Chapter 14 Li Jun Arrives
In the laboratory,
Wang Xiaoming restrained his emotions and looked at the small golden box in front of him. Inside was a pile of orange-yellow translucent irregular crystals. This was the supernatural material he had just identified that could be used to make explosive items.
If it can really be used to make supernatural gunpowder, then the output of supernatural materials is very critical. If the output is insufficient, only a small number of supernatural weapons can be made for a few people to use.
Mobilizing memory,
Wang Xiaoming instantly went through all the information about this supernatural material. The results were good and bad. The good news was that the output of this supernatural material was very high, and the bad news was that the place of origin was in a supernatural place.
Unlike other supernatural materials, this thing was not extracted from evil spirits, but in a special supernatural place.
In reality, the intersection was a jungle with few people. Later, it was discovered by the headquarters and blocked after a simple exploration.
There is a small volcano in the supernatural place, where many evil spirits are entrenched, but most of them are dormant in the volcano and only appear when the volcano erupts.
This orange-yellow crystal was brought out by the volcanic eruption. It is unknown how long this volcano has existed and how many times it has erupted. Anyway, there are a lot of these things, and they are everywhere at the foot of the volcano.
Seeing the amazing reserves of orange-yellow crystals, Wang Xiaoming was relieved. Compared with the dangers of the spiritual land, he was more worried about not having materials to make spiritual gunpowder.
After identifying all the spiritual materials,
Wang Xiaoming took out the orange-yellow crystals and turbid sewage separately. In the following days, he planned to study these two spiritual materials in addition to learning spiritual runes.
Among them, the orange-yellow crystals can make spiritual gunpowder, and the turbid sewage can be used to make items that suppress spiritual resurrection.
The former can increase the attack power of the ghost rider, and the latter can increase the survival of the ghost rider.
"By the way, there is one thing that has not been identified." Wang Xiaoming thought of the fake death yellow paper, which is a spiritual item with thirty-seven runes.
Take out the fake death yellow paper and activate the identification spell.
'Spiritual items containing the power of fake death will fall into a state of fake death when attached to the head, and cannot be discovered by evil spirits, and cannot wake up by their own power. ’
After writing down the results of the appraisal, Wang Xiaoming, who still had some strength left, appraised Cao Yang, who was sitting in the rest area and playing with his phone.
‘A human being who is inhabiting the power of a fierce ghost. ’
There was only a simple description, and no other information. Unlike the last spiritual observation, Cao Yang did not find his peeping this time.
‘The plan to get detailed information about the ghost rider through appraisal has failed. It seems that the appraisal ability is limited to living things. ’
After the appraisal, Wang Xiaoming summarized the results of these appraisals. He found that his appraisal was not the appraisal technique in the game, which had fixed descriptive words.
The information provided by his appraisal ability would change with his view of things. If he believed that the essence of the supernatural was gods, then in the future, when he appraised the supernatural, it would become a god weapon that fell into silence.
The appraisal results would always tell him in a way he could understand.
After so many appraisals, although his spirituality was not consumed a lot, he still felt a little tired. He guessed that it might be because the appraisal consumed his spirit.
However, Wang Xiaoming did not take this fatigue to heart. He called Chen Wei and Pang Dong and gave them the preliminary experiments of the two supernatural materials.
As for the previous experimental projects, they were handed over to Cui Chongshi, who was in charge and continued to kill time.
The research of supernatural items is not smooth sailing. He got the research direction through the identification of the spell, but he still needs to practice continuously to get the results that meet his heart.
After handing over the experiments of the two supernatural materials to the two people, Wang Xiaoming did not let it go. He would occasionally point out the direction and ideas of the two.
In this way,
the life in the experimental base became peaceful and orderly. Every day Wang Xiaoming would bring Cao Yang to the laboratory.
He began to observe runes and study experiments. In his spare time, he would read some professional books on mechanics and chemistry to enrich his knowledge reserves.
Three days passed in a flash.
In the evening, in the dormitory,
Wang Xiaoming sensed the digestion of the magic potion in his body. Because he was distracted by the experiments of the two supernatural materials, he only observed the runes contained in the fifteen supernatural materials today. At this time, the magic potion of the generalist had been digested by half.
It is not only the credit of learning supernatural runes. Since Wang Xiaoming realized the importance of ordinary knowledge three days ago, he would have subtle feedback from the magic potion when learning new knowledge and doing experiments.
After three days of non-stop learning and experimentation, Wang Xiaoming digested a lot of potions.
After digesting half of the potion, Wang Xiaoming's total spirituality was improved, and his talent in mechanics and chemistry was also improved to a certain extent.
For some reason, the gift of the Secret Peer was also improved synchronously. Compared with the general knowledge, it was equivalent to digesting half of the potion.
Wang Xiaoming was confused about this situation. He was just a half-baked extraordinary person. He only knew what was mentioned in the mysterious novels, and his subject bias was very serious.
Just like some commonly used mysterious knowledge, he had no place to learn it. He could only use the mysterious knowledge that came with the potion. This was also the reason why he, the Secret Peer, could only use the pendulum to divination.
There was really a lack of sources of mysterious knowledge.
Without the spiritual world and the star world, his divination often failed, and he often needed to do it many times.
The Secret Peer also brought some knowledge of magic and witchcraft, but because of the difference in the world and his low sequence, he could not use it at all.
Wang Xiaoming could only guess that it might be the changes that occurred through time travel and rebirth.
The digestion of magic potions is progressing rapidly, but experiments with supernatural materials are a bit difficult. The orange-yellow crystal has never found a way to cause an explosion. No matter whether it is fire or impact, there is no sign of explosion.
