When the afterglow of the next day spread across the earth, Xia Mu and others had already entered the real heart of the southwest region.
There are only a few hundred kilometers left to the assembly point agreed upon by the major military regions.
Fortunately, they did not encounter any particular resistance as they passed through the cities.
The armored vehicle's camouflage helped them avoid numerous attacks from dark creatures. Once, they even quietly stopped beside a mutant deer without being noticed.
Greatly shortened the travel time.
In the past few days, after absorbing the source bacteria every day, everyone would quietly contemplate their own abilities and consume all the energy left in their bodies after the source bacteria washed them away.
Xia Mu's strength has improved again, and his combat power has reached 105 points, successfully breaking the 100 mark.
Just as he imagined, when his combat power exceeded 100, the Nine-Dimensional System also gave him a new gift package.
"System, please tell me first, what level of equipment is most likely to be found in this gift pack? I'll have a rough idea."
"Host, the gift pack you receive after your combat power exceeds 100 is the same as the novice gift pack. The items inside are extremely rare."
Hearing this, he suddenly became energetic.
The three things he received in the newbie gift package were more difficult to solve than the last.
If we follow this logic, then wouldn't the gift pack with a combat power of over 100 also contain powerful things of the same level?
He rubbed his hands and chose to turn it on.
Suddenly, the gift package was opened by a special force.
The contents inside are revealed.
This is a dark black cloak. I don’t know what material it is made of, but the surface has a smooth texture like animal skin.
The texture is tough. Xia Mu knew with just a touch that even a bullet couldn't penetrate it.
【Spiritual Cloak (S)】
[Type: Equipment]
[Effect: 1. Passive effect. The cloak unfolds and covers the entire body, which can resist bullet attacks.
2. Passive effect: The cloak reduces air resistance and increases your speed by 20%.
3. Passive effect. When wearing the cloak, you will not be damaged by falling.
[Explanation: In the magical world of the First Dimension, the cloak worn by the thief Valkyrie has its own thoughts and can even automatically help its owner make decisions when necessary.]
[Note: This equipment can continue to grow, gaining more effects as the owner's strength increases.]
“!!!”
Xia Mu looked at the description of the spirit cloak and gradually became stunned.
Is this thing really S-level?
The three effects are basically average. If you say it is strong, it is just average.
You say it is not strong, but at least it can prevent falling damage. Now that he is wearing a cloak and jumps from the 19th floor, he will not be killed by the fall.
The key is that with his current strength, it is unlikely that he would fall from a high place.
If he was not strong enough before, he might really be surprised by the effect of the spirit cloak.
As if sensing Xia Mu's inner thoughts, the Nine-Dimensional System hurriedly explained.
The reason why the Smart Cloak is rated S-level is, of course, not just because of its three standard functions. More importantly, it is intelligent and has its own temperament, which can help the owner make decisions at critical moments.
Moreover, it has just been bound to Xia Mu and is still very weak. These three abilities are its basic functions. As Xia Mu's strength increases, it will continue to unlock various functions.
All growth-type weapons are basically S-level super rare items.
After some systematic explanation, Xia Mu reluctantly put on the cloak.
But a magical scene appeared. As soon as he let go, the black cloak immediately flew up automatically and hovered above Xia Mu.
It seems that he is unwilling to get close to Xia Mu.
Xia Mu was stunned and reached out to grab it, but found that the cloak's reaction speed was terrifyingly fast.
Even with his current terrifying speed, he couldn't even catch this flexible cloak.
"Hoo, hoo, System, please explain to me, is this what you call a manifestation of spiritual intelligence?"
The cloak floated quietly above Xia Mu's head, and from time to time he bent his body and hooked a corner of the cloak, as if provoking Xia Mu to catch him.
"Yes, it must have sensed your emotions, so it instinctively doesn't want to get close to you."
Xia Mu was stunned.
This agile cloak must have sensed the unhappiness in his heart, so it became what it is now.
I didn't expect that this S-level equipment would have such high intelligence.
"I'm sorry, little one. It's my fault. I shouldn't have done this to you."
"From now on, you will stay by my side and we will grow together, okay?"
Xia Mu tried to apologize to the cloak.
He was sincere and his eyes were open, without any pretense.
Surprisingly, the cloak seemed to understand what he said, and it turned in the air and landed lightly on Xia Mu's shoulder.
The two horns closed automatically and were worn on Xia Mu's body.
Suddenly, a light feeling spread throughout my body.
Xia Mu felt as if he had a force on his body, and walking, running and jumping became effortless.
It seems that the spirit cloak should have started to work.
“It’s unexpectedly comfortable.”
Xia Mu rubbed his cloak and felt happy.
With a rustling sound, the cloak fluttered in the air without any wind, as if it was swaying its waist proudly because of Xia Mu's praise.
In addition to Xia Mu, the abilities of the other women have also made great progress.
Xu Xin has now mastered the use of fine iron. Under her control, the fine iron seems to have become a part of her body and can change into various shapes with just a thought.
In addition, her control over electronic devices has expanded to a terrifying level, and she has also developed new abilities.
Su Xiaoshuang was not showing any weakness. Now her invisibility time could be controlled to half an hour.
At the same time, I have also been practicing using melee weapons such as daggers and short knives.
Just as Xu Xin suggested to her, she couldn't be a sniper all her life, as that would be a waste of her abilities.
Zhao Ju's progress is not great. The lightless field itself is an extremely rare field-type skill. As his strength increases, the coverage area will become larger.
Whether it was Xu Xin, Su Xiaoshuang, or Zhao Ju, after using the source bacteria, the three of them also broke through the 80-point mark in combat effectiveness.
After reaching eighty points, they found that the spiritual power, or mental power in their bodies, had reached its limit.
No matter how much they devour the source bacteria, they cannot go any further.
Xia Mu suspected that this situation might happen to all the superpowers in the world except himself.
This is like some special restriction of the way of heaven. After reaching the peak at one level, one must rely on an opportunity to break through to the next stage.
When he told the system his guess, the system also gave an absolutely authoritative explanation.
"Host, you guessed correctly. For ordinary people, once their combat power breaks through 80 points, they will encounter the first bottleneck."
"Unless you kill a true tiger-level creature with your own strength, you will never be able to make any further progress."
