Chapter 76: Fire...Blade Beast Meat
The second day after the fortress attack and defense.
at dusk;
Expansion Area C of Fortress No. 76 in the Middle Ancient Basin.
Lingtong's temporary supply station once again heard the rhythmic sound of hammering.
The hard-working Taoist Master Wang ended this wave of practice, and his cultivation took a firm step towards the intermediate level of the God Gathering Realm.
At this stage, he has no shortage of crystal cores. In the future, he only needs to continue to improve his spiritual consciousness, condense his soul, and temper his Tao body. In less than half a month, he will reach the intermediate level of the God Gathering Realm!
Under the current conditions, the best way to temper the Tao body is naturally...
Blacksmithing.
Two large furnaces, each as tall as a person, were roaring with fire. A thick anvil and a sledgehammer made with high-precision machine tools were forging a sword embryo.
Wang Jixuan was exploring ways to mass-produce the magic-breaking dagger, and by the way, he gave Lingtong a weapon for self-defense.
After this battle, Wang Daochang had a direct understanding of the strength of the blade beast's shell, an intuitive understanding of human firepower, and a general understanding of the weaknesses of both.
Moreover, Wang Jixuan became more and more confident in his combat power after entering the Golden Core Realm.
'I don't know if that young man was encouraged by Pindao. It was indeed the feeling Pindao got from this heavy life, that's right...'
‘It’s cool to have crystal nuclei! ’
‘No crystal core, unhappy. ’
‘You can always become an immortal if you don’t die, living is the foundation of everything! ’
Daochang Wang stopped beating, wiped the hot sweat from his forehead with his arm, lifted the sword embryo in front of him with spiritual energy, and sent it to a bucket of cold brew.
Along with the sizzling sound, white mist rose instantly in the workroom.
Wang Jixuan exhaled a breath of turbid air, put the sword embryo aside and looked at it carefully, still shaking his head with some dissatisfaction.
‘The quality is still not good enough, so we need to continue to refine and inject spirit. ’
‘This is a gift given to Lingtong by Pindao, and it is also a thing used to protect Pindao in disguise. It must be polished well. ’
'By the way, I can also implicitly show the devil commander that Pindao has greater value, lest he cannot withstand the pressure of the Thirteenth Institute. ’
An announcement sounded in the workshop:
"Battle Ji returns to the cabin."
Wang Jixuan turned around and saw the soldiers on the four newly added sentries outside the door saluting at the same time.
Lingtong quickly walked into the outer door. He didn't have time to put on short sleeves and only a pair of gray cropped pants. With quick hands and eyes... he raised the hammer to block his chest muscles.
Lingtong lowered her head and entered. Her originally bad mood suddenly cleared up.
"How's it going?" Wang Jixuan asked.
"Come in and chat, I'm hungry."
A small projection screen popped up on Lingtong's robotic arm, and he turned on the supply station's protective shield and security sound insulation device.
Wang Jixuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that the things she is dealing with are not going well.
…
It really didn't go well.
Qin Qin explained a lot of things, including how to operate the nutrition warehouse, amplifiers, etc., and also admitted that she had asked Meng Caiyuan to broadcast the signal twice, but nothing else was found.
The Psychic City has issued a notice that Uncle Feng, a Class B psyker, and his four younger brothers have officially entered the Psychic Home. A team of specialists is coming from the Psychic City.
Fortunately, the laboratory of the Psychic House in Fortress No. 76 has been evacuated by the military, and Qin Qin has been escorted to the frontline headquarters.
The young man named Meng Caiyuan was temporarily transferred to the medical center on the seventh floor of the fortress. The military has not yet decided whether to detain him.
The situation outside the fortress is not optimistic either.
Those bladed beasts have been moving underground, and now they have retreated to the center of the Sari Desert, which is about two hundred kilometers away;
The intensity of the war on the periphery of the battle line has dropped, but more bladed beasts are coming towards the Medieval Basin, and the outer edges have already appeared There were traces of three king-level blade beasts.
The war has a tendency to escalate further.
The theater command center is evaluating whether to take the initiative to eliminate this bladed beast.
Wang Jixuan asked: "Can't we just attack them with nuclear bombs?"
Sister Wan explained gently: "Why do you think they have been hiding underground and marching? They are avoiding the nuclear bombing of the Battle Fortress... The blade beasts will open underground passages in advance, and then they will march on a large scale."
Sister Wan brought the freshly heated food.
Lingtong was obviously happier, lowering his head and taking small bites.
Uncle Tai and Wan Xiaoqi were arranging their equipment in the corner, preparing for the next battle.
Wang Daozhang muttered: "How do I feel that these blade beasts are underground not just to avoid nuclear bomb attacks..."
