Chapter 140: Refining in an Instant
On the other side, Qi Yu returned to the dormitory. As he walked into the dormitory, he habitually glanced at Xiao Feng's bed next to him. As expected, it was still empty.
So Qi Yu sat in front of the table again and took out the things he had obtained during this period of time from the ring and placed them on the table one by one.
First is the reward for first place in the trial, 5 standard mana crystals, followed by 5 bottles of potions from Zhang Xu, 3 bottles of "Potion No. 1" and 2 bottles of "Potion No. 0", and then there is the "reward" Wu Yi gave himself for this month, 2 standard mana crystals.
Qi Yu calculated that if he absorbed all these things, he would be able to increase his SP by 90 points and HP by 30 points.
Just as he was about to start absorbing, he suddenly discovered that the two mana crystals that Xiao Feng had given him and placed in the ring had been drained of their mana by Qi Yu a long time ago, and had turned into two ordinary stones.
In order to keep a souvenir, Qi Yu put the two exhausted mana crystals into the ring. At this moment, to his surprise, the two crystals that had long been dull were now emitting faint green halos.
After Qi Yu took it out and took a look, he was slightly surprised. He saw that on the system identification interface, the original name was "Standard Mana Crystal", and now its name has become "Blessing of the Tree Demon".
Judging from the literal meaning, these two crystals have nothing to do with mana crystals, but in terms of effect, these two crystals can still increase their mana limit, but there is a new item at the end of the introduction:
"It can be charged through wood element gems or natural element energy. The charging speed varies depending on the purity of the energy."
Upon seeing this, Qi Yu hurriedly checked the elemental gems in his ring and found that several wood elemental gems were indeed missing.
Qi Yu gently placed two magic crystals emitting green light side by side on the table. Looking at the blue and green light shining on the table, he couldn't help but nodded. For him, these two "blessings of the tree demon" were a complete surprise. He never expected that the two magic crystals Xiao Feng gave him actually had the function of "power bank".
So Qi Yu picked up a law crystal without saying a word and began to absorb it, feeling the pure magic power slowly flowing into his body from the palm of his hand, and then spreading to his limbs and bones. Listening to the crisp system prompt sound in his ears, he felt refreshed in his heart.
Soon the first mana crystal was absorbed, followed by the second, the third... Soon all nine mana crystals were absorbed by him. If the masters saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked.
Because no one is able to absorb so many mana crystals in a short period of time, it is already very good for a normal apprentice to absorb three in a week. An apprentice with good qualifications can absorb four to five.
Those who can absorb six to seven mana crystals, basically one a day, are rare geniuses seen only once in a century. And someone like Qi Yu, who can absorb eight or nine mana crystals in a few hours, is simply unheard of.
Qi Yu's talent is certainly not a genius of all time, but he can still use cheats. Whether it is learning spells or absorbing mana crystals, with the existence of a system, he only needs to read the progress bar.
Ordinary apprentices are not so lucky. Once the mana crystals they absorb exceed the amount they can bear, if they try to clear them, the mana will overflow and the excess mana will be wasted. In serious cases, they will not be able to bear too much mana and will die.
After Qi Yu absorbed these mana crystals, he felt the mana filling his body. He glanced at his character panel again and saw that his mana value had skyrocketed from the original 160 to the current 250.
Although this number does not sound very good, it is indeed an improvement. It is worth mentioning that when Qi Yu absorbed the two "blessings of the tree demon", he clearly felt the difference in the mana flowing into his body. The mana containing vitality made him feel very comfortable.
And he could clearly feel that the absorption efficiency of these two was higher than those ordinary standard mana crystals, which made him feel even more magical.
For this reason, after he absorbed it, he took an ordinary standard mana crystal to compare it, and found that if he did not use the system identification, he would not be able to tell the difference between the two.
Qi Yu carefully put the two "power banks" into the ring, and then turned his eyes to the five remaining bottles of potions on the table.
Qi Yu was not very praiseworthy about these five bottles of potions. After all, the way he absorbed them was very disappointing, and the effect he obtained was indeed the same as that of the knowledge and law crystals. Qi Yu felt that the only advantage was that the cost was cheaper than that of the mana crystals, otherwise Zhang Xu would not have been able to take out so many at once.
Qi Yu gently picked up a bottle of "Potion No. 0", looked at it for a while, and gently pulled out the cork. With the experience of drinking potion for the first time, Qi Yu was no longer so surprised by the strange sight of this potion.
Then he drank the potion in one gulp. Just like the feeling after drinking it before, Qi Yu instantly felt a warm current filling his body, and then the system prompt sound rang again.
Qi Yu was mentally prepared, because he knew that he would soon face the side effects of the potion, but his eyes were fixed on his character status bar.
Just after he had absorbed it for about 10 minutes, suddenly an abnormal status appeared in the status bar. Just when Qi Yu wanted to take a closer look, a voice came into his ears.
The voice was unreal and ethereal, sometimes far away and sometimes near. It was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman. Qi Yu was also unable to make out the content of the voice. It sounded like an unconscious murmur, or like the mumbling of a madman.
Qi Yu hurriedly checked the status, and saw a huge debuff on the status bar, on which was clearly written - [No. 0 - Whispering].
Just as he was pondering the effect of this buff, suddenly, whispers exploded in his ears one after another. Some of these words were very loud, while others were very soft. Some had very strange tones, while others were unclear as if there was saliva in the mouth.
They all had one thing in common, which was that it was impossible to hear clearly what they were saying. As time went on, these mumblings became more and more weird and crazy, even accompanied by shrill screams and wails, causing Qi Yu to suffer from headaches.
This state lasted for an hour, especially in the last few minutes, when the sounds simply turned into horrible howls, the kind of howls that seemed to be made only when experiencing extreme pain, were extremely shrill and piercing, making his head feel as if it were being pricked by needles, but fortunately it only lasted for an hour.
As the side effects ended, Qi Yu collapsed on his seat like a puddle of mud, gasping for breath and shaking his head in an attempt to relieve the needle-like pain, but it was better than nothing because he had a feeling that the pain did not come from the body but from the mind.
