Chapter 324: Extreme speed 20 Mach, huge force 350,000 pounds, not far from the first cosmic speed
The sunset over the East African grasslands cast a golden edge on Li Xiang's giant whale armor, making his burly figure look like a god descending from heaven.
In fact, some of the gods in myths and legends are not as good as him.
When coming to a backward place like Africa, Li Xiang doesn't even need to act at night, he can act recklessly in broad daylight.
His top speed of Mach 15 is equivalent to 5.1 kilometers per second, 306 kilometers per minute, and can run 15,000 kilometers in 50 minutes. In other words, in the case of extreme burst, one sprint is 15,000 kilometers.
It only takes about ten minutes to get here from India, three or four thousand kilometers. In big cities, during rush hour, many people take taxis, and it may take ten minutes or even longer to wait for a taxi.
While ordinary people were waiting for the bus, Li Xiang was traveling across continents.
Of course, when he arrived at the African continent, he had to slow down because he had to look for targets.
The basic version of the "Mutant Organism Identification Function" that he had previously exchanged for 100 achievement points only covered a range of about ten meters. Now that his strength has greatly improved, the ten-meter range feels very useless. Therefore, he spent another 10,000 points to exchange for a super-enhanced version of the "Mutant Organism Identification Function", which can cover a radius of about three kilometers and can lock on a single one.
In the past, it would only indicate which potential mutant creatures were within ten meters. If they were a nest or a group, it would be impossible to distinguish them and they had to be carried out individually to ten meters away and identified one by one. But now, if there are potential mutant creatures within a range of three thousand meters, a map will appear in the mind and the target objects will be marked with light spots.
This is a bit like a life detector, but more advanced, specifically designed to detect mutated or potentially mutated organisms.
A sharp roar suddenly erupted in the dust raised by the wildebeests in the distance. Li Xiang jumped to a high altitude and looked down. His eyes were shining with spiritual power. He saw three sub-adult male lions surrounded by more than forty spotted hyenas.
These gray and yellow, shabby beasts arched their backs in a funny way, and their fangs covered with rotten flesh were tearing at the lion's hind legs.
The lions were "divided" and the hyenas were divided into three groups, besieging the three lions.
Even though the lion roared continuously, it still could not withstand the bites of the hyenas.
Moreover, these hyenas are very cunning. They often divide several of them into frontal feint attacks, several of them into flank attacks, and several of them take turns attacking the lion's vital points (which are the hyenas' favorite buttocks).
"Disgusting." Li Xiang frowned. To be honest, if there was any animal that he hated, hyenas would definitely be one of them, and they would rank very high.
You say you are a good beast, your status on the African savannah is second only to the lion, and you have the title of "Second Brother of Africa". Why don't you fight fairly and squarely, but have to like to dig anal holes?
What surprised Li Xiang was that among the spotted hyenas, one was the hyena queen, and the system prompted that she was a potential mutant creature of level 16.
Li Xiang was not polite.
His body flashed, and in just a few tenths of a second, he arrived at the scene of the fight. He flicked his finger, and a sharp, icy energy shot out. It was the ice sword energy.
"Shh~"
A hole immediately appeared on the head of the hyena queen who was digging her anus, and she was shot through by the ice sword energy. However, due to the amazing coldness contained in the ice sword energy, the wound was frozen and blood did not spurt out.
With the improvement of realm, the power of the Ice Sword Qi is naturally incomparable to the past. Moreover, Li Xiang has also upgraded this ability and turned it into a sword diagram. It can be fired in bursts or in unison. The current "magazine capacity" is about 3,000 rounds.
If it is used up at once, it will take about three days to fully recharge. But in the current environment, Li Xiang has never emptied the magazine.
“Shh~” “Shh~” “Shh~”
Although only the hyena queen had extraordinary potential, Li Xiang did not let go of the other hyenas, and killed them all with his sword energy. It only took more than 30 sword energies, because there were several of them, and he killed two or three hyenas at once. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
The beasts fled in panic.
To Li Xiang's regret, those wildebeests and lions were of average quality, and the taste of their meat was not good, so he let them go.
He doesn't like the wild animals in Africa, even if they are delicious, because there are too many viruses here, all kinds of strange viruses. But the cattle, sheep, deer, etc. produced in other continents, Europe, Australia, South America, North America, Japan, etc. are of very good quality, so he naturally picks the best ones.
