Old Nitto Supply Zone, home of the Death Star's Third Chapter.
Six o'clock in the morning.
Feng Qi, who had woken up early in the morning, left the house wearing thin training clothes.
Walk towards the open-air training ground in the resident manor.
Passing by an orchard along the way, he picked a few fruits to satisfy his hunger.
More than ten minutes later, he arrived at the open-air training ground at the rear left of the station manor.
This training ground is bigger than a football field.
The training field is divided into three areas. On the left is the equipment training field, which is neatly placed with various training equipment, used for training in strength, body coordination, speed, etc.
The field on the right is a weapons training field.
There are three types of weapons: blunt weapons, sharp weapons, and concealed weapons.
There is also a row of targets at the front for testing the accuracy of spells.
The middle field is an actual combat training ground. The ground is covered with a thick layer of soft sand and is used for competition among the stationed soldiers.
Although the open-air training ground in the station manor is not as comprehensive as the indoor training ground, it is also one of the most important areas in the Death Star manor.
At this time, Feng Qi trotted to the equipment training venue and started physical adaptability training.
Especially the training of the bloody left arm.
This new left arm has been integrated with the body, but it does not fit well with the Demonic Dragon Rune Crystal.
In order to better integrate this arm with the rune crystal, he now needs to perform high-intensity training on his left arm every day just like he did before at the Scarlet Academy.
But he must admit that the left arm built for him by the Lord of Mist is stronger than his previous left arm.
Moreover, the Lord of Mist also condensed a blood core in this arm, giving him the ability to absorb energy and blood.
It’s just that the conversion efficiency of Qi and blood is not high.
The absorption efficiency is about 1%-%, but this new arm has really enhanced his physical fitness.
After a brief warm-up, Feng Qi raised his bloody left arm and grabbed the empty space between the barrels placed not far away.
Immediately, the blood of the domain creature in the barrel was pulled by the "blood core" in the blood-colored arm and suspended in the air. During this period, it continued to surge and change forms.
When he waved again, blood immediately surged toward him, finally hovering in his palm.
But Feng Qi did not absorb the blood, but controlled the blood to return to the barrel.
This is also one of his exercises these days.
Being proficient in blood control may have unexpected effects when fighting enemies.
For example, if the opponent is condensing a spell and suddenly controls the blood flow in the opponent's body to speed up, it is very likely to interrupt the formation of the opponent's spell trajectory.
The Lord of Mists has taught him many blood control techniques in the past few days.
It benefited him a lot.
But his blood control intensity is clearly incomparable to that of the Lord of Mist. The gap is not even a tiny bit.
After several hours of high-intensity exercise, Feng Qi was sweating profusely.
He turned over from the handstand position supported by his index finger and walked straight to the residential area.
After returning to the room to wash up, he changed a set of clothes and went to the group leader's office.
When he opened the door, he saw the Lord of Mist pointing at the tablet with a serious expression.
He went straight to the desk and sat down. He made himself a cup of tea, then smiled and said:
"What happened? What big thing did that guy named Mu Qing do again?"
"The Dawn Chapter she established has been promoted to an A-level war group, and is only one step away from being an S-level war group... After reading the detailed mission records of several recent joint operations she launched, how do I feel about her relationship?
The gap in strength is getting wider and wider.”
Realizing that the Lord of Mist was indeed worried about Mu Qing's growth, he grinned:
"So what do you care about her? Can her growth potential be greater than yours?"
Hearing these words, the Lord of Mist couldn't help but raise his head and glare:
"Why do I feel that your tone is a bit gloating?"
"It's nothing, don't think about it, I'm just curious why you pay so much attention to her?"
"I don't want to pay attention to her either, but lately she's been all over the news, and she's often on the frontline news headlines. It's hard not to see her... Damn it, she gets upset after seeing it too much."
After drinking all the tea in the cup, he smiled and said:
"Old fan, tell me in detail your evaluation of her."
"Excellent physical fitness, conditioned reflex-like combat insight, and the jade-colored aura flowing on the surface of the body are almost indestructible..."
While speaking, Mu Qing's appearance could not help but appear in the Mist Lord's mind.
Especially when Mu Qing entered a violent state and a mysterious beast appeared behind her, his expression became extremely solemn.
At that time, when he was standing in front of Mu Qing, he even vaguely felt that the person standing in front of him was not a human being, but a super ferocious beast with demonic flames surging into the sky. The aura of the world overwhelmed him and made him breathless.
