The energy stone turned out to be the star core!
Xu Sili looked at the information he had just found, his beautiful purple eyes lit up slightly with a faint smile.
It's not that he hasn't seen the post about Star Core before, but he has never understood what Star Core is. He just thought it was an ordinary material.
I just accidentally got a little curious and searched for what the star core is, and it turned out to be an unexpected discovery.
The star core, which is somewhat similar to the inner alchemy of beasts, is produced in the wild with star beasts, and is divided according to the level of the star beasts.
To upgrade to the third-level main city, you need a third-level energy stone, which is the star core of a three-star beast!
Such a popular setting, he did not expect it before.
After all, the player's main task is to level the interstellar beast. In addition to the main task, there must be something in the interstellar beast that attracts players. This is a very good reasoning.
This star core is a very important material.
It can be used for equipment manufacturing, upgrade the main city, activate the operation of the maintenance array, and even be one of the important materials for manufacturing warships and spaceships.
In the later stage, players entered the universe starry sky and began to contact the mecha, and the star core has also become a very rare mecha making material and energy stone.
In the beginning, the Roland Empire accumulated a little primitive wealth by selling star cores, and after the rapid development, it was no longer sold as a strategic resource reserve.
In short, the star core has many uses!
And now, no one in the Roland Empire knows this, because its role was discovered by players after the public beta.
Xu Sili had to admire the imagination of the players.
Of course, it may also be that this setting itself refers to some games or novels in the past, so players can easily think of it.
After knowing this information, Xu Sili hurriedly closed the post, and then turned it over in the treasury panel - since the faction warehouse was opened, he can view all the properties he currently owns in the panel, which is very convenient.
After browsing from the beginning, Xu Sili blinked.
No
He rummaged through the entire treasury, but found no trace of star cores.
He was stunned for a while, but soon understood again.
The role of the star core has not yet been discovered. The animal meat and bones of the interstellar beast are precious, and even the fur is a very rare material, but the star core...
I guess it was treated as garbage.
Thinking of this, Xu Sili couldn't help but feel pain.
Nearly a hundred years after the natural disaster, how many interstellar beasts have to be killed
Not even a single star core was left...
Xu Sili didn't dare to think about it anymore, and turned his head to send a message to Wen Jishan, asking him to issue an order. In the future, all interstellar beasts must dig out the star core and hand it over to the country.
It takes time for the policy to be released, so he sent another task on the mercenary platform to acquire the star core.
One star core 100 points, two star core 1000 points, three star core 10000 points…
Increment this.
This price is a little high at present. After all, it was treated as garbage in the past, and suddenly someone bought it at a high price. No matter how you think about it, there is a problem.
However, Xu Sili also has his own persistence.
He still admires and is soft-hearted towards these mercenaries who lick their blood, so he doesn't cheat them.
Of course, if someone deliberately does not sell and wants to raise the price, then let them rot in their hands. Anyway, when the policy is implemented, the army and players will continue to provide him with star cores.
The place of purchase is the headquarters of the Mercenary Association. There is a robot to help him receive the goods, so don't worry about this.
After releasing the task, Xu Sili took another look at the elite task of life occupation.
Among the 38 players left, only 24 have reached level 5, among which there are about five or six wood elementalists and fire elementalists.
Xu Sili is not too greedy. He absorbs these people first and helps him make the first batch of blood medicine.
With this batch of blood medicine, whether it is a soldier on the front line or an escort team going deep into the mountains, the probability of surviving will be greatly increased.
As for his new blue medicine formula...
Xu Sili hesitated for a while, but still sent a copy to Su Lin.
Although this kid is not an NPC with special talents, he has already surprised him twice, the first time is Xuegu, and the second time is blood medicine.
He has the energy to study, and maybe all these research and development things can be left to him.
but…
Thinking of what he saw just now, the haggard appearance of the three children, especially Su Lin, whose face was so thin that there was no flesh on his face, Xu Sili couldn't help feeling a little unbearable.
They're still sixteen or seventeen year olds...
