Chapter 59: Automatic Healing
Zhang Wei, who was obediently lying on the fragments of the brutal mantis bee's nest, was unusually calm at the moment, not only was his limbs broken and his internal organs were injured, but also except for the parts that touched the ground such as his back and buttocks, which were burned black, and his skin was rotten, and he felt like roasted sweet potatoes.
Outside Zhang Wei's body, the flames were still burning, but once these burning flames had a tendency to cover him, they would gradually extinguish because the fire element was sucked by Zhang Wei. It was also thanks to Zhang Wei's good luck that the fruits of the two giant trees behind him that were crushed into mud cakes provided him with a lot of wood element energy. These wood elements repaired Zhang Wei's body while blocking the baking of the flames, so that Zhang Wei would not be directly roasted by the blazing temperature.
When Zhang Wei slammed the pillar on the Brutal Mantis Hive before, the elemental energy in his body had already consumed a lot, coupled with his full force that directly interrupted the pillar on the Brutal Mantis Hive, the little elemental energy that was left was directly consumed by a punch.
If it weren't for the abundant wood elemental energy contained in the fruits of these two giant trees and the air below the giant tree he was in, even if Zhang Wei could wake up today, he would have ended up being roasted at the end of his limbs.
Zhang Wei, who was unusually calm, was not experiencing the feeling of burning and the wonderful taste of broken hands and feet at the moment, what he was thinking about at this moment was why he had absorbed so much elemental energy before, but now he felt that the elemental energy in his body was scarce.
This poor guy has opened his mind at the moment and has begun to study these crucial questions~!
In fact, the reason is very simple, the elemental energy entering Zhang Wei's body is not stored by his body for the first time, but is immediately absorbed by the cells and uses these elemental energy to transform the body's genes, so as to play a role in transforming the body. That is to say, the elemental energy has entered his body, but 'they' have been used up. Do you want to use it now?Sorry, it's irreversible after use~!
Only when the absorption of elemental energy exceeds the rate of absorption and transformation of cells, the cells in Zhang Wei's body will store these excess elemental energy in the cells.
This is the reason why Zhang Wei felt that he had absorbed a huge amount of elemental energy, but when he used it, he felt that the elemental energy contained in his body was very small.
And what Zhang Wei didn't know was that the physique of his [Elemental Apostle] made the cells in his body consume a very huge amount when transformed, so even if there was a lot of elemental energy stored in his body, it would be consumed for a long time.
And as his body is constantly transformed by cells, the energy consumed during transformation will continue to increase. When absorbed, it will be consumed more by the body, and it will be continuously consumed every moment. Under the conditions of these two tragedies, he will become stronger and stronger at the same time, he will become more and more 'hungry'.
Of course, Zhang Wei didn't completely guess this, he just roughly guessed that his body would consume these elemental energy~!
Time passed slowly, and the few surviving brutal mantis bees gradually left the place. Because in their opinion, the giant tree is very dangerous now, and it is necessary to find a suitable place to place their larvae again. Among the brutal mantinets that have escaped are those that have just grown into stronger, but their numbers have become extremely rare.
Because there had been a rainstorm not long ago, the ground and the grass were very wet, so there was no spectacular sight of the fire.
Inadvertently, the strange beasts on the grassland were lucky to escape the catastrophe~!
After a long time, the flames in the raft made by Zhang Wei gradually extinguished first, and then the flames around Zhang Wei began to become less intense. The moon in the steppe also began to gradually set below the horizon, and the sun gradually rose in the sky.
As the darkness faded and dawn rose, the giant trees and weeds began to fade from their fluorescent glow.
The huge cloud ring around the giant tree began to turn purple red with the sunlight little by little, and the giant tree became as beautiful and enchanting as a fairy in the shrine.
At this time, the small beasts who had been hiding in the distance and observing the movement here all night found that the two flames that had been burning all night had finally been extinguished. They gradually realized that today's dawn was very different from the past, and that there were no bands of ferocious insects flying in all directions from all over the canopy of the sacred tree to hunt for food. And today's sacred tree is unusually quiet, without the humming sound that scares them.
So these witnesses, who had been lit by two flames last night, began to try to get closer to the giant tree. Because they did not dare to move closer to the giant tree at night, they had no idea what happened to the brutal mantis bees at night.
