I don't know how long it took, but the hot plasma gas turned into a layer of frost. Hot and cold alternated, and the pores shrank.
This is to solidify the runes deep in the skin and form a series of muscle memories. After all, he has never practiced the so-called "thousands of times of hard work", so he can only achieve it quickly through this method.
I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Ming, who was almost frozen, was brought out again.
A group of Honggang men were not polite. They picked up hammers and beat them. After a few "dang-dang" sounds, the layer of metal on the surface was knocked open, and a living person was pulled out.
"Haha, still alive!"
Your uncle's! Lao Zhang cursed in his heart.
"Hurry up and finish it in half an hour!" Master "Gongjinye" urged with a strong voice.
Another seven or eight hammers came down.
This scene frightened Zhang Ming, but for some reason, when the hammer hit his skin, it made a sound of gold and iron... Was it quite comfortable? It feels like a massage!
"Mr. Zhang, please be patient, this is just the beginning... We need to carve inscriptions on your bones next. We used a little anesthetic here. Please don't resist the pain."
"Carve an inscription on the bones!" You don't need to look at it to know that it was the Shimamaman who repeated the obscene words, and I don't know why it was so happy.
The next second, Lao Zhang bared his teeth and felt that his back was cut open by a rune blade. Even with anesthesia, he could still clearly feel that these guys had carved something on his bones...
This feeling is quite impressive to be honest. Think about it, the scene of being disemboweled and carving on the bones is more terrifying than "knowing during the operation".
Zhang Ming could only rely on his own willpower to resist. Later, even the "Xuanwu Visualization Diagram" couldn't stand it anymore, and he thought of his ex-girlfriend again. What did his ex-girlfriend look like... He racked his brains to think about it.
After completing this step, Zhang Ming was stuffed into the stove again.
The golden flame penetrated into the bones through a small wound, burning slowly, solidifying the runes...
The pain involved is really indescribable to outsiders.
To be honest, even if human beings learn the skill of "thousands of tempers", without powerful flame micro-manipulation technology, it will not be of much use. After all, this micro-manipulation of flames has been accumulated by Honggang people for countless generations, and humans cannot learn it at all.
And Zhang Ming also promised that he would not spread this knowledge, not even to humans. Otherwise, this group of Honggang people would suffer, and they might be sent to prison for leaking the secrets of civilization!
Even during the entire "forging" process, he had a vague understanding. In theory, this process does not allow any superpower to intervene, otherwise it may destroy the purity of these runes.
But in fact, "Burning Soul" can be used...
After all, "Burning Soul" has transcended the conventional ability category and reached the realm of "supernatural power".
However, once "Burning Soul" was used and his perception doubled, Zhang Ming was worried that he would faint from the pain, so he had no choice but to give up.
…
This extremely difficult month passed by in a hurry in my random thoughts.
Zhang Ming was delirious and tried every means to persevere.
He even activated the "Scat Lover" in the furnace!
I don’t know why, but after activating “Feces Lover”, the unparalleled pain turned into unspeakable enjoyment!
"It feels so good, so good!!"
So during the whole process, he allowed these Honggang people to squeeze him and almost remained silent.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a soft "bang" sound, and Lao Zhang was burned into a ball of black coals. He felt like he was being pulled out of hell, and his eyes looked at the people around him in confusion.
What's going on... I'm not letting people enjoy it anymore?
"Did the experiment succeed? Ahem...why is there such big ash?" The one who is most concerned about it is Admiral Gondor. There is no extraordinary person guarding the ship. He is really anxious!
"The willpower of Your Excellency the Extraordinary One is indeed well-deserved. If he complained of pain, we actually wanted to give him some anesthetic... But he remained silent and showed strange smiles from time to time. He has been forged by hundreds of people in his life and has never encountered this before. Such a weird thing.”
The master of engineering, metallurgy and metalwork shrank his neck, feeling inexplicably strange when he thought of that scene.
"You...you didn't take anesthesia? How could you not take anesthesia? This is a medical accident!" Gondor's face twitched twice and his voice became louder.
"Theoretically, when the will is clear, the effect of forming muscle memory will be better, so we were told not to take anesthesia at the beginning to avoid forming psychological dependence."
Gong Jinye's expression became more and more strange: "Although everyone couldn't hold on anymore and all took anesthesia... But His Excellency the Extraordinary One actually survived it. It's really amazing. He seems to be getting more and more comfortable. No wonder he Able to achieve extraordinary things.”
"Mr. Zhang, are you still awake?" Gondor scratched his scalp and stretched out his hand to wave in front of Zhang Ming.
"Awake."
He then breathed a sigh of relief. The extraordinary person was indeed an extraordinary person. If something went wrong, that would be so right!