He thought about putting down the milk tea in his hand and said, "Si Sheng, let's go."
Si Sheng got up and followed behind him, watching the young man walk slowly on the street, walking in the same direction as when he was coming and going. He didn't ask any more questions, just followed silently.
Xu Sili did not return to the cabin.
He stopped in a wood behind the hut. The weather gradually turned cooler, but the trees were still green. It was estimated that it would take a while before they were dyed with a withered yellow color.
The environment here is very good.
Xu Sili took a deep breath and extended his mental power.
Now at level 19, his mental power can detect fifty meters away, and Su Lin's cabin is just within his detection range.
Every time he used his mental power to detect, Xu Sili felt that it was very strange. After penetrating the wooden board, the scene in the small wooden house loomed in his mind.
The details are not particularly clear, but he actually "sees" Su Lin and the others.
Seeing them earnestly making the potion, Xu Sili smiled slightly, and while his mind moved, a leader skill that he had never used before was used by him.
[Pointing]
Description: You will be able to designate a person to strengthen one of their attributes in a short period of time, and the strengthening lasts for 10 minutes.
Special effect: Ignore the level gap
Mana cost: 500
He appointed Su Lin, strengthened his intelligence and spirit, and then looked at it with insight, and found that...
Su Lin's intellectual and spiritual attributes were directly increased tenfold.
Xu Sili was speechless.
This enhancement is too powerful!
He couldn't help but glance at Si Sheng, thinking in his heart, if he used this skill on Si Sheng, wouldn't he be invincible
Even if it's only ten minutes, it's still awesome!
No, it's not just awesome, it's amazing.
After all, Si Sheng now has more than one million blood, and strengthening his physique tenfold, isn't it more than ten million blood
So terrifying.
Xu Sili was shocked by his own idea, but... it is indeed feasible.
If the original Sinuo Roland did not cooperate with the enemy and was not killed, in fact, relying on the two leadership skills of insight and pointing, with the assistance of Si Sheng, and the fourth natural disaster in the later stage, the player can really be said to be strong. Invincible!
The game team put a lot of thought into his role, but unfortunately...
Xu Sili shook his head and continued to focus on the three of Su Lin.
Su Lin was looking at the communicator, perhaps checking the recipe he just sent.
With the blessing of his skills, it was obvious that Su Lin's expression suddenly changed. Then he took out a pen and paper and copied down the formula.
Intellectual and spiritual attributes can improve thinking ability and make the brain clearer. Xu Sili has a deep understanding of this.
Lasting 10 minutes, I don't know what kind of inspiration it can bring to Su Lin.
Xu Sili didn't care much, and what he could gain was entirely up to Su Lin's own good fortune.
He retracted his attention and looked at Su Lin's status bar again - he was overtired, and his blood volume was also dropping at a very slow rate.
Huh, wait...
Xu Sili was slightly stunned. He saw that Su Lin's HP limit had actually decreased instead of increasing!
Although the speed is not very fast, it still shocked Xu Sili.
He never thought that the upper limit of blood volume would be reduced? Frowning for a while, he quickly understood that blood volume is actually life value, which represents vitality, and Su Lin did not get timely rest because of his day and night research, which was actually a great drain on his body. of.
This also affects his lifespan, so the upper limit of blood volume will be reduced.
Xu Sili pursed his lips.
Although his need for Huilan Medicine was urgent, it did not mean that he hoped that Su Lin would do such a thing at the cost of his life.
It is not a wise approach to fish out of the water.
Looking at Su Ye and Gu Lie next to him, it was obvious that the blood medicine was made by them. Even without Su Lin's participation, they seemed to be able to handle it with ease.
After thinking for a while, Xu Sili paid attention to Su Lin, then opened his mouth slightly and sang in a low voice.
"Roland's Goodnight".
A very quiet and gentle piece that can make the audience feel like they are back in the warm embrace of their mother and fall into a deep sleep without knowing it.
Today, he has been able to limit the scope of his skills to specific people.
