Chapter 264: New A-level Control Item [Magnetic Crystal Heavy Domain] Unexpected Effect

It was not until the evening that Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He held a piece of mechanical equipment in his hand. It looked like a metal disc with a diameter of about one meter, and was divided into several pieces from the center.

Placed on the ground, the central triangular metal sheet cracked in all directions, emitting a bright blue light from within and spreading an invisible field.

[Gravity field blocking device - Class C: A specially designed gravity field adjustment device.

……

Control effect: Strength blessing--200%
Control ability - Gravity field adjustment: within a coverage range of ten meters, it can increase gravity tenfold. 】

This is the basic model, which can suppress ten times the gravity.

The reason why he didn't use the free gravity adjustment device was because its gravity field could be adjusted up and down, which could not only double the gravity, but also reduce the gravity.

B-level items can be adjusted up or down by ten times. Even if they are upgraded to A-level, they can only be adjusted up or down by a hundred times at most.

A hundred times the gravity suppression does not pose such an obvious threat to A-level life forms.

That's why he made this blockade device specifically designed to strengthen gravity suppression.

Continuing the upgrade, Li Ming hesitated a little, but still gritted his teeth and pulled it to Class A, during which he consumed a mother ore called "Zirconium Energy Element Magnet".

It has acquired the ability to interfere with magnetic energy within the coverage of the gravitational field, which can form additional suppression on metal mechanical structures.

The gravity blockade device designed by Li Ming is pushed to the limit in all aspects, so it can reach the maximum multiples.

Therefore, when he reached level A, he not only consumed one alienated energy, but also 10 million metal energies, which really made him grimace.

After all, the improvement of strength brought by this thing is not that obvious in essence.

But he eventually upgraded it to A-level. Even though it was painful to see the metal energy running out again, this thing was meant to be consumed.

Due to the particularity of the force field generating device, if it is materialized and used, it can only be fixed in a certain area.

Therefore, Li Ming chose to strengthen control when choosing the evolutionary route.

After the upgrade, the blockade device did not become increasingly bloated. Instead, it turned into a slender white crystal column, emitting a faint glow, about two meters long.

[Magnetic Crystal Heavy Domain--Class A: Specially designed gravity field blocker, be careful not to get crushed.

……

Control Effect: Super Energy Crystal Domain

Control ability - Gravity field adjustment: Within a kilometer range, a gravity blockade area of ​​100 square meters can be formed in any area, increasing the normal gravity by up to 1,000 times. 】

[Super Energy Crystal Domain: Within the blocked area, the cost of all individual activities increases by 25%]

What a great [Super Energy Crystal Domain]!
Li Ming's eyes were full of brilliance. The gravity field suppression of up to a thousand times, combined with the [Super Energy Crystal Domain], could form a very terrifying suppression effect.

The pressure of a thousand times gravity does not mean carrying a thousand times your own weight.

Every part of the body, organs, bones, blood and flesh cells, and even fragile capillaries are subject to this suppression.

Switching the control object, he looked towards the table not far away, his mind moving slightly.

With a "pop" sound, the metal table seemed to be covered from top to bottom by an invisible force, and was suddenly flattened into a thin iron sheet, sticking to the ground.

"It's like Ulrich's ability, but not so arbitrary." Li Ming pondered, "But in terms of gravity suppression alone, it should exceed Ulrich's suppression limit."

After all, this thing is a top-level A-class control object that cost 10 million metal energies to upgrade.

Then he looked at his body, eager to try.

[Magnetic Crystal Gravity Domain] can reach a maximum of a thousand times gravity. Within this range, he can adjust it freely.

With his current life level, ten times the speed is no problem at all, it just speeds up the blood circulation.

He did not increase it to a hundred times directly, but gradually increased it, twenty times, thirty times...

By the time it reached fifty times, he could already feel obvious pressure, his breathing became rapid, and his heart beat faster.

When it exceeded eighty times, his face turned red, his whole body tensed up, and his heart beat hard and slowly, which also led to insufficient blood supply and various resistance reactions throughout his body.

When it reaches one hundred times, this condition is actually alleviated and the overall feeling is much better. This is because the body adjusts itself and reduces various consumption.

But at the same time, two streams of blood came out of his nose.