When the flames around Zhang Wei were almost all extinguished, his injuries had already healed. All but the left calf, which was leaking bone, were almost healed. The internal organs are the fastest to repair, so there is no pain in the chest and abdomen now. A layer of skin has also grown back on his body, but the hair on his whole body has been burned clean. The skin can be repaired quickly, but the hair can't grow back quickly. So it's pitiful from head to toe now, and it doesn't even have a single hair~!
The ancient shield under the body was almost scrapped when it was barbecued, and whether it could be used or whether it could play the role of a shield was two to say.
Zhang Wei, who got up slowly, tried to move his arm and right leg, although he felt that there would be a faint pain when he used his strength, but it was already much better.
Zhang Wei, who abandoned the ancient shield and turned into a naked person again, began to climb towards the giant tree. Although his limbs have basically recovered except for his left calf, these newly recovered limbs can't be too hard. So he didn't walk on one leg with a limp, without tools.
Zhang Wei climbed towards the giant tree in order to be able to absorb the wood element contained in the giant tree more quickly, and now he was extremely weak. Without weapons, the arms can't be forced, and the skin has just recovered a little and hasn't recovered to its previous state, so it can't withstand the attacks of alien beasts or brutal mantises.
However, the good news is that because recovering the body will not consume the fire element, Zhang Wei's body has absorbed and stored a lot of fire element in the process of being roasted for such a long time.
It's just that the current Zhang Wei won't use these elemental energies~!
Fortunately, the place where he fell was not too far from the body of the giant tree, and after climbing for a long time, Zhang Wei came to the body of the giant tree. He found a thick tree root that was exposed and climbed it directly, and then he greedily absorbed the wood element contained in the root.
Zhang Wei didn't care about whether his behavior would cause damage to this giant tree, because his main purpose now was to recover his body as soon as possible so that he could have the ability to save his life.
A large amount of wood elements poured into Zhang Wei's body like a tide, and the surging wood elements were quickly absorbed by every cell in his body.
Zhang Wei's injuries are also constantly recovering rapidly, and his skin is gradually beginning to become tough and shiny. The muscles of the arms and legs begin to gradually regain strength, and the bones begin to become stronger. Even the bare bones of the left leg began to gradually return to their original positions under the squeezing of the muscles and the slight contractions again and again, and the injuries were gradually recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It didn't take long for Zhang Wei to feel that his body was almost recovered. He looked down at his left calf, which had been leaking out, and now that the bone had grown and even the punctured skin was as smooth as ever.
At this moment, Zhang Wei exhaled a long breath, and his anxious and nervous heart became relaxed little by little.
Although Zhang Wei's injuries had recovered, his actions of absorbing the elements of the giant trees had not changed at all. Because of this experience, he deeply realized the importance of elemental energy to himself, and even a longing for elemental energy had sprouted in his heart.
After Zhang Wei absorbed it for a long time, he gradually stopped this crazy taking.
Because at this moment, he found that the small weeds that had been attached to the roots of the giant tree's unusually thick and unusually large had withered. Moreover, the original dark green root was no longer so green at the moment, and he felt that if he continued to suck this huge root, he would suck it to death.
Out of awe or respect for this giant tree, Zhang Wei decided to give up this root, wait for himself to take a break, adjust his mentality, change the root, and continue to suck.
Zhang Wei didn't know if this giant tree that didn't know how many years it had lived would make this giant tree 'angry'.
Zhang Wei, who got up and moved his hands and feet, suddenly found again that the clothes he had just made were gone. He was really a little angry, didn't he wear his clothes every time. It's just that he doesn't know that there is no god in charge of clothing in this world~!
Extremely depressed, Zhang Wei returned to the place where he had been baking for a long time before, and he took out the ancient shield. Since he made this ancient shield, it has not played much of a role other than to cushion his back. The ancient shield has been baked and is a little brittle. Moreover, the light blue spar on the back of the ancient shield was also shattered into residue after he inadvertently absorbed the water elemental energy inside. The beast teeth that were originally hidden behind the ancient shield were also roasted at the moment, and they looked like they couldn't be used.
Zhang Wei felt that now he was back to when he first came to this world, with nothing but himself. Oh yes, he shouldn't have a hair at all right now~!
