As soon as the thought came together, a powerful sense of gain swept through the whole body. This feeling was not the feeling of gaining energy, but a sense of satisfaction that suddenly filled oneself.
"Characteristic collection."
In order to test whether the memetic ability was useful, Shen Xing directly conducted a characteristic collection.
In an instant, a protective film of black veins appeared on his body, and then the protective film disappeared, and then veins popped up all over his body, one by one bulging under the skin, and his eyes turned red, as if the violent skill had been activated.
After a while, it faded, and suddenly the red light when the special pupils were activated appeared again, and the face turned into the unfamiliar face when the face-changing skill was used for the first time, and then the second and third faces.
Shen Xing could deeply feel the sudden changes. His muscles bulged high and then shriveled up. His hair seemed to have touched the side of static electricity, standing up and then quickly falling down again.
There was also a brief confusion in his consciousness, and there was only one voice echoing in his mind - Gather!
Rumbling, like a thunderous explosion, sounded in both ears.
At this moment, his heart was beating faster and faster, with a steady and powerful rhythm. Every heartbeat was like a heavy hammer hitting his body, strongly stimulating the nerves in his brain, making Shen Xing feel dizzy.
Suddenly, all the abnormal feelings disappeared, and a third progress bar appeared under the progress bar of physical strength and mental antibodies under the eyes.
Shen Xing came back to his senses, took a closer look, and found that there was text in the progress bar saying "Meme: None".
This None should mean the current meme status, which means that the current meme has no other status.
The value of the progress bar shows "3", which is Shen Xing's current remaining meme value.
Looking at the third progress bar, he had the feeling that all his characteristics had been completely gathered together. It was no longer a single state, but a mixed but completely calm state.
Shen Xing wanted to try what this state would look like after it was revealed, but after careful consideration, he could feel that if it broke out, it would be extremely powerful, and the degree of alienation would be even more terrifying than before. If it is not necessary, it is better not to use it frequently. Good.
"Start 'Characteristic Transformation'."
At this time, he is also absorbing his own characteristic energy from the dry well anomaly and the human specimen anomaly. Normally, this part of the energy directly increases the strength of the body.
Not long after, Shen Xing's body strength increased from 80% to 106%.
If the absorbed abnormality has latent skills, it will be acquired by Shen Xing at this time. However, Shen Xing is not willing to absorb these uneven skills anymore. Instead, he is preparing to use the transformation function to directly convert these latent skills into increasing physical strength. One of three properties: mental antibodies and memes.
At this time, a new line of text pops up.
[Four new latent skills were detected, but at the same time it was detected that the host had activated "Characteristic Transformation". Should the detected skills be directly converted into one of the three attribute values of physical strength, mental antibodies and memes? 】
Shen Xing muttered silently: "Show this latent skill first."
[Latent Skill: Evil Wish Fulfillment
Method: Active skills
Effect: You can fulfill someone's wish by consuming mental energy, provided that the wish must be harmful, negative, or malicious.
Consumption: The amount of mental energy consumption depends on the size and difficulty of the wish.
Side effects: Fulfilling the evil wishes of others is the beginning of evil. The process is interesting, and the ending is even more interesting. 】
…
[Latent Skill: Devour
Method: Active skills
Effect: You can eat anything that appears in front of you. At this time, you have super digestive ability through the gastric juice that can eat through fine steel. No matter whether the opponent is abnormal, human, or other dead bodies, as long as they dare to stand in your way In front of you, eat them all.
Consumption: Determined by the digestibility of the food
Side effects: Be careful to keep on dieting, otherwise you may become a 400-pound fat man who can only crawl but cannot walk and is very ugly. 】
…
[Latent Skill: Night Ghost
Method: Passive skill
Effect: You will start to like the dark, especially in a space with no light at all, and you will be like a fish in water. In the dark, the acuity of the five senses is increased five times, the movement speed is increased ten times, and it also has skin barbs that can climb most objects you can see.
Consumption: Continuous mental consumption as a passive skill
Side effects: Note that the transition from darkness to light will be the most uncomfortable moment for you. At the same time, be careful to die in the light! 】
…
[Latent Skill: Rotten Corpse
Method: Active skills
Effect: As one of the strongest defense skills, it can make the host move slowly in a very short period of time, but the defense intensity spirals upward, making it almost impossible to find effective means to destroy the host's body. So sometimes moving slowly is not a shortcoming.