Seeing that Su Lin suddenly stopped writing, his eyelids started to fight, but he tried his best to resist the drowsiness, and finally had to fall asleep, Xu Sili shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If I had known it earlier, I would not have strengthened his attributes so early.
In ten minutes, he also maintained a state of burst of inspiration for 2 minutes, but in just 2 minutes, Su Lin's upper limit of HP has dropped to 100.
Of course, comparing the overall number is nothing, but who knows if there will be any sequelae
Xu Sili didn't want to gamble. He still liked Su Lin very much.
I just don't know whether it is because of the negative effect of [Guidance] or because of Su Lin's physique...
He took this question down and decided to experiment later.
Su Lin fell into a deep sleep, and Xu Sili's sleep song was quickly finished, but he didn't stop, but continued to sing "Germination".
Germination is a skill, since it can restore blood, it should be good for life. Anyway, there is no harm in listening to it more, and it can also improve element affinity.
This time even Su Ye and Gu Lie heard the singing.
While controlling the fire element, Gu Lie muttered: "The mayor is playing "Germinator" again? I feel that today's version sounds better than the previous version."
Su Ye's face was calm and focused on the crucible.
"Be focused and don't get distracted."
After being trained, Gu Lie couldn't help but pouted, but now he is no longer in a tit-for-tat with Su Ye like he was in the academy before.
Obviously very upset, the red-haired boy only made a low noise.
It was quiet inside and outside the cabin, only Xu Sili's singing echoed in the ears of the three teenagers.
After restoring their health to their peak, the singing continued to stimulate their bodies, increasing their elemental affinity without a trace.
After a long time, Xu Sili finally stopped singing.
The three teenagers in the cabin had reached their peak, and even the negative buff on Su Lin had disappeared.
He retracted his gaze with satisfaction, and turned his head to see Si Sheng looking at him intently.
Seeing a little uncomfortable, Xu Sili said, "What's wrong?"
Si Sheng slightly curved his lips: "Your Majesty sings really well."
Xu Sili blinked, eh? that's not right...
"Can you hear me sing?"
Although he opened his mouth to sing, the movement range was not large, because it was mainly to control the sound element, and he didn't need to become too loud...
But Xu Sili quickly thought - this powerful and abnormal man can also control the sound element! It's no surprise that he could hear his singing.
Xu Sili pouted, his eyes dodged, hiding his embarrassed emotions.
Seeing his dodging, Si Sheng didn't say much, his eyelashes drooped slightly, covering those beautiful gray-blue eyes.
His thin lips pursed slightly, and his handsome face with cold lines once again showed a bit of depression and grievance that did not conform to other people's settings, like an abandoned puppy.
Xu Sili glanced at him and bit his lip.
He couldn't stand Si Sheng's appearance the most... inexplicable.
He turned to leave, but before he could move his feet, he couldn't help but turn his head, looked at him and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
He was probably waiting for him to ask. Hearing his question, Si Sheng raised his gray-blue eyes as deep as the stars and stared at him quietly.
Xu Sili's heart skipped a beat.
Just listen to his low voice, which rang softly in this grove.
"I hope that one day Your Majesty will be able to sing for him."
After he finished speaking, he added with special emphasis, "I only sing for one minister."
Xu Sili looked at him blankly.
The man's words echoed in the woods, and the mobilized sound elements clearly hit his eardrums, and seemed to hit his heart directly.
"Plop thump thump-" The heart beat a few beats faster.
Xu Sili looked at Si Sheng's eyes, his appearance was reflected in those eyes, the dumb young man was a little overwhelmed.
After staring at each other for a long time, he seemed to be thinking about something. He hurriedly looked away and said, "Uh... let's go back, it's been a long time since we've been out..."
He didn't answer what he just said.
Si Sheng's eyelashes drooped slightly, concealing the gloom that flashed through his eyes.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Without persecution, he summoned the Shadow Panther with his mind.
The shadow leopard fell on the grass, and the green beast pupils flowed between the two. It was obvious that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong.
