NOVEL NEXT Chapter 9 Absorption! Space cutting!
Complaints aside, Wang Mingyang knows very well that this fusion function of the Zhutian Reading System is very powerful.
In his previous life, Wang Mingyang was deeply persecuted by weak abilities and barely raised his own abilities to the fifth level. However, the five 'F'-level abilities were too weak. Even if they were raised to the fifth level, they could not match the combat power of the fifth level.
But with this fusion function, it is different. Even the most useless abilities may turn around. You only need to invest a lot of reading points, and the rest depends on luck.
At first glance, the ice armor technique is a bit weird, but its own defense is definitely much better than the bubble technique and the tortoise shell technique. From the literal meaning, the ability of this ice armor technique is a combination of three abilities. If you don't look at the negative effects, it is still very good overall.
Now there are only 'silk spinning technique', 'underwater breathing technique' and 'communication technique' left. Wang Mingyang doesn't want to continue to merge them for the time being, and there is no need. These three abilities are not offensive or defensive abilities, but only have some auxiliary effects. For him now, they are not very meaningful.
"System, if I upgrade you now, how long will it take to complete?"
[Ding! The host's reading value is enough for the first stage upgrade, but the whole process takes 1 hour, and during this hour, the host will not gain any reading value or superpowers by reading books. 】
"(⊙o⊙)..."
Okay, Wang Mingyang thought about it and decided not to upgrade the system for the time being. He urgently needs to obtain the superpower of space cutting. At the very least, he has to spend time extracting other superpowers from other books, otherwise his combat effectiveness will be slightly insufficient after the doomsday tomorrow.
"System, no upgrade for the time being, let's talk about it tomorrow at noon."
After a short rest, Wang Mingyang continued to return to his desk and study "A Brief History of Time"...
[Ding! It was detected that the host had just read "A Brief History of Time", and extracted A-level superpower 'Mustard Space' fragment +1, S-level superpower 'Time Still' fragment +1, Mustard Space superpower: 2/8, Time Still superpower: 1/20. [Reward reading value 1000 points]
Finally, when he finished reading for the second time, Wang Mingyang suddenly found that the system actually extracted a piece of "time stillness" ability fragment, which made him ecstatic.
This is the second S-level ability read out!
Although this ability requires 20 fragments to complete, but... this is a time-related ability!
Space is king, time is supreme!
I didn't expect that a book could extract both space and time-related abilities at the same time.
Although it's just a fragment, but... the future is promising!
Wang Mingyang has imagined that he would wave his hand casually, and the whole world would stop moving, and only he would walk in the world like a god...
Goose, goose, goose.
A smile bloomed on his face, and he couldn't stop laughing.
But after a while, Wang Mingyang calmed down. The time ability is very powerful, but the time and energy required to complete it at this moment is huge. It is definitely impossible to complete this feat before the end of the world.
Moreover, through reading "A Brief History of Time" twice, Wang Mingyang's understanding of space has deepened. He decided to go back and continue to study "Dimensional Space". Maybe he will gain something.
More than an hour later, the long-awaited prompt sounded in Wang Mingyang's mind.
[Ding! It is detected that the host is familiar with "Dimensional Space". Extract S-level superpower "Space Cutting" fragment +1, Space Cutting superpower: 10/10. Reward the host with 100 points of reading value. ]
Finally, 10 fragments are collected!
It's really not easy!
[Ding! It is detected that the S-level superpower "Space Cutting" fragments are enough and can be synthesized. Does the host want to synthesize? ]
"Do you still need to ask? Definitely synthesize!"
[Ding! Synthesis is successful, obtain S-level superpower "Space Cutting", consume 1000 points of reading value. The host's current reading value: 11701 points. Does the host want to absorb this superpower? 】
"Absorb!"
Wang Mingyang couldn't wait to experience this long-known supernatural power, so he chose to absorb it decisively.
As for the 1,000 reading points required for synthesis, it was not in his consideration at all.
As the command was issued, an inexplicable feeling emerged from his brain. In just a few seconds, Wang Mingyang felt that his whole body was as transparent and refreshed as if he had been enlightened. The fatigue and sleepiness of studying hard all night were swept away.
His originally thin figure seemed to have been replenished with energy, and he became visibly fuller, and his whole body became tall and strong.
And the method of using the space cutting supernatural power came to his mind. Wang Mingyang's heart was throbbing, and he stretched out his hand and waved it gently outside the window.
I saw a 30-centimeter-long black arc shooting out from the fingertips, as if an invisible blade passed through the light box sign on the roof of another building ten meters away and disappeared in the air.
And the light box sign slowly cracked after a while, and the upper half fell to the side, and the broken end was as smooth as a mirror.
"Hiss... the power is a bit terrifying, this is just the primary level, not even the first level."
Wang Mingyang looked at the light box sign that was broken in half in the distance, then looked down at his palm and muttered to himself.
The strength of superpowers depends on the quality when awakened, and the other key factor is the degree of development of the superpowers by the owner.
Superpowers will continue to evolve as the awakener's strength increases, and will become more and more powerful. This is also the reason why some gifted awakeners in the end times are ultimately inferior to those with lower awakening quality.
Feeling the energy in his body, he estimated that he could release eight space-cutting blades of this power at this moment. The number was a little less, but the power was amazing.
Even if he faced a group of zombies, as long as the angle was right, a space-cutting blade would cut the zombies in the entire line within a distance of ten meters in half.
Moreover, his body would be strengthened at the same time as his superpowers awakened. His physical fitness was about twice that of an ordinary person at this moment, while in his previous life, he awakened the ‘F’-level superpowers, and the physical strengthening he obtained was negligible.
Now, as long as he had a good weapon in his hand, and with the experience of surviving for five years in his previous life and fighting zombies and mutant creatures, Wang Mingyang could live well.
A strong feeling of hunger came, and Wang Mingyang quickly grabbed the food piled in the corner and ate it in big mouthfuls.
He didn't recover until he had eaten ten packs of pig's trotters, five chicken legs, and two packs of instant noodles. The awakening of superpowers will strengthen the body, but it will also consume a lot of energy, so food needs to be replenished in time.
He looked at the time. It was already five in the morning. In seven hours, the end of the world would come.
Thinking of this, Wang Mingyang couldn't help but look at the other books on the table, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
He quickly returned to the table. There were still seven hours left. He could do a lot. Maybe he could extract a few powerful superpowers.
He already had the means of attack. It would be better to have a defensive ability. In this way, he could basically sweep through the early days of the end of the world. Even if he encountered a powerful zombie that mutated in the early stage, he could easily deal with it.
Thinking of this, Wang Mingyang's eyes passed through the books related to fire and lightning, and fell on the third book "Basics of Metallurgy".
He calmed down and began to look through this book.
However, just by looking at the densely packed catalog, Wang Mingyang knew that most of the remaining time would need to be spent on this book.
