My Endless Life.

Chapter 138 The true identity of Crystal?
This time, the fog area stayed in the safe zone for longer than expected.

After Li Qi and Ronnie entered, they stayed there for three or four hours, and the fog area showed no signs of dissipating.

This proves that if the fog zone comes again twice at most, or once at least, Rubino City will be completely integrated with the fog zone.

The streets have lost their color, and the familiar buildings have become dilapidated.

Ronnie followed behind Li Qi, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery around him and clenched his fists.

"It's all because of the Light Chasing Society..."

His voice was trembling and he was gritting his teeth.

He completely changed from a sunny and cheerful boy to a gloomy character.

The murder of someone familiar is indeed enough to change a person's character, but Li Qi thought Ronnie would always maintain his sunny and cheerful personality.

After all, most of the protagonists are like this.

For example, a certain seventh generation, a certain new Four Emperors...the protagonists of traditional hot-blooded comics are all like this.

But Ronnie didn't seem to be.

This made Li Qi a little disappointed, but he could understand it. After all, reality and comics are always different.

During the walk in the foggy area, Li Qi had already told Ronnie about the Light Chasing Society.

He wouldn't be like Carol, who knew everything but kept hiding it from him.

Since Li Qi decided to train Ronnie and experiment with the special refining method he created on him, he would tell him everything.

Li Qi did not hide anything about the Light Chasing Society, the difference between the fog zone and the safe zone, and the making of the relics.

Well, except for one thing.

That is the fact that Emma is not dead yet.

After reaching a deal with Emma that day, Li Qi started to do part of the "work".

That is to alleviate the monsterization of Emma.

He replaced most of Emma's alienated parts with relic metal, just like Mirror Flower, and at the same time temporarily created an alchemical tool that cast the "suggestion spell" to allow Emma to maintain her humanity.

So now Emma is still alive.

And it's in this foggy area.

It's just that her appearance is... a little different from before.

But at least she's alive.

Li Qi didn't tell Ronnie this because of Emma's idea.

Emma didn't plan to meet Ronnie until she was completely restored to being a 'human'.

After all, Emma is half his student, so Li Qi should always respect her opinion.

Of course, wanting to test how far Ronnie could go when driven by hatred was also one of the reasons why Li Qi concealed the truth.

Listening to Ronnie's gritting of teeth, Li Qi said softly:
"I don't know much about the Light Chasing Society, but according to the intelligence I have, their headquarters should be located in the foggy area on the fourth floor."

"The fourth floor..."

"Yes, do you want to go?"

"Yes! Teacher, you will take me there, right?"

Ronnie answered without hesitation and then asked Li Qi.

Li Qi smiled and said:
"I will take you, but not now. You are still too weak."

"Teacher! I..."

Hearing what Li Qi said, Ronnie suddenly became anxious. He really wanted to say that he could become strong quickly, strong enough to compete with the people from the Light Chasing Society.

But before he could finish his words, he heard Li Qi say:

"In three days at most, I will follow the exploration team to the deeper fog area. If you want to follow, that is your only chance. But in three days... can you advance from the light fog level to the heavy fog level?"

"..."

Li Qi's question silenced Ronnie instantly.

Three days…

Let alone three days, even if he were given three months, he might not be able to pass the heavy fog level assessment.

After all, there is a residual fog level before the heavy fog level, and he is not like Li Qi, who has the strength to cross levels.

"No, right?"

"me……"

Ronnie stuttered and tried to say something, but Li Qi stopped him and continued:
"According to normal procedures, you are indeed not qualified to join the exploration team, but... nothing is absolute. I have a way to let you go with me, provided... you can endure the pain."

"I can!"

Ronnie answered without hesitation:
"As long as I can go to the foggy area and avenge Emma! I can do anything!"

"Even if I let you die?"

"Even if I die!!"

Ronnie growled.

He has done everything he can to avenge Emma.

Li Qi's smile deepened. He turned around and put his hand on Ronnie's shoulder and said:

"Very good. Then be prepared. The next training... may be very painful."

Looking at Li Qi's smile, even though Ronnie was prepared, he still couldn't help but shiver.

For a moment, Ronnie wondered if he had agreed too hastily.

……

The method that Li Qi taught Ronnie to become stronger was the "Qi Refining Method" that he improved based on the magic refining method.

Or to put it in a more mysterious way, it is the 'internal energy method'.

By constructing a special circuit in the body and operating it along a certain route, the total amount of Qi in the body can be increased in a special way without entering the fog area.

However, this method progresses slowly. Li Qi stayed in the safe zone for several years before he reached the peak of level one.

After going to the fog area several times, I finally succeeded in breaking through level 1 to level 2. But regardless of the progress, this is indeed a way to improve your Qi without entering the fog area.

The prerequisite is that you have a relic in your hand.

Ronnie is the only one among Professor Li Qi's students who has mastered Qi.

