Chapter 12: Soul Power Crystal (Asking for Red Ticket Collection)
Looking at the crystal fragments the size of a grain of rice on the table, Qin Lun's eyes flashed, he really didn't expect the old goblin to back down so lightly. However, the old guy is so confident in these crystal fragments that he is not worried that he will continue to entangle?
Qin Lun reached out with curiosity to pick up a crystal, but his fingers had just touched the crystal fragment, and the skeleton pattern lurking in the palm of his right hand actually reacted again.
After digesting the cool breath of this skull pattern last night, the original rhythmic pulsation slowly weakened until it disappeared. No matter how Qin Lun tried it, that weird simple computer did not appear in the depths of his consciousness again.
And now, after Qin Lun pinched the crystal fragment, two points of scarlet ghost fire appeared in the eye sockets of this skull pattern again, pulsating slowly. With this imperceptible pulsation, a suction force was generated in the skeleton pattern, as if a baby was holding a pacifier and automatically sucking the orange-yellow crystal fragment.
A faint cool breath followed Qin Lun's fingers and poured into the small skull in his palm, and the crystal fragments shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and actually disappeared under the noses of the old goblin and Qin Lun.
"It's ...... Magic Jelly Bean? Qin Lun blinked his eyes flutteringly, not at all embarrassed by his greedy behavior, but reached out again and picked up another orange-yellow crystal, watching it slowly disappear into his fingertips.
"You, you, this pattern...... Official apostle?! The old goblin turned a deaf ear to Qin Lun's witticisms, lost his composure for the first time, and was a little incoherent, staring at Qin Lun's palm with bulging eyes, the skeleton pattern that only revealed a corner.
It wasn't until the third crystal fragment disappeared into Qin Lun's fingertips that he came back to his senses and angrily covered the other crystal fragments on the table.
"What a magic little jelly bean, this is a soul power crystal!"
The Great Goblin Elder looked at Qin Lun with a complicated expression, "This pattern on your hand is not a tattoo, it only appeared after entering the Shattered Starry Sky, right?" Do you want to know what this is? ”
"What is this?" Qin Lun slowly put away his smile and sat up straight on the chair, although he didn't know the world, he also knew that when he asked others, he needed to be humble and respectful.
"This is not a secret, after you arrive in the floating city, someone will sue you!" The old goblin sighed, a blank look on his face, as if immersed in a distant memory.
When all the Apostles enter the Shattered Starry Sky for the first time, they will come into contact with the broken Law Crystal in the space-time tunnel, and some lucky Apostles will directly get a relatively complete Law Crystal, or an item that is fused with a complete Law Crystal.
This probability is generally only 1 in 1,000, one of the reasons for this is that the complete law crystals in the space-time tunnel are very rare, and the other reason is that the apostles did not know the preciousness of this kind of law crystals at the beginning, and they would not specifically look for items that fused with complete law crystals. And the law crystals in those items can only be stored for almost two or three minutes, and then they will dissipate directly, and by the time the apostles understand this qiē, the treasure has become garbage.
The pattern on Qin Lun's hand is called the soul mark, which is formed by the law crystal that is integrated into the law body, or the item that contains the law crystal.
The Soul Mark is the watershed that distinguishes the Preparatory Apostle from the Regular Apostle, and it is generally only after the Preparatory Apostle has passed the first journey to the Atlas and completed the necessary Atlas tasks that he can obtain a complete Crystal of the Law and integrate it into the body.
For an apostle, there is no substitute for the role of a soul seal. Through the soul seal, the apostles can monitor the condition of the law's body at any time, store many spiritual equipment, and obtain various combat skills and bloodline abilities.
It can be said that the soul mark is the second soul and natal magic weapon of the apostle, so it is called the soul mark. An apostle can only have one soul mark, and other law crystals can only be used to enhance the original soul mark. The soul seal is the true embodiment of the will of the apostles, and no matter what kind of law crystals are fused, there is only one form of the table.
"The soul imprint is as weak as a newborn baby at the beginning. Only by slowly feeding the soul power spar can it gradually mature and be controlled by the apostles. The Great Goblin Elder glanced at Qin Lun and said angrily, "Now you know the preciousness of the soul power crystal!" Also magic jelly beans...... Hum! ”
"Huh!" Qin Lun smiled and touched his nose, there was no embarrassment on his face, "So if you don't have a soul power crystal, the soul mark won't have any effect?" ”
"No, without the Soul Power Crystal, the Soul Mark will also grow, but it will directly absorb the life force of the Apostle. Moreover, the soul imprint after maturity will also consume a small amount of the apostle's life force. The old goblin grinned.