"I can still go higher, but I'm afraid it won't last 150 times." Li Ming made a rough estimate, stopped this forced behavior, and then gradually lowered the gravity to allow his body to adapt.

Sudden increases or decreases in gravity can cause great damage to the body.

Only after he completely recovered to normal did Li Ming breathe a sigh of relief. A feeling of lightness from the inside out filled his whole body.

"By the way, training under multiple gravity seems to be able to assist in the development of genetic seeds." Li Ming suddenly remembered.

In order to improve development efficiency, interstellar evolutionaries have come up with a variety of methods, and development training under gravity suppression is one of them.

Thinking of this, Li Ming felt a little more expectant. He quickly adjusted his physical condition and increased the gravity in the area to fifty times.

After taking a few breaths, Li Ming switched the evolution system. He could clearly feel that the activity level of the cells had decreased a lot.

But out of cellular instinct, they are trying to break through the suppression of gravity and strive to return to their original level of activity. Their skin is covered with ripples and their muscle fibers are trembling.

"The general principle is to improve development efficiency by stimulating cell activity." Li Ming pondered to himself and experienced it carefully.

Although cell activity is suppressed under the influence of the gravity field, that is only a surface phenomenon.

The actual level of activity has increased a lot, which has also led to improved development efficiency.

It was difficult to see anything in a short period of time. Li Ming persisted for twelve hours before the gravity field was lifted.

He was breathing heavily, and it was obvious that his fair skin had turned red, which was the result of the bursting of capillaries.

Being under fifty times gravity will have a subtle effect on his body. Nothing can be seen in the short term, but it will be very obvious over time.

Activate [Field Medical Care], and the development speed blessing is converted into recovery blessing. The capillaries are repaired quickly, and in less than a minute, they are back to normal.

"It has almost reached the development speed before the decline." Li Ming was surprised after feeling it carefully.

Some time ago, after his development progress reached 30%, the development speed slowed down again.

According to his habit, if he developed for more than eighteen hours a day, it would be difficult to reach 1% in two days, and it would take three days.

But under the suppression of gravity, the development speed has almost returned to its previous level, reaching 0.6% to 0.7% per day.

"The improvement is almost doubled, is it that obvious?" Li Ming was a little skeptical. The effect of training under gravity suppression was so obvious, it should have been widely promoted.

He pondered for a moment and realized the logic of his idea.

The ability of living organisms to adapt to harsh environments is an instinct engraved in their genes, which is why gravity suppression can improve development efficiency.

But as they gradually adapt to this environment, this improvement is not so great. To maintain this gain, they can only continue to increase gravity, but the problem is that there is a limit to what a living organism can bear.

Just like the amount of water that can be discharged from a bucket is not determined by the highest board, but by the lowest board.

The fragile eye nerves and capillaries can withstand much lower pressure than bones, flesh and blood.

If it’s too high, you may really crush yourself to death.

Moreover, it also depends on an extremely important point, that is, the development potential of the living organism itself.

Not everyone can see such obvious effects as his, except for the first time try.

More importantly, the development speed is increased and will not be reduced due to the increase in gravity.

By using gravity to squeeze the potential of cells, one can indirectly achieve the effect of enhancing one's own development potential, and this effect is amplified by the speed of development.

Li Ming figured out what was going on and cheered up, "This is tailor-made for me. I have a [Field Doctor] who can constantly repair minor injuries caused by being in a gravity environment, and always keep myself at the standard of extreme gravity."

“Why didn’t I think of it before?” Li Ming muttered, then shook his head.

In the past, the level of life was relatively weak, and the gravity pressure it could withstand was also very low, so the effect was actually not that obvious.

[Magnetic Crystal Domain] was originally created because of the imaginary enemy Theo.

Its effect is very powerful and it is definitely not just for dealing with Theo, but Li Ming still feels a little painful.

But now, he discovered that it can also help increase development speed, which made him feel that it was worth the money.

"The only trouble is the consumption of physical strength. Fortunately, I can still use the [Magnetic Crystal Heavy Domain], otherwise I may not be able to hold on." Li Ming was in a good mood, so he decided to strike while the iron was hot and continue to develop the gene seeds.

Of course, he can choose not to activate its own [Super Energy Crystal Domain] feature to avoid extra consumption.

After a brief attempt, not only does the physical strength seem to be released like a flood, but even the mobilization of one's own energy will consume extra energy, which is really powerful.

