Chapter 260: Man's Soul
He is now developing the uses of Enchanted Fire.
The decomposed fire snake has two effects: burning and explosion. The burning temperature is not particularly high, but the power of the explosion can gain huge penetrating power after controlling the explosion range. This has been confirmed in the battle with the Beast Demon.
Whether the enchanted fire can have such excellent penetrating power is Su Ming’s current research goal.
The upper temperature limit of the enchanted fire is very high. In extreme conditions, it can melt a block of iron as quickly as cheese. If the burning object is replaced with a human body, it can carbonize the human body in a short period of time. Its power is extremely powerful.
But this is an extreme state. To maintain a flame of this temperature requires a lot of mental energy. However, maintaining a fire that slowly melts the metal is a state in which Su Ming can fight for a longer period of time.
In addition, Su Ming also discovered that when the temperature of the flame reaches a certain level, it will not help much in increasing the destructive power, because the temperature in normal conditions is already enough.
When the temperature is high enough, manipulating the form and use of flames can increase the true power in combat.
At present, Su Ming can easily spray out flames with his hands and then change the shape of the flames.
However, relying on imagination to burn flames out of thin air without using hands is a fighting method that Su Ming currently finds difficult to achieve.
Although it sounds like there is no difference between the two, sophisticated tactical changes can cause subtle changes in the battle situation in the smallest details.
For example, if he can only kill people by spitting fire from his hands, and there is a glass wall between the enemy and himself, he must first use fire to melt the glass before he can burn the enemy.
But if he could create fire out of thin air just by looking at it instead of breathing fire from his hands, he could bypass the glass and burn the enemy directly.
If he could take his control of the flames one step further and determine the coordinates of the flames by imagination alone, without even the need for sight, then perhaps in the future he would be able to burn the enemies next door to death directly through an opaque wall.
Su Ming has not yet implemented the last method of use, but he can become familiar with the second method through practice.
Su Ming is now able to ignite a flame of moderate temperature through air. This is the superiority of the enchanted fire compared to the fire snake.
Su Ming also tried to enhance the penetrating power of the enchanted fire. The final result was to turn the enchanted fire into a clustered flame, like a welding torch.
The "welding gun" certainly improved its penetration a little, but Su Ming was not satisfied with its explosiveness.
In comprehensive horizontal comparison, Enchanted Fire is superior to Fire Snake in all aspects, but the degree of superiority is not large.
Thankfully, there is huge room for improvement.
"Are you practicing the techniques of using your powers? I see that your skills are already quite impressive."
A woman's voice came from behind Su Ming. Before he turned around, Su Ming recognized it as the woman from yesterday.
What was the woman's name yesterday? Oh, yes, her name was Hua Yu.
Su Ming sighed and turned around impatiently to look at the other party. Today she was wearing the Alliance uniform. The only differences between the Alliance uniform and the Investigation Bureau uniform were the details and the logo on the chest. Other parts were similar, but it was obvious that Hua Yu's clothes had been altered.
Her waist is very thin and her pants are not loose at all, but tight, showing the curves of her plump thighs and buttocks.
The clothes were specially designed to seduce him. It seemed that this woman was the spouse arranged for him by the Alliance, Su Ming thought.
However, this woman is obviously not satisfied with her partner. This is just fine. Since both parties are not interested, they can just speak openly and clearly.
"Miss Hua, I know the Alliance didn't ask you to come here just to investigate my intentions in choosing a mate. They want you to seduce me, right? I will never be seduced by you, and I will never agree to what the Alliance wants to do to me, so forget about using the beauty trap." Su Ming said coldly.
Hua Yu was stunned. She didn't expect Su Ming to be so direct.
But... but isn't this the end for her? What about her punishment? If she doesn't give Su Ming a child, she will be demoted!
If she is demoted, how can she avenge her wife?
Must be redeemed!
"What are you talking about? It's your choice whether to assist the alliance or not. It has nothing to do with me. I'm just here to investigate your intentions in choosing a spouse." Hua Yu shrugged casually. "Besides, why do you think I want to use a honey trap on you?"
"You want me to answer your question, so that you can start a new topic and get closer to me? This kind of chat technique doesn't work on me. I can tell from the clothes you are wearing today that you are well prepared. And I also know that you actually hate me.
If you don't want to do this kind of work, why insist on it? It will be better for both of us if we give up."
Hua Yu stared at Su Ming's calm face and lost her composure.
She felt that this boy was serious and he really saw through her!
"Um... I think there's something between us--"
"There is no misunderstanding. I just want to save both of our time. Of course, if your work requires it, I can cooperate with you on the surface, and then you can tell the deputy minister that I don't want to find a girlfriend or have any children." Su Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, "Understand?"
Hua Yu's shoulders drooped, she was in despair.
She is a man, and men understand men better. She can tell at a glance that Su Ming really has no interest in her. She estimates that even if she takes off all her clothes and lies on the ground, he will not move at all. This... is really too bad.
She felt inexplicably desperate, but Hua Yu soon came to her senses. She would never give up!
"Brother, do you want to come to my room for a couple of drinks tonight?" Hua Yu asked, looking up.
Su Ming was stunned for a moment. He keenly noticed that the other party's tone had changed.
Hua Yu had always given him a hypocritical feeling before, but now she suddenly became sincere, and...it seemed that under this charming and cold appearance, there was a soul of a tomboy.
"What? Just forget about drinking, right?"
Every failure makes you wiser. Last time I fell into Xia Xiaoyu's hands. If I drink again this time, I might fall into this woman's hands again. It's better not to drink.
Hua Yu sighed, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it with his mouth, and then exhaled a cloud of smoke comfortably: "Would you like one?"
She shook the cigarette box at Su Ming.
Su Ming shook his head: "I don't smoke."
"It's good not to smoke, it's good not to smoke." Hua Yu nodded repeatedly, walked towards Su Ming, tilted her head and said to him, "Let's go over there and talk, I'll tell you the truth."
Su Ming stared into the other person's eyes. In the other person's eyes, he actually saw a kind of vicissitudes that only middle-aged and elderly men have. This vicissitudes formed a sharp contrast with Hua Yu's sexy appearance. For a moment, Su Ming felt that the person standing in front of him was a transgender person.
If the other party hadn't approached him with the intention of getting pregnant, he would have definitely thought that this guy was a shemale!
Well, she seems quite sincere, so let's be honest.
