Zhang Hongmian said that this is the characteristic of spiritual illusion.
The hot spring nursing home where I and Xie Zhi were in was essentially a fictional environment based on Zhang Hongmian's memory before his death, and was not the real hot spring pollution site.
Xie Zhi and Zhang Hongmian will encounter the same enemies simultaneously in different timelines. Among these two timelines, if the enemies in either timeline die, the enemies in the other timeline will also die at the same time.
For example, Zhang Hongmian encountered a dry-body bandage monster in his own time and space. When Zhang Hongmian did not kill the bandage monster, a long and narrow wound automatically appeared on the bandage monster's neck. This wound The wound was caused by Xie Zhi using crazy scissors on the other side of the memory.
But this time, Xie Zhi was defeated by the Shadowless Man, and before he was about to be brutally killed, Zhang Hongmian, who was on the other side of his memory, showed off his power and used his slightly unfamiliar emotions to incarnate the "Blood Oath" to kill the Shadowless Man. Only then did he save Xie Zhi's life from a situation of inevitable defeat.
"Thanks to your information, otherwise I might have been pierced through the calf by those poisonous needles at the last moment."
Zhang Hongmian's voice came from the other side of the spiritual link.
"No, it's me who should thank you."
Xie Zhi thought to himself, if Zhang Hongmian hadn't killed the Shadowless Man on the other side of his memory, just by relying on his half-assed crazy scissor transformation, and even because he had consumed a level that even Dalian's emotional incarnation could not summon, this time eighty-nine Fu Li Shi is going to explain it here.
Thinking of this, he began to think again, what would happen if I died in this pollution field?
Will the copy be reset just like after Hang Hongmian dies?
"No, if you die in the mental illusion, you are really dead."
On the other side of the memory, Zhang Hongmian shook his head.
"If you compare Mental Illusion to an online game, you are like the player who broke into this game, and I am like the NPC who needs you to rescue in the rescue mission."
"Once I die, the entire mental illusion will be reset due to my death, including my memory, which will also return to its original state during such a reset."
"Although I don't know how you entered the spiritual illusion, maybe through the illusion shuttle, or through a psychiatrist who has practiced special methods to directly link your spirit and thinking with the spiritual illusion, but every time you reset the memory Copy, these methods will theoretically deduct a part of the energy from your spirit as the energy loss to restart the mental illusion."
"It sounds like you're in an arcade and you throw in a coin to be revived after losing," Xie Zhi complained.
"It seems like you are indeed from the early millennium, and you actually know something as old as an arcade."
Zhang Hongmian smiled and then explained,
"This is indeed the case. Under normal circumstances, a negative purifier with full mental energy usually has three to five opportunities to restart the mental illusion. Each time they restart the mental illusion, their success rate will be higher. But at the same time, It will also consume additional energy from them, making them less effective in actions that require mental energy.”
"You said earlier that you couldn't stop vomiting because the black water in the body bandage splashed on your face, which greatly shortened the transformation time of Crazy Scissors. But in fact, even if you didn't vomit, after the mental illusion was reset, The time you can perform emotional transformation will only be half of what it was before."
"If it happens again, this time will be doubled again, from one minute to about fifteen seconds."
Xie Zhi was thoughtful.
Resurrection is resurrecting, but at the same time as the blood volume is restored, the upper limit of mana is actually reduced, and there are fewer skills that can be used in actual combat.
The more times you are resurrected, the closer you are to an ordinary person?
"You won't become an ordinary person in the mind copy."
Zhang Hongmian shook his head,
"The mental energy of ordinary people cannot bear the consumption of a spiritual illusion. If your mental energy level really drops from the legendary negative purifier to the level of an ordinary person, you will be squeezed by the energy consumption of the illusion before you become an ordinary person. If you do it, your spirit and will will be wiped out in an instant."
"At the same time, if the person who dies in the illusion is not me but you, due to the immersive effect of the mental illusion on memory and touch, if you receive a fatal injury in the mental illusion, your spirit and The mind will feel that it has been mortally wounded in the physical world, which will also lead to the death of your spiritual will."
"Of course, this kind of death is limited to your spirit. Your body will still maintain the lowest energy consumption in real life, but it will just become an unconscious vegetative state."
"..."
Zhang Hongmian introduced to Xie Zhi the precautions for the spiritual illusion in detail. As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.
Xie Zhi was lying on his back in the sauna, wanting to laugh but unable to do so.
"If you had told me that mental illusions are so dangerous, then I definitely wouldn't be as desperate as I was just now."
"I just need to find a corner and squat down. It's not worth taking such a big risk to save people."
Zhang Hongmian was amused at the other end of the spiritual link. He could tell that there was a joke in Xie Zhi's words. After all, a few minutes ago, she clearly heard Xie Zhi's messy thoughts. Among them, Seventy or eighty percent of the people's thoughts were "It would be great if I could save Zhang Hongmian." There was not a single consideration about "life".
"Really? I don't believe it."
"The next time you encounter something like this, you will definitely think that just sitting here and resetting it a few times will lead to death. It is better to go out and maybe you can still have a future."
