Infinite Bloodcore

Chapter 31: The truth about poisoning

Zhen Jin looked around and felt a little relieved when he saw that everyone's emotions had stabilized and hope flashed in their eyes.

Then, he ordered Huang Zao to direct everyone to start re-building the camp, and at the same time set up a cordon and lay defensive traps.

In the tent, Acupuncture, Cang Xu, Zi Di, and Cyanobacteria gathered together again.

Cangxu spoke first, feeling ashamed to admit his mistake: "This is all my fault! I didn't expect that the flesh and blood of goats are poisonous. I blinded my rational eyes for the immediate benefits. When I found that the size of the sheep herd was too large, I should Be aware of the weirdness and be alert to possible risks!”

Zhenjin shook his head slightly and said with relief: "This island is dangerous and strange, and we all want to get more food. This is not your fault alone, Mr. Cangxu. As the leader, I am even more to blame. However, There is no value in dwelling on these mistakes now. Think about it carefully, how should we solve this problem?"

Cang Xu sighed and expressed his opinion: "Now everyone is suffering from cold poison. This cold poison is very strange. On the surface, as long as you leave here for a certain distance, the cold poison will take effect. But in fact, I think this is Because of the temperature.”

"This place is close to the snow peak, the temperature is low, and the cold poison does not attack. After we turn away from the snow peak, the farther we go, the higher the temperature becomes. After reaching a certain level, the cold poison in the body will be triggered."

"The most direct evidence for this view is shearling clothing! When we take off our shearling clothing, the body's temperature drops rapidly, and the symptoms of cold poisoning are greatly alleviated."

"The above is everything I know about cold poison."

After Cang Xu finished speaking, he looked at Zidi.

Not only him, Zhen Jin and Lan Zhao also looked at Zi Di.

In fact, everyone knows that the problem involves toxins, and Zidi, as a pharmacist, is the person with the most say.

Since Zidi regained her mobility, she has started testing medicines using mutton, her own blood, etc.

At this moment, she was holding a glass test tube in her hand and was carefully pouring a particle into it.

The test tube originally contained a blood-like liquid. After the particles merged, it suddenly seemed like water was boiling, with a large number of bubbles popping out.

Finally, there was a soft bang, and the entire test tube exploded.

The bright red liquid inside spilled onto the carpet in the tent.

Zidi didn't care about the liquid. She leaned down, opened her bright purple eyes, and carefully picked out the small particles on the carpet with her fingers.

After a dozen breaths, she collected a lot of particles and gathered them in the palm of her hand.

She examined the tiny particles carefully.

Immediately, she keenly discovered that various cracks appeared on these small particles, and these cracks were not transparent and simple cracks, but had a clear gray color.

Seeing this, Zidi's eyes lit up: "Everyone, I think I have found the real reason."

"Oh? What kind of cold poison is it?" Zhenjin asked.

Zidi shook her head slightly: "In fact, goat meat does not have any cold poison. Before eating the mutton, for the sake of safety, I have tested it using various methods. The results are correct. The mutton is indeed non-toxic."

Everyone was wondering: "Then what happened to us? Could it be that something else poisoned us?"

Zidi shook her head again: "It's the goat meat that's causing the problem."

The doubts on the faces of Zhenjin and Qianzao became even more intense.

But Cang Xu had a flash of inspiration in his mind and blurted out: "Is it because the magic power is unbalanced?"

"Yes, that's exactly the reason." Zidi sighed, then explained in detail.

"This place is close to the snow peak, and the concentration of frost elements in the surrounding environment is very high."

"The goats live and multiply here, and the frost element in the air penetrates into their bodies. If these goats are natural creations, their bodies can coordinate magic and accumulate orderly magic. When this stable magic accumulates more and more , it will qualitatively change and condense to form a magic crystal."

"But according to our previous guesses, these goats are all man-made objects. Although their flesh and blood structure is stable, they do not have the function of magic coordination. They have always been protected by the forbidden magic environment."

"The frost element in the goat's body cannot be perfectly and naturally digested and absorbed. Although it can be converted into magic power, this magic power is very chaotic and contradictory. Not only cannot it form magic crystals, but it also has a characteristic that when the temperature is low , relatively stable, lurking quietly in the body. When the temperature reaches a certain level, it will explode suddenly, causing symptoms similar to cold poison."

"I thought I was poisoned by cold, so I took an antidote potion made from fire element materials. As a result, the fire-attribute magic power in the potion actually stimulated the ice-attribute magic power even more. The conflict between the two made me unconscious on the spot. past."

Zidi paused and continued: "Because of this, after we take off our woolen clothing, our body temperature drops rapidly, which makes the ice-attribute magic power become more stable and restrained, so our condition will improve quickly."

"So that's it." After hearing this analysis, everyone suddenly realized.

