Chapter 57: Physical Test (2-in-1)

"Do you want to test your body?" Adeline stared at Qin Lun's face with a strange expression.

"What's wrong?" Qin Lun touched his face.

"Nothing, I thought your first Atlas mission had failed!" Adeline said in surprise.

"Why, just because I didn't deal with those assailants?" Qin Lun understood, and smiled bitterly.

"It's not! Under normal circumstances, most of the preparatory apostles would not be able to pass the first otherworldly mission......" Adeline shook her head and glanced at Qin Lun, "Come with me, Moonlight Town does not have a device capable of testing the apostles, we have to go to the Moonlight Forest." ”

Adeline said a few words to the elven guards next to her, and then led Qin Lun towards the tunnel at the bottom of the lake. Moonlight Town is located at the bottom of Moonlight Lake, and they have to go through the Guò tunnel to get back to the forest shore.

The elven beauty wore a black sleeveless leather armor today, and under the battle skirt woven with vine leaves around her waist, she wore black pantyhose that were rare for the elf clan. Lined with her heroic face and short black hair, she looked charming and sexy, which feasted Qin Lun's eyes on the people who followed her.

"Adeline, every time an Apostle successfully completes an Otherworldly Mission, will he ask for a physical test to count jù?" Qin Lun asked politely.

"No, only the lower-ranking apostles have such a requirement, and the higher-ranking apostles seem to be able to control the flesh perfectly. Even if they get a lot out of a netherworld mission, they'll be able to adapt quickly! Adeline patiently explained.

Qin Lun's heart moved, the information revealed by the elf beauty was very important. In this way, the High Apostles should all have a special equipment similar to the death list, which can closely manage the Law Body and the Apostle Soul Seal. The road he is walking has already been walked by his predecessors.

It's just that unlike Qin Lun, who was just starting out, the "death list" of the High Apostle should have been very complete. Even if you gain new powers in otherworldly missions, you can immediately manifest them in special equipment, and you don't have to go to the floating city to test the number of various body counts.

"We're here!" Adeline led Qin Lun through the tunnel at the bottom of the lake, and walked in the forest for a while, and the two came to a huge tree that resembled the banyan tree of the earth.

This giant tree, like some old banyan trees, has numerous thick aerial roots. These air roots surround the main trunk, and there is a narrow gap between the air roots, which basically only allows a single person to squeeze into it sideways, but it is a good place to hide and seek.

"You don't want me to squeeze in here!" Qin Lun pointed to the giant tree and said angrily.

"Hee-hee, Lord Fernand's air roots produce a psychedelic gas that allows the Apostle to take control of his mind with great clarity and imagine the most suitable testing equipment and venue for him." Adeline said proudly, "This is a test method unique to our elves, and sometimes, even the High Apostles come to the Moonlight Forest to apply for a loan!" ”

"Lord Fernand?" Looking at Adeline's arrogant expression, Qin Lun shrugged his shoulders and asked in surprise, "Is this tree alive?" ”

"Well, Your Excellency Fernando is sleeping, it won't wake up unless it is very hurt, you just squeeze in!" Adeline couldn't help but laugh and pointed to the slit between the air roots.

"Okay!" Qin Lun sighed and cautiously moved his body sideways into the banyan tree air root.

After squeezing inside, he realized that the space inside was not as narrow as he imagined. It seems that the Treant Fernand deliberately used the air roots to make a circle outside, leaving a ring between the main trunk and the air roots.

……

Seeing Qin Lun enter the tree man's body, Adeline found a stake nearby and sat down to wait. Although the Treants are asleep, they are also aware of foreign objects in their bodies, and naturally release a certain amount of psychedelic gases.

Different apostles' physiques and the time for the psychedelic gas to take effect are also different, coupled with the apostle's imaginary self-test, she estimated that Qin Lun would take a while before he came out.

In the boring waiting, Adeline changed her relaxed expression just now, and there was a trace of sadness between her delicate eyebrows, she was worried about her father Marfa.

The elven clan to which Marfa and Adeline belong is called the Moonlit Elves, and is one of the five branches of the Great Elven clan. Unlike humans, elves do not attach much importance to generational relationships due to their lifespan and appearance.

As long as there is no blood relationship, it is not a strange thing for a grandmother-level female elf to be combined with a male elf who is hundreds of years younger than herself. Of course, the blood relationship between father and daughter is still very strong, not to mention, the trouble that Marfa encountered this time is still a major matter of the Moonlit Night clan.

"Whew!" Just as the elf beauty was thinking about her thoughts, there was movement ahead. Qin Lun, who had been in the body of the tree man for about twenty minutes, squeezed out the air root again.

"Are you done with the test?" Adeline asked, somewhat surprised.

In general, the apostles' first tests of themselves were very meticulous, sometimes taking hours. Only the apostles who have already controlled the law body themselves and only need to make partial adjustments will complete the test in a short time.

"Well, it's done!" Qin Lun smiled reluctantly, his expression was a little ugly, as if he had seen something terrifying.

Adeline looked at Qin Lun strangely, it was safe to use psychedelic gases for testing. Although the test itself was hallucination, as long as the apostle was in good spirits, he would not see anything he should not see.

