Chapter 729 Unexpected Gain
"Hey, do you see anything?"
Standing in front of the edge of the huge passage to the bottom of the living area, Froman looked down. He accidentally kicked the gravel next to him, and the stone rolled down the darkness. After a moment, there was a soft sound.
Although Joanna has good eyesight, she can't see anything clearly in such a place without a light source. Hearing the leader's question, she shook her head.
After killing all the worms that fought back in Area A, Zog was left with less than 50. Froman led them back to the living area, walked along the road and saw insect corpses everywhere. This phenomenon shows that the Andura worm has been killed by zero, which will cause the chain death of the insect population. Froman led Jonah and several strong warriors to come here first. The latter are responsible for collecting the brain crystals of the Andura worm.
The brain crystal of ordinary adults can provide Zog people with the opportunity to gain stronger power, and the brain crystal of Chongwei is even more rare. This role is more powerful than ordinary insects. Their brain crystals are three-edned and red, and the inside is like blood. In fact, it is just a sign of strong energy. However, the Andura worm will oxidize very quickly after death, and proteins and fibers will soon melt into water.
To collect brain crystals, it can only be completed within 5 minutes after their death, so although there are many dead insects, the brain crystals collected by Zog's man is limited. The crystals of ordinary adults, plus the dozen collected before zero, are only more than 20 pieces. As for Chongwei's brain crystal, there are only three pieces. Naturally, these three pieces are not enjoyed by those who have ordinary combat power. Only strong warriors such as Froman and Jona can get the crystals of Chongwei, and only they can use them to get the greatest effect.
It's just a waste to give it to others.
After a while, all the Zog people have gathered on the channel to feed the worms. Froman asked someone to bring a few cold fireworks and threw them down the passage. Before long, they fell to the bottom of the base channel. In the sudden light of the blue fire, the hill-like head behind the Andura worm suddenly appeared, which scared many Zog.
Froman touched his head and shouted, "Quiet. That's just a corpse. Look, you are so timid that you can scare a corpse like this!"
In his mouth, Froman didn't mean much to blame. After all, Andura worms have accumulated power for a long time. Even if it is just a corpse, it is not surprising that it will scare people when they suddenly see it.
"Look over there."
When the firelight was weak step by step, Jonah pointed to the place not far from the body behind the Andura worm, and there lay a white body on the inside, which turned out to be a woman from the outline.
"Woman?" Roman was even more puzzled: "Why do more women come out? Don't you know that that guy is actually a woman?"
Jona gave him a white look. At that time, she was the closest person to zero when she attacked zero. At that time, Ling did not wear a robe and cover his face. The male characteristics on his body, including throat knots, were clear at a glance. How could a woman pretend to be?
"I'll go down and have a look." With that, Jona jumped down the passage. She deftly made uneven landing points on the edge of the building passage, and her figure has disappeared into the darkness.
The people behind Froman said, "Go find some safety ropes and come down by yourself. The emergency passage is still below, and we have to leave there. Jona and I will go down first. Hurry up and follow up!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and jumped into the dark space of the passage. At the bottom of the passage, as soon as Jonah fell to the ground, she heard the sound of breaking the air above and smashed down with her head. A wave of air roared away, making Jona's body sway, but she saw that Roman stand up in circles as if drunk, and shook his head for a long time to finally survive the dizziness of hitting the ground.
"What a messy guy." Joanna said angrily.
Froman made a sign and then laughed, "Jona, you're in a good mood."
"Of course, I can leave this damn place and see what the outside world has become. Why am I in a bad mood?" Jonah asked, and without waiting for Froman to answer, she bypassed the huge body behind the Andura worm and walked towards the woman lying on the ground with her back to them.
"It has been so many years, and maybe our relatives outside have forgotten us. What's more, they can't accept us now. But even so, you have to leave here. The Pope's Hall is finally time to settle everything with you. Fromman clenched his fist and hummed from his nostrils before walking to Jonna's side.
Jona half squatted on the ground, with two fingers pressing on the side of the woman's neck. She shook her head and said, "This man is dead."
Froman looked at this graceful curve and couldn't help whistling, "It's a pity that I haven't seen this kind of thing for many years." With that, he turned the woman's body over. When the blonde hair on the body's face slipped to the ground, Roman shook and said in horror, "What kind of monster is this!"
It turned out that after Ye Lijie's death, the dominant gene of human beings was receding, and the genes of Andura insects began to emerge. Now the face of the worm has become the shape of the worm seen before zero, and even the body begins to change. In short, now Ye Lijie is like a bug man.
Jona couldn't tell what it was, so at this moment, an invisible fluctuation passed by. Jona suddenly collapsed, and her pupils contracted and expanded. For a while, the blood flow in her body accelerated, and Jona subconsciously entered a state of war.
