  [Random generation completed]

  [Spirit body

  spirit: 30
  Body: 100
  Trait: Calmness Lv1]

  [Looking for random release location.]

  [Please note: After the random release is completed, the spirit body will have 2 During the solidification process, the spiritual body will not suffer any damage during this process.

  "Quite mediocre attributes."

  Yes, after all, only one core was invested.

  As for the process of solidifying the spiritual body, Xu Zhi simply and roughly understood it as two seconds of invincibility.

  [The random location selection has been completed and is starting to be released.]

  The moment this line of narration appeared, Xu Zhi's eyes went dark. There was no dizziness or strange phenomenon. She seemed to just blink her eyes. The next second, darkness A line of white letters emerged from the middle.

  [The delivery is successful, the moment you open your eyes, the solidification will begin.

  "It's true." Xu

  Zhi has always been curious about how the game can put her consciousness into a spiritual body. According to the narrator's description, she has guessed that it may be to create a body that can accommodate her consciousness, but she has also guessed that it may be There is just one more controllable pixel villain in the game. Now it seems that a "temporary body" has indeed been created for her.

  In this case, the operable space becomes larger.

  She doesn't have to be afraid of death when she is in her spiritual body. She can use her spiritual body to do things that she would not worry about in reality. Although her spiritual body has to pay a cost, compared to the functions it can play, the cost is not high. You can definitely use it to make all kinds of small and big risky moves.

  After being prepared in her mind, Xu Zhi slowly opened her eyes. She first subconsciously raised her eyes to look around, but after seeing the surrounding environment clearly, she froze in place.

  Xu Zhi's mind was blank for a full two seconds. The strong stimulation hit her brain, leaving her unable to think or breathe. She even stopped breathing.

  Until the two seconds of invincibility passed, a scarlet light flashed in front of Xu Zhi's eyes. Then, her spiritual body died so fast that she didn't feel any pain, and her consciousness instantly returned to her original body. Xu Zhi's brain Then it started to rotate slowly as if it were rusty.

  But as soon as she thought about it, cold sweat immediately spread all over her back.

  What did she just see?
  First of all, there is no doubt that the place where she was randomly dropped was in the city center, because the first thing Xu Zhi saw when she opened her eyes was the bus stop standing in front of her, with People's Park Station clearly written on it, and People's Park in Yuncheng Right in the city center.

  However, the next second, Xu Zhi's sight was filled with things that made her brain shut down on the spot.
  It was -

  densely packed everywhere on the roads and buildings, with deformed and terrifying appearances, and they could be seen with the naked eye. The alien monsters are as dense as a trypophobia attack.

  The moment Xu Zhi opened his eyes, they seemed to be aware of this "alien", so the monsters' eyes, which were glowing in the mist, were all aimed at Xu Zhi. They were cold and bloodthirsty. A look without any sense of reason.

  Even though the streets were silent at that time, when Xu Zhi thought about it, he felt like he heard the whispers of countless monsters.

  They are saying: Look, a lost lamb.

  Every monster was ready to attack her, so that as soon as 2 seconds passed, a monster would attack her first.

  Should she be thankful that her spiritual body was too fragile to the alien monster, causing death to come too quickly, and she didn't even feel any pain?

  At that time, he was unprepared and saw that horrifying scene when he opened his eyes. As a result, Xu Zhi's brain went blank for a moment, and he died before he had time to think. Looking back now, in addition to fear, huge doubts also followed. Come.

  Why do those densely packed alien monsters parked on the roadside or squatting on rooftops gather in the city center?

  There are too many possible reasons, something as simple as something is attracting them, or there is a more powerful alien species controlling them to go to the city center. In short, there are various possibilities.

  Now that she knows that the alien monsters are all in the city center, it can explain why she hasn't seen any alien monsters in the past few days.

  But what followed was a strong sense of anxiety and urgency.

  Because Xu Zhi didn't know how long these alien species would stay in the city center. What if they would leave the city center and come here next second?

  It's not here, it can be anywhere in this city. As long as these alien species exist, this city cannot be said to be safe.

  In fact, the aliens working in groups are more dangerous than what the news said before.

