Chapter 42: Energy control
The cave is dim, and the dim sky shines through the top of the twisted wood.
The dark cave is full of intertwined root vines. At the bottom of the cave, a huge ice python with a length of more than ten meters lies on a pile of staggered root vines, like a prey caught by a fishing net. .
It is dead!
Below the ice python's corpse, the root system is intertwined and densely clustered, intertwined into a messy frosty cocoon, occupying most of the cave.
The roots are extremely hard and stronger than the twisted wood trunk outside.
A faint trace of chill permeated from the giant frost cocoon, as if it was wrapped in a huge block of ice.
Qi Yuan sat on the crystal clear head of the ice python, looked at the huge body of the ice python over ten meters, and shook his head slightly.
The strength of the ice python is indeed very strong. The breath of frost containing the power of freezing can freeze a person into an ice sculpture in just a few seconds. Even a second-order transcendent can hardly resist this chill. Invasion.
However, its defense was a little short. A few seconds of freezing a person was enough for Qi Yuan to give it a fatal shot.
The armor-piercing projectile with annihilation warhead is blessed, and even the second-order defense can penetrate, not to mention an ice python.
was just a shot. Qi Yuan sent the bullet from the huge mouth of the ice python's open fangs into its cavity, hit the heart, and ended its life.
The ice python is dead!
Qi Yuan still has a faint frost hung on his body, and even his breath is full of bone-chilling chills. This is the price of taking half of his frost breath head-on.
The temperature in the cave was approaching zero degrees. Qi Yuan waited for a few minutes until his almost frozen body slowly recovered a little warmth.
is in the center of the layers of roots, and the light beam at the sign-in point is clearly visible.
Qi Yuan jumped down from the ice python's corpse, calculated the distance to sign the beam, and then stretched his right hand along the gap between the roots, until he tucked his entire shoulder in, finally touched the sign beam .
"Sign in successfully, reward one talent point!"
Listening to the familiar feedback, the corners of Qi Yuan's mouth rose slightly, and another extraordinary ability has arrived!
"What is this thing wrapped in it?"
Qi Yuan, who signed in successfully, squinted at the core surrounded by layers of vines. When signing in, he accidentally touched it, and felt a ray of chill that was more frosty than the breath of frost.
"I don't know if this thing inside can integrate talent points and light up new talents!"
Qi Yuan tentatively stretched his hand in again, a wisp of chill penetrated his body, but Qi Yuan did not let go, a strange look appeared in his eyes.
can fuse!
Qi Yuan suddenly thought of the alien metal trying to the basement chamber. The two refresh locations seemed to be a guide to his awakening ability.
A mysterious power is guiding oneself to fuse, to light up certain abilities that it has selected!
Qi Yuan only hesitated for two seconds before making a choice.
The talent points instantly merged with the core wrapped in layers of giant root cocoons, turning into a peculiar energy that flooded into the talent tree, lighting up a brand new ability.
With the emergence of new talent abilities, the powerful energy fed back from the talent tree once again dispersed into the limbs, and Qi Yuan's body was transformed.
In a trance, Qi Yuan felt that his body was thrown into a huge energy furnace.
Endless energy poured in from every pore, gathered in my chest cavity, and finally formed a brand new heart on the right side of my heart.
Feeling the completely different heartbeat in his body, Qi Yuan suddenly came back to his senses!
The heart of energy condensed!
This is energy control!
Qi Yuan retracted his right hand from the gap between the roots and vines. The core thing surrounded by the vines still exists, but it no longer exudes the chill, as if it has become an ordinary stone.
The refresh point appears here, is it really as I guessed, because of this core full of frost power?
Qi Yuan felt the energy heart in his body, and suddenly found that the heart was filled with a powerful force of frost.
Is this the energy I absorb?
Qi Yuan's face changed slightly. Compared with steel defense and steel power, the ability of energy control did not directly increase the melee strength of the body, and unlike the control of annihilation warheads and firearms, it could enhance the ability of long-range strikes.
Its biggest effect is that it can improve the control of energy, a bit like the ability of the element domain.
The heart in the body is like an energy control center. It can not only control energy, but also store and absorb energy.
