Although the stability of "Eternal Self" is guaranteed, Ms. Su Lin's worries are not groundless.
This is mainly because the base of the medicine is a highly concentrated "Rust Mist" extract that is extremely difficult to obtain.
In order to stimulate the effect of "rust mist", it is necessary to retain part of its corrosive and aggressive properties.
It had to be intentional (sigh).
However, Xu Shi's ability is of a mental nature, and the impact on the target drug will inevitably be deeper than other types.
In short, it is relatively powerful.
As the medicine spread in the body, Xu Shi could clearly feel this.
When he first used the "Sundial", the feeling of suffocation and oppression in his consciousness was already very uncomfortable for him.
But now the extent is even deeper - if it was just an ordinary deep sea area before, then it is probably the bottom of the Mariana Trench now.
His whole body was tightly wrapped in the sea water, his skin felt tingling, his vision became blurry, and his consciousness became a little blurry.
From time to time, some strange ethereal whispers would come from my ears.
"Saying and scattering, PDD~"
"Ha↓ha↓ha↓ha↓ha↓ha~"
"Ou Xi, give it, Ou Xi give it..."
If you really let this kind of thing circulate in your mind for eighteen hundred times, it's hard to imagine what a person's mental state will be like.
But Xu Shi still tried his best to keep his consciousness clear, because he knew very well that this was an inevitable process in "re-upgrading".
Compared to other things, abilities may be considered relatively fair.
At least regardless of status, if you want to improve your abilities, you must take certain risks. All he can do is speed up the process. No one can escape the impact of "re-upgrading" itself.
Of course, except D-class.
So you have to get used to it - this is actually just the beginning. "Persistence" can only lift you to A level at most, and it may not even be... Then there are S and SS behind it. If you don't endure hardship now, you will be sure in the future. Hard.
And all this is not just to deal with Shen He, take advantage of Xie Qingyan and so on... Xu Shi feels that his ambition is quite big, and if he wants to achieve his goal, he must have strong ability support, or in other words, ability It is complementary to the goal itself.
Even if there are Su Lin, Xia Wuyou and the others, it's not advisable to just rely on them. You still need to be strong yourself.
With this idea in mind, he felt that he gradually adapted to it, and began to explore this boundless seabed bit by bit.
But then again, why do I have this style every time... There is no relevant description of his villain in this aspect in the original work, but Shen He is still a lot of water.
Every time it was light, a church, etc., but then it turned out to be darkness, the deep sea, it was outrageous.
Xu Shi rolled his eyes secretly, and at this moment, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
Um?
According to previous experience, this should be the anchor point for a breakthrough... but Xu Shi always felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, a moment later he discovered that in front of him was a monkfish several times his size!
And the so-called bright light is just the bait it throws out.
But even if he knew it, he seemed to have no way to retreat. As he was thinking, the giant beast had already opened its bloody mouth full of fangs towards him!
Hiss...what's going on?
Although I know that this is just my own consciousness dimension, even if it is swallowed, it will not be a big problem.
But in this case, wouldn’t it declare the failure of “re-upgrading”?
Or...
At this moment, Xu Shi suddenly woke up.
You are a villain in your own right, right?
Then, what the villain wants to do is definitely not to be baptized in the light.
Instead, embrace the darkness.
Although there was still some uncertainty, Xu Shi chose to trust his own judgment.
So he no longer hesitated and allowed the giant beast to slowly close its mouth.
The next second, strands of ink-like material wrapped him tightly.
And the feeling of fullness it brought made him smile unconsciously.
Sure enough.
…
"call……"
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Shi opened his eyes again.
"Arlene, Director Xu is awake!"
After regaining consciousness, the first thing I heard was not Su Lin's concern, but Jiang Chengcheng's, "Are you okay?"
"Hey? When did you come?"
Xu was still a little surprised, "How long has it been?"
"...About three days."
Su Lin also hurried over and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was fine, "Chengcheng was originally asking you to deliver some documents. I heard that you were upgrading your abilities so you stayed here. She has basically been taking care of her these days. you."
"That's it."
Xu Shi looked at Jiang Chengcheng and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work."
"How come, I should take care of you..."
Jiang Chengcheng shook his head when he heard this. His words were not only concerned, but also filled with deep self-blame.
Xu Shi was the one who changed her life. Taking care of him for a few days meant nothing... On the contrary, she felt that she had not done enough.
At least she didn't do much during this period. She just perfected the first draft of the "Exceeding Limit Plan" while receiving psychological treatment. She couldn't help much when faced with such a thing.
You have to find a way to repay Director Xu, right...
But having said that, she has recovered quite well - this can be seen from her appearance. She is no longer the messy and bloated look before, and she looks much more energetic.
And even if she is wearing regular clothes, it can be seen that she has a good foundation, giving people the feeling of a sickly beauty... Come to think of it, after all, the old man Jiang Fengshan adopted Jiang Chengcheng, his original purpose was to train her to be like Xia Ke'an The social butterfly.
"This outfit looks great and suits you very well."
Xu Shi couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Chengcheng was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and lowered his head with a red face.
"Data monitoring shows that Master, your "re-upgrade" was very successful and did not leave any sequelae. "
Su Lin was as serious as ever, "It's just that the level after the "re-upgrade" is only A-, which is still a little behind A-level. "
To be honest, Xu Shi's mental data these past few days were enough to scare her. This was the first time in these years that she had seen data changes like a roller coaster. Several times, even the electrocardiogram had returned to zero.
Fortunately, it turned out to be a near miss, which is okay.
My young master is just different from others.jpg
And Xu Shi was not surprised by this result. Whether his ability had been improved or not was basically synchronized in his mind at the same time he was awake.
A- Not bad, small branches like this are harmless and can reach normal level with a little consolidation.
However, this time, the effect of "re-upgrading" was not reflected in the scope of abilities.
It still didn't reach the level of a halo... but gave him a new effect that could take effect immediately.
"Implantation of Will to Be Victimized"
Different from the long-term effects of "entropy increase of evil thoughts", this branch of ability is relatively abstract - it can use extremely strong mental shock to make others no longer think that they have become a "victim" in a short period of time.
If the subject's mental level is low, he or she will even become somewhat dependent on being "killed" while the ability continues.
It's not a bad move... Xu Shi nodded secretly, wanting to find someone to do harm to him right now.
But it’s better not to use this kind of thing on the two of them... He finally shook his head and changed the subject to Su Lin.
"How was the situation outside these days when I was in coma?"
"...To be honest, there are quite a few situations."
Su Lin replied respectfully, "Over in Sin City... "Disge's" strength seems to have grown rapidly recently. According to the informant's information, they should have accepted "Xinghuo"'s surrender. "
Oh ho?
