My Endless Life.

Chapter 90 Material Issues
In fact, after careful thinking, Li Qi could guess that there were some problems with his death in his previous two lives.

In my first life, I grew up in a musical family. Although my daily routine was not very regular due to piano practice and band formation, I still ate and drank well.

In addition, young people's bodies recover quickly, so if they pay a little attention, it is unlikely that they will get any serious illness.

In the end, he died of liver cancer.

Although this is understandable, it is still a bit outrageous that he got liver cancer at such a young age.

Li Qi didn't think much about it at the time, he just felt that he was unlucky.

Looking back now, there might have been something wrong with the liver cancer at that time.

Not to mention the car accident in the second life, it came suddenly and the death was also sudden.

The only strange thing was that Li Qi was following traffic regulations and driving on a green light, but was hit by a large truck that ran a red light and died.

Although it can be said to be an accident, but considering the magic excess syndrome in this life, Li Qi always feels that the "accident" in the previous life may not be an accident.

Li Qi is likely to be targeted by the world.

"Twenty years old... Why is it twenty years old? And why can I be reincarnated?"

Now, Li Qi finally began to think about this problem.

Everyone has only one life, and after death there is nothing.

Li Qi was extremely lucky to be able to reincarnate once, and he could be reincarnated a second time, a third time... maybe even countless times!
This cannot be explained by coincidence at all. It can only be said that there is something in Li Qi that allows him to reincarnate infinitely... or under certain conditions, to reincarnate limitedly.

It was precisely this "trait" that made Li Qi targeted by the world and prevented him from living past the age of 20 in any of his lives.

This is of course just Li Qi's own guess, and the specific situation will depend on the next life.

If Li Qi has another life.

"Hmm? Major Li Qi, why are you sitting here?"

After coming out of the hospital, Li Qi was thinking about these things on a chair near the hospital. Suddenly, he heard someone calling him. He looked up and saw it was Borrent.

"Captain Borente?"

Li Qi looked at Borrent in surprise.

Borent came over, sat next to Li Qi and said to him:

"I heard you came to the hospital for a checkup, so I came to see you... Are you done with the checkup? How is your health?"

"Everything is fine. What is the matter with you, sir?"

Li Qi selectively skipped the topic and asked Borent.

Borent took out an exquisite gift box from his arms, handed it to Li Qi, and said to him:

"I suddenly remembered that Bailey asked me to give this to you. I originally wanted to give it to you when we were alone... but we probably don't have much time, so I took advantage of the time I still had and came to find you to give it to you."

"Sister Bailey gave it to me?"

Li Qi took the box from Borrent with some doubt and opened it.

An exquisite blue medal was placed in the middle of the box.

Borente smiled and explained:

"The family crest of the Webber family. Bailey said that if you don't mind, you can put it under her family name. Now the Webber family is under Bailey's control."

Holding the family medal in his hand, Li Qi felt mixed emotions.

He stroked the special pattern on the medal and suddenly asked:

"Sister Bailey, why are you so nice to me? Commander Borent, do you know?"

"It seems that Bailey didn't tell you..."

Borent looked at Li Qi in surprise, and after thinking for a while, he explained:

"Actually, this is not a secret. Bailey used to have a younger brother. Did you know that?"

"…have no idea."

Li Qi shook his head.

He had never heard Bailey mention this.

Borent continued: “Bailee’s brother, he’s about your age, looks a lot like you, and has a very good relationship with Bailey.

"It's a pity that he was born prematurely and his health was always poor. He died of illness when he was ten years old."

"Sister Bailey, do you think of me as her brother?"

"Aren't you calling her sister?"

Borent asked back, patting Li Qi on the shoulder:

"No matter what, Bailey's kindness to you is real. Although with your current status and reputation, you don't really need this family emblem, but... if possible, I still hope you can accept it."

"I see. Thank you, Commander Borent."

Li Qi held the badge tightly and thanked Borent.

Borent stood up and said:

"Okay, the stuff has been delivered. I won't bother you anymore, Major Li Qi. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye, Borent turned and left.

Li Qi opened his palm again, looked at the badge on his palm, and sighed after a long time.

Bailey once lost her own brother, which is why she is so kind to Li Qi, who looks very much like her brother.

Her previous attitude towards Li Qi on the battlefield was not because she was a shotacon, but because she saw the shadow of her brother in Li Qi.

But unfortunately, this 'new brother' Bailey found also had an incurable terminal illness. I don't know if Bailey can accept this in the future.

