Chapter 1685: Terrifying Nurturing
"It has indeed been refined," Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation. At the same time, Yunguan also collected hundreds of Asuras.
However, it is at most a four-armed Asura. Refining it... isn't it just a matter of blinking an eye?
"Probably... the origins complement each other," Taoist Jiao replied.
Qu Jianlei really understood this theory. He refined so many Asuras, so the origin... was used to fill the gap in the mother nest?
Of course, although he understood it, he was not sure about this. However, Master Jiao's suggestion was worth a try.
So he said, "Try to capture as many lone Asuras as possible. The higher their cultivation, the better..."
In order to prevent everyone from misunderstanding, he also explained the whole story.
"So this is the origin complementation!" The paranoid nodded, "I only heard about it, but I didn't expect to actually encounter it!"
This is indeed the consensus of everyone. Although the theory of origin complementation belongs to the world of immortal cultivation, more than one person has heard of it.
However, a lot of knowledge in the world of immortal cultivation is too far away from everyone, and it is really not easy to correspond to reality.
When it comes to materials or substances, everyone is familiar with them, but the origin...what is that?
"Then catch more," Bentley stood up first, "and don't kill any more."
"There is a certain danger," Qing Hu objected, "We haven't lost any personnel yet, are you sure, Boss?"
So many people have come to fight against the aliens, and so far, the record has been remarkable with no casualties. This is indeed something to be proud of.
Of course, the team has suffered very few casualties in previous battles, but she believes that this should not be taken lightly.
Qu Jianlei hesitated and said, "That's what Senior Jiao meant. I just think it's very likely."
"Then let's do it this way," Qing Hu believed in the boss's judgment, "beat them half to death first."
Then, an even more terrifying scene occurred.
When the division-level ship encountered the nest or Asura again, it did not focus on destruction.
They would use force to beat the other side half to death, and then someone would raise the Cloud Crown to take away the ruined nest and the Asura with low health.
When doing this, everyone was very cautious and didn't want the other party to discover this.
However, this is not something that can be changed by everyone's will. Although the Asuras are fearless and brave, some of them can run really fast.
After experiments, Qu Jianlei discovered that living Asuras can really effectively repair breaches.
Even Asura's corpse is of some use, but there is still a big gap between the two.
Those damaged small nests are subconsciously trying to repair themselves and are also competing for "nutrients" with the mother nest.
In the process of refining, only by completely crushing the small nest can the hole in the mother nest be fed back.
However, in that case, Qu Jianlei would have to expend extra spiritual energy to crush and refine the small nest.
So he said that as for the nest, it would be enough to break it into pieces, and there was no need to keep it as intact as possible.
We've heard that it can indeed effectively repair holes, so...it doesn't matter if we spend a little more effort.
But soon after, Qu Jianlei discovered that the effect of repairing the shattered nest was much worse.
He communicated with Jiao Daoren and Yi He, and the three of them agreed that this was probably related to the vitality of the nest.
A relatively complete nest has stronger vitality, but after taking in the cloud crown, it will consume a lot of spiritual energy to crush it.
The fragmented nest can be directly refined, but the repair effect will be poor.
However, all three of them believed that this was normal. There was almost no such thing as having the best of both worlds. It was normal to have pros and cons.
As the division-level ships advanced, they used various means to blast the nests and Asuras they encountered in an attempt to obtain more experimental data.
But in the eyes of those Asuras who managed to escape, this behavior was too terrifying.
——The other party actually no longer pursues blind killing. They kill their own kind half to death and then take them away in a strange container!
At first, Asura did not realize that the other party was conducting an experiment. He just thought that this method was cruel and incomprehensible.
But gradually, they began to realize that the other party might be "raising a nest"!
What is particularly terrifying is that the methods used by the other party are very similar to those used by immortal cultivators.
And immortal cultivators, like Ashura himself, do understand the logic of maintaining a nest, and they even give it the euphemistic name of "nurturing"!
Realizing this, even fewer Asuras dare to confront head-on.
This tribe is indeed fearless and daring, but maintaining a nest is almost like a living sacrifice, as they have to provide nutrients for the nest while still alive!
Even within the Asuras, this method is considered cruel. They will simply sacrifice the bodies of their dead companions to their nests.
Therefore, after approaching the Link Nebula, there were not many Asuras who attacked.
At this moment, the division-level ships looked somewhat damaged from the outside.
But Asura still didn't take the initiative to attack, even Qu Jianlei was a little puzzled, "Where did you say you were brave enough to not fear death?"
Feng Wangyi said, "Before, our tactical evasion was not understood by the opponent, and they thought we were easy to bully."
"Now we have decided to go all out... No, we are taking it a little too seriously, but they are scared."
