I became a member of the ancient gods

Chapter 30: Pulling Hands

Xu Zhongyi gritted his teeth and held on, continuing to use the "Giant's Right Hand" with "Heavy Armor" activated.

He punched the ground with his fist, punching holes one after another in the hard rock ground, as if he wanted to use this fierce momentum to dispel the sudden dizziness.

However, contrary to expectations, the dizziness increased instead of decreasing. There was also a strong tiredness tearing at his consciousness. If he relaxed even a little, he might faint.

Not only that, other symptoms also followed: a large black fog appeared in the vision, tinnitus, and a rusty smell filled the nasal cavity.

Xu Zhongyi's knees finally gave way and he knelt forward. When he came to his senses, he was already lying on the ground.

The "heavy armor" and the "giant's right hand" were removed unconsciously, which made his symptoms subside a lot.

The black fog in front of him was dispersed, and he saw the ground facing his face, covered in blood.

That was his nosebleed, which was still dripping.

What he was suffering from was the symptoms of the gray fog erosion, and it was also a reaction to the overload of the abyssal relics.

He quickly looked at the timepiece on his left hand and saw that only more than 70 seconds had passed.

Considering that he couldn't hold on and took time to recover after falling down, and using two level three relics at the same time, he probably only lasted about 1 minute.

how so?Xu Zhongyi felt like falling into an ice cellar.

Two years ago, he and Lin Zhong both tried to use two level three relics at the same time. He only lasted for more than 50 seconds before giving up quickly, while Lin Zhong gritted his teeth and lasted for a minute and a half.

Activities in the abyss surrounded by gray fog, or frequent use of abyssal relics, will produce a special kind of resistance. This resistance can slow down the speed of being eroded by the gray fog, and can also reduce the side effects of using abyssal relics and improve people's tolerance to gray fog. The burden limit of the abyss.

Abyss hunters who have been active in the abyss for a long time and frequently use abyssal relics will gradually gain stronger and stronger patience.Of course, due to differences in physical strength and willpower, different people have different natural patience and growth rates.

Lin Zhong's qualifications in this area are also higher than his, and he has known this for a long time.

At that time, he just felt that he should still have some strength left. If he gritted his teeth and persisted until he couldn't do anything anymore, he should be about the same as Lin Zhong.

However, he didn't expect that his thoughts were just to comfort himself, and his limit turned out to be only this point.

Not only that, two years later, his limit has not grown significantly, and there is still a big gap between him and Lin Zhong back then.

No, if Lin was still alive, would he become even more powerful than he was two years ago?

Thinking of this, his heart sank.

The test results are revealing to him a conclusion that he has been unwilling to admit:
The gap between him and Lin Zhong was probably bigger than he thought. He had completely misjudged himself, or... misjudged Lin Zhong.

"If you can't bear it, don't hold on. I've told you to stop looking for women outside. No, your body has been hollowed out!" In a daze, he heard Lin Zhong's teasing voice.

This was what Lin Zhong said back then, and it resurfaced in his memory.

"Shut up!!" Xu Zhongyi gritted his teeth and said this to Lin Zhong in his memory.

It is said that the burden of a fourth-level relic is greater than that of two third-level relics combined.

In the association's test to promote the Dawn Hunter, the promoted person must use the fourth-level relic for more than 1 minute.

In the end, can he meet the requirements?
Trying it again after a long time made him feel even more unsure.

Suddenly, Irene's face emerged in his mind.

We can't just give up!Erin is still looking forward to becoming a Dawn Hunter! !

Before the promotion assessment comes, as long as he works harder and adapts more, he still has a good chance!

The only thing that can be called a problem is the hunting apostle!
The sound of the float car's engine gradually emerged in his ears. He turned his head and saw the car approaching rapidly.

That was the car he lent Irene two days ago to pull people. Today they made an appointment to meet here, and Irene arrived much earlier than scheduled.

This made Xu Zhongyi a little unprepared for a moment, he could only use the sleeve of his combat uniform to wipe off the nosebleed vigorously, and then wipe it back and forth with the other sleeve.

Irene was speeding very fast. In the blink of an eye, the car approached less than 20 meters away and began to slow down. They could already look at each other through the windshield. Irene waved to Xu Zhongyi happily, and Xu Zhongyi also raised his head. He waved his hands and couldn't help but smile.

The car finally stopped next to Xu Zhongyi. As soon as Irene got out of the car, she pounced into Xu Zhongyi's arms.

Normally Xu Zhongyi would definitely be able to catch this attack and lead the woman holding his neck around twice.

But this time, Xu Zhongyi was still a little weak after using the Abyssal Relic in overload, and was directly thrown to the ground.

"Why didn't you pick it up?" Irene raised her head and scolded.

"Sorry, sorry..." Xu Zhongyi could only apologize with a smile.

"Hey, what's going on on your face? Is this a nosebleed?" Irene reached out and gently stroked Xu Zhongyi's nose with her thumb.

Just wiping it with his sleeve still left obvious red marks on both sides of Xu Zhongyi's nose.

"I accidentally fell and hit my nose." Xu Zhongyi made an excuse and smiled awkwardly.

"Idiot, why are you so careless! Do you want to make me feel bad on purpose?" Irene reached out and scratched the tip of the other person's nose.

"Irene..."

The other party's concern warmed Xu Zhongyi's heart. He reached out and wanted to hold Irene's face and say a few words of love, but then Irene suddenly stood up and said, "Oh, now is not the time for this!"

After Irene finished speaking, she turned to the car and shouted: "You all get down!!"

Xu Zhongyi suddenly remembered that Irene was going out this time to help people, so he quickly got up from the ground.

Two men with poker faces got out of the car, both fully armed.One has dark skin and a strong build, while the other is a tall and thin white man.

"Let me introduce, they are all veterans I have worked with before. You can call this one Razor. He can use secondary relics, is an expert in close combat, and can be a torch hunter. Then you can call this one Sniper. , as the name suggests, a sharpshooter." After Irene said to Xu Zhongyi, she turned to the two mercenaries, "This is my man, Ayi, the future Dawn Hunter, let's all get along well."

Both mercenaries nodded slightly towards Xu Zhongyi.

"I hope we can cooperate happily."

Xu Zhongyi forced a smile, greeted the two unfamiliar mercenaries, and shook hands with them respectively.

Of course, he was willing to believe that the people introduced by Eileen were reliable.Judging from their strong arms, straight stance and powerful steps, these two people should have excellent fighting qualities.

However, the impression these two people gave him was still a bit strange. Their eyes were empty, their expressions were dull, and they always felt... like they had no energy.

The Walking Dead - such an impression appeared in Xu Zhongyi's mind.

Will he become this mechanical after fighting in the wilderness for a long time?
We must not let Erin become like this!

He made up his mind.
