Chapter 150 ·Faith, Steel Armor, Destined Death
The exchange of the main combat forces is almost over.
And next, it is the turn of the secondary combat power in the Zhongzhou team... and the fishing masses.
Zhang Jie makes a joke every day, saying that he needs to spend some time to slowly strengthen himself - this is a daily routine, and everyone present basically knows what the situation is. And the newcomer Zhao Yingkong is a cool guy who knows how to observe details. She saw that everyone else was pretending to be stupid, so naturally she would not show off her high IQ at this time.
And then, there is Chu Xuan.
"Strictly speaking, there is nothing I want to strengthen." The guy pushed up his glasses and maintained his normal indifference. "I have many projects on hand that require resources to process. Many of the key materials are quite expensive, and side plots are required to ensure the completion of the basic configuration."
"But means of self-protection may indeed be necessary. And after I thought about it carefully, there are also items similar to fantasy manifestation that can meet my needs."
Dream materialized, S-level enhancement—Although it was as early as 2007, the follow-up patches of Moon World seemed to have been applied to the exchange. Its essence is to modify reality with its own strong willpower. And what was dreamed up was not limited to material things, or simply thousands of troops.
It can directly generate natural or unnatural phenomena. Shape a three-dimensional space into a two-dimensional plane. Create an absolutely smooth and strong mutual barrier. Even the retrograde Sands of Time can be materialized with strong will. Thus, interference and adjustment of time and space can be achieved. As for the reshaping of the causal chain, the modification and correction of logic and physical constants... well, to do this kind of thing, it may not be enough to rely on the realization of fantasy, and maybe you need to use the God List.
It's very powerful, but too expensive to afford.
When Chu Xuan mentioned this, he naturally had corresponding thoughts.
"Willpower." Zhan Lan grasped the key points after examining the items of fantasy manifestation.
"Well," Chu Xuan nodded slightly. "This enhancement will be of great help in advancing my engineering projects. It can effectively reduce the time cost that I will spend in subsequent scientific research. So I regard it as a goal, and before that, I will choose effect reduction, The function is simple. But it is a lower-level enhancement with a similar nature... And a strong enough self-will is what I need."
Jiang Yu knew what he wanted to strengthen.
And Jiang Yu also knew that Chu Xuan’s explanation was correct. The focus is actually only on the last sentence...the Central Continent Team is useful to him. However, what he expected was the final result of the journey of reincarnation. But it is the acquisition of self and the repair of emotions. During this process, an A-level enhancement that was not part of his plan in the original world line but was forcibly placed on his head would make him reconsider it again and again.
——[The Power of Belief——The source of it is ‘Pan Science Fiction’, also known as ‘λ-drive’, based on the transformation of the brain level. Those who redeem will receive telekinesis with reality-modifying properties. The intensity of this thought power depends on the intelligence of the redeemer, and the reserve depends on the mental power attribute. However, after using the power of faith to a large extent, the redeemer will receive a certain degree of lifespan reduction. 】
——[To redeem this enhancement, you need to pay for an A-level branch story, and the reward points are 8,000 points. 】
"Life span reduced?" Zheng Zha showed a confused expression. He looked at himself, then at Jiang Yu, Zhan Lan, Cheng Xiao, and Cybertronian Mou Gang, who probably wouldn't change much for thousands of years. It's a little unclear in my head. "... Generally speaking, after exchanging high-level bloodline enhancements, our natural lifespan will be very long. And the restoration of the main god... Is this price really meaningful?"
"It makes sense." Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses. "Just see if you can change it."
"Uh..." Zheng Zha's expression froze.
"λ-drive is an improved ability that was created based on 'Full Metal Panic' and modified by the Lord God. It was originally used by the pilots of large mechas to produce attack or defense effects. Regardless of whether it is Before or after its improvement, it was limited to the category of humans, and the Lord God did not eliminate this restriction. What is very interesting is that even though the Isu people have a completely different gene chain structure from humans, they still Classified among humans.”
Chu Xuan gave an explanation... He rarely gave such a detailed explanation of his motives for wanting to do something. Perhaps, he was not trying to explain it to Zheng Zha.
Perhaps, he is just convincing himself - just like him in the original world line, no matter how he calculates, he does not need the power of belief.
"It suits me very well," he said, without asking anyone else's opinion. The strengthened light beam even dropped to his body in a hurry. Then, it turned into his power.
It should have been something that Zheng Zha forcibly paid for him to exchange for his safety. At this moment, he himself imposed it on his body - Jiang Yu didn't know what the reason was that promoted this change in Chu Xuan. but……
Change.
——If...there are really no feelings at all. Such an absolutely sane person. Why let the process proceed normally? But I have to do it by force myself...
——Forget it, what do I want to do with this? I can't understand the monster's thinking, so everything is fine as usual.
The light is gone.
Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses, and the color of his eyes changed slightly. His brows furrowed slightly, then quickly returned to normal.
"The effect is almost as expected." He gave a conclusion. "It should be able to accelerate my scientific research and provide some self-protection capabilities. However, if I want to fight head-on, I probably still can't do it."
Probably only Zheng Zha would believe this.
"Is this so..." Zheng Zha touched his chin. "...I always feel like this is a bit unfair to you...Well, I also have a C-level branch and a lot of reward points. What materials did Chu Xuanzu originally plan to buy? I'll buy them for you."
