Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

At this moment, a breeze blew by, and a cherry blossom petal slowly fell in front of Kevin's eyes.

"..."

Kevin reached out to catch the petal. With the petal reflected in his eyes, he was silent for a long time. He gently tilted his hand and let it slowly fall.

"call……"

In the ward, after repeatedly confirming that the connection had been blocked, Gwen breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though he estimated that the other party would not be able to hurt him, he would still be nervous when some of his secrets were exposed and he was only at A-level in strength and was talking to Kevin, the strongest human being.

Moreover, being able to block this connection also allowed Gwen to put aside some of his worries -

Although life at the Destiny headquarters was fulfilling and wonderful, the need to be careful at all times inevitably made Gwyn a little mentally exhausted.

If there were another person who needed to be wary of mentally, Gwen felt that his mental state would probably be in trouble sooner or later.

Fortunately, things haven't gotten to the worst point yet.

After relaxing for a moment, Gwyn did not waste any more time, but opened his attribute panel.

Although Gwyn estimated that his golden finger should not be that bad, after all, no system elf told Gwyn that only he could see this thing.

Gwen was very worried. If this partially damaged system had become so broken that it could only project information onto his own retina, would Kevin, who shared the same vision, be able to see it as well?

Chapter 59 The Five Elements

Perhaps in the future, when he has enough power to ignore all threats, Gwyn will take the initiative to expose some system-related information in order to enhance the confidence of his allies.

But at least for now, Gwen does not want the secrets related to the system to be known to outsiders.

Therefore, apart from taking a quick glance and clicking on an upgrade when his vision was rapidly changing on the battlefield, Gwyn never opened his attribute panel again.

It was not until this time, after blocking all contact with Kevin, that Gwen was finally able to open the system with confidence.

And at the first sight, Gwen couldn't help but be overjoyed——

"Gwen——level 6

Strength - G278

Durability - F311

Dexterity - G211

Spirit - F323

Energy - D503

Energy system: None

Development ability: nourish the body with the soul, nourish the soul with the soul, embrace all directions, and be infinitely passionate

Optional: "Five Elements Mutual Generation"

The battle with Ganesa provided Gwyn with a total of thousands of attribute points after the upgrade, which was equivalent to Gwyn's training for one or two months, or even longer. It was certainly worth Gwyn's happiness.

What made Gwen even happier was the flashing light behind his name, indicating the level he could upgrade to.

By joining forces with Yulandel to defeat Ganesha, Gwyn has accumulated enough "great achievements" needed to upgrade again!

In addition, the newly emerged optional development capabilities also allowed Ge Wen to put aside his worries about having no development options.

"The five elements complement each other..."

While pondering this newly emerged ability in his mind, Gwen's gaze quietly moved upwards and landed on the "Ten Directions Containment" and "Infinite Heat" above, two abilities developed from the Earth Shadow Stone and the Fire Shadow Stone respectively.

Even though Gwyn had very limited knowledge of the Five Elements theory, he knew that "fire produces earth" among the Five Elements.

But... I clearly got the Hokage Stone at level 3, but the "Five Elements Generation" derived from "Fire Generation of Earth" only appeared now?

As doubts arose in his heart, several images suddenly flashed through Gwen's mind -

Beside him, the radiance of the two light and shadow stones echoed each other, gradually the fiery red color weakened, and the ochre color became darker, even the broken sword in his hand appeared with a faint ochre halo.

At just one glance, Gwyn recognized it. This was the scene of himself accumulating strength to save Yolande during the day.

Because Gwyn was focused on attacking at the time, he did not notice the changes in the light and shadow stone. Only his mental power silently recorded this scene, and it appeared in Gwyn's mind only at this time.

"Is it because I'm eager to save people that I've gained the recognition of the Light and Shadow Stone?

What is Otter Selection?

While complaining in his heart, Gwyn had already taken out the two light and shadow stones swiftly, holding one in each hand.

As expected, compared to the rough stone with a little heaviness and heat before, these two light and shadow stones now gave Gwyn a completely different feeling.

The two energies, one heavy and the other hot, appeared clearly in Gwyn's perception, as if he could touch them with just a raise of his hand, instead of being difficult to reach as usual as if there was a thick barrier between them.

