Chapter 140 Energy Overdraft [Second Update]
"What kind of medicine is this?" He Ziqian finally recovered, but his tongue still seemed a little numb and he had trouble speaking.
“It’s for treating internal injuries. It contains an extremely bitter herb called Dichen, which I discovered by chance when I was in Anhexing.
This mysterious medicinal herb, which only existed in the database of the big tree, actually grew in the grass by the roadside like a weed. If it weren't for the little tree's awakening, this inconspicuous herb would not have been discovered.
"Bear with the bitterness. Dichen and water don't mix. After taking the medicine, you can't drink water for at least an hour. Eating some fruit is fine." But the problem is, where can they get fruit in this situation? There's no telling how long Chilin will continue to be crazy.
"Let me take it easy. My mental strength should be able to soothe Chi Lin. Just now, when Chi Lin was 100% activated, I felt that there was something in Chi Lin's body that did not belong to him." He Ziqian frowned slightly, and his words made Ruan Xi frown as well.
"Something that doesn't belong to him? Has Chilin been tampered with? Have you sent Chilin for inspection recently?" Regardless of whether the mecha is damaged or not, it needs regular inspection. As the strongest mecha in the Yinyu Empire, Chilin has a special team that is responsible for all tasks related to Chilin's maintenance.
"I can't be sure when this thing was put in." Hearing the tone of He Ziqian's words, Ruan Xi felt that He Ziqian didn't think that Chi Lin had been tampered with recently, but that this thing had existed in Chi Lin's body long ago, or even at the beginning of his birth.
"You said that the material used to make Chilin is an unknown metal obtained by chance, and all the materials are only used on Chilin?" This means that if there is a problem with Chilin, there is absolutely no object to compare with.
Ruan Xi now suspected that the problem with Chilin was simply the raw material. He couldn't understand it. It was called an "unknown metal," so how could these people be so bold as to use it to build mechas? And even give it to their most powerful warriors? That was incredible reverse thinking.
"You also suspect that there is something wrong with the unknown metal?" He Ziqian's brain waves immediately connected with his little miracle doctor, and there was even a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Judging from your expression, you're not just starting to doubt it now, are you? Chi Lin's so-called 100% activated state is more like a state of madness. At least, that's the case today." Ruan Xi supported his chin with one hand, pinching the soft flesh on his chin unconsciously, immersed in his own thoughts.
He Ziqian didn't bother him. He felt his physical condition and then tried to release his mental power to calm Chi Lin's emotions.
However, just as he made a move, before he even had time to release his mental power, Chi Lin's system showed a resistance reaction, and the mecha started moving violently again. Jumping up and down was not enough to describe how lively it was. Both of them were caught off guard and were immediately thrown around. If He Ziqian had not been quick to grab him into his arms and protect him, he would probably have become the ball in billiards.
"Don't move first! The reason why Chi Lin went crazy is because your mental power suddenly increased. Your mental power is a deadly poison to Chi Lin at this moment. He is rejecting you, but also protecting you." Otherwise, once Chi Lin becomes even crazier, both of them will be finished.
He Ziqian now has no way to control the mecha, and the materials used to make it are extremely special. They can't even get out of the control cabin. The best way is to calm Chi Lin's emotions first.
But how to appease him? Ruan Xi's first concern when using wood energy was energy endurance. He didn't have the confidence to make it all the way alone. If he gave up halfway, the two of them and their mecha would probably die here today.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I shouldn't have tried the medicine on you..." Looking at the chaotic situation, Ruan Xi really felt a little regretful, but he still firmly believed that his medicine was safe. After all, it was Chi Lin who had the problem, not He Ziqian!
"It's not your fault, why are you apologizing, you idiot! Chi Lin's problem didn't just appear today." He Ziqian always had a feeling of insecurity. It seemed that Chi Lin's problem had to be solved as soon as possible, otherwise, once the war broke out, he might lose his most important fighting partner.
"Boom!" A loud noise was heard, and at the same time, the violent vibration threw He Ziqian and Ruan Xi into the air. All the fixing devices on the seats lost their function, and the entire system began to become chaotic.
"This situation is getting bad! Chi Lin seems to be going berserk!" Damn, he won't go crazy enough to just self-destruct, right?
In his previous life, Ruan Xi died of self-destruction due to his supernatural powers. In this life, even if he died, he was determined not to repeat that death.
"Big Tree, think of a solution!"
Ruan Xi subconsciously asked the big tree for help, and then the big tree directly threw him an energy core. It was very small, only as big as a peanut, but the energy contained in it was definitely not to be underestimated.
"What kind of energy core is this? Is it... wood energy?" Ruan Xi felt the energy vibration of the same element, and he suddenly relaxed. At the same time, his body began to absorb the energy in the energy core autonomously, without him having to do anything.
The most important thing is that the absorbed wood energy is completely safe!
