She looked at Chen Qing and then continued: "Some Taoist members are born with extraordinary cores in their bodies. This core sucks nutrients in a certain corner of their bodies. If they are not exposed to supernatural power, they will be like this for the rest of their lives. .
If it is touched, it will gradually hatch into an adult worm, then occupy a position in the host's body and send the differentiated functional worms everywhere. "
"Then...their promotion..."
"The stronger the insect, the stronger it becomes."
Chen Qing frowned, with obvious surprise and disgust on his face: "Didn't you say that this kind of core will gradually devour the host's will? When they reach their peak...if they cannot be controlled."
"What's the difference?" Bu Zhaozhao clapped his hands and seemed quite unconcerned: "In fact, the price for Daoting is the lowest. They have been under the influence of the bugs in their bodies for so long, and all their actions have Factors affected by bugs in the body.
Why do you think it was the bugs that took away their bodies, rather than that they have been subtly affecting the bugs? "
She took a breath and felt a little nostalgic: "Anyway, judging from the interactions back then, the people in Tao Ting did not have major personality changes in the later period. As for whether you are talking about people becoming gods or insects becoming gods... it is not a relic. Is it the same? Power only matters who controls it, not what form it takes."
Chen Qing took a deep breath and nodded.
"Where's the Alliance?"
"The Alliance...I don't have much to do with them. During the years I was with the Foundation, the Alliance was the weakest among us.
But judging from your previous battles, it seems that the situation has improved. "
"Why, what is the direction of their research?"
"That... I'm not sure..." Bu Zhaozhao hesitated a little: "It seems to be pure technology to control extraordinary power... This method was also proposed by someone in the foundation back then, but because the development was too slow, we rejected it. ”
"Is it similar to... cutting off a piece of your own brain, then filling it with a machine, and using the machine to affect yourself?" Chen Qing's mouth twitched, a little unbelievable.
"Yes. But not completely. For example, using cutting-edge computers to forcefully push the rules of the back room, and AI to forcibly master non-relics.
But in the years since I was injured and left... their development was still very slow. "
Chen Qing took a breath of air when he heard this. If this is the case, then it is no wonder that the power of the Alliance has increased so significantly now.
This is equivalent to using the power of the entire human society to help ourselves. That's right... without losing the name of the Human Alliance...
"Has the Alliance been in a trance?"
Bu Zhaozhao shook his head: "I didn't know about it in the past two hundred years, but it didn't exist at that time."
Chen Qing understood and asked her again: "Since you said it... when the power is raised to the limit, it will be called a god.
Have you ever thought about where all these powers come from? "
Bu Zhaozhao smiled and was very satisfied with his question: "According to our knowledge, all these extraordinary powers, taboos, and rules come from the same group of creatures from the ancient times.
But they are so powerful that taboos and rules will be formed after just the partial imperfections of the body are described and written down.
So much so that in the entire human civilization, no documents can be handed down that objectively describe them.
But what is certain is that whether it is the back room, the non-relics, or even the entities in the back room, they were all born under the influence of a high-latitude creature, or god. "
"You also said...the power of the gods is too strong. If we face them..."
"You will lose control and go crazy." She looked at Chen Qing and seemed to have guessed what he wanted to say: "Don't worry, your small body cannot grow an ancient god. The thing you grew before is called a heir.
It is a race that was influenced by the ancient gods, but got milliseconds and a little attention.
They are evidence that we infer that the world was once influenced by ancient gods. "
Chen Qing took a breath and nodded. If so, it would explain Jiang Wan's loss of control and the pain she felt that exceeded the limit.
"What about you? After talking so much, how are you going to leave here with me."
Bu Zhaozhao waved his hand and said indifferently: "When I go out, I will give you something that can hold my non-relics. It's not important."
She pointed to Chen Qing's arms and continued to say to him: "The important thing now is how to evolve your three non-relics."
Chen Qing nodded clearly, and then heard Bu Zhaozhao calling him to take it out and put it on the table. As he laid it out one by one, Bu Zhaozhao's face became a little more serious.
She looked at Chen Qing, pointed to the first human skin mask and asked him: "This non-relic... ability should be to change the image characteristics. What ability do you want it to favor after promotion? To supplement the combat function, or continue like this, It’s completely used as an auxiliary prop.”
Chen Qing looked at it and thought for a moment before speaking to Bu Zhaozhao: "There is no need to supplement the combat ability. Its full simulation effect is quite practical for me, so that's good."
Bu Zhaozhao smiled happily and shook his head slightly: "There are many similar abilities that fully simulate other people, such as the E-class non-relic - the altar dagger. After it stabs a person, it can disguise the target by peeling off its skin. In the shape of a stabbing victim.
