Chapter Thirty-Nine: Devouring Now
When Li Li opened his eyes again, he was already lying in the room of the Chenjiagou temporary outpost, the iron ceiling was imprinted into his eyes, and when he turned his head, he saw a few people sitting next to him, talking in a whisper, these people were members of the ninth squad.
"Team Li, you're awake." Huang Tianqiang, who was talking, was facing Li Li, and was the first to find that Li Li woke up, Luo Xiao and the others hurriedly surrounded him, with a look of concern and awe on their faces.
Li Li saw everyone coming around, smiled slightly, and before he could say anything, Luo Xiao asked curiously: "Team Li, what level of master are you?" ”
Hearing Luo Xiao's inquiry, Li Li was stunned, Luo Xiao mistakenly thought that Li Li was afraid of exposing his true strength, and said with a sneer: "Team Li, you can tell the brothers the truth!" Rest assured, brother won't tell anyone else. ”
Only then did Li Li react to Luo Xiao's meaning, struggled a few times, and with the help of Huang Tianqiang, he slowly sat up, glanced at everyone and said, "Before the battle, it was the second order, and now it is the third order." ”
It's no wonder that Luo Xiao misunderstood, even if a third-order master faced the siege of dozens of batbeasts alone, he would only be split in an instant, not to mention that there were a few second-order abilities present at the time, but they were still pressed and beaten by batbeasts, and finally had to frantically ask for help.
"Congratulations to Team Li for advancing to the third order, your combat exploits have been reported, I believe there will be news soon." Wang Wei, who was next to him, heard the news of Li Li's advancement, and said excitedly, you must know that there is a third-order captain who will go out to patrol and collect crystals in the future, which is not only safe and secure, but also has a bullish battle performance all the way.
Huang Tianqiang took out a box and carefully handed it to Li Li and said, "Team Li, this is the purple crystals you obtained by killing the bat beast, a total of 23 crystals. ”
"You take it to the logistics department to exchange it for two evolution liquids and distribute them to the brothers in the team, and by the way, tell the brothers who haven't been distributed that I will collect crystals as soon as possible to help them exchange for evolution liquid." Li Li glanced at the shiny light purple crystals in the box, and did not mean to take them for himself, he had long been not interested in these ordinary crystals, although he also wanted to get the evolution liquid to try the effect, but at present, improving the strength of the entire squad is the key, and when the strength of the squad is improved, it is still worrying that there is no crystallization, and secondly, this is also a good time to buy people's hearts, it can be seen that these elite soldiers are very eager to get the ability, and a good man also needs three helpers, and he also needs a group of loyal subordinates with good strength.
Hearing Li Li's words, Huang Tianqiang held a box full of crystals and hung in the air, and he didn't know what to do for a while, even Luo Xiao, who had always been very arrogant, also showed a rare seriousness, Wang Wei looked at the box with glowing eyes, they understood the value of the evolution liquid too well, and it was also the value of the purple evolution liquid, although the powerful firepower on the front line killed a large number of monsters, but there was no chance to obtain crystals at all, and the crystals of the dead monster's body would disappear naturally in about 24 hours, The return of invisible energy to heaven and earth, and the fact that after the monster dies, its companions will take out the crystals in their bodies and eat them to obtain energy, making it even more difficult to collect the crystals.
This is the most important thing to survive in a special period, only strength can ensure survival, evolution liquid is a shortcut to enhance strength, a team may not collect ten crystals a month, the value of an evolution liquid is self-evident, at least at this stage, the value is extremely huge.
"If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have died on the battlefield, and besides, we are a team, not me alone." Li Li saw the people who were at a loss, and Ma understood their thoughts, and said with a slight smile.
Li Li saw that Huang Tianqiang was still holding the box, and pretended to be displeased and said, "Do you think that the captain's distribution is unfair and you have doubts about my orders?"
"No, no, absolutely not." When everyone heard this, they immediately shook their heads like rattles, and Huang Tianqiang subconsciously took the box back into his arms carefully, as if he cherished the contents of the box.
"Then do as I say." Li Li waved his hand to everyone, the reason why he said this just now was to subtly give them a psychological hint, and his order was unquestionable.
"Yes." Everyone spoke in unison, and then left the room.
Seeing that everyone left, Li Li slowly got out of bed, habitually scanned the surrounding environment with spiritual power, and found that the effective distance of scanning was far more than the 300-meter diameter of the second-order, and now it had reached a terrifying kilometer, and what made him even more curious was that he now had a feeling that he could materialize his spiritual power and influence the objective world with the world of thought.
Li Li came to the window and watched, it was already night, the high-power lights on the watchtowers around the outpost continued to shine back and forth, in the darkness through the snowy pillars of light, the pole lights in the outpost emitted dim lights, and then the lights could vaguely see groups of patrolling soldiers, the patrol of the outpost was 24 hours a day.