While developing, I thought, “The next step is to empty that warehouse.”

"That is the Torch Organization's top priority. If it is really cleared out, they will definitely go crazy. No matter what evidence there is, they will arrest all of us at the first opportunity."

"Run away..." Li Ming shook his head: "We can find a chance to hide in the shadows and follow the people who are leaving here."

"But as soon as I cleared out the warehouse, they would seal it off."

"Besides, I want to borrow their power to fish in troubled waters. The metal energy in the core ruins alone is a huge fortune..."

"Many parties are mixed together..."

The core relics of the Ascender civilization gave him a unique advantage. It would be too arrogant to say that he regarded it as a sure thing, but he was not prepared to let go of this piece of meat at his fingertips.

"We still have to wait..." Li Ming suppressed his anxious thoughts and thought of another thing.

"It's time to wrap up Deyes's case. Whether Connit succeeds or fails, he will most likely meet Asmara. When he comes back, he will definitely investigate the leak of internal information."

"When it comes to taking the blame, there has to be no evidence to prove it." Li Ming's eyes were dim. He could see Deyes's resentful look clearly.

If it wasn't for the completion of the overall plan, he would have taken action right then.

…………

At the same time, in the beautifully decorated office, oil paintings of majestic faces hang on the reddish-brown walls.

"Still haven't found Serad?" Horndir frowned behind the large mahogany table.

The armored subordinate on the opposite side lowered his head and said, "No clues were found."

"Four or five months have passed. How could a B-level life form disappear without a trace?" Horndir said indifferently.

The subordinate lowered his head even more and said hesitantly: "Sir..."

"Just say whatever you want to say." Horndir looked unhappy.

"When we hired Serad, we had already penetrated his network of contacts in all aspects. We even had his Black Hole Network account under our control. However, during this period of time, we did not find any clues about him."

After a brief hesitation, the subordinate finally concluded, "He's probably dead."

Although he didn't like to hear the word "probably", Horndill crossed his hands, resting them on his chin, his eyes flickering.

"Since you chose to say it, there should be more than one inference." Horndir said lightly.

"In the Land of Stars, Serad followed our instructions, stole the [Flower of Casablanca], and then fled for a short time."

"The last place he appeared was the spaceship of the Judge Civilization. We previously speculated that Serad wanted to use the identity of the Judge Civilization to escape from the Land of Stars, but he was discovered and had no choice but to kill them and escape again."

"But if someone else killed those judges, and Serad was actually killed, then there is an explanation."

"Oh?" Horndill reacted slightly, sorted out the information in his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Suspect."

"Three." The subordinate quickly projected three virtual images and reported:

"Gray Eyes - Theo, he may have discovered our plan and knew that he could not get the Flower of Casablanca, so he killed him."

"The collector, Ulrich. The incident happened on his territory. Even if there are no other clues to support it, he is still a strong suspect."

"The Great Mechanic -- Qinglong. Those B-level life forms of the Judge had just come into contact with him before they died, and even spoke rudely to him."

"At first, he was not a big suspect, but judging by his actual combat capability and methods, his suspicion gradually increased. It is even possible that Serad, who was hiding among the judges, was discovered on the spot."

Horndir glanced at the portraits of the three people and pondered:

"Theo wants to become an S-class life form and take revenge on the advanced civilization that destroyed his home planet. If he gets the Casablanca Flower, the best option is to hide and become an S-class life form. It won't be him."

"The collector is a supernatural being. Holding the Casablanca Flower is not only useless, but also a hot potato. The best option is to sell it to Theo or someone else."

"As for this Azure Dragon..." He hesitated. There was too little information to analyze.

"When Theo comes out, tell him the news and see how he reacts." Horndil frowned, feeling very bad.

The Casablanca Flower is definitely a good thing. He didn't intend to really let Theo become an S-level life form. It was just a condition to tempt him.

So he sent someone to steal it back, but he didn't expect an accident to happen.

"Yes..." The subordinate nodded. Just as he was about to speak, there was a knock on the door. A man who looked like a butler came in and whispered:

"Master, Lord Reina is here."

Horndir's expression changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Leave through the side door, don't let him find you."

"Yes." The subordinate responded quickly.

Horndill stood up, straightened his collar, and left the office.
