Chapter 206 206 "Is It You Who Lied About Military Information?"
February 6, 2025, Eastern Time, 3:15 pm - less than a day is left before the first explosive wave of alien species in the alien disaster.
"Mr. "Hope", may I ask, has there been any qualitative change? "The researcher looked expectantly at Lin Li who came out of the laboratory and asked eagerly.
"It's a pity that it doesn't seem to be the case. After eating this "exotic stone", the improvement in my physical fitness is as minimal as before.
It seems that one thousand is not the threshold that can break through any shackles. Lin Li twisted his arm, and the joints made a thunderous sound. He smiled helplessly and shook his head.
"Is that so? That's really a pity. You can't...the threshold is 10,000, right?" The researcher showed a true expression, but couldn't help but nodded in disappointment.
"I don't think we need to go in direction one anymore. So far, I have eaten one thousand and three "Strange Stones", but after one hundred, these 903 "Strange Stones" will... The enhancement brought by my body is only equivalent to the changes brought about by a dozen "extraordinary stones" a hundred years ago.
I feel that my body is already resistant to the opposite sex, and the marginal benefit is so low that I can't bear to look at it.
Therefore, it would be a waste to continue using the "Extraordinary Stone" on me - after all, it can shape nine "100-stone" level human limit warriors. Lin Li said with a shrug.
After the alien disaster officially started, it not only brought pressure on the defense line, but also brought a lot of "exotic stones".
The number collected in just this week is almost half of the number of "extraordinary stones" collected in the past. What's more important is that in the past, the scope of Dongguo's collection of "extraordinary stones" was global, but now, it is only Cleaning up the foreign species in the territory is such a gain.
Even with the final payment for technology purchased by other countries, Dongguo no longer seemed so anxious.
After discussing with Nan Lian and Bei Mao, they decided not to collect the balance for the time being, allowing them to reinvest in the construction of their country, and then consider it after the alien wave has passed.
We cannot exhaust the lake to catch fish, we must develop sustainably.
Dongguo has more "strange stones", so the amount that can be 'wasted' on Lin Li's body will naturally be more. At the same time, the curve of the change of "strange stones" in the transformation of the human body will be studied.
Just now, Lin Li took the one thousand and one "exotic stone" from this body and conducted a functional test.
Unfortunately, the results were not ideal—no significant changes occurred.
Lin Li was not too surprised by this result. He had never seen any 'Superman' in his previous life - even though he only survived half of the alien disaster.
"I think direction two is more likely to become a reality - will there be more advanced "foreign stones" in the minds of more intelligent alien species in the future?
If the alien species want to become more powerful, then the "alien stone" in their brains that provides the source of all their actions must also become better, right?
Only by eating this "strange stone" can I get a significant improvement again. Hehe, it was written like this in the online novels I read before. If you want to become stronger, you have to kill stronger ones. Lin Li said with a smile.
"But at present, we have studied the "extraordinary stones" collected in the enlightened alien species, and there seems to be no difference between the "extraordinary stones" in the ordinary alien species. "said the researcher.
"Maybe it's not obvious enough, but it's also possible that this is the ultimate improvement that humans can get in the era of natural disasters.
And it's already an exaggeration, isn't it? I can bend rebar. If I could do it before the Era of Natural Disasters, the civil engineering industry would be greatly purged. Lin Li said, clenching his fists.
He can really bend rebar, but the rebar he can bend now is not 500, which is commonly used and has the highest hardness, but 335, which is the lowest strength.
Moreover, bending requires two prerequisites. One is that the hands and thighs need to be hardened, and the other is that the length of the rebar needs to be greater than 1.2 meters.
And with these two prerequisites, we still need to do our best. The result will be that the rebar is no longer a straight line, but forms a large obtuse angle of about 175 degrees. As for folding in half... Unless Lin Li is allowed to rest and repeat hundreds of times A thousand times, otherwise it would still be whimsical at the moment.
——Yes, after spending so much effort, I can only bend it so much.
