Wang Zheng stared into deep thought as he looked at the exceptionally precious spiritual crystal before him.
What is this? Is it the inner core of a demon beast from a novel or comic book from my past life?
He then asked, "What is the use of this spiritual energy crystal?"
Li Liang began to explain.
"Spiritual energy crystals are the essence of a mythical beast's entire body."
When a mythical beast evolves to a certain level, its spiritual energy becomes so abundant that it forms spiritual energy crystals. Different mythical beasts will form different crystals, but they are all basically crystalline, and the darker the color, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy.
The application of spiritual energy crystals is still under research.
However, carrying one can enhance the body's absorption of spiritual energy. Moreover, spiritual energy itself has no attributes, and the spiritual energy of mythical beasts is no different from that of humans, so it can also be absorbed from the crystal.
Moreover, as time goes by, the spiritual energy within the spiritual crystal will gradually dissipate.
Therefore, although there is a considerable amount of spiritual energy crystals currently in stock, it is still a consumable resource and is quite precious.
"Let me tell you, I used all my previous contribution points to exchange for this spirit crystal. I hope you can make good use of it and not waste your talent."
Wang Zheng was somewhat moved, not expecting this spiritual crystal to be so precious. He then asked, "What are contribution points?"
"For researchers like us who are stationed in the rear for a long time, apart from meeting the most basic material needs, most of our remaining benefits are converted into national contribution points."
For example, this new type of counter-damage capability that you reported this time made up for the deficiencies in the national database, and you received a reward of contribution points.
Contribution points can be exchanged for rare resources not available on the market. These include different types of exotic beast meat, weapons and armor made from exotic beast materials, and spiritual energy crystals.
"Can materials from alien beasts be used to make weapons?" Wang Zheng asked.
"Of course you can. As you know, there hasn't been much progress in the research of spiritual energy fire weapons yet, because spiritual energy dissipates easily once it leaves the body, making it impossible to cause damage."
Moreover, not all awakened beings can fight alien beasts with their bare hands. Many alien beasts have amazing defensive capabilities. For example, this earth pig not only has tough fur, but can also use spiritual energy to coat its body with earth armor. Without weapons, it is difficult to cause damage.
To penetrate the defenses of a strange beast, one must attach spiritual energy.
Under such circumstances, weapons crafted by fusing materials from exotic beasts with some metals can greatly enhance the adhesion of spiritual energy, making exotic beast materials a precious resource.
The mother and son were talking in the living room when the aroma from the kitchen wafted out. Soon, Wang Shengrong had prepared the first serving of exotic beast meat and brought it up.
"This is a domesticated bell-shaped rabbit. Let's try this one first."
Li Liang stopped talking and gestured for Wang Zheng to eat the meat first. Wang Zheng naturally did not refuse and finished the plate of meat in a few minutes.
After eating, Wang Zheng felt a warm feeling in his stomach. Soon, the number on his watch changed to 105. Wang Zheng looked at his data panel, and the spiritual energy value column also showed 105.
That works!
Although Wang Zheng was very excited, he didn't shout or make a fuss, but secretly glanced at Li Liang.
Li Liang now truly believes it, after all, the increase in spiritual energy in such a short period of time seems to be beyond explanation as a coincidence.
Wang Zheng then finished the second serving of wild bell rabbit meat, and his total spiritual energy increased to 106.
It seems there is no difference between wild and farmed animals.
After finishing the third serving of wolf meat, my spiritual energy level dropped to 108. After the fourth serving of local pork, it dropped to 110.
Wang Zheng guessed that this was probably because the different levels of the beasts resulted in different proportions of spiritual energy in their meat.
Wang Shengrong was even more excited than Wang Zheng, shouting, "I knew this kid was a genius!"
Then he asked, "Xiao Zheng, how are you? Can you still eat? If you can, Dad will make you some more."
Wang Zheng was so full he couldn't speak, feeling like the meat he'd eaten was stuck in his throat, and he quickly shook his head.
A normal person would be unable to finish two servings, but he ate four, which was already his limit. Wang Zheng secretly regretted it, thinking that if he were a big eater, his strength might improve even faster.
Li Liang and Wang Shengrong exchanged a smile, thinking to themselves that their future salaries and contributions would probably be turned into meat and eaten by Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng reached for the water glass, took a big gulp, and let out a long burp as he drank it down his chest.
"Mom, what about those spiritual crystals? Let me see them."
Li Liang handed over the box containing the spiritual energy crystals, and was about to remind Wang Zheng to keep it safe and not to expose it to the outside world carelessly.
As soon as Wang Zheng's hand touched the spiritual crystal, the deep blue color of the crystal slowly faded, like paint fading.
Meanwhile, the testing device on Wang Zheng's wrist showed that his spiritual energy value was also constantly increasing.
111, 113, 117, 120, 125, 130... It kept increasing until it reached 233 before stopping.
Li Liang and Wang Shengrong, who were standing nearby, were stunned. Wang Shengrong asked with concern, "Xiao Zheng, are you alright? Is anything bothering you?"
Li Liang understood the danger of the situation better than ordinary people, and immediately used her mental power to immobilize Wang Zheng's body.
"Xiao Zheng, don't concentrate, relax your body, don't think about resisting. You may feel pain in your body later, and Mom will hypnotize you to try to reduce your pain!"
Because a normal person could increase their spiritual energy limit by more than 100 in such a short period of time, even from F level to E level.