This kind of situation actually happens very commonly in the practice of extraordinary people.

For example, something went wrong when the mage was meditating. The ice element was not successfully transformed into mana. After corroding the whole body, the body was filled with cold poison, and even the whole body was frozen.

Dou Qi practitioners, such as warriors, knights, swordsmen, etc., will suffer backlash if they eat monster meat or take potions, but they cannot digest the huge magic power in it.

This phenomenon is not only common among practitioners, but is also more common in nature.

If a fishman who has lived in the sea for a long time enters the desert during the day, his skin will become dry or even cracked, his spirit will be listless, etc. This is because the desert during the day is full of fire elements, light elements, etc. When the fishmen are immersed in such an environment, they inevitably absorb light and fire elements. Although these elements are not actively absorbed, they form magic in the surface layer of the skin. These magic powers conflict with the water element magic built in the fish-man's body, which will cause symptoms of dry and cracked skin and listlessness.

In the Northland, a lush sycamore tree suddenly encountered a snowstorm. After the snowstorm, all the leaves of the sycamore trees fell off, leaving only bare branches, and frostbite occurred in many places. This is the sudden surge in the ice element, causing magic erosion.

Correspondingly, there are many ways to resist magic erosion in nature.

For example, green pines in the snow can maintain the stability of their wood magic power in an environment rich in ice elements.

For another example, in order to resist the scorching sun, rhinos in the savannah often roll in the mud and build mud armor to withstand the scorching sun. It also prevents mosquito bites. This is to construct a layer of earth magic power to replace one's own skin and engage in a war of attrition to defend against magic erosion from the outside world.

"Wait a minute, according to Master Zidi's explanation, aren't these muttons good things? On the surface, these are ordinary animal meats, but in fact they contain magic power and can be regarded as Warcraft meat. Warcraft meat is an expensive cultivation resource. !" Lan Zao, as a grassroots bronze elite, is very sensitive to cultivation resources and quickly exclaimed in a low voice.

Indeed, during the process of fighting spirit cultivation, there is a huge demand for the flesh and blood of monsters.

For example, people who practice fire fighting spirit usually eat the meat of fire-attributed monsters.

On the one hand, Warcraft meat is rich in nutrients, and long-term consumption will enhance the practitioner's own life heritage.

On the other hand, the magic beast meat contains fire-attribute magic power. After a Dou Qi practitioner eats the meat of a monster, the magic power in the food also penetrates into the practitioner's body. If left unchecked, these foreign magics can cause harm. But when a practitioner uses the fire-based Dou Qi art, he can quickly absorb and transform these magic powers, which not only eliminates hidden dangers, but more importantly, increases his own Dou Qi.

After hearing Lan Zhao's words, Cang Xu nodded slightly and acknowledged: "According to what you said, this possibility does exist."

"The difference between monster meat and ordinary meat lies in whether it contains magic power."

"It's just that compared with normal Warcraft meat, the magic power contained in these muttons is quite special. When the temperature is very low, the magic power is quite restrained, hidden deep in the body, and is relatively stable. When the temperature reaches a certain level, the magic power will show its chaotic nature. , the magic power bursts out and will pose a life threat to those who eat it."

"If an ice-based Dou Qi technique is very good and can withstand and transform the ice-based magic power, then these goat meats will be valuable Warcraft meat to these people."

"It's just...there aren't probably many of these people." Zhen Jin looked thoughtful.

Dou Qi Jue is a method that uses Dou Qi as a form to build coordination, balance and circulation of magic power in one's body.

There are many Dou Qi techniques, and their quality varies.

Excellent Dou Qi art not only requires the founder to be extremely talented, but also requires generations to perfect it. The most excellent Dou Qi techniques that occupy the top of the tower and are recognized by others are so small that they can be counted on ten fingers. For example, the Shengming fighting spirit practiced by Emperor Shengming, the polar blizzard fighting spirit of Duke Ice Roar, and the blazing fighting spirit of Sun-curving Sword Saint.

The more excellent the Dou Qi art, the more efficiently it can absorb and transform the magic power in the flesh of monsters.

Under normal circumstances, the magic power in Warcraft meat is relatively balanced and stable. After processing, it does not escape quickly. These magical powers are easy to sense and easy to absorb and transform.

But goat meat is clearly not the norm.

Goats themselves are not a product of nature. The richness of magic power contained in their bodies far exceeds their life level. The structure of the goat herd is also very chaotic. Most of them are ordinary beasts, and only a few are bronze-level beings.

Continuing to dig deeper, once the magic power in goat meat breaks out, it can immobilize even bronze-level cyanobacteria and yellow algae. But when they are silent and restrained, no one can sense it, whether it is acupuncture, blue algae or Zidi.

These two characteristics of the magic power structure have respectively raised the requirements for ice-based fighting spirit by a large margin.