As he obtained the two light and shadow stones, Gwyn could also feel some changes in the energy in his body.

Then, without Gwyn's active control, the energy in Gwyn's body automatically connected with the energy in the light and shadow stone, pulling the heavy and hot energy into his body.

!

Realizing this, Gwen frowned and immediately carefully controlled the two energies, making them move forward at a relatively slow speed. At the same time, he quickly clicked on the upgrade system to display the optional "Five Elements Mutual Generation".

Although he seemed to have achieved the coexistence of fire and earth during the day, allowing the two energies to coexist, this was in his own body after all, and Gwyn could not afford to be careless.

After a moment, under Gwen's careful control, the two energies coming from his left and right hands finally came into contact slowly.

In Gwyn's perception, the two energies, which were completely different in nature and even to some extent completely opposite, actually ignored the differences between each other and came into contact with each other naturally without any conflict.

Seeing this, Gwen finally breathed a sigh of relief and gradually increased the output of the two energies until he completely released them, allowing the two energies to intersect and flow throughout his body.

Gwen still remembered that Kevin said that the energy in the light and shadow stone affected his entire body, from body to soul.

As the two energies merged, Gwyn could clearly feel that the heavy earth-attribute power was gradually increasing in strength, while the corresponding hot fire-attribute power was weakening.

Obviously, under the principle of "fire gives birth to earth" among the five elements, part of the energy of fire is transformed into earth.

But Gwen did not show any joy at all——

If all five elements are present, then a stable cycle will naturally be formed under the mutual generation of the five elements.

But the problem is that Gwyn now only has the Earth Shadow Stone and the Fire Shadow Stone, and he is missing three of the five elements, so it is probably impossible to form a cycle.

Fortunately, with concern, Gwen used his mental power to carefully perceive and found several strands of energy in the body that was almost occupied by fire and earth attributes. They were different from the two, but different from each other, and were connected and growing rapidly.

"Is this... the Five Elements' mutual generation at work, using the existing fire and earth attributes to complement the other attributes and establish a cycle?"

While quickly analyzing the current situation in his mind, Gwen did not dare to relax for a moment. He carefully sensed the three energies and barely distinguished their respective attributes.

However, in Gwyn's perception, the gold attribute grew the fastest, followed by the water attribute, and the wood attribute could only barely exist and progressed slowly.

"It seems that overpowering earth and fire attributes are detrimental to the establishment of a cycle..."

Regarding this, Gwen also frowned and analyzed——

"The powerful earth attribute certainly accelerated the growth of the metal attribute, but the weak wood attribute was completely unable to keep up with the needs of the fire attribute, almost to the point where it could hardly survive..."

Analyzing in his mind, Gwen quickly mobilized his mental power, trying to adjust this cycle with external force.

However, perhaps because Gwyn's mental strength was not strong enough, or perhaps because the current five elements cycle was too short, Gwyn was almost unable to stop or slow down the absorption of the wood attribute by the fire attribute.

After repeated attempts failed, Gwen made up his mind and simply put the two Light and Shadow Stones back into the system backpack, cutting off the external support of the already powerful Fire and Earth attributes. At the same time, he continued to concentrate and go all out to adjust the energy in his body, striving to promote the growth of the three still weak attributes.

Gwyn had a hunch that if he could establish a stable circulation of the five elements in his body, it would be of great benefit to him.

Furthermore, Gwyn was also thinking about the ultimate power displayed by the unification of the five elements in the original world of the Light and Shadow Stone...

Chapter 60: The Earth is Kun, and a Gentleman Shoulder All Things with Virtue

That night, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

On the hospital bed, Gwen suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of fatigue, but not a bit of sleepiness.

For several hours, Gwyn devoted all his energy to balancing the five elements circulation in his body.

However, after more than a year, Gwen finally experienced the feeling that hard work might not always be rewarded.

The mental strength that had almost recovered was consumed again, but it still failed to revive the weak wood attribute.

Although the circulation of the five elements in Gwyn's body slowed down a lot after the connection with the two light and shadow stones was severed, Gwyn was finally able to interfere with it to a certain extent.

