Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 68 68. Evening Sleep

Li Nuo realized that he was overthinking the matter of injecting the strengthening potion.

Since he had read too many science fiction and fantasy works before time travel, when he heard biochemical transformation and needle injection, the scene in the movie would appear in his mind:

He was stripped of his clothes and shoved into a glass jar filled with liquid. The medical personnel operated the injection device in the glass jar next to the mechanical panel, pierced a row of needles into his skin with a slap, and then he began to howl, roaring to meet the biochemically modified body.

But it's not like that.

At least not when the first booster was injected.

Accompanied by Sergeant Marrs, Li Nuo followed the normal medical examination process, measured his height, weight, blood pressure, heartbeat, checked his ear, nose and throat, and left blood and urine samples.

After he took a shower and changed into the white hospital clothes, Nurse Merlin pushed the medical trolley into his single compartment and began to prepare the syringes on the spot.

Fortified medicines are not readily available and require nurses to prepare on-site before injection, including the operation of mixing multiple medicines and powders.

Sergeant Mars looked at Merlin who was busy beside the medical cart, then turned to Li Nuo and said:

"Then I'll go back to the station first, Jarvis. After a few days, Sergeant Alvin will get the spoils, and I'll come back with the main force. Before the bad reaction disappears, you can stay here temporarily. In case Whatever the situation, you can tell Merlin, and she will let the medical department notify me."

"Okay, sir, don't forget my book." Li Nuo said while sitting on the bed.

"No problem, before I leave the fortress, I will put the book you asked for at the mouth of the medical department."

Sergeant Mars walked up to Merlin, whispered a few words next to Merlin's cheek, sprinkled a wave of dog food on Li Nuo, and then left the private room.

Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the syringe in Merlin's hand.

A light golden potion was being slowly poured into the glass tube of the syringe. It was the product of Merlin's mixing of various potions, and it was the strengthening potion that was about to be injected into Li Nuo's body.

Li Nuo looked at it with deconstruction technique.

It takes a full 3000 points of energy to deconstruct this thing 100%. It is indeed the crystallization of the biochemical mutation route and the stepping stone of the "Fist of the Empire".

"Merlin, is there any possibility that this strengthening potion will be cracked by illegal forces?" Li Nuo asked.

Merlin put the syringe aside, picked up the alcohol cotton and came to the bedside, motioning for Li Nuo to roll up his sleeve.

After thinking for a while, she dabbed alcohol on Li Nuo's arm and said:

"It shouldn't be cracked by illegal forces. Anyway, since I joined MI3, I have never heard of any illegal force or pharmaceutical group that cracked the formula of the strengthening potion. MI3 is still very cautious in this regard and keeps it secret. Measures were taken very carefully.”

She pointed to the medical cart:

"For example, myself. Don't look at me when I prepared the medicine on the spot just now. I was very skillful and didn't make any mistakes. But in fact, as a nurse, I don't know the names and effects of those medicines. I can only follow Military Situation 3 According to the operation manual distributed by the department, use the properties of the liquid medicine and the powder to identify them, and then follow the standardized operation process to mix them."

"It's so strict..." Li Nuo sighed.

"Yes. I have to push the empty bottle back later and store it in a locked room. There must be no empty bottle. Not even the residue of the potion can be left here."

After Merlin sterilized, he brought a syringe and pointed the needle at Li Nuo's arm.

After a brief sting, the pale golden potion was injected.

Merlin quickly packed the medical cart and said at the same time:

"Lie down. Usually within five minutes, you will feel sleepy. This sleep may last 24 hours. If you wake up, just pull the rope ring at the head of the bed, and the nurse on duty will come to check situation."

"Okay, Merlin, thank you very much." Li Nuo laid his legs flat and covered himself with a quilt.

"By the way, Jarvis, did your mission go well this time? Did you encounter any danger?" Merlin asked before leaving.

Li Nuo responded after thinking for half a second:

"There was no danger. We encountered a difficult enemy, but fortunately, the legion commander dispatched reinforcements in time. As soon as the reinforcements arrived, Mars and I withdrew from the tomb."

"Well, I'm always worried that Mars won't come back one day..." Merlin opened the door and left with the small cart.

Li Nuo raised his head, just in time to see the worry on Merlin's face.

Eh, this is impossible.

How can there be no danger in a war, let alone the enemy is the undead.

Li Nuo could only silently bless the couple.

However, judging from the relationship between Mars and Captain Murphia, Mars' personal safety should not be a big problem. After all, he has a copper whistle in his hand that can call Captain Murphia, and he can call for strong support at any time.

On the other hand, Li Nuo himself had to grasp more cards as soon as possible.

