Chapter 10 Energy Control and Earth Sensing
In an instant, Huang Hong felt a rich and continuous energy surging from the ground beneath his feet, filling his limbs and bones. After flowing through his entire body, this energy returned to the ground through his feet, forming a complete cycle.
As this earth element energy circulated within his body, Huang Hong could vaguely sense that his body was spontaneously absorbing it, but the absorption efficiency was quite poor, perhaps less than one percent or even one-thousandth of the total energy flowing through his body.
Even so, Huang Hong felt that his strength and physical attributes were being strengthened little by little.
Huang Hong tried to mobilize the earth element energy within his body, and after much effort, he only managed to extract a wisp of it. He tried to control this wisp of energy to gather in his right hand, but it was like a headless fly, stumbling and unable to be controlled.
A few seconds later, the extracted energy disappeared into the body and was absorbed and digested.
Huang Hong was extremely excited about his first real encounter with the extraordinary, and he had a great time playing around for a full half hour before he finally calmed down.
At this moment, Huang Hong truly understood the difference between common quality and rare quality. Common quality items do not contain any extraordinary items, which can actually be seen from the attribute descriptions.
Huang Hong was able to make ordinary quality items have some extraordinary effects entirely thanks to the Myriad Enhancement.
Once items reach the rare quality level, they truly possess extraordinary attributes. From this level onwards, the power of the Myriad Enhancement can truly take effect!
Huang Hong glanced at the extraordinary panel. Although the attribute values had not changed yet, he could clearly feel that his strength and physique were getting stronger. As long as this continued for a period of time, he would definitely see the effect.
In addition, the accompanying earth element energy makes it quite remarkable, even though Huang Hong still has some minor issues with controlling it at this stage.
Huang Hong believed that once he mastered the earth element energy within his body, even if he couldn't unleash all sorts of cool spells like a noble mage, he would at least be considered a superhuman.
I looked up at the sky, and the sun was still high in the sky.
Eight or nine hours have passed since the incident occurred. During this time, Huang Hong has either been fighting or on his way to fight. Although he has taken breaks occasionally, he is now physically and mentally exhausted.
Under these circumstances, it is obviously impossible to directly enter the city.
If Zhuge Ping's prediction is correct, Anyue City is now a den of dragons and tigers, and entering it will likely lead to an even more severe battle.
Therefore, Huang Hong prepared to conserve his energy before setting off again.
The village where Huang Hong is currently located is called Xiaoguantun. There is no one in the village, and it is in a mess everywhere.
Huang Hong randomly found a courtyard that wasn't closed, locked the iron gate, and without going inside, simply lay down on the ground in the courtyard.
Just as he had expected, lying on the ground not only did he feel no discomfort, but he also felt a sense of comfort, and more earth element energy flowed into his body.
Unbeknownst to him, Huang Hong drifted off to sleep. A faint, earthy yellow halo enveloped him, nourishing and comforting him while also partially masking his aura.
After an unknown amount of time, Huang Hong, who was asleep, suddenly sensed something amiss, like ripples appearing on the surface of a calm lake, which jolted him awake.
Huang Hong got up and looked around, listening to the sounds around him, but he did not notice anything unusual.
After thinking for a moment, Huang Hong suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He lay down again, adjusted his breathing, and calmed his mind.
Gradually, he seemed to grasp the pulse of the earth and sensed the 'ripples' that broke the calm once again.
Huang Hong got up, switched the loading item to a drone, and flew towards the direction he sensed. Before long, he saw a goblin wandering aimlessly in the village, about eight or nine hundred meters away from him.
This discovery, along with the feeling of grasping the earth's veins, immediately made Huang Hong realize that the enhancements gained after loading items were far more than what was described in the attribute descriptions.
Huang Hong did not immediately deal with the goblin, but instead used it to conduct tests and calculate the sensing range of the earth's veins, which was about one kilometer from him.
Although he can only activate this ability when he is lying on the ground and relaxed, it is still another means of investigation.
After all, while drones can conduct high-altitude observations, they are powerless if there are obstructions, such as when trying to find out what's happening inside a house.
The Earth Vein Sensing is different; it can sense monsters as long as they are standing on the ground, regardless of whether there are any obstructions.
After completing the test, the goblin also contributed its last value, transforming into source energy.
Huang Hong glanced at the time and realized that he had slept for about six hours.
To be honest, he didn't really want to die like this, since the environment was too dangerous.
However, it now seems like a blessing in disguise. Even in his dormant state, he can still activate the earth's energy channels to sense changes in the surrounding environment, which greatly improves his safety.
Feeling refreshed, Huang Hong ate some more food and set off again.
Perhaps due to prolonged exposure to earth elemental energy, Huang Hong found himself becoming more adept at controlling the earth elemental energy within his body.
On the way, Huang Hong also took the time to test the ability of the [Elemental Core (Earth)] to create monsters. It wasn't completely useless, but it was still quite lackluster.
[Elemental Core (Earth)] Upon contact with the earth, it will automatically absorb earth-related substances to form the monster's body.
In the beginning, because the energy contained in the [Elemental Core (Earth)] was limited, the amount of matter it could absorb was also quite small. The [Elemental Core (Earth)] needed to continuously release elemental energy to assimilate the absorbed matter in order to gradually increase the amount of matter it could absorb.
After a quick calculation, Huang Hong realized that it would take about half a day to reach the level of the previous mud monster, which was really of little use to him.
Leaving the village, the first thing you see is rows of apartment buildings in the distance, and a gas station in the middle of the road.
Huang Hong used drones and the Earth Vein to explore in turn, determining the number and distribution of monsters in the gas station.
Next, relying on his overwhelming intelligence capabilities, Huang Hong spent an hour eliminating the monsters in and around the gas station one by one.
After dealing with the monster, Huang Hong arrived at the gas station's supermarket. It was clear that the place had been looted, but there were still quite a few supplies left.
Huang Hong didn't stand on ceremony. He used some of the energy to replenish his strength and then put the rest into his pack.
Continuing onward, they would reach the city center, but Huang Hong didn't rush forward. Instead, he arrived at the main entrance of the gas station, where a colossal five-meter-tall object stood. It was a giant decorative piece made up of various mechanical parts, shaped like... Bumblebee!
Although it's a super-poor youth version, the original is still a Transformer. If it could be enhanced, Huang Hong couldn't even imagine what kind of abilities it would gain after being upgraded.
With hopeful eyes, Huang Hong placed his hand on it.
