The flames enveloped Ivlit, but she herself felt nothing, not the slightest trace of burning in her clothes, the belongings she carried, or even the fireproof coating on her feet.

Serena said lightly: "The liberation force should still have precise control over its own strength, and the second and third stages are not achieved overnight, and it requires a very long process of learning and experimentation, and it is difficult to achieve this level by only one person's exploration." ”

Her views were agreed by Zhou Jinru, and compared with the increase in strength, what people are more concerned about is consumption, that is, the price to be paid.

"Life, the price of liberating power is life."

Ifrit's words moved several people present, because she was consuming her life at the moment.

Zhou Jinru nodded: "It's okay, terminate the third stage, there is no need to do it now." ”

"Nope."

Unexpectedly, Ifrit refused his request, opened his hands, and said in a deep voice, "You should take another look at the fourth stage." ”

"There's no need!"

Zhou Jinru's words, Ifrit didn't listen at all, the flames on the surface of her body instantly converged and retracted into her body, and at the same time, a faint light was emitted, and her brightness had surpassed the professional lights of the training ground.

"If you just try to change form, instead of power output, the life consumed is negligible, and the actual power consumption will only be generated in the event of a fierce battle."

At this point, Serena only frowned, she could no longer understand Ifrit's true level, nor did she know what kind of environment gave birth to such a Sakaz.

However, from the conversation between the Doctor and Ifrit, it is clear that they know the truth.

After a few seconds, Ifrit returned to her normal state, but she still said the next sentence: "Doctor, in fact, the third stage and the fourth stage should be counted as one type, the difference is in the width and rate of power output, after the fourth stage, there is also the fifth stage, that is the real qualitative change, from the human being to the gods, in our world, only one person has reached the fifth stage." ”

"You can rest first."

Ifrit took a bottle of water and left with the two operators, who had to do another medical examination for data comparison.

Zhou Jinru watched the operator who recorded the strength test data constantly tapping on the keyboard, turned his head sideways and said to Huang beside him: "Huang, what do you think?" ”

"Her powers, which don't seem to be her own, feel weird."

"She fused the Flame Demon, and if it weren't for this, she wouldn't be alive today without a reliable medical treatment to suppress the fusion rate of cells for a long time."

The person who said this was Serea, but in Zhou Jinru's impression, the adult version of Ifrit has always been very autistic, and there is a high probability that he will not say these words, that is to say, Director Sei just stood aside and looked at it a few times before confirming the facts.

Zhou Jinru smiled: "Dr. Hermer often says that you don't care about Eveve, but in fact, it is a misunderstanding, you have always taken that child to heart." ”

"That kid...... I'm also responsible. ”

"Okay, go see her, try, get to know her as a new friend, and I'll help you."

Serena was silent for a few seconds, and then strode in the direction Ifrit had left, her back sturdy, tall, like a mountain.

Huang looked at it for a long time and wondered, "Did we misunderstand something?" ”

"It's possible that we used to treat them as a family, and that's true, but there are differences between our perception in some details."

Zhou Jinru put down his hands and coughed lightly, it was his turn next.

There are some differences in the items that Ifrit tested just now in his strength test, mainly the resistance to blows......

"Don't worry, Doctor, I'll be careful."

Forty minutes later, Gavel, who was on duty today, tilted his head and said in his heart, what the hell is going on with the doctor, who is still hanging the flagpole in the morning, and enters the infirmary sideways in the afternoon?

Huang stood in the doorway like a child who had done something wrong, his pointed ears lowered, waiting to be reprimanded, and Dr. Kelsey was on his way.

The first one to run was Amiya, and the first thing the rabbit said when she rushed in was whether the doctor's life was in danger.

"No, it's just ...... It's not good, it's not good anyway. ”

Zhou Jinru's voice trembled, he almost stopped crying, he wanted to try the simulated combat method when he was conducting the anti-strike test, and then ...... There was no then, many capillaries on the surface of the body burst, and instantly turned into a bloody person, fortunately the blood stopped as soon as possible, but he was too weak to stand up.

However, Huang believes that it was his own mistake that caused the doctor to be injured.

The blood had been cleaned up, and there weren't many wounds to be seen, just pale from the outside.

"Doctor, what the hell is going on?"

"I made a mistake, it has nothing to do with Huang, don't blame her."

Huang bit his lower lip, glanced up at Zhou Jinru, lowered his head again, turned around and walked out of the infirmary.

Zhou Jinru grabbed Amiya's hand and shouted: "Hurry up and catch up, it's really not her problem, be sure to bring people back!" ”

Amiya ran out in a hurry, and when she went out, she happened to pass shoulders with Kelsey who came in a hurry, and when the lynx entered the door, she first asked Javier for a medical record, and only came over after a few glances.

"What's the matter with you, yesterday you hung the deck, today you went to the infirmary, are you going to cut into the line and enter the comprehensive biological processing room tomorrow?"

"Not so much not so ......"

Zhou Jinru smiled weakly, but looking at Kelsey's expression, it didn't seem to be a joke.

Kelsey sat beside him and said lightly: "The amount of bleeding is not large, it is not to the point where you need a blood transfusion, you can rest these days, and don't think about work." ”

"It's okay, it's easier to sit and go to work, if I don't go to work, Amiya will go crazy, she's still a child."

"You know?"

Zhou Jinru: "......"

I know what I know, but what's going on with this tone?

Not to be outdone, he said: "It's been so long, I've worked hard for you." ”

Kelsey didn't speak, the eyes were meaningful, and Zhou Jinru felt weak for a while, as if he had done something sorry for her.

This strange silence lasted for more than a minute, and Kelsey stood up and left, and said as he left: "It's easy to talk about work, Amiya, you have to guide her, help her, understand?" ”

After she left, Zhou Jinru lay alone on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking for a long time, until Amiya came in with Huang.

The big cat was full of grievances, unspeakably pitiful, and moved forward step by step.

Zhou Jinru beckoned: "Don't, come here, I'll tell you slowly, Amiya, you avoid it first, it's troublesome." ”

The little rabbit waved his hand and turned away.

Huang stood in place and said in a low voice, "Are you okay?" ”