There was a pole lamp not far from the window, next to the pole lamp was a lush ginkgo tree, Li Li looked at the ginkgo tree, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and then his expression slowly became serious, staring intently at the nearest green leaf near the window, slowly concentrating all his spiritual power on this leaf, and after a few seconds, the green leaf swayed and suddenly left the branch.
A strange scene appeared, the green leaves were suspended in the air without any support, Li Li slowly stretched out his right hand and spread it, and the green leaves flew towards his palm by the invisible force, and after a while, it landed firmly on his palm.
"Could it be that this is the power of mind, the mental power is strong enough to affect the way the real world is expressed?" Li Li smiled slightly, picked up the green leaf and played with it in his hand, muttering to himself, he had seen some strange anecdotes about telekinesis on the Discovery Channel a long time ago, someone once used telekinesis to cut off a solid iron rod with the thickness of a wrist, and looked at the cross-section of the iron rod through the microscope, and found that there were countless arcs on the cross-section.
Li Li threw down the leaves in his hand, and tested the pole lamp next to the ginkgo tree, he concentrated his mental power on the bulb of the pole lamp, and repeatedly imagined the picture of the bulb being broken, ten seconds passed, twenty seconds, thirty seconds, and the pole lamp did not appear any abnormal,
After a while, Li Li sighed, slowly withdrew his spiritual power, and said to himself, "The influence of the power of reading is too limited. ”
In fact, at the same time as he withdrew his spiritual power, countless cracks had already appeared on the bulb of the pole lamp, which were invisible to the naked eye.
Li Li poured spiritual power into the space ring, and found that the storage space of the space ring in another dimension had become empty, and the substance that originally occupied a small half of the volume of the space ring could now only occupy a corner, and the storage space of the space ring had reached a terrifying 27 cubic meters, becoming a small warehouse.
Li Li said with joy on his face: "In the future, I won't have to worry about having too many things to fit, and the current storage space is almost the size of an empty room." ”
Retracting his mental power from the space ring, at this moment he really wanted to try how much his body's strength and thunder and lightning abilities had increased, but after this battle, both his physical strength and energy were overdrawn, and now he has only recovered a little, just think about it, there are still many opportunities to test in the future.
Li Li took out a light green crystal of a long-tongued reptile from the space ring by the way, and took it to his eyes to observe it carefully, his action was originally an unintentional move, just to try to see if there was a magical scene last time
At this time, the depths of Li Li's pupils suddenly turned pitch black, and his vision suddenly darkened, only a small ball with a flash of light appeared in front of him, and the brightness of this light crystal was far lower than the dark green crystal at the last moment.
After a few seconds, everything returned to normal in front of him, and he saw that this light green crystal melted into Li Li's hand at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, with the last experience, he didn't panic, just watched all this quietly, waiting for this light green crystal to melt into his palm.
After a while, the light-colored crystals were completely integrated into Li Li's palm, and a warm current slowly spread from his hand to his heart, and then from his heart to all parts of his body, and a stream of energy slowly formed in his body, but compared with the dark green crystal last time, this energy difference is too far, maybe the energy contained in the light green crystal is far inferior to the dark green one, or maybe Li Li is now a third-order ability, and the energy that can be accommodated in his body has increased exponentially, so he feels that this energy is not as good as last time.
This energy didn't make him increase by leaps and bounds like last time, breaking through the bottleneck, and he didn't even feel any big changes.
"Huh." Li Li sighed lightly, and he soon found that the originally depleted energy in his body was rapidly recovering, although this recovery speed was not particularly fast, but the energy obtained by resting and digesting food was several times faster.
With this miraculous discovery, Li Li was overjoyed and hurriedly took out one to make the same action, if he could directly convert the energy in the crystal into the energy of the body, this was a very useful shortcut, and he would have a great advantage in the struggle in the future, especially the higher the level, the more obvious.
The key to limiting the battle of high-level abilities is energy, for example, a sixth-order ability can kill a long-tongued reptile with a wave of his hand, but if he falls into the siege of monsters, it is also a dead end, the reason is not that he is invincible, but that the energy in his body is limited, once it is exhausted, then he is the end of the crossbow, and it is not much different from ordinary people, so the end is the same.
The reason why the evolution fluid is precious is because not only ordinary people need the evolution fluid to stimulate their potential to become an ability, but also the ability person, whether it is a low-level ability or a high-level ability, the low-level ability can use the evolution liquid to break through the bottleneck, and the high-level ability can use the evolution liquid as a supplement to energy.
And Li Li's direct devouring of crystals to obtain energy is equivalent to directly injecting the evolution liquid, the only difference is that the process of extracting the evolution liquid from the crystals wastes a lot of energy.