A small part of the frost energy of the core that was wrapped just now has been stored in the energy heart.
First-order energy control, the energy that can be stored is limited, and only a small part of the frost energy makes the energy heart in a state of fullness, unable to absorb more energy.
"There was an extra energy heart, am I still a human being?" Qi Yuan suddenly had a strange thought in his heart.
At this moment, Nie Xiu and others outside seemed to be unable to wait. The snake ghost entered from the top entrance of the twisted wood. On the head and feet, like a four-legged snake, it followed the interlaced vine root system all the way down, into the dark. In the cave.
Snake Ghost cautiously passed through the root system of the entwined mountains. It seemed that there would be a hole in this tree hole, and dense plant rhizomes would occupy most of the space.
As it slowly deepened, the snake ghost's eyes slowly began to adapt to the darkness of the cave. Slowly, he saw the figure of an ice python entwined in the center of the vine.
Snake Ghost's eyes became excited.
The flesh and blood of ice pythons are valuable goods, and the reputation of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce has always been good. There has never been a vicious incident of black eating black. Such a big python can be exchanged for at least two Tier 2 potions, plus that piece full of frost. It’s even possible to exchange for a piece of real mechanical weapon with the alien metal of the power.
As long as we digest the gains from this mission, the three of our brothers will join forces. Even if we have a firm foothold in the steel tank, we can try to compete for more lucrative missions, instead of just picking up some other people's leftovers like now. The leftovers are cold.
The ice python exudes a faint chill, lying motionless among the vines, as if asleep, the snake ghost hesitated for a while, or continued to move closer, the existence of the ice python has been confirmed, just confirm that the one is full of frost With the existence of Zhili's dissimilar metals, this news can sell for a big price.
Under the premise of guaranteeing the precious things, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce is even willing to send its own hands to deal with the ice python and the ore inside. This is a shortcut for many weak wilderness hunters to make a fortune.
There is another prerequisite for doing this, and that is the authenticity of the news.
It's hard to get on the line with the blind man of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce. If you dare to fool the other party with false news, the result is definitely not something that you can bear with a few second-tier ones.
When the cooperation is happy, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce is a reputable partner, but when you deceive it, the powerful strength of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce will also make the people who deceive it pay the price!
The Black Gold Chamber of Commerce was able to gain a foothold in the steel battle station in just a few short years, and even crushed the veteran Buddha Chamber of Commerce.
relies on not only good reputation, but also strong strength!
Ordinary wilderness hunters don’t care about their own feathers in the face of interest, but the stronger the chamber of commerce, the more they pay attention to their credibility. No one is willing to trade with a chamber of commerce that is far stronger than themselves, and will deal with black hands, with a good reputation. This is the key to the Chamber of Commerce attracting wilderness hunters to trade.
The snake ghost approached cautiously little by little. It was not worried that the ice python would violently hurt people. Since the body mutated and appeared snake-like characteristics, the snake ghost knew that he was no longer an ordinary person. In addition to the weird power brought about by genes, the biggest change that genes bring to oneself is that they can simply communicate with snakes so that snakes, insects and beasts can treat themselves as similar. As long as they are not too aggressive snakes and beasts, basically Will not take the initiative to attack themselves.
Snake ghost kept spitting out the forked tongue, sensing the residual breath in the air.
The snakelike tongue brings an extraordinary ability similar to the perceptual domain. In addition to perceiving the smell of the target remaining in the air, it can also perceive the existence of the target through heat.
The air in the cave was extremely cold. In addition to the breath of the ice python, the remaining breath of Qi Yuan also existed, but the tongue did not feel the heat of the two.
The body temperature of the ice python is cold, so I can’t perceive it. Then where did Qi Yuan go?
was swallowed by an ice python, so you can't perceive his existence?
Snake Ghost vaguely found the answer. This underground cave is not too big. Although it is impossible to see the scene clearly because of the intertwined roots and dim light, the perception of the tongue is not wrong.
Qi Yuan’s heat source disappeared, there is only one possibility, that is, he was eaten by an ice python!
