Inside the community safe house.

Qi Rin was sorting out his harvest.

There was also a half-filled bottle of yellow potion on the table.

This is a therapeutic injection.

At the same time, it also has a little physique enhancement effect, which is a bit like a multi-functional complex of morphine cardiotonic and therapeutic effects.

At the same time, it was also the kind of precious healing injection given to him by the soldiers in the previous life.

This precious injection, in addition to injuries such as severe damage to internal organs, can be said to be able to save lives from the hands of death.

Cloak, machine-made scrolls, three yellow needles.

Three things were the harvest that mycelial touches brought him.

After Qi Rin found that his physique had been declining, he immediately thought of the decline in his physique caused by blood drawing in his previous life.

At the same time, he thought of the medicine that the soldier gave him, which allowed him to survive without further decline.

Qi Rin immediately took the potion and called himself.

However, because the injection was so precious, he only took half of it as a test.

[Constitution]: 2 (1.5)

Qi Rin glanced at the physique panel information.

Finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whew, it seems to be working."

"I'll have to find a way to get more of this stuff in the future."

"This may alleviate the problem of declining physical fitness."

Qi Rin looked at the palm that was getting thinner and thinner, and the green muscles and blood vessels on it began to gradually appear after the flesh and blood had subsided a lot for some reason.

Since his physical fitness gradually declined, he found that the flesh and blood of his body gradually began to wither like a flower that had lost its nutrients.

However, this injection can only be obtained by demon seeds or merchants.

This also increased Qi Rin's desire to quickly kill the demon seed and increase his currency savings.

After putting aside the issue of physique for a while, Qi Rin shifted his gaze to the cloak equipment.

[Equipment]: The cloak of the wandering mage.

[Quality]: Blue.

Note: Mountains, deserts, snow-capped mountains, swamps, etc. are all places that wandering mages like to visit.

In order to resist the ever-changing climate of the outside world, the wandering mage asked the enchanter to enchant two small spells on his cloak: Cooling and Cold.

Note: The Wandering Mage's cape comes with two small spells, which consume charges to give the wearer a spell buff when activated.

Note: Charging can be quickly increased by consuming basic spiritual attributes, or slowly by absorbing free elements from the outside world.

Note: Base Spiritual Stats increased by 10 points.

"Ten o'clock!"

"You can summon two more Black Warriors who consume eight spirits, plus some other undead!"

"It's a blue outfit."

Qi Rin was in a happy mood at the moment, and his ring alone strengthened his spirit by 2 points.

Even the bracelet that the ogre got was only three points.

But a blue quality cloak adds ten points!

You must know that the Black Iron Rank Chosen One can only be assigned one attribute every time they are upgraded.

But just this piece of blue equipment brings all the attribute point bonuses of the full-level Black Iron Rank Chosen One!

"No wonder the blue quality equipment in the previous life is so rare, this blessing is too strong!"

In the same level state, whether there is equipment blessing or not, and whether there is skill blessing determines the strength of the Chosen One.

"Just one piece of blue equipment is so strong, but what about purple? What about red? ”

Qi Rin squinted his eyes, remembering the message it had received when it had killed the Blood Vine in the first place.

[Congratulations to the Chosen One: Winter Solstice, the first regular-level demon seed to be killed in the global war zone!] 】

[Rewards will be distributed after the opening of subsequent modules!] 】

"Will it be a reward for high-quality equipment? I'm really looking forward to it! ”

Qi Rin immediately put on his cloak.

The massive black cloak could almost completely wrap his body around twice.

His fingers caressed the black fabric, giving it a slippery texture.

Qi Rin walked over to the mirror to take a look.

With short hair, his originally delicate face looks so thin at the moment.

The bloodshot eyes are also so conspicuous.

If you look carefully between the eyebrows and eyes, you will find that they wrinkle from time to time to bring the whole person a lifeless and depressed feeling.

The black Wandering Mage's cloak comes with two shoulder straps.

The huge and broad cloak firmly wrapped Qi Rin's entire person, and even his neck was not exposed.

If you wear a black face mask, glasses or other face coverings.

That Qi Rin will turn black, and there will be no more variegation.

"Cold!"

Qi Rin's consciousness moved slightly, and he activated one of the two small spells that came with the cloak: the cold protection technique.

As the magic patterns on the surface of the cloak flashed, Qi Rin, who was firmly wrapped in the cloak, only felt that he was in the heat of a furnace.

He tried to adjust the speed of his charge slightly, and found that the heat was slowly changing.

"Isn't this a controllable switch?"

Qi Rin is like a child who has received a beloved toy at the moment, constantly testing the effectiveness of the mantle's own spells.

