Looking at the crystal fragments the size of rice grains on the table, Qin Lun's eyes flashed. He really didn't expect that old Goblin would back down so easily. However, the old guy is so confident in these crystal fragments that he is not worried that he will continue to entangle himself
Full of curiosity, Qin Lun reached out to pick up a crystal, but just as his fingers touched the crystal fragments, the skull pattern dormant in the palm of his right hand responded again.
After the skull pattern digested the cool breath last night, the original rhythmic pulsation gradually weakened until it disappeared. No matter how Qin Lun tried, the weird simple computer never appeared in the depths of his consciousness.
And now, after Qin Lun pinched the crystal fragments, two scarlet flames appeared again in the skull-patterned eye sockets, pulsating slowly. With this imperceptible pulsation from the outside world, a suction force was generated in the skull pattern, as if a baby grabbed the pacifier and automatically sucked up the orange-yellow crystal fragment.
A faint cool breath poured into the small skull along Qin Lun's fingers, and the crystal fragments shrunk at a speed visible to the naked eye, and disappeared under the noses of Old Goblin and Qin Lun.
"This is... the magic jelly bean?" Qin Lun blinked his eyes, not at all embarrassed by his greedy behavior. Instead, he reached out again and picked up another orange crystal, watching it slow down. Slowly disappears at the fingertips.
"You, you, this pattern... the official apostle?!" Old Goblin turned a deaf ear to Qin Lun's witticism, lost his composure for the first time, spoke incoherently, stared at Qin Lun's palm with protruding eyes, the skull pattern with only one corner exposed.
It wasn't until the third crystal shard disappeared from Qin Lun's fingertips that he came back to his senses and angrily grabbed the other crystal shards on the table.
"What magic jelly bean, this is a soul spar!"
The Elder Goblin looked at Qin Lun with a complicated expression, "The pattern on your hand is not a tattoo, it only appeared after entering the Broken Starry Sky, right? Do you want to know what it is?"
"What is this?" Qin Lun slowly put away his smile, and sat upright on the chair. Although he doesn't know the world, he also knows that when asking for advice from others, he needs to be modest and respectful.
"This is not a secret. Someone will tell you when you arrive in the floating city!" Old Goblin sighed, with a dazed look on his face, as if he was immersed in a long memory.
When all apostles enter the broken starry sky for the first time, they will come into contact with broken law crystals in the space-time tunnel, and some lucky apostles will directly get a relatively complete law crystal, or an item fused with a complete law crystal.
This kind of probability is generally only one in a thousand. One of the reasons is that there are very few complete law crystals in the space-time tunnel. The other reason is that the apostles did not know the preciousness of this law crystal at the beginning, and they would not go out to find fusion crystals. Items with full Law Crystals. And the law crystals in those items can only last for two or three minutes, and then they will dissipate directly. When the apostles understand all this, the treasures have become garbage.
The pattern on Qin Lun's hand is called the soul imprint, which is formed by law crystals integrated into the body of the law, or items containing law crystals.
The soul imprint is the watershed between the preparatory apostle and the official apostle. Generally, only after the preparatory apostle has gone through the first trip to the foreign world and completed the necessary tasks in the foreign world can he obtain a complete law crystal and integrate it into the body.
For an apostle, the role of the soul imprint is irreplaceable. Through the soul imprint, the apostles can monitor the condition of the law's body at any time, store a lot of spiritual equipment, and acquire various combat skills and bloodline abilities.
It can be said that the soul imprint is the apostle's second soul and talisman, so it is called the soul imprint. An apostle can only have one soul imprint, and other law crystals obtained in the future can only be used to strengthen the original soul imprint. The soul mark is the true embodiment of the apostle's will, no matter what kind of law crystals are fused, there is only one form of expression.
"The soul imprint is like a newborn baby at the beginning, it is very weak. Only by slowly feeding the soul spar, can it gradually mature and be controlled by the apostle." The elder goblin glanced at Qin Lun , and said angrily, "Now you know how precious the soul spar is! Return the magic jelly bean... hum!"
"Hehe!" Qin Lun touched his nose with a smile, without any embarrassment on his face, "So if there is no soul spar, the soul imprint will have no effect?"
"No, without the soul spar, the soul imprint will grow, but it will directly absorb the vitality of the apostle. And the mature soul imprint will also consume a small amount of the apostle's vitality." The old goblin grinned and said. .
"However, none of the apostles would care about this consumption. As long as they can safely pass through the alien mission, they will get a lot of spar. If they die in the mission, then the consumption of the soul mark is nothing."