"However, no apostle cares about this cost, as long as they can survive the Atlas mission safely, they will get a lot of hedrons. If you die in the middle of the mission, then the consumption of the soul mark is nothing. ”
"Well, I'm very satisfied with the compensation of the soul power crystal, just give me a hundred or so!" Qin Lun was finally relieved and showed a bright smile.
"A hundred?" The Goblin Grand Elder's eyes widened, and his head shook like a rattle, "This is impossible, you have already absorbed three grains just now, and at most you will be given seven more!" ”
"Not negotiable?"
"Not negotiable!"
Qin Lun slowly narrowed his eyes, the red glow in his eyes flashed, and the old goblin didn't back down this time, looking at the killer with an expressionless face.
"There are more than a thousand zombies in the base, and I only need a hundred soul power crystals, which is not much!" Qin Lun suddenly grinned, "If other people know the value of this soul power crystal, I think they will definitely come to you again." At that time, it wasn't enough to whip a hundred grains! ”
The old goblin's face finally changed greatly, he opened his eyes suddenly, stood up tremblingly from his couch for the first time, the fat on his face twisted into a ball, leaned in front of Qin Lun, and roared in a low voice: "How do you know?" ”
Qin Lun smiled without saying a word, but he sighed slightly in his heart, and the old goblin's reaction completely confirmed his guess.
The zombies in the base have no intelligence and are not infected with any virus, which all prisoners know, otherwise, they would have died long ago. So what does a zombie that has lost its soul rely on to support its biological instincts? This question has never been answered.
In fact, when the prisoners first met God's gang of bikers, the reaction of the Lulu clan after seeing the zombies made Qin Lun suspicious. However, since Godd quickly took them away from the scene, he could only bury his doubts in the bottom of his heart.
When Qin Lun picked up the soul power spar just now, he found that the cool aura generated in the soul power spar was actually exactly the same as the cool aura he got when he killed Chekov. This had to make Qin Lun suspect that the so-called soul power spar was the product of the combination of the law crystal fragment and the human body.
In other words, when he killed Chekov, the law crystal fused on the Russian man's body had only turned into a cool aura, and had not been completely absorbed by him. As a result, he was fused by Qin Lun's soul imprint and sucked out Chekov's body.
Under many coincidences, if Qin Lun couldn't associate the soul power spar with zombies, then he really had a good brain for nothing. However, there is no need to confess these things to the old goblin.
Since the soul power spar was indeed very useful, he had to give up the good opportunity to enjoy the old guy's performance first, and try to get more spars.
The old goblin's face changed unpredictably, but he still waved his hand to repel the two goblin guards who wanted to attack Qin Lun. After a while, the Goblin Grand Elder's face slowly regained his composure, and he leaned back to his seat and casually threw the small cloth bag containing the soul power crystal on the table.
"The soul power spar is the crystallization of the law crystal and various intelligent lifeforms, if the intelligent life loses its soul in the time and space teleportation, then with the support of these crystals, it will become a temporary zombie until the spar in the body is consumed."
As the old goblin spoke again, the expression on his face became softer and softer, and finally his eyes lit up and he looked at Qin Lun with a smile.
"There are many types of soul power crystals, and they are consumed very quickly in the human body, and more than a thousand zombies can probably produce about six hundred soul power crystals. Including the three pills you just absorbed, there are a total of one hundred and fifty-six soul power crystals in this bag, which is all the income that Godd has taken the Lulu clan so far, and I can give it all to you, as long as you promise me one condition. ”
Qin Lun frowned slightly, but he didn't reach out to take the small cloth bag of the soul power crystal, raised his head and asked cautiously, "You talk about the conditions first!" ”
"Alas, today's young people don't respect the old and love the young at all, and the old man won't let you suffer!" The Great Goblin Elder waved his hand slowly to the two Goblin Guards behind him, "Go, get Didi!" ”
Soon, the Goblin Guard appeared in the tent with a small goblin, a thin, slender goblin boy with long pointed ears and a little fluff. The goblin's eyes themselves are large, and the eyes of this little goblin are even larger, blinking like emeralds.
"Dee Dee is Godd's youngest child and my grandson, six years old, and by human standards, he happens to be a teenager who is about to become an adult. Since he was a child, he likes to listen to my adventure stories, and he is determined to get out of the red Gobi and see the world! The old goblin lovingly touched Deedie's little head, "I'll give him to you......"
"Wait, I don't care about kids!" Qin Lun interrupted the old goblin's words expressionlessly.
"It's okay, Didi will take care of herself!"
"I'm dangerous, he's not safe with me!"
"Life and death are fateful! Out of this tent, Dee Dee is your servant. Even if you kill him immediately, the Lulu Clan will not complain! The old goblin smiled and pushed the cloth bag and Didi in front of Qin Lun.
"Now, they're all yours!"
