After returning to the hotel just now, Shen Xing took out the unusual wood carving that had absorbed the milky white stone and studied it carefully.
Then he learned that this thing is called "Happy Stone".
This abnormal surface body is a stone, but after being absorbed by the wood carving, its surface body was not absorbed along with it, but only the essence inside it, which was the so-called "God of Joy" in Wang Zhendong's mouth, was sucked in Wood carving.
Then Shen Xing had a second thought, so he released Achai again, asked him to return to the hotel, and stole all the surveillance footage there of him going to the corridor. He also stole surveillance footage from other places, causing confusion and making it impossible to accurately verify. .
Then he asked Achai to stay near the conference room and eavesdrop on more news.
In Shen Xing's opinion, the wooden sculpture in front of him was definitely not suitable for children.
Because after just looking at it for a moment, he could feel the blood pores on his skin squirting and his heartbeat speeding up slightly.
Although this feeling is not as exaggerated as when seeing the body of the Happy Stone, if the viewer's concentration is slightly poor, it will definitely be affected.
If children see it, they may start growing fur in advance. Yes, that means the beard.
This thing can convey an instinctive desire to the people who watch it. Once this desire is conveyed, it is like an infectious disease, which may quickly spread within a certain range.
Of course, there must be a purpose for doing this. For example, while conveying desires, the Happy Stone may also be collecting certain human emotions, which may have a great effect on the Yeyin Organization.
For another example, you can indirectly control these business leaders by passing on desires to realize a certain future plan of the Ye Yin organization.
In short, before absorbing its characteristics, all this is just speculation.
After a slight hesitation, Shen Xing reached out and lightly touched the stone and wood sculpture of joy.
A text message appeared, asking whether to absorb the properties of the wood carving.
In fact, when he absorbed the abnormal characteristics filtered by the wood carvings, he divided them into two parts. One part was ordinary energy, which allowed him to achieve the purpose of physical strengthening, and the other part was to absorb latent skills, which is related to the abnormality itself. A similar skill.
"absorb."
Shen Xing issued the order and started the attribute transformation order at the same time, in case the characteristics related to "Happiness" would be absorbed by himself and unable to be transformed immediately.
The strength of the body began to accumulate, but now there is no visible change on the surface. All of this has been brought together by Shen Xing.
I can only see the progress bar under the corner of my eye reaching 250% body massacre...
Shen Xing looked at this number with some embarrassment, looking forward to whether it could go up again, or simply backslide and drop a little.
However, it just didn't move, and it stopped at the value of 250, showing its nakedness.
Not long after, the latent skills acquired after absorbing the properties of the Happy Stone popped out.
There are three latent skills. After seeing the first latent skill, Shen Xing's face suddenly turned red, and the picture appeared in his mind involuntarily. (River crab peeps, please readers can make up their own minds about the text information here...)
Originally, Shen Xing thought it was over, but when the second latent skill popped up, he not only blushed, but also let out a direct cry. He stared at these words in disbelief, his brows knitted together, thinking for a while, and holding his hands for a while. Simulating the constant gestures of two little people, and imitating various strange sounds from their mouths for a while, they looked very involved and fascinated. (Brain supplement 2...)
Finally, at the end, he couldn't help but burst out: "Holy shit, you can still do this?!"
Then I decided not to continue exploring for fear of going too far.
Then the third latent skill popped up.
At this time, Shen Xing was ready to choose a latent skill at random, then directly transform it and collect it.
However, he couldn't help but glance curiously, but he was stunned.
This latent skill is completely different from the previous two.
I couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or something else, but Shen Xing was still curious and looked carefully.
[Latent Skill: Collect Fear
Method: Passive skill
Effect: Through a certain medium, fear caused by humans or abnormalities can be collected in a form of energy, and through the host's will, the energy can be continuously converted into energy equivalent to the characteristic effect for absorption.
Consumption: This skill does not consume mental energy
Side effects: none. However, this kind of medium may not be obtained even if it takes a lifetime. 】
Seeing this introduction of latent skills that was different from the past, Shen Xing was a little confused.
He originally thought that this third latent skill should be similar to the two previous skills of Happy Stone. They were all abilities or special expertise in that area, but he didn't know that they were completely unrelated!
This turned out to be a kind of energy collection, using fear as a form of energy, and then performing the necessary transformation after collection.
It looks great!
[Three new latent skills were detected, and at the same time it was detected that the host had activated "Characteristic Transformation". Should the detected and selected skills be directly converted into one of the three attribute values of physical strength, mental antibodies and memes? ? 】
Shen Xing looked at the latest text prompt.
If you don't choose to absorb a certain latent skill, you can choose any one to directly convert the characteristics to improve other attribute values.
Originally, he was not prepared to choose it, because none of the latent skills from the Happy Stone were practical. Ahem~ The main reason was that Shen Xing currently had no suitable candidates, and instead it would bring back some sad memories for him.
So it's better not to touch it, not to mention he doesn't know if it will affect his state of mind if he really masters this treasure skill.
You know, as a wood carver, your state of mind is very important. If your mind is in a state of confusion and you only think about happy things, you may deviate from the direction of your sculptures in the future. That would be the worst thing.
But now after seeing the third latent skill, Shen Xing fell into hesitation.
Since you can collect fear, it seems to have nothing to do with the previous two skills. Do you want to make good use of it?
If you can really collect fear and convert it at all times, this will definitely be the most powerful auxiliary method to improve your ability so far, no one.
It’s just that the text also states that it needs to be collected through a medium.