  As long as they want to, no one in this city can stop them.

  Do you want to put your life in the hope that those alien species will not suddenly come to you? !
  Just when Xu Zhi glanced over, there were at least hundreds of alien species. That was because the fog obscured part of her sight. In the distance, she could only see eyes shining dimly in the fog!

  She couldn't figure out why the aliens gathered in the city center. She only knew that this city might have another secret that she didn't know about.

  The excessive tension and anxiety even made Xu Zhi want to get angry. She had to close her eyes and take a deep breath to adjust her state.

  Fortunately, in the past days, the pressure of illness and death always followed her. Now that she was suddenly exposed to such a terrifying thing, Xu Zhi could not be crushed. She spent some time to sort out her mentality and opened her eyes again. Eye.

  "It seems that we have to be more radical."

  She still doesn't grow fast enough!
  All Xu Zhi could think about now was the scene she saw when she opened her eyes, and her goal became to at least survive the encirclement and suppression of these alien monsters.

  Before seeing this scene, Xu Zhi's goal was far from being so "big". The more she knew, the heavier the pressure on her became.

  Under heavy pressure, Xu Zhi made a decision.

  She took out the gray [Moth] attribute core and threw it directly into her mouth without hesitation.

  She knew a core wouldn't add much energy, but it was just determination.

  The moment she ate the core, the crystal-hard attribute core turned into liquid in her mouth and slid down her esophagus. Then Xu Zhi's eyes blurred, and a dream-like hallucination appeared in front of her eyes.

  She seemed to see countless gray moths being shut up under the glass cover, and then being released one by one in the night. There were burning candles in the sky. Each moth flew towards the candle like a pilgrim, and then died and transformed into a body. The ashes fell to the ground. An unknown number of moth corpses covered the ground, and the black lines on the gray wings were like silent eyes. They were twisting and changing, looking at the candlelight in the sky with a longing expression.

  Xu Zhi's eyes also fell on the flickering candle in the air, and he couldn't help but want to get closer to it, even though it was radiating scorching heat and burning moths to death mercilessly.

  However, the next second, the scene in front of Xu Zhi began to distort, and she felt a severe dizziness, which made her escape from the psychedelic scene like a moth flying into a flame.

  The clothes on her back were eroded by sweat and gave off waves of coldness. Xu Zhi was also slightly afraid. What would happen to her if she didn't wake up in time and swooped into the candlelight like one of those moths?
  Xu Zhi tried to feel if there were any changes in her body, but unfortunately, after feeling it for a while, she didn't notice any difference. So she picked up the game console to see if the narrator would give any hints.

  Sure enough, the narrator will not ignore her every operation.

  [The scene you saw in your spiritual body frightened you and made you determined to change. You ate an attribute core. It was really a bold move, but how could it not be the right choice at the moment? ]

  [Your moth attribute supernatural affinity has increased, but this is not enough to allow you to obtain a certain extraordinary ability. Perhaps, you need more attribute cores.

  [But please note that you should be aware that devouring attribute cores is risky for sane creatures, especially those with dangerous attributes like moths.

  【Please stay rational and don't let yourself fall into "fascination".

  "Enthralled?"

  It seems that her feeling just now was almost similar to that of a moth, and she couldn't help but want to "self-immolate". Is this a precursor to being obsessed?
  However, one core is really not enough.
  Where should she get more [Moth] attribute cores?
  Xu Zhi turned around and looked at the time. He thought that not much time had passed. After all, the spiritual body was killed instantly, and in her perception It didn't take long before I fell into hallucination, but when I looked at the time, more than an hour had passed.

  After a while, it would be time for her two Familia to call it a day.

  However, so far, there are no hints about finding black fruits in the game. It seems that her luck today is not good.

  Xu Zhi put down the game console and got up to wash up. Although she brought medicine when she moved, it was just in case. After Gouzi reached level 10, her physical fitness increased a little. It is currently maintained at a level, although it is still lower than that of a normal person. I am very weak, but I am fine without taking medicine.

  After washing and changing, Xu Zhi fiddled with the washing machine in the room again, washed the dirty clothes, and then returned to the bedroom.