He really believed it!
"Wrong concept." Chu Xuan retorted extremely quickly. "Because of my personal philosophy, I took the initiative to become a support staff member who needed to be protected. As a reward for being protected, it is a reasonable allocation of functions to output scientific research results for the team. The so-called unfairness does not exist. On the contrary, you bought it for me. The matter of materials goes against the way this team has always behaved.”
Zheng Zha's face turned stiff again.
"Ah haha..." He smiled awkwardly and managed to smooth things over for himself. "Yeah... I forgot about this. I didn't realize it for a moment... Haha. I almost wanted to say that we would work together to help you redeem your dream."
"Mortal wisdom." Chu Xuan's gaze shifted slightly at a not-so-large angle.
"However, if the branch lines and points you have on hand cannot be used for the time being. Then I do have a list here... Among the projects I am currently promoting. Some of them are about biochemical nanofiber technology. You can connect yours when the time comes. The nanosuit will be sent together. I should be able to strengthen it to a certain extent... I will give you the list later."
Chu Dingdang did not put the documents on him.
He actually didn't bring this kind of document with him to the meeting of reincarnators!
Jiang Yu kept his head still and looked at Chu Xuan and then at Zheng Zha. He had reason to believe that the 'biochemical nanofiber project' that Chu Xuan was talking about... probably didn't appear in his schedule until a few seconds ago, and went directly to his priority to-do list.
He felt that his guess was true, but unfortunately there was no evidence.
But even if there is evidence... he will probably pretend there is no evidence.
"Yeah." Jiang Yu nodded. "Then Chu Xuan's strengthening is like this... Mou Gang, what about you?"
"I plan to buy some Cybertronian expansion enhancements. This will probably improve my shape after transformation." Mou Gang said with a smile: "At the same time... I also plan to buy the 'Steel Armor Technique' in Cybertronian combat skills. '. In this way, the offensive and defensive capabilities will also be improved."
Steel Armor, a type of Cybertronian martial art. It is said to be a tactic that simultaneously improves mental skills and fighting skills, but Jiang Yu doesn't know much about this field.
But he understood, and he knew that Mou Gang was very satisfied with the current team positioning. And we are taking the initiative to improve our professionalism in corresponding fields.
Then...that's good.
Jiang Yu's gaze shifted. Li Shuaixi shook his head and didn't say much - the direction of his strengthening probably wouldn't be decided in a short time. At least it would have to wait until Chu Xuan's 'recently advancing project' achieved results before it would be his turn to be strengthened.
So……
"I don't have any favorite enhancements at the moment." Zhao Yingkong crossed his arms when Jiang Yu looked over. She didn't seem to be very used to the current 'unfettered' posture. She stared at the big ball of light in the sky and frowned slightly. "It always feels like...it doesn't suit me very well. Can you recommend some enhancements? I may need some reference."
When she said this, her eyes were pointed at Jiang Yu. This may be because Jiang Yu discovered that she is good at nail clippers.
And Jiang Yu didn't think too much.
"How about this." Jiang Yu pulled out the Shining Enhancement from the original world line on the spot. This can provide a speed boost. And has psychic resistance. Zhao Yingkong in the original world line also created a vacuum wave slash based on the Shining bloodline in the later stage. The effect... can at least kill the Nazgul.
But Zhao Yingkong just raised his eyebrows——
"Hmm... it does suit my enhancement. However, this is a gradient enhancement starting from D level... doesn't it mean that it would be more appropriate to exchange it directly for a higher level?"
Ah...there's still this thing?
——Sorry, I forgot too...
Jiang Yu was panicking in her heart. His expression remained unchanged.
"This is mainly because Zhao Yingkong has not strengthened you before. Getting it right in one step... may be a bit difficult."
"I am confident." Zhao Yingkong looked at him seriously and said, "I have unlocked and mastered the first level of gene lock. The second level should not be far away from me. Moreover, I have a very rich battle experience. experience, I will be responsible for my choices.”
"……good."
Jiang Yu lowered her eyes. Soon, he found another entry that seemed okay.
"Death of destiny...how about this? A pan-fantasy, the redeemer will receive a significant increase in attribute values. And can hold the black and red glow that brings death of destiny. It is very effective for both souls and entities. For undead creatures, it has the ability to kill The special attack effect of cutting off his immortality. You need to pay for an A-level side plot and 10,000 reward points..."
Jiang Yucai finished reading the introduction.
My heart skipped a beat.
--etc! This thing is not from the Elden Ring, which was released in 2022... This thing shouldn't be available in 2008!
The words have been spoken.
Zhao Yingkong's will was connected with the main god, and he quickly found the corresponding entry through directional search. And her frowning brows also quietly relaxed after observing the effect.
"This... um, very good." She looked satisfied, with a little doubt. "...Why haven't I seen it before?"
The doubt lasted only a moment.
And soon, the strengthened light beam fell. And Jiang Yu quietly exhaled a small breath from the bottom of her heart.
Next, Zero Point also completed the corresponding strengthening.
So……
"Okay. The topics of strengthening are almost done. Now, it's time to discuss returning to the Legend of Gods and Ghosts."
——Wait a minute, what did Zero Point just strengthen?