Thinking about the future plans in his heart, Li Nuo gradually felt his eyelids become heavy, and waves of drowsiness appeared in his mind.

He yawned, adjusted his comfortable sleeping position, and closed his eyes on the soft bed.

His consciousness began to sink infinitely, as if sliding into a bottomless abyss.

Just as he was about to fall asleep completely, a paragraph of text appeared in front of his eyes.

[System message: You have obtained a temporary effect with an unknown name because of the injection of the "first injection of strengthening potion". 】

Li Nuo felt that his state was very strange.

On the one hand, under the effect of the medicine, he fell into a sleep state, and there was darkness in front of him, only the system text was suspended in the air.

On the other hand, in a sleeping state, although he cannot control his limbs, he cannot respond to external stimuli in a timely manner.

but! His consciousness is sober!

When he dreamed of the succubus before, he called up the personal panel in the dream.

This time, the situation was the same as before.

It was as if he was awake at this time, not asleep, but just entered a dark area without the concept of time and space.

Li Nuo can think about what the "temporary effect with unknown name" is, or he can flip through his personal panel, see the word "temporary effect" on the status bar, and release deconstruction techniques on it.

This magical state similar to a lucid dream emerged after I obtained the "deconstructed core system".

It's amazing!

Is he asleep?

Still not asleep?

Li Nuo was perplexed, but he didn't intend to delve into it.

He casually threw a deconstruction technique to the "temporary effect" on the personal panel.

[System message: You are about to launch a deconstruction technique on the "temporary effect of unknown name". 】

[It is expected to consume 5 energy points to deconstruct this effect 100%. 】

[You currently have 15 energy points, are you sure you want to deconstruct? 】

Deconstructing "perception obstruction" only requires 1 energy point.

But this temporary effect requires 5 points.

Consumption increased to 5 times!

Li Nuo silently recited "confirmation and deconstruction" without hesitation.

Deconstruction is activated.

The trance feeling ignored the state of sleep, and flashed through Li Nuo's mind.

The system sends a message:

[Successful deconstruction! 】

[You have obtained the panel information of the temporary effect:]

【Name】Twilight Sleep

【Level】Level 1 (Level 15)

Affected by "Mutation Inhibitor", the strength level of "Twilight Sleep" has been reduced from level 15 to level 1.

As the dose of "Mutation Inhibitor" decays, the level of "Twilight Sleep" increases by 1 level every 24 hours, up to a maximum of 15.

【Type】mutation-like mutagen, mutation-like modulation formula

【Effect】

The "Twilight Sleep" test for you has begun.

Every 24 hours, Dusk Sleep gains +1 strength level, -2 your Toughness, and gains a non-lethal effect.

Affected by the "Mutation Deterioration Blocking Factor", when your "Toughness" attribute is about to return to zero, "Twilight Sleep" will automatically end, and your "Toughness" attribute will quickly return to normal.

At the same time, enter the reward settlement link.

The content of the reward is the character attribute.

The number of rewards is determined by the level at the end of "Twilight Sleep". The higher the level, the more attribute rewards you get.

【illustrate】

Your "Toughness" attribute base value is 11 points.

Affected by Level 1 "Twilight Sleep", the attribute of "Toughness" drops to 9 points.

The system predicts that after 5 days, the effect of "Twilight Sleep" will end. At that time, the intensity level will be level 5, and your "Toughness" attribute will be permanently +5.

It is estimated that after 3 minutes, the first effect brought by "Twilight Sleep" will officially take effect.

The effect is: Twilight Dreamland.

…

"Oh! I see! So that's what happened!"

Li Nuo suddenly realized.

The so-called duration of adverse reactions is the number of days required for the "toughness" attribute to drop to 0.

Like Mars whose adverse reaction lasted 9 days.

On the ninth day, his "toughness" attribute was about to return to zero, which triggered the automatic termination effect of "twilight sleep", so he cleared all the adverse reactions in a high fever.

To understand this, it is not difficult to come up with a calculation formula:

The number of days of adverse reactions = the basic value of the "toughness" attribute ÷2.

The calculation result is rounded down, which is the number of days that each person's adverse reaction will last.

Using this formula to invert, you will get a rough guess:

People with adverse reactions lasting more than 10 days each have a "toughness" attribute value of more than 20 points.

Furthermore, as long as one has an attribute value of "Toughness" of more than 20 points when injecting the first injection of the strengthening potion, one will definitely be able to be promoted to the third-tier "Fist of the Empire" in the future.

"Fist of the Empire" is an extraordinary route that focuses on the attribute of "toughness".

Li Nuo's "Toughness" attribute is only 11 points, which is lower than the average value of ordinary adults.

