Chapter 59 Ling Xiao's Promotion
Ling Xiao's training became more and more diligent, enduring pain that he dared not bear at this age.
The little face often has a serious expression that is inconsistent with the baby's appearance.
The tech geek was temporarily placed in a hidden crevice of the ruins to recuperate.
Bai Li sent him food and water regularly through the zombies.
Make sure he doesn't die of hunger or thirst.
But the improvement plan for Miaoche can only be put on hold temporarily.
At present, safety comes first.
After several days of close monitoring,
Bai Li found that the atmosphere at Hope Base had indeed changed.
The number of guards on the wall increased,
Patrols are more frequent.
Inspections of convoys entering and leaving the base have become extremely strict.
Sometimes there are even brief congestion.
She even saw a few times,
People wearing white protective suits who looked like researchers appeared on the wall.
Pointing outside, as if collecting data or observing something.
What exactly are they looking for?
Or are you on guard against something?
Bai Li's doubts grew deeper and deeper.
She tried to get the Crow Sentinel to lower its altitude.
Venture close to the base for reconnaissance.
But the base seems to have strengthened its air defense awareness.
A few times a crow flew a little lower,
It will attract the guards' vigilant gazes and even warning shots.
Bai Li didn't dare to take any more risks and could only let the crow circle higher in the sky, capturing details with its sharp eyes.
This day,
A crow sent back an unusual image.
On the side of Hope Base, in a relatively remote section of the wall,
There were new, strange marks on the ground.
Not ruts, not footprints,
It's a kind of... scratches left by something heavy being dragged.
Is there still some sticky, dark green residue around the edge of the scratch?
The trace extended all the way to a drainage pipe under the wall and disappeared.
Bai Li immediately focused his attention and asked the crow to carefully scout the area.
The drainage pipe opening seemed to have been expanded due to violent damage.
There are several deep marks on the surrounding walls, as if left by sharp claws!
Seeing these claw marks,
Bai Li's heart sank suddenly!
The shape and depth of the claw marks...
It instantly reminded her of that terrifying alien!
Although there are some subtle differences, the feeling of tearing everything apart is extremely similar!
Could it be that the patrol was attacked?
Is it really another alien?
Or... another monster of the same race?
Are they actively attacking human bases?
Or...what happened inside the Hope Base?
Bai Li felt a chill running from the tip of his tail to the top of his head.
If it really is that kind of monster,
Hope Base is probably in big trouble!
And trouble often means chaos and danger.
She immediately ordered all reconnaissance units to
Pay special attention to whether there are any similar claw marks or suspicious traces outside Hope Base.
at the same time,
She herself became more vigilant.
His spiritual perception was elevated to the extreme, carefully scanning every inch of land around the territory, fearing that he would miss any suspicious signs.
Fortunately,
No similar traces have been found within her territory so far.
But that invisible feeling of oppression is getting heavier and heavier.
Like the silence before a storm,
It's suffocating.
In this high-pressure environment,
Bai Li trained even harder.
She knew she wasn't strong enough.
It’s far from enough.
If that kind of monster really appeared in groups,
With her current strength, it is difficult for her to protect herself, let alone protect the little ancestor.
She turned her anxiety and fear into motivation.
Crazy squeezing of one's potential.
The spirit cat swung its claws again and again until its claws were sore.
The mental shock was released again and again until the head was swollen.
His movements became faster and more cunning.
She even started trying more dangerous training.
For example, controlling multiple zombies at the same time to carry out complex tactical coordination,
Or try to compress the mental shock into sharper mental thorns to achieve stronger single-target lethality.
The progress is obvious.
At the same time, she urgently needed a new, higher quality source of crystal cores.
Her gaze,
I couldn't help but look at the fat orange who was sleeping soundly again.
Alien crystal core...
The purest and most powerful crystal core is in Fat Orange's belly.
As long as she gets it, her strength will definitely leap forward again!
She came close to Fat Orange, gently pushed it with her paws, and rubbed it with her head.
Try to please and communicate in various ways.
"Fat Orange, good Fat Orange, you are the best~"
"Spit out that black lump, and I'll open ten cans of premium food for you!"
"Just spit it out or lick it!"
The spiritual thoughts are full of temptation and flattery.
Fat Orange was annoyed by the noise and opened his sleepy eyes.
The amber eyes were filled with disgust and helplessness.
It smacked its lips and seemed to hesitate for a moment.
There was a gurgling sound in the throat.
Then……
puff!
It spit out a half-eaten sausage.
He turned over, facing his butt towards Bai Li, and his snoring became louder.
Bai Li: “…”
Forget it, it seems there is no hope of getting anything from Fat Orange.
This foodie is impossible to communicate with!
She sighed and could only turn her gaze to the outside world.
We must take the initiative and look for stronger prey.
But the anomalies around the Hope Base made her afraid to leave the territory easily.
What if that monster came to her doorstep while she was out...
She couldn't bear to think of the consequences.
Just when Bai Li was worried about resources and strength,
Ling Xiao's cultivation has also reached a critical moment.
The toothpick-thick spiritual energy in his Dantian,
After being transported, compressed and condensed day and night,
Finally it became as solid as substance,
Emitting a faint blue glow.
It's time!
A hint of determination flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes.
He recalled a secret technique he had accidentally acquired in his previous life.
Stardust Vortex Method.
This secret method is not a profound path, but rather a bit dangerous.
Its core lies in the extreme compression and purification of spiritual energy, creating a micro spiritual energy vortex deep in the Dantian.
Based on this, one can absorb and refine external spiritual energy more quickly and greatly enhance the instantaneous explosive power of spiritual power.
The advantage is that the initial progress is rapid.
The disadvantage is that the compression process is extremely painful.
It also puts a huge strain on the meridians, and the foundation may be damaged if you are not careful.
In his previous life, he naturally looked down upon this kind of trickery.
But now, the situation is stronger than people.
He needs strength, even just a little bit!
He carefully guided the condensed spiritual energy.
Like controlling an extremely thin and tough silk thread,
Towards the depths of Dantian, an extremely obscure acupoint that was sensed in the dark was slowly explored.
Buzz!
As soon as we came into contact,
An indescribable pain, as if the soul was torn apart, came instantly!
Ling Xiao's face turned pale in an instant, cold sweat dripped down, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
But he clenched his teeth tightly and made no sound.
Continue to guide the spiritual energy with great perseverance and drill into the depths of the acupoint!
compression!
concise!
Spin!
Every tiny advance was accompanied by excruciating pain.
