Chapter 51: Strengthened Abilities!
This time the enhancement is not as primitive and bloody as the last time I did it myself, and there is no need to cut the wrist to let the parasitic beast larvae burrow into the flesh and blood.
But after Xia Ran paid for a D-class causal crystal, the "young snake" in his hand was suddenly pulled by an unexplained force. A large ball of light from above also cast a beam of light, which shone right on its body.
In the pure light, the parasitic beast larvae seemed to disintegrate, turning into countless pure light particles, and then, under the traction of the beam, quickly converged to his left hand and merged into it.
Xia Ran felt that his left hand was heating slightly, as if it was soaked in warm water, and it lasted for about half a minute before the beam disappeared, and the feeling in his left hand gradually subsided.
His mind moved, and the next moment, his left hand suddenly stretched out as if rubber had been stretched, and cracked from the palm part of the hand at the same time!
In less than a second, four long tentacles appeared, like a huge poisonous snake indifferently spitting letters, surrounding him, and the bone blades at the tips flashed with a terrifying chill.
“……”
“……”
For a moment, the air seemed to be quiet.
Xiao Zuo, whose memory is still stuck in the last moment of life and death, seems to be a little unable to accept such a violent and huge contrast, as if the picture of the previous frame is still a tragic and bloody battlefield, and the picture of the next frame is abruptly transformed into a plain and gentle daily life.
It took several seconds before it put away its aggressive combat stance, and the split tentacles and bone blades quickly merged into one, and then circled in front of Xia Ran's eyes.
"Here it is...... Where? ”
"This is the white space, an absolutely safe place, we are out of danger now......" Xia Ran pondered for a moment, and then said concisely.
After all, after such a long time, he naturally gradually got used to this strange scene, and no longer had any sense of rejection for his alienated left hand.
"I can't explain a lot of things to you, because I don't know much about it myself, and I'll find a way to find some information for you later, and you'll understand when the time comes, so don't ask me now."
This is something he has decided a long time ago, the parasitic beast's powerful learning ability can be used as a portable intelligent computer, as long as it "enters" enough information.
Although it is a reduced version of the computer, after all, no matter how strong the parasitic beast's learning ability is, it is impossible to record the materials of a library, and probably it will not be able to develop any 3D scanning and projection functions......
— but that's enough.
“……”
“……”
Xiao Zuo was silent for a moment, and then said very calmly: "My cells seem to have doubled directly. ”
"Oh, it's because you've been strengthened......" Xia Ran said casually, this situation was in line with his estimate.
The enhancement of the parasitic beast is presumably to increase its special cells, and the increase in special cells allows it to quickly assimilate more of the host's body cells, and increase the number of cells that can be spawned by instantaneous division.
As a result, more and more powerful biological weapons have been mimicked, and the most intuitive change is probably that the number of tentacles of parasitic beasts has become more numerous and tougher; The bone blade will also become larger, harder and sharper......
For example, under normal circumstances, Xiao Zuo's attack posture will only divide two tentacles, but it has just woken up, and the first time it regained its consciousness reaction, it directly separated four tentacles, which is the proof.
It seems that it is also feasible to directly strengthen the parasitic site, and there is no need to continue to increase the number of parasitic beasts at the host level.
However, it is only after the return that this higher degree of freedom of "enhancement" option can be unlocked, and such a sassy operation can be achieved. Before this, this kind of thinking was unrealistic at all, and Xia Ran hadn't thought about it at all.
The remaining three parasitic beast larvae could also be concocted in the same way, in that case, Xia Ran's left hand would probably become a monster even more terrifying than Goto.
It's just that in that case, it would be contrary to Xia Ran's original idea, not only did he fail to realize enough funds, but he also had to consume an additional part of the causal crystals to strengthen a special piece of equipment.
No matter how smart this equipment is, no matter how closely it is connected to him, no matter how important it is at the moment...... But after all, it is not his own power, it is still an "external force" in a sense.
The taciturn Xiao Zuo returned to its normal arm form, and Xia Ran did not block its consciousness again this time, but let it maintain its perception and reaction to the outside world.
He gathered the remaining three parasitic beast hatchlings and re-entered the common area through the wooden door.
……
……
There are a lot of people setting up stalls in the square, and many of the stalls are often clear at a glance, and there are not too many goods on display.
The scene where there are only four or five items of 3D projection information floating in a stall is the most common, with fewer or even only one or two items, and more than a dozen items......
It seemed a little shabby, but Xia Ran knew that this was a normal situation, if all kinds of items and equipment were so easy to obtain, he wouldn't have to worry so much.
He also found a place to set up a stall, and put the three parasitic beast larvae on them, and set the price......