Froman also felt the fluctuation, but his reaction was much calmer than Jona's. But also solemnly look at the source of the fluctuation, where there is a metal wall that has hit something a gap, and there is something emitting a glimmer of light in the wall, and the fluctuation just now is emitted from there. Froman clearly felt that there was a very powerful force in the fluctuation, which was deeply condensed. On the surface, the power level presented by it is not high, but if you feel it carefully, you will find that you can't know the limit of this power at all.
It seems that what they just felt was the surface of the sea, but there was no way to measure how deep the underwater world is.
At this time, another fluctuation passed by.
Jona had relaxed a little. The two looked at each other and walked towards the metal wall together.
As you get closer, you can see that the glowing thing is a scary egg. The top of the egg has cracked, as if something came out of it. This made the two of Froman and Furman couldn't help looking at the insect people in the distance, but now, there is obviously something else in it.
At this moment, one palm suddenly caught the eggshell with a gly pattern.
Jona almost jumped on it, but she let Freeman catch it. Then, a figure turned out of the egg and fell to the ground. The two of them could see clearly that this person was the zero after challenging the Andura worm alone!
Zero is still stained with glowing energy, and he seems to have just woken up from his sleep. When I opened my eyes, my eyes were blank. What can be seen is that the golden color of Zero's right eye is still the same, and there is a bright blue light in his left pupil. This light is deep and vast, and the heart is palpitations. Until a moment, the blue light gradually faded and regained its usual black pupil.
And at this time, Zero is really waking up.
"Here you are." Seeing that the person in front of him was Furman and Jona said, Zero said.
Above the passage in the distance, there are still many Zog people using safety ropes to slide down the bottom. When he saw them, Zero suddenly realized that he did not use low-light vision, but everything at the bottom of the base appeared in his sight. And when his eyes are focused on someone, he will see several pictures of this person at the same time. When these pictures are integrated, a three-dimensional model will naturally appear in Zero's mind.
Zero was a little uncomfortable with this sudden vision. He knew that it was probably related to the energy liquid left in the Dome after absorbing the Andura worm. They seem to have zero more than some post-worm genetic fragments, because the vision just now is very similar to the compound vision of insects. Under this stereo vision, Zero can grasp almost every subtle action of the opponent, and even analyze the opponent's next possible reaction through some subtle movements.
This is a new ability produced by the combination of the stereo vision of the worm and the ability of zero right eye. It is as wonderful as being able to see the future. Of course, the limit that zero can see is the reaction of the opponent in a second or two, but this is already very remarkable. However, Zero is always a human, and his genetic chain is still dominated by human fragments, so he cannot use stereo vision for a long time.
In addition, Zero found that his injuries had healed. Originally, in the feedback from the memory group, the whole repair work will not be completed until at least tomorrow. Now it has been completed a few hours ahead of schedule, which can be said to be the credit of those energy liquids, which have greatly improved Zero's recovery ability.
Zog went down to the bottom one after another. Because they had just experienced a big war, they were both physically and mentally tired. Especially for the leader of Froman, he is under far more pressure than others can imagine. After confirming that the insect died and Ling was safe and sound, Florman fell to sleep. There were many injuries on his body.
Jona and others are closing their eyes and resting while digesting what Ling just said to them. Zero briefly talked about the evolution and ambition after the Andura worm, but it made everyone who listened to it chill. If it hadn't been for the success of intercepting the Andura worm today, if she had left, not only would the human world outside suffer, but also Zog in the base would not have survived.
Thinking that the worm actually planned to blow up the channel and let them be buried with other Andura worms, Jonah and others couldn't help but be lucky. Fortunately, they chose to bet with Zero. Otherwise, if they are safe, the cold death awaits them.
There was a slight bursting sound in her ear, and Jona opened her eyes. With the lights of several emergency lights brought down by Zog, you can see Zero's punching at a very fast speed not far away. Joanna opened her eyes wide and barely caught the faint shadow of Zero's fist. Zero kept moving while punching. His movement was very subtle, but the speed was extremely fast, and he basically did not stay in the same place for more than 1 second.
And Jona doesn't know how he accomplished some movements, because these movements have exceeded the limit of human function. Jona couldn't help but imagine that if she was in front of zero, she was already sweating profusely for a moment. There was a storm in her heart, because she found that if she became a zero opponent, she could not capture his movements.
In such an environment, Jona will only fight without backhand.
She shook her head with a wry smile, and Zero seemed to be much stronger. Suddenly, Jonah thought of another thing. Zero's punch speed had obviously exceeded the speed of sound, so it was difficult to catch. But in the supersonic state, there is no reason to punch like this. This can only be done by binding all the strength to the front and weakening the friction with the air to a minimum.
In such a state, Zero seems to be an ordinary punch, but it is already too strong to imagine.
