Li Nuo uses "him" to refer to the giant in the sky, which is a bit inaccurate.
The giant had no normal human physiological characteristics.
At least judging from the appearance of the body, this giant has no such things as "handles" or "headlights".
The corresponding body parts were either covered in dirty blood or bare.
Li Nuo didn't care much about the giant's gender.
The focus of his attention was on the wound on the giant's head.
The skin and flesh in that area were rolled up, dripping with blood, and pierced vertically by black hooks.
Every time the giant screamed, he would twist his head, aggravating his injuries. The black hook will scrape the skin on the edge of the wound like a file, grinding out a lot of dirty blood and broken flesh.
This sight made Li Nuo tremble with fear, but he had to force himself to stare closely at the giant's wound.
Because there are many bright red, white, green, and light blue extraordinary properties near the wound.
After the black hook squeezed the wound, these things emerged from the giant's subcutaneous tissue and stuck to the surface of the skin.
But the worst thing is that the black hook will pollute these extraordinary characteristics at an extremely fast speed, turning them into that kind of mixed-colored things, which is the "Extraordinary Characteristic: Chaos Mutation".
Li Nuo observed these details when he flew to the giant's chest.
Faced with the personal attribute rewards that were so close at hand, he did not immediately continue to take off and snatch the clean extraordinary characteristics from the "hands" of the black hook.
All because that black hook is not made of metal, nor is it a dead object.
Li Nuo saw clearly now.
That thing was a dark tentacle, the surface was covered with swollen cells, greasy and sticky.
When the sun shines on it, it will reflect the light like oil, which is easily reminiscent of asphalt that has not yet dried.
This hook-like black tentacle is alive.
It opens and shrinks regularly, as if it is breathing or sucking food from the giant's body.
The swollen cells on its surface would shake from time to time, cracking a small slit, revealing a dark green eyeball.
The eyeballs rotate slightly, secreting dark green mucus that emits poisonous mist.
The mucus dripped on the giant's skin, "burned" it into blisters, corroded the surface, and seeped into the giant's blood vessels and subcutaneous tissue.
All the extraordinary properties passing by along the way will be filthy by this slime.
When Li Nuo saw this scene, he felt his brows jump sharply.
If he really planned to touch the black tentacles, he doubted whether he could survive.
It is possible that he would die immediately just from contact with the secretions of the tumor cells.
"It seems that the difficulty of this place is too high for me. It is not something I can do at my level."
Li Nuo stood on one of the giant's chest hairs, looking down at the mountains and clouds below, his eyes falling on the smoke pillars:
"Perhaps the meaning of this dusk dream lies in the large group of extraordinary characteristics spit out by the giant. As long as you are smart enough and act quickly enough, you can rescue the extraordinary characteristics that have not been completely corroded from the pool of blood.
"Such as flying into the sky, observing the giant's wounds at close range, or trying to attack the black tentacles. These behaviors should be potential crises in the dusk dream. As long as you don't seek death, the crisis will not be triggered, and you can end in the dream smoothly. Later, wake up from bed."
Li Nuo thought to himself while changing his perspective and looking up into the sky.
A large number of illegal characteristics were right in front of him, but due to the terrifying image of the black tentacles and the strong corrosiveness of the swollen cell secretions, he could not take another step forward and could only watch the extraordinary characteristics being defiled.
"Hey, it feels uncomfortable..."
Li Nuo sighed secretly and searched carefully around the wound.
He was looking for a special variegated extraordinary quality.
While standing on his chest hair and observing the wound, he concluded a deconstruction rule:
When the deconstruction technique deconstructs extraordinary characteristics, it determines the energy consumption based on the size and color complexity of the target.
The smaller the size of the extraordinary characteristic, the lower the energy requirement.
The color tends to be single, and the energy requirements will also be reduced.
As long as he could find a variegated Beyonder Character that was only as big as a fist and not very complicated in color, Li Nuo could still afford the cost of deconstructing it.
So, why do we have to keep an eye on the variegated extraordinary characteristics?
Why not check out the extraordinary properties of other solid colors?
the reason is simple.
Li Nuo discovered:
After the secretions of the swollen cells contaminate the extraordinary characteristics of the pure color, the secretions that seem to have self-awareness will spit out the variegated secretions in the body and squirm towards the next mass of pure color extraordinary characteristics.
