"Xiao An, don't worry, there are still plenty of toys, don't worry..."
At the scene where another "corpse" turned into light, Lu Pingan pulled the tentacles that still wanted to whip the corpse, trying to appease its bloodthirsty desire.
Xiao An, a second-level magic plant, is a special individual with twisted poisonous beards on Lu Ping'an.
Originally, it would only convey to Lu Ping An a bunch of bloodthirsty impulses of tearing, hunting, and pulling. Lu Ping An's "listening life" could only listen and induce, and it was quite difficult to tame it.
Most of the tentacle attacks actually rely on Xiao An's attack instinct, so they appear simple and monotonous.
But now, with the "life resonance", Lu Ping An can also transmit more detailed and complex instructions to it.
Judging from the current results, it directly makes the original templated attack method more dexterous and agile, and is closer to the attack style of Senior Sister Hua.
This was originally the fatal weakness of the magic plant technique. After all, while the magic plant is not afraid of pain, it also has almost no tactile feedback, making it impossible to operate it delicately.
Now being "used" by Lu Ping'an, it has become a "tool" in his hands, but it is more refined and precise.
But along with it, there are also some small problems that need to be solved urgently.
"...I know it's hard for you to have no nourishment of flesh and blood, but wait a moment, and I'll take you to have a big meal after we all go out..."
Obviously Mo Zhi cannot understand the words, but the "life resonance" conveys the ideas hidden in the words.
The tentacle also gently touched the back of Lu Ping'an's hand, expressing its willingness to be satisfied... The newly born magic plant is actually very satisfied. Survival is the only pursuit, as long as it is well fed.
Xiao An is currently the only magic plant that can "communicate", and he is also the oldest one.
It was also the first fusion magic plant in the Secret Realm of the Forest that day, and the only lucky one among that batch to grow to this day.
Lu Ping'an spent a lot of resources and energy on it, and even made a second "investment" (the only successful experimental product), but it absorbed the life mantra and further evolution seemed to have occurred, but it was still only a level 2 magic plant. .
However, its shape has been distorted and mutated, the individual has become larger, and the tentacles regenerate and extend faster.
When fully spread out, it is four to five meters high and can cover a small room from top to bottom.
To put it bluntly, it feels like the boss at the end of some biochemical horror movies.
But at the cost, the toxicity derived from poison ivy is also significantly reduced, seemingly diluted by the more intense "regeneration" creature mod.
"tyrannical."
Another round of explosions occurred, but this time, Lu Ping'an, who was using "Xiao'an", subconsciously guided and controlled the extended tentacles.
Under the influence of the resonance of life, the magic plants became his derivative limbs and were under his command.
It's still a full-screen crazy attack, but Lu Ping'an only needs to direct one or two of them to whip accurately, which can greatly increase the threat and make the opponent very uncomfortable.
"......asshole!"
In order to avoid the whip that occupied the upper half of the space, the opponent suddenly rolled like a lazy ass, rolled a few times, and then disappeared on the spot.
This scene made Lu Ping'an stunned for a moment. This familiar feeling of spatial fluctuation...
"Shuchi? Can you still use it like this?"
It's true that he learned a trick, but Lu Ping'an really doesn't want to use it one day.
At the same time, he vaguely felt the space fluctuation behind him.
The comprehensive improvement of physical hardware has made the passive ability of "spatial perception" more useful.
But he still didn't move. Instead, he had time to mutter a few words.
"This kid's 'Shukuchi' isn't very good at it. Not only does it make a lot of noise when tearing apart space, it's actually also slow..."
"break!"
The "child" suddenly appeared in the rear left corner and completed his attack.
But Lu Ping'an just turned his head and looked at him with a subtle expression.
"...Don't your hands hurt? Didn't you collect my information?"
The unlucky melee fighter didn't even have time to withdraw his right fist from the "spikes".
That constipated look on his face must be very painful.
The next moment, blood spurted out, and he turned into light and left without even leaving any last words.
And Lu Pingan also knew that what he said was sarcastic. When the war has reached this point, many ordinary weapons can no longer hold on and are directly reimbursed. Not everyone has quasi-polluting weapons and taboo weapons.
Since he only knows how to fight in close combat and must fight in close combat, he has no choice but to fight with his bare hands.
On another level, biological resonance also speeds up the laying speed and accuracy of the "Cactus Armor", and the opponent's reaction is already slow.
In particular, the improvement in accuracy not only makes the thorns in "key parts" denser and the explosion of magic plants more concentrated, but also prevents Lu Ping'an from inserting a few thorns every time he uses it, as before.