But this is already an exaggeration, which means that the ultimate power that Lin Lin can burst out in a short period of time is close to the ton level.
One punch and Tyson's skull would turn into baby powder.
"Understood, but we want to know the limits of human beings too much. We have developed less than 20% of the human brain so far. We always feel that the body will be the same. There are some chains that restrain us, genetic locks. For this aspect The mystery is so interesting to us.
Thank you for taking the time to experiment with us today, sorry to bother you. "The researcher smiled gently and bowed slightly towards Lin Li.
"You're welcome, of course. If nothing goes wrong, I'll leave first. The tide of alien species will hit in a few days. I'm going to go out of the city to clean up the remaining alien species outside. Is there anything you need in the laboratory? Lin Li nodded and asked while removing some of the instruments attached to his body one by one.
"Then if you can, help us catch a few more alien species with significant intelligence. We are still very curious about their changes, and the research has not been thorough." The researcher immediately said after hearing this.
"Okay." Lin Li waved his hand and left the institute directly.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky turned blue, and the sunlight was embellished with a touch of orange-red. The clouds float in the sky like cotton, changing into various shapes. The sun shines through the clouds and casts spots of light, like stars scattered in the sky.
There was no such huge nest of flying alien species that covered the sky and the sun. Lin Li's location at this time was no longer in Zhonghe City.
Although the number of formed alien nests is still increasing, so far, the pressure on the defense line brought by alien species is still within the acceptable range of Zhonghe City.
Some alien species with brains, as soon as they were born in the nest, they saw their own kind turning into corpses in a hail of bullets. After being buried at birth, they decisively chose to escape in a roundabout way, without any contact with the underground machine guns. thoughts.
Although this reduces the pressure on the defense line to some extent, Dongguo would rather they attack together - they will all be annihilated anyway, at least this much.
If it weren't for the existence of this alien species, Dongguo could even guarantee that no flying alien species could leave Zhonghe City alive - unless it was in a cage.
However, those alien species that were able to 'escape' because of their fear did not really escape.
You must know that Dongguo's preset from the beginning was that Zhonghe City could stop at most half of the flying mutants, and the remaining half would wreak havoc in Dongguo.
Therefore, when it comes to air defense, it is not just Zhonghe City that is prepared, but all areas with Easterners, including coastal areas.
If you can break through the first layer of lock, can you break through the second layer? What about the third and fourth floors?
In fact, Lin Li hasn't seen a single flying mutant since he changed places. Although this is also related to the distance - Lin Li can't fly, so there is actually not much he can do to deal with flying mutants. There were many, so I took the "Hope" team to the coastal part of the defense line where the pressure was relatively high to provide support here.
Lin Li quickly summoned the "Hope" team using his communicator. After briefly assigning tasks, he drove them out of the city gate with him.
Outside the city gates of the defense line, the number of alien species was not large, and some were even said to be too few.
After all, after the small outbreak on February 1st, from the 2nd to today, the frequency of alien species' births has been decreasing. But even so, there should not be so few marine alien species. Another reason here is because This area is currently under the sole responsibility of the "Hope" team.
The "Hope" team led by Lin Li is different from other places in that they are too lazy to wait on the city wall for the alien species to come one by one. The implementation policy is to leave the defense line directly and take the initiative to find and annihilate the alien species.
If the alien species isn't looking for us, then let's go find the alien species!
Lin Li and his team members would feel uncomfortable if they didn't clean up several times a day.
Therefore, it is abnormal that there are so many alien species outside the city gate.
The armored vehicle drove about 500 meters, and the number of aliens was slightly more. Guessing that the distance was about the same, Lin Li sounded the horn, and the vehicles carrying other team members around them separated automatically without specific instructions and gradually disappeared. into Lin Li's field of vision.
Everyone is already very skilled, and all of them are elites. For opponents whose wisdom is turned on but not many, there is no need for everyone to gather together.
