Life in a different world begins with hidden strength

Chapter 142 Active Heart
The rampant rat infestation has appeared in major mainstream newspapers and periodicals popular in the capital.

The major neighborhoods in the outer city of the Third Ring Road have been destroyed one after another, and the core urban area of ​​the Second Ring Road is not optimistic either. Only the inner city of the First Ring Road is still as stable as ever.

The blue-grey city wall surrounding the inner city is not just a decoration. It is said that the inner wall is engraved with ancient inscriptions. The entire city wall is integrated, has independent consciousness and counterattack capabilities, and can automatically recover after being damaged. It can be regarded as a special element. biology.

Rats cannot dig holes into the inner city. The remnants that occasionally enter through other means will be surrounded and suppressed by the caster once discovered.

Recently, the price of pet cats has been soaring, more than doubling in less than a week.

Businessmen with a keen sense of smell have already started collecting cats, further pushing up the price of cats. In addition, various rodent control tools and rat poisons were sold out of stock.

A large-scale rat eradication campaign was launched across the city.

The disaster that seemed to occur in just a few days was already almost uncontrollable by the time we reacted.

Even many older generations of citizens have not experienced similar exaggerated situations. However, it is certain that once the rat infestation arises, it will inevitably be accompanied by the prevalence of epidemics.

"The handiwork of the Plague Cult?"

"Attracted by the divine being, the area around the royal capital has been very uneasy recently."

The rat plague has been discussed publicly at the royal capital's decision-making meeting. According to information from unknown sources, someone discovered traces of the Plague Sect’s rat sacrifice activities...

Mi Jia'an came to the principal's office, walked in without warning, and closed the door behind her back.

The transparent silhouette reveals the figure.

"Why did you come to me?" Sylvia was still looking down at the document.

"My half-elf follower Yin Fei's physique is atavistic. She has to sleep a lot every day and can only attend half-day classes! Please, please help arrange..." Mi Jia'an explained his request directly.

Sylvia raised her head: "Are you kidding? I have never heard of half-elf blood returning to the ancestors."

"Yin Fei's situation is indeed different from other half-elves. I carved the inscription of life on her bones." Mi Jia'an thought for a while and told frankly.

"How is that possible!" Sylvia subconsciously didn't believe it. Seeing Mi Jia'an's serious expression and thinking about all the incredible things in the legend of gods and men: "Well, I want to see if you can bring her over. By the way, I don't know. Don’t know what it means to have an inscription on the body?”

"Of course I know." Mi Jia'an smiled lightly.

Acting assistant to the principal, dragon maid Dani received instructions from Sylvia's telepathic voice. After a while, Yinfei came to the principal's office.

Within the range of mental perception, her body was constantly absorbing wood-attribute magic elements. Then, the life factor quietly overflowed. Prove that what Mi Jiaan said is true.

"Really?" Sylvia's heart palpitated.

The strength that was originally stuck in a bottleneck and stagnated suddenly opened a door, and behind the door was the Sunshine Avenue.

She deeply felt that she was at a turning point in history and that the tide of the times was approaching.

"Madam Principal!" Yinfei glanced at Mi Jia'an secretly and chose to say hello to Sylvia first.

After all, the relationship between the two has reached the point where there is no need for courtesy. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it at home.

"Well, please sit down!" Sylvia motioned to the person opposite the desk: "Show me your hand." Yinfei raised her slender wrist in cooperation and timidly handed it to Sylvia opposite, with twinkling eyes. Keep glancing at Mijaan.

When did the young master hook up with the principal's lady...

"A miracle..." Sylvia mentally sensed the existence of the life inscription, and her voice trembled slightly: "In the bone inscription, are there any other side effects?"

"It will be very painful when inscribing, and then it will be very easy to get sleepy."

Because of the existence of the magic pattern, Yinfei regarded Sylvia as one of her own, so she had no intention of hiding it.

"I will help with the matter of asking for leave." Sylvia promised: "I would like to ask you to conduct a specific test. The inscription should have more than just these functions..."

"Yes, my physique has become much stronger, and the progress of my practice has also accelerated." Yin Fei showed off the arrogance that covered her whole body.

At the age of seventeen, he became an official professional and had nothing to show off. Considering that she is a half-elf with moon elf blood, she is actually very powerful and can be called an outstanding talent. Last year, Yin Fei's fighting spirit could barely cover one third of her body.

With his moon elf bloodline and combat talent, he has increased his combat power by more than five levels, surpassing many formal-level swordsmen in one fell swoop, and obtained the quota for the advanced knight class.

"Do you have any way to solve the problem of sleeping too long?" Mi Jia'an intervened in the conversation between the two.

"Yes." Silvia answered affirmatively: "Similar research has been carried out by the elves. I have read relevant information. They have invented a buff spell called active heart. Maintain the state of active heart. Next, the active time and sleeping time in a day will be balanced to a ratio of one to two.”

"That is to say, on average, you are active for eight hours a day and sleep for 16 hours a day."

"right…"

Even though it’s only an extra two hours, it’s better than nothing. Yin Fei looked at Mi Jia'an with hopeful eyes, lowered her voice and begged: "Master, I want it now..."

Sylvia copied half of the inscription on two pieces of magic camphor tree paper to prevent the inscription from being molded and damaging the material: "No, this is it! If you don't believe it, look for it yourself in the inner library."

Mi Jia'an tried it on himself first, his heartbeat speeded up a lot, and he felt like he had endless energy. He nodded to himself: "Will it conflict with the inscription of life?"

"I don't know, generally speaking it won't." Sylvia couldn't completely guarantee: "By the way, an active heart will put a certain burden on the heart, and the long-term service life will be shortened."

Forest elves with an average lifespan of 300 years can only live to about 270 years old using active hearts, which is a 10% discount to their life span.

"Is there any other way?" Mi Jia'an asked.

"Other methods are either too demanding or very costly." Sylvia spread her hands and gave a few examples: "If you can awaken and become a spell caster, you can use spiritual transformation to temporarily escape from the dormant body. .

Or simply reduce the amount of exercise and study knowledge by lying in bed and resting all day. The caster can resist mental fatigue. At least reducing the consumption of the physical body will theoretically allow more waking time. "

"Become a spellcaster?" Mi Jia'an whispered the key, thinking of the soul fragments that Alixi found from the space ring.

If Yin Fei's soul overflowing level is more suitable...

He won't be stingy.

With the longevity of the Moon Elf Immortals, the return on investment would only be much higher than that of ordinary humans.