It didn't dare to say much, and lay on the ground obediently, performing its duties as a mount.
Xu Sili climbed up first.
Si Sheng fell behind him, hugged him with one hand, and trapped him in his arms. It was something he was accustomed to early in the morning, but at this moment, his face was inexplicably hot.
Suppressing that strange feeling, Xu Sili ordered September to take off.
The Shadow Panther is used to obeying his words. After getting along for so long, it has understood that the master's words can not be listened to, but this little majesty must not.
It gave a low growl as a response, and then a shadow wing was born, flapping its wings and flying to the blue sky.
The harmonious atmosphere at the time of arrival no longer exists, and it seems a little stiff at the moment.
The two masters didn't speak, and the Shadow Leopard didn't dare to make a sound, but when it entered the palace, it suddenly had some bad premonitions in its heart.
It's not a crisis, it's just an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling, as if something unpleasant is about to happen.
Shadow Leopard frowned, and when he wanted to continue to investigate, Si Sheng had already taken it back into the contract space.
There is no other way for September, but to wait for the next opportunity to come out and watch it again.
Xu Sili returned to the bedroom, and after sending Si Sheng away, his strange emotions didn't stop.
He recently...
It's getting weirder!
The young man walked around in the bedroom, and finally decided to go to the dark room to continue watching the progress of the players' escort.
In the surveillance video, there is a long canyon that can only accommodate one person. The middle of the canyon is larger, and the escort team of nearly 200 people is concentrated in this canyon.
And at the entrance to the canyon…
"Roar—" An unknown interstellar beast was stuck there, roaring angrily and trying to break in, while the players and NPCs...
beating it
That's right, because the entrance to the canyon is narrow, the interstellar beast can't rush in for a while, and the deputy team, who is a gold-type warrior, is blocked at the front.
The vice-captain had already strengthened his body with gold elements, and there were two light elementalists behind him who kept throwing light healing spells at him, and Aranko was also standing behind him, casting water healing spells on him from time to time—
So although he occasionally hangs the lottery, he is still strong and full of hatred.
Behind him, his comrades kept hitting the interstellar beast with laser guns. Not long after, with an unwilling roar—the interstellar beast fell to the ground and was directly headshot by a player.
This player is the young man named Hua Sui.
"Fuck, I was robbed by Hua Sui again!"
"If you grab it, you will grab it. Anyway, everyone's experience is equally divided. If they are killed by NPC, we will not get the experience."
"Flower is so arrogant!"
Hua Sui raised her chin indifferently.
Seeing this scene, Xu Sili was a little confused.
No, aren't you on your way? Why are you here all of a sudden... card bug leveling
What made him even more confused was that a female player stepped forward and touched the star beast, and then the giant star beast... disappeared!
Xu Sili blinked and quickly sensed.
He opened the camp warehouse and took a look, and found that there were a few more star beast corpses in his warehouse, and the energy consumption required for the laser gun was much less.
Seeing this, he suddenly understood...
So after players finish fighting monsters, they hand over the corpse directly to the country to exchange for reputation, and then use the reputation to exchange for energy festival replenishment materials, so that NPCs can be used as coolies to upgrade them for free
Have to say, this is a really good idea.
Looking at Li Lai's expression, it was obvious that he was persuaded by the players.
So how exactly did they negotiate an action plan? Didn't I say on the shuttle before that this action is to keep advancing, no matter how strong the beast is
In the monitor, Li Lai flew out of the canyon again, and soon led an interstellar beast back, familiarly let the deputy team top it, and then continued to fight monsters.
Xu Sili: "..."
Bulls are still players bulls!
These eighty-one players are the rhythm of being taken by NPCs.
but…
The stronger the players, the more damage-free this escort mission can be, which is a good idea.
Xu Sili didn't care whether the players' strengths would be unbalanced or not. Players who can create benefits for him are good players. For such people, he doesn't mind providing benefits.
Looking at the energy festival that consumes a lot of energy, he ordered another batch on Xing.com, which will arrive the next day.