Of course, the elf beauty didn't know that Qin Lun happened to belong to the category of mentally abnormal, and in this test, although he had completed the purpose of testing his physical attributes, he was almost unable to get rid of the hallucination.

In the imaginary test, Qin Lun perfectly fed back the test results of the law body to the death list. Although the basic numbers of explosiveness, agility, physique, and perception are all uniformly identified as 10 points, they have been linked to the specific test number jù.

Judging from these numbers, Qin Lun's current body element is roughly 1.5-1.6 times that of a normal human man. Of course, the number of deaths in the list will fluctuate slightly as the hormones and emotions in the body change.

Perhaps 1.5-1.6 times the body element of a normal human man does not seem very high, but the actual effect is very terrifying.

To give a rough example, a normal human man's 100-meter run will be between 11-13 seconds, with an average of 12 seconds, if this speed is 1.5-1.6 times faster, then Qin Lun's 100-meter speed has obviously surpassed Bolt.

A normal man's bounce can jump almost 50 cm on the spot, and about 80 cm with a little training. If it becomes 1.5 times, it has already caught up with the bounce of those famous spring people in the NBA.

In terms of combat effectiveness, 1.5 times the muscle strength and strength, multiplied by 1.5 times the speed of nerve reactions, Qin Lun's punch power is comparable to that of a heavyweight professional boxer.

He runs faster than Usain Bolt, jumps higher than Kobe, and has punches comparable to that of a professional heavy-hitter. Even if he hasn't departed from the category of human beings, he is still a comprehensive super athlete, this is the conclusion that Qin Lun came to after the test.

"Let's go when you're done and get an early night's rest. Tomorrow, the Moonlight Forest will open the gate of the starry sky and leave the red Gobi! Adeline put away her curious expression and said lightly.

"Aren't you going back?" Qin Lun walked a few steps and saw Adeline standing still, so he turned his head and asked.

"It's already out anyway, I want to be here for a while!" Adeline looked at the sparkling moonlight lake in the distance and said with some loneliness.

"Hehe, you seem to have some troubled things! If you don't mind, you can talk to me and maybe I can help you with some ideas. Qin Lun chuckled and turned to sit next to the elf beauty, "In addition, I also happen to have some questions that I want to consult with you!" ”

"Then you should ask first, Your Excellency Qin Lun, it is my duty to serve the apostles!" Adeline took off her hair clip, shook her short silky hair, and leaned a little lazily against the stump.

"Adeline, I'd like to ask if there are any special settlements or cities in the Shattered Sky where all the apostles gather?" Qin Lun asked lightly.

"This ......" Adeline was taken aback, as if she didn't expect Qin Lun to ask such a question, hesitated for a moment before saying, "How did you come up with this question, aren't you satisfied with the Moonlight Forest?" ”

"No, I'm happy with the environment in the Moonlight Forest, but there are too few official apostles here. The experience of this otherworldly mission made me understand that in addition to exercising my ability to survive, I also need to strengthen communication with other official apostles. Otherwise, sooner or later, I will fail my mission to the Otherworld due to lack of intelligence. Qin Lun said frankly.

"I didn't expect you to realize this problem so quickly, and it seems that Marfa values you for a reason. Many apostles only take this issue seriously if they have been through several otherworldly missions. Adeline sighed softly. Hesitantly explained.

"The Moonlight Forest has never wanted to hide this from the Apostles, and usually after you have completed three otherworldly missions, the Moonlight Forest will take the initiative to tell you. The Shattered Starry Sky does have a special gathering place for the Apostles, however, it is not appropriate for the low-level Apostles to go to that kind of place too early, and you can get more comprehensive basic training in the Moonlight Forest. ”

Qin Lun blinked, a little unimpressed by Adeline's words. He understood why the Moonlight Forest had withheld this information for the time being, leaving the Apostle through three otherworldly missions first. The apostles' first otherworldly experiences were life and death tests for them.

In otherworldly missions, the apostles will be put to great tests both mentally and physically. After returning to the Shattered Starry Sky, environments like Moonlight Forest and Moonlight Town can greatly relax the Apostle's body and mind.

On the other hand, this also strengthened the apostle's identification with the Moonlight Forest and the elves. Coupled with the free help of the Moonlight Forest in the early stage, the elves could easily sign some mercenary equality contracts with the apostles. Even if the Apostle leaves the Moonlight Forest later, the Elves can quickly summon the Apostle's assistance in the event of war.

As for why the Otherworldly Missions are set to three times, it is because after three Otherworldly Missions, most of the Apostles who survived became official Apostles. According to the experience and process of ordinary apostles, after becoming official apostles, they also basically mastered the common sense of survival and basic martial arts taught by the Moonlight Forest.

The next help of the Moonlight Forest to them was almost negligible.

When the time comes, these official apostles urgently need to exchange experiences with other mature apostles, trade some spare equipment items on hand, and try to improve their strength.

At the same time, as the difficulty of the task increases, they also need to know more formal apostles and prepare to form an apostolic team with others.