However, although the circulation speed has slowed down, it seems that because too many transformations have occurred before, the pressure of the fire attribute on the wood attribute has not stopped.

The slightest sign of growth of the Wood attribute is cut off by the Fire attribute like leeks, and there seems to be no future.

The nourished fire attribute continues to produce earth attribute, making the already powerful earth attribute even more intense.

"call……"

He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, then shook his head, feeling exhausted.

The current situation is that brute force cannot solve the problem, so we can only try to use our wits to overcome it.

But the problem is that Gwyn does not understand the traditional Chinese theory of the five elements, which is limited to the basic "wood produces fire, fire produces earth, earth produces metal, metal produces water, and water produces wood."

Even if he wanted to learn, he would need to find an excuse first because he was at the Mandate Headquarters, where he might be under surveillance and didn't want to show any abnormality...

Gwen tried to calm his irritable emotions, expanding his perception to compare the current situation with that of a few hours ago.

Although there was no way to display the strengths of the five attributes in a digital form, the practice of "Awakening the Nerves" allowed Gwyn to easily extract the previous perception results and compare them.

This helpless comparison made Gwen make a new discovery -

Compared to before, the current fire attribute conversion rate has become higher?

And the reason is... the earth attribute is still continuously generating the metal attribute, which supports the establishment of the entire cycle and requires the supplement of "fire generating earth".

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Gwen's mind -

“If we use a chemical reaction as an analogy, then in the cycle of the five elements, each attribute is both a reactant and a product.

Moreover, considering the properties of wood, this reaction can be considered a reversible reaction.

In this case, as long as the power of the earth attribute is increased, the transformation of the fire attribute will be slowed down, and its harvest of the wood attribute will be weakened to a certain extent...

Moreover, the so-called "ten directions embrace"... perhaps it also means "virtue embraces all things"?

Let the earth attribute serve as the foundation for this cycle..."

Thinking of this, Gwyn did not hesitate. He took out the Earth Shadow Stone that he had put away not long ago and absorbed the earth energy from it again.

It is worth mentioning that unlike the previous state where it could establish energy connection but seemed to have no reaction, the current light and shadow stone will emit a faint light after appearing in Gwyn's hands.

In order to make the light that could not be blocked by the quilt less glaring, Gwen had already turned on the bedside lamp above his head.

However, as Gwyn's Honkai Energy continued to flow into the Earth Shadow Stone and drew strong earth-attribute power from it, the light it emitted gradually became brighter.

If someone looks carefully, they can see something strange at a glance.

However, the person who was observing Gwyn at this time had not yet returned to the headquarters.

On the special plane returning to the headquarters, Otto, who had changed into a clean and tidy outfit, tapped his fingers on the armrest with a deep look in his eyes.

Although Raven, who was only A-level in strength, was not taken seriously by Otto, an A-level combat force that did not belong to Destiny was still interested in Ganesa, the emperor-level Honkai beast, and even dared to reach out.

What is hidden behind such a person is worthy of Otto's attention.

After a simple thought, Otto came up with two possibilities:

"Was it those radical executors of Anti-Entropy who did it?

Or... a relic of a previous civilization?"

Although part of the reason why the North American branch rebelled against independence was because they opposed Otto's use of Valkyries, who carried Honkai energy in their bodies, as the main force/consumables to fight Honkai, and advocated the use of machines represented by Titans to fight Honkai, but that is only the idea of conservatives today.

As for the so-called "radicals" who have joined in recent years, in Otto's view they are nothing more than a group of ambitious people and clowns.

This group of people do not have the persistence and ethics of those honest and lovely old friends. It is not surprising that they would produce an A-level product through unscrupulous human experiments.

However, compared to the "radicals" who are not worthy of being on the stage, Otto is more suspicious of the latter -

If the anti-entropy radicals really did cultivate an A-level, then the first thing those ambitious people would do would definitely not be to steal samples of Emperor-level Honkai beasts, but to test Destiny in more sensitive areas, or test the conservatives...

After all, the leader of Anti-Entropy has been missing for some time...

In contrast, if it was an organization created by other former civilization pioneers, a force that Otto had been looking for but had never found any trace of, it would not be surprising that it would use an A-level combat force to do such a thing.
