Start from a ball of mud and expand infinitely

There are professional people to handle matters between countries.

Therefore, Li Ge does not need to spend any thought on it.

For Li Ge, the most important thing at the moment is the upgrade of the Kingdom of Life.

The north wind is chilling, blowing the stubborn dead leaves on the branches like a knife, and from time to time it rolls up the cold snow particles on the ground.

The bright moon hangs high.

The bright light complements the silvery white on the ground, which is the thin snow covering the ground.

After the early winter, there have been several light snowfalls. Except for the extraordinary monsters, most of the animals are now hiding in dark and safe caves.

Even the monsters that have the ability to move around in the cold winter would rather sleep in a dark and sweet dreamland than run around at this time.

But Li Ge was very energetic at this time.

He's checking the seconds

"4, 3, 2, 1, 0..."

"Ding... Today's energy is being settled..."

"Stop talking nonsense and strengthen the land of the Kingdom of Life."

The system got stuck for a while, which was very frustrating.

Logically speaking, he should have been used to Li Ge's approach.

Because Li Ge has been like this for the past 10 days.

Li Ge was afraid that if it took a second and a half, the huge energy would flow to the Kingdom of Hades again.

However, due to the rigorous data and logic of the system, every time it is interrupted, there will be a moment of data chaos.

If we use the analogy of human emotions, it is probably...

anger.

However, anger was of no use. After feeling aggrieved for a moment, the system obediently used all its energy to strengthen the Kingdom of Life.

The boundaries of the land were spreading, and Li Ge chose to deepen the thickness of the land in order not to alarm others.

Therefore, intuitively speaking, Li Ge's territory has not expanded much.

But now the soil in Li Ge has accumulated to a thickness of seven or eight meters, and the thickest place can reach more than 10 meters.

"Ding! The level of the Kingdom of Life has been improved. It is currently level LV4."

The system's crisp prompt sounded, igniting Li Ge's anticipation.

"Each level upgrade will bring new skills. I wonder what the skills will be this time?" Li Ge murmured to himself.

As expected, the system lived up to expectations, and the prompts continued.

"Acquiring new skills in the Kingdom of Life, metal manufacturing and manipulation."

Li Ge secretly smiled: "Can you control metal? The evolution of the Kingdom of Life is indeed as I expected."

"In the process of evolution, control over the land will be strengthened little by little."

"But, I wonder how far it can be controlled?"

Although it was late at night, Li Ge, who had just acquired a new skill, was not sleepy at all.

He couldn't wait to experiment with the effects of his skills.

The skill is activated, and all the energy is flowing in the land of the Kingdom of Life.

Li Ge narrowed his eyes and felt carefully.

Inch by inch, his spiritual consciousness passed over the body of the Kingdom of Life.

The roots of vegetation, the beetles among them, and the shivering fur balls in their nests all appeared in Li Ge's mind one by one.

suddenly

"What are those?"

Li Ge's attention was attracted.

There are some dots in the soil, like fine sand.

They all exude a special light.

To use an analogy, it is like a special target in the game with a circle of highlights added around it.

In the dark underground, it is extremely conspicuous.

Li Ge gently tried to touch it with his spiritual consciousness.

"Is this metal?"

"This is metal."

The system's feedback gave Li Ge a definite answer.

At this time, Li Ge remembered the name of the system skill, Metal Manufacturing and Manipulation.

"Are you here to control these metal elements?"

The huge spiritual power spread slowly, quietly, wrapping up the little bits and pieces in the soil, and then quietly pinched them together.

"Sure enough."

One star after another sticks together to form a larger existence.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Ge finally got a small piece of very messy metal.

Li Ge: "..."

What the hell is this thing, and what is the use of this skill?

Li Ge casually threw this mess aside.

What he was thinking was simple. Since control couldn't do anything good at the moment, he might as well give manufacturing a try.

However, the skill has just been activated

"Sorry, you are missing a manufacturing template."

The voice was polite but unflattering, just like the voice that came from the phone in a previous life when the phone bill was low.

"Sorry, your phone balance is insufficient."

——Hell, when I am short of something, if you say sorry, I will only think you are mocking!

but……

template……

Li Ge turned his attention to the piece of metal that had just been thrown away.

Maybe, that thing can be a template?

Li Ge did not act rashly.

Because, the matter of "leading the people" reminded Li Ge.

There may be an upper limit to the number of subjects.

Reasoning by analogy...

Perhaps, metal templates also have an upper limit.

Before everything was unknown, Li Ge was really unwilling to waste a position casually.