Zhang Hongmian smiled and shook her head. At the other end of the timeline, she was holding the water-soaked bandage leather sheath in her hand, slowly tearing the wound on the neck of the leather sheath with her fingers, widening the wound on her neck. to the back of the holster.
"Speaking of which, I'm curious, who sent you to this spiritual illusion?"
"Under normal circumstances, sending a negative purifier into a mental illusion for dungeon training, even if a professional mental illusion shuttle device is used, requires experienced psychologists to accompany and work together. If the negative purifier encounters irreversible damage, Before, we urgently cut off the spiritual link to save Master Qingqing’s life.”
"This is the first time I have seen a negative Qingshi like you who knows nothing about everything. Even if you don't understand anything because you are a time traveler, it would be disrespectful for the psychiatrist not to teach you in advance before throwing you into the illusion. Responsibility."
A responsible psychiatrist...
Xie Zhi rolled his eyes.
That Sima Xi was quite responsible. He really came to me when he said he would come back, and the time between before and after did not even exceed 24 hours.
Xie Zhi said that the people who threw him into this spiritual illusion were evil elements of the Human Balance Organization.
The psychiatrist is indeed a psychiatrist, but Xie Zhi estimates that if he really encounters a life-threatening situation in the illusion, the other party will most likely watch his brain death and then applaud him.
"Actually, I don't know why he put me here."
Xie Zhi shook his head,
"According to Sima Xi's ability, he could have killed me directly on the spot, but he still had to go through such a big detour and send me into an illusion."
There was one thing Xie Zhi didn't dare to say.
If we put aside the danger of his own narrow escape and look at the benefits that sending himself to the spiritual illusion can bring to him, then why does Sima Xi want to kill himself? He clearly wants to give himself a great fortune?
Think about what is in this spiritual fantasy?
Once she successfully rescues a truth-finding team leader who has experienced hundreds of battles, she will be the biggest helper she gets after traveling through time. She will look more like the old man with the ring in those fantasy novels. grandfather.
Oh, this is not even an old man here. If I were an otaku, then this would be a two-dimensional wife with a beautiful face and a first-class figure, the kind who would never leave her until life or death.
If he and Zhang Hongmian can successfully leave this illusion, maybe when they meet Sima Xi in the future, he may have to call Sima Xi a matchmaker...
But how is such a thing possible.
The simplest question, what does he want?
Xie Zhi was puzzled and threw himself into a mental illusion. It was not safe to "eliminate the roots", and there was even a certain probability of giving himself a big chance.
It can't be simply because Sima Xi thinks "it's fun to do this".
That is unless his name is not Sima Xi, but Sima Leziren.
Fuck you, this name is really hilarious.
So... what can he, Sima Xi, gain from "throwing me into a spiritual illusion"?
Xie Zhi's brows gradually tightened and he began to think deeply.
This contemplation was finally broken by the red cotton on the other side of the memory.
"Is there a possibility that his purpose is not to eliminate the root cause?"
Zhang Hongmian's voice came from the other end of the spiritual link.
"In all the past documents, spirit entangled people have created countless miracles."
"I guess he might be gambling."
Xie Zhi was stunned, betting?
What is he betting on?
"He is betting that you can come out of this mental illusion alive and bring him the most valuable thing in this illusion."
"Take you out?"
Xie Zhi laughed dumbly.
"I don't think there is anything more valuable in this illusion than you...well, no one or thing."
From the other end of the memory came Zhang’s clear laughter like red cotton wind chimes.
"You're so weird, you're always so polite in weird places."
After laughing, Zhang Hongmian's voice returned to seriousness.
"But to be honest, I'm really not the most valuable thing in this illusion."
"Although I am the youngest female leader of the truth-finding team, the most valuable thing in this illusion must not belong to me, but to my father."
"I guess what Sima Xi wants you to find is the seventh book that my father announced that he would give up compiling before he retired."
"The seventh book?"
Xie Zhi was stunned for a moment, then blinked.
So, what are the first six?
"The first six books are: "Introduction to Negative Emotions Clearing", "General Principles of Negative Emotions Management", "Advanced Negative Emotions Clearing Methodology", "Advanced Negative Emotions Diversion Cultivation Guide", "Zhang Zihe's Negative Emotions Derived Cultivation Methodology", and, " Zihehe bears the Qing division promotion letter."
Wait a moment!
I can still understand the first three books, which sound like college textbooks on cleaning up negative emotions.
What are the last three books?
Practice? Promotion? Purple River?
Have I really arrived in a scientific world? Is this really not some fantasy novel?
The corners of Xie Zhi's mouth twitched.
His head was a little short-circuited, but he thought about it for a while and decided not to think about it anymore.
I understand too little about the world. No matter how much I think about it, I can only get further and further away from the truth of the world.
"So, what is this seventh book?"
On the other side of the memory, Zhang Hongmian's voice suddenly fell silent.
After a long time, she spoke again.
"My father has not finished writing the seventh book. If there is a direction, the exploration direction of this book is..."
"The path to becoming a god."