Perhaps, it was right for me to distance myself from Bailey?
Li Qi thought about it, sighed, put the badge away, stood up and left the hospital.

……

[Magic Excess Syndrome] is a special disease caused by an abnormal circulation of magic in the body, which leads to excessive accumulation of magic, eventually affecting the body and causing it to become irreversibly magicalized.

Throughout history, people who have had this disease have all ended up with similar outcomes.

Either the body is dissolved by the magic power, or the body turns into the purest magic power and dissipates.

Or some other special symptoms may appear.

What all the patients have in common is that they are all magical geniuses in some aspect and are relatively famous in history.

Therefore, this symptom is jokingly called "celebrity syndrome", meaning that only famous people will get it.

After extensive research, Li Qi guessed that his disease might not be congenital.

Maybe other people are born with it, but Li Qi is definitely not.

The fundamental reason why he got this disease was because he changed the operating state of his magic circuit, turning the magic circuit, which could only absorb magic power when it was actively running, into a passive ability.

Absorbing magic energy every moment, twenty-four hours a day, caused the body to undergo changes.

And because this change was related to magic, even if Li Qi used magic or superpowers to observe, he could not detect anything wrong.

In short, the fundamental reason why Li Qi got this terminal illness this time was because of himself.

But when Li Qi changed the operating state of the magic circuit, he had no way of knowing that his actions would lead to an accident.

And generally speaking, shouldn't this be the protagonist's golden finger?
Why does it become a deadly thing when it comes to Li Qi?

"Let's think of a way to suppress the activity of magic first and see if it works."

After complaining, Li Qi was thinking of a solution in his mind.

Just watching himself die is not Li Qi's style. Even when he had cancer in that life, Li Qi was trying his best to stay alive.

The same is true in this life.

Since the root cause of magic excess syndrome is the excessive magic in the body, Li Qi only needs to find a way to suppress the activity of this magic, and perhaps he can achieve the goal of prolonging his life.

For example, you can increase your life span from five years to ten, or even twenty or thirty years.

If you want to suppress the activity of magic power, you have to avoid one thing.

Magic device.

The magic device does have the effect of amplifying magic power, but at the same time it will also restrain the magic power in the magician's body, refining and transforming it.

So the next day, Li Qi started his work.

The job of deputy director of the technical department of the Magic Research Institute.

"Hello, Dr. Levi, I'm Li Qi."

In the Magical Research Institute, Li Qi met Eric Levi again.

Dr. Levi still looked the same, nothing had changed. When he saw Li Qi's hand, he shook it symbolically and said:

"Oh, hello, hello, Li Qi, right? I know you. I heard that you used England's technology to create a new type of orb?"

He seemed to have forgotten that Li Qi was the one who had tested his first version of the orb, but Li Qi didn't care.

He smiled and replied:
"To be precise, it should be called a new type of magic device. This is nothing. If it weren't for the inspiration from your magic orb, Dr. Levi, I wouldn't be able to create a new type of magic device."

"Magic device... um, that's what they call it in England, right? Never mind, whatever you call it, that new type... um, magic device, do you wear it? Or, can you make another one?"

Dr. Levi looked at Li Qi, his slightly cloudy eyes full of curiosity about unknown things.

Ever since Remus was assassinated that day, Li Qi has been wearing the magic device on his body.

But there is only one copy of this magic device in the world, and Li Qi will not hand it over easily.

So Li Qi said after thinking:

"Give me enough materials and I can make another one."

"Okay! Let's get started. What materials do you need?"

"One copy of the second generation orb you made earlier, some magic metal, and..."

Li Qi proudly listed more than a dozen materials.

Dr. Revi wrote them down one by one, and after a while he suddenly frowned:
"...Major Li Qi, some of the materials you have here...seem to be unique to England."

"?"

"Well, for example, this 'ink sand' and 'magic fish oil' are all alchemical products of England. They don't sell them to the public."

Dr. Levi picked out some materials and said to Li Qi with embarrassment.

Li Qi was stunned for a long time before he suddenly realized that most of the things he used in England seemed to be alchemical creations unique to the England School of Magic.

In other words, it was Professor Drien’s alchemical creation.

Other countries simply don't have these things.

Even if we want to import, there is no channel.

Therefore, if we want to create Li Qi's new magic device, we may need to research how to make those materials.

Or find alternatives to these materials.

Li Qi never expected that the first step in making a new magic device would be stuck here because of the materials.

Sure enough, no matter when, any new technology is developed, materials are an unavoidable hurdle.
