desktop next to him.

Raising his eyebrows curiously, Zhang He didn't answer, but just responded to Mu Chen with an expression, obviously very interested in his test results.

Knowing that Zhang He cared very much about the power of his runes, Mu Chen didn't seem to have any intention of hiding anything from him, and continued: "At the beginning of your coma, the alienated cells on your right arm fell into a completely dormant state, but the strange thing is that with your recovery, almost every day, the alienated cells in your body will produce some changes! ”

"If you compare the alienated cells in the cooled dormant state to stones, then during your recovery stage, a large number of cracks have been produced on these stones, and this time before your recovery, the analysis results of the alienated cells showed that the cooling layer on their surface similar to the stone wall has completely disappeared, but they all show a state of weak sexual activity! Commonly known as weakness! ”

Hearing what Mu Chen said, Zhang He took a deep breath and said, "You mean that the alienated cells will make adaptation adjustments according to my physical condition, right?" ”

Nodding slightly, Mu Chen's face rose with a trace of regret and said, "Do you remember the blood I obtained after you disrupted the laboratory?" It turns out that the alienated cells in your body will become inactive and die within 24 hours of leaving your body! ”

"In other words, whether the alienated cells under the power of the runes can be recharged and reused, or even remain active, completely depends on whether they are in my body?"

"That's right, and it can't be transferred at all, I once injected the alienated cells into the body of the experimental white mice, but it did not cause any changes and effects, and more importantly, after 24 hours, these injected alienated cells will disintegrate and disappear on their own."

Zhang He, who took a deep breath, felt a slight headache, at this moment he recalled the scenes in the spiritual world, and there was no special feeling at that time.

But now that I think about it, this mysterious runic power seems to have some kind of activity, and even now, it seems that it has become its only host.

But the strange thing is that the power of the rune has already shown its activity when it encounters the source spirit crystal, after all, it was controlling Zhang He's arm that had already developed a bone crack, and took the initiative to absorb it.

However, no matter how much Zhang He tried to communicate with the power of runes in his heart, he didn't have any response, which was what made Zhang He doubt the most.

In fact, for the power of runes that he suddenly obtained, Zhang Heda really didn't mind whether the other party would have a certain consciousness deep down, but the premise was to be able to communicate with this consciousness, otherwise facing a complete unknown, this is the most worrying and frightening place.

It's just that just as Zhang He was in deep thought, Mu Chen suddenly interrupted his train of thought and said softly: "This reckless exchange behavior, I don't want to have a next time, it's not impossible to learn, but you must control the heat!" Also, you've been recovering from the medical chamber for almost a week, and tomorrow is the day of the joint exam for the three of you, so I think you still need to prepare a little bit! ”

For that exam, in fact, Zhang He's psychology didn't feel that there was anything worth caring about, after all, among all the candidates, the only few people he cared about were injected with the second-generation strong base element brought by Mu Chen, and the improvement of his strength would be obvious.

In other words, tomorrow will not be a special situation for Zhang He's candidate team, and the championship is almost a certainty.

After shrugging his shoulders indifferently, Zhang He asked softly, "We have all joined the third district, so do you have any instructions from the leader?" ”

Hearing Zhang He's words, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of Mu Chen's mouth and said, "Instructions? I can't talk about it, but you weren't allowed to show the ability of Devourer on test day, and besides, I forgot to tell you that because the three teams of Candidates are trained separately, there are some of your former classmates in Teal Academy! ”

Accompanied by Mu Chen's words, Zhang He was stunned, because when he first entered the Devourer Base, although Chi Jiufeng did not say it explicitly, he strictly required himself to wear an eye patch when he was outside, and activated the function of hiding his identity.

But in the past month or so in the Devourer Base, Zhang He has not seen any acquaintances, and over time, he has relaxed his vigilance.

However, today, Mu Chen's words gave Zhang He an 'unexpected surprise!' ’。
