"Training? How to practice? Chief Yan was puzzled.

"Mainly against mutants, now the rat swarm outside the defense area has been repelled by us once, and they will not take the initiative to attack again in a short time, they are the best targets for mutants to train."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they obviously felt that this method was feasible.

"Then it's decided, after today, start training." Chief Yan made a conclusion, and the others had no opinion.

"Chief."

Outside the office door, Assistant Zhang's voice came.

"Come in."

After Assistant Zhang entered the door, he nodded to everyone, said hello, and then glanced at the paper in his hand and said slowly:

"The casualty statistics are out, this defensive battle, a total of 302 soldiers killed and 218 wounded; The mutants were 53 killed, 87 wounded, and 40 missing; 0 civilian casualties. ”

After Assistant Zhang finished speaking, the atmosphere was suddenly silent, everyone was depressed, and what they didn't want to face finally came.

"Go on." Chief Yan broke the silence and tried to ease the atmosphere.

"According to incomplete statistics, we have killed a total of about 2,500 mutant giant rats, one of which is a mutant rat king; Another 118 rat kings and countless mutant rats have been scattered and hidden on the outskirts of the city. ”

"So many rat kings?" Poplar frowned, if there is still a room for the rat king to devour and grow, then it will be a big trouble, fortunately he is decisive and takes the initiative to attack fast enough, otherwise the situation may be even worse.

"I can't wait, I have to try to use this purple gas crystal as soon as possible, and then I'll go." Poplar made up his mind in his heart.

"Let's settle the families of the dead and settle the follow-up matters, and properly settle the wounded." Chief Yan sighed and said.

"Yes, let's do it. In addition, the battlefield has been basically cleaned, and the corpses of the mutant rats ordered by Advisor Bai have been collected and transported, and the transport vehicles are on standby outside. ”

"Temporarily find a place to set up a quarantine area, and put it there first. Old Jiang, you can take someone to deal with it later. Chief Yan turned his head to Jiang Lao and said.

"Alas, I do all the dirty work." Jiang Lao shook his head helplessly.

"Elder Jiang, this is a good thing, we can at least figure out the probability of producing this purple crystal one step ahead." Poplar comforted.

"Good boy, do you know me?" Jiang Lao scolded with a smile, "I don't have enough manpower, you let some mutants help, you have a lot of strength and are easy to do." "Jiang Lao didn't let go of the poplar either.

"It's a trivial matter, but I have to concentrate on studying this purple crystal, so I won't be with you. Also, don't touch the crystals with your bare hands until you figure them out. ”

Poplar perfectly avoided this opportunity to work as a coolie.

"Elder Jiang, let's go with you, Poplar he..."

"I know, girl. Alas, before he got married, he spoke for him again and again, Lao Zhou, the woman is not left. ”

Without waiting for Liu Yuting to finish speaking, Jiang Lao began to shake his head and sigh, and teased him out of tune.

"Elder Jiang!" Liu Yuting stomped her feet angrily, and then looked at Chief Zhou on the side for help.

Chief Zhou pretended not to hear, looking left and right and looking at others, and had no intention of helping at all.

Poplar secretly stole joy in his heart, these old guys will really give themselves god assists, this favor he Poplar has written down today.

Later, Poplar designated ten team members through the walkie-talkie to assist Jiang Lao, although they were doing hard work, but those mutants felt honored, and couldn't wait to rush back from the defense line and join the team of opening rat brains.

Poplar, on the other hand, found a quiet room in the command center and began to use the purple gas crystal.

"How do I use it?" Poplar thought about it, but the ancestor didn't teach him how to use it.

"Do you want to eat it, or cut it into slices, add some ingredients and stir-fry it, and it's easy to eat." Poplar's expression was extremely serious.

After thinking about it for a long time, I still haven't figured out how to eat it, stir-fry, steam, and salad...... After thinking of countless cooking methods, Poplar decided to get started directly.

Completely peeling off the wrapped clothes, the purple light overflowing with purple gas crystals was even worse, illuminating the entire room as if a purple neon light had been turned on, which was very gorgeous and beautiful.

"Let's get started."

Poplar slowly moved his hand to the top of the crystal, his fingers moved slightly, and he was a little hesitant at first, but he immediately made up his mind, and his five fingers lightly rested on the surface of the crystal.

Just as Poplar was ready for some unknowable change, he found that nothing had happened, and there was a warm feeling between the touch of his palm and the crystal, and there was nothing unusual other than that.

Do you really want him to swallow it? Like those mutated mice?

Although Poplar didn't want to be so simple and rude, it seemed that there was only one feasible way at the moment, so he could only grit his teeth, pick up the crystal and send it to his mouth.

But as Poplar moved the crystal closer to his abdomen, he paused for a moment, then he took the crystal farther away, and then brought it closer, and so on several times, and his eyes gradually brightened.

