Seeing Li De's attitude, Mary was stunned for a moment. This kid usually ignores himself, and he is not lightly angry, is he really drinking too much tonight? How does it feel weird?

Li De also thought about it, if Mary goes on like this, what will Karin do? No! Karin is getting married!

Thinking that Karin was going to get married, Li De felt depressed again, and his face also fell.

Seeing Li De's bitter gourd face restored, Mary felt a little normal. But at the same time, it seems to be very reminiscent of Li De's smile just now.

"How could I have such an idea? I haven't figured out what this guy is yet, but what is his mood now? Mary thought to herself, and she shook her head, trying to drive the image of Li De out of her head.

Without further conversation, both of them went back to their respective bedrooms. Li De's mind was still full of the words of the Pulloman named Eugene just now. The mysterious organization, the ancient prophecies, and the fact that they seem to know about their father. Is the father also one of them?

I couldn't figure it out, so I just gave up and continued to think about it. At the same time, Goth also believes that the most important thing now is to improve his strength, and only when his strength reaches a certain level can he explore those secrets. Thinking of this, Li De returned to the dormitory, and after washing up, he entered the cultivation of soul arts.

Every night, Li De first practiced soul arts. The way he practiced soul art was to observe the frescoes copied in the temple, and at the same time use his soul energy to imitate the patterns and shapes in the murals. At first, Reed didn't react to the murals. However, when he began to imitate the patterns and shapes in the mural, he felt dizzy at first, but then slowly he got used to it, and he just felt a little dizzy. At the same time, his soul energy was slowly accumulating.

However, the current slow growth rate can no longer meet Li De's requirements. He needs to find a better way to improve his abilities faster. Lide asked Goth, who was silent for a long time, as if thinking about something. Then, it was officially said: "There is a way to grow quickly, but it will be painful and a little risky." ”

"Okay! Old fellow, you really have a way. Say, how? ”

"You can use soul stones to absorb the souls of the dead, and then use soul magic to refine and absorb them and become your own soul energy. But this refining process will be quite painful, and if it is not properly controlled, it may be taken away by others. Goth said.

"How painful?"

"It depends on how powerful the soul of the person you devour is. Because that will be the process of you devouring other souls with your soul, if the object of devouring is too weak and has no effect, if it is too strong, then you may be directly erased by his soul. Are you really willing to try? ”

"Hmmm! How many souls were there in the soul stone before, right? The souls of those who were killed by me last time, and the souls of those dead Union soldiers from the last operation. Li De asked, the situation inside the soul stone, Goth knows best. The last time he attacked the federal base, he collected at least a few hundred souls in it, and although Goth felt that the quality of those souls was not high, but there were hundreds of them, he was still quite satisfied.

"I use some soul refining energy to replenish myself, as well as your daily needs of Eva and Ciri. Now there are more than 800 souls to give you, these souls are not very powerful, they can be used to learn, try to devour! ”

"Okay! I'll give it a try! Li De said decisively. What he is craving now is power, and he wants to increase his strength quickly.

"Okay, let's practice first. I'm here to tell you how to devour souls. With that, Gothic told him about the ability to read the soul through a set of methods for the use of soul power. When Li De saw such a method, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Is this really possible?

"At first, you practice by yourself first, and I'll pick the weakest soul for you." As he spoke, Goth released a soul from the Soul Stone. Li De felt a soul power seep out of the soul stone, and immediately wrapped his soul power in it.

This weak soul is a Federation soldier who doesn't even dare to fire a gun inside the Federation base. As soon as Li De wrapped this soul, he felt that the other party was still trembling, as if he was afraid. Unceremoniously, Li De began to use the power of his soul to fuse this soul.

Yes, the so-called devouring process is to fuse two souls. But in the process of integration, Li De's consciousness must occupy the active position. In the process of fusion, there will be great pain, and Li De wants to use this pain to wipe out the consciousness of the other party and collect the other party's energy for his own use.

As soon as the process of devouring and fusing began, Li De felt a severe headache and dizziness, and the whole person seemed to be spinning in a gravityless environment, and it seemed to be a handstand under his head and feet. At the same time, it seems that he has been pricked in the brain by countless fine needles, and it seems that there are many ants gnawing on his brain, and the indescribable pain hits, and he can no longer sleep in bed.