"That boy didn't lie," Lingtong was busy eating, not forgetting to give Wang Jixuan a thumbs up.
Wang Daochang raised his eyebrows: "Then I understand. I will help him out later."
"Are you going to kill him?"
"No, his ability is rare. I want to save him."
Wang Jixuan suppressed a word that reached his lips.
He actually thought about using the Soul Capture Talisman to give this boy a new body, but whether the soul and body could adapt was a problem. Where could he find a fresh, harmless body?
Kill someone for this?
That is not what a decent monk would do.
"Sorry," Lingtong swallowed the meat porridge and looked up at Wang Jixuan, "I didn't know you had any experience of being abducted."
"Huh?" Wang Jixuan looked at Lingtong.
Lingtong whispered: "We woke up the boy. He was in pain, but he briefly talked about the soul conversation he had with you. Only I, Zheng Shiduo, and Minister Zhou Meiying were present at the time. There is no need to worry about leaking the secret."
"This kid really can't hide things."
Wang Jixuan wondered: "Then what are you saying sorry to me for?"
"I always thought you were a born optimist."
Lingtong looked at the food on the plate:
"If you have something on your mind, you can communicate with me more in my free time... This is the psychological care that I, as a commander, should have for the logistics team."
Wang Jixuan:......
How could the Taoist priest be a little touched?
He remembered something, turned around and ran to the corner, pulled out a green blade beast thigh cut into pieces from the refrigeration box, turned around and ran to the outer workshop.
Sister Wan asked blankly: "What did Xiao Wang do with a piece of blade beast meat?"
"Um?"
Although Lingtong was puzzled, he was somewhat used to it.
"Sister Wan, don't worry about him, his nickname shouldn't be Black Storm, but...incredible.
"Don't worry, there's no way he could roast the bladed beast meat and eat it."
Sister Wan breathed a sigh of relief: "Maybe it's what is needed to forge the demon-breaking dagger..."
Dang, Dang, Dang!
There was the sound of chopping frozen meat outside. Wan Xiaoqi stopped what he was doing and ran over curiously to watch the excitement.
Soon Wan Xiaoqi screamed: "You can't bake it like this! It will explode!"
Lingtong dropped his chopsticks and jumped over.
As soon as she arrived here, she saw a magical scene:
Wang Jixuan wore thick gloves and took a homemade iron stick to string up pieces of green meat the size of longan and placed it slowly beside the furnace. Turn.
The pieces of meat made a sizzling sound.
There was a curl of white smoke coming out of it. Wang Jixuan blew in, and the white smoke got back into the pieces of meat.
The workshop was filled with a strong aroma of meat. In front of them, Wang Jixuan was relatively restrained. He did not use his spiritual consciousness or spiritual energy to control things. He stretched out his arms to get some seasonings prepared in advance and sprinkled them on the meat skewers one after another.
The aroma of meat suddenly added a hint of vegetation.
Wan Xiaoqi swallowed.
Lingtong frowned and tilted his head.
After a few minutes, those pieces of green meat were gradually covered with a layer of burnt color. Wang Jixuan pinched off a piece and threw it into his mouth. After chewing it twice, wisps of pure spiritual energy merged into his body.
Wang Jixuan made a calculation in his mind.
It looks like an ordinary barbecue, but it actually uses Qi to adjust the spiritual power inside, purifying the extremely weak residual soul resentment in the blade beast's meat.
This will consume your own mana.
But now, if he eats up all the grilled meat, he will not only replenish the mana he spent, but also get a good 'return'.
If you spend time roasting blade beast meat, all in all, the efficiency can be increased by 50% compared to practicing meditation without crystal core release, which is very cost-effective.
It's just not easy to digest.
Taoist Wang sighed in admiration.
"good."
Then, Wang Jixuan turned to look at the stunned people over there, and approached them holding the meat skewers.
Uncle Tai's family was so frightened that they quickly backed away.
Lingtong took the initiative to move forward and looked at the meat skewers curiously. She lifted a strand of playful hair beside her ear, lowered her head and leaned towards it. She subconsciously closed her eyes and opened her small mouth with a little water.
Wang Jixuan, who had already picked off a piece of meat, was a little embarrassed, then he flicked it with his fingers and put it into Lingtong's mouth with a clever move.
Lingtong took two bites and opened his eyes to look at Wang Jixuan, with cross stars twinkling in the corners of his eyes.
"tasty!"
"Nourishment, the important thing is nourishment! Don't try it yourself, it will be very dangerous."
Wang Jixuan smiled and said: "This kind of food is very helpful to strengthen your body and relieve depression in your brain. Eat it."
"Hold it for me, I'm still a little... not used to this kind of food."