System: "Congratulations to the host for killing the hyena queen of the 16th-level mutant creature class. You will be rewarded with 1,600 achievement points, three 8th-level mutant spiritual medicine poison grass, and a 14th-level extraordinary item, anal claw."
Li Xiang: "What the hell?"
The poisonous grass is fine, as it can be refined into armor-piercing toxins. If given to Zhao Xueqing, it can enhance the power of the poisonous thorns on its vines. But what kind of perverted spiritual weapon is the "anal hook"?
I saw that this "Anal Hook" was shaped like a curved blade and had two extraordinary properties. One was "tearing". After being hit, the wound would be difficult to heal; the other was "armor breaking". That is to say, even if you use spiritual armor to protect your anus, if the quality of the spiritual armor is not high and the protective power is not particularly strong, for example, only level five or six, it will not be able to withstand the attack of this fourteenth-level "Anal Hook".
Li Xiang couldn't help but think of the scene of the enemy's anus bleeding, and he couldn't help shaking his head. He probably wouldn't need this kind of weapon in the future. If he took it out and used it, it would be too embarrassing. He estimated that none of the warriors under his command would like this perverted weapon, so he just threw it into the warehouse.
On the Kenyan grasslands, Li Xiang set his sights on a fourteenth-level "Earth-Splitting Rhino".
This rhinoceros was huge, with thick skin and flesh, weighing at least three tons. When it saw Li Xiang, it was quite brave and did not run away. Instead, it took a step forward, causing the ground to shake, and it rushed towards him like a tank.
With such a huge body, even the most powerful lion king on the grassland would not dare to confront it head-on, but Li Xiang was naturally not afraid at all. He slapped out with one hand, an ordinary palm, without using all his strength, and easily knocked the rhino into a deep pit, unable to get up.
To deal with these ordinary beasts, Li Xiang did not even bother to use his extraordinary spiritual weapons. He could easily crush them using his fists and feet alone, and he could also practice his martial arts at the same time.
With a force of 270,000 jin, even if it used only 10% of its strength, it would still be 27,000 jin. How could the rhino resist it? The thing the rhino regretted most before dying was probably not running away. But even if it ran away, it would definitely not be able to escape.
System: "Congratulations to the host for killing the fourteenth-level mutant Earth-Splitting Rhino. You will be rewarded with 1,400 achievement points, three portions of the seventh-level mutant spiritual medicine Earth Vein Rhino Horn Powder, and a twelfth-level extraordinary item, the Heavy Mountain Heart-Protecting Mirror."
In addition to the spiritual power contained in the "Earth Vein Rhino Horn Powder", it also has the effect of strengthening bones, but for Li Xiang now, the effect is probably just average. The strength of his bones can support a huge force of 270,000 kilograms, so why does he need this seventh-level spiritual medicine?
"It would be a good choice for Yao Yao." Li Xiang thought. If Yao Mei used the art of splitting her body into two parts too much, she might suffer from calcium deficiency and osteoporosis. It would be just right to supplement it with this seventh-level "Earth Vein Rhino Horn Powder".
The "Heavy Mountain Heart Mirror" is naturally a defensive treasure. In addition, it has an extraordinary attribute "rebound", which can "return the opponent's attack in his own way" and rebound 30% of the opponent's attack, which is also quite good. In the future, when Li Xiang refines the crystal vein spirit armor, he can inlay this heart mirror on it, so that he can produce a high-level fine armor.
…
Heavy rain poured down in the Congo Basin. The sound of Li Xiang crushing dead branches startled the dark shadows in the treetops. Three silverback gorillas beat their moss-covered chests. The leader's eyes were red as blood, and he swung his palm to cut the bucket-thick vines.
These three silverback gorillas were used to being arrogant, and just like the rhinoceros before, they didn't even take Li Xiang seriously.
"A bit stupid." Li Xiang looked down on such a tactless person, so, facing the opponent's fierce attack, he did not dodge at all, but simply kicked, and the gorilla leader flew backwards in an instant.
The head exploded like an unripe watermelon, with red and white objects flying everywhere.
System: "Congratulations to the host for killing the fifteenth-level mutant creature, the Mad Ape King. You will be rewarded with 1,500 achievement points, three seventh-level mutant spiritual medicines, Giant Strength Grass, and a pair of thirteenth-level extraordinary items, the Ape King Fists."
After taking "Giant Strength Grass", one can strengthen muscles, bones, qi and blood. The thirteenth-level "Ape King Boxing Gloves" comes with two extraordinary attributes, "Giant Strength" and "Shock", which can increase strength by five thousand kilograms, and also come with a "shock wave" attack.
