Chapter 696 Zhou Xu who couldn’t sleep
“Don’t burn these two corpses yet. Find a place to keep them. I will call someone to confirm their identities later.”
Out To be cautious, Zhou Xu asked Hilke to preserve the body.
It is winter now, the temperature is very cold, and the corpse is not easy to rot, so it will not be a big problem to preserve it for a period of time.
After leaving the cave, Zhou Xu ordered people to prepare a new room for him to rest.
In this room over here, the bed was also broken up, and there was a murder scene underneath. Although Zhou Xu wasn't afraid, he didn't have the bad taste to insist on sleeping here.
There are still many rooms in the city lord's palace. After this trip, it is almost midnight.
Logically speaking, Zhou Xu should be extremely sleepy by now.
However, at this time, Zhou Xu was lying on the bed in the new room, tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep.
It wasn’t because I was so scared that I couldn’t sleep after seeing two corpses, but because I was excited!
[Damn, this wave is really a bumper harvest! 】
Just thinking about it, he almost laughed out loud in bed.
At this moment, his reason is reminding himself that it is best to go to bed now, as there are still many things for him to be busy with tomorrow.
But the excitement in my heart cannot be suppressed at all.
【Damn, I can’t sleep! No more sleep! Get up and study...】
After thinking about this, Zhou Xu wrapped himself in a thick quilt and sat up from the bed with a 'hehe' smile.
Mantras such as 'Inspire' and 'Lightning Attack' in the middle of the night must not be tested, but this does not prevent him from taking stock of his gains in this wave, and then Let’s sort out and study the new combinations that can be made.
In this wave, in addition to those single mantra characters, 'Inspire morale' and 'Lightning' are also new mantras, but he already has the snake oil mantra of 'attack'.
As expected, the newly absorbed 'attack' mantra quickly merged with his original 'attack' mantra, so that the 'attack' mantra itself was strengthened.
【In this way, will the intensity of my "attack"-related mantras become higher in the future? Not to mention anything else, the intensity of 'Lightning Attack' and 'Flying Stone Attack' can definitely be improved! 】
Zhou Xu felt extremely happy when he thought of this.
Based on this alone, he felt like he had made a lot of money.
The benefits of the Tiger Balm Mantra are here. Once this mantra is strengthened, many mantra combinations will also be strengthened.
After adjusting his emotions, Zhou Xu let his consciousness slowly sink in and observed the newly acquired mantra characters in his body.
Some people may think that obtaining so many mantra characters at once and considering various permutations and combinations is a brain-consuming task.
But this is not the case.
As mentioned earlier, there is actually a close relationship between these mantra characters themselves.
Mantra characters with good compatibility will stay together by themselves, while those with bad compatibility will stay far away from each other, as if they have never interacted with each other until death.
After obtaining these mantras, Zhou Xu understood a truth, that is, the melons that are forced are not sweet.
But when it comes to the mantra, not only is the twisted melon not sweet, it can't even quench thirst.
It's like you made up an idiom yourself, and it sounds smooth when you say it. It looks like it at first glance, but if it's not in the idiom dictionary, then it doesn't work as an idiom.
After this period of time, Zhou Xu felt that the mantra combination was roughly the same.
There are specific rules for the combination of mantras. Even if the mantras are forced together, even if they can be read fluently, they will not play a substantial role.
In this way, relying on this experience, Zhou Xu, who had confirmed the close relationship, quickly had a rough idea in his mind. The newly obtained mantra characters do not have a good relationship with each other, but there are also exceptions.
For example, the 'Peeping' mantra that he just obtained is closely related to the 'Secret' mantra that he obtained earlier. If they are put together to fight fiercely, they can form a 'Peeping into the Secret' combination.
【Peep into secrets, spy into secrets, this seems to be possible! 】
With this thought in mind, Zhou Xu gently read out this mantra phrase.
At that moment, he could feel that the invisible power of the mantra had been condensed and formed, but after he uttered the last tone, it suddenly dispersed!
He has been studying the mantra for more than a day or two. He really knows what this situation is like.
Take 'Skeleton Soldier Control' as an example. After pronouncing the three mantra characters of 'Skeleton Soldier', if he stops directly and does not say 'Control', then the above situation will happen.
In other words...
【There is something missing behind this 'peeping into the secret'! 】
Aware of this, Zhou Xu quickly searched for the characters of his mantra.
[There is a certain pattern in the combination of all mantra characters, 'peep into secrets', peep into secrets, but how to pry into secrets? Eye! That’s right! Use your eyes! It should be the ‘Peeping Eye’! 】
With this idea, Zhou Xu immediately tried to combine the mantra characters of "Zhi" and "Eye" in the body with "Peeping Secret" to form a new mantra combination.
Unexpectedly, while he was doing this operation, for some reason, another mantra character was brought over by him.
At the moment when the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets' was about to be formed, the mantra characters actually came to life, and they directly squeezed away the 'eye' character that came close to them and formed it on their own.
Watching this scene, Zhou Xu’s expression was stunned, and the new combination of mantras was completely formed at this moment.
【The pupil of secrets? ! 】
This "pupil" mantra is one of the mantra characters obtained from Yan Sheng before.
In Zhou Xu's opinion, the 'pupil' and 'eye' should have similar effects, but now it seems that the 'pupil of the secret' has a better fit than the 'eye of the secret' high? !
Faced with this situation, Zhou Xu was a little confused, seeing it for the first time.
【Anyway, let’s try it out. 】
With this thought, Zhou Xu quickly activated the mantra.
The newly composed mantra was not unfamiliar in his mouth.
In an instant, Zhou Xu felt that wherever he looked, the whole world became clear.
But after one sweep, he was completely confused.
[As of now, the effect of the 'Peeping Eye' is exactly the same as the 'Eye of Insight', but the consumption of mantra is nearly 30% higher than that of the 'Eye of Insight'! 】
Based on this situation, the ‘Peeping Eye’ will have no value for money in front of the ‘Eye of Insight’.
[No, this is still too arbitrary. 】
【Judging from the meaning of the phrase, this 'Peeping Eye' should be used to see some hidden secrets. If there are no secrets in this room, it will naturally not play any role. 】
Zhou Xu felt that his speculation and analysis was quite reliable, and at the same time, a new idea came to his mind.
Then he fumbled for a while and got the scroll he took out of Yan Sheng's body into his hand.
[How about using the ‘Peeping Eye’ to look at this scroll? 】
If nothing else, there should be an update after 10:30
