Chapter 212: Thunder Tiger
It was indeed unexpected to find such an "artificial magic crystal" cabin in a sealed laboratory underground.
After studying for a long time, Tust came to a conclusion: these "artificial magic crystals" might really be the energy used by the ancient goblins.
For example, the legendary "magic cannon", the energy supply of the previous "elevator", and even the high-precision equipment in the entire ruins.
The old man had already discovered that many instruments lacked key energy supply equipment. Now it seems that it was not the lack of energy, but that he did not understand the special energy supply principles. Now that he saw the "energy", many designs became clear.
At present, those "artificial magic crystals" are a more stable and advanced energy source than "steam kinetic energy". They can be used in some small high-precision instruments. But if they are used in the mechanical city, not to mention using gold as bricks, the energy they provide is far from enough. The cost is countless times higher. Probably they can only be used as a supplementary energy source for the "steam engine" that cannot meet the needs.
The key point is that in this closed laboratory, the instrument that produces the "Abyss Demonic Energy" can be disassembled!
This means that Ryan and his companions will now have an unlimited source of magic energy, a place for cultivation, and an artificial magic crystal factory.
But before they have a proper placement plan, they have no plans to move these instruments. Placing them underground seems to be the best option.
As for what is in that tin can ?
Although Ryan was curious, as long as he was not crazy, he would never do such a stupid thing as opening the can to check.
Not to mention that such sophisticated goblin equipment cannot be restored once opened, the unknown risks are something no one can afford.
If you think with your toes, this thing can provide the same function as a "nuclear reactor", and the things inside are definitely no less dangerous than radioactive materials.
Besides, this equipment has been running for tens of thousands of years, very stable. Wouldn't it be better to use it for cultivation? Why would you open it to commit suicide?
…
There are still some unknown areas in this goblin ruins, but Ryan did not continue to participate in the exploration.
Both Tust and Ymir felt that the most urgent thing for him to do was to write down the goblin technology documents he had memorized as soon as possible. The "city lord" didn't need to worry about collecting the spoils and other miscellaneous matters.
Anyway, if there is anything good, Ymir will think of it for him.
Then, Ryan did n't go anywhere but stayed in the "artificial magic crystal" laboratory, set up tables and chairs, and then started copying books from a thick pile of white paper.
This is a very time-consuming job. Not only does it involve copying texts, but also thousands of professional books and various highly precise goblin technology drawings, which require a lot of effort to copy carefully.
But anyway, I have the [Thunder Totem], so I can become stronger just by standing and breathing.
Ryan also planned to use this "demon energy from the abyss" which was seven or eight times denser than the energy outside, to cultivate his fighting spirit to the third level while copying the books.
It just so happened that Basel said that he had fought a fierce battle with the legendary skeleton before and had some understanding of the higher laws, so he stayed with him.
Several days passed in a flash.
Ymir said goodbye. She was going back to Black Dragon City to preside over the urban construction work, and then she would arrange people to come here to open mines and build.
Old Master Tuster stayed behind to study and tinker with the machines left behind in the goblin city. But the old man was already obsessed with goblin technology, and except for occasionally coming to see Ryan's progress in copying books, he seldom came down.
Ryan and Bazel took root in this laboratory.
…
There is no time limit for practice, time passes by in a flash.
Finally, two months later.
Because of the extremely rich "Abyss Demonic Energy" in this laboratory, Ryan reached the level of overflowing second-level fighting spirit.
Because of the blood nematodes, his meridians can withstand almost unlimited fighting spirit.
But after some attempts, Ryan also found that after his fighting spirit reached a limit of a little more than twice the original estimate, it would not increase no matter how much he absorbed.
But this was already an unexpected surprise.
If he considered the amount of Dou Qi he had gained from his first-level extraordinary advancement to the second-level as 100 units, then the normal second-level overflow state after taking the [Life Tamperer] gold potion should be around 500 units. And because he was a "Qigong Master" with the "Thunder Breathing", his Dou Qi would be more vigorous, but no matter how talented he was, it would not exceed 700 units.
But now that he is full of fighting spirit, he has more than 1,500 units. (Ordinary black iron and silver are about 200-300, and gold is 500.)
This amount of fighting spirit can definitely crush any extraordinary person of the same level.
Moreover, once you take the genetic potion to break through the third gene chain, your fighting spirit will surge three to five times, and the difference in quantity will snowball!
Moreover, at the first stage, 100 units just condensed into ten lines of energy.
Originally, he estimated that when the second-level fighting spirit was full, the fighting spirit could reach 150... But in fact, he found that the more the number of lines, the greater the base of fighting spirit needed to condense new lines. Up to now, there are only about 80 lines, only half of the expected number.
This is already an unexpected surprise. Under normal circumstances, forty items would be good.