Lin Li and He Pingzhi, who was in the passenger seat, got out of the car, walked to the back of the car, and opened the trunk. The thing that Lin Li could pack without using his own space was naturally a living thing.
This is the situation in front of me. In the huge backup space of the armored vehicle, there is a alien species.
It is a marine alien species. The alien species has shackles on its feet, a muzzle on its mouth, and a collar around its neck, which is tied to the inner wall of the car in the back space, so the space for movement is extremely limited.
It sensed the change in light. The alien raised its head and saw Lin Li and He Pingzhi outside the car.
However, it did not scream excitedly and then pounce on humans like other unintelligent alien species. On the contrary, it even shrank timidly into the corner of the space behind its back. In its pure-colored pupils, you could see A bit of fear.
Obviously, this is an intelligent alien species.
Lin Li smiled gently. He didn't care whether the smile was gentle or not in the eyes of the alien.
Lin Li then stepped forward, untied the chain from the wall, held it by himself, and pulled the alien out of the car like a pet.
"Wangcai, I've already calmed down my aura, why are I still so scared? I'm not a bad person."
Lin Li said with a smile, and even reached out to stroke the alien's head.
It's a pity that the alien creatures don't have fur, and the touch is really unflattering, even a little disgusting.
Lin Li had indeed restrained his aura - he could now control the aura brought about by the alien potion that frightened the aliens. He hadn't noticed it before, but he just hadn't found the right method.
The way to control this aura is breathing. When Lin Li stops breathing, the scope of this aura will continue to shrink. After about ten minutes, it will converge to nothing.
The earthquake potion has improved Lin Li's ability to hold his breath. Now, Lin Li has been trained to be able to hold his breath for nearly four hours under high water pressure. Under normal circumstances, it will only last longer, so he can hold his breath for ten minutes. It's no difficulty for him.
He is already in this state now.
As for the recovery of the aura, it is much faster than the rate of convergence. It will spread to the maximum value almost one minute after starting to breathe.
It would be much easier to use if you could control this aura, otherwise no wild alien species would dare to get close to it.
However, the alien species did not react to Lin Li's words, and its body was still trembling.
Lin Li didn't expect the alien to be able to speak human words. He stepped forward and unhooked the shackles and mouth cuffs on its body. The alien, which had regained its mouth and teeth, looked at the alien that was not even fifty centimeters away from his mouth. Lin Li's body was subconsciously smashed, but soon he trembled and squatted calmly on the spot, doing nothing.
It was as if after opening his mouth, he would experience some pain.
"Yes, Wangcai is a good alien species. He is indeed one of the smartest beings in your species."
Lin Li, whose body had hardened, looked at the alien's actions, patted the alien's head like a pet, then materialized a whole blood bag and threw it in front of it.
The alien's eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately picked up the blood bag with his sharp teeth, then bit into the packaging bag, drank all the blood inside, swallowed the packaging bag together, and then took it with him He looked at Lin Li expectantly.
Lin Li slowly put on the earplugs for himself, then looked down at the alien, pointed at the roof of the car, and said with a smile:
"Still want to drink? Then you should know what you are going to do, right?"
This was not the first time that the alien had done this. He also understood the meaning of Lin Li's action and quickly climbed to the roof of the armored vehicle. Then he took a deep breath and let out an extremely sharp and ear-piercing roar.
"Those aliens probably wouldn't have thought that there was a mole in their own team." He Pingzhi, who was adjusting his combat uniform, said to Lin Li with a smile.
As the institute said before, there is no possibility of domestication of alien species without intelligence. However, once the alien species has intelligence, and more importantly, the emotion of fear, domestication becomes possible.
The one roaring on the armored vehicle at the moment was an existence that Lin Li jokingly called 'prosperous wealth'. It was considered one of Dongguo's research results in this area.
The long roar it emits at this moment is probably equivalent to telling all the similar people around it that there are a lot of humans here and come here quickly.
——People here are stupid and have too much money, so come quickly! (End of chapter)