However, these things are too useless to Li Xiang now. These treasures that he had dreamed of in his previous life, in this life, Li Xiang simply "discarded them like rags". They are only suitable for rewarding his subordinates and winning people's hearts.
…
In the Sahara Desert, the night wind blew sand particles against the armor, and Li Xiang's night vision pupils suddenly shrank - on the sand dunes five kilometers away, thirteen desert wolves were hunting dromedaries.
When Li Xiang approached within 3,000 meters, the system prompted that there was a potential mutant "Crescent White Wolf King".
With a flash of his body, he chopped out with a palm, killing the White Wolf King. He gained 1,600 achievement points, three eighth-level elixir sandstorm fruits, and a fourteenth-level Wolf King Fang Necklace. This necklace was very impressive, with two extraordinary attributes of "quicksand" and "moon change".
"Quicksand" means that you can manipulate quicksand, but "Moon Change" has some flaws. All attributes can be improved by about 20% on a moonlit night. However, when the end of the world comes, the moon no longer "shines", so where does the moonlit night come from?
However, Li Xiang remembered that in his previous life, he had seen a mutated firefly that was as big as a mountain. When it flew in the night sky, it was indeed "bright as the moon", illuminating the area for dozens of miles as if it were daytime in the old days. Perhaps, when that kind of firefly appeared, the person wearing this necklace could also improve all attributes? Even so, it was a bit useless, but it was still good to use in peacetime.
Afterwards, Li Xiang met another "Red Flame Scorpion King" and obtained 1,200 achievement points, three sixth-level spiritual medicine Burning Marrow Fire Lotuses, and a tenth-level extraordinary item Purple Gold Blazing Poison Tail Stinger.
"These two things are particularly suitable for Xiaohui." Li Xiang thought of Lei Xiaohui, who had a Taoist fire constitution. This elixir and extraordinary item would be quite suitable as a gift to her.
Li Xiang thought of Hui'er, who had a body temperature of 45 degrees, was tall and strong, and looked heroic, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
The "Purple Gold Fiery Poison Tail Thorn" is shaped like a western rapier, extremely sharp, and has two extraordinary properties: "Red Flame Corroding Bones" and "Poisonous Explosion".
"Red Flame Eroding Bone" is of fire attribute, which can enhance the power of Lei Xiaohui's flames and add a continuous burning effect when attacking. The flames also contain bone-eating toxins extracted from the scorpion king's glands, causing additional damage.
"Poison Explosion" is the attribute of scorpion poison. Each attack adds a layer of red scorpion mark. When the mark accumulates to five layers, it can trigger the poison explosion, causing astonishing damage.
Lei Xiaohui has a Taoist fire constitution, full of spiritual energy and non-toxic, but when using this "thunder sword", the attack power is even more fierce, and the damage and lethality caused to the enemy are greatly enhanced.
There was no other way. He had just adopted them and was raising them as his mistresses. He couldn't give them any status, so he had to favor and pamper them a little while feeling guilty. Fortunately, the three girls didn't care much about this, which made Li Xiang feel much more relaxed. So he thought of bringing them some special things as gifts.
Your own woman must be armed to the teeth and have stronger self-protection capabilities.
Li Xiang was thinking that Yao Yao's clone also had to be armed, otherwise the clone would come out to help with bare hands and would suffer some loss.
When Nezha transformed into a three-headed, six-armed being, he was a law enforcement treasure, so Yaomei naturally couldn't lose the situation.
Fortunately, Li Xiang has countless extraordinary items, and he can always help the three of them pick out suitable equipment.
…
Li Xiang traveled across the African continent, including East Africa, South Africa, West Africa, and North Africa, and naturally visited the famous island of Madagascar. There are three very good animated films named after this, which are quite well-known.
Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world. It is about 1,500 kilometers long from north to south and about 500 kilometers wide from east to west. It has a coastline of about 5,000 kilometers. It is separated from the African continent by the Mozambique Channel, and the closest distance to the African continent is 400 kilometers away.
Around Madagascar there are large and small islands such as the Comoros Islands, Seychelles Islands, Mauritius Island and Reunion Island.
In the crescent-shaped bay, Li Xiang's hand holding the lemur suddenly stopped, then he threw the lemur away and went to his destination.
He discovered a huge bat cave. When Li Xiang used the earth escape technique to enter the cave, he saw many bats hanging upside down on the top of the cave.
