Lin Yi put the crystal in his hand. "You take a look first."

Chen Yu couldn't wait to hold the crystal. After a moment, the excited expression on his face froze slightly, with a hint of surprise.

"Huh? Not Mechanical Dog? No, 'Frost' disposable freezing beam emitter can take effect on targets below 300 Source Energy degrees. The freezing time will attenuate depending on the target's intensity."

He raised his head and looked at Lin Yi: "Brother Yi, this is"

"Aren't you all going to join the rescue team?" Lin Yi said, "I may not be able to act with you every time. It's best for you to apply to be in the same group. In case of an emergency, this thing should be able to buy some time."

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, and then understood Lin Yi's intention.

This is not a weapon that pursues killing, but a piece of life-saving equipment at critical moments.

Chen Yu scratched his head, held it in for a long time, and finally said, "If it's you who is better, I won't be polite, Brother Yi."

Lin Yi waved his hand wordlessly, indicating that he should put it away.

Then he stopped talking and sat cross-legged directly, took out the Source Energy Crystal body harvested today, held it in his palm, closed his eyes, and began to resume consumption.

Early the next morning, Lin Yi had just finished eating half a piece of compressed biscuit and was going to go to the department store to have a look later, when Ren Yinuo came over in a hurry.

"Staff Officer Lin, General Staff Let me inquire urgently."

She got straight to the point, "General Staff I hope you can roughly estimate how long it will take you to break through to Stardust Rank?"

"Furthermore, if the promotion is successful, with the total amount of Source Energy and the recovery speed of Stardust Rank, is it possible to complete the hour-long Source Energy neutralization of Micro Nest?"

She paused and added, "General Staff has preliminary intentions and hopes to use you as the core to formulate a combat plan to eradicate this Micro Nest near Helu City.

"Once this plan is successful, its symbolic significance and boost to the morale of the military and civilians across the country will be immeasurable."

Lin Yi understands clearly.

He understands General Staff's eagerness.

At a time when the country is in deep quagmire and people are in panic, any hope that can prove that humans can proactively fight back and even destroy Abyss Beast Nest is worth investing huge resources to try.

This is not only a military operation, but also a spiritual breakthrough.

Lin Yi pondered for a moment.

There is no bottleneck for him to break through, the main thing is what level he should show.

He thought about it for a while and realized that Stardust Rank is indeed not difficult for those with talent, they can just break through.

"Ten days."

Lin Yi gives a deadline.

"According to Guidance Technique's statement, going from entry-level to Stardust Rank is a big level, and the difficulty of breaking through is not low. The accumulation of Source Energy volume and the precision of control are both indispensable, but."

His tone turned affirmative, "I have a certain degree of certainty."

As for the question of whether it can last for one hour, Lin Yi gave the answer after some thought.

"Based on the characteristics of Stardust Rank that I learned from <Nine-Layer Source Origin Method>, if I can successfully advance and improve the control of Source Energy to another level, minimizing the loss of energy during energy output, it should theoretically be enough to support an hour of neutralization."

Ren Yinuo carefully wrote down every word of Lin Yi, nodded and said, "Okay, Staff Officer Lin, I will report your reply to General Staff immediately."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After watching Ren Yinuo leave, Lin Yi finished his breakfast. In order not to disturb other people around him and to have a relatively quiet environment, he chose to go to the office assigned to him by Department Center in the morning.

Later, I felt that I couldn't use it, so I simply went up to the heavily guarded rooftop platform of Old Department Store Building.

The view here is wide and there is no one to disturb him, which makes it easier for him to practice his skills.

In the afternoon, he went out with the rescue team to help rescue survivors.

In the evening, when he just returned to the settlement from outside, Ren Yinuo came over again.

There was a hint of excitement on her face.

"Staff Officer Lin, General Staff replied."

"Supreme Command has decided to immediately start dispatching some of the main troops and heavy equipment to the surrounding areas of Helu City. It is expected that it will take about a week to complete the assembly and tactical deployment."

"Supreme Command instructions, once it is confirmed that you have successfully broken through to Stardust Rank, the combat operation will begin!"

"Good guy, this pressure is not small." Lin Yi heard this, raised his eyebrows, and said half-jokingly, "It's such a hard work, if I fail to break through by then, wouldn't it be a big sin?"

Ren Yinuo's expression was extremely serious. She looked at Lin Yi:

"Staff Officer Lin, please don't have such a burden. This is a strategic decision made by General Staff after rigorous analysis and risk assessment."

"Even if the final plan fails to be implemented for some reason, you do not need to bear any responsibility."

"Besides."

She paused, with an inexplicable belief in her tone, "Chief Li Zhenguo asked me to tell you something, 'I, Xia Kingdom, have lived for thousands of years. Whenever I am in danger, there will be heroes in large numbers to save Wild Tide. We believe that this time will be no exception.'"

Lin Yi Hearing this, he was slightly startled at first, and then he opened his mouth and showed a somewhat complicated smile, "Oh, you are quite confident in me."

He didn't say anything more, but his eyes became a little deeper.

Over the next week or so, Lin Yi's life entered a relatively simple and regular rhythm.

During the day, he sometimes goes out with the rescue team to perform some rescue missions as a volunteer.

Lin Yi doesn't always take action, he often just sits in the truck and thinks silently, but his presence itself is like a sea-fixing needle, which greatly enhances the team's sense of security.

And once he takes action, he will show his Thunder methods, especially when he once responded to a rescue team that was driven out by Abyss Bear in a critical situation, saving hundreds of people, and won widespread respect from the entire settlement.

When he was not on a mission, Lin Yi would either practice his skills on the rooftop of Old Department Store Building, attracting a large group of officers and others who felt they had some knowledge of Source Energy to watch.

Either stay at Command Center in the department store, communicate with Zhang Weidong, Ren Yinuo, and other officers responsible for tactical planning and intelligence analysis, and obtain the latest Xia Kingdom situation and intelligence while subtly strengthening their influence.

These days, because Xia Kingdom has adopted a contraction strategy, in addition to some heavy losses at the beginning, with the establishment of each settlement, a large number of survivors have been rescued, and overall, it has initially established a firm foothold.

Of course, this is only apparent.

Secretly, through Ren Yinuo's communication, Lin Yi knew that General Staff had confirmed the fact that Nest would expand through observation, comparison and analysis, but in order to prevent panic, it was not made public.

However, General Staff has begun to formulate response strategies.

And every night, Lin Yi would return to the tent unshakably, using the Source Energy Crystal body to continuously accumulate and temper the Source Energy in the body.

He could clearly feel that the Dantian Source Sea was getting fuller and more concentrated, and the speed of the flow was also accelerating.

During this period, Lin Yi's life rhythm was simple and compact.

Every day while practicing, assisting with rescues, exchanging intelligence, and exercising control, he could feel that the Source Energy in his body was becoming more and more full, and the invisible barrier from him was getting thinner and clearer.

Until one night a few days later, when Lin Yi once again completely absorbed the energy of a Source Energy Crystal body, he slowly opened his eyes.

There was silence outside the tent, except for the occasional light footsteps of the patrol passing by and the faint sound of engines from the distant defense line.

Ji Yi felt the Dantian Yuanhai surging in his body, as if it had reached a saturated state and could no longer absorb any more energy, and a kind of enlightenment came to his mind.

The critical point has arrived.

I watched it this morning and it was really exciting.