Lao Zhang, who was burned to black charcoal, sat up in shock in his dying illness. The purple lightning "crackled" in his mind dispelled his crazy trembling mentality. Thinking of his abnormal psychology this month, he felt a chill in his heart.
If you didn't fucking tell me earlier, you'd have caused me so much suffering!
I said, there is no such thing as being thrown into a furnace and burned without anesthesia!
Forget it, being misunderstood is not necessarily a bad thing.
Zhang Ming climbed up from the stretcher tremblingly, picked up two bottles of nutrient solution and drank it down, then went to the bathroom next door and took a hot bath.
"Crash!"
The warm hot water washed away the gray dead skin on the body and dispelled a month's worth of random thoughts.
The new skin under the dead skin has long since grown, and the wheat-colored muscles are well-proportioned and strong. Since these runes are engraved deep into the skin, they do not affect the appearance, which makes Zhang Ming quite satisfied.
Looking at the properties panel again, there has indeed been a huge change!
[Physique: 8355 (6222+2133)] (The "King Kong" ability has been merged, the current control degree is 62.22%; "Thousands of tempers" adds an additional 2133 physiques)
[Perception: 6222] (Incorporated "King Kong" ability, current control level 62.22%)
[Spirit: 10302] (The "Lightning Control·Alienation" ability has been merged, the current control degree is 83.76%)
[Lifespan: 48/3924] (To be honest, magical powers can be infinitely enhanced. Your lifespan is not enough to burn 100 billion times the "burning soul" for 0.001 seconds. You have to keep working hard!)
The veins on Lao Zhang's forehead jumped twice. What's going on with the burning soul 100 billion times? Punch through the sea of demons with one punch?
[Total Attributes: 26688] (I have to admit that as long as you don’t encounter a terrifying existence above the abyss level, your probability of overturning is not high.)
In the skill column of the attribute panel, there is an additional passive skill called "Thousands of Refinements": [Thousands of Refinements: By carving inscriptions on the body, it directly increases the physical strength by 2133 points. This attribute is not included in the total attributes and cannot be transferred. 】
"It is worthy of the Honggang people's heritage and a passive ability." Zhang Ming was happy in his heart.
This is the first time he has gained a passive ability.
I remember when I was playing games in the past, there was a term called "Passive Brother". With all his passive abilities, he played like a flat A. It would be great if there were more passives!
The five fingers exerted force slightly, and the runes in the bones and muscles flickered slightly, allowing the muscles to explode with greater power than usual.
Zhang Ming was satisfied, but at the same time he was a little at a loss. The sudden expansion of power made him accidentally make a fingerprint on the rocker of the faucet.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
He needs some time to adapt to this greater power.
Fortunately, the current perception level of more than 6,000 points should be enough to control the body of more than 8,000 people, and there will be no physical disharmony.
After taking a shower, I put on clean clothes and felt refreshed.
Zhang Ming kept thinking about the mysterious runes in his body.
The muscles and bones have all been strengthened, but the internal organs are not engraved with runes.
This is because Zhang Ming's body structure is slightly different from that of Honggang Man, so even master-level craftsmen do not dare to experiment randomly.
Of course, Zhang Ming could slowly inscribe it on himself. It took him more than a hundred years to inscribe the visceral runes. The passive ability of "Thousands of Refinements" can increase his power by more than 3,000 points, which is indeed powerful enough.
"How do you feel? Has it been enhanced?" Gondor asked quickly when he saw him.
"Apart from the painful process, the final result is really good." Zhang Ming pinched the muscles on his arm and sighed, "Your civilized sages are amazing. I thought that after becoming an extraordinary person, I would never need these anymore. Technology has crystallized..."
"Haha, you are wrong. Without a team for research, it is also difficult for extraordinary people to make progress, and they are prone to losing control of their mentality."
Gondor took a rune instrument and tested it for a while. The master-level carving was indeed extraordinary, and the chance of error was only one in ten thousand.
These errors need to be corrected slowly by Zhang Ming himself.
Zhang Ming added: "But what do I think? If you want to instantly kill extraordinary monsters like the Faceless Man, this improvement is still not enough."
Gondor smiled and said: "Actually, 'Thousands of tempers' is not just as simple as improving your physical fitness. It also needs to be matched with corresponding combat skills and special rune weapons. By then, your hand-to-hand combat ability will be greatly enhanced, even without the help of the power of the abyss. It’s not difficult to chop the faceless ones into pieces.”
"Even I can have a brief hand-to-hand fight with the Faceless Man... Haha!"
"That's true. The monsters here are good at sneak attacks, and close combat is very important." Zhang Ming admitted that his fighting skills are very rough and rely on brute force. "If you don't hesitate to teach those fighting skills..."
"Where is it? If you are willing to learn, it is a win-win thing..." Gondor said this, but it was still very useful in his heart. Who doesn't like a strong man who is humble and eager to learn?