"Well then, I'm very satisfied with the compensation of the soul spar, a hundred or so is enough!" Qin Lun finally let go, showing a bright smile.
"One hundred pills?" The elder goblin's cloudy eyes widened and his head shook like a rattle. "This is impossible. You have absorbed three pills just now, and I will give you seven more at most!"
"Not negotiable?"
"Not negotiable!"
Qin Lun slowly narrowed his eyes, and the red light in his eyes flashed away. Old brother Brin didn't back down this time, and looked at the murderer expressionlessly.
"There are more than a thousand zombies in the base, and I only need a hundred soul spars, which is not too much!" Qin Lun suddenly grinned, "If other people know the value of this soul spar, I think they must I will come to you again. At that time, it will not be easy to send a hundred pills!"
Old Goblin's face finally changed drastically, he opened his eyes suddenly, stood up tremblingly for the first time from the couch, the fat on his face twisted into a ball, leaned in front of Qin Lun, and growled in a low voice: "You How do you know?"
Qin Lun smiled without saying a word, but felt a little emotional in his heart. Old Goblin's reaction completely confirmed his guess.
The zombies in the base are not intelligent, nor have they been infected with any virus, all the prisoners know this, otherwise, they would have died long ago. So what do zombies who have lost their souls rely on to support their biological instincts? This question has never been answered.
In fact, Qin Lun was suspicious of the reaction of the Lulu tribe when they first met Gerde and his gang of bikers when they saw the zombies. However, since Gerd quickly took them away from the scene, he could only bury his doubts in his heart.
When Qin Lun picked up the soul power spar just now, he discovered that the cool breath produced by the soul power spar was exactly the same as the cool breath he got when he killed Chekhov. This has to make Qin Lun suspect that the so-called soul power spar is the product of the combination of law crystal fragments and human body.
In other words, when he killed Chekhov, the law crystal fused on the big Russian man just turned into a cool breath, and he hadn't completely absorbed it yet. As a result, the soul imprint fused by Qin Lun forcefully sucked out Chekov's body.
Under many chances and coincidences, if Qin Lun can't connect the soul spar with the zombie, then he really has a good brain for nothing. However, there was no need to confess these things to the old goblin.
Since the soul power spar is really powerful, he had no choice but to give up the good opportunity to appreciate the old guy's performance, and try to get more spar.
The old goblin's face was unpredictable, but he still waved his hand to repel the two goblin guards who wanted to attack Qin Lun. After a long while, the elder goblin's expression slowly returned to calm, he leaned back on the couch, and casually threw the small cloth bag containing the soul spar on the table.
"Soul power spar is the crystallization of law crystals and various intelligent life forms. If intelligent life forms lose their souls during the time-space transmission, then with the support of these crystallizations, they will become temporary zombies until the crystallization in the body is exhausted. stone."
As the old goblin spoke again, the expression on his face became softer and softer, and finally his eyes lit up, and he looked at Qin Lun with a smile.
"There are many types of soul power crystals, and they are consumed very quickly in the human body. More than a thousand zombies can produce about 600 soul power crystals. Including the three you just absorbed, there are a total of 100 soul power crystals in this bag. Fifty-six soul spars are all that Gerde has obtained from the Lulu tribe so far, and I can give them all to you, as long as you promise me one condition."
Qin Lun frowned slightly, but he didn't reach for the small cloth bag of the soul spar. He raised his head and asked cautiously, "You talk about the conditions first!"
"Hey, young people nowadays don't respect the old and love the young at all, and the old man won't let you suffer!" The elder goblin slowly waved to the two goblin guards behind him, "Go, put Didi is here!"
Soon, the goblin guards appeared in the tent with a little goblin. This was a thin, slender goblin boy with fluff on his long pointed ears. Goblin's eyes are big in themselves, and this little goblin's eyes are even more incomparably huge, as bright as emeralds in the blink of an eye.
"Didi is Gerde's youngest child and my grandson. He is six years old this year. By human standards, he happens to be a big boy who is about to grow up. He liked to listen to my adventure stories since he was a child, and he was determined to get out of the Red Gobi, go to See the world!" Old Goblin lovingly touched Didi's little head, "I'll give him to you..."
"Wait, I don't know how to take care of children!" Qin Lun interrupted Old Goblin expressionlessly.
"It's okay, Didi will take care of herself!"
"I'm dangerous and he's not safe around me!"
"Life and death are life and death! After leaving this tent, Didi will be your servant. Even if you kill him immediately, the Lulu tribe will have no complaints!" Old Goblin smiled and pushed Budai and Didi to Qin Lun before.
"Now, they're all yours!"
