Volume 6: The Twelve Wallfacers Chapter 4: How to Increase the Overall Strength of Homeland No. 1
An hour later, Shen Jin walked out of Shang Qian's office with satisfaction. The spring light behind him faded, and Shang Qian returned to her appearance of a cold and arrogant female president. However, the blush on her face showed that... the level of excitement just now had reached its peak.
After Shen Jin walked out of the villa, he thought for a moment and went to look for Li Zhe.
The five captains of the corpse-killing squads in Home No. 1 each have their own private territory, which is located around the inner city.
The three teams led by Li Zhe were in the southwest corner of the villa. When Shen Jin found him, Li Zhe was doing his favorite exercise in broad daylight...
Play basketball.
Shen Jin asked: "How is your recovery recently?"
As soon as Li Zhe saw Shen coming in, he excitedly dunked the ball and said, "That's great. The broken tentacles have grown back. Come on, Jin, play basketball!"
Shen Jin waved his hands: "I don't know how to play this ball!"
"Come try this, I got you something new."
Li Zhe is already a peak-level second-level transcendent and has been at this stage long enough, so Shen Jin feels it necessary to help him.
Of course, exchanging for the third-level supernatural power advancement potion is still too expensive for Shen Jin. After exchanging two bottles of potion, he now only has 6 third-level energy crystal cores left. He has to use them sparingly. You know, the hoarding rat will never let the warehouse be empty. So Shen Jin can take out the [Eight-Armed Shura Advanced Potion] or the [Rubber Man Advanced Potion]. It depends on what Li Zhe chooses.
"I have a bottle of gold potion and a bottle of silver potion. Which potion would you choose?"
Li Zhe looked at Shen Jin, whose left and right hands were empty, and slowly threw out a... ?
"Ahem, don't worry about these details, I'm just making an analogy. I've recently developed some new potions, namely [Eight-Armed Shura Potion] and [Rubber Man Potion], which can eliminate the side effects of your strange abilities. You can choose one!"
Li Zhe was shocked!
The potion that can eliminate side effects, this is what he has always dreamed of, because when he first took the strange power potion, Shen Jin told him... In order to obtain this kind of power, he must first offer his loyalty and loyalty. He needs to take [Energy Serum] once a month to relieve his power pressure. If he does not take it on time, then the body's power will disintegrate. Even if he is now a second-level advanced power user, he cannot get rid of the control of this potion. Li Zhe thinks that maybe he can display it after reaching the third level, but this is also uncertain. He can't grasp Brother Jin's depth... Brother Jin's medicine is too much and too strong!
Now, Shen Jin took out a medicine that could directly eliminate the side effects, which shocked Li Zhe very much. He thought that people like them with special abilities might never be able to get rid of Shen Jin's control in their entire lives. Although the two of them are as close as brothers now, deep in Li Zhe's heart he still longs for freedom. Even if he plans to go on with Shen Jian, what if Shen Jin... dies halfway? Wouldn't all of them, those with special abilities, be buried with him?
This is a very realistic problem, but Li Zhe never said it, because that would make him look stupid...
So, who in the entire No. 1 Home Base most hopes that Shen Jin will live forever?
Even these strange people with special powers, no one wants Shen Jin to survive more than them!
It would be best if the kind is immortal.
"Brother Jin! This..."
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Li Zhe's mind!
His excitement suddenly cooled down, because he suddenly thought of a question... Was Shen Jin testing him? He used a bottle of imaginary medicine to trick him and see what he really thought.
The next second, cold sweat soaked Li Zhe's shirt.
That was a close call!
I almost fell into Shen Jin's trap!
He didn't know what he had done wrong recently. Maybe it was because the injury in the last battle was too light? Or was it because Shen Jin liked the two new girls he had picked up? Or... in Shen Jin's eyes, he was too good?
That’s right, Li Zhe thinks he is the best among all the captains.
Speaking of the Immortal Binding Chain fusion skill alone, he thinks he is the best among all the captains. He has used it many times and made contributions many times. Could it be that... he is afraid that I will bring people to tie him up?
While Li Zhe was still daydreaming, Shen Jin nodded at him impatiently, "What are you thinking about?"
"Uh... I'm thinking I don't need this thing. I'm willing to be loyal to Home No. 1 forever and give my heart to Brother Jin!"
It’s settled!
This wave of tests should be able to be dealt with. Li Zhe gave himself full marks for his calmness and promptness in dealing with the crisis.
I am such a little genius!
Shen Jin looked at Li Zhe impatiently: "Are you crazy? This potion will be used by all of you strange-shaped and superpowered people in the future. Why don't you try the potion first as a captain? No, I mean that your captain should choose first. Yes, that's it!"
"Try...try some medicine?"
Li Zhe was shocked. It seemed that Brother Jin was not going to let me live this time. He remembered that there was a person in Home No. 1 who was often used for drug testing...
Hiss——It doesn't seem like a bad thing. What's wrong with trying some medicine? You often say that I am Shen Jin's dog. Now I want to tell you! What's wrong with being a dog? Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof~!