"There is a special floating city in the Shattered Starry Sky, which is open to the entire plane, but there are very few of them, and there is a special starry sky gate for teleportation." Looking at Qin Lun's focused expression, Adeline frowned, but had to continue, "Actually, the trouble of the Moonnight Elf Clan this time is related to one of these cities!" ”

"Oh?" Qin Lun asked with interest, "I wonder if Miss Adeline can tell me more about this kind of city, thanks to the Moon Night Clan for taking care of it for so long, if possible, I hope to help the nobles a little." ”

Still helping? I'm afraid that now that you've become an official apostle, you can't wait to leave the Moonlight Forest, right? Adeline pouted, scolding herself, but her tone was still respectful.

"I haven't seen the Apostle City with my own eyes, and it is rumored that there are no native residents of the Shattered Starry Sky in it, and all the facilities are dedicated to the Apostles. There are arenas, auction houses, shops for various spiritual items, magic towers and martial arts halls where you can teach the skills of advanced apostles, alchemy shops for forging special equipment, and more! ”

Looking at Qin Lun, whose eyes were slowly brightening, Adeline sighed in her heart, this apostle probably couldn't be kept. When Marfa returns, she will definitely be scolded to death.

"Miss Adeline, was this apostolic city created by the apostles?" Qin Lun pondered for a while, then asked cautiously.

"No, the apostles could not build such a floating city. Even the best apostle team doesn't have the time and energy to gather so many natural resources to build a floating city. Adeline explained slowly.

In Adeline's next introduction, Qin Lun learned that the Apostle City was also built by the intelligent races of the Shattered Starry Sky, but not one race, but several intelligent races.

The Floating City is a unique product of the Shattered Starry Sky, itself because of the survival competition between the intelligent race and the Hanging Continent. The intelligent race wanted to get the help of the apostles, but they couldn't rely entirely on the apostles, so the floating city was born.

It can be said that although the floating city can provide services to the apostles, it is still essentially for the survival of the intelligent race. Apostolic City, on the other hand, was born entirely out of service to the Apostles.

No matter how perfect the floating city of the intelligent race is, it is also flawed. The Moonlight Forest teaches the Preparatory Apostles the common sense of survival, and teaches the elves martial arts and elven magic. However, the otherworlds that the apostles had to experience were diverse, and there must be some otherworldly laws that were completely different from what the elves taught.

For example, if the Apostle enters a high-tech world similar to Transformers, the martial arts and magic taught by the elves will become chicken ribs, with only a bunch of combat skills that cannot be used at all, and how to carry out otherworldly missions.

Based on this realization, certain apostolic groups in the ruling class of the pyramid began to unite with the many intelligent races they were familiar with to build a dedicated apostolic city.

This apostolic city has no indigenous inhabitants and is governed by a union of the intelligent races that built the city. In this way, Apostle City will not only have civilizations of the orderly and good camp, but also dark civilizations. Not only will there be magical skills, but there will also be high-tech equipment items.

It not only enriches the choice of Apostles' equipment, allowing them to better deal with Otherworldly missions, but also allows Apostles to choose and combine teams to exchange experience with otherworldly missions.

Of course, there are also great benefits to the intelligent races that jointly built this apostolic city.

The first is that they can more easily hire high apostles, although apostles who do not have a sense of identity may cut corners on tasks in the hiring process, but after all, it is also a way to hire.

Secondly, the thousands of apostles of all levels in the Apostle City will generate a large amount of consumption and transactions in the city. Although Apostle City only charges a small commission, it is a great asset all together. And the commission given by the apostles was not gold coins, but the common currency used among the apostles.

For example: broken crystals, exchange huàn coupons, and even physical objects such as soul power crystals, skill scrolls, and equipment items.

Although the virtual currencies of the apostles such as Broken Crystal and Huàn Roll cannot be paid substantively, they can also be paid in the form of credit, equipment and items, task hiring, etc.

Obviously, this has a fatal attraction for the intelligent races that manage the Apostle City!

Come to think of it, a piece of blue quality equipment is considered a family heirloom by a High Elf like Marfa Moria, and the spiritual equipment circulating in the Apostle City certainly doesn't stop at blue equipment. There may also be purple gear, dark gold gear, and even legendary gear......

The intelligent races responsible for the management of the Apostolic City fight each year for seats on the city council, and of course, the voters in the council elections are...... Apostle!

It can be said that if you put the Apostolic City on Earth, it is definitely the city with the best service attitude on the entire planet. This is no longer a question of jobs, but of the survival of the race.

"The trouble that the Moonnight Elves have encountered this time is that there is a general election in the Apostle City!" Adeline said bluntly, "Even if you become an official apostle now, I'm afraid you won't be able to help with your current level!" ”

"Hehe, then, Marfa should have teleported to that apostle city! The level of the apostle can only represent the strength of the fight, since it is a parliamentary election, at least there will be no life and death on the surface, and it will be seen if it can help then! Qin Lun narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully.

"By the way, I have some potion materials here, I don't know if you can find someone to help me make the potion of recovery!" As he spoke, Qin Lun took out items such as moonlight grass and golden silkworm dust from the storage space and handed them to Adeline.
