Chapter 149 Hasaka: Master, which lady is your child? (10k, 2176)

The Rangers looked at the increasingly noisy players and the increasingly congested traffic artery. One of them slapped his head, turned to look at his colleagues, and said, "If this continues, this road will be blocked."

So a group of people stepped forward and began to clear the area.

"Everyone, everyone, people should not gather in large numbers here, and the stalls should be put away. Stalls can be set up at the market on the main road at any time."

Seeing that the NPCs were leaving and starting to participate, the players dispersed and quickly moved the battlefield. Players whose transactions had not yet been completed chose to run to the business district to continue their unfinished transactions.

Watching the people being evacuated quickly, Kyle opened the window and looked at the moonlight quietly.

Finally, he looked at the Gluttonous Slime that had swallowed the Oriha Steel.

The tiny slime squirmed on the table, bouncing from time to time, looking at Kyle, and conveying longing emotions towards Kyle.

Kyle took a deep breath and made a decision in his mind.

It is true that after acquiring a considerable amount of wealth, he quickly started operating the related pharmaceutical industry, allowing Kyle to gather a large amount of funds and return a considerable part of the resources to the territory, investing in the Rangers.

Most of the young men of the Rangers are young and strong. With the investment of resources, they can quickly push away the bottleneck at any time. With the growth of their attributes, they can successfully open the door to higher levels.

Kyle knew that the future period would still be a period of rapid growth for the Rangers. Unlike players, even if they did not fight, they could still grow rapidly by tapping their body's potential.

However, they have their limits after all.

Kyle's resources are limited. It is a brainless act to invest limited resources into an infinite pit.

Moreover, there is a gap in the qualifications of the Rangers themselves, which does not mean that he will be rewarded for his investment.

He must consider cost-effectiveness!

Blindly choosing investment without considering output will definitely lead to big problems.

This is also the reason why he has to focus on Gluttonous Slime.

Because Gluttony Slime had a relatively complete development direction and utilization methods in the original timeline.

Kyle, who was sitting in the house, slowly closed his eyes. There was no way to improve the strength of the entire territory in a short period of time simply relying on the improvement of personal strength.

Especially as players become stronger and stronger, if the Rangers cannot advance faster than the players, huge riots will inevitably occur.

As far as the number of Rangers is concerned, their strength is not outstanding enough to suppress people. God knows what the players will do.

I’m afraid it’s not like fast forwarding to the Japanese RPG’s routine of “expertly turning over villagers’ houses”.

His fingers tapped on the table, a dark look flashed in his eyes.

His original intention before was to use Gluttony Slime to extend the lives of the group of them.

Although there is no way to be like my own slime that swallowed Oliha steel, even if it is cultivated with rare metals that can be purchased relatively easily, a batch of powerful history can still be created.

Lime.

In the previous life, after research by some mages, it was discovered that the thinking ability of gluttonous slime could be removed, and it could be directly transformed into a pool of fluid that could be shaped at will.

Then, through research at the Secret Scroll Mage Academy, these gluttonous slimes who had lost their thinking ability and only retained their instincts were re-transformed.

The final result of this plan was good.

Through magical transformation, the mage can first cut off a small part of the Cursed Swordsman's curse transmission circuit, and then implant a simulated circuit in the body of the gluttonous slime that will not resist.

By connecting the slime's circuit and the cursed swordsman's circuit to each other, the flow of curse power between the two can be integrated.

The slimes will even replace part of the Cursed Swordsman's skin, forming a symbiotic black carapace that slowly absorbs energy from the Cursed Swordsman's blood.

At that time, even if the slimes only have their instincts left, their instincts of survival and eating will drive them to adhere to the cursed swordsman's body for a long time and obey the cursed swordsman's control.

Thus, the once sensational profession of colonial knight was born.

The slime that coexists with the Colonial Knight will continuously consume the Colonial Knight's physical energy and turn it into the motivation for his own survival.

At the same time, in order to ensure that the symbiote is not harmed, the slime will build a protective layer on the colonial knight that is close to a non-Newtonian fluid.

This protective layer has certain automatic counterattack and automatic defense capabilities, and can also actively launch attacks under the control of the colonial knight.

As the colonization knight continues to consume his own magic power and feeds the gluttonous slime with foreign metals, the flowing slime will gradually form new "organs" that can be controlled by the colonization knight.

This mutual coordination process will take about half a year to two years...

The premise of all this is how to positively cultivate gluttonous slimes and adapt to the symbiosis between both parties.

Kyle gently poked the well-behaved Gluttonous Slime with his finger and said:

"If I can really dominate you, maybe there is a better way than the colonial knights?"