After some testing, he found that about 1 spirit or so was enough for the cloak to complete the charge.

Depending on how quickly its charge passes, the life cycle of a charge is about three to ten days.

If the spell is not activated statically, its charge will also slowly increase.

"This should be what the commentary says, slowly absorbing the elements from the outside world."

After the test, Qi Rin returned to the sofa.

The whole person was wrapped in a black texture cloak, like a big zongzi.

He slowly reached out his emaciated right hand from his cloak and picked up the mechanical scroll.

At this moment, the demonic whispers in Qi Rin's heart were still bewitching him to destroy this scroll.

"Ruined him! Ruined him! ”

"All you need is the Scourge Legion! You don't need it! There's no need to consume materials to build this machine! ”

"Ruined him! Ruined him! ”

Qi Rin, who felt the gradual irritability of his emotions, shook his head vigorously, and shouted in his heart: "It's not your turn to call the shots!" Get out! ”

Perhaps it was Qi Rin's words that brought about the effect, and the demonic whispers slowly dissipated.

But he is well aware that this is only a temporary suppression.

In the future, this demagogic demonic whisper will still appear.

"Could this whispering auditory hallucinations be related to the decline of physical fitness?"

Qi Rin looked at the only half of the healing potions left on the table, and fell into deep thought.

After a while, he quickly took out all the currency he had accumulated from the spatial ring.

The sound of the tinkling currency on the table was so beautiful.

With these cuties, Qi Rin was able to buy a lot of injections from the merchant to suppress the decline of his physique.

"Maybe when your physique slows down, so does that kind of auditory hallucination."

After some counting, Qi Rin took back these cuties.

"One hundred copper coins are one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins are one gold coin."

"There are about three gold coins at the moment."

Qi Rin is a little tempted to use the flare stick to summon the merchant.

In addition to buying the items he needs, he has a few questions that need answers.

But soon, the last remaining sanity told him that the items that summoned the merchant were too precious and that he should wait.

"Summon new units at level 20 as soon as possible, and then summon merchants with more currency."

Qi Rin squinted his eyes and pondered how to maximize the use of his precious props.

"When the time comes, you can also sell wave information fees by the way, and then wait for the rabbit to make two more money."

Just as Qi Rin was thinking, the ghost striker who was heading towards the Athens Hotel reported to him: "Master, the third brother has found the merchant you told you to pay attention to before!" ”

Well???

Qi Rin didn't have time to think, so he quickly took out all the currency and handed it to the black wind in the house: "Take these and go to the third child." ”

"Obey the will of my emperor!"

Then Qi Rin exerted his consciousness and came to the third child in a change of vision.

The square is blocked by abandoned vehicles.

The merchant was heading towards Wanda Plaza.

He carried a huge bag over one abandoned vehicle after another.

The toad at his feet, with pus on its back, croaked and jumped after him.

In the ghostly vision of Qi Rin's consciousness.

The merchant seems to be tired of walking.

As soon as I sat on the car, I unbuttoned my coat and started fanning.

"Really tired?"

Qi Rin was a little puzzled.

In the previous life, it was rumored that all the Chosen One or Demon Seed who provoked the merchants were turned into statues and stood in Nanzhili City.

No one knows how powerful a merchant is.

But the strength of the merchant is a fact.

An indisputable fact.

At this moment, the merchant's bare green skin was covered with dense beads of sweat.

It looks like I'm really tired.

But Qi Rin didn't believe that this powerful character who sold all kinds of props would get tired.

"Maybe there's another purpose."

Qi Rin pondered: "It will take a while for the black wind to arrive, so let's observe first." ”

At the top of the vehicle, the merchant was tasting a monkey-brain-like thing.

His face looked pleasant.

The toad at his feet also crossed Erlang's legs and began to read.

The wrecked city seemed to them to be just an ordinary background, and they didn't feel the danger in the slightest.

"Oak!"

Smack!

The merchant kicked the toad next to him who was reading with relish, brushed the sparse hair on the top of his head and said, "Oak, do you know? ”

The toad croaked twice and said, "Idiot, I know a fart!" ”

The merchant didn't care about the toad's disgusted tone, and said to himself, "Oak, most demon species are just brainless beasts that love to kill, because that's the will of the gods who created it. ”

"Oak, and many of the humans are beasts, real monsters."

Qi Rin on the side felt that something was wrong.

Although he was a bit of a persecution paranoia when he returned from rebirth, it also brought him extreme acuity.

"Why do you think he said this to the people next to him?"

"There's no one around, except"

"Me!"

Qi Rin felt that there must be a demon when something went wrong, but he couldn't find any evidence.