Feng Qi listened very carefully to what the Lord of the Mist said.
The origin of the rune crystal on Mu Qing's body was still a mystery. He wanted to learn some information about this from the Lord of the Mist.
But obviously the Lord of the Mists didn't know.
During this period, the Lord of Mist gave an example of how he felt when facing Mu Qing.
Just like an ordinary person encountering a hungry tiger, his heart can't stop palpitating and trembling after his eyes meet.
This is one of the reasons why Mu Qing, the Lord of the Mist, was so impressed.
"I don't know how such a monster was born among humans. I even suspect that it has a miraculous item on it."
As he spoke, the Lord of Mist couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing these words, Feng Qi nodded in his heart.
Miracle items come in different shapes, and they can all look like rune crystals.
In addition, there is another point that can confirm this speculation.
The Lord of the Mist had previously given a guess about the origin of miraculous items, saying that miraculous items may have evolved from the original power of the Pillar God.
He did not know the authenticity of this speculation.
If this guess is true, can we guess that the scarlet rune crystal on Mu Qing's body is most likely the crystallization of the original power of the Pillar God?
The phantom of the ferocious beast that appears behind Mu Qing in the Lord of Mist's description is most likely the image of a pillar god-level super being who has been dead for an unknown number of years.
But this is just a guess he compiled based on the existing information and cannot be taken as true.
The exact truth about his sacrifice line is obviously impossible to know.
Life is short, and all he can do is follow the established destiny line and create value within a limited time.
There are many unknown truths, and it takes another person to find the answers.
After thinking for a moment, he looked up at the green bracelet worn by the Lord of Mist on his right wrist:
"By the way, what exactly is the function of this miracle bracelet? Have you studied the way out?"
Facing his inquiry, the Lord of Mist immediately shook his head:
"I've been exploring it for the past few days, but I'm still confused about how to use it. There's nothing strange about this miraculous item in its unactivated state, and I can't activate it with any energy I put into it."
"Did we make a mistake? It's not a miracle item?"
"I'm not wrong. The power of the humanoid leader to summon phantoms came from this bracelet. Now I have a rough guess... The phantom behind the humanoid leader at that time looked very similar to the humanoids. The rest
The tribesmen all knelt down and worshiped when they saw the shadow, so I suspect that this bracelet can summon the power of the ancestors."
Looking at the solemn Lord of the Mist, Feng Qi couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"Summon the power of ancestors? Dead ancestors?"
The Lord of Mist glared at this moment and said:
"The ability of miraculous items cannot be inferred using the existing cultivation system. Any effect that you think is unreasonable can be the ability of miraculous items."
"Not to mention gaining the power of dead ancestors, I also know that there is a miraculous item that can summon the consciousness of ancient ancestors who have been dead for countless years, which is what humans call souls."
"These miraculous items are really outrageous." After hearing these words, Feng Qi nodded.
If you think about it carefully, it is exactly what the Lord of the Mist said.
It's not like he has never seen miraculous items with outrageous effects.
Among the miraculous items currently known, Xiao Hei is undoubtedly the most outrageous.
In addition, Qin's "deduction fragments" from the fusion of time and space are also outrageous, allowing him to deduce other people's fates and predict parts of the future.
Compared with the first two, summoning the power of dead ancestors to bless oneself is not particularly outrageous.
As the chat continued, a video invitation call box popped up on the tablet in the Lord of Mist's hand.
Seeing the video invitation box, the Lord of Mist immediately gave Feng Qi a look.
Feng Qi understood the idea and decisively kept silent.
The Mist Lord pressed "Accept" at this time.
A bald man suddenly appeared on the tablet in his hand, and he said respectfully:
"Captain Wang Yi, I am a representative of the Science and Technology Research Institute, and I am here to invite you to participate in the upcoming Science and Technology Research Institute exchange meeting."
Facing the invitation, the Lord of Mist nodded expressionlessly:
"I see."
After saying that, he hung up the video communication.
"What's wrong? The shadow forces behind the Science and Technology Research Institute want to have a meeting with you?"
"Yes, I am now one of the core members of this organization. It is normal to have a meeting with me after such a long time. It is also good to go and get some information."
"Go, remember to be safe, don't die."
"I look so weak..." The Lord of Mist couldn't help but roll his eyes, but then he saw Feng Qi's red left arm, and he suddenly stopped talking.
Feng Qi saved him three times. Except for Xue Lin when he first met him, Feng Qi risked his life to fight for him the other two times.