The "Mutated Organism Identification Map" shows numerous light spots, and it is roughly estimated that there are at least more than 10,000 mutants with extraordinary potential.
This is Li Xiang’s favorite. Although their levels are not high, they gather together to sleep during the day, making it very convenient to harvest.
A khaki light burst out, and the giant bat cave collapsed.
The system prompts kept refreshing the screen: "Congratulations to the host, you have killed the third-order mutant creature, the yellow-haired fruit bat..."
"Congratulations to the host for killing the eighth-level mutant creature, the yellow-haired fruit bat..."
In the end, Li Xiang obtained 860,000 achievement points and more than 30,000 spiritual medicines from level one to level seven, including "Winged Membrane Ganoderma Lucidum", "Night Crying Fruit", "Moon Viewing Flower" and so on.
In addition, there are two extraordinary items, one is the "Bat-Wing Cloak", which is silent and light when gliding, and the other is the eleventh-level "Blood Kiss Dagger", which can absorb blood to heal its own injuries.
Later, Li Xiang discovered many other bat caves, some of which were in baobab trees, but the number of bats in the trees was small, while the bat colonies in some caves were larger. In addition to fruit bats (Pteropus), there are also long-nosed bats, wrinkled-lipped bats, and horseshoe bats.
These bats on the African continent alone contributed more than five million achievement points to Li Xiang, and nearly 200,000 spiritual medicines, which was a gratifying harvest.
After this battle, the number of bats on the African continent dropped by at least 70%, and 30% escaped the net. After all, it was impossible for Li Xiang to kill them all.
…
Li Xiang had not upgraded "Great Strength" and "Super Speed" for a long time. Looking at the more than 9 million achievement points on the system panel at this time, he felt a great sense of accomplishment. He immediately upgraded "Great Strength" and "Super Speed" to the limit once again, that is, the limit that his current body and realm can support.
Previously, its top speed was Mach 15 and its force was 270,000 catties. Now, it has been upgraded to Mach 20 and its force is 350,000 catties. It only cost 1.35 million achievement points, and there are still more than 7.9 million points left.
Although there are still plenty of achievement points left, Li Xiang can't put any more points into "Great Strength" and "Divine Speed". If it's any higher, his body won't be able to withstand it. He can only wait until his realm is improved in the future.
He thought about it and spent another 500,000 points on each of the two "Endurance" inscriptions. Naturally, the "Fighting Power" was greatly improved, which can be said to have increased by at least three times.
Yao Yao, who was far away in Sichuan Province, was bragging to Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui about her and Li Xiang's dual cultivation process. After all, she was the one who persisted the longest among the three and fought for two hours before falling into a disadvantage, unlike Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui, who begged for mercy after half an hour.
But at this moment, Sister Yao suddenly shuddered, and a bad feeling arose in her heart.
"What's wrong, girl?" Lei Xiaohui asked her.
Yao Yao quickly shook her head and said, "Nothing, nothing. It's not good to talk about this during working hours. Come on, let's talk about work."
Zhao Xueqing: “…”
Lei Xiaohui: “…”
I wondered why Yaoer had changed her personality. She became so serious all of a sudden. It was really hard to get used to her.
The three women have a good relationship, so it is reasonable for them to talk about private matters.
…
As the endurance inscription is strengthened, Li Xiang's long-distance attack ability will naturally improve as well.
In the past, when he was running at top speed, he could only last for 40 to 50 minutes before he had to stop and rest. But now, he can run for two or three hours without stopping. What does this mean? The top speed of Mach 20 is 6.8 kilometers per second, 408 kilometers per minute, and 24,480 kilometers per hour. In two or three hours, he can go around the earth with some spare capacity. The earth is his backyard.
The only regret is that it cannot fly, but at such a high speed, it is almost the same as flying at low altitude. It just cannot go into space.
Because the first cosmic velocity is 7.9 km/s and the second cosmic velocity is 11.2 km/s (this is the minimum speed that can escape the earth's gravity), Li Xiang's current maximum speed is only 6.8 km/s, so he cannot go into space.
Perhaps, he can give it a try only when he reaches the Saint level.
As for the third cosmic velocity, also known as the escape velocity, it refers to the minimum initial velocity required for an object launched from the Earth to break free from the gravitational pull of the sun and fly out of the solar system. This speed is 16.7 km/s.
Of course, this is just the minimum speed, the threshold. If you fly at this speed, starting from the earth, it will take a long time to leave the solar system.
