Chapter 317: Raising Thunder Beasts
"Why do you say that? Why do you say you are lucky? According to the surveillance footage of that day, the intensity of the thunder in your mining area was extremely strong and powerful, no different from other mining areas." The members of the investigation team asked in confusion.
"We are lucky because we didn't encounter the evolved Thunder Beasts. Although most people died from the power of thunder, most of the thunder was controlled by the Thunder Beasts. We didn't encounter any in our mining area. Isn't that good luck?"
"I can use the power of thunder to practice, which can reduce the power of thunder to a certain extent." Ning Xuan hid the dozen or so Thunder Beasts that had grown a lot bigger. She still needed to observe these creatures. If the people above knew that she had captured the Thunder Beasts alive, they would probably try every means to get rid of these creatures.
After this battle, Ning Xuan's position in the company became extremely stable. Anyone who dared to disobey Ning Xuan's orders would be regarded as an enemy by everyone.
This sentiment is called the cult of personality.
Among the dozen or so mining areas managed by this year's recruits, except for the ninth mining area where Ning Xuan was located, the death rate of recruits in other mining areas was around 30%. The top commanders of three mining areas died in the thunderstorm. The remaining nearly 2,000 people in the three mining areas were registered under Ning Xuan's name.
Ning Xuan's military rank was promoted from lieutenant to major, and the team under her command was reorganized into the D13 Regiment.
After seven days of rotation, Ning Xuan returned to the underground base, and the team she led will have ten days of rest.
Ning Xuan was promoted to the rank of major colonel, and her residence was upgraded from a rest cabin to a house building of about 60 to 70 square meters.
When Ning Xuan returned to her residence, she released a dozen thunder beasts from the space ring. This space ring was obtained from the new planet. Unlike the space button which could only store dead objects, this space ring could store living things.
The eleven thunder beasts instantly filled the entire house. Ning Xuan quickly stuffed ten of them back into the space ring, leaving only one outside.
The young Thunder Beast, which was originally only one meter long and shaped like a ferret, is now two meters tall. Its pure white fur is shining, and lightning can be faintly seen jumping on it.
When the Thunder Beast saw Ning Xuan raising her hand, it came over very intimately, and even stretched out its black tongue to lick Ning Xuan's hand.
Ning Xuan tentatively cut her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto its tongue. After a while, the Thunder Beast's appearance did not change at all, and there was no special telepathy between her and the Thunder Beast.
It seems that this Thunder Beast cannot sign any contract through blood. So, theoretically, Ning Xuan cannot establish further contact with this star beast. In other words, she cannot be sure whether the Thunder Beast is truly submissive and can be controlled by her.
After Ning Xuan came to this conclusion, for a moment she wanted to get rid of these star beasts or hand them over.
This species, which cannot be guaranteed to be completely controlled, is still a potential threat even if it appears to be submissive and affectionate now. After all, most of the soldiers who are killed or injured every year die from the attacks of thunder beasts.
However, since the space ring can store thunder beasts, she can still observe and see if these star beasts have any other use value.
In the days that followed, Ning Xuan refined the power of thunder in her meridians while healing her wounds. She also fed blood to the thunder beast used in the experiment at regular intervals and in fixed quantities.
After ten days of rest, Ning Xuan's blue meridians became tougher and stronger. In terms of meridian width, they were only slightly inferior to the red meridians.
She was soon thrown back into the battlefield. Each shift lasted seven days. After seven days, the legion was reorganized and entered a rest period.
After Ning Xuan had taken three shifts, during this round of rest, she discovered that the blue meridians in her body were surging with restlessness. The little red bird was becoming less and less willing to stay in Ning Xuan's body, and often flew out to go out and move around.
The assistant who was responsible for taking care of Ning Xuan's daily life was a little curious at first when he saw the little red bird. However, the assistant was very sensible and did not ask any extra questions.
Ning Xuan sat cross-legged in the middle of the quiet room, stroking the little red bird with her fingers, "Do you feel it? Your little friend should be able to condense into shape soon."
"Chirp, chirp." The little red bird chirped a few times with disdain. Ning Xuan seemed to read in its eyes that I allowed it to appear in this world only because of your face.
Ning Xuan smiled and touched the little red bird's head. She could feel that the wind and thunder power in her body was becoming increasingly difficult to control, churning restlessly deep in her blood.
"Here it comes again," she sighed softly, and saw the blue spiritual veins under her skin suddenly light up, and her entire arm turned a strange blue color, with faint flashes of lightning visible.
"Chirp--" A little red bird flew out from her hair and circled around her anxiously.
Ning Xuan looked up suddenly and found that an energy vortex had formed above her head and around her body in the room at some point.
Ning Xuan was surrounded by a dense electric net, her hair moved without wind, and the little red bird turned into a ball of fire and circled above her head.
A dragon-shaped shadow vaguely appeared behind her. Although it was blurry, the pair of vertical pupils with electric light were clearly visible.
"A dragon with wind and thunder attributes must be able to control the power of wind and thunder." Ning Xuan felt the overwhelming power in her body and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She placed many lightning energy stones around her body. She could feel that the dragon was taking shape in the blue meridian in her body. Its body was solidifying bit by bit, attracting the external lightning energy and the energy in the lightning energy stones into her body.
Ning Xuan slowly raised her arms, swirling energy jumped on her arms, and tiny lightning snakes coiled around her fingertips.
The blue light on Ning Xuan's right arm surged, and fine dragon scale patterns began to appear on the surface of her skin.
However, the thunder energy obviously lacks stamina, and the condensation of the companion spirit requires more thunder energy.
The lightning energy stone is gone, where can I find lightning energy? Is it possible that this companion spirit cannot condense into shape today?
Ning Xuan was feeling worried, and suddenly thought of the Thunder Beasts. These Thunder Beasts can absorb thunder energy. She wondered if she could extract the thunder energy from its body?
Ning Xuan immediately released the Thunder Beast that had been fed her blood from the space ring. The black vines pierced into the body of the Thunder Beast, drawing out the thunder energy and pouring it into her body.
The Thunder Beast struggled violently, with fierce light bursting out of its eyes, but it was bound by the black vines and could not break free. Just as the Thunder Beast shrank to its original size, Ning Xuan put it into the space ring and replaced it with another one. The Thunder Beast that had not been fed blood could also draw out thunder energy. When the tenth Thunder Beast was drawn, the shadow behind Ning Xuan finally solidified.
