Chapter 221 Choice

The shouts of his subordinates made Zhou Xu, who was struggling with who to focus resources on training, suddenly come back to his senses and subconsciously looked at the body of the saber-toothed tiger.

At this moment, the sun was shining down, making people wonder if it was the reaction caused by the sunlight shining on the saber-toothed tiger.

This was also the main reason why the subordinates raised their heads and lowered their heads for a while, checking back and forth several times.

【Eye of Insight! 】

In order to be completely sure, Zhou Xu directly activated the 'Eye of Insight'.

At first glance, I saw that the saber-toothed tiger was indeed emitting a faint layer of fluorescence, and the shimmer was still warm yellow, almost blending with the winter sunshine. If you look carefully, you can't tell the difference at all.

Catching this glimmer of light, Zhou Xu’s heartbeat couldn’t help but accelerate.

"Good guy, is this..."

While muttering to himself, Zhou Xu quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand towards the glowing corpse.

The next second, the glimmer of light seemed to be pulled by some invisible force, turning into a stream of energy and directly penetrated into Zhou Xu's body.

[System reminder: Congratulations to 'Zhou Xu' for obtaining the mantra 'Beast']

Zhou Xu never expected that the body of this saber-toothed tiger actually contained a mantra character.

Compared to this, he was not surprised at all that he did not notice the existence of this mantra last night.

As an important force lurking in this world, Zhou Xu has undoubtedly done enough research on the 'Truth'. While collecting information from his subordinates, he also combined the information himself and made many Reasonable speculative analysis.

At present, he already has a certain degree of understanding of the 'Truth'.

Whether this light, which symbolizes the power of the mantra, will appear depends on two aspects.

One is the intensity of this ‘mantra’.

Simply speaking, the higher the intensity, the brighter the light.

To give a simple example, when the 'Eye of Insight' was attached to the skull's eye socket, it was just two swaying flames that anyone could clearly see.

On the other hand, some of the mantra characters he encountered later had a weak light, some so weak that he might not have noticed them if he hadn't opened the 'Eye of Insight' to improve his ability to see.

The other aspect is time!

This refers specifically to creatures that have absorbed the power of the mantra.

Once the power of the mantra is absorbed, it will become one with the host. The higher the degree of compatibility, the more complete the integration will be.

Under this premise, if the host dies, the completely fused mantra will not break away immediately, but will slowly gather over time and then break away.

As long as it lasts long enough, even a faint mantra character can form a light group that anyone can see.

The mantra on the saber-toothed tiger clearly has a high degree of compatibility, but it has not lasted long enough. It is basically still integrated into the body of the saber-toothed tiger. At this time, it has not yet been able to gather into a group of light and then break away. Come out to the point.

However, the power of the mantra itself attracts each other. When the original host is dead, Zhou Xu, who has stronger mantra power, is like a huge magnet. As long as he gets close, the mantra in the saber-toothed tiger's body will be attracted. The power will be absorbed by him.

Of course, what happened this time was a bit unexpected for Zhou Xu.

He did not expect that extraordinary creatures could also carry mantras.

In any case, Zhou Xu already had some thoughts about the newly acquired mantra.

But at this moment, his main attention was still focused on the blood essence of the saber-toothed tiger.

“Continue.”

After absorbing the power of the mantra, Zhou Xu raised his hand and motioned for his subordinates to continue working.

With the previous experience, the person in charge of the dissection was also very agile. He directly opened the belly of the saber-toothed tiger, took out all the internal organs, and then took out the one that was still a bit fresh. Living heart!

This heart looked unusual, which made Zhou Xu even more convinced that there was something in it!

While this idea flashed through his mind, he quickly glanced at Chitose next to him. Sure enough, at this moment, Chitose no longer licked his paws, and his eyes were fixed. Staring at the heart being held out. "Chitose?"

Zhou Xu tried calling its name.

Chitose is very smart and can understand his own name. He saw his ears twitching, and then he opened a pair of eyes like copper bells and tilted his head to look at Zhou Xu, as if asking, "Tell me to do it" What? ’

Zhou Xu didn't speak, just reached out and touched its head.

In response, Chitose nuzzled him habitually, and then quickly shifted her attention to the saber-toothed tiger's heart again.

During the period, the autopsy staff cast a questioning look at Zhou Xu.

After all, they also know that the drop of blood essence was eaten by Chitose before. Now that Chitose is sitting next to him with such eager eyes, they can't decide whether to take action.

Seeing the thoughts of the diggers, Zhou Xu nodded and motioned for them to take action.

The authorized anatomy officer no longer hesitated. After asking a man to prepare with a pottery bowl, he cut open the heart of the saber-toothed tiger with a neat movement.

At that moment, along with the overflowing blood, Zhou Xu clearly saw a drop of blood like a ruby ​​slowly sliding down.

At the same time, he also clearly felt that Chitose's body tightened rapidly, as if he was about to rush out at any time.

"Chitose?"

Zhou Xu called it again, interrupting Chitose's movements. Chitose turned her head again and focused on him.

During this process, the drop of essence and blood has been firmly received into the pottery bowl.

Qiantose turned around and looked at the blood essence that had fallen into the pottery bowl, and then looked at Zhou Xu who was standing next to him.

I don’t know if this clever little ghost realized that the key was Zhou Xu, so it simply rubbed against Zhou Xu and acted coquettishly.

This situation made Zhou Xu dumbfounded.

He had thought about Chitose suddenly rushing out and swallowing the drop of blood, but he did not expect that things would turn out like this.

This little guy really doesn't care about martial ethics.

Taking over the pottery bowl containing the blood essence from the hands of the dissection staff, the saber-toothed tiger's blood essence was like a liquid ruby ​​the size of a soybean. With the shaking of the pottery bowl, it slowly swelled at the bottom of the bowl. flowing.

Looking at this drop of essence and blood, and then looking down at the coquettish Chitose, Zhou Xu sighed.

“Forget it, I’ll give it to you.”

While speaking, Zhou Xu knelt down and placed the bowl in front of Chitose.

At that moment, Chitose's state could be described as her eyes shining, and she couldn't wait to lick the drop of blood into her mouth.

Zhou Xu actually thought about it a lot before making this decision.

Under the circumstances at that time, if Chitose went to grab it regardless of his wishes, he would definitely not give it to him.

But the fact is that under the circumstances at that time, as soon as he called it, Chitose would still turn around to confirm his situation. This shows that his status in Chitose's heart is higher than that drop of blood. .

This is the most core reason.

As for other additional reasons, of course there are.

For example, Chitose has already swallowed a drop of blood essence. Instead of spreading resources, it is better to focus on cultivating Chitose first.

For another example, compared to Zhou Chongshan as a human, Chitose should have a higher compatibility with this drop of essence and blood, and the effect may be better...