Consumption: Continuous consumption of mental energy depending on time
Side effects: The rotting corpse state will produce a large amount of odor secreted from the body. This smell will continue to emit for 24 hours after the rotting corpse state ends. 】
…
Seeing that this was an introduction to a latent skill, Shen Xing was speechless.
It seems clear now that the two skills of Evil Wish Fulfillment and Devouring seem to come from the dry well anomaly, because they are very similar to the characteristics of dry wells.
The night ghosts and rotting corpses are from human specimens, which are very consistent with the characteristics of the female corpse.
Of course, as always, the side effects of these hidden skills are complex and sometimes unacceptable.
For example, smelling something 24 hours a day is something that Shen Xing, who prides himself on being good-looking and outstanding in appearance, is really not something he can endure.
Moreover, this is just an explanation of the side effects. If the frequency of use increases, there may be a strange smell coming from the body at any time in the future.
This is the inevitable result of physical alienation brought about by latent skills.
Therefore, Shen Xing did not intend to acquire any of these four latent skills.
According to the rule that each anomaly can absorb one latent skill, he can now choose two, and directly use memes to convert these two latent skills into energy that can increase physical strength, mental antibodies, and meme value.
After some thought, Shen Xing chose the two latent skills of "Evil Wish Fulfillment" and "Night Ghost".
These two skills were chosen to prevent the situation where "Characteristic Transformation" does not work or the transformation is incomplete.
If it doesn't work or the transformation is incomplete, at least when you have to absorb part of the latent skills, the side effects of these two latent skills will not cause too much conflict in your heart.
After making the choice, a sense of energy instantly filled his heart. Shen Xing realized that the latent skill was not acquired, but was actually transformed into a powerful energy. This energy was stronger than the energy that strengthened the body brought about by absorbing the abnormal characteristics itself. .
[Please choose the host to add attribute values, physical strengthening and mental antibodies, choose one of the two. 】
"Why is there no meme value added?" Shen Xing was full of doubts.
[The abnormal characteristics that generate memetic values are relatively special and require special exceptions or abnormalities with a high sequence level to provide relevant characteristics. 】
After looking at the explanation in his mind, Shen Xing nodded slightly.
At present, the abnormality of this human specimen is only at a medium to high level, and its characteristics are not yet high enough to provide memetic value for itself.
After thinking about it, Shen Xing chose the mental antibody.
Today's mental antibodies are more difficult to obtain, because you must obtain a sequence chain and generate a sequence panel before you have the opportunity to increase the strength of the mental antibodies.
Apart from this, no other method has been found for the time being. Unlike physical strength, it can be increased by absorbing abnormal characteristics.
The mental antibody progress bar under the corner of his eye suddenly started to increase sharply after he chose to add points. The original 6.5 progress bar was like entering cheat mode, swish, swish, swish, until it reached 11 progress bars. Stop slowly.
The attribute values formed after converting the latent skills were indeed powerful enough, and Shen Xing was immediately overjoyed!
Now it seems that I was right to choose this meme value.
However, there is one thing he needs to pay attention to, and that is the meme progress bar under the corner of his eye. It seems that the meme value that can be loaded at one time cannot exceed 50 points, because the progress bar is incomplete, and the other end is not closed, but is missing. .
If the energy is loaded too much, it will overflow directly from the leakage hole and cannot be saved.
This should be related to the fact that the sequence chain completed by Shen Xing was incomplete.
However, these will not affect normal use for the time being.
Seeing the soaring mental antibodies, Shen Xing took the big tree sculpture over again. After the text prompt came out in his mind, he immediately activated the command to absorb characteristics, and at the same time added the idea of activating "characteristic transformation".
A characteristic energy from the abnormality itself entered Shen Xing's body. This characteristic energy directly added to the body's strength attribute.
Seeing that the body strength progress bar began to rise, it finally stopped at 110% of the value of the body.