  She sighed, "It's the end of the world, and I still have to get up at 5 o'clock every day and wash my own clothes."

  When she becomes stronger, she must recruit a subordinate who can help her wash clothes and do daily chores.

  After doing this, the time was almost up. Xu Zhi picked up the game console and took a look. Sure enough, her two dependents had nothing to gain this morning.

  "Forget it, you can't expect to pick up good things every day."

  Xu Zhi threw the two Familia out and let them upgrade themselves. She was not idle at all. In addition to some daily necessities, she brought everything else with her luggage. Book.

  Xu Zhi knew in her heart that there was no way she could use any spare time to exercise her broken body that was panting after just a few steps, nor could she risk her life and go out to look for opportunities. The only thing she could do now was seize all the time to enrich herself. Brain, acquire more knowledge, even if this knowledge may not be used, but be prepared.

  In addition to letting the two Familia hunt, she also asked them to pay attention to the nearby library and clear a relatively safe path this morning so that she could continue to replenish the books at home.

  "Hey, it would be nice if there was an Internet connection."

  The Internet in Yuncheng has been disconnected, otherwise she would not even have to go to the library and just use her mobile phone or tablet.

  It wasn't until the first round of hunting was over that Xu Zhi looked up from his book and prepared to count their harvest.

  Xu Zhi, who had been reading for seven hours, was a little tired, but there was a faint excitement in her eyes, just because she found that her energy bar had increased a lot, and her memory and understanding abilities had also increased. She was reading books faster than before. Faster.

  And it's not like just reading it in a hurry, but really looking into it, understanding it, and being able to remember it.

  Perhaps, the [Moth] attribute did not significantly improve her body, but it did benefit her a lot in this regard.

  "If I digest enough cores, can I achieve a photographic memory?"

  Xu Zhi thought for a moment, and then looked at the game screen.

  The evolution points gained by the two Familia are enough for them to advance to another level, but more importantly, in the [Special Items] column, three attribute cores suddenly appeared!
  Xu Zhi looked at it and saw that there were two [Blade] attributes and one [Moth] attribute.

  "Not bad."

  She does not continue to add new attribute cores to increase "knowledge", but lacks corresponding cores to increase strength.

  She planned to feed the two [Blade] attributes to Xiao Yi. The attribute core was a scarce resource in Xu Zhi's opinion. At such a moment, she hoped to cultivate a more powerful combat power rather than sharing the rain and dew.

  What's more, she also needs Xiao Yi to reach level 20 as soon as possible to unlock the third family member.

  Xu Zhi first asked Xiao Yi and Gou Zi to find a place where they could upgrade, so that both families could upgrade to one level first. Then he ordered Xiao Yi to eat two [Blade] attribute cores, while Gou Zi continued with the next round. 7 hours of hunting.

  After reaching level 11, Gouzi's spirit has increased by 22 points, and his body has directly increased by 120 points, reaching 860 points of physical attributes. As for other aspects, he has not been upgraded for the time being.

  After Xiao Yi digested the two cores of the [Blade] attributes, its evolution point once again reached the upgrade requirements. More importantly, due to the absorption of the attribute cores, the [Blade] attributes in Xiao Yi's body increased, and its characteristics were also obtained. promote.

  So Xiao Yi's panel changed again:
  [Family: Snake Lv14
  Spirit: 200
  Physical: 800
  Attributes: Blade

  traits: Poison Lv5→Lv6, Sharpness Lv3→Lv4, Bloodthirsty Lv4, Cunning Lv3
  Special abilities: None]

  [Evolution points: 200 /3000】

  Toxin and sharpness have each increased one level, but they still failed to evolve active skills.

  "Okay, let's continue hunting."

  At this time, an hour had passed since Gouzi set off. It took some time to upgrade and digest the [Blade] attribute, but Xu Zhi looked at the [Moth] attribute core in the warehouse and had no idea. He hesitated, took it out to the real world again, and then became bored.

  But this time, she was mentally prepared for what would happen after eating the core, and she also remembered the important point of staying sane.

  But this time, the dream-like illusory scene once again had some subtle changes.
