Chapter 113 Rematch with the Gryphon
The next morning, the soldiers in the camp, carrying their equipment, were getting used to their new weapons.
"Is this weight appropriate?" Leng Yue asked the soldiers as if she were a teacher tutoring elementary school students.
"It feels really strange. Weapons should be getting more and more technologically advanced, so why are we using cold weapons now?" Xiong Lei waved the warhammer in his hand.
"It's just a manifestation of different technological systems. If you judge solely by the appearance of the equipment, you can't accurately determine the 'technological' content of the item." Lin Keli said, while sensing the engravings on the repeating crossbow in his hand.
After all, he was also a source energy scientist and could sense the power contained in these carvings.
But in order not to damage the equipment they had, they could only look at it carefully.
"If everyone is familiar with using their equipment, then we can be the first to go up the mountain." After walking around and confirming that everyone was alright, Leng Yue said.
After all, they still need to move ordinary weapons up the mountain and set up positions before the surprise attack, so it will take time.
"No problem, we'll go first!" Lin Keli said quickly.
At this moment, Qiao Yuwei walked over and said, "How about we call it a day? After all, Wu Ou..."
According to the previous plan, Wu Ou was the main force facing the Eagle Lions at the end.
Wu Ou is currently in a breakthrough phase and hasn't emerged yet.
Nobody knows exactly what's going on.
If she were to face the Eagle Lion alone, Qiao Yuwei felt she probably wouldn't be able to defeat it.
"I'll join you then," Leng Yue said as she walked over. "Even if we can't win, we should try our best to eliminate those beast kings. Only then will we be safer when we continue exploring the ruins."
Their ultimate goal is singular: to safely explore the ruins within the Heavenly Crystal Pool. Everything they do is for the sake of achieving this goal.
Even if we can't defeat the Griffin in one go, we still need to find a way to prepare for the next battle.
"Will this... work?" Qiao Yuwei looked at Leng Yue, a hint of doubt creeping in.
After all, Leng Yue was also a source energy scientist just like himself. Although she had a "heroic and dashing" aura, her strength was only that of an ordinary mid-level first-grade expert!
Can he unleash a fighting force as powerful as Wu Ou's?
Seeing Qiao Yuwei's conflicted expression, Leng Yue remained calm and said, "If you're scared, you can wait here for the result."
Or, go help deal with those beast kings.
With your abilities, you shouldn't be so weak as to lack the strength to even face them!
A simple provocation, yet very effective.
"I'm worried that if you're not strong enough, getting injured will affect the plan and make everyone worry!" Qiao Yuwei's eyes widened slightly, showing a defiant attitude.
"Then let's get started." After Leng Yue finished speaking, she began to arrange the actions of the others.
Judging from how skillfully Leng Yue and the others performed, it was clearly not their first time.
"Why would someone who's a scientist need to know these things?"
Although she had doubts, she didn't ask them. Instead, she stood not far from Leng Yue and watched her operate to learn.
On the other hand, Wu Ou, who was being worried about by everyone, was actually in very good condition.
He sat cross-legged on the bed, and a human figure appeared vaguely opposite him, moving in the same manner.
This is the effect of 'Soul Splitting'!
After reading the information about the activation of the "Soul Splitting" ability in the inheritance, he subconsciously wanted to imitate it.
After all, this is equivalent to having a built-in 'supercomputer' and a mental power amplification device, and sometimes it can even be considered a clone. How could he not be envious!
If it were someone else, they might be envious, but without any special abilities to back them up, recklessly attempting to split their soul and mental power could easily lead to irreparable consequences.
But Wu Ou is different. His special ability is the control of his body, but he has never used it specifically before.
Now, through the information passed down, he has also successfully come to know the 'physical' aspects of the soul and spiritual power.
With this, his superpower met the conditions for activation.
Even though forcing it like this is too much of a burden for him right now, he didn't control it well at first and tried to directly separate a relatively complete soul, so he naturally suffered a backlash from his body.
The body instinctively initiated emergency treatment, with all organs working at high capacity and the stored energy being fully supplied to the superpower.
Realizing that something was wrong, Wu Ou continued to manipulate his powers to reduce the number of souls and spiritual energy that had split off, making adjustments little by little based on what he had seen in the inheritance.
Finally, the moment the soul-splitting seed was completed, he successfully broke through!
With the influx of a large amount of source energy from the world brought about by the breakthrough, his body, which had been almost pushed to its limit, was like a parched land receiving sweet rain, desperately absorbing the source energy of the world to nourish itself.
Yes, with Wu Ou's continuous adjustments to his abilities, his physical fitness has actually already reached a near-advanced level.
At this moment, the tempering of the body by the source energy of heaven and earth during the breakthrough is just a natural progression that allows him to advance further; it is more about making up for the previous depletion.
Of course, it wasn't that there was nothing new at all. The mushroom mycelium core that he had previously devoured had now been completely integrated into his body and become part of his physical abilities.
More accurately, it has become part of his glands and nerve tissue.
But these are all secondary. The main thing is that the Soul Seed, nourished by the large amount of source energy attracted by the advancement state, directly skipped the seed stage and had a preliminary form.
Although it cannot act independently of the body, it is already capable of serving as an AI that assists in calculation and memory.
Wu Ou is currently doing what he is doing: decisively copying his own knowledge and inputting it into the system.
The sun rises, and sunlight streams through the window onto the bed.
Wu Ou opened his eyes and couldn't help but stretch.
Although it is still rote memorization, it is more convenient than muscle memory.
Sometimes, I still envy the mental blueprints that energy scientists possess!
Stepping out of the house, I saw another group of soldiers preparing to leave the camp and head up the mountain, while the artillery was already conducting orientation calibration.
"Have they already set off?" He turned to look at the mountaintop, and the next moment, metal armor rapidly appeared on his body, and he soared into the sky!
Just a few minutes ago, the scouts sent out brought back news of the surrounding area.
Leng Yue nodded. "Everything is going according to plan. Let's move in!"
Boom boom boom boom boom! The small mortars that were brought up attacked the area where the two silly roe deer beast kings were located.
The guards then rushed forward and swiftly killed the energy beasts that hadn't yet reacted.
Hu Meng and Su Xue transformed into sharp knives, stabbing directly into the two silly roe deer beast kings.
Leng Yue glanced at Qiao Yuwei beside her and said, "If you dare to charge, then follow me!"
After speaking, he pressed down on the area behind his ear, and the helmet, which was originally half-covered, became fully covered.
While not as smooth as Wu Ou's, it is still a complete exoskeleton armor.
The carvings on her back and legs lit up, and then she accelerated, rushing into the air above the Heavenly Crystal Pool in the blink of an eye.
"roar--!"
The griffin appeared, its sharp, murderous eyes fixed on Leng Yue.
However, Leng Yue remained calm and pointed upwards with her left hand.
Whoosh—Bang!
Artillery positions were located on the mountainside.
"Signal received, fire!"
