Invincible through Touching Corpses-Chapter 90 - 89: Phantom Body Technique Proficiency 100%
Lin Xinghai had already gained a general understanding of the system’s function for absorbing Blood Qi Power.
You could say that if this function was used well, it might become a Divine Skill in certain situations. But under normal circumstances, it was just garbage.
Of course, this was never meant to be the system’s offensive method. ’Perhaps I’m just getting carried away,’ he thought.
After this Intermediate Zombie died, Lin Xinghai casually took out its Elemental Crystal. But instead of taking it back to the vehicle, he absorbed this Intermediate Elemental Crystal.
This was another test.
When he saw the system panel show an increase of 10 Points, Lin Xinghai’s face remained calm, but deep down, he really wanted to curse.
An ordinary Elemental Crystal was worth 20 Points, and the system gave 10 points of Blood Qi Power for it.
An Intermediate Elemental Crystal was worth 40 Points, but the system also only gave 10 points of Blood Qi Power.
Lin Xinghai refused to believe that the Primordial Qi contained within these two types of Elemental Crystals was the same. Otherwise, the Shelter’s acquisition price wouldn’t have doubled.
Yet, to the system, they were the same.
And it wasn’t just the Elemental Crystals. The same was true for Blood Qi Power.
According to normal logic, the more powerful a Zombie was, the more Blood Qi Power should be converted from its blood.
But whether it was an Ordinary Zombie, an Intermediate Zombie, or a High Level Zombie, the system only gave 1 point of Blood Qi Power.
So, after ruling out all other possibilities, there was only one reason left for this situation... the system was skimming off the top.
But what could he do about it?
"When we go back and distribute the Elemental Crystals, exchange my share of Intermediate and High Level Elemental Crystals for their equivalent value in ordinary ones," Lin Xinghai said to Ling Xiu after getting back in the vehicle.
Ling Xiu: ???
’Normally, for the sake of convenience, shouldn’t the request be the other way around?’
"Okay, okay," Ling Xiu agreed, nodding repeatedly.
The group continued to advance, gradually pushing deeper into the small town.
Of course, Lin Xinghai wasn’t just moving randomly; he was gradually heading in the direction of the winery.
During this process, the group also noticed that Lin Xinghai always chose to stick to the main roads. Even if they encountered a large number of Zombies ahead, he would rather kill them in two waves than change his route.
At the same time, they did their best to clear any obstacles on the road, whether they were cars or collapsed buildings.
Of course, this so-called "clearing" was simple and brutal: they just used the multi-function off-road vehicle to ram anything blocking the path to the sides of the road.
The anti-collision bar on the front of the multi-function off-road vehicle had been specially designed and had taken such situations into account, so there was no need to worry about wrecking the vehicle.
The reason Lin Xinghai went to the trouble of doing all this was, of course, to ensure the road would be clear in case they ran into danger. When it was time to be cautious, you absolutely couldn’t afford to be reckless.
Just like that, the group advanced for over an hour, covering 10 kilometers. In the process, they killed more than 400 Zombies.
Among them were over 70 Intermediate Zombies and 15 High Level Zombies.
It was worth mentioning that when they encountered High Level Zombies, Lin Xinghai used them for another experiment.
Of course, when dealing with High Level Zombies, Lin Xinghai was still quite cautious. He didn’t just charge forward with a dagger.
Instead, he first used the Tearing Rifle to shatter the kneecaps on both of the High Level Zombie’s legs, incapacitating it. Only then did he go up with a dagger, chop off its arms, and finally let the system absorb its Blood Qi Power.
The result of the experiment was just as he had guessed: it took a full two minutes to completely absorb the Blood Qi Power from a living High Level Zombie.
Since he had already suspected this would be the outcome, Lin Xinghai felt neither joy nor sorrow.
After killing another wave of charging Zombies and collecting their Elemental Crystals, Lin Xinghai didn’t immediately order the group to advance. Instead, he called over Ling Xiu and had him observe the situation at the winery.
They were now only 5 kilometers away from the winery, which was the maximum range of Ling Xiu’s Thousand-Mile Eye Superpower.
"It’s the same as what I saw last time. No signs of a battle," Ling Xiu said after using his Superpower to take a look.
Lin Xinghai listened and nodded. "Alright then, let’s keep moving according to the route we planned!"
After giving the order, he opened the system panel. A smile couldn’t help but appear on his lips as he glanced at his Blood Qi Power.
After collecting the Blood Qi Power from that last wave of Zombies, the amount stored in his system had reached 453 points.
This was an unprecedentedly high number. Of course, the most important thing was that his Blood Qi Power had finally surpassed 450 points.
points of Blood Qi Power was a very important number, because it meant he could increase the proficiency of his Phantom Body Technique from 10% to 100%.
With enough Blood Qi Power, Lin Xinghai didn’t hesitate to repeatedly click the "+" sign after the proficiency rating. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
The proficiency shot up, quickly reaching 100%.
Host: Lin Xinghai
Physique: 25 points
Power: 21 points
Speed: 30 points
Blood Qi Power: 3 points
Genetic Optimization Level: 30%+
Superpower: Speed (Within ten seconds, Speed increases by 100%) (Energy Value: 10/10)
Intermediate Shooting Skill: Proficiency 1%+
Phantom Body Technique (Entry Level): Proficiency 100%+
Seeing the "+" sign after the 100% proficiency, Lin Xinghai couldn’t resist and clicked it again.
"DING! Spend 1000 points of Blood Qi Power to upgrade to Phantom Body Technique (Minor Success)?"
Although Lin Xinghai had already prepared himself mentally, he couldn’t help but feel his lips twitch when he saw the number 1000.
He immediately closed the system panel, shut his eyes, and began to review the memories that had appeared in his mind after upgrading the Phantom Body Technique’s proficiency.
They were all details about the Phantom Body Technique. In that moment, his understanding of the Phantom Body Technique had risen to a whole new level.
The Entry Level of the Phantom Body Technique was about changes in footwork and methods of exerting power.
To put it simply, by reaching 100% proficiency in the Entry Level of Phantom Body Technique, Lin Xinghai could now mobilize the power from nearly every muscle and sinew in his body when executing the technique, allowing him to double his Speed.
After he finished reminiscing, Lin Xinghai was suddenly eager to try it out.
Acting on the thought, he jumped out of the vehicle and said to the bewildered Ling Xiu and the others, "I’m going to go up ahead and stretch my legs."
Before the others could even react, he flashed away, rushing out using the Phantom Body Technique.
"Was that my imagination just now? I feel like Brother Lin’s Speed got a lot faster," Zhang Meiling said, a little dazed.
"It’s not an illusion. Brother Lin’s Speed actually reached 60 points." Possessing the Thousand-Mile Eye Superpower, Ling Xiu was the only one present who could clearly see Lin Xinghai’s movements, and he instantly determined his current Speed.
"60 points of Speed? Does that mean Brother Lin is a Speed-type Optimized, and his Genetic Optimization Level is already close to 60%? Is he about to break the second Genetic Lock?" Zhang Meiling asked.
They could all roughly tell from their Perception Power that Lin Xinghai hadn’t broken the second Genetic Lock yet, but they couldn’t perceive his specific Genetic Optimization Level.
"Mm, that must be it. His Genetic Optimization Level has to be at least 55% or higher. Add the speed bonus from the Phantom Body Technique on top of that, and that’s how he can have this kind of Speed..."
As Ling Xiu was speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted. "How is that possible!" he exclaimed in horror.