The research on turbid sewage was good. It was a newly discovered supernatural material that was extracted from a fierce ghost. The suppressive power of turbid sewage on supernatural beings was quickly discovered, but there were many problems waiting to be solved in terms of use.
For the time being, Wang Xiaoming had no good solution, so he could only come up with ideas for Chen Wei and others to experiment with.
Because of the existence of awakened memories, whether it is the mysterious knowledge that comes with the potion or the newly discovered supernatural runes, he does not need to remember it frequently.
This gave him a lot of free time to meditate and practice the manipulation of spiritual power. At the same time, he increased his investment in the acquisition of general knowledge and purchased a lot of professional materials.
Sitting at the desk, Wang Xiaoming opened the "On Mechanics" that he had not finished yet. This was the latest book he had purchased.
A book dedicated to detailing the historical development of machinery was of great help to him in sorting out his memory.
As time goes by, the night gradually gets deeper, the temperature begins to drop, there is silence outside the window, the moonlight is hazy, it is time to rest.
This place belongs to the suburbs of Dajing City, far away from the bustling city. There are no colorful lights and no hustle and bustle of the city.
Wang Xiaoming also finished a full day, turned off the lights and went to sleep.
The next morning,
When Wang Xiaoming and Cao Yang came to the cafeteria, they met Zhao Jianguo who was eating.
"Why do you have time to come to the experimental base?" Wang Xiaoming sat opposite Zhao Jianguo with porridge and pickles.
A headquarters captain who is not staying at the headquarters and goes to their experimental base to have breakfast must have something going on.
Sitting next to Zhao Jianguo was a man in his thirties, wearing a green trench coat, lowering his head to eat. It was Li Jun.
After seeing Wang Xiaoming, Li Jun forced a smile on his face and said, "Professor Wang, long time no see."
Wang Xiaoming nodded politely to the other party. At this time, he was not familiar with Li Jun and had only met him a few times.
"Li Jun," Cao Yang, who was following behind, also saw Li Jun and interrupted, "I heard that you have been promoted again?"
Facing Cao Yang's teasing, Li Jun did not answer, but just gave Cao Yang a cold look.
"Ahem." Zhao Jianguo coughed twice, wiped his mouth with a free tissue, and said to Wang Xiaoming, "This time, the headquarters is planning to transfer Li Jun here to be responsible for your safety."
Wang Xiaoming had no reaction, but Cao Yang was very dissatisfied. He quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and asked: "Ah... what should I do?"
"You will be transferred back to the headquarters first, and we will discuss the specific arrangements later." Zhao Jianguo explained.
"Can you please not transfer me back? I feel that I am quite suitable for this job."
Cao Yang was naturally unwilling to be transferred back to the headquarters. The past few days with Wang Xiaoming could be said to be the calmest days since he became a ghost controller. He even gained a few kilograms in weight.
"No, this is an order." Zhao Jianguo flatly refused. "You come with me today."
Wang Xiaoming did not comment on this, but said he understood and started eating breakfast.
Until Zhao Jianguo was about to leave, Wang Xiaoming suddenly remembered something and said quickly:
"By the way, my latest experiment requires some blood of ghost masters. You can collect some for me. It doesn't need to be too much, just from different ghost masters."
"Okay, leave this to me." Zhao Jianguo waved goodbye.
In the end, Cao Yang was reluctantly pulled away by Zhao Jianguo. After Li Jun finished eating, he sat quietly opposite and looked at the surrounding environment from time to time.
The arrival of Li Jun and the departure of Cao Yang did not surprise Wang Xiaoming. It can only be said that this is the inertia of the world.
He had no problem with it, because Li Jun, who owned the ghost domain, could better protect his safety.
After going to the headquarters for a meeting, Wang Xiaoming already knew the detailed information of Li Jun and controlled two ghosts. The first ghost was codenamed Guimu. Its ability was lignification and strong regeneration ability. Even if his arm was cut off, he could still use Guimu. The regenerative ability grows out.
Lignification is the attack method of ghost wood, and it is also the corrosive force Li Jun faces when controlling a fierce ghost.
The second ghost is the will-o'-the-wisp. This ghost has appeared many times in the original novel. It is also a very powerful ghost that can burn supernatural powers.
What I didn't expect was that this will-o'-the-wisp was only one-third of the complete will-o'-the-wisp.
"If you think about the fact that the last lantern skin of the will-o'-the-wisp lantern can be made into a pocket to hold evil ghosts, you can imagine that the will-o'-the-wisp is not simple." Wang Xiaoming inferred from some plots in the novel.
The lantern skin that can imprison evil ghosts cannot completely suppress the ghost realm of will-o'-the-wisps. Although there are some reasons that he doesn't understand, it is enough to prove the terror of will-o'-the-wisps.
It is a pity that Li Jun did not use the power of the will-o'-the-wisp later. A powerful ghost controller who controlled the will-o'-the-wisp eventually became the captain of the headquarters fighting fires everywhere. I have to say it is a bit ironic.
However, it is these ghost masters who have demonstrated the brilliance of human nature in the era of supernatural revival. Even when powerful ghosts invade and their bodies become corrupted, their human nature still suppresses the ghost nature.
But just like the plots in many cheesy TV series, the good guys can't defeat the bad guys. In this supernatural era where people's hearts are like ghosts, the good guys are often the first to be eliminated.
Li Jun is also a tragic character in the original work.
"But I just love these guys, they're the best teammates."
Wang Xiaoming began to think about forming a powerful ghost-controlling team to end the era of supernatural powers.
The warm porridge went down his stomach, like a warm current, dispelling the coldness in his body. Wang Xiaoming touched his belly with satisfaction.
"Let's go."
"Yes."
The two walked towards the experimental building one after the other, and the morning sun shone on their faces like holy light.
