I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

Su Mo didn't know that less than an hour after she left Tao's house, the police came to her door.

Since it was still early, she decided to go back to her home to take a look.

"Huh?"

After returning home, Su Mo discovered that the little things he had arranged had been moved by someone. Although the other party restored everything, the spiritual power attached to Su Mo disappeared.

My house was searched but nothing was missing, so I realized there was no point in searching here? Haha, I just don’t know who did it, was it Luo Cong? Or someone from the Psychic Association...

Su Mo didn't investigate further and made another move before leaving.

Return to Licheng Hotel, wash up, and enter the library.

Wen Song and Liu Moxi's retreat is still continuing. After all, it has only been a few days, so it would be difficult for them to have any new insights.

Since no teacher was available to teach her, Su Mo continued with her practice.

She had previously found a set of introductory books on spells from among the numerous books, and this was one of the few books she could understand.

This set of books contains several basic introductory five-element spells.

According to the guidance, one should choose to study the type of spiritual root that one focuses on. For example, Wen Song has the spiritual roots of gold, fire and wood, and the gold spiritual root is the best. He is more compatible with the gold element, so learning and practicing gold-attributed spells or techniques can help him comprehend it faster and have better control.

But because Su Mo didn't know the attributes of her spiritual roots, she tried each one, uh..., she found that each one was quite simple.

This made her doubt whether she had five equal spiritual roots...

It’s more than the three spiritual roots of those two teachers!

But if she has five spiritual roots, her cultivation speed is not slow at all, which is different from what Wensong and the others said.

Wen Song and Liu Moxi came from two different sects. They were both worried about their cultivation because they had too many spiritual roots. Well, that's what they said themselves, and Su Mo had no way to prove whether it was correct.

Alas, she just lacked a magical instrument to test spiritual roots. No, she lacked many kinds of magical instruments. The magical instrument that could detect the properties of materials that she asked Wensong to research last time had not been found yet.

I hope they can give some surprises after this retreat.

Otherwise, she would have to do it herself.

Research and other things take up the most time, and her most important task now is to search for secret realms.

After visiting more than ten secret realms and not finding any other cultivators, Su Mo didn't know whether his plan could be implemented smoothly.

If she couldn't find more teachers, was it necessary for her to expose her teaching tower? If she didn't expose it, it would be difficult to take out the dictionary separately... Well, she should speed up the search of the secret realm. She had to find it before she knew it.

The next morning, the two continued their journey.

He went to Yunnei Province, Nan Province, and Yushuo Province, and then to eight secret realms, but still couldn't find it.

Seeing that school was about to start the day after tomorrow, Su Mo paused his actions.

When the two were having dinner at the hotel, Su Mo decided to tell Xie Yongming, "Let's go back to the headquarters tomorrow. I'll do the rest when I have time. Brother Xie should also go back to practice. He has wasted a lot of time running with me."

Xie Yongming, who was already very familiar with Su Mo, asked the questions that he didn't dare to ask on the first day of departure.

"Xiao Su, you have been to so many secret places. What are you looking for? You can't be helping the association collect resources for a special mission, right?"

Xie Yongming didn't believe it, after all, Su Mo's average time in the secret realm was so short.

Su Mo curled his lips and said, "My luck is not very good. I don't want to mention it."

"Uh..., there are still many things I haven't visited yet, don't be discouraged."

The answer was vague, but Xie Yongming automatically understood that she wanted to find an opportunity but failed, and hurried to comfort her.

In fact, in his opinion, Su Mo is already very capable, so it wouldn't be a problem even if there are no new opportunities for the time being.

······

After returning to the headquarters, Xie Yongming went to make a mission report, and Su Mo returned to the dormitory alone.

At the door of the room, I saw Jiang Li leaning against the wall and flipping through his phone.

Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Li looked up and said, "Wow, you're finally back."

"Sister Li, are you waiting for me on purpose?" Su Mo smiled and opened the door to enter the house.

"Well, the minister said you'd be back today, so he asked me to come and tell you about the latest situation. They're in a meeting, and they'll definitely want to see you after it's over."

"Oh? What's going on?"

"The association is already promoting the body-refining method you submitted, but due to a lack of resources, the number has to be decided by drawing lots. There are only twenty people a day, so the progress is slow. It will take some time to go through everyone in turn."

Su Mo poured her a glass of water and sat down on the sofa.

Jiang Li continued, "Although this is the case, everyone's enthusiasm is very high. Examples have emerged one after another, showing that the difference between before and after body training is not small. Some team members found it difficult to improve themselves through training, but after body training, their strength increased significantly."

"If your physique improves, you will be more adaptable when you go to the secret realm, and the danger level of the mission will also be reduced."

"There is also a new achievement from the weapons group of the research institute. They have discovered a kind of ore. The cold weapons made with this ore do not require much mental strength, so many people can use them."

"It won't be difficult for a team member who has strengthened his physique to kill a level one monster with this weapon."

Su Mo looked a little high-spirited and asked, "Why? Have you experienced it yourself?"

Jiang Li grinned, "Team members like me who have improved their physique after physical training are the first to be qualified to use it. We will be responsible for collecting the beast blood."

Su Mo nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad. Sister Li must have earned a lot of points, right?"

Jiang Li touched his nose and said, "It's not so bad, but this weapon has a shortcoming. It's not durable. If you use it skillfully, it can last longer. If you just chop it with brute force, it will be easily damaged. Sigh."

Su Mo looked at her thoughtfully. "Come and wait for me today if you are free. Could it be that the weapon is broken?"

"Ahem, I handed in five monsters, so it's normal for the weapons to be worn out."

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched. Well, the durability of this weapon was exhausted after defeating five monsters. The shortcomings of this weapon are obvious enough.

"How long will it take to repair it? Will it be the same as before after the repair?"

"I'm still waiting in line. The weapons team is very short-handed. I can't get it repaired once it's sent over. I'll have to wait a few days. Well... a repaired one is certainly not as good as a brand new one, but this is my first time repairing it, so I can still use it a few more times..."

"Don't look like that. The weapons team is also working non-stop on the optimization plan."

"Also, the minister has been looking for ancient martial arts masters across the country, and wants to find some teachers to teach us about cold weapons."

Su Mo nodded and said, "It's time to learn some skills. Otherwise, it would be too frequent to change the knife for five monsters."

Unfortunately, the three sword techniques she had learned before required psychic energy to drive them.

"Well, let's not talk about that. The medical team has also made some achievements. They have developed two new detoxification drugs and a nutrient solution. One tube of it can keep you full for a whole day."

Jiang Li stretched out his little finger and used his other hand to gesture the length of a tube.
