Chapter 127 The True Form of the Spherical Relic (Updated)
In Li Qi's room, Ronnie was looking at Li Qi expectantly.
Li Qi frowned slightly, touched Ronnie's arm with his hand, and nodded after a while:
"Yes, it is indeed 'qi'."
“Oh yeah!!!!!”
Ronnie was so excited that he jumped three feet high and almost hit the roof.
Li Qi looked at Ronnie with a little curiosity.
Carol and Maru said that Li Qi was a genius, perhaps a better genius than Weiner.
But what is actually happening, only Li Qi himself knows.
His talent is not in the Tanwu family, his talent in this life is in the relics.
Being able to make a contract with any relic is his talent.
And his 'Qi' comes from his practice of magic in his previous life.
In Li Qi's opinion, any power actually has the same end result. Whether it is magic or qi, its essence is the control of energy.
As long as you master the method of controlling energy, even if you come into contact with other energy, you can control it and strengthen yourself.
The 'Qi Circuit' in Li Qi's body is the best proof.
So his 'genius' comes from his knowledge of magic, from the knowledge of another world.
But Ronnie was different.
Ronnie really only entered the foggy area once, and after coming out, he mastered the "Chi".
Speaking of genius, this little golden retriever who doesn't look very smart is the real genius.
But then again, judging from Ronnie's performance, it doesn't seem like he can control his energy so easily. What did this kid go through after separating from Ronnie yesterday?
His eyes fell on the crystal on Ronnie's chest, and Li Qi asked, "After you went back yesterday, did you feel anything wrong with your body?"
"Something's wrong?" Ronnie tilted his head and thought about it excitedly. "Nothing's wrong. My body is still hurting, and... um, does it count as a dream?"
"Dream? What dream?"
"I dreamed... I dreamed about meeting you in the welfare home before..."
Ronnie hesitated before answering.
Li Qi frowned:
"That's it?"
"Well, that's all..."
Ronnie nodded.
From what he described, there didn't seem to be anything noteworthy. As for the previous meeting with Ronnie... Li Qi had actually forgotten it a long time ago.
When he and Ronnie first met, Li Qi's memory had just been awakened and his mind was still confused. Apart from collecting materials and trying to make alchemical props every day, his mind could not hold anything else.
Naturally, I also forgot about Ronnie, whom I had met once before.
And it doesn’t matter whether he remembers Ronnie or not. It has nothing to do with the other party’s sudden awakening of energy.
Li Qi's intuition told him that Ronnie's awakening of Qi might be related to the other party's special relic.
After a little thought, Li Qi pointed at Ronnie's crystal and said:
"Show it to me."
"good."
The little golden retriever took the crystal without any hesitation and placed it in Li Qi's palm with great trust.
Holding the more transparent crystal in both hands, Li Qi injected his own energy into it, but encountered an obstacle.
This is a situation that I didn't encounter the last time I studied crystals.
"interesting……"
There was a gleam of interest in Li Qi's eyes. He controlled the Qi to flow inside the crystal, trying to find a breakthrough.
But in the end, nothing was found, instead the crystal seemed to have changed color.
In the clean and transparent space that could be seen from one side to the other, a hint of red appeared.
Maybe that's the color of anger.
Special-grade relics... have their own emotions? Li Qi thought of Jinghua's statement that relics above level 2 were all made by human life, and he didn't find it strange.
Perhaps possessing some unique self-awareness is one of the characteristics of special-grade relics.
Seeing that the red color in the crystal was becoming more and more intense, in order to avoid any accidents, Li Qi returned the crystal to Ronnie.
"Your relic has awakened."
After returning it to Ronnie, Li Qi made a judgment.
Ronnie thought about the "strange thing" that happened this morning when he suddenly disappeared and reappeared. He didn't think Li Qi was lying to him, so he nodded and said, "I think so too. The "whoosh" disappearance and "whoosh" reappearance today might be the power of the crystal."
“…That’s called teleportation.”
Li Qi corrected Ronnie's address and looked at Crystal again.
The abilities of relics above level one begin to become 'magical'.
The 'magic cube' that can transform into any relic, the 'mirage ring' that creates illusions, and now the 'crystal' that can allow people to teleport.
Compared to the abilities of the first two relics, the ability of the crystal is somewhat plain and simple.
This ability doesn't sound like something a special-grade relic should have, unless it can take Ronnie to any corner of the world in an instant.
Li Qi really wanted to experiment with the abilities of the crystal.
But...except for that time in the morning, Ronnie tried countless times today, but failed to activate the power of the crystal again.
Li Qi had no choice but to give up for the time being.
Looking at Ronnie who was curiously fiddling with his crystal, Li Qi suddenly said to him: "Get ready and go to the foggy area with me in a few days."
"ah?"
Ronnie was stunned and stopped fiddling with the crystal.
He pointed at himself and said, "Me? Going to the foggy area? Really?"
"Now that you have mastered the Qi, you are qualified to go to the fog zone. You don't need to undergo special training anymore."
Li Qi said to Ronnie, raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said with a smile:
"Congratulations, Ronnie, you are now a Mist Explorer."
