Some people hate working at night, while others are just fishing.
In the laboratory, Zheng Yichen looked at Elena and Katrina who were busy. Katrina was preparing materials to deploy a powerful guardian spell to ensure that the power in the skull would not be leaked, while Elena was preparing to put the Everything inside was dug out.
By the way, he thoroughly studied the power of that spiritual parasitic monster.
"It will take a long time to dig out the necessary information. You can go and rest first." Elena said to Zheng Yichen. Zheng Yichen used hell fire many times in today's battle, and after returning this time, Zheng Yichen's physical growth Not ideal.
The hair that best expresses his condition is that it grows relatively slowly. It seems that before his hair color returns to normal, it will not recover at such a high speed.
"Why are you resting? I'm here just in case." Zheng Yichen waved his hand, saying that he could rest assured here. Elena didn't say anything, she continued what she was doing.
After digging out the information, it was already dawn. Zheng Yichen was not sleepy, and the two witches were not very sleepy either. Katrina did not dare to be careless. The more she came into contact with the power emanating from the skull, the more she became I can feel the danger of this thing.
If they were not in a world with a low environment like Occult City, the two of them would have no resistance to this kind of power. However, with the addition of some powerful auxiliary props in a low environment, they could restrain this mentally parasitic monster.
In one night, the spiritual parasitic monster sealed in the skull was completely eliminated, and Elena used necromancy to extract all the information the other party knew.
"This is a kind of evil spirit. The world the other party lives in is a world shrouded in 'negative'. Although it is dominated by humans, it is easy for some special beings to appear in the environment of that world, and the appearance of The conditions are very low, and this thing was born from a bloody sacrifice performed by the indigenous people of its native world."
Elena described the origin of this evil spirit.
"A negative world? I have never seen such a world."
"This is only a small part of the information. The other party can parasitize the spirit and obtain the memories of other creatures, so it has a lot of information. It will take a long time to completely record it." Elena said a little helplessly Glancing at the skull.
The skull is still 'burning'. The flame is not a normal flame, and has no substantial temperature. It is just an external visual effect. The essence of the flame is something similar to 'spirit' produced after the decomposition of vitality and soul. Power's blend of powers.
She had made a wrong judgment before, thinking that this power was a mixture of pure vitality and spiritual power. In fact, it was not like that. After a night of research, she determined the nature of this power.
After the two powers are mixed, this is the power we have now. This is probably because the source of this power is an evil ritual, so this power is not a good thing. Ordinary people are easily affected if they come into contact with this power without protection. , if the mind is affected, the consequence is that the internal organs of the person concerned will be severely distorted.
"Don't worry, since this thing has a lot of knowledge, it means that you will be able to get more sponsorship in the next period of time." Zheng Yichen said to Elena, knowledge is something that witches can use, and the natives of Hazy City The forces also want to get it. Some local forces have caught the evil spirit clone. The purpose is self-evident.
They all want to get the knowledge they want from the evil spirit clone, but since it is a clone, it is definitely not that complete.
"Follow-up operations will still require Katrina's help."
"That's no problem. I'm in a state where strangers are not allowed to enter." Zheng Yichen smiled at Elena, leaving this kind of thing to professionals.
Now that the skull was almost processed, when Zheng Yichen turned on his thermal vision and looked at this thing, he found that the heat source inside did not have any condensed clumps, but was completely scattered.
This basically means that the evil spirit inside this thing is completely finished.
So, if a being from a higher environment is still so rampant after coming to a lower environment, that is asking for death.
Without any sympathy for this evil spirit, Zheng Yichen yawned. Just as he was about to go back home to catch up on his sleep, a car stopped in front of his house. An Ke got out of the car and said, "Excuse me, please let me know." Let’s rest here for a day.”
This woman has dark circles on her face, and her whole person is no longer as calm as before. You can see extremely obvious complaints and dissatisfaction from her face. This... is this the state of lack of sleep when doing research?
Zheng Yichen felt that a certain image he had made up in his mind was gone. In his mind, such a person should be able to easily stay up late for a long time and indulge in a certain research. Even after completing the research, he would not appear exhausted, but would Balabala talks about her achievements with great satisfaction...
But An Ke's condition is actually like this?
"Why?" Zheng Yichen asked. She lived not far from him. After the new partnership, An Ke didn't hide anything and directly told Zheng Yichen why she moved here.
"Because you are safer here. When I went to Beihu last night, I met many colleagues, and many wanted to kill me."
"Have you offended them?" Zheng Yichen got out of the way.
An Ke nodded: "Some of them have been offended by me. I have taken away a lot of the research materials they once liked, and some of them have achieved results that are completely inferior to mine. In some conflicts, He was beaten badly.”
"So they want to kill you? Instead of trying to completely defeat you technically?"
"Isn't that what peer competition is like? If you really want to win technically, there won't be much. The easier way to win is to let the incomparable person die physically."
Ah, Zheng Yichen was speechless. An Ke continued: "I made some additional discoveries at Beihu last night. In order to get those things, the An family and other families fought hard and hard. I was sleeping because of Not enough, it would be cruel to attack if your temper is bad."
"Now it's me who bears the consequences."
"...Is there no one in the An family? You are allowed to do this?" Zheng Yichen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly. Since An Ke is so helpful, the An family should provide her with enough supplies no matter what. Tight protection, right?
"It was my own initiative to come to you. Didn't I come here safely?"
"You are causing trouble for me." Zheng Yichen felt a little unhappy.
But An Ke seemed very calm: "Because there is really no place more complete than yours. Where is your bedroom? Just don't wake me up when I'm asleep."