But he gritted his teeth and didn't shout, his lips were bitten, blood was shed, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked extremely terrifying. In the dark dormitory, Li De struggled over and over, and occasionally a roommate who woke up thought Li De was sick and came to inquire with concern. But Li De gritted his teeth, shook his head, and continued to lie on the bed. Seeing this, the roommate didn't continue to watch.

Li De, whose whole body was already soaked with sweat, took a deep breath tremblingly. It took an hour of pain to merge with the soul of the Union soldier. And this fusion only increased Li De's soul energy a little bit.

"Take a break and meditate for the night. You can't do too much of this kind of thing, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it, and your spirit will collapse. Goth said.

Li De took a deep breath and finally recovered from the pain. Seeing that his soul energy had only increased slightly, he smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if these sufferings are worth it?"

Goth said to Li De angrily: "You kid be content!" Do you know? It's only a little bit more, but it's worth more than a month of training. ”

"What? It's only been a little over a month, and it's going to make me suffer like this? Li De said in amazement, he felt a little unbalanced.

"Don't underestimate these, you are cultivating with soul stones, and your results in more than a month are equivalent to three months for others. And it was just one night, if you persist like this for a month, wouldn't that be equivalent to someone cultivating for several years? ”

"Alright! Practice it like this for a few months, and see how far I can grow from the soul technique! Li De thought this in his heart, and he also cheered himself up. Because when I think of the pain I endured for the hour just now, my whole tooth is still sore and itchy.

Just as he was in pain and cultivating soul arts, several bodyguards dressed in black and sunglasses stood at the door outside the door of a small chamber in the Federal Assembly. In the room, several federal parliamentarians were secretly discussing.

The councillors in it include Councilor Linda of Ampton Star and Councilor Brewer of Carmen Star, who is the strong middle-aged man who supports Councilor Linda in the parliamentary session. and councilors from more than 30 planets such as Kapok Tanxing and Niu Li Si Xing.

Councillors from more than 30 planets are discussing the contents of the daytime meeting. In fact, in a daytime meeting, the council could not reach any decision at all, but in this day of heated debate, the more than 30 planets have reached an alliance.

Now, what they are discussing is how to use their own resources to force the ten families of the federal parliament to agree to lower the trade tax.

"Together, we can produce more than half of the Federation's current output, so why should we listen to those big families? They are the vampires who suck the sweat of our blood! A black elderly congressman said.

Councillor Linda said: "Our only weakness is that we don't have military power. And each of the ten major families controls a large number of armies. ”

"But those military stores are also our people, and only we declare together that those soldiers will directly join the forces of our planetary government. So that you don't have to rely on the Federal Military Department! ”

"But, in that case, will we be able to withstand the attacks of aliens and zergs?" An elderly white congressman said worriedly.

"If you are defensive, there should be no problem. And our planets are all together, and if we only form our own combined fleet and take care of each other, there should be no big problem. The black congressman said again.

"I don't think it's time to leave the Union, but we can use this as a threat. Without the support of our resource planets, it would be difficult for the Federation to support this race war. Congressman Brewer said.

Councillor Linda also nodded and said, "Indeed, there is no way for us to immediately organize an army to fight against the federal military department, and it is far from time to break away from the Federation. What we need to do now is to first introduce a tax cut bill from the federal government, followed by a conscription bill, and only then will we have the ability to build our own planetary guard army. ”

When the councillors heard this, they all nodded in agreement. Seeing that these councillors had reached a unified opinion, Councillor Linda also smiled wisely. After nearly 20 hours of negotiations, they finally have the capital to compete with the federal government.

The Statham family has a towering mansion in the new Berlin city, and on the top floor of the building is a huge circular conference room, which can accommodate thousands of people, and the patriarch of the Statham family, Moon Statham, is frowning at the moment.

Moon looked into a dark corner of the conference room, where a low, hoarse voice could be heard, "What you've done is going to throw the galaxy out of balance!" ”
