Chapter 112 11
"It's alright, arrange for someone to keep watch tonight!" Xu Si returned to the vehicle with a grim expression, his voice calm.
This battle was just a minor episode for the Salvation Train team, not even a small ripple.
It's unclear whether these teams overestimated or underestimated the salary train fleet.
Fu Xiaojian nodded, signaling Shao Bing and Ta Shan to deal with the corpses, mainly to search for any missing spoils.
"Brother Dao, thank you..." the little girl muttered softly, not knowing who she was talking to.
As Xu Si walked, his consciousness sank into the system, and a bottle of drinking water appeared in his hand without him even realizing it.
Current purification point: 99870
I just killed five attackers, netting 2300 points. Adding that to what I had left, I'm approaching the 100,000 mark.
"System, upgrade this bottle of water to a Sequence Enhancement Potion (General Type II)."
[Purification Points -2100, Remaining Purification Points: 97770]
By the time Xu Si returned to the vehicle, the potion had already been upgraded.
Looking at the familiar bottle of viscous liquid in his hand, shimmering with dangerous silver light and blood-red threads, Xu Si felt a bitter taste in his throat.
Xu Si unbound [Bingxin] and threw it into the dimensional space. This thing almost killed him last time.
However, the little elf who lost his bed was not happy about it.
He was sleeping soundly just now, and suddenly they moved his bed away. Why didn't they move him with them?
The little sprite, clearly possessing a bad temper upon waking, emanated from Xu Si's forehead and flew to his face, babbling and complaining about Xu Si's unkind behavior.
Didn't we agree that food and lodging would be provided?
They said they wouldn't let us stay, and then they just wouldn't let us stay. The little elf had never suffered such an injustice.
Although I don't know what the little fairy said.
But after the symbiosis, he was able to instantly understand what the little elf meant, so it seems he really did make a mistake.
"I'm sorry," Xu Si solemnly bowed to the little sprite floating in the carriage, and the little sprite was clearly frightened and took a step back.
Xu Si then explained that he hadn't done it on purpose.
However, he had no choice. In order to digest the enhancement potion, Bingxin would definitely have to unload it. Fortunately, it wouldn't take too long.
However, Xu Si still took [Ice Heart] out of the cloak.
『Yi Yi』
The little guy immediately lay down on Bingxin, peeking at Xu Si as he lay there.
"What's your name?" Xu Si asked.
'Yi Yi'
"Yi-Yi? That's a good name. I'll call you Yi-Yi from now on!"
『Yi Yi』
"If you want to stay, then stay here! Don't go out!"
This little thing is related to his life and fortune.
Xu Si knew that Yi Yi had already agreed.
He looked at the 596ml of sequence enhancement potion in his hand.
Xu Si felt incredibly stupid. Wouldn't it be a waste if he couldn't finish the whole bottle?
Could we split it into two transactions? That way we wouldn't have to spend purification points again next time. Or we could sell it to Lao Fu and the others.
He's a genius.
Without further hesitation, he uncorked the bottle, tilted his head back, and drank the viscous liquid in one gulp.
The moment the medicine entered his mouth, the burning or excruciating pain that Xu Si had anticipated did not come.
After drinking half the bottle, Xu Si put the cap back on and quietly lay down on the simulated large bed in the back of the car.
The little elf sat on [Ice Heart], quietly watching Xu Si. At this moment, she was only twenty centimeters away from Xu Si in a straight line.
"You're still shy!"
They were so close that Xu Si's breath could blow the little elf away. Fortunately, the little guy managed to steady himself, and Xu Si quickly shut his mouth.
The pain came later than I expected.
The familiar stinging sensation slowly surged from all parts of his body, but Xu Si sensed something was wrong.
The pain was still intense, but it was tolerable; in terms of intensity, it was roughly equivalent to that of a sequence enhancement potion (general type).
Given his Sequence 2 physical condition, the difficulty of enduring it is much less than the last time he took it.
Is it because the medication has developed tolerance? Or is it thanks to the little guy?
Xu Si's gaze fell on Yi Yi's small figure.
He was enveloped in a faint golden glow.
The little guy activated the "Soothing Aura" property on his own.
The pain remained intense, but with Yi Yi's blessing, Xu Si stopped worrying about it and focused on improving his physical body and sequence.
His original sequence seemed to have been forcibly stretched, imprinted, and hammered!
The bones throughout the body emitted a faint "crackling" sound as if they were being overwhelmed, and the muscle fibers seemed to be repeatedly torn apart and forcibly glued together by an invisible hand.
Familiar pain washed over him like a tidal wave.
Xu Si clenched his teeth tightly, veins bulging on his forehead and neck, cold sweat soaking through his inner shirt almost instantly.
His body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and his fingernails dug deep into his palms, leaving crescent-shaped bloodstains.
Fortunately, his consciousness remained intact, unlike last time when it was almost scattered.
I don't know how much time passed, but as the pain washed over me countless times, the faint comforting sensation that belonged to "Yi Yi" remained beside my head.
That gentle, peaceful, and vibrant warmth, like the warm breeze of early spring, quickly restored his limbs and bones.
Time slowly passed amidst the interplay of extreme pain and gentle healing.
After an unknown amount of time, the raging energy tide within his body finally began to subside and settle, and Xu Si finally recovered from the pain.
After a few minutes of rest, Xu Si finally regained control of his body.
"Thank you!" Xu Si grasped Bing Xin and re-bound it.
"Yi Yi" also sank into the palm of his hand, but before disappearing, she left her little head to say goodbye to Xu Si.
Xu Si sensed his body's energy and frowned slightly. The last time he took the medicine, it pushed his Sequence 2 path forward by at least half.
This time, the dosage was only half of what it was before, about a quarter.
Therefore, drug resistance has indeed emerged.
Sequence 2 requires at least three or even four sequence enhancers.
When he saw the half-empty bottle of medicine left behind, he could only manage a bitter smile.
The potion, which had been glowing with a silver light, had somehow turned back into clear water. It seemed the system really wasn't going to let him find any loopholes.
However, Xu Si is not far from the threshold of Sequence 3 at this time. If he takes another dose in a few days, he may be able to directly step into Sequence 3.
As Xu Si gently exhaled a breath of stale air, a series of subtle popping sounds emanated from his bones, and the power surging beneath his muscles became even more solid than before.
The effects of potions produced by the system will decrease over time, and the effects of potions made by other extraordinary individuals are probably even more pronounced.
So, it's hard to say whether he made a profit or a loss.
He looked at the half-bottle of drinking water that had returned to its clear state, feeling a slight regret, but also preventing him from taking any shortcuts.
That saves him from worrying about gains and losses.
After putting away the remaining half bottle of water, Xu Si stretched his still slightly sore but full of energy body.
He now desperately wants to be like Su Su, throwing ten thousand punches a day.