Snake Ghost slowly approached the ice python. He knew very well the habits of the ice python and knew that it would not be too far away from the alien ice ore, so the alien ice ore must be not far away from the ice python.
Snake ghost moves more and more carefully, lest it disturb the sleeping ice python.
Although the ice python’s offensiveness is not strong, it will not actively attack the same kind, but once it is considered as an invading enemy, it will fall into danger.
Although the second-order speed enhancement can escape the chase of the ice python, the frost breath of the ice python is very dangerous, as long as it is spit out, there is a possibility of being frozen into an ice sculpture.
Slowly and slowly, the snake ghost approached the ice python. When the distance between the two sides was reduced to about five meters, most of the ice python's body came into view.
Snake Ghost suddenly noticed something was wrong, the ice python lying on the vines in front of him didn't seem to be sleeping, but rather a little bit dead.
The ice python is dead?
Snake Ghost was taken aback by his sudden thought, and then he shook his head, trying to suppress the thought.
It is impossible for the ice python to die, otherwise who ate Qi Yuan?
In this cave, there is no longer any breath of other insects and beasts!
But as the distance gets closer, the strange thought becomes stronger and stronger, and the ice python in front of me becomes more and more like a dead thing.
Is the ice python really dead?
Snake Ghost swallowed. He stared at the huge body of the ice python, but he did not find a trace of the wound, but he did not find a trace of survival.
Snake Ghost felt his heart beating violently, he subconsciously stretched out his tongue, and felt the surrounding air again. It was still only cold, without any heat source.
Snake ghost's hanging heart was slightly lowered, without noticing that, behind the root vine not far from the ice python, a figure holding a saber was staring at him faintly.
Frost and chill spread all over the body, and Qi Yuan is a piece of cold ice without any heat in the temperature perception that snake ghosts rely so much on.
Snake Ghost carefully narrowed the distance with the ice python, without noticing it at all, he was getting closer and closer to Qi Yuan, and he was about to approach the distance where the saber could directly attack.
The ice python lay silently on the root vine, with a faint layer of frost spreading on the surface, and suddenly the snake ghost smelled a faint smell of blood.
Until this moment, the snake ghost discovered that strands of chilly red blood spilled from the corner of the ice python's mouth, dripping little by little on the root vines under it!
The ice python is really dead!
Who killed it!
The blood hasn't dried up yet, the killer is nearby!
Snake Ghost's hairs were standing upright, and a substantive frosty breath came from all directions, instantly condensing into a cold killing intent!
go!
Ghost Snake's body is tense~www.readwn.com~ is about to leave the body of the ice python, suddenly a sound of breaking through the air is heard from close range behind him.
The enemy is behind me, why didn’t I perceive his presence?
Without waiting for the ghost snake to pull away, wrapped in Ling Li's chilly saber, a knife directly smashed into the ghost snake's back, the first-tier defense and snake scales displayed under the full burst of the first-tier steel power To the strong side, it greatly hinders the piercing of the blade and avoids the bad luck of being completely pierced.
The ice-cold blade was blocked by one-third of it. This kind of injury was not too serious for the first-order enhanced transcendents, but the ghost snake fell into deep despair in an instant.
A chill, comparable to the breath of frost, broke out in the body along the blade!
Snake Ghost clearly felt his own flesh and blood, and quickly stiffened under the erosion of the cold. The frozen blood pierced the blood vessels, pierced the internal organs, and even the heart became a frozen stone.
Guishe opened his mouth, trying to warn Nie Xiu and Sun Ye outside, but a cold palm directly covered his mouth, blocking his last vitality.
This cold palm let the ghost snake know the identity of the murderer.
is the Qi Yuan who should have been swallowed by the ice python!
He had concealed his own perception, so he could hand out the knife from behind!
He killed himself!
It was he who killed the ice python!
可——he is only a first order!
Insect Beast Detector will not lie!
How did he do that?
Qi Yuan withdrew the saber indifferently, and under the chill, there was not even a trace of blood spilled from the wound on the snake ghost's body.
With deep incomprehension and doubt, the snake ghost turned into a frozen corpse and lay with the ice python.