Because he looked at the recycling price of white space, Xia Ran was not worried that his price was unreasonable. And he didn't stay at the edge of the stall, but left directly to find his goal.
This is to prevent someone from haggling and wasting his time.
It turns out that this thing is really very sought-after, and in less than ten minutes before and after, it was bought one after another, and it seems that they are all the same as Xia Ran, probably just after one or two missions of the new ones, and they urgently need this kind of thing that will be of great help to them.
Xia Ran was paying attention to the income while looking for his target in this huge square. But it wasn't an easy task to find a needle in a haystack, and he didn't find a better option than the White Space recommendation.
After browsing it around, he knew that when the last payment arrived, he returned to his personal area very decisively.
First of all, I opened the exchange list, and directly arranged them in the recommended order, and purchased five skill scrolls, which are worth mentioning that they are all spell scrolls, and the skills recorded are no longer ordinary techniques such as Aikido, but magic that starts at the bronze level.
The five spells are "Whispering", "Anger", "Courage", "Fear", and "Calm", all of which are basic illusion spells from a certain high-level magical world......
- Because it is exchanged directly from the inventory in the white space, there is no preferential price, and even if it is purchased in a package, there is no concept of large quantities being preferred.
It added up to make Xia Ran's money from the resale go to seventy-seven eighty-eight, which was really distressing, but he still gritted his teeth and bought another skill scroll, which recorded a static skill called "Sui Qi Method".
Because it belongs to the foundation of the basics, you only need 3000 points to start directly. Xia Ran originally wanted to find a meditation technique with a Western system, but he didn't find anything suitable, so he didn't force it.
Anyway, it seems to be the same, the magic side is called "meditation", Buddhism is called "meditation", and Taoists call it "meditation...... In fact, they are all different names for basic spiritual cultivation.
Because of the lack of time left, he didn't use those spell scrolls for the time being, but first learned the static skill called "Sui Breath Method".
After that, he distributed the five free attribute points, and finally chose the most important "λ-DRIVER system".
This thing is one of the highest manifestations of black technology in "Full Metal Frenzy", which can transform offensive or defensive impulses into energy with physical attributes, that is, personal consciousness into external manifestations.
It's just that this thing is generally a device directly mounted on the body, Xia Ran can't understand why the white space would recommend it to him alone, could it be that there is a miniaturized individual soldier type?
"It can be exchanged into the brain, and the brain cell tissue is used as a structure. However, since it is not the original device, and it is not a system mounted on the relevant body, the strength of the effect will vary, so please find out by yourself......"
The answer given by the white space was this, Xia Ran, who had already completed the exchange, suddenly even changed his face.
But putting these aside, after spending the points crystallization in one go, his strengthening around his spiritual attributes seems to have basically taken shape-
The potential of the "λ-DRIVER system" has yet to be explored, but it has already allowed him to transform mental power into actual attack or defense, rather than having high attributes that cannot be converted into real abilities.
As for the effect, it is also quite good, Xia Ran experimented a little, and found that he can directly create a powerful attack equivalent to an ordinary sniper rifle, but then he needs to slow down and cool down for more than a minute, and he can't attack continuously and uninterruptedly.
Or it can defend against a continuous strafing attack equal to the power of a normal firearm, which can last for a few seconds, and this is when it is attacked, and if it is not attacked, it seems that the λ-DRIVER shield can be maintained for a long time.
Although it wasn't ruinous at the beginning, Xia Ran was already quite satisfied with it.
After all, this is the manifestation that has just been strengthened, whether it is the strengthened power itself, or his own spiritual potential, both aspects have not been well developed, and there is still considerable room for improvement.
In addition, the strength of the Parasitic Beast's left hand is also on a higher level, allowing him to be fearless in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and his melee ability is definitely not a weakness.
The strong side has been strengthened and improved enough, and the attack and defense are also taken into account, and the theoretically deficient aspect will not be held back, and even the "external force" relying on special equipment has been improved to a level that is not much worse than the strong point, which can be said to be very stable.
"Strength: 5"

"Intelligence: 7"
"Spirit: 30"
"Perception: 8"
"Enhanced: Parasite (Bronze), λ-DRIVER System (Silver)"

"Equipment: Parasitic Beast (Left Hand)"
…………
This is Xia Ran's current profile page.
It can be said that compared to the "useless person start" panel at the beginning, a sea change has taken place.
The perceptual attribute has also increased a bit, and it seems that it is because his myopia has healed, which is probably a surprise. However, it also illustrates a problem, he was obviously short-sighted before, and his perceptual attributes can still have a value of 7 points......
It's no wonder that because of the combination with the spirit, the skill of "battle intuition" has awakened.
It seems that there is no other reason to explain it than talent.
