Qi Shan calculated that it took him nearly two weeks to absorb a piece of golden crystal stone, not counting the four days that were completely wasted.

(My speed should be faster than the other bugs, and the golden one is the gentlest and easiest to absorb. I absorb it whenever I have time, but it still took me two weeks to absorb it all.) Qi Shan played with the crystal stone that was left with only an empty shell.

The crystal stone that was originally flowing with golden light is now crystal clear, like a piece of crystal.

(It's pretty. Can you use it as a glass bottle after grinding it?)

System inspection (not very good, after being absorbed, the hardness of the crystal itself is not strong, it will break with a little force)

Qi Shan knocked the crystal stone on the table with a little force, and the top of the crystal stone split into five small particles. He put the large piece of crystal stone aside and picked up the broken small particles.

(Really, it’s very brittle, but the cracks are very even)

The system turned into a small cube and floated next to the small particles. (It was a diamond-shaped cube. It originally stored spiritual power and formed a complete operating process for the test crystal stone. Therefore, after losing spiritual power, the divided test crystal stone would become small particles of average size.)

The little cube turned around and said with emotion (No wonder it can store such a large amount of spiritual power without exploding, it is the magic of nature)

(Hmm) The crystal stone is very useful. As one of the rare items that can enhance mental strength, it has no other disadvantages except that it needs to be absorbed in moderation to avoid being blown up.

Oh, there is another drawback. The quantity is limited. According to the systematic investigation, this batch of test crystals is the property that the royal family of Mermaid Star has treasured for decades, and there are only this many of them.

Qi Shan has one third of it in his hands, but it will only be enough for three years before he absorbs it all.

Qi Shan had no idea how far he could achieve in three years. His goal was at least to get into A and have enough say. Not only could he not say what he wanted to do, but he could also refuse things he didn't want to do.

The A-class suffered heavy casualties in the Ghost Disaster 150 years ago, and only a few remained. Fifty years ago, the last A-class died, and there are no more A-class male Zergs in the Zerg.

Over the past few decades or even hundreds of years, although the number was small, the Zerg could still collect some test crystals from various places every year, and the total number was considerable. Even so, no A-level was born in all these years.

(Xiao Xi) Qi Shan looked at the small particles in his hand and asked (You said that the crystal stone itself has spiritual power, or it absorbs energy from nature and converts it into spiritual power)

(Eh?) The system touched the cube's head, (Is there a difference?)

(Yes, if it is spiritual power, we can only find more test crystals, and it is best to find the place where the test crystals are produced. If it is to absorb energy from nature) Qi Shan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and made a bold guess, (the test crystal is a natural spiritual power storage device)

The system was shocked by his bold guess. The entire universe is still at the level of being able to sense mental power with instruments, but Qi Shan proposed to store mental power?

It is equivalent to when humans first discovered the existence of electricity, some people have already proposed storing electricity and using it as a tool.

The system was still calculating the feasibility, and Qi Shan tried to inject his mental power into the small diamond-shaped particles.

(Ashan, do you want to wait a little longer? I will calculate the danger.) The system accelerated the calculation while persuading Qishan.

(Don't worry, mental power can get in) Qi Shan's mental power has been slowly injected into the small particles, and small blue lines have begun to appear in the crystal clear particles.

The system dyed the small particles blue at a very slow speed and stared at the small particles nervously. He could test that the mental power in the small particles was continuously rising and was about to reach a critical point.

Qi Shan suddenly stopped, took a long breath, and a little sweat appeared on his forehead (No, I can't go on)

The small particles have now turned into dark blue crystals.

The system circles around the blue crystal (there is a lot of mental power inside, try to see if you can absorb it back)

Qi Shan nodded and picked up the blue crystal. The absorption speed was much faster than the injection speed. After a while, the blue disappeared.

Shakes his head (Half of it is consumed. If the injection costs 100 mental power, only 50 will be left after absorption)

(Half is wasted, but it proves a point) The system jumps back and forth, (The test crystal can store mental power, so if a large amount of mental power is needed, isn't it equivalent to having an extra power bank)

That makes sense, Qi Shan nodded (It may be because of my own mental power, the absorption is much faster than absorbing the original mental power of the test crystal stone, and there is no indigestion)

In addition to having an additional means of self-defense, Qi Shan was thinking of another possibility. Since mental disorders can be sorted out by male insects, then could female insects wearing crystals that store mental power help sort out or alleviate mental disorders?

In order to make this guess, the system retrieved all the information available on the Star Internet and even risked hacking into a government database. Unfortunately, the information on mental power only amounted to a thin piece of paper.

(Too little) The system said, (The entire Zerg has existed for tens of thousands of years, and there is no deeper information about mental power)

The system kept complaining that the Zerg used to rely on the male Zerg's natural ability to use mental power, and they used this power very roughly, with almost no systematic research.

The history of Zerg for tens of thousands of years is a history of invasion. The Zerg in the Kingdom period were like locusts. They attacked a planet, plundered its resources and then evacuated. After a period of time, they resisted the joint attack of other races, a group of low-level Zerg died, and then they rested for a period of time, and repeated this process.

Ninety-nine percent of Zerg were illiterate and relied on word of mouth to pass on their experience. It was not until the Kingdom Period that writing was no longer a privilege reserved for high-level Zerg.

But at this time, male insects have become a rarity, the royal family has been destroyed, and most of the noble insects today are not the same batch from a hundred years ago, but new nobles.

It can be said that the current Zerg has only been developing for a hundred years, and the fact that it has been able to develop rapidly to its current level is a result of the Zerg's strong strength.

After all, the only thing that can threaten the Zerg is the Zerg itself.

(It is a miracle that such a race can survive) The system was so angry that it was spinning, (No wonder when we first arrived, we detected that the Zerg was likely to be exterminated. I thought it was caused by the war)

(The Zerg may be exterminated) Qi Shan was surprised, (Why haven’t I heard you say that)

The system realized that it had let something slip and got stuck (I, uh, this is not, um, it was hard for us to survive before, why are we talking about this)

(Xiao Xi, do you know why the Zerg were exterminated?) Qi Shan said worriedly. He didn’t care whether the Zerg were exterminated during his wandering. At most he would die. But now there are Zerg that he cares about, so of course he has to live if he can.

The system thought about it (I haven’t found the reason for the Zerg in this world. I guess it’s because the male Zergs became extinct, or the Zerg’s strength became weaker and weaker, and then they were wiped out by other races?)