This seems to be a kind of eating behavior - the secretions of tumor cells with a mucus appearance regard the pure-colored Beyonder properties as food, and the variegated Beyonder properties as their excretion.
It is obvious that these tumor cell secretions do not have the habit of eating their own excrement.
After they excreted the variegated Extraordinary Characteristics from their bodies, they ignored them and would only circle around the Pure Color Extraordinary Characteristics.
If Li Nuo really wanted to take something away from this giant, he could only try to avoid the swollen cell secretions and regard the variegated extraordinary characteristics as his goal.
Otherwise, it will conflict with the secretions of tumor cells, causing uncontrollable consequences.
Time passed in careful search.
In the blink of an eye, the duration of the dusk dream dropped to 10 minutes.
Li Nuo glanced at the countdown on his personal panel, but he didn't feel anxious.
He is a contented optimist.
I have gained enough from this twilight dream, there is no need to pursue more.
Being able to obtain the appropriate variegated extraordinary characteristics is indeed a beautiful thing and can be used as a bonus.
If you can't get it...
Then you can't get it.
Just when Li Nuo was calming down, a swollen cell secretion squirming on the giant's chin discharged a small group of variegated extraordinary characteristics.
The size and color completely met all the standards set by Li Nuo.
Li Nuo glanced at the countdown.
1 minute left.
It's definitely too late to leave now.
"Both feet" stepped on the chest hair, bending it. Li Nuo used the elasticity of the chest hair to eject himself and fly straight into the sky.
During the flight, his eyes locked on the small group of variegated extraordinary characteristics and released the deconstruction technique.
[System message: You are about to activate the deconstruction technique on "Extraordinary Characteristics: Chaos Mutation (Level 15)". 】
[It is expected to consume 15 energy points to 100% deconstruct the target. 】
[You currently have 24 energy points, are you sure to proceed with the structure? 】
"Well, sure enough, after the volume of the variegated Extraordinary Characteristics is reduced to the size of a fist, the energy required is very, very little. The variegated Extraordinary Characteristics of this level should be like 'rat shit' in the eyes of swollen cell secretions... "
Li Nuo recited silently in his heart:
"Confirmed for deconstruction."
Li Nuo's flying posture was slightly out of shape, and then returned to normal after a brief trance.
[Deconstruction successful! 】

…
"Eh? So this is what the so-called chaotic mutation is all about.
“The value of a certain attribute is deducted and added to another attribute, or the value is subjected to permanent negative effects in exchange for a substantial increase in a single attribute.
"No matter which direction the random mutation goes, I can't bear the price. Then why do I need this thing? Why do I have to make myself inhuman and ghost-like just for those few personal attributes."
Li Nuo stopped and stopped flying upward.
With about 20 seconds left, the twilight dream is about to end.
The giant's next cry also appeared at this point in time.
Li Nuo was now at the giant's neck.
Before the giant screams, there is a relatively obvious inhalation movement, and his neck will expand slightly.
Li Nuo can now see this detail.
According to his estimation, the giant's cry should occur simultaneously at the moment the dream ends.
Seeing that he was about to feel the giant's scream at close range, Li Nuo immediately pounced on the back of the giant's neck and fixed himself on a hair.
The giant inhaled sharply, and the air rolled back and merged into his mouth and nose.
Li Nuo held on to the hair to prevent it from being sucked into the giant's mouth.
There are 5 seconds left in the countdown to Dusk Dreamland.
5.
4.
3.
2.
In the last two seconds, a huge roar exploded from the giant's mouth, and the ferocious sound waves attacked everything around him indiscriminately.
The black tentacles tightened their lines at this moment, closing their swollen cells tightly.
The secretions of the tumor cells are bombarded and cut by sound waves, and the invisible air knife grinds them into powder.
Those extraordinary characteristics that stayed on the surface of the giant, regardless of whether they were tainted by the black tentacles, were all shattered by the giant's screams, turned into dust, moved by the wind, and scattered to the mountains and forests below.
This was the first time Li Nuo saw these subtleties.
When the giant screamed before, he always stayed on the ground. Who would have thought that the mournful sound waves could be so powerful.
The tearing pain spread all over his body in an instant, as if there were countless sharp bayonets piercing his body at the same time.