"This is the wood energy core I purified. There's no time left. You need to absorb the energy while comforting Chi Lin. His system is about to collapse!"
The big tree has the most sensitive perception of all energy. Ruan Xi and He Ziqian had no doubts at all. They did whatever the big tree said.
"Let He Ziqian try to use his mental power to find any abnormalities in Chilin's body. Remember, do not touch Chilin's system, as this will only make Chilin's condition worse."
"I understand." Ruan Xi immediately told He Ziqian what Dashu said.
"Understood. I won't touch Chilin's system."
Both of them knew that Chilin's system was now a time bomb that could explode at any time. That would be terrible, and most of the base would be destroyed!
Ruan Xi would never allow such a thing to happen, and his expression instantly became even colder and more resolute.
"Ruan Xi, be careful!"
"Well, you should be careful too."
The two of them gave each other strength with their eyes, and then went about their business.
"Xiao Xi, wood energy is the safest and warmest energy. As long as you don't harbor any ill will towards Chi Lin, he won't resist your energy invasion. Remember, what you need to do is the exact opposite of what He Ziqian did. You must invade Chi Lin's system core as quickly as possible to prevent his collapse."
The big tree guided Ruan Xi step by step. When the wood energy in his body accumulated to its peak, the big tree immediately gave orders.
"Get in there!"
Ruan Xi didn't reply, but he instantly transformed his wood-type ability into a long, sharp and hard needle. Without giving Chi Lin any chance to react, he pierced into the core of Chi Lin's control system in one go. Using this long needle as a channel, he continuously and rapidly input a large amount of wood-type energy. Almost in an instant, the entire control system of Chi Lin was dyed a light green.
This is a color that is full of vitality and can also make people calm.
This is true for humans and mechas as well.
Chi Lin finally calmed down, no longer crazy or irritable. He stood there quietly, the red light on the surface of his body gradually becoming lighter until it disappeared.
Chi Lin turned back into the Chi Lin that everyone was most familiar with, but at the same time, everyone felt that Chi Lin had undergone some changes and could never go back to the past.
Ruan Xi's energy output was so intense that he almost collapsed the moment he withdrew his hand. This time, He Ziqian was concentrating on his work, and it was the big tree that extended its branches in time to catch him.
"How does it feel?"
"The feeling of being hollowed out..." So empty, so hungry...
This feeling of being so hungry that it seemed as if the soul was burning to replenish energy made Ruan Xi feel powerless and powerless. He didn't even want to move a finger.
"This is an overdraft of energy, but it is not without benefits. When you fill up your energy again, you will become even stronger!" Dashu said with certainty, but it did not give Ruan Xi much strength. Now there was only one word left in his heart - hungry.
At this moment, He Ziqian's surprised voice came.
“Found it!”
He Ziqian opened his eyes as he spoke, but before he could be happy, he saw Ruan Xi lying weakly on the chair. He was immediately startled and rushed over and hugged the person in his arms.
"Are you hurt?"
"No...energy overdrawn...hungry..." Ruan Xi forced himself to say these words. He was so tired that he could hardly open his eyes. He looked like he could faint at any time, which frightened He Ziqian.
At this time, the door of the control cabin automatically popped open, and He Ziqian immediately jumped down holding Ruan Xi. Then, he was surrounded by the members of the Goshawk Squad. Everyone gasped when they saw Ruan Xi looking so weak.
"team leader……"
But before he could ask anything, he was interrupted by his captain's deep voice, "Nutrients!"
"ah?"
"Nutrients!"
"Oh oh oh... I have some here..." Everyone quickly searched for the nutritional supplements they brought with them, and in the blink of an eye, they had gathered more than a dozen. He Ziqian immediately fed them to Ruan Xi, one after another, and soon all the more than ten nutritional supplements were eaten. Although Ruan Xi had recovered some energy, it was obvious that he had not eaten enough.
"Here I am! I brought all the remaining nutrient supplements in the warehouse!" Lao Jiu looked Mu Na, but at this time he became the smartest one. While everyone was rummaging through the nutrient supplements on their bodies, he simply moved all the nutrient supplements in the small warehouse in the training ground. There were three boxes in total, with a total of 300 supplements.
Is this enough to eat?
But the final result scared everyone.
"Fuck! Three hundred of them! I ate them all, and it's still not enough? Where did the little genius doctor get all the food? His stomach isn't even bloated..."
"Isn't the little genius doctor's stomach connected to another world too far?"
However, after taking more than 300 nutritional supplements, Ruan Xi finally regained his basic ability to move. He no longer felt so hungry that his soul was burning. However, the feeling of emptiness in his body was still very obvious. He finally realized that what he needed was not regular food.
But energy.
"Big Tree, do you have any wood energy cores left? Can you give me another one?"
Big Tree: “…”
I feel like spanking my child, what should I do? Waiting online, very urgent!
