Astral Apostle Chapter 21: Blonde
Eighth day of stay, training ground.
With the scorching sun hanging high, Zhou Jing was bare-chested, holding a heavy training knife for drills, and the sweat all over his body reflected light.
The breathing rate is special, and the muscles of the whole body vibrate at a high frequency during each move.
Suddenly, Zhou Jing's eyes flickered, he exhaled, and the heavy knife fell sharply.
"Ha!"
Boom! A ditch was smashed into the ground.
[[Hunter's Breath and Forge] has been upgraded]
[Current level: Lv1- (beginner)]
[Effect: Physical +1]
"Finally upgraded!"
Zhou Jing let out a long breath and puffed out the muscles in his arms. He only felt that his strength had increased significantly compared to a few days ago, and his exhaustion when using the Hunter's Breath technique was greatly reduced.
He practiced for several days, from not getting used to it at first, to quickly forming muscle memory, and now he is really getting started.
"This move is really different from other skills. The upgrade also comes with increased attributes, so each upgrade should increase physical fitness..."
Zhou Jing was secretly happy that he finally got a skill that could significantly strengthen himself.
At this time, Baron, who was supervising on the side, came over with an extremely complicated expression.
"You...you have practiced?"
"It should be like this. I feel stronger again. The breathing technique you taught me works well!"
Zhou Jing clenched his fists and laughed.
“…”
Baron subconsciously clutches his chest.
This heart is sour.
If he hadn't personally instructed Zhou Jing and confirmed that this person had never learned Hunter's Breathing, Baron almost wanted to grab Zhou Jing's neck and yell, why are you so skilled? !
Balong originally thought that it would take more than ten days for Zhou Jing to remember the secret of this breathing technique. It will take at least a few months.
He had learned that before.
However, after only a few days of guidance, Baron was stunned.
Zhou Jing's speed of progress made him stunned for a moment, almost doubting his worldview for the past few decades.
If he understands the skills quickly, he also recognizes them. At most, it means smartness, which is still within the scope of his understanding.
But after just a few days of exercise, the body can make the exercise effect that can be achieved in several months, and become strong at an unbelievable speed... Is this something that can be done by humans? !
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, if others dared to brag about him like this, he would have slapped his ears long ago!
Baron swallowed and looked at Zhou Jing in surprise, a little afraid to speak in his usual loud voice.
Don't dare to speak aloud, for fear of shocking people in the sky!
Genius! Incredible genius!
Zhou Jing didn't know that Baron was roaring in his heart. He was happy for a while and asked, "My hunter's breathing technique has started. How far should I practice next before I can use the alien blood potion?"
Baron suppressed the shock in his heart and opened his mouth to answer, but suddenly stopped again, a little hesitant.
He originally wanted to be the same as before, saying that you have to practice for two or three years, but Zhou Jing's situation is obviously beyond his understanding.
I feel that my previous experience is not valid for this person...
After hesitating for a while, Baron decided to speak carefully, and in a negotiating tone, he said carefully:
"I have to admit, your performance far exceeded my expectations, and I don't know how long you'll be practicing... why don't you practice for a few months?"
"Alright."
Zhou Jing nodded, thinking about it.
A few months in the alien world, or a few days in the main world, is worth it for growth, which is much shorter than originally expected.
If each level of [Hunter's Breath and Forging] has the effect of +1 physical fitness, then you can accumulate more basic physical fitness to enhance the effect of abnormal blood enhancement.
At least another two or three levels.
And after [Hunter's Breath · Forging] reaches Lv1, the training acceleration cost to reach Lv2 requires 150 points. By analogy, then from Lv2 to Lv3, the acceleration cost is 200 points... So at least 350 Astral Points must be invested in this piece.
Mastering the sword technique also needs to invest some astral points to activate the practice acceleration. Although the cost is lower than that of the breathing technique, it is also an overhead.
'It's calculated like this...fortunately, the inventory of astral points in hand is sufficient. ’
Zhou Jing did not hesitate, and directly started the new level of training acceleration of [Hunter's Breath · Forging]. He reached out and held the handle of the training heavy knife, and was about to continue training.
At this moment, my heart suddenly trembled.
'It's time...'
Zhou Jing immediately noticed this, and when he looked up, he saw a streamer crack quietly opening in the sky.
Om!
The next moment, the consciousness directly separated from the body and floated into the sky.
Zhou Jing looked down and saw the body of his astral apostle from above.
After his consciousness left the body, "Jason Wood" just moved for a while, and there was no other abnormality, and then exercised in the same way as before.
Zhou Jing retracted his gaze, his consciousness flew into the air, and entered the streamer crack.
…
The last time I returned when I was in a daze and coma, this time I returned to a normal state of being awake, but there is no need to adjust.
Returning to the shuttle preparation space, Zhou Jing looked at the panel, and the return settlement information was displayed.
[This campaign has ended! ]
[The actual length of stay: 8 days]
[This resource collection: 124 astral points]
[The experience log has been archived, and the relevant exploration results have been entered into the illustrated book]
[Next shuttle cooling time: 15 hours on the main body]
The astral points collected this time are not as good as the last time. After all, I killed a strange beast last time, so I didn't do anything major this time.
However, this was within Zhou Jing's expectations. He had planned the second apostle's first shuttle. The goal was to find a stable environment and begin to develop.
Now "Jason Wood" has successfully integrated into Frostwood Village, followed Baron's training, and got on the right track.
According to this trend, you will soon be able to accumulate strength and gain extraordinary power... At that time, your first step will be completed.
What he is not sure about now is how the Astral Apostle operates in the placement mode under normal conditions.