Just when his consciousness was about to be completely overwhelmed by the ocean-like pain, a system message pulled him back from the brink of collapse:
【warn! You are suffering soul damage! 】
["Soul Shield" can resist such damage! 】
Li Nuo's thoughts flashed like lightning.
Only 0.1 seconds after the system message appeared, he sketched the spell blueprint of "Soul Shield" in his mind.
A duck-egg-like blue ellipsoid covered his body!
Only then did Li Nuo realize that he had been acting in the form of his soul in this dream!
[You spent 0.1 points of soul strength and 1 point of energy to cast "Soul Shield"! 】
[The shield can resist 4 attacks! 】
【warn! The shield is shattered! 】
The blue ellipsoid disintegrated in the sound waves and wind blades, turning into countless tiny sequins that dissipated in the wind.
Li Nuo's thinking exploded at an unprecedented speed, and he once again sketched the spell blueprint and cast a new soul shield.
As soon as the blue ellipsoid appeared, it immediately collapsed.
Fortunately, the dream is over.
The violent wind suddenly stopped, the sound waves disappeared, the endless rays of light and the dazzling sunset returned to darkness, and the giant and black tentacles disappeared.
There was only darkness in front of Li Nuo's eyes.
But soon, the gurgling sound of the medical cart's wheels passed through the door panel of the single cubicle, penetrated into his ears, and woke him up from his deep sleep.
Li Nuo opened his eyes, looked through the window beside the bed, and saw the dimly lit clouds.
The hospital's unique smell of disinfectant lingered on the tip of his nose.
The faint sounds of conversations between nurses and patients next door could be heard.
The crisp sound of the nurse breaking the ampoule sounded like the vibration of a piano string.
All this is far more real than a twilight dream.
Li Nuo breathed a long sigh of relief, sat up from the bed and leaned against the wall.
The two seconds before the dream ended were so thrilling. He was almost killed by the giant's scream.
Fortunately, fortunately, he had the "Soul Shield" in hand, otherwise he would have ended up in a twilight dream.
Now that you survived without any danger, have you obtained any deconstruction results?
Sound waves and air blades are caused by giants, so it stands to reason that the results of passive deconstruction should also be related to giants, right?
Li Nuo called up the system information and took a look, a light of joy burst out in his eyes!
[Passive deconstruction activates! 】
[Your degree of completion of deconstruction of the "unknown object" has increased from 0% to 0.08%! 】
[You have obtained the following deconstruction results:]
["Twilight Giant Soul Casting: Basics", completeness 12.5%. 】
"Twilight Giant...it turns out that the giant's name is this."
A scene from a dusk dream flashed before Li Nuo's eyes.
It seemed as if a giant was hanging in the eternal dusk, and the black tentacles hanging from the endless heights were obviously foreign objects.
I really don’t know where these two things came from, and how the Twilight Giant got entangled in the black tentacles.
Li Nuo temporarily put aside his thoughts about the dream and clicked on "Soul Casting".
After looking at it carefully, Li Nuo nodded slowly, his eyes flashing with joy that he tried to suppress.
This time, he made a lot of money!
The contents of "Soul Casting Technique" are recorded in the words of the Twilight Giant.
Although Li Nuo has never learned this language, he can easily understand it. This is a credit to deconstruction.
The so-called "soul casting technique" is actually a method of increasing the strength and basic attributes of the soul by tempering the body.
As long as you follow the training methods in the book and exercise your body consistently, you will be able to achieve a double increase in soul strength and basic attributes in the process.
This is a hard work and requires a lot of time.
What Li Nuo got was the basic chapter, and its completeness was only 12.5%, missing a lot of important content.
For example, the book mentioned that taking specific drugs and mutant materials during exercise can make training more effective with half the effort.
But unfortunately, the details about drugs and mutation materials are missing.
The content presented in the book is all about the technical essentials and movement breakdown of physical exercise.
From breathing methods, force exertion methods, to movement trajectories and muscle control methods, etc., everything is covered, which is enough to guide newbies to get started.
Li Nuo looked at the single cubicle where he was, and shook his head helplessly:
"If I could have my own private space, I would definitely be able to practice the Twilight Giant's "Soul Casting" every day, but now... eh, I'd better endure it..."