Li Zhe finally figured it out and a bright smile appeared on his face, but he still had a question: "Brother Jin, what is the difference between these two medicines? Can you tell me?"
"Um... it's easy to tell from the name. Yes, it means exactly what it says. You can figure it out for yourself!"
Li Zhe: “???”
"Ahem! Choose quickly, I have something else to do later."
"Hiss—Brother Jin, you are really testing the drug!"
After hesitating for a moment, Li Zhe chose the [Eight-Armed Shura Potion] because this potion sounded very suitable for his current fighting method. He had previously asked Shen Jin to help him forge 10 weapons, all of which were Mayuling high-end weapons, just to cooperate with his tentacles to carry out multiple attacks. So this Eight-Armed Shura sounded like it had at least 8 hands, which meant that he could still use those weapons.
"Give!"
Li Zhe got a bottle of purple potion, which looked very bright. Except for the energy blood crystal which was milky white and looked like heather, the other potions produced by Shen Jin looked like they were about to send him away. They had red umbrellas and white poles, and after eating them, they would lie on the board together...
After drinking it, Li Zhe's body underwent drastic changes. The tentacles on his body began to grow wildly everywhere, and were finally condensed together by a strange force. After 5 minutes, his body grew 8 arms, or 6 arms and 2 legs, or 4 arms and 4 legs. The arms and legs could transform into each other, just like Asura in the comics.
"ha!"
Li Zhe tested his ability and found that it was slightly different from before. If he could split out long, soft, and thin tentacles all over his body before, then now his strength will be more concentrated, and the splitting force will become 8 arms all over his body. Apart from that, other parts of his body will no longer be able to split tentacles. These 8 very natural arms can all be retracted when not in use, with only two displayed for daily use. When in use, 4, 6, or 8 arms can be taken out, which is very convenient. Moreover, these 8 arms still retain the telescopic function of the previous tentacles, and can be used to take people's heads from dozens of meters away!
"Alas, I can't extend tentacles from other parts of my body." Li Zhe looked down at his lower body, feeling quite regretful.
Shen Jin: (°ー°〃)
"You're not right!"
"Ahem...don't worry about these details, Brother Jin!"
Shen Jin looked at him and said, "Try to see if you can grow two more heads."
"Damn, you mistook me for Nezha!"
Next, Shen Jin exchanged a few moves with Li Zhe and found that its eight arms all possessed the abilities of a second-order peak power-type mutant, and were extremely powerful in close combat and medium-range combat within 50 meters!
It is worthy of being an A-level Barbie Shura ability.
Even though it failed to advance to the third level, it was much stronger than the previous strange abilities.
Shen Jin looked around and saw that all the strange-looking and powerful people were in Li Zhe's Team 3, and his deputy captain was also a strange-looking and powerful person.
After calling the deputy captain over, Shen Jin rewarded him with a bottle of [Rubber Man Advanced Potion].
The deputy captain had no objection to being experimented on, because there had to be a distinction between him and the captain. The captain was the Eight-Armed Shura so he naturally had to choose the rubber man, otherwise he would not have his own identification mark. In the future he would be the leader of a group!
Now there are more and more extraordinary people in Home No. 1, and the opportunity for each deputy captain has come. They may be reorganized into new teams or the captains may be promoted. They will serve as team leaders. For example, Li Zhe is promoted to battalion commander, so he will naturally serve as the previous captain. Perhaps it would be a good idea to change his name to company commander.
After another round of special effects, the deputy captain successfully advanced to rubber man.
In contrast to Li Zhe's evolution, his ability is to fuse rubber and tentacles into one, a bit like the rubber power he gained after eating Shen Jin's big banana. His whole body is full of elasticity.
Standing still, his hands can reach hundreds of meters high. The bones of his body have been transformed into soft tissues by his supernatural power. In other words, he can wrap others up with his body like a python. This supernatural power will be even more powerful when combined with the Immortal Binding Lock Technique!
The vice-captain, who was originally very proud of his ability to change, seemed to suddenly remember something and slowly looked down at himself, "Fortunately, the corpus cavernosum can still be hard..."
And it can be longer than before, the vice-captain is ecstatic!
Shen Jin also learned with satisfaction about the efficacy of the new medicine.
"To exchange for a bottle of this advanced potion, you need two [Second-level Energy Crystal Cores], 10 [Energy Crystals], and 200 [Ordinary Mutation Crystal Cores]."
It is not a big burden for Shen Jin, as he can immediately upgrade all these strange-shaped and powerful people.
But Shen Jin didn't plan to do so, mainly to maintain the special status of Li Zhe and the vice-captain, and to leave room for future rewards...
After leaving Team Three's territory, Shen Jin walked back to his workshop, muttering to himself on the way: "The last rebellion of the strange-shaped superpowers made me a little paranoid, but now the emergence of this advanced potion has made it a stable path for the strange-shaped superpowers to advance to A-level superpowers. From the logic of the system, it wants me to use [Energy Serum] to control these people in the early stage, and then choose to give them advanced potions according to their performance, so that they can become my loyal left and right arms... Okay, the system is also an old Yin coin."
