Chapter 17 Black Scales
Li Tiansheng is the only one who has seen that person but still remembers that person, and he has an indescribable feeling.
When he came out of the library, it was already a little dark outside, and there were one or two people on the street who got up early and jogged in the morning.
It was an ordinary-looking inn that was indeed in operation, but one of the rooms had a secret passage that led to the base underground.
He didn't want to go back to his own residence, and he always felt very uncomfortable staying in that place.
Throwing the contents of his arms on the table, there were still ten days and nine nights before the "Guardian" went to attack the stranger, and on this first night, he harvested both of them.
The first is an ice crystal, which is the most important thing, and only this can make you solid and strong.
Thinking of this, he even laughed himself, no matter what he said, the root of this kind of strength is the gift he received after sacrificing items to the so-called demon, and if the demon is in a bad mood one day and directly withdraws all his power, he may be the one who can't do anything.
Looking at this transparent stone, I need this, and I need a lot.
Of course, this time not only harvested this piece of ice crystal, but also this mysterious book, this book was hidden in a book, inexplicably smashed on his head, now think about it, how incredible, sit well, just fall down, and then the ghost sent the god to open the book, and then took out this book from that book.
Everything was incredible, but in the end the book came into his hands, and the pure white man who turned into a light and dissipated in all directions also remembered it well.
It doesn't seem to be much use to think too much. Shaking his head, he drove the cranky thoughts out of his mind, picked up the ice crystal and ate it directly, and when he digested the last ice crystal, he didn't consume much time, so the most important thing now is to quickly strengthen his strength first, and there is still such a thick stack waiting for him to see.
There are more than twenty flashing bright spots on that monster, and he needs to accumulate at least fifteen, saying that he can't defeat that guy, and even if he accumulates fifteen, he may not be able to win.
And myself, there are less than ten days left.
After eating the ice crystals, just like the previous time, a cold breath slowly sank, keeping himself calm, ready to sense the changes that will be brought about next, otherwise it will be like the eyes last time, even if he doesn't know what happened, it will be too bad.
But it seems to be different.
The heart suddenly beat violently, and I could clearly feel that something was changing, and then, the skin suddenly tightened, and then quickly relaxed, it was an indescribable comfortable feeling, and Li Tiansheng, who was sitting and waiting for the change to end, slid down from the chair as if there were no bones.
It feels weird, but it's not bad, but is this a new ability?
Generally speaking, after using ice crystals, there will be two situations, the first is to enhance the original ability, so that the stronger power is advanced, the element is operated to cause more destructive power, and the special ability limit is weakened or the energy efficiency is increased.
The other is to awaken one of the other abilities, and few people want to acquire multiple abilities.
Although more ability means that you are more comprehensive, and there will be fewer and fewer shortcomings, you will not have any strengths.
If the ability acquired at the beginning is not strengthened, it is only a weak ability, without any basis for enhancement, and can only survive at the bottom forever.
So after watching my whole skin spread down softly, I was a little disappointed.
This disappointment is only for this moment, and the next moment, Li Tiansheng can't think of anything in his mind.
The soft skin suddenly tightened again, and then something, slowly growing outward, and there was a sharp pain all over the body, which could not be explained in words, as if it was burning, and then something gushed out of the skin, and the feeling of just burning turned into a knife cut, like being slashed by someone cutting one's body, extreme pain, completely irresistible pain, and even the consciousness of wanting to persevere was dissipated in the endless severe pain.
Then, in the body, I saw that there were tiny black scales drilled out, one by one, from all over the body, as if some foreign body had appeared from the body.
These scales are pitch black, and the light shines on them, as if entering a pitch-black abyss, such scales grow little by little, until they are completely covered, they stop growing, Li Tiansheng trembled all over, twitching and trembling, at this time he had completely lost consciousness, but subconsciously trembled, his eyes were confused, and he was completely unconscious.
The mysterious book, slowly drifting out some smoke, little by little, gathered, a pure white figure appeared beside him, carefully looking at Li Tiansheng, who was already covered in pitch-black fine scales at this time,
"Is that so?" This empty and blank girl is zero time, she seems to have no weight, floating on Li Tiansheng's head, up and down, looking carefully at it, and then seems to think of something, blowing at Li Tiansheng's forehead, and then the whole body slowly fades away again and disappears.
But for half a minute, Li Tiansheng sat up straight, panting heavily, the severe pain still kept echoing in his brain, although the pain had disappeared, but the pain remaining in his consciousness still gave him the illusion that he was still in pain.
This state lasted for another five minutes, and the first thing Li Tiansheng, who completely controlled his body, did was to look at his watch.
He knew he must have fainted, and he hoped he hadn't wasted too much time.
Only half an hour later?
Immediately aware that something was wrong, he even suspected in his heart that he had passed a whole day, and hurriedly looked at the date, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, he was really only in a coma for thirty minutes.
For a while, he was even a little happy, this inexplicable joy, it only lasted for a short time, and he saw his hand.
It was no longer a pair of human hands, although there was still a little rudimentary form, but the whole was different, the hands became larger, covered with fine black scales, layer by layer, but did not affect the movement, the nails also seemed to have become a little longer, it was a terrible claw, just look at it, you can understand how sharp it is.
