Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

”1,000 points!”

Wen Yu clutched Qin Tian tightly with both hands, forcibly lifting him.

Even if it’s for his sister, a grown man kneeling on the ground looks rather unseemly.

”I can only provide a maximum of 1,000 physique points for Qin Shiyuan. Qin Tian, you have to understand, I also face many problems. 1,000 points is close to a tenth of my total strength; that’s my limit!”

Having said that, Wen Yu immediately turned to Wei Tian.

”Now, tell me the truth: is a limit of 1,000 physique points enough for Qin Shiyuan to last ten hours?”

”It’s enough!”

Wei Tian had no need to deceive or hide this from Wen Yu.

”Then let’s start!”

「...」

A tube as slippery as a biological tentacle wrapped around Wen Yu’s arm, its other end attached to Qin Shiyuan’s body.

As soon as the connection was established, a suction force—neither too strong nor too weak—immediately emanated from the tube.

After a quick assessment, Wen Yu felt he could sever the connection at any moment, allowing him to finally relax.

Wen Yu felt an unknown energy flowing from his body, continuously passing through the tube into Qin Shiyuan on the hospital bed.

11,352...

11,351...

His extraordinary control over his body allowed Wen Yu to easily perceive the changes in his own physical condition.

This feeling of permanently lowering the upper limit of one’s physique wasn’t pleasant by any means.

On the hospital bed opposite Wen Yu, Qin Shiyuan munched on high-energy energy bars while absorbing the massive energy from his body. Under the intervention of this terrifying external energy, Qin Shiyuan’s already frail body quickly restored to its original form, as if inflated.

Then, Qin Shiyuan’s complexion grew rosy.

The gentle life force wouldn’t cause Qin Shiyuan’s body to burst from overload. This surplus energy accumulated within her. On one hand, it provided enough nourishment for the Seed of Destruction. On the other, it constantly altered her own physique.

Strictly speaking, the Seed of Destruction wasn’t a weapon for destroying enemies, but a tool for self-strengthening—assuming one could feed the greedy little thing.

「...」

The energy from Wen Yu’s body gradually ”filled” Qin Shiyuan.

Under the gentle supply of energy, Qin Shiyuan felt as comfortable as if soaking in warm water. Before long, she gradually fell asleep.

”Is it enough?” Wen Yu, seeing this, asked Wei Tian who was beside him.

”The more, the better. Life energy is harmless; it accepts everything it’s given,” Wei Tian responded without looking back, bustling about the emergency room and constantly scribbling in a notebook.

Wen Yu shrugged lightly.

A thousand points then, so be it.

Although it wasn’t a small amount, Wei Tian had been right about one thing: for Breakthrough Achievers, increasing their maximum physique was indeed much easier than for ordinary professionists.

「Half an hour later.」

Wen Yu slowly detached the slimy tube from his arm, got up, and stretched lazily.

This sudden drop in his physique, almost a tenth, made Wen Yu feel utterly screwed.

Yet, facing Qin Tian, Arthur, and the promises he’d made, Wen Yu couldn’t turn a blind eye.

Seeing Qin Tian’s grateful gaze, Wen Yu slowly nodded.

”I estimate that in a few hours, the military will send someone to contact you. They’ll ask you to do certain things. I hope you can notify me in time.”

Qin Tian nodded in understanding. Though he didn’t yet grasp the full extent of the situation, he knew no possibility could be dismissed.

”Let’s leave it at that for now. You guys wait here; I have some things to take care of.”

With that, Wen Yu walked out of the emergency room, his face expressionless, and sprinted towards the military headquarters.

「...」

”I want to see Lin Haifeng!”

That was the first thing Wen Yu said upon arriving at the military headquarters. And the only thing.

Interestingly, Wen Yu’s status in the Yanjing Assembly Site was quite unique. He was like a partner to the military, yet held no official rank. Despite this, he could freely enter and exit the military headquarters and even meet Lin Haifeng directly.

Who could truly understand the intricacies of this situation?

The low-ranking personnel were oblivious to recent events. Faced with Wen Yu’s ”request,” these low-level clerical staff had no way to refuse. Led by two receptionists, Wen Yu proceeded directly to the door of Lin Haifeng’s office.

And then, he kicked!

「...」

BANG!

The solid wood door shattered. Wen Yu ignored the two Praetorian Guards at the entrance, who had tensed up, and looked straight inside.