In all likelihood, he will not be able to advance to the third rank "Fist of the Empire" in the future.

But that's not a bad thing...

It never occurred to him to stay in the military all the time.

Not to mention repaying the huge debts of his previous life, he still has to be used as a tool man to do dangerous work that will die in a death storm if he is not careful.

This kind of life is not what he wants.

If you can't be a Tier 3 "Imperial Fist", then it's wrong, who cares.

Li Nuo curled his non-existent "mouth".

Just as he complained that his "toughness" attribute was too low, 3 minutes passed by.

The first effect of "Twilight Sleep" came.

Twilight Dreamland opens.

A faint light emerged from the darkness in front of him.

The light changed from weak to strong, illuminating his field of vision, like the morning light when the sun was just rising, but more like the afterglow of sunset at dusk.

Li Nuo took a closer look after adapting to the changing light, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated a few minutes.

The setting sun hangs low in the sky, and falls on the top of the mountains, releasing a vast glow, and the whole sky is as red as blood.

The beauty of the sunset was breathtaking, but Li Nuo couldn't express his admiration as if it was stuck in his throat.

All because, a huge figure was hung around the neck by a noose hanging from an infinite height in the dusk sky.

That figure towered into the sky, as if it could shatter the clouds with a single punch, and break through mountains and rivers with a single step.

However, he was hanged.

Died on a black lasso stretched from the depths of the universe.

Li Nuo raised his head and gazed into the distance, his gaze penetrated the fiery red clouds, but he still couldn't find the end of the black noose in the sky.

A strange mountain wind blew past.

The tall figure hanging in the air swayed with the wind.

A thunderous and majestic loud noise came from the figure's body, setting off a monstrous sound wave, blowing away all the floating clouds, and making the earth tremble.

After a full minute, the echo in the mountains gradually disappeared.

The earth has returned to calm, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and the setting sun remains the same.

What kind of dream is this?

Who is that man who was hanged in the air?

how does he look like? Why was he hanged?

Who hung him here?

Where did the noose come from?

What does this dream mean?

A series of question marks appeared in Li Nuo's mind.

He looked down at his body.

His torso and limbs were gone, and he was floating one meter above the ground in the form of a light golden ball of light.

He tried it.

In this strange dream, he can float freely.

The movement speed is about the same as the running speed of a normal human.

It is also possible to float upwards, and the speed remains the same.

The so-called Wangshan ran dead horse.

Don't look at the huge figure in the sky, as if it is right in front of you.

But in fact, taking the mountain range at the foot of the figure as a reference, the horizontal distance between Li Nuo and him is at least 20 kilometers. Moreover, the opponent's altitude should also be above 2,000 meters.

Despite such a long distance and height difference, that figure still occupies a small half of the sky, covering part of the sunset glow, which is enough to show how amazing his size is.

Anyway, Li Nuo can't estimate how huge he is for the time being.

"Anyway, I'll take a look at the mountains below the figure. That's the closest place to the figure, maybe I'll find something."

Li Nuo floated forward for a certain distance, and immediately realized that he forgot one thing.

Facing the direction of the figure, he silently said in his heart:

"Activate the deconstruction technique, the target is the figure who was hanged in the sky."

[System message: You are about to launch a deconstruction technique on the "unknown target". 】

[It is estimated that every 3 billion energy points consumed can increase the completion of deconstruction by 1%. 】

[You currently have 10 energy points. Are you sure to deconstruct? 】

[System reminder: Your energy value is too low, you may not be able to obtain accurate deconstruction results. 】

"I'm Throwing Lou! Only 300 billion energy points can be 100% deconstructed! What is this thing?"

Li Nuo repeatedly sighed towards the figure:

"Master, what do you do? Why are you hanged to death, and it takes me so much energy to deconstruct? Are you a dead god of creation?"

When Li Nuo thought of the passive effect of the deconstruction technique, his heart became hot.

"No! I have to find a way to hurt that figure, and see if I can deconstruct something useful by passive deconstruction. On a boss of this level, just explode something casually, and it will kill me. If it’s really not possible, I will stud him and use all my energy to deconstruct him before the dream is over. By the way, the duration of this dream must be limited, so I must speed up.”

Li Nuo called up the personal panel and looked at it.

Sure enough, a few lines of text appeared on the entry of "Twilight Sleep":

[It is estimated that after 23 hours and 55 minutes, the evening dream will end. You will be forced to wake up from your sleep with a new debuff. The system prediction is: moderate nausea. 】

"It's time to hurry up..."

Li Nuo buried his "head" and rushed towards the mountain range at the foot of the figure without saying a word.