Originally, Li Qi planned to let Ronnie try to build a circuit to see if this method of refining energy was unique to him.

Now it’s just a matter of putting my ideas into action.

It has to be said that Ronnie is worthy of being a man favored by fate. Under Li Qi's high-pressure education and hatred for the Light Chasing Society, Ronnie mastered the circulation of Qi in just one day.

With the help of Li Qi, he successfully built a Qi circuit in the body.

Although there is only one channel, the total amount of air that can be transported is not much.

But he did succeed.

This also proves that Li Qi's idea is correct.

No matter which world he is in, as long as that world has special energy, he can use a similar method to circulate energy to improve himself.

However, perhaps due to the limitations of the world's rules, the construction of the circuit will be slightly different from the original circuit.

Simply put, this method still needs to be improved.

However, whether it is perfected or not is something to be done in the future. The second step that Li Qi has to take now is to teach Ronnie magic.

See if Ronnie can learn the magic and knight skills from his previous life.

In this regard, Ronnie's learning progress was extremely slow, or even nonexistent.

He had no idea what the "runes", "spells" and "circulation of qi" that Li Qi was talking about were.

But in order to be able to follow Li Qi into the foggy area, he forced himself to memorize it.

While he was studying painfully, time came to the third night.

……

After finishing his studies for the day, Ronnie answered Rumi's questions perfunctorily and fell into a deep sleep while lying on the bed.

Reacher's training methods were harsh.

Because there is only one circuit in his body, if he wants to quickly increase the total amount of qi in his body, he has to use other methods.

The method Li Qi thought of was the training method for knights in his previous life.

Train hard and squeeze the magic power in the body. In this way, you can gain a large amount of magic power in a short period of time.

Therefore, Ronnie is in pain every day now, because Li Qi really trains him to death.

Ronnie had undergone this kind of training from Li Qi before, but at that time Li Qi's healing magic was only level one, and he was very careful in his training.

Now that his healing magic has reached level two and he can cast more healing magic, he has no idea how to spell the word 'measure'.

That's why Ronnie fell asleep as soon as he came back.

After all, physical injuries can be healed by healing magic, but mental injuries... can only be healed by sleep.

Ronnie came here like this the past two days.

But today...things changed a little bit.

He saw 'Li Qi' again in his dream.

"Teacher, I'm not lazy!!!"

After seeing Li Qi in his dream, Ronnie almost reflexively put his hands on his head and shouted loudly.

After a few days of training, his gloomy personality seemed to have been erased a lot, and he regained some of his previous witty and brainless look.

At this moment, Ronnie was half squatting and trembling, thinking in despair that he would probably be unilaterally abused by the "puppet" beside the teacher next time.

But after holding his head and trembling for a while, Ronnie finally realized something.

"That's not right! I've already finished my training and should have gone back to my room to rest. Where is this?!"

He stood up instantly and looked at 'Li Qi' in front of him: "Are you...are you really a teacher?"

Looking at the other person's golden eyes that were exactly the same as Li Qi's, Ronnie began to become alert.

The other party opened his mouth slightly, then shook his head gently and whispered:

"I... just used the image of you that left the deepest impression in my mind..."

"what?"

What do you mean by "using the image that impressed me the most"? Isn't Emma the image that impressed me the most?!

Ronnie in the dream was very jumpy, but perhaps the training in the past few days made him smarter, or perhaps it was the so-called law of "blackening is ten times stronger", which made Ronnie's mind much clearer.

After experiencing the initial fear of Li Qi, Ronnie quickly reacted and asked the person in front of him with a cold face:
"Who are you? Are you from the Light Chasing Society?"

"The Light Chasing Society...? What is that...?"

The confused expression on the face of the man in front of him did not seem fake. He tilted his head and thought for a while, then replied:
"I don't know what the Light Chasing Society is. I only know that... I should be... dead."

"?!" Hearing what the other party said, Ronnie's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat: "What...what do you mean you are dead? You...you...are you a ghost?"

Yes, Ronnie is afraid of ghosts.

She is more afraid of ghosts than this girl Emma.

This may be because he heard too many ghost stories when he was a child. In short, he is not afraid of monsters in the foggy area, but he is afraid of invisible and intangible ghosts.

Ronnie thought he had encountered a ghost, but he didn't expect the other party's origin was even more magical than the ghost.

Just listen to the other party say:
"No... I mean, I should have become a relic."

As he spoke, his body in the image of Li Qi changed, and finally turned into a young man that Ronnie had never seen before.

The young man looked down at his palm and said, “
"That's right, I have become a relic."

That's what the boy said.

Ronnie also thought of something after hearing his words.

Teacher Li Qi told him that relics...are all made of life, and contain a person's life and soul.

If this is true, then the young man in front of him... could it be that he is the real body of his special relic crystal?

he,
Is it crystal?