Looking at the extra star beast corpses in the camp warehouse, Xu Sili took a look and found that they were basically one or two stars.
He couldn't help but pouted.
A three-star beast is needed to upgrade the imperial city to level 3. Thinking of the frozen beast that was split in half by Si Sheng before, Xu Sili felt a pain in the flesh.
The third-level star core, I didn't even pick it up!
After watching for a while, Xu Sili looked away boredly and looked at the surveillance of the Lihaicheng team.
Obviously, such good terrain has not been found here, so he is still on the road. There have been no casualties yet, but he feels...
It is estimated that the same situation will occur here soon.
After all, players are all connected.
Until three days later, Xu Sili did not receive the star core of the Samsung beast.
The interstellar beasts that block the road are basically one or two stars, and there are very few three-star beasts. The frozen beast last time was the first and only three-star beast encountered this year.
And according to Wen Jishan, it cost the army a lot to win.
As for those interstellar beasts that were killed before, part of the star core did remain - because the star core is very ornamental, it has always been used as a rare gem to flow among nobles, and now it takes time to collect.
Also, not everyone is willing to take it out.
This made Xu Sili in trouble.
In the end, he put his mind on Si Sheng.
Anyway, since Si Sheng is so strong, it is still very easy to fight a three-star beast back.
Moreover, the flight monitor had also captured a three-star rock beast. With Si Sheng's strength close to eight-star, it was more than enough to deal with the three-star beast.
So, he directly sent a message to Si Sheng, and passed the information of the rock beast to him, and asked him to immediately go to the border in the direction of Lanyue City and give him a three-star core back.
Si Sheng took his order, left the inner city, and went to the border to fight the three-star beast.
While waiting for his star core, Xu Sili followed up on the construction task of Doha town.
As the engineering team of Elemental Engineers continues to grow, the construction speed is increasing day by day, and the influx of the population of the slums has also made the population of the town meet the conditions for upgrading.
As long as the problem of food and clothing rate is solved, Doha town will soon be able to upgrade to level 2. When Si Sheng's star core is just sent back, he will be able to upgrade to level 3 imperial city!
Xu Sili thought about the future, and continued to pay attention to the dynamics of the escort team.
The two leaders still maintained their rationality, and were not completely fooled by the players. After feeling almost the same, they continued to set off and started their journey.
However, their state is obviously much better, because the materials that can be exchanged in the camp warehouse have been consumed or thrown away by the players in advance, which greatly reduces the burden on the soldiers.
In addition, in the past three days, Xu Sili added a new batch of blood medicine, and restricted the exchange of only players in the escort team to avoid being robbed by players in other main cities.
With the protection of blood medicine, soldiers can effectively save their lives when they are attacked. With Aranzi and two light healers, they will be heroes again when they reach the safety zone!
It's just that as the environment becomes more and more dangerous, water healing and light healing are gradually unable to keep up, and they can only rely on blood medicine to support them.
Fortunately, until they crossed the Morris Mountains, apart from the "glorious sacrifice" of a dozen players, there was no damage to any warriors.
Of course, it doesn't matter to the player, after all, they can be resurrected, but the warriors are very depressed. Some of them have established a deep friendship with the player, and even regarded them as life and death friends.
Facing the constant "death" of teammates, their emotions were greatly affected.
Although the players later explained that these people can be resurrected, no warriors believed them at all, they only felt that they were too sad and began to imagine.
Players are crazy, but they can't prove themselves-because most players who die are directly killed by interstellar beasts. In such a crisis situation, it is difficult for teammates to take their bodies away.
The explanation is not clear, and the players have to give up - anyway, they will understand when they meet people later.
But in general, in the escort team, no player no longer regards NPCs as data without emotion.
The friendship cultivated in crisis is profound and sincere, and it is unforgettable.
Xu Sili felt this change.
He was naturally relieved and happy, although soon, he received a piece of news that made him even more happy-under Nia's treatment, Cha Mo finally regained consciousness!
