Chapter 41 Treasure <TOC> Chapter 43 The Deal
Translator: SumTLMan
The sun was three poles high at its zenith when Li Mu struggled to get up from the bed. Last night’s activities had really taken a toll on his energy.
He rubbed his eyes and found that Shen Luoyan was sitting on the bed with her back facing him, reading a book, leaving him with a thought-provoking silhouette.
“You should know that entering someone else’s room uninvited is a very rude thing to do.”
Li Mu put on a cotton long-sleeved shirt and said, “You should be glad that I don’t have the habit of sleeping naked.”
“Snap!”
Shen Luoyan closed the book she was reading and turned her head to look at Li Mu.
“Don’t you fear that the person who entered could be the governor or a killer sent by Kallari?”
Li Mu said indifferently, putting on a pair of pants.
“Isn’t the chief supporting me?”
“It seems your courage is even greater than I thought.” Shen Luoyan smiled charmingly. “I like brave men. Keep it up, maybe I will fall in love with you.”
Li Mu shuddered.
“For someone like me, a minor character, there’s no need to use a honey trap.”
Shen Luoyan just continued to gaze at Li Mu.
Her behavior made Li Mu’s scalp tingle.
“Help me identify this, what holy relic is this?”
He threw the holy relic he had searched from Tempur to her. His essence could only hold one more star-level holy relic, if this one was useless, he might as well sell it.
Shen Luoyan took the box and opened it.
“This should be called Electrokinesis among several holy relics of the Kallari faction, suitable for strengthening the awakening of the enhancement system, it can amplify one’s bioelectricity, not a rare holy relic.”
Third-level awakeners could already duplicate their own holy relics. However, the process was not easy. The creator needed to dive into the Source Ocean, capture a sufficiently powerful source essence aggregate, and the more powerful the holy relic to be duplicated, the higher the requirement for the source essence aggregate.
Star-level holy relics require capturing those massive collections of source essence, while day-level holy relics can only be borne by those who dive deep into the Source Ocean.
Li Mu received the holy relic.
“For ordinary awakeners, this holy relic can release several hundred volts of electricity during combat at most.”
Li Mu shook his head, even now he could easily withstand several hundred volts of electricity. This holy relic at most is only useful in battle by suddenly launching an electrical attack. For opponents who are prepared, it will have no effect.
“That’s for the average person, the same holy relic, the difference between a genius and an ordinary person when in use will be vast.”
Shen Luoyan said, with his fingers pointing upward.
“Simply using bioelectricity to release electrical shock, only a primitive person would think to use this holy relic so savagely.”
Li Mu felt like he took a shot.
“Nerve fibers transmit information through ion channel opening and closing that creates a voltage difference, not through the movement of electrons like in metal wires.” Shen Luoyan saw that Li Mu was somewhat at a loss: “In simple terms, the opening of upstream ion channels causes an influx of ions, creating a voltage difference that is transmitted downstream in the form of ion diffusion, causing the opening of downstream channels, and so on in a loop.”
“The speed of A-level alpha fiber transmission in humans can reach 120m/s, which is enough for ordinary people, but still far from enough for awakeners. Electrokinesis can control bioelectricity, you just need to control the voltage difference within a suitable threshold, and you can double the speed of information transmission.”
Shen Luoyan hugged his shoulder:
“This means you can receive information faster and react faster. In battles between awakeners, sometimes a millisecond can mean the difference between life and death.”
Shen Luoyan handed the book to Li Mu.
“Regulating bioelectricity can also exercise organs that are difficult to train. It stimulates muscle training. In short, this is a holy relic suitable for smart people, and fools will find it difficult to use well.”
“Take a look at this book, you will find that many holy relics are not as simple as they appear on the surface.”
Li Mu took the book, which was thicker than a brick, with a gilded title on the cover.
《The Application of Holy Relics on Human Physiology》
“You have long known that I obtained the Electrokinesis.”
“The Kallari Sect has always regarded this holy relic as a hindrance, almost every security officer who received a recommendation letter received this holy relic.”
Shen Luoyan spoke with some disdain:
“If one can only instinctively use the power of a holy relic, what difference is there between humans and the mutated creatures in the wilderness?”
Mutated creatures can also possess psychic energy through the bones of descenders, and if they fortuitously hunt down descenders or awakeners, possessing a holy relic is not an uncommon occurrence.
Li Mu flipped to the back page and found that the entire book was over two million words, flipping through a few pages, it was filled with tiny characters and anatomy diagrams, causing him some headache at the moment.
“You should go to take up your post in the Orissa jurisdiction.”
Shen Luoyan said.
Although Tempur had no prestige in the security agency, the murder of a security team leader in the street still caused quite a stir in the security community, many security officers were quite upset.
Rajaral also made a statement that he would conduct a strict investigation into the case.
“Wait a bit, wait until I finish something.” Li Mu took out the introduction letter and shook it, “The Kallari Sect has not given me what they promised me.”
“I don’t want to owe others, but others also shouldn’t owe me anything.”
Since the Chief wanted to test him, he would show her.
“Haha, Kallari will go crazy, are you sure you can come out after entering the sect?”
Shen Luoyan’s eyes were about to overflow.
Li Mu pulled away the distance between the two without leaving a trace, he felt that Shen Luoyan’s mental state was somewhat strange.
“I’ve been observing him, if he could endure me hanging Tempur’s body at the entrance of the sect, why couldn’t he endure me visiting him again. As long as I don’t touch his bottom line, he has to continue to endure me.”
He held the box containing the holy relic and spoke.
“Enduring this kind of thing has inertia, as long as one endures the first time, they will endure the second time, giving up the initiative, and can only allow others to continuously test their bottom line.”
Shen Luoyan held his face.
“Have you ever thought about what to do if the chief no longer supports you?”
“Just run away, I’ll go and farm in East Xia, does Kallari dare to chase me to East Xia?”
Li Mu said jokingly.
“This idea is not bad, you said if I run away with you to East Xia, when they shoot me, will you feel sad?”
Shen Luoyan teased with a winking right eye.
Li Mu’s heart suddenly jumped.
“Did we know each other before?”
“It seems that you have forgotten everything, don’t worry, I will always be with you until you remember.”
Li Mu felt a sense of guilt, but there was no image of Shen Luoyan in his original memories.