"We, the Tree Clan... ahem, those alien Lin Hai are the same, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, it's really despicable!"
In any case, the division-class ship sailed into the Link Nebula smoothly, which was very different from the previous twists and turns.
"It's my fault," Qu Jianlei admitted his mistake frankly, "I should have asked Boss Jing earlier. I wasted so much time."
"What boss... There is only one boss in the team!" Jing Yuexin firmly refused to accept his title.
Everyone else can say it, but you alone...you are not allowed to say that!
She said a little shyly, "Boss, your attitude is the safest. Both sides don't know anything, so it's better to be cautious."
Qu Jianlei smiled and said, "The combat power is a little weak now. I will go and mobilize some more."
Half a day later, one division-level ship became three, including the Digital Phantom's flagship and two division-level ships of the Alliance.
However, there is no change in the personnel. Yuanyuan, Xiangxue, Rhine and Xiao Moshan are still guarding the important places of the empire.
However, Yuanyuan said that the government has been pushing for a deal breaker recently, and it seems that the situation of the federal artificial intelligence getting out of control is getting more and more serious.
But needless to say, Yuanyuan herself rejected the government's request for help - our main force has other things to do.
She even dared to openly kill officials on a habitable planet, so what else can't she do?
Qu Jianlei did not ask for details - out of sight, out of mind. Once he knew more, he might still be concerned about it.
The three division-level ships were sailing silently in the Link Nebula, like three huge ghosts.
The complexity of the Link Nebula far exceeds that of ordinary meteorite areas.
The last time Qu Jianlei and his friends came here, they were already confused and now they are a little at a loss.
Fortunately, when they joined the Skyline Mercenaries, they obtained a relatively detailed star map.
The division-level ships were traveling in the nebula, encountering very few Asuras and even fewer nests.
Instead, the huge alien bat reappeared in everyone's sight.
Bats' IQs are obviously lower, and once they discover them, large numbers of bats will flock to them.
Qu Jianlei was curious for a moment, so he used the cloud crown to collect a wave of bats, and unexpectedly discovered that it worked!
But it is not surprising. This bat has never appeared in the Federation before and is obviously a product of the Asura world.
So, even if the world is not of the same origin as Asura, it always has the same origin.
Of course, it's just better than nothing, but it's enough. How can you reject something you picked up for free?
So during the rest of the journey, there were always people on the division-level ship going out to collect bats with cloud crowns.
But every time, they would not collect all the bats, they would always leave some to report back.
The so-called fishing trip...it's definitely the best.
But there is no way, who can help it, because there are too few Asuras? After all, mosquitoes are also meat.
The only drawback is that the person controlling the Cloud Crown has never been Qu Jianlei, who had sacrificed and refined it, so it takes a bit of spiritual energy for an outsider to drive it.
Qu Jianlei has been busy recovering his spiritual energy, observing experiments, and creating new flaws.
The division-level ship circled in the nebula for seven or eight days, and finally encountered Ashura's three sub-nests again.
When the three sub-nests saw them, one stayed to stop them, and the other two tried desperately to escape.
"Asura is indeed fearless and daring," the flower scorpion exclaimed, and directly blew up the nest.
Then Dogan floated out of the cabin, raised his cloud crown and chased after them, capturing the fragments of the nest and the living Asura.
The two sub-nests that escaped were also followed by small ships, just to see where they went.
During the pursuit, they encountered some nests again, so that the Cloud Crown was frequently sacrificed.
In the end, they had no time to chase after the individual Asuras who escaped too fast.
After the three division-level ships rushed out of a medium nebula with chaotic energy, they suddenly discovered that six mother nests appeared in front of them.
One of the mother nests is particularly large, with a diameter of nearly 3,000 kilometers, almost as large as the moon.
The five smaller mother nests are located in the front, and in front of them are secondary nests, sub-nests, grandson nests, etc., which are densely packed.
It was obvious at first glance that Asura had set up a tight net to wipe out the invading enemy in one fell swoop.
Well, the idea of annihilating them all is a bit wishful thinking. After all, they now have three division-level ships.
But at the very least, what the other side wants is to defeat their side and cause them to lose, right?
Seeing this, Claire shouted without hesitation, "Boss, time to work!"
A figure flashed and Qu Jianlei appeared, looking a little haggard.
Seeing the battle ahead, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then he sighed, "Who are you looking down on?"
He then handed a box to Claire and another box to Tianyin.
"There are twelve in each box. Quickly transfer them to the other two division-level ships."
He worked tirelessly these days and produced more than forty defective lines on the spur of the moment.
Although it’s a bit of a waste of space stone, this thing is really useful.