These words came out of Feng Qi's mouth and were not inconsistent with peace.
Seeing the guilt in the Lord of Mist's heart, he stood up and patted the Lord of Mist on the shoulder, smiled and said:
"Remember your promise, there will be a place for me when you stand at the top in the future. I will leave first."
The Lord of the Mist heard this and did not answer. He looked at Feng Qi's back and nodded solemnly as he turned away.
…
The next day, late at night.
The Lord of the Mist left the residence of the Third Death Star Chapter and boarded a plane to the future city.
For the next half month, the Lord of Mist did not return.
He also has no connection with Feng Qi.
During this period, Feng Qi was fully responsible for all affairs of the war group.
In addition to dealing with group affairs, Feng Qi spends the rest of his time on physical fitness training.
The fit between the bloody left arm and the Demonic Dragon Rune Crystal has also been continuously improved during training.
In addition to being less coordinated than the right arm, this left arm is now stronger than the right arm in terms of recovery ability and ability to resist blows.
Especially the explosive power of the left arm is more than three times stronger than the right arm.
This morning.
After the exercise, Feng Qi came to the team leader's office early.
First he made a pot of tea as usual, then he picked up the latest information placed on his desk and started to look at it.
At this moment, the door was pushed straight open, and a familiar figure wearing a black backpack and a mask appeared.
"You're back?" Seeing the familiar figure, Feng Qi put down the documents in his hand.
The Lord of Mist took off his mask at this time, closed the door and went straight to the desk to sit down, and then said with a solemn expression:
"Guess what I discovered at this meeting at the Institute of Science and Technology?"
"Don't guess, just tell me." Feng Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Hearing these words, the Lord of Mist suddenly felt bored, but he continued to speak:
"At this core meeting, the shadow forces behind the Science and Technology Research Institute asked me to participate in an ongoing plan called the [Black Death Project]. In the following days, 90% of the resources of the Science and Technology Research Institute will be invested in this plan.
China will speed up the development of this plan."
"I don't understand, what do you mean?"
"I don't know the specifics. In short, this plan is composed of countless small plans, such as the eternal plan, the psychic nanoworm plan, etc. In short, it is a combination of a bunch of plans to form this big plan."
"As for what the goal of this plan is, Black Shadow did not tell me in detail. He just told me that I will be responsible for the small plan of resource acquisition in the Black Death Plan. Simply put, I will be responsible for earning spiritual resources for this big plan.
"
After hearing the explanation from the Lord of Mist, Feng Qi's heart sank.
If he guessed correctly, this plan was obviously a plan to create Xiao Hei.
From the information given by Mo Fei, he thought that the plan to create Xiao Hei was called "Psychic Nanobug Project".
When he entered the second echelon of the core circle at the Sacrifice Line, he also thought that the plan to create Xiao Hei was the psychic nanoworm plan.
But the Lord of the Mist is in the first echelon, and he obviously has access to more information.
This was the first time he heard about the "Black Death Project".
If the psychic nanoworms were only part of this plan, he was basically certain that the "Black Death" was referring to his old acquaintance from 1500 years later: Xiao Hei.
At this time, the Lord of Mist interrupted his thinking.
"This plan is obviously abnormal. The black shadow forces actually want to use 90% of the resources of the Science and Technology Research Institute, and also increase the acquisition of external resources to promote this plan. Now I am very curious about the purpose of this plan?"
"What's the use of being curious? In the eyes of the black shadow, you are just a worker. You have no access to the core content of scientific research."
"So I'm thinking, should we train a scientific research talent to penetrate into the core circle of scientific research to understand the secrets of this Black Death Project?"
Looking at the stern Lord of Mist, Feng Qi was stunned.
He found that the timeline was corrected again.
At first, he thought that Hupo Research Institute had discovered the secret of the Science and Technology Research Institute, so he sent people to infiltrate the Science and Technology Research Institute.
When he was at the sacrifice line, he blocked the gun with a spy from the Tiger Academy.
But I didn't expect that the Lord of Mist had such an idea before he infiltrated the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
"What do you think? If this plan is profitable, we may be able to plan the layout in advance, and then we can seize it after their research is successful..."
After hearing the Lord of Mist's idea, Feng Qi couldn't help but nod.
But what the Lord of the Mist said next made him widen his eyes.
"The shadow forces behind the Science and Technology Research Institute are really smart. They actually infiltrated a human research institute to serve themselves. Maybe we can also learn to try it?" (To be continued)
