Chapter 595
Even though the captain’s voice wasn’t loud, many people still heard him.
“Old Song, what are you saying? Soul force isn’t constant to begin with, how can it be so little?”
“Yeah, don’t disturb the chief instructor just because of an illusion.”
“You’re also stuck on the neck of a peak ninth layer martial artist. You can’t absorb much soul force, so it’s normal for you to feel wrong.”
The team members beside him repeatedly advised.
Soul force was something that had existed since the outbreak of the apocalypse. After more than a year, it had been deeply engraved in the hearts of every awakened.
It was like water flowing down to the bottom, and cultivation could become stronger This was a rule that had existed in the first place.
It was better to say that the soul force had become less, than that the sun had been eaten!
“No, I’m not. I’m not lying!” the squad leader said anxiously.
He did not dare to stop and quickly said, “Chief Instructor, this is what happened.”
“When this desert first appeared, I was one of the team members who investigated the situation in the desert. Although I did not encounter the Transcendent Level Sand Digging Sandworm at that time, I also killed a few ordinary Sand Digging Sandworms.
Later, I also carried out several missions in this desert. I killed Sand Digging Sandworms of different levels at close range and absorbed a lot of soul force. I remember it very clearly.
In the past few times, the soul force absorbed was not bad. This time, if it were forjust a slight fluctuation, it would be fine. But I feel that the absorption rate is nearly 20% less than the previous times.”
20% was supposed to be a very obvious gap.
However, the members of the Survey Corps had a high level of awakening, and the gap between them and beasts was not small. Every time they killed, the soul force that they absorbed was not much. At the level of high-level awakening, the improvement of their strength was more dependent on the cultivation method. The effect of refining the soul force was not as obvious as the low-level.
More importantly, each time they killed more than one beast and demonic beast, in the face of these four or five layers of enemies, which member of the Survey Corps was not unparalleled?
Other than obsessive-compulsive disorder, who else could clearly calculate the soul force they absorbed in battle?
The others fell into deep thought.
They silently recalled the previous battle, compared the soul force absorbed, and the number of beasts they killed, and then realized that… they had not remembered this at all.
…
Tree Shade, Lord’s Castle.
Tang Yu pinched the yellow bead with two fingers.
In his senses, this bead emitted a rather strong yellow light. It even caused the surrounding earth elemental energy to gather. Soon, the concentration of earth elemental Genesis Qi in the hall was clearly higher than that of other elements.
“It’s a treasure.”
Of course, Luo Zhe could see it too, but he couldn’t figure out the root of the bead.
Tang Yu held his chin with one hand and data flowed through his eyes. It lasted for nearly half a minute before it slowly faded.
There was a trace of surprise.
“It’s actually a manifestation of a law fragment.”
“Law fragments?”
“That desert was originally in a s.p.a.ce interlayer. When that s.p.a.ce truly merged with Earth, it might cause subtle Law fluctuations.”
“Of course,” Tang Yu smiled. “It is a very weak fluctuation. It almost won’t affect the outside world. On the contrary, because of the intersection of Laws, it is possible to form a treasure like the’ Law fragments ‘. However, the probability is very low.”
“Unfortunately, the power of law contained in it is too weak. It can’t even be considered a trace.”
Not to mention that he was not good at the earth element, just the Gla.s.s Flame Mark in his mind contained more than a thousand times the power of the earth element bead.
He could not deny the value of the earth element bead, but his vision was too high.
Tang Yu threw the yellow bead back with a whoosh, “If you don’t want it, just put it in the corps’ treasure house, mark the price, give the earth element ability to advance.”
This earth-type bead was enough to become one of the top three treasures in the corps’ treasury.
Since it was impossible to comprehend, Luo Zhe decided to bid a high price when he returned.
He immediately told him about the abnormal soul force situation.
Tang Yu pondered for a moment and tapped his tactical watch a few times.
A moment later,
Following the sound of footsteps, Lan Qingya and a few higher ups of the intelligence department arrived.
They were all in charge of the area around Tree Shade.
“Has there been any abnormalities in the city recently? Especially regarding soul force.”
Lan Qingya frowned and thought for a while. “There aren’t any special situations in the city recently. Wait, there seems to be some rumors in the bar saying that someone is complaining that the demonic beasts they killed recently have less soul power.”
Not many people believed this. Lan Qingya originally did not care about it. At this moment, when the City Lord called for her, she realized that the problem was not ordinary. The information she had read over the past few days flashed through her mind one by one.
“A few days ago, when I went to Yang City, I killed a few demonic beasts along the way. At that time, the soul power I absorbed seemed to be a little less, but I thought it was an illusion.”
The few of them looked at each other. Combined with all kinds of clues, the matter of soul power fading was most likely true.
The seriousness of this matter was clear to everyone.
“Pay close attention to this matter and report it at any time.”
For the next few days, intelligence reports were sent to his desk every day.
The intelligence department cooperated with the scouting corps to calculate the degree of decline of soul force.
On the first day, the drop rate was one to twenty percent.
On the second day, it decreased by twenty to thirty percent.
On the third day, three to fifty percent
In less than five days, the disappearance of soul force was very obvious. Even the Awakened ones who had not gone out during this period of time knew about this.
Everyone was discussing with fear in their eyes!
Soul force was equivalent to the experience of leveling up. They had enjoyed the method of refining soul force to quickly level up. When their soul force was reduced by 70%, 80%, and 90%, it also meant that their increase in strength had slowed down by several times!
In troubled times, without strength, one could not control one’s own destiny.
For several days, the atmosphere in Tree Shade City was a bit depressed.
This was still the safest Tree Shade on Earth. The information from all over the world made Tang Yu understand that the fading of soul force was a world. Many large shelters became even more chaotic because of this.
On the eighth day, the soul force completely faded away, killing demonic beasts and beasts. There was no more soul force dissipated, and humans lost the means to quickly improve their strength.
Panic!
This was especially true for low-level Awakened ones who had just awakened and thought that they would be able to reach the peak of their lives.
The government officials of the munic.i.p.al department immediately used newspapers, online forums, and other forms to guide the awakened ones and raise the slogan, “In the cultivation era, everyone can be like a dragon”, explaining the importance of the cultivation method, and the loss of soul force would not affect much.
For experts, it really did not affect much.
After awakening to the high level, cultivation was the main way to increase strength. When one reached the extraordinary level, it was even less of a problem with soul force.
In Tree Shade City, there was the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo, the Adventurer Guild, and it was not difficult to obtain a cultivation method… With a clear path of improvement, the low level awakened ones were depressed for a while before recovering.
On the other hand, the registered students of the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo welcomed a peak.
The gathering places and shelters around the world were a bit chaotic, and many conflicts broke out. Among the many reports, Tang Yu found an interesting situation.
In a shelter where the Extreme Martial Arts Dojo resided, the degree of chaos would always be lower. Many low level awakened ones who only believed in “killing monsters to level up” treated the Dojo of Limits as their only life-saving straw in despair. Very soon, a large number of people who caused trouble in the training of the dojo were less.