With so many lines of energy, as long as Ryan doesn't get punched in the head, the chances of him dying from ordinary injuries are extremely low...
…
After the fighting spirit is overflowing, it is natural to advance.
But the advancement to the third level of transcendence is different from the second level. In addition to genetic potions and overflowing fighting spirit, there is also a big threshold.
On this day, Ryan took out the third-level thunder-type "Thunder Tiger Magic Core" that he had prepared long ago and prepared to absorb it, intending to take the law of thunder-type fighting spirit to a higher level.
In order to prevent failure, two magic cores were specially prepared.
This magic core was a personal treasure that Ymir brought out from the Royal Treasury of Omar. It was extremely rare. Knowing that Ryan had advanced to the Lightning Element, she generously gave it to him.
Thunder-type magical beasts are rare in themselves, let alone a third-level "Thunder Tiger" which has a pure understanding of the thunder principle and a domineering aura.
This was the choice that the extraordinary predecessors in Marfa had advised Ryan on, in order to better suit his extraordinary path in the power department.
This pair of top-grade magic cores is hard to find in the two great empires of Omahid.
…
There were only two people in the laboratory. Apart from the strange instrument that was still emitting black gas and making subtle noises, the room was extremely quiet. With Bazel here, there was no need to worry about unexpected accidents. This was a very suitable environment for cultivation.
"call……"
Everything was ready. Ryan exhaled slowly, held the "Thunder Tiger Magic Crystal" in his palm, and then began to meditate with his eyes closed.
The purple fighting spirit behind him was like a flame, blazing out and reaching three feet high.
As time went by, the layer of Dou Qi that was swaying like a veil, as if controlled by an invisible force, slowly condensed into the shape of a tiger, first the tiger's head, tiger's body, tiger's tail... then the fierce facial features of the Thunder Tiger...
However, for unknown reasons, the fierce tiger condensed by Dou Qi always had a shape but no spirit, like a cat but not a tiger. After condensing for several times, it never took shape and disintegrated...
Bazel, who was meditating not far away, sensed something and opened his eyes to take a look.
Then he shook his head slightly and sighed, ignored it, and closed his eyes to meditate again.
…
There are many big guys around Ryan, and they have all kinds of connections.
But they all said that the third level of transcendence was a huge threshold.
After the second level of extraordinary fighting spirit is fully overflowing, there are two ways to advance to the third level of extraordinary.
The first is to take the gene potion directly. As long as the compatibility is high enough, the possibility of advancement is very high. But in that case, it is almost impossible to become a top master, and the chance of advancing to the fourth level is slim.
The combat effectiveness is also far behind the second method!
The second way to advance is to not only make the fighting spirit overflow, but also to condense the scattered fighting spirit of the extraordinary person into the "momentum" of one's own spirit, so that the fighting spirit has its own soul.
The best and most direct method is to visualize the magic core used and comprehend the "magic beast power" of the magic beast.
For example, for the "Thunder Tiger Demon Core" that Ryan advanced to, he didn't need to comprehend anything else. He only needed to comprehend the domineering and ferocious force until the fighting spirit could be gathered into the shape of a thunder tiger, and then he could successfully advance.
Then the fighting spirit will have a "soul", and his body will also get some ability feedback from the Thunder Tiger to the greatest extent possible. After the advancement, the person has the momentum of a fierce tiger, his fists and feet have the power of a thunder tiger, and his combat power soars.
…
Ryan naturally didn't want to stop at the third level of transcendence, he wanted to see the scenery at a higher level. Therefore, he carefully wanted to condense his fighting spirit.
Formulas, secrets, insights...
The most suitable magic core and the most fighting spirit.
Ryan has almost perfect conditions for advancement.
This meditation took the entire night.
But he didn't expect that until the energy of the "Thunder Tiger Magic Core" in his hand was completely consumed, the "Thunder Tiger Power" that he had condensed seven or eight times still dissipated!
…
"Failed?"
When he opened his eyes again, Ryan looked at the "Thunder Tiger Magic Core" in his hand, which had turned into a transparent crystal core, in disbelief.
Such a high-quality magic core, but I failed to comprehend it?
He recalled the entire process, almost all of which was based on the advice of the big guys, so why did it fail?
He knew very well that he had plenty of Dou Qi, many times more than his peers. However, the "Thunder Tiger Force" condensed by the Purple Thunder Dou Qi was like a sick cat, disintegrating before it could even take shape.
Why on earth is this happening?!
After thinking hard for a long time, Ryan still couldn't figure it out. Fortunately, there was a "legendary" Basel in the room.
He frowned and asked solemnly, "Excuse me, Senior Bazel. Can I ask you a question... Why did I fail to condense the 'Thunder Tiger Force'?"