But unlike your non-relic, it does not allow the user to obtain the target's thinking logic.
So you should think about what aspects you want it to highlight. "
After listening, Chen Qing lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
He thought for a while, then raised his head and said to Bu Zhaozhao: "I hope that in addition to obtaining the target's thinking logic, I can further obtain part of the target's memory. If possible, it is best to change the speed of the user's thinking logic. Slower, at least it will allow me to hold on until I can take it off after use."
Bu Zhaozhao nodded in understanding, took out a hard board with paper from behind, and kept writing on it.
"Two promotion routes: The first one is expected to result in the user's simulated target thinking and short-term memory being obtained. Additional negative effects: after use, the simulated target may obtain part of the user's memory.
The second promotion route: It is expected that the target thinking and short-term memory can be obtained, but the target thinking obtained will be greatly reduced, and the memory obtained will be mixed with some fragmented historical memories, which will increase the contamination of the user's memory and make it easier to forget who they are. "
Chen Qing didn't think much and answered immediately: "The second one."
"Then you need the eavesdropper's ear, a secret that cannot be detected by others, the stamen of the Blood Mist Flower. And at the full moon, complete the promotion ceremony in the room that was once used for prayer."
Chen Qing nodded, and just as he was about to ask her for the required materials, Bu Zhaozhao spoke before him: "Except for the secrets and geographical conditions, I can prepare all these materials for you, and the materials are not high-grade.
And your second non-relic...your mirror..."
She frowned, looked at it carefully for a long time, looked at Chen Qing again, and then slowly said: "I don't recommend that you promote this non-relic, it is a derivative."
Chen Qing was a little surprised, but he still agreed with her statement, but he was obviously curious: "Why."
"High-level non-relics are all unique. If you promote this non-relic... it may cause disputes with the original non-relic. I don't mind if you do this."
Chen Qing nodded. In other words, there is only one "name" after promotion. If he wants to be promoted, he must kill the previous one. But people won't just wait and let him get promoted. In this situation... it's better to be cowardly and develop.
"I'm still too weak."
Bu Zhaozhao laughed for a moment: "Don't worry. In the weird and extraordinary world, the power of knowledge is far more powerful than you think. You will catch up with them soon."
Chen Qing nodded without answering, but he obviously had other plans in his heart.
Immediately afterwards, Bu Zhaozhao placed his eyes on the wooden cone.
"As for this non-relic..." She was silent for a moment, with a curious look on her face: "I think I've seen it before. How come it was lost...and...degraded?"
"Oh?" Chen Qing was a little surprised: "What do you mean? I snatched this from a second-hand dealer in a club, and I am still an ordinary person."
Bu Zhaozhao frowned, even more puzzled: "What has happened in these years..."
She shook her head and threw all her thoughts away before continuing to Chen Qing: "As for this, you don't need to choose the promotion route. There is a route that is enough for it to be promoted to a very high level, and there is no need to calculate. Just. But I don’t have the materials for promotion right now…I’ll explain it to you in detail when I get out.”
Although Chen Qing was puzzled and had many questions, he still nodded and did not ask further questions at this moment.
"Why did it leak out...and still be so weak..."
Bu Zhaozhao muttered, took out a pendant from the shadow behind him and threw it into Chen Qing's hands.
"Put this on and you can take me away. After you leave here, you must be able to see the pendant before you can see me. Make sure to hide it in your clothes."
Chen Qing nodded in response and put all the non-relics in front of him into his arms.
After a ray of light lit up the bunker, as the light dimmed and receded, Jiang Wan's figure appeared in front of him again.
When she saw Chen Qing, her face looked a little happy, but also a little timid.
She stepped forward and took a breath after seeing that Chen Qing looked normal.
"What's wrong?"
She shook her head, as if she didn't know how to speak: "No...it's just...I read some information about the extraordinary world, which was a bit...shocking."
She sighed and walked towards the outside world with Chen Qing during the conversation. When they arrived at the river, the old man's figure was still there, but the girl was no longer there.
And where she once was, a pool of blood remained.
The handcuffs were cut violently. It was obvious that she never left by herself.
Chen Qing thought for a while, then stepped forward to collect some blood. After putting it in his arms, he and Jiang Wan returned from the original route...
The next morning, it was already the third day after Chen Qing entered the office building. He came out from the early morning of the next day and slept for a full day before gradually recovering from mental fatigue.
Jiang Wan seems to have returned to her job. The two days of disappearance may be a big deal or a small one, but it is obvious that she is in the bigger category now. After all, someone is snitching on her.
After Chen Qing took it easy for a day, he hesitated and decided to continue his campus life.
After experiencing fighting and the death of many people, a peaceful life is indeed the most hopeful thing.