After walking back to his workshop, Shen Jin took out a [Second-Level Power Crystal Core] and an [Energy Crystal].
[Exchange: Power Ball]
A thing similar to the Poké Ball in Pokémon appeared in Shen Jin's hand, red and white, with the word "力" on it.
"After use, you can summon a powerful zombie energy phantom to assist in the battle... The phantom and the person are in telepathy... The strength of the ability changes according to the core attribute crystal core level... And it can be used multiple times, using other crystal cores to recharge it... It sounds great!"
There was no need for anyone to teach him how to use it. Shen Jin directly infused it with his own special abilities, and a strange sensation appeared between him and the sphere.
"call!"
A gust of cold wind blew by, and a black figure appeared behind Shen Jin. It was a second-level power zombie!
However, compared with the hideous image of zombies, the shadow behind Shen Jin seemed to be a civilized zombie. The cuticle on his body was cleaner, and he did not have the pus, inflammation, and maggots that zombies have due to years of running around. Moreover, the shadow's head had a smile on its face, and it looked somewhat similar to Shen Jin's image...
This zombie's appearance has improved by at least 100%!
If one had to say who this image resembled, Shen Jin felt that it looked a bit like the intelligent zombie named Liu. He usually had a human-like expression on his face. The hatred between zombies and humans, the selective eyes, the bloody mouth that was always open, and the terrifying roar all made the zombies outside look particularly hideous, which also caused humans to be instinctively afraid when they saw it.
But if it was the zombie shadow behind Shen Jin, then other people’s first reaction when seeing it would definitely not be “Ah! Zombies are so scary!”, but “It looks like a humanoid monster.”
This distinguishes the [Power Ball] summons from the zombie camp.
After observing the appearance, Shen Jin tried to take a few steps. The shadow behind him was like the fighting spirit outside his body, following him all the time, locking the surrounding area with him as the center. No matter how he moved, the shadow was always floating around him, just like his shadow clone. Shen Jin tried to punch, and the shadow behind him also followed him to punch. Shen Jin's arms were relatively short, and the shadow's hands had already touched the sculpture in front, "Bang!"
The sculpture was smashed into pieces. "Hmm ! It's the strength of a second-level power zombie!"
Then Shen Jin stood still and used his mind to command the shadow behind him to attack. The shadow behind him performed a set of military boxing smoothly and vigorously, just like an intelligent and powerful zombie.
Shen Jin's motionless figure seemed more like he was using some kind of supernatural power, just like Sun Li's shadow magic.
"good!"
Following the guidance of Shen Jin's thoughts, the entire phantom turned into a black smoke and poured into the energy ball in his hand.
Shen Jin took a look and saw a small thing on the energy ball that looked like an electronic screen. It displayed a percentage symbol to calculate the energy. It was very user-friendly. “99%”
Just consumed 1% of the energy.
Shen Jin took out an ordinary crystal core and placed it next to the [Power Ball], "Huh~!"
A suction force surged out from the [Power Ball], pulling the energy factors from the ordinary crystal core. Soon, half of the energy in an [Ordinary Energy Crystal Core] disappeared and became a little dim, while the number on the [Power Ball] rose to 100%.
"Fuck! With this, wouldn't Homeland No. 1 be... a per capita summoner?"
Shen Jin used a [Second-Level Energy Crystal Core] with regeneration properties and an [Energy Crystal], and exchanged them for a [Regeneration Ball] to release the infused skill!
A huge reproductive body appeared behind Shen Jin. Like a giant octopus monster, he controlled the tentacles of the reproductive body behind him and waved them, creating multiple deep pits on the ground. It was very smooth, just like his own body.
"Yes! It is the ability of a second-level reproductive body, and it has not shrunk!"
Shen Jin suddenly had an idea. He held the [Power Ball] in his other hand, input his supernatural power and tried to summon two at the same time. However, he found that his consciousness could not connect to the other Poké Ball. It seemed that he could only connect to one energy ball at most. After summoning the reproductive zombie, he could no longer summon a power zombie. He could only summon one at a time.
“Maybe it has something to do with human spiritual power?”
Shen Jin felt a little regretful, but it was also expected.
At present, Shen Jin still has more than 1,200 [Secondary Energy Crystal Cores]. If all of them are exchanged for this kind of summonable balls, the combat effectiveness of the entire Corpse Killing Team will be further improved.
Since this thing can be reused, the members of the Corpse Killing Team can charge it by killing zombies in their daily life after obtaining it. They do not need Shen Jin to provide them with energy. It is a one-time solution and a very cost-effective expense.
"In this case, I have to make a deal with Tianluodiwang. First, arm my 1,200 core extraordinary people. Then, when we attack the next city, we will save a lot of effort. This thing can even be used as an energy fruit of mine... No! It can be combined with the energy fruit, which means that everyone will have a second-level zombie assistant, and they can also use my energy fruit to explode . Strong! Very strong!"
It would be too slow to obtain the second-level crystal core by yourself. Trade is the best way to promote the rapid progress of the settlement.
"Wait, I seem to remember that there is a batch of crystal cores that are not included..."