So, Li Ge began to experiment all night long in order to find a template that was good enough.

Li Ge sank his consciousness into the ground again and carefully distinguished the differences between each light spot.

Obviously, the color and size of each light spot changes slightly.

When grabbing light spots, you can consciously grab different components to form different metal mixtures.

However, Li Ge doesn't want to make any mixture yet.

Because Li Ge was not a professional in this field in his previous life and did not know the various properties of metal mixtures.

Making a mixture is not as good as making a metal element.

in short.

Just pinch the same light spots together to make a template.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The bright moon shifts to the west.

In the east, fish belly white gradually appears.

During this period, no one could see him except Li Ge.

Underneath the land.

One after another, metal blocks of different shapes and colors appeared, and then quietly disappeared.

…

"Oh my god! Can you still feel the pain in your back without a body?"

Li Ge stretched hard and emerged from the earth.

In an instant, the dazzling sunlight made Li Ge cover his eyes reflexively.

The next second, Li Ge realized.

——Why are you covering your eyes... I already have no eyes!

It was noon in early winter.

The warm sunshine shines on the ground, which is a rare comfortable time of the day.

Li Ge simply found a sunny place and lay down.

While lazily basking in the sun, I checked the system's property panel.

Several templates appear on the skill bar of metal control and fabrication.

Siderite (ferrous carbonate), gibbsite (aluminum hydroxide)…

Each name almost makes Li Ge dizzy.

"Fortunately, the system will automatically pick the name."

Li Ge wiped away the non-existent cold sweat.

These are the results of Li Ge's busy night.

These compounds are some common metal substances in Li Ge's land.

Originally, these metal materials were scattered in the land and could not be used at all.

However, Li Ge spent a whole night kneading the same substances together.

Although there is only a small piece of each one, Li Ge can guarantee that these are definitely the purest elemental compounds.

In short, it is the purest metal ore without any impurities!

You should know that metal ores in nature, except for inert metals such as gold, will appear directly in elemental form.

Other metals are generally doped with various impurities!

Take iron ore as an example. If the iron compound in the iron ore can reach 80%, it is already a relatively excellent raw material!

hundred percent?

Don't even think about it.

"It's not easy! It's not easy!" Li Ge sighed.

These are all simple metals that he worked hard to grab from the earth.

Under Li Ge's control, Li Ge began to metalize the surrounding soil.

At the same time, Li Ge's energy was also decreasing rapidly.

"It seems that with the use of energy, the soil of the Kingdom of Life can be turned into metal in an instant?"

"Although I don't know what the use is, it's good to lay a good foundation."

Suddenly, Li Ge's thoughts moved.

The flat ground suddenly sunk downwards.

then.

"brush!"

"Swish!"

Several spikes protruded from the ground in defiance of gravity!

If it were before, the characteristics of the land itself were not enough to be fixed into such a sharp shape, and the next second, it would inevitably loosen and fall back.

However……

The moment the spikes swelled, cold light suddenly swam around the spikes.

solidification!

Each metal thorn is instantly shaped.

"pretty!"

Li Ge looked at the big killers standing proudly, feeling satisfied.

"Although the thorn can only be made by inertia, the shape is a bit rough, but it is easy to use."

The corners of Li Ge's mouth were grinning upward almost uncontrollably.

No wonder Li Ge is so happy.

--finally!

——My body finally began to have mass destruction!

At this moment, Ge Nan floated over curiously.

"what is this?"

She squatted next to the spikes and poked them with her fingers curiously.

"oops!"

She suddenly let out a cry of pain and jerked her fingers back.

Li Ge was quite surprised by what happened suddenly.

"What's wrong? Let me take a look."

Ge Nan opened her palm, and there was a small wound on her finger.

Li Ge was stunned for a moment.

This is so strange.

In the world of the living, Ge Nan is immune to almost all physical attacks.

But……

Li Ge turned his attention to the metal thorns on the ground.

——Is this kind of metal the only one that has the effect of harming Ge Nan, or does it mean that any metal I make has this effect?

——As for being able to hurt a spirit body, can it only hurt Ge Nan, or can it hurt any spirit body?

These two thoughts passed through Li Ge's mind for a moment.

Then, he faced Ge Nan and showed a kind smile.

"Xiao Nannan, let's do an experiment, okay?"

Ge Nan pinched her injured finger and raised her head.

His big eyes looked straight at Li Ge, magnanimously and clearly.

"God, I don't think you look like a good person now."

Then, he blinked his big eyes.

Pure and pure.