He controlled the ghost and looked around, but found no one or anything that could move.

There were only the wreckage of vehicles and the corpses of creatures everywhere.

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Rin decided to continue to listen to what medicine was sold in the merchant's gourd.

The merchant continued to shake his head and answer to himself, "Oak, the evil of many monsters is not intentional, they usually just follow their own instincts, and there is no shortage of souls full of true feelings among the demon seeds. ”

"Idiot! You mean I have to eat less, don't you? The toad flipped the pages and replied angrily.

The merchant patted the bottom of the vehicle, making a clattering sound.

"Oak! Just know how to eat! What else would you do besides eating! You useless scumbag! ”

Qi Rin on the side was even more confused.

Toad eats demon seeds?

Is it really just tired and then small talking?

Qi Rin's thoughts were fluctuating, but he heard the merchant continue: "Oak, among those demon seeds, there are bear monsters who were once cursed for doing evil, but they really fell in love with vampire monsters. ”

"There are also shapeshifters who have an extraordinary business acumen and just want to make a living in the city."

"Oak, I've also seen a werewolf who has never hurt anyone even though he has taken on the form of a wolf, he loves to pet cats, and has raised a group of poor homeless stray kittens."

There was a hint of remembrance in the merchant's mung bean-like eyes: "He also traded a rare piece of blue equipment for cat food, cat grass, toys and other gadgets from human settlements"

The merchant sighed, "They are just monsters persecuted by the world, more like humans with some quirks or flaws, and they deserve mercy and help. ”

"Oak, in comparison, the intrigue between people is even uglier."

The toad croaked and cried, "Shut up, fool! ”

The merchant continued to shake his head, "Oak, I remember someone bribing the werewolf with a purple gold coin to help destroy a human settlement. ”

"Oak, those people always think that money can buy everything, but the werewolf does not blindly obey, I still remember what the werewolf said to me and his observance: do not take evil as small, whether the evil is small, big, or not small, evil is evil."

"Oak, be a god"

When the merchant said this, he hurriedly changed his words: "When a person or a demon seed is so powerful that the world is shocked, the only thing that can restrain him is his own inner morality and principles. ”

Qi Rin, who had been observing from a distance, was even more confused in his heart.

What does this mean?

If it's for yourself, is it just to talk about some so-called philosophy of life?

If it's small talk, how can you think this businessman is a little sentimental?

Not at all in line with his image of a shrewd businessman!

Qi Rin was thinking.

The Black Samurai Black Wind came from the far end of the street.

Qi Rin's soul descended and quickly switched to the black wind and took control.

The magic patterns on Black Wind's legs shone brightly, and his figure rushed towards the merchant.

Qi Rin's undead forces have surrounded the vicinity of the Athens Hotel.

After dealing with the merchant's related matters, he must transfer the main body, and then prepare for the demon seed hunt in the Athens Hotel in full swing.

The nature of the mycelium touching the demon seed alerted him.

In the eyes of the nodes that need to develop rapidly at the moment, Qi Rin must do it himself and cannot be lazy.

Soon, Black Wind came to the merchant's side.

Qi Rin controlled the black wind and thought about how the other party gave up to him when he first met the merchant.

Arched his hand and said, "Your store."

Before Hei Feng's hoarse voice was finished, he saw the merchant turn his back to him and say, "Oak! This store only conducts business with humans, and has not opened the undead business for the time being. ”

Qi Rin: ????

Qi Rin was speechless and ordered Black Wind to wait in place.

Immediately, the main body began to rush towards the merchant.

But to Qi Rin's surprise.

When he arrived at the merchant, the merchant sat on top of the vehicle, as if waiting for him to arrive.

Qi Rin squinted, strode forward and said like a merchant, "It's been a long time since I've seen a merchant." ”

This sentence seemed to turn on some kind of switch for the merchant, and he jumped up from the top of the vehicle with a bang!

Boom!

Then the short body slammed into the roof of the vehicle, creating a groove.

The merchant arched his hand, strode away from the vehicle, trotted in front of Qi Rin, raised his head and said, "Oak Oak!" Isn't this a VIP Gold card customer of the shop? ”

"Oak! How are the guests doing? ”

Qi Rin was silent for a while, and then replied, "Your store is still so enthusiastic, everything is fine." ”

"Oak Oak! That's good, that's good! The businessman's enthusiasm is as if he has seen an old friend after many years.

With a thud, the merchant threw the large bag on his back to the ground.

Then he asked enthusiastically towards Qi Rin: "I really have a lot of fate with the guests!" What do guests want to buy? Or do you want to sell something? ”

Qi Rin ignored the conspiracy theories in his mind and quickly talked about the issues he was most concerned about.