This big tree anomaly is probably at the same level as the dry well anomaly, or even a little worse. It's just that its characteristics are a bit weird and special, but the magnitude of the characteristics is not as high as the dry well anomaly.
[Two new latent skills were detected, and at the same time it was detected that the host had activated "Characteristic Transformation". Are the detected skills directly converted into one of the three attribute values of physical strength, mental antibodies and memes? 】
Shen Xing still gave the order as before: "Show this latent skill first."
He needs to understand it first before deciding whether to directly transform these skills. If he encounters a good latent skill that is complementary to the latent skills he currently possesses, he can complete the integration through "feature aggregation".
Text prompts popped up in my mind.
[Latent Skill: Tree Body
Method: Active skills
Effect: The host can use this skill to disguise itself as a tree, which can have effects on humans and anomalies. During the period of disguise as a tree, the host can increase its defense strength to three times the current body strength.
Consumption: two progress bars mental power
Side effects: There is a certain chance that the limbs will become numb, or even become rigid in the shape of branches, lasting no less than 5 hours. 】
"This skill is not easy to use." Shen Xing directly denied it.
First of all, the side effects are too great, and disguising as a tree is not as good as static invisibility. If this skill and static invisibility can complement each other and make up for each other's shortcomings, then that is what Shen Xing wants.
He looked directly at Dashu's abnormal second latent skill.
[Latent Skill: Instantly fall into a dream
Method: Active auxiliary skills
Effect: Within a certain range centered on the host, you can spray the enchanted baby's breath silently and control the breath to invade the target, causing the selected target to fall asleep instantly. This dream is different from ordinary dreams. If it is a range attack, all targets within the range will have dreams intertwined and cannot wake up.
Consumption: Depending on the size of the range and the strength of the target, different levels of mental power are consumed.
Side effects: none. However, this skill requires the Meiying's breath as an important aid, and the Meiying's breath needs to be prepared in advance. 】
Shen Xing's eyes lit up slightly as he stared at these words.
When he and Mou Ling fell asleep instantly, it turned out to be because of the Meiying's breathing. It was not a real mental attack. No wonder his mental antibodies didn't react at all!
But this thing is good, it has no side effects, and it also maintains powerful attack skills. When the Meiying breathes enough, it can make the target fall asleep instantly.
I don’t know if I can make the messenger of the black domain fall asleep, but I can really give this a try.
Shen Xing gave up "Characteristic Transformation" and retained this latent skill, but still used "Characteristic Collection" to group "Instant Dreaming" with other skills.
But what kind of ghost is this enchanted baby's breath? How to get it? Maybe you can ask the cat doll then.
After finally digesting all the gains this time, Shen Xing let out a long sigh of relief.
At present, his worries have been temporarily resolved. Not only is he no longer worried about the early occurrence of alienation, but also his strength has been greatly improved after controlling it through the memetic ability. There is no doubt about this.
He packed up the wood carvings that had absorbed the characteristics and placed them neatly on the wooden shelf. He came down from upstairs. At this time, Feifei and Xia Hongyu had just taken a bath together. They were wearing pajamas and both had a fragrant smell. They had just walked in from next door. come over.
Xia Hongyu said: "Girl, if you insist on coming here with you, I'll leave it to you. I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, so I might leave early in the morning."
"Thank you for your hard work these past two days." Shen Xing pulled Feifei over and smiled at Xia Hongyu.
"Aunt Xia bought me several more beautiful clothes." Feifei said.
"Then did you say thank you?" Shen Xing asked with a smile.
Feifei shook her head: "No, but I cooked some good dishes for her, and she said they were delicious."
Xia Hongyu laughed and turned to Shen Xing: "It may take two weeks for me to come back after I leave tomorrow. Do you have anything to say?"
Shen Xing suddenly remembered something, said "Wait a minute", then walked upstairs, quickly came downstairs, took a small hanging wooden sculpture of his and handed it to her.
"Didn't you say you wanted me to give you this? It's a little small, but it's easy to carry."
Xia Hongyu took a look and found that although the wood carving was of Shen Xing, it was still cartoon-like, and she couldn't put it down.
"Be safe out there." Shen Xing warned.
"Well, thank you!" Although Xia Hongyu was smiling, her face turned a little red.
