Zerg: An incredible way to survive

A hollow wooden tea table, inside which is a pure black stone of about the same size as the table.

I put these things in a private room in the small restaurant, and often brought some friends here to use that table.

When I got inside the store, I greeted the elderly couple and went straight to the private room.

After opening the door of this private room, you can clearly see the table placed in the middle of the room.

However, this table is just a purpose, not my important asset. The most important asset is the crystal that has been brewing for who knows how long underground.

A few years ago, when I was being chased by someone, I accidentally came here, to this old town.

At that time, because of his strong strength, he temporarily hid in this abandoned house.

When I was outside the house, I felt that the energy here was very strong. When I entered the room, I found that the magic power was almost liquid.

Then I found the source of it all, a magical spring.

At that time, I absorbed most of the overflowing magic power and did not let my vision spread outward. I hurriedly sealed the underground spring to prevent it from overflowing again.

Later, after making inquiries from many sources, I found out that the houses here were not for sale, so I thought of a way to open a store here. I invested money to build a store, let the veterans come here to work, and share most of the profits with them.

But I don’t care about the little money they earn, I only care about that spring.

If there was such a spring in ancient times, one could basically establish a sect, but how could such a thing as a pie in the sky possibly happen?

This area was developed by the Los Angeles government itself. How could they not know that there is a spring here?

Although I had already realized something was wrong at that time, facing such huge profits, I had no choice but to take the risk, so I bought the store according to the previous plan and recruited two veterans to open a store here.

And I also invite some friends to come and support me from time to time in my own name.

To be honest, the cooking skills of this couple are pretty good, but they can only cook some home cooking. If they learn a little, they will be able to make some meals that are comparable to those in big restaurants.

I tiptoed to the door and took a quick glance at the scene outside.

Although it is already July, it does not feel hot in this city.

It was around six in the morning and there were already quite a few customers sitting in their store, but the two men were so busy that they had no time to pay attention to me.

I looked again and saw people sitting at those tables, talking and laughing.

These people should be nearby neighbors who have fought in the battlefield together, so most of them seem to be very familiar with each other. Most of them sit at the same dining table, waiting for the two men to serve them breakfast.

But when I glanced at them, I always felt that they were a little weird. Although they seemed to be chatting with each other, I always felt that their attention was not on appreciating each other, but on me.

Their eyes were directed towards me intentionally or unintentionally.

This didn't look like surveillance so much as a provocation.

I don't know the interpersonal relationships of these people, but I always have a bad feeling.

My feelings are usually pretty accurate.

So the necessary defensive measures still had to be taken. First, a magic was set up to block the surrounding perception, then a formation was set up to prevent the leakage of magic power, and finally, the room was reinforced with one's own magic power to prevent the house from collapsing when the ground was dug up.

After making these preparations, I glanced towards the crack in the door again and saw that they were still the same as before, provoking me intentionally or unintentionally.

After looking at it for a while, I felt it was boring, so I started digging.

First, pry up the surrounding floor tiles, and then dig up the soil buried underneath.

These things didn't take up much of my time because I had the ring.

Although he is usually silly, he becomes smart when discussing things related to magic.

And now I am using its magic power to dig the ground, because I cannot use magic normally myself.

Soon I dug up the hard crystal.

However, this crystal is not as crystal clear as the ones I got before. Instead, it has a slight blue tint, and the color looks more like the sea.

However, this piece of crystal is much larger than I imagined, which is completely different from my previous expectations. The space I reserved for it is also filled with crystal, and the hardness of the crystal is beyond my previous understanding.

I brought the tools to dig out this crystal, but it seems that I can't shake it.

But this is not my entire method. This crystal is made up of high-purity magic power, so I only need to destroy part of its structure, just like before.

But this time, the other side must form its own circuit so that the energy contained in the crystal will not dissipate quickly.

This is a very difficult task, which requires the operator to have a very high degree of precision in controlling the energy. However, the Zerg seem to be best at this kind of thing. After all, based on the magic and talismans passed down in their tradition, one can imagine how difficult it is to create them.

Although I don't have that much confidence in myself, I am very confident in the Zerg. Things that I didn't dare to do before, I will try them now. If I fail in the end, the worst that can happen is that I will just absorb them all.

Place your hand on the crystal and begin to feel the flow of magic in the crystal, then nibble away at that magic to change its cycle, allowing another part to become a new individual.

But this process was not very smooth. The magic power contained in this crystal was more than I had imagined. It was simply incomparable to the crystals I had made before. This resulted in the magic power that I had just absorbed being instantly filled by the surrounding circuits.

This is really troublesome. I can only increase my absorption capacity to offset the added magic power.

After absorbing a large amount of magic power, the most dangerous thing I expected did not happen.

I originally thought that the Zerg couldn't use magic, so there was no need to increase their magic power. But I was wrong. The Zerg's body was like a bottomless pit. No matter how much magic power it absorbed, it would not have a sense of fullness. It even felt a little dissatisfied?