"In addition to selling items, can you answer some of my personal questions?"

Qi Rin said and took the money bag handed by Hei Feng and handed it to the merchant: "Of course, I won't let your store work in vain. ”

The merchant happily opened the money bag, and after just a glance, he was surprised: "Oak! I haven't seen you for a few days, and the guest actually has gold coins? What a surprise to the shop! ”

Qi Rin was silent, watching the merchant wait for the result.

The merchant's eyes purred: "Of course, the small shop is out to sell, but you have to find a professional for some information: traveler, the small shop can only answer some basic questions, and the price is expensive!" ”

"Oak, please consider it!"

Traveler?

Qi Rin searched for memories of his previous life, but found no relevant information.

Not even the gossip associated with the name.

Qi Rin buried the name deep in his heart, and then smiled at the merchant: "I believe in the credibility of your store, I just ask, if your store feels that the currency is not enough, you can refuse to answer." ”

Considering that the merchant is a monopoly business.

Qi Rin simply chose to be single, so that he also seemed generous.

The merchant laughed and replied, "What a bold guest! The small shop likes such a refreshing customer! Just ask, the shop will give you a fair price! ”

Seeing this, Qi Rin quickly asked, "First question, I want to know why, as I level up, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain experience points?" ”

Qi Rin still remembered that when he first killed the blood vine, he crossed several levels in a row.

But the two demon seeds that were killed later did not cross too many levels.

This made Qi Rin's heart full of worries.

Most of the information he knew about the location of the demon seed was brought by some rumors in the previous life.

For example, a certain demon seed appeared in such and such a place, how many people were killed, but it was amazing, how how.

Qi Rin knew very well in his heart that those demon seeds were not ordinary brainless corpse beasts or mutants. 、

The further back they go, the higher the IQ of those demon seeds.

And the strange self-talk of the merchant just now also shows that the group of demon seeds does not seem to be as simple as simple monsters.

But Qi Rin wasn't in the mood to think about those things for the time being.

He just wanted to know the experience value, which was a matter of his future plans.

The merchant thought for a moment, and then replied: "Oak, the Chosen One panel of the guests is actually used to view their own situation in real time, so that they can better know themselves and their opponents. ”

"The so-called experience point is actually the degree of evolution, and the guest can also be understood as a progress bar."

"And evolution, what is needed is energy, for example, this world is undergoing transformation, and various magical supernatural elements have gradually appeared in the air."

The merchant pointed to the mist in the distance and said, "Oak, even if the Chosen ones don't do anything, as the world transformation process accelerates, the human body will naturally absorb some free energy, in other words, the experience points on the Chosen One's panel will increase." ”

Looking at Qi Rin's pensive appearance, the merchant continued: "Of course, killing the demon seed will speed up this energy, that is, speed up the progress of experience points. ”

"The shackles on the human genetic chain are inherently fixed, as long as a few people are born to open some shackles, the specific meaning is, for example, some people are born smart, some people are tall, and some people run fast."

"But these are just a few people, but with the great transformation of the world, everyone can break through the genetic shackles through energy accumulation."

"This kind of energy, the energy contained in different demon species is also different, if the guest wants to level up quickly, then the best way is to kill more different demon seeds to obtain those different energies that can break through the genetic shackles."

"When the energy storage is full, the genetic shackles are opened, and this is the upgrade!"

"But as the number of genetic shackles is opened, the upper limit of the subsequent energy storage will also increase."

The merchant took out a bottle of strange-looking drink, took two sips and continued: "But what about rapid upgrades, it's not good or not, guests should have seen that those corpse beasts disintegrated into meat paste because they upgraded too quickly. ”

The merchant shrugged: "Of course, humans have the Chosen One panel, so naturally they don't have to worry about this kind of disintegration, but relatively speaking, the speed at which the genetic shackles are opened, that is, the speed at which they are upgraded, is not as fast as that of corpse beasts." ”

"Guest!" The merchant said in an aggravated tone, "Sometimes it's not a bad thing to be slow. ”

But obviously, Qi Rin, who only wanted to level up quickly and put the Scourge's legion out, didn't particularly care about the last words of the merchant.

Qi Rin smiled and said, "Maybe it's more stable to be slower, but if it's too slow."

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the gnawed human remains in the vehicle next to him, "It's going to be like this." ”

The merchant shrugged, "Oak, I understand the mood of the guest. ”

Qi Rin thought for a while and said, "So, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to open the genetic shackles, and if I want to level up quickly, I must kill more demon seeds, and preferably different kinds of demon seeds?" ”
