Chapter 217 Turning the Mundane into the Miraculous
The crackling of the campfire was exceptionally clear in the quiet night.
Xu Si, curled up in the driver's seat of "Nirvana," was experiencing a silent storm from the inside out.
The "forging" sensation from the General Type III drug lasted for nearly an hour before gradually subsiding like the receding tide.
He was drenched in cold sweat, his red hair clung to his face, and every breath he took carried a scorching heat, as if the residual warmth of lava still lingered in his lungs.
But in contrast, there is an unprecedented sense of "fulfillment" and "clarity".
The origin of the sequence is like an invisible and endless road, which has now been significantly widened compared to before.
Unlike the first two types of potions, which both extend the path horizontally forward, this one is different.
This medicine widens the road.
The effect was obvious: the Star Anchor operated more steadily and powerfully, and its efficiency in absorbing Blood Sun energy seemed to have increased significantly.
If we have to make a comparison, the previous sequence origins were more like a one-way street, while the current sequence origins are at least a two-way street.
In contrast, the speed of advancement of the sequence has also increased accordingly, and this increase is continuous.
It seems that the Star Anchor's energy extraction is not what I thought.
The reason there is so much is that I can only absorb so much.
Now that the source of the sequence has been broadened, the efficiency of extraction has also increased significantly.
The 3700 was well spent.
"Red Hair, are you alright?" Once everything had calmed down, the little girl knocked on Xu Si's car window.
Xu Si didn't rush to open the car window. Instead, he first bound the [Heart of Winter] in the passenger seat and calmed everyone down.
"What could possibly happen to me? Give me a 'purification'." Looking at the little girl's concerned face, Xu Si didn't argue back, which was rare for him.
"Hmph! You might as well stay a stinky man!"
Despite saying that, Jiao Jiao still gave Xu Si a purification and recovery.
After all, Xu Si doesn't look to be in good shape right now!
After enjoying the "soothing aura" for a whole hour, the crows moved back into the shadows somewhat dejectedly.
His condition was now much better, and at least taking off again was not a problem.
……

[Review: He is not only your loyal partner, but also your most steadfast supporter!]
Xu Si woke up from his sleep and was pleasantly surprised after reading the system's introduction. It was simply turning the rotten into the magical!
Unexpectedly, the [Marrow of the Rock] brought about a qualitative leap in the vehicle's performance. If he had known this earlier, he would have used it to upgrade it much sooner. Why wait until now?
Needless to say, it is "indestructible".
"Traveler's Relics" is something similar to a wilderness exploration map, which directly illuminates all the places they have passed through.
The miraculous energy was even more extraordinary, allowing him to say goodbye to fuel anxiety.
Xu Si also understood its characteristics and principles, commonly known as "getting a bargain".
As long as there is an energy fluctuation nearby, it can conduct, collect, and convert it into the energy needed by the vehicle.
In other words, if anyone in the convoy uses the sequence properties, or if someone else uses energy in a strange way.
He can continuously replenish himself without placing any burden on the one who applies him.
For players like Xu Si who always drive the "Star Pulse," it's the best refueling station.
Xu Si now wished he could use all the remaining drops to upgrade his items; it was like opening a blind box, such a wonderful surprise.
He hasn't had a chance to experience the changes to the car body yet; he'll probably only be able to appreciate them once he starts driving it.
In a brief moment of surprise, Xu Si didn't go back to sleep. Instead, he opened the car door and stepped onto the repaired rock platform.
He was extremely satisfied with both the enhancement potion and the vehicle upgrade; a cold lake breeze swept by, carrying a strong sense of coolness.
"Awake?" Su Su was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the platform, on night duty, seemingly having not slept all night.
The crows, keeping watch with one head upright, naturally noticed what was happening, but only glanced at it before paying no further attention.
"Hmm," Xu Si replied briefly, then walked to the edge of the platform and sat down.
Neither of them were particularly talkative, so they simply greeted each other and then fell silent.
Su Su was resting with her eyes closed, while Xu Si was either bored or waiting for the sunrise.
He wanted to know how efficient the star anchor was at absorbing energy after sunrise.
After an unknown amount of time, the blood-red sun finally rose slowly and laboriously from below the horizon.
The clouds on the horizon and the reflection in the lake water made it look like the most beautiful oil painting.
The morning scene was no less impressive than the one last night.
Under the blood-red sun's rays, Xu Si inadvertently turned around and saw his car. At first glance, he thought he was seeing things.
The body of Nirvana was covered with some reddish-gold patterns at some point.
Like a ferocious flame, or even more like a wisp of cloud on the horizon.
The crimson-gold patterns flowed slowly under the rising blood sun.
Like veins naturally formed on the surface of a car body by golden lava, or like some ancient and mysterious totem that has just awakened.
Under the gaze of his star-like eyes, extremely subtle energy could be seen flowing within those patterns, echoing the newly expanded sequence origin within his body.
Should we start drawing energy from ourselves now?
"Great features!" Xu Si muttered to himself, a rare genuine smile curving his lips.
This upgrade is well worth the price.
Others on the platform also woke up one after another.
Tashan yawned and stretched his limbs. The scars on his back looked like reliefs in the morning light. It was hard to tell whether he had deliberately kept them.
Jiao Jiao rubbed her eyes and climbed out of the pickup truck. The first thing she looked at was Xu Si's car. When she saw the red gold patterns, her mouth opened into an "O" shape.
DouDou held the vortex shell, followed by the Death-Slaying Crow, which had recovered much of its strength.
The three snake heads swayed and moved, following DouDou wherever she went, like a giant version of a penguin.
However, its three menacing snake heads still made everyone want to stay away.
Fu Xiaojian's rib wound had mostly healed, but his expression remained grave.
He walked to the edge of the platform and stood side by side with Xu Si, gazing at the lake surface that was both beautiful and eerily strange.
The rest of the team also began preparing their own breakfasts.
Since there was no indication of stopping yesterday, it's highly likely that we'll continue moving forward today.