But Jona doesn't know that Zero hasn't even used the attack superposition effect of spiral puncture or burst barrage.
Now, Zero is just adapting to the body after absorbing energy liquid and the newly formed ability as soon as possible. After absorbing the energy liquid, there are zero basic abilities. Strength, defense, speed, response, flexibility, etc. have been significantly improved. Under the distribution of the main brain, the energy liquid is not all distributed to the speed like Ye Lijie. The main brain always believes that comprehensive development is more suitable for the needs of zero. Just because of the habit of zero, the main brain invests more resources in speed within the scope that can be allocated.
Therefore, when I woke up, although the speed of zero was not enough to support multiple phantom attacks like Ye Lijie, it also increased two to three times than usual. More importantly, he has developed a new ability to be tough. Tenacity is not directly applied to combat. It is similar to steel skin and is an auxiliary ability. When using it, the flexibility of the zero body has been greatly improved, enabling him to break through the upper limit of human function and achieve those incredible movements in Jona's eyes.
At first glance, toughness does not directly improve zero combat effectiveness. But the effect it brings is more terrible than directly raising zero energy. With this ability of tenacity, Zero jumped to become the most terrible fighting master. If the opponent weighs his movements as a human, the lesson will be unforgettable for life.
However, there are advantages and disadvantages. Toughness will soften the muscles of Zero's whole body to the greatest extent and even change the structure of a certain part of the muscles, so that Zero can make inhuman movements. But at the same time, when using this ability, steel skin cannot be used. There is a conflict between the two abilities in essence, so it is difficult to coexist.
But now, even if you don't use steel skin, under the transformation of memory groups and energy liquids, zero basic defense has almost caught up with Franklin's defense expertise. In this way, the value of toughness is far above the steel skin.
In addition to the long-term improvement of body and strength, zero gains are more than that. Ye Lijie has contributed nearly 100 evolution points to zero. It seems that her potential has not been fully realized, otherwise there will not be so many evolution points. And a crystal behind the worm was also found on Ye Lijie's body. This crystal is a perfect hexahedron, which looks like a diamond at first glance.
It's just that this diamond is golden yellow, and the energy flowing inside is so strong that even ordinary people can feel its extraordinary. After this insect, the crystal naturally fell into the zero sac, and as for the original dozen ordinary brain crystals, it was given to Zog.
Of course, Froman and others have no problem with this. In the era when the strong are respected, it is natural for Ye Lijie to get a big head after killing insects alone. And this crystal alone is worth more than the sum of all brain crystals. If it is sold into gold coins, the zero estimate is worth at least four or five million. This is a huge wealth, but the value of the worm crystallization cannot be measured by money. For the zero-level strong, it is far more effective than money.
After familiarizing himself with his body, Zero threw the worm crystal into his mouth and swallowed it directly. As soon as it enters Zero's body, the surface of the worm's crystallization is immediately covered with fine cracks, and then bursts apart. The golden energy flame inside overflowed, making Zero's whole body emit a faint golden light.
Zero can feel that most of the energy emitted by the crystal is directly transformed into evolutionary points in some mysterious way. At the beginning, nearly 100 evolution points emerged directly, which is equivalent to killing Ye Lijie. The emergence of evolutionary points has not stopped. They are rolling more and more like snowballs, and they are deeply shocked. Evolution points are the numbers that can directly present the value of crystallization. The more evolution points, the greater the value of crystallization.
These evolution points surged to 237 before they stopped. In addition, with the original possession of zero, he has now accumulated 345 evolution points, which is only about 100 meters away from advancing to the tenth level. Now, Zero has stood at the peak of the ninth level. It can be said that it is invincible under the tenth level. Even an ordinary tenth-order strongman is estimated to be able to fight a fight.
Most of the crystalline energy is transformed into evolutionary points, while a small part is combined with the energy of zero itself, and the rest is distributed to his whole body bones and begins some kind of transformation. A large amount of data poured into Zero's mind, letting Zero know that when the transformation is completed, his bones will add some metal elements to make the bones stronger. The bones will appear hollow, making the bones light. But at the same time, there will be a hexagonal gap on the surface of the bone, which will be filled with some bone glue-like material, which greatly improves the impact resistance, and when needed, the bone structure can be tightly bitten by closing the gap, so as to burst into stronger power!
This process takes 12 to 20 hours, and it takes a day to stabilize this lightweight bone and adapt to it. After completing this evolution of the body, zero will lose about one-fifth of its weight. He will become lighter and faster at the same time!
Zero is very satisfied with such a change. Ye Lijie's contribution to many evolutionary points was originally an accident, and now the post-worm crystallization is an unexpected harvest. The surging energy in her body constantly proves to Zero that she has taken a big step forward. Zero is now full of confidence, and he can't wait to find someone to practice immediately to feel how much stronger he has become.