He immediately rushed to the nearest mirror, and in the middle of the mirror, it was already a little out of the way a human could be.
The red eyes, the pitch-black scales cover the entire face, the corners of the mouth, the nose and the eyelids, and it should be on the scalp, but the hair is still there, and it doesn't look like a big problem.
He looked at himself like this, at first he had some doubts, as if he didn't know who was in the mirror, but this was only temporary, and then he finally realized that it was himself.
Although the facial features have not changed, the black scales that have been covered on the entire face are intimidating, and even the closest people will be so frightened that they will turn around and leave when they see such a face.
Except for a wry smile, can Li Tiansheng do anything? He couldn't do anything, he looked up at the ceiling, and stared down at his toes, there was no trace of back at all, and his appearance would no longer be considered human.
Looking at the thick stack of materials again, it has become like this, and if there are other things, I must be able to bear it completely.
Fei flipped through these things, the library recommended at the beginning, I had already been there, and I harvested what I wanted to harvest, which was that ice crystal, but what should I do next?
I can only find some reliable ones from these materials.
The legend of the red umbrella, the midnight ghost, the mystery of the jade pendant, the blood wedding dress, Sanssouci Town, one after another, each one seems to be full of danger, but Li Tiansheng currently gives up starting with these things, the main reason is that the distance is too far, if you go, there will not be enough gain, and it will not even be too late to regret it, because the time consumed on the road will be a lot.
After reading it again and again, I finally found a place close enough to me.
"The ghast spirit of the ancient alley. ”
This quest is very detailed, it's not far from here, and it's an hour to walk at most, but it seems to be a little more dangerous.
The strange shadow in this alley seems to be very simple, it seems that it is a prey that can only be in a certain alley, waiting for a bad luck prey to come to him.
At the end of this document, the various speculations about this monster are written in detail, as well as various other situations that have occurred when the ages have tried to unravel the secret.
It's hard to find.,This is the first situation to encounter.,Maybe it's been in the alley for a long time.,It's not always enough.,This characteristic is even the same as the guy who grabbed Yunxin.,So the first thing to be sure of.,It's to be able to find this monster.,That's all the premise.,But this is going to take the initiative to attack.,Maybe as long as it's long enough.,It's going to attack.。
Although it seemed to appear randomly, Li Tiansheng carefully observed the map of that place, as well as the places where other people encountered this so-called strange shadow, and marked them one by one, and he could quickly realize where the other party had grown.
Of course, this is just a hypothesis, and it is not 100% possible to find that shadow.
But I can only try.
This time, no one took him with him, he had to complete the task on his own, unlike the library, which was mysterious but after really understanding it, it didn't seem to be as bad as others thought, and more importantly, there was no information about anyone who died in this library.
But this alley monster is different, four investigators have already died in the deep alley. They are so strong that there is even a team of veterans who already have five ice crystals still alive.
The veteran team was said to have no backhand power, and they died, not even a complete body, and were torn to shreds.
Li Tiansheng knew that his strength was not comparable to those predecessors in any case.
It's just that even if he knew this, Li Tiansheng would still go.
No one had ever seen the shadow in its true face, or more specifically, no living person had ever seen it.
Later, it seems that some high-level personnel were also alarmed, and they wanted to forcibly solve the place, but they found nothing, and not even a shadow was found.
So it became what it is now, sealed in the archives.
Standing up his body, Li Tiansheng completely calmed down his emotions, and just wanted to walk out of the door directly, but he saw his current appearance again, and now he is like this, I am afraid that before I reach the destination, I will be reported as abnormal, and the worst result is that before I get to that place, I will be arrested and carefully studied.
So, he asked for a shirt with a hat and black sunglasses, trying not to show his face out.
He decided to spend half a day at most, to deal with that guy, find new ice crystals, and then in the second half of the day, he could find a new place again, get more ice crystals, and he would become stronger.
He didn't take the mysterious book with him, and left it in the base.
That street was really not far from here, and Li Tiansheng took a big stride, and it didn't take long to walk to that place.
It doesn't look like a place to eat people at all, and it's even very clean, as if people often come here to clean and maintain hygiene. There were a few patterns that seemed to have some kind of power carved into the clean ground, not quite understanding the effect, but seemed to be a good thing.
If you don't think about it so much, or it's useless to think about it too much, if you fail, you will die directly in that place, and if you succeed, you will succeed.
The moment he stepped into the alley, he could feel that something was staring at him without blinking, it was a look full of malice, looking at the food, this look reminded him of the alley where he and Yun Xin had entered in the first place.
At that time, he obviously felt that fleeting malice, but he regarded it as an illusion, if he could have another time, he couldn't let Li Yunxin enter.
It seemed too quiet, and as I walked along the path looking for enemies, it soon became clear that it had completely turned into some kind of labyrinth, and the walls and roads seemed to be moving slowly.
It's completely a maze, Li Tiansheng is still good at this, he is very good at memory and mazes, which is one of his few entertainments, really good at playing.
Carving some marks on the walls, even if the walls can move, as long as you find these marked, you can roughly calculate the movement between the walls.
While I was concentrating on this, I suddenly felt a chill on my shoulder, and a creepy sound. "Ah~~Woo~~"