If reading a book a hundred times makes its meaning self-evident, then the knowledge about the theoretical framework of magic and a large amount of magic experiments that Kyle now has in his mind can fully support the elementary transformation of Gluttonous Slime.

In fact, after studying the runes with Senior Lily during this period, he already has a sufficient understanding of the operation of the Life Treasury.

By using the rune (thurisaz) as the center of the rune array, and using the circulation path of human blood vessels and the transportation circuit of extraordinary power as the main transportation route, the abnormal power in Kyle's body can be directly extracted into the formation formed by the rune.

Among the patterns on the head.

The name of the [Treasure House of Life] skill really reflects its own effect.

The human body is used as a warehouse to store a lot of precious and cherished energy. It can be said that the existence of this skill is equivalent to providing Kyle with a complete and sound "concept circuit".

Because the premise of the special power extracted from the [Treasure House of Life] is that its "tentacles" can spread to any corner of the body where extraordinary power may exist.

Then through the collection characteristics of the runes in the [Treasure House of Life], Kyle can successfully absorb those powers into the patterns on his head along the circuit.

Thinking of this, Kyle couldn't help laughing.

This inspiration was given to him by Lily.

He couldn't help but recall the previous study process of the two people in Teacher Lucius's laboratory.

…

[Two months ago, in the Secret Scroll Mage Academy-Lucius Mage Tower Laboratory.]

Along with a burst of steaming smoke, Kyle coughed heavily, waved his hand, and silently chanted and cast a spell. A strong wind blew by, and the dust that filled the laboratory was blown out of the laboratory in an instant.

Kyle looked at the swollen piece of meat on the table with some distress and said: "It seems that this rune's temper is much more explosive than we thought."

Lily looked at the monster confined in the cage with some distress.

Now only the lower body of this monster is left.

Its upper body was directly blown into countless blood foam in the explosion just now.

Fortunately, Lucius's laboratory had an emergency protection mechanism set up by him, which limited the power of the explosion as soon as he discovered the spread of the explosion.

Lily sighed and said: "(Thurisaz) runes are not simply a mysterious system built according to the structure of the spell model we usually talk about.

In the more distant times of the gods, the character itself had original meaning.

According to relevant records in the past, this rune itself has many original meanings of thorns, protective triangles and hidden energy.

The secret energy constitutes the treasure house itself, allowing you, Kyle, to directly absorb the extraordinary energy in your body and store it in the treasure house.

The protective triangle symbolizes stability, allowing you, Kyle, to mobilize the extraordinary power in your body to gather it on the way to the treasure house, ensuring that these powers do not become unbalanced and run wild, and are stored in the treasure house for a long time.

The concept of thorns represents the automatic release of the power in the treasure house. The surging extraordinary power will give your body more power, and the direction of the 'thorn' exerted depends on the nature of the power stored in the treasure house.

It will be different.”

Kyle nodded, indicating that what Lily said was correct.

[Treasure House of Life] is indeed very useful. It can even be said that if it were not for the large accumulation of demonic nature in the treasure house of life, it would always be easy for him to feel that he would be out of control under the influence of demonic nature. Otherwise, he might add more

Great use of the treasure house of life.

But now, he decided to think about it first before considering whether to conduct a new round of development of the treasure house of life.

Now after the relevant research is completed, Kyle feels as if he has made great progress in this field again.

Unfortunately, that's just the end of it.

With Lily, the leader, who has been reading books in the library for many years, Kyle can basically be sure that there should not be too many omissions in the relevant information and intelligence about this rune in the Secret Scroll Mage Academy.

After thinking about this, Kyle immediately decided to suspend his idea of ​​continuing to study runes.

"Now that our research on runes has reached a high level, if we continue to study in this area, I am afraid there will be no way out in a short time."

Kyle sighed. If he could, he didn't want his research to end here. After all, all the knowledge he gained about runes would be transformed by dark knowledge and memorized entries in blog posts into information about life.

The skill experience value of the treasure house.

But now it seems that their research has fallen into trouble.

Lily is undoubtedly a mage with a sufficiently high level of knowledge.

Even at such a young age, she is still able to conduct magic research to a certain extent, and it can even be said that the results achieved are quite outstanding.

At least in the eyes of Kyle, who has mastered a lot of magic knowledge, Senior Lily is indeed a very good researcher.

"It is true that the research on the runes has reached a bottleneck. It will undoubtedly be a bit thankless for the two of us to break through as soon as possible.

In this regard, I think it is necessary to ask Teacher Lucius for advice. His magic knowledge and spell inspiration can give us new research directions to a certain extent."

Hearing Lily say this, Kyle also began to think deeply.

After all, no one knows better than him how much achievements Teacher Lucius will achieve in the future.
To be continued...
