Looking at the two Miracle Stones on the table, Feng Qi fell into deep thought. He had no idea how to use these two stones, nor did he know the value of them. However, according to the domain assassin, this seemed to be a very rare and precious item.
As he pondered, it was 12 a.m.
As the midnight bell rang in the academy, the rest period began.
The lights in the academy went out.
The library was also cleared at this moment. The librarian began to clean up and tabulate the books.
After waiting for another hour, Feng Qi opened the window and carefully observed the situation outside.
Now that he was still in his combat body form, he could not go out to meet anyone at all.
The only way he could think of was to use psychokinesis to go out of the window at night and head straight to the back mountain of Star City Academy.
Then, he would hunt animals at the back mountain to absorb blood and Qi.
As his gaze swept across the tree-lined walkway outside the window, he suddenly thought of something.
“Narrator, you can scout the surroundings, can’t you? Why don’t you help me check if there’s anyone nearby?”
[But you didn’t ask me.]
“Can’t you take the initiative if I don’t ask you?”
[Even capitalists don’t act like this. Not only do you not provide me a salary, but you also want me to take the initiative to work overtime. Before capitalists start to exploit, they have to at least paint a big picture for their employees and talk about the ideals. You’re just dismissing me with “take the initiative”?]
Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but be stunned. He said in embarrassment,
“The problem is that I don’t have anything you want either. Otherwise, 1 would definitely give it to you.”
[Who says? I just want to hear you call me Daddy.]
“Stupid system, go eat sh*t!”
After a round of verbal interaction, the narrator finally gave a hint.
After confirming that there was no one around, he released psychokinesis to wrap his entire body. Then, he flew out of the window and flew in the air under the night sky.
A moment later, he landed at the back mountain.
The night was hazy.
However, in his combat body form, his eyes were two balls of burning flames. He could still see the environment in the darkness clearly.
“Narrator, get to work, find the prey!”
Faced with his request, the narrator cursed and began to search the back mountain.
Soon, the narrator replied:
[I only found five wild boars among the large creatures here. The rest are generally small animals like snakes, earthworms, and rabbits. They can’t really satisfy your needs. It looks like you’ll be busy tonight.]
“Location,” Feng Qi said without hesitation.
[12 o’clock direction, there are three earthworms in the soil.]
“Stupid system, no matter how many earthworms there are, they won’t be enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. Another kind.”
After another round of verbal sparring, Feng Qi took action.
Following the narrator’s instructions, he shuttled through the forest at the back mountain and began to hunt the wild animal to absorb the power of blood and QI.
A few hours later, after killing a wild boar with a single punch, Feng Qi absorbed a ball of rich blood and Qi.
Sensing his gradually recovering blood Qi, he knew that he was not far from transforming.
At this moment, the narrator’s deliberately lowered voice sounded in his mind. [Why did the hare at the back of the mountain die a strange and tragic death? Why is the black-skinned wild boar wailing in the middle of the night? Is that skeleton-like figure under the moonlight a human or a ghost? What unknown secrets are hidden behind the strange and tragic deaths of countless wild animals at the back of the mountain of the academy? Is this the loss of morality or the distortion of human nature? Is there an invisible pair of hands behind the bloody massacre… Let us come to 3 a.m. and walk into the inner world of the skeleton man to explore the secrets behind him. I am the narrator and I will be explaining for everyone.]
Veins throbbed on his forehead. He couldn’t help but say,
“Stop fooling around. Hurry up and get the next one. There’s a risk of being exposed once dawn breaks.”
[Okay!]
In the following period of time, Feng Qi seized the time to sweep through the back mountain.
Finally, an hour later, he absorbed enough blood and Qi.
With a thought, a rich blood essence power appeared on the surface of his body and enveloped his body. In the blink of an eye, he returned to his original appearance.
With the danger of exposure resolved, he heaved a sigh of relief and immediately floated into the air.
A moment later, he returned to his dormitory through the window.
He came to the desk and sat down. His gaze swept across the two Miracle Stones still placed on the desk.
Until now, he still did not understand the use of these stones.
[Why don’t you try eating it? Like how you ate the rune crystal back then. Perhaps the stone contains a huge amount of energy.]
Hearing the narrator’s reminder, he immediately nodded.
He had thought of letting his future self try it in the future dream. It was safer that way.
After all, the Miracle Stone might be poisonous. There was a risk of being poisoned if he ate it by mistake.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was inappropriate.
In the future timeline, he would lose all his innate abilities. Perhaps even a very weak poison would cause him to die suddenly, wasting his life for no reason.
However, it was different for him in reality.
On top of the fact that his physique was far stronger than in the sacrificial timeline, he could also decisively switch to the combat body form in an unexpected situation. This way, he would not have to be afraid of the poison flowing and spreading in his blood.
Therefore, he decided to try it himself.
He grabbed a thumb-sized Miracle Stone and took a small bite.
With the enhancement of his innate ability, his teeth easily bit off a small piece of Miracle Stone. He chewed and swallowed it.
He summoned the interface and switched from the energy replenishment progress bar to the attributes panel. He began to wait for the Miracle Stone to take effect.
As he waited, the attributes on the interface indeed changed..