Because he felt that when the crystal was close to his abdomen, there was a faint suction, slowly pulling the energy on the surface of the crystal, pulling it into the lower dantian in the abdomen.

"Is that how it works? But the suction power is too small, and I don't know how long it will be absorbed. ”

Poplar was puzzled, but the next moment he seemed to think of something, and began to enter a meditative state directly.

Meditating on the mind, retreating into meditation, the purple qi from the outside world and the product of the mixture of oxygen and purple qi are continuously inhaled into the body.

However, in addition to this, there was a wisp of energy that was not weaker than the first two at all, and it was also surging towards the position of the belly dantian, and this source was the purple crystal in Bai Yang's hand.

Poplar Daxi, it seems that he has really found the right way, the cultivation methods of mutated creatures and human bodies are different, and the way of refining this crystal is naturally different.

Immediately, the poplar completely attached the crystal to the position of the dantian in the abdomen, and came into close contact, and suddenly felt that the suction increased greatly, and the crystal was slowly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the purple crystals on its surface turned into extremely tiny energy particles, which passed through the skin and flesh of the poplar like smoke, and then penetrated into the black hole of the lower dantian and entered the dantian space.

This absorption speed can be called terrifying.

After entering the dantian, the purple energy still turned into a liquid form and merged into the sphere in the center of space.

And at the same time of absorption, Poplar also found that due to the too fierce energy torrent entering, the black hole in the lower dantian faintly had a sense of expansion, which was obviously to continue the rhythm of expansion.

In the past, when Aspen wanted to expand this black hole, it took a lot of effort and a long time to expand it.

Now with this purple crystal, not only can it quickly increase the foundation in the dantian, but it can also expand the range of the black hole like pulling out the seedlings, so it is really a double win.

No, if the dantian continued to have this kind of energy supply, then he could completely peel off more purple qi to open up cultivation for the Heavenly Eye, and that would kill three birds with one stone.

Poplar was excited in his heart, this purple crystal was really a good medicine to quickly improve his strength.

Half an hour later, the purple crystals had been completely devoured by the dantian.

At this time, the purple sphere in the dantian was significantly larger than the original volume, and the size of the black hole outside the dantian was also much larger.

"Today's half an hour is worth the results of a few days of usual cultivation." Bai Yang's heart is full of joy, it seems that if he wants to quickly improve his strength in the future, in addition to his daily cultivation, he must continue to absorb this crystal to refine.

"The ancestor is finally reliable once."

However, when Bai Yang was happy, he did not realize that along with those energies entering his body, there was something invisible, intangible, and indescribable.

After this kind of thing entered Poplar's body, it seemed to be consciously and quickly hidden, making it even more difficult for people to detect.

"That's it." Poplar woke up from meditation, took a deep breath and stretched, stood up and walked out, the next thing is to really show his skills.

Out of the command center building, Poplar immediately smelled a strong smell of blood, mixed with a fishy smell, and the smell was still somewhat familiar.

"It's the smell of mutant rats." Poplar suddenly, and then looked for the smell and came to a relatively open square, which was surrounded by a temporary simple fence at this time, which was where Jiang Lao and the others disposed of the rat corpse.

Poplar came to the entrance, and the guard at the entrance was obviously familiar with Poplar, and took the initiative to open the door for him to let him go.

After entering, the pungent smell of blood was even stronger, much stronger than when fighting the rat tide before.

Poplar pinched her nose, trying to make herself feel better, and then saw a figure in a yellow one-piece chemical protective suit approaching, apparently a woman, because even the slightly puffy chemical protective suit could not cover her slender body with a convex and backward posture.

The person who came was fully armed, only two eye sockets were exposed, the big bright eyes were staring directly at the poplar, and the faint beauty mole under the left eye was also revealed.

"What are you doing stupidly, come and help." Liu Yuting's urn voice came from the chemical protection suit, "Follow me to change clothes." ”

"Okay Minions." Poplar quipped.

After a while, Bai Yang changed his clothes and joined Jiang Lao and the others, and then he saw two hill-like piles of mutant rat corpses in the center of the square.

At a glance, Bai Yang recognized the fat figure in the crowd who was breaking the rat's brain with his bare hands, and the chemical protective suit that ordinary people were wearing and still had room left on him became a tight-fitting jumpsuit, like a large Teletubbies.

"Elder Jiang, how's it going?" Poplar asked.

"I got more than 1,200 of them, almost half of them, and about 400 of them can produce crystals." Jiang Lao replied.

"The odds are good." Poplar nodded with satisfaction, if it goes on like this, there will be 800 crystals, and the output is considerable.

At this time, the poplar is very much like a farmer planting in a field, looking at the scene of a harvest below, and there is a flash of joy in his heart that cannot be concealed.