"The Tentacle King has won seven games in a row, right? Among the remaining people, he is the only first-order one? I don't believe he is first-order anyway."
"Maybe not the only one, but there should only be single-digit first-level people. Among the remaining people, he should also be the most troublesome group. So far, he has not been completely defeated, which also means that he has not revealed all his trump cards. ., he might be a water ghost once and drag a ruthless person down..."
For peers at this stage who often only have one profession and one or two abilities, Lu Ping'an, who only has only the first level, is already a complete monster.
And for the talented second-level professionals among his peers, he is also the most difficult kind of "balanced person" and "all-rounder" to deal with.
He has too many methods. He has explosive magic plants at long range, tentacles at mid-range, and good hand-to-hand combat ability at close range. He has several powerful methods on offense and defense that are comparable to supernatural powers.
Each type of magic plant can make up for his shortcomings in certain aspects. It is foreseeable that as the types of "magic plants" increase, his actual combat capabilities will steadily increase.
"The gardener is really a logistics professional, but his skills are actually in the flower fields..."
Lu Ping'an was thoughtful. He was on the battlefield, but his heart was in the garden. He was thinking about his future plan to cultivate magic plants.
"Cultivation of intelligence that can communicate is at least at a lower level than that of little Anna kittens and puppies. It may require more nutrition and investment, but the most troublesome thing is the time required for the growth of intelligence... Okay, let’s take the consumables and use them first, things like explosives and cactus armor are fine if you have low intelligence.”
In a sense, he is very satisfied with the gardener's career of planting flowers and grass. It does not require daily hard work. It is more about decision-making, choosing, and then waiting for the flowers to bloom and harvest (the big cat who works on the front line, elegant in Oriental dialect!)
Lu Pingan was thinking, but his hands didn't stop. It was already 3:20, and he had to leave at 4 o'clock.
This time, unlike the last round of tests, the main focus was on candidates competing against each other. In order to avoid interference, each school divided the test time and had to leave at the end of the day.
But in fact, the time we have been fighting all the way up to now has really been a lot longer. These are the only people who can persist until now, and none of the remaining opponents are easy to deal with.
Under such circumstances, Lu Ping'an still had a winning streak, and his strength was suddenly stronger than in the first and second rounds, especially his tentacles that suddenly became much more flexible, causing countless losers to scold this "old man". silver".
"...You still hide your strength? This is too much."
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's meaningless. Who told us that we didn't do our homework... No, it's useless to do our homework. We should learn this way of life with silver coins. We should prepare and hide it. More trump cards.”
They felt that they had been taught a good lesson, and they also understood more about the importance of intelligence in the career of a secret keeper, and it even affected some people's future career plans and lives.
As for Lu Ping'an himself, he just silently enjoyed the benefits of "unequal intelligence" and killed randomly along the way.
"Right now, there should still be twenty or thirty people. The main reason is that those third-level ones are too annoying..."
In such a competition system, it is impossible to know the ranking until the last moment. If the prize is the goal, Lu Pingan feels that he still needs to continue to work hard.
He was still restraining himself, at least the last fusion magic plant was kept in his hand.
"If you get a third-level standard score, maybe it will be much more stable."
This is not a crow’s mouth, nor is it a flag, but as the number of people in the competition pool becomes smaller and smaller, it is only a matter of time before we encounter a tough nut like the third level that “can’t be melted”.
In fact, there are a very small number of people who are extremely confident in their personal strength and do not play in the early stage at all. They directly participate in the battle in the last hour or two, that is, they directly get the standard points of the masters.
For them, the advantage of three lives and unknown intelligence is worth using against powerful enemies, and their physical strength and energy are reserved for the final burst.
If you are lucky, you can also pick up some head points from the "wounded" and "exhausted".
Of course, if you are unlucky or overestimate yourself, this strategy is equivalent to actively applying for three losses and getting out.
This trial, as time goes by, the difficulty rises to the limit.
For example, the opponent Lu Pingan is facing now is this kind of "queue-jumping student", and the feeling given to him is not much worse than that of Wang Hai before.
And Lu Pingan's opponent also wanted to take the initiative to greet Lu Pingan and... Mr. Knight in beautiful Eastern dialect!
If you want to terminate the contract with a strong man who is exhausted from fighting to the death, have you asked the fair and just knight? Three consecutive strong men are arranged!
But to be honest, Lu Pingan also wanted to greet the knight...
"This transfer student doesn't even have a few points, but he is still so difficult to defeat. What a shame! Sir Knight, since you are fair and impartial, don't forget my compensation! System, report to him now!"