Hearing An Ke's strange words, Zheng Yichen took her directly to the guest room. An Ke was not very satisfied with the guest room, but he didn't say anything.
Of course she didn't come to Zheng Yichen specifically to attract trouble, but what happened last night made the relationship between the major families in Long City somewhat stiff.
Temporarily stiff, as long as the benefits are sufficient later, it will definitely return to normal, but now it is stiff due to benefits. This stiffness will not appear too flexible until the power in this matter is completely digested.
And Zheng Yichen showed enough fighting power last night. People from those families will conduct additional investigations on him. Zheng Yichen's identity will not be kept secret for long. The An family knows and cooperates with many twilight hunters. relationship, but that kind of cooperative relationship will not be like that with Zheng Yichen.
Change source app]
Some of her research materials were provided by the Twilight mercenaries. The cooperation between the Twilight mercenaries and the Anjia was that the Anjia purchased the things from the Twilight mercenaries at a very high price, and also gave the Twilight mercenaries some things that the Anjia kept secret from others. products for sale.
Therefore, this kind of cooperation is very loose. If other families offer higher prices, those Twilight mercenaries will decisively give up settling down and go to another family.
Zheng Yichen is in a different situation.
Her coming here is also a statement to the outside world. Even if other families know the identity of Zheng Yichen's successor through the twilight mercenaries, they are already a step too late. Do they want to compete? That would be a huge investment, and you might not be able to gain Zheng Yichen's trust. After all, trust takes time to build.
And their level of trust is not low now, and they have completely surpassed others in terms of time.
The other thing is that she is really being targeted now.
Among the special things discovered in Beihu last night, in addition to the floating or sinking ashes, there were also some special 'crystals'. That kind of thing An Ke temporarily called the 'essence of life' was that The remains of the giant skeletal beast after it was blown up.
After some tests, it was found that that thing was not produced naturally, but was the product of a high degree of condensation under the influence of external pressure. The function of that thing is to affect the level of life, change the form of life, etc., and it can be done. In Anke's opinion, it is simply the 'philosopher's stone' in the eyes of an alchemist.
Although Zheng Yichen's blood is special, the withering properties inherent in his blood prevent that special blood from being put to better use.
The essence of life discovered in Beihu is different. She has been trying to study and improve the level of biological life. However, most of the research results lead to distortion of the experimental body, which is not an improvement in the level of life, but changes in the form of life... …That’s not an aberration.
Distortion means malignant, and alienation in abnormality is benign. After alienation, it becomes an existence that is different from ordinary people. Being different from ordinary people does not mean that it is not a human being, and the distortion in abnormal words is definitely not a human being.
Changes in life forms include distortion, but what she wants is abnormality.
Paying attention to the essence of life, An Ke used some technologies that had not been used before, and even used hallucinogenic substances separated from Zheng Yichen's blood, and successfully placed them on most of his competitors, allowing the An family to arrive. Quite a lot of life essence. The situation at that time was that they could take most of it, but if they really took away most or all of it...
The result would not be too good, it would really be tantamount to an all-out war, but even so, the share of life essence taken away by the An family would make other families feel heartbroken and even incompetent and furious.
The part that was taken away will definitely not be spit out. The An family is not that weak, so they can only compete for the remaining half of the share. The situation is always miserable...
After that, An Ke was targeted, and some old opponents detected some familiar traces from those who had been recruited, thus confirming that she was responsible for some things.
Of course, even if those people want to kill her, they can't do it openly. If they do, they will be ostracized by the entire circle. If you feel that she was killed so openly, do you still dare to attack people from other families? It doesn't matter if you do it secretly and not be brought to light, but it's another matter if it is brought to light.
Zheng Yichen's fighting ability yesterday, as well as Zheng Yichen's identity, in An Ke's opinion, there is really no safer place than here. Those people don't dare to bother here, and it can save a lot of things, in other places. There must be strong enough armed personnel around her to protect her. In addition to taking precautions, there are also other secret agents.
It’s troublesome to deal with and a waste of time.
After closing the door, An Ke didn't even think about taking a shower. He just lay down on the bed in the guest room, almost sleeping on the bed. Zheng Yichen felt an indescribable feeling when he looked at it. There were some other things through his breathing. The details have changed, and he can be sure that An Ke is sleeping very deeply now.
Not to mention that blasting cannons in her ears wouldn't wake her up, and anything that wasn't too obvious wouldn't wake her up.
"Good morning." After closing the door, he was originally going to go to bed, but after An Ke's troubles, he went out again and walked around the house twice. Not to mention, he discovered a lot. Some of the suspicious figures are very clever in hiding.
Zheng Yichen didn't even notice, but he had a plug-in, and the thermal vision directly exposed those people's figures to Zheng Yichen's eyes. Originally, he only got the thermal vision characteristics from some vampire monsters that didn't even have any special abilities. After repeated testing, After strengthening, it becomes so powerful.
Those people have professional equipment on their bodies, and there are hidden traces of this special power, but what Zheng Yichen's thermal vision sees is no longer ordinary temperature radiation. The capture of this thermal sensation includes the radiation of those special powers. The 'radiation' comes out.
After walking around his home, Zheng Yichen returned home, took out a piece of paper, and drew something on it. A large irregular box represented his home, and then the boxes of the buildings nearby. , in these boxes, Zheng Yichen drew many small circles with a red pen.
Afterwards, he put this graffiti-like painting on the roof of his house. The painting could be seen fluttering in the wind, and anyone who was not a fool would be able to associate it with the content in the painting. A hint or a warning.
Half an hour later, Zheng Yichen walked around his home again, and more than half of the people he could see through his thermal vision were reduced.