"Okay," Wang Jixuan greeted, "come here, I'll get you a plate..."
The two of them walked to the table as if there was no one around.
Sister Wan glanced at Uncle Tai, swallowed at the same time, and slapped Wan Xiaoqi on the head, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Dad! Mom! Why are you hitting me!"
"Does it hurt?"
"It hurts!"
"It's not a dream," Uncle Tai raised his hand to his forehead, "Teacher Wang is so amazing. How did he do this? In the past many years, any attempt to cook bladed beast meat would slightly explode and release toxic substances. During the experiment, Animals that eat raw blade meat are going crazy.”
Miss Wan muttered in a low voice: "Compared with this, shouldn't he have just pinched and fed Lingtong to eat? He actually bounced it over... Really, how can it be unreasonable!"
Wan Xiaoqi made a face and ran over to taste the meat of the blade beast.
Uncle Tai pondered for a few times: "Honey, tell me, I am going to take the senior nutritionist certificate exam. Can I read the three works of the paper "Concerning the Eating Methods of Bladed Beast Meat"?"
Sister Wan:......
At the dinner table, Taoist Wang, who didn't care at all about the small matter of roasting blade beast meat, was already discussing the next action with Lingtong.
"Is it enough? If it's not enough, I'll grill two more skewers."
"That's enough. I've had part of my stomach removed. I can't eat too much. I'll eat it next time. I'm going to investigate the whereabouts of the Blade Beast later, hunt for Blade Beast meat, and get some crystal nuclei for you."
"Enough about the barbecue... By the way, are there any more insulting gestures?"
"Middle finger?"
"It doesn't feel insulting enough."
"The thumb and index finger will be touching, with a gap of three millimeters, and the other three fingers will be together."
"Eh? What does this mean?" Wang Jixuan looked innocent.
Lingtong:......
Keep your head down and cook.
…
Two hours later.
The quadcopter parked in the military camp on the surface of the fortress had not yet had time to shut down.
Uncle Feng and his four men, plus more than twenty psykers who had been brought back, followed an old man and walked quickly to the elevator in front.
The soldiers of the Defense Force looked at the old man - the Commissioner of the Psychic City - with some hostility.
This old man was very thin, as if a layer of skin was wrapped around his skeleton, and there were several age spots on the back of his hands.
Although the old man's psychic fluctuations were only slightly higher than Uncle Feng's, his status in the psychic city was far from being comparable to Uncle Feng's.
The three psychics he brought this time were all capable men with evil spirits and cold eyes.
"Commissioner Wei," Uncle Feng said with a smile, "The signal for Meng Caiyuan's nutrition warehouse is on the seventh floor of this fortress."
"Go straight over and knock them out immediately if they encounter any obstruction. Anyone who attacks us will be killed without mercy."
The old man said calmly: "I don't care what you did before.
"Take this moment as the starting point for us to restore our influence in the D5 theater. If anyone loses the link in the future, they should go to the Judgment Department themselves."
A group of psychics remained silent.
The elevator quickly descended, carrying the old man to the sixth floor of the fortress, and then transferred to the central elevator on the seventh floor. The group of psychics soon arrived at the central hospital on the seventh floor of the fortress.
Uncle Feng was walking at the front, just about to show off his powerful oppression of ordinary people as a B-level psyker.
Members of the security team at the front saluted at the same time and shouted in unison:
"Welcome Commissioner Wei Linzheng of the Psychic City!"
Uncle Feng was slightly stunned.
No, they didn’t have this attitude before! Each one of them is more arrogant than the other!
The old man smiled, nodded gently to the members of the security team, and led them into the central hospital.
Several members of the security team saluted, turned away, and started running faster after taking a few steps.
Meng Caiyuan's nutrition warehouse was placed in the corner of a ward, and was quickly found and surrounded by psychics.
Wei Lin was pushing away the crowd, covering his nose with a white handkerchief, looking at the figure covered by a thick quilt in the nutrition warehouse.
Uncle Feng opened the nutrition bin himself. A psychic pulled the quilt off, and a spring doll popped out from under it.
"Where's Meng Caiyuan!"
Uncle Feng stared and shouted:
"Wouldn't he die soon after leaving the nutrition warehouse? Look for him immediately! Look for all the places with medical points!"
Wei Linzheng didn't pay much attention to this.
The old man stared at the white paper attached to the spring doll's head. On the white paper, a little man wearing a black helmet was drawn... This little man was lifelike, with his middle finger raised on both hands and swaying with the spring.
"Ha, childish."
at the same time.
In Lingtong's supply station.
Wang Jixuan put his sword finger against the young man's forehead and gently moved it outward. Balls of black air flew out from his fingertips and merged into the prepared blade beast frozen meat next to him.