…
The conditions for becoming a fog explorer are actually not that rigid to some extent.
Newcomers to the fog zone do need to undergo a full year of special training before they can officially enter the fog zone, but this is not absolute and there are exceptions.
Let’s not talk about Li Qi, who skipped special training and entered the fog area directly by relying on the relationship between Carol and Maru.
Ronnie, who was able to master the "Qi" in advance, also has the qualifications to enter the fog area.
After all, the reason why the association wants to provide special training for newcomers is that they are worried that they are not strong enough and will rashly enter the fog area and die.
Especially for newcomers who have not experienced the backlash of fog, they need to train seriously.
But if you master the 'Qi', you will have a certain resistance to the backlash of the fog.
Anyway, regardless of anything else, at least a layer of fog area is nothing to Ronnie.
That was why Li Qi chose to make Ronnie his team member and go into the foggy area with him to take the 'heavy fog level' fog explorer assessment.
After all, there is a very important criterion for becoming a heavy fog explorer, which is to be able to bring newcomers back safely from the fog area.
After all, when you reach the heavy fog level, you can lead the team into the fog area to explore.
When you reach the Mist level, you will be eligible to join the deep exploration team, and the outstanding ones among them will take over the management of the team if the Black Mist leader is unable to return.
For example, Maru.
After Weiner left the team and entered the sea of fog, Maru became the captain of the exploration team.
This time, Li Qi conducted an assessment on the team leader, just like the heavy fog level that day when he led the new fog explorers into the fog area.
Ronnie wasn't the only one being led, there were other newcomers to the Wu family as well.
Li Qi's mission is to bring them out of the fog area safely.
This was not difficult for Li Qi. With his experience as the captain of the magic brigade in his previous life, managing a group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old kids was a piece of cake for Li Qi.
The only thing we need to worry about is whether there will be other unexpected events in this foggy area.
Due to this concern, Carol also followed Li Qi into the foggy area, nominally to conduct an assessment, but in fact to protect Li Qi.
This loli aunt, whose age is unknown, really cares about Li Qi's safety.
Carol, Li Qi and a group of newcomers entered the fog area.
The city of Rubino has also welcomed new 'guests'.
That's a big shot from the royal capital.
After they got the news about Rubino City, they rushed here from the royal capital, and only arrived in Rubino today to meet Maru.
"Minister Ricker, I didn't expect you to come in person."
In the association, Maru led his team members to welcome the important people coming from the royal capital.
When he saw the middle-aged man with short gray hair who was in the lead, he immediately stepped forward and saluted.
The middle-aged man with short gray hair and a slightly harsh face nodded to Malu after seeing him, and then asked, "Captain Malu, where is the relic?"
"Inside."
Maru made an inviting gesture and let the middle-aged man with gray hair enter the room where the white ball was kept.
Ricker, dressed in a white robe, immediately entered with his entourage.
A white sphere that was suspected to be a special-grade relic appeared before his eyes.
The moment Rick saw the white ball, he was stunned.
His hands were shaking and his expression was excited, like a fanatic with fanatical faith who had just seen the god he believed in, and he walked tremblingly to the sphere.
"Sure enough...Sure enough...It's definitely it!"
Ricker was excited, and most of the entourage he brought with him had the same expression as him, standing in front of the white sphere with excited looks.
Seeing the deputy director of the Royal Capital Relic Production Department so excited, Malu's eyes flickered and he stepped forward and asked:
"Minister Ricker, do you know what it is?"
Ricker was breathing rapidly. He didn't look at Maru, but turned to Maru and asked, "Where did you find this thing?"
"On the fourth layer's misty snowfield, near the frozen lakeshore of the fog sea, a fight between fog beasts some time ago caused the lake surface to crack, exposing a ruin hidden at the bottom of the lake. The sphere was found in the ruins at the bottom of the lake."
Maru explained truthfully.
The fog beasts in the fourth-layer fog zone are generally larger in size.
The battle between two overlord-level fog beasts was tens of meters long and the aftermath of the battle was enough to cause an earthquake of magnitude 5 or 6.
The ruins at the bottom of the lake were revealed at that time, and Weiner then sent people to contact the fog explorers stationed at the fourth-floor outpost, and they worked together to open up a passage to the bottom of the lake.
Only the exploration team can enter the ruins and take out the spherical relics.
“Is there a statue of a woman in a white robe in the ruins at the bottom of the lake?”
Ricker asked again.
Malu recalled and said, "I don't know if she was wearing a white robe, but there was indeed a broken statue of a woman."
“As expected! As expected!!”
Ricker became even more excited.
Maru was even more confused.
Logically speaking, for a Mist Explorer like him who is close to the Black Mist level, there should be no secrets in this kingdom that he doesn't know.
But Maru had no impression of either the white sphere or the statue at the bottom of the lake.
But Ricker seemed to know everything.
Thinking of Ricker's royal blood, Maru had some guesses in his mind.
Perhaps... the ruins that Maru encountered in the foggy area this time, and this white sphere, are both related to the royal family.
This is probably the secret about their origins that the royal family has never mentioned.
Thanks to 'Mentu Kuandong' for the 5000 starting coins reward, thank you!!!