During the placement period, the actions of the astral apostles are also recorded in the experience log in the form of first-person images, which can be viewed at any time, and can also directly receive relevant memories.
The last time "Will Wood" was in a coma for the entire placement period, and acted in bed scenes from start to finish, which was of no reference value.
Zhou Jing casually glanced at the statistical details of the regression settlement and switched to the placement mode interface.
[Please formulate an action plan for the placement of the astral apostles]
[Place object: Jason Wood]
[The highest synchronization rate record: 31% (second stage)]
[The upper limit of placement income: astral point 0/2000, information particle 0/20]
[Please set the main action target, secondary action focus, handling plan for events, handling plans for battles, and interaction plans for characters...]
"The goal is to develop, then practice is the main thing to reduce the possibility of accidents..."
Zhou Jing thought about it for a while, and quickly settled on a placement plan.
The primary and secondary action goals are "focusing on practice", and other handling plans for events, battles, and interactions have chosen a more conservative style.
In addition, it is specially set. The main skill to practice is [Hunter's Breath and Forging].
[The placement plan has been saved and will take effect immediately]
[Whether to open the map overview mode, additionally specify the activity area during placement, and plan the activity track? ]
Zhou Jing thought about it for a while, and designated the storage area as Frostwood Village, and chose the plan of "don't leave unless necessary."
[End of setup]
[shuttle reserve space closed]
[Next countdown: 15 hours]
Zhou Jing's eyes flashed, and his consciousness returned to his body.
Opening her eyes, she returned to the rental house.
The starry night outside the window is bright and neon flashing.
Zhou Jing glanced at the time. When he entered, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, and now it is past one o'clock in the morning the next day. The shuttle time is exactly eight hours.
He recalled the situation before his shuttle, and his memory was very clear. He stayed in the alien world for eight days, and his sense of time was not confused.
"Is there an improvement in spiritual attributes?"
Zhou Jing glanced at the attribute of the main body, but it did not change. The spiritual attribute was still 7 points.
The body is not tired from the ascetic practice in the world of alien beasts, but as comfortable as it is rested.
"The next step is to wait fifteen hours..."
Zhou Jing turned on the phone and watched the video.
During this shuttle, he deliberately disconnected his mobile phone from the Internet, and shot against the corner of the wall, only letting the body lying on the bed appear on the edge of the lens, so as to record the body during the shuttle, and found that it was no different from sleeping normally.
Zhou Jing fast-forwarded after watching the video and confirmed that the main body was normal. He couldn't help but ponder:
"Although I feel full every time I return, to be on the safe side, it is best to use the shuttle as sleep time, and each time should preferably not exceed 12 hours, unless there is a survival cabin."
"The cooldown of the shuttle seems to increase as the arrival time increases. If the analysis is correct, then according to the current ratio, as long as the main body time of each shuttle is well controlled, the astral shuttle can be roughly performed once a day. "
Zhou Jing silently calculated.
It's July 20th, and September 20th is still a few days away.
In this way, there are plenty of shuttle opportunities.
Remembering the training method of Hunter's Breathing Technique in his mind, Zhou Jing thought about it, stood up, and tried it carefully.
Although the astral apostles who have not cleared the level will not inherit their abilities, their knowledge and memory will not be affected, and they have mastered the trick of [Hunter's Breath and Forging].
He finally learned a skill that is a little closer to the extraordinary. He is also very interested, and naturally he will not miss it. Let the main body also try to practice it.
After tossing for about ten minutes, Zhou Jing was sore all over, panting and confirming two things:
First, the Hunter's Breath technique is also effective in the main world and can be used normally.
Second, the body's physical fitness is too stretched to the hip, so I can't practice.
"Looks like I need to exercise..."
Zhou Jing rubbed her cramped calf, feeling a little helpless.
The current body is still too weak, far less than the initial physical fitness of the astral apostle that he pinched, and it does not meet the threshold of training [Hunter's Breath and Forging].
Although clearing the Star Realm Apostle is the best way to obtain extraordinary power and the most cost-effective, but the main body should not be idle, the time during the cooling down period must be used, and exercise should not be neglected~IndoMTL.com~ Both hands must be grasped , both hands are hard.
Zhou Jing had unprecedented energy in his heart, his thoughts flew around, thinking about the action plan of his own body in the past two months...
First of all, you must learn the Terran Empire language by yourself, taking advantage of the unaffected knowledge and mastering it as much as possible. In this case, if there are more valuable skills in the future, there is no need to inherit the language parsing skills, and this free inheritance slot will be reserved for other skills.
The second is to search the Internet for some historical data that matches the development stage of the alien world, as well as some information on wild survival and cold weapons. Although the world is different, the knowledge accumulated in the interstellar era is also useful, and some of them are more advanced.
He also wondered if he should find some ancient technical materials and try to climb the technology tree in the alien world, but after thinking about it, he temporarily gave up the idea.
The laws of the two planes may be slightly different. It takes a lot of time to explore. It is better to consider this issue after obtaining extraordinary power. At present, exploration and development are the main things.
The next thing is to exercise the body. Although you can't practice Hunter's Breathing, you can do some basic exercises to at least make yourself healthy.
If nothing else, six-pack abs still needs to be developed.
In the end, I will work hard to travel through the astral world, try to clear an apostle, and complete the plan as soon as possible...
Zhou Jing was sure, and quickly made a plan.
"It's quite fulfilling..."
Zhou Jing only felt that after he had a head start, he felt as motivated as he had been beaten with blood.
It was only now that he had time to look at his phone to see if there was any news during the eight-hour shuttle.
Soon, Zhou Jing discovered that there was a group chat called "Best Party", and the message record was flashing.
