"Interesting," Ye Jingyi thought to himself after listening to the bear. He extended his index finger, and a thin needle made from nanoparticles appeared, instantly piercing the so-called inner core. He did this to scan the energy inside the inner core.
"Lot of mixed energy is detected. Will you proceed to absorb it?" Not long after, he heard Lynx's voice, and he was greatly surprised. There is mixed energy in it? That's a surprise. Mixed energy, in simple terms, is impure energy filled with impurities that need processing before use. These types of energy are mainly found on some inhabitable planets with harsh living conditions. He didn't expect to find it here, in a place with such a good environment. Listening to Lynx, he said, "Proceed."
"What?" Beside him, the bear asked inexplicably.
"Nothing," Ye Jingyi said, and through the thin needle, the Nano Combat suit started to absorb the mixed energy. Although mixed energy is filled with impurities, it can still be used, though the efficiency is not as good as normal energy. The Nano suit is made for survival, so it normally has a function to purify the energy. This function is extremely helpful in scenarios where one is trapped on inhabitable planets. With this function, they can get a steady supply of energy by purifying mixed energy. Ye Jingyi is using this function right now.
"Energy absorption and purification completed." After he heard Lynx's voice, he threw the inner core back to the bear and said, "Here, take it. It's not useful to me." Seeing the inner core in his hand and hearing the human's words, the bear was surprised and happy. There was a grin on his face as he said, "Haha, I knew that you are a good human." But inside his heart, he was calling this human stupid, as he does not know the value of the inner core.
Similarly, Ye Jingyi was thinking, I want to see if you will thank me after knowing that all the energy is missing. But on the surface, he replied calmly, "It's nothing, I am generous and benevolent, I hate fighting and stealing other stuff the most." Even though he has some dark plans in his heart, this does not prevent him from praising himself.
The bear and Hui Ying, who was lying on the side, were stunned after hearing him. "Are you benevolent? Just a moment ago, you wanted to open the bear's (mine) skull to take out the inner core. And you are saying that you are benevolent? Just how shameless are you to praise yourself?" Both of them thought to themselves. Hui Ying, in particular, has seen this man's every action since entering the bear's house; he plundered every herb growing inside. This is complete bandit behavior. Thus, after hearing him, she was speechless. And for some reason, she had a feeling that this guy did something to the inner core; otherwise, he would not return it to others.
"But this is fine too. After waking up, I need some resources to recover spiritual energy. At that time, I will use these inner cores inside the cave." Although she is in a coma, she could perceive everything within the radius of 20 meters with her spiritual sense. Therefore, she also saw the inner core buried deep inside the cave and saw Ye Jingyi working with various herbs. 'Hmm, my soul is after something; I will regain control of my body.' At that time, she can absorb these inner cores.
The bear looked at Ye Jingyi and then at the inner core in his hand with a suspicious expression. He also felt that there was something wrong with this human. But after seeing that the inner core is intact without any cracks, he was relieved. After one absorbs energy inside the core, cracks appear on the surface, indicating that the inner core is empty.
"Indeed, you are a benevolent human," the bear showed a smile and agreed with the human's words.
"It's good that you know that. Now, go and bring water for me. I can't cook without any water." Ye Jingyi stood up and said. But seeing the bear's indecisive face, his expression sank as he said fiercely, "What? You don't want to?" Saying this, a knife appeared in his hand as he looked at the bear with bad intentions.
"But…"
"No more buts! If you don't go now, then I will eat your meat today." Ye Jingyi said fiercely, not giving any chance to him. Hearing him, the bear whimpered as he scrambled and rushed outside.
While running he was thinking, 'Benevolent my ass! You are so cruel. I just wanted to ask how to fill the water? I do not have any storage equipment… '
….
Seeing that the bear left, the calm look on Ye Jingyi's face disappeared, replaced by an excited expression.
"0.5%... With just one inner core, 0.5% of the Nano Suit is repaired. If I have 200 such inner cores, then the Nano Suit will be back to normal…" Just thinking about this, Ye Jingyi was excited as he rushed inside the cave where a lot of inner cores were stored.
Now he wanted to absorb all the mixed energies inside these inner cores and repair the Nano Combat Suit.
This is the reason why he kicked out the bear just now. He secretly wanted to absorb all the energy.
He kneeled beside the pit where the inner core is buried, and from his hands, five needle-sized tentacles emerged.
He inserted these tentacles inside five inner cores.
"Lot of Mixed energy is detected. Continue with absorption?"
Soon, he heard Lynx's voice and he said, "Proceed."
"Energy absorption has started… 20%.. 40%...80%... 100%... Energy absorption is completed."
Starting to purify Mixed Energy...10%...40%....70%....100%... Energy Purification is completed."
In just thirty seconds, he absorbed the energy inside five inner cores.
"Next. Lynx, don't ask for permission again and again. I am giving you level one permission so just absorb all the mixed energy." Ye Jingyi inserted the tentacles inside the next five inner cores and started with absorption.
Lynx is bound with various restrictions. So if she wanted to do something with the Nano Combat suit, she would need his permission. Therefore, he gave her level one permission, with this she can do all the normal actions which are beneficial to him without needing to take permission.
"Understood. Starting with the absorption of Mixed energy…"
Like this, in three minutes, he absorbed the mixed energy inside the thirty inner cores. This is the amount of Inner core inside the pit.
"Lynx, what's the progress of the repair?"
"13.789% repair is complete."
Ye Jingyi was surprised after hearing this. This is lower than he expected according to his calculations. After absorbing all the thirty inner cores, the rapid should be done around fifteen percent, but now it's only thirteen….
But still, the progress is gratifying, which makes him happy.
"What are you doing?"
Just as he wanted to bury the inner core like before, he heard a weak voice from behind. When he looked back, he saw Hui Ying sitting while leaning on the wall, and there was a line of blood flowing from her mouth. Her complexion is still pale.