If it were anyone else, they might consider finding or making a container, at least one that could hold this kind of pure energy, so they would definitely contact the special team to find a solution.
But after Shen Xing thought about it for a moment, he remembered his own wood carving, which was the only one that looked like him so far.
The wood carvings in his hands have the ability to absorb abnormalities, which can be regarded as a container, and it is also very powerful and can be forcibly absorbed.
If you use your wood carving as an energy medium, you should be able to absorb fear emotions from humans or abnormalities, and then convert them into the characteristic energy you need to improve your strength.
Not only can his own wood carving absorb the so-called fear, but it can be seen from the fact that it also quickly absorbs the toxins of the black poison into it. It should not be difficult for it to absorb fear.
Considering this level, Shen Xing did not choose characteristic transformation, but directly chose [Collect Fear].
Another line of font pops up.
[Selected. In view of the particularity of this latent skill, the host is requested to identify the medium as soon as possible within seven days, assign the skill to it, and activate the energy collection mode. 】
"Hmm, this skill is pretty good, awesome!" Shen Xing sighed secretly.
It is a perfect match with my own wood carving. If I use it well, the energy source is rolling. I can collect a lot of energy even if I don't have to go out and encounter abnormalities.
Of course, the premise is that you must cast a wide net and spread your wood carvings out more, so that you can have a stable source.
"Why seven days? It should be done by now."
As he spoke, he pulled out a spare piece of wood from the black field, sat in front of the mirror, and quickly carved a smiling version of himself.
This time, because the mentality is different from when he was lying on the hospital bed waiting to die, the expression of his character in the wood carving is no longer quiet and elegant, with a look of taking life and death indifferently, but reveals a passion for the sun that has gone through many vicissitudes of life.
“The craftsmanship is so good!”
Shen Xing couldn't help but admire the wood carving in his hands for a long time.
The idea of identifying the wood carving in his hand as a medium came to his mind, and then he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Although he could identify the wood carving by himself, he could not guarantee whether the wood carving would eventually be recognized as a medium by the sand sculpture system.
When you are worried...
[The skill grant has been determined and the energy collection mode has been successfully started. 】
The next second he received confirmation from the system.
However, Shen Xing is still a little uncertain, that is, if the medium is limited to the wood carving in his hand, then collecting the fear value will definitely be very slow. If every one of his own wood carvings can be collected, this "happy stone" will truly bring him The greatest joy.
Not long after, he carved another wooden sculpture of himself again, with the same expression and posture, and placed the two targets side by side on the table.
The two wood carvings cannot be exactly the same, there will definitely be slight differences, but if both can collect fear, this difference should be automatically ignored.
Although there is no text to indicate whether the second wood sculpture can collect energy, Shen Xing is ready to give it a try before making his next plan.
Early the next morning, he asked the hotel to find a cardboard box, put his two wood sculptures and some foam paper in it, and numbered the wood sculptures in advance.
Then he called the clerk in the big market in Heshan and explained that he had sent two of his own wood carvings. After receiving them, he would immediately place them in the most conspicuous place in the store. The price should not be too expensive, one thousand yuan each, and the label Be sure to clearly state the function of the wood carving: to drive away ghosts and ward off evil spirits.
And Shen Xingqian warned Wan that he must sell the wood carving marked No. 2 first. He wanted to see if the second wood carving he carved was effective.
It was already noon after arranging the things in hand, and Su Renxin didn't call him. It seemed that the old man also knew that it was not convenient for the two to contact him at this time.
After eavesdropping on the conversation between the old man from the Ye Yin organization and Lu Yuan last night, Shen Xing knew that they would probably all be investigating suspicious people during this period, and there was no need to stay here any longer.
However, he is not worried that the other party will find him. First of all, they will not be able to discover the things he hides in the black domain, and Lu Yuan does not know the function of his wood carving.
The body of the Huanxi Stone was still in place and had not been touched. Shen Xing even doubted whether they could understand the process of completely absorbing the characteristics of the anomaly without using the anomalous body.
After all, my own sand sculpture system is unique.
After leaving the hotel, Shen Xing did not go to the airport, but headed to the edge of the city.
During this period, he could feel that someone was following him, but after activating the "face-changing" skill of attribute collection, although it was no longer the previous effect of completely changing his face and identity, the subtle changes in his body , slight changes in the face, and most importantly, the temperament became more and more ordinary, reaching the point of being completely ignored, causing the person who was following him to quickly lose his target and be thrown away by him.
Shen Xing found a rental house on a remote street on the edge of the city and spent some money to rent it for a month.
This rental house was not for him to live in, so he quickly called Motu, the master of fine carving in Jingzhou, who was the abnormal multi-legged insect controlled by the cat puppet.
This is the agreement between Shen Xing and the cat puppet. If you want to find the cat puppet and you can't contact the cat puppet for a while, you should notify Motu. Motu will have his own way to contact the cat puppet immediately.
Through Motu, Shen Xing told it to notify the cat puppets to come to the central city of Ningzhou in the near future, and he would wait for her here. If possible, he would bring a few controllable puppets, not handsome men and beautiful women, but more ordinary-looking puppets. The better.
I don’t know how the cat puppets got through, but she arrived in the evening of that day. However, those puppets will not be delivered until tomorrow afternoon.
Shen Xing was about to leave and gave a few instructions to the cat puppet, asking her to use the puppet to pay close attention to the movements of Lu Yuan and Wang Zhendong, and to find out who the dying old man was who was projected yesterday. If you discover anything, report it to yourself immediately, and pay attention to protecting your own safety to avoid being discovered by Ye Yin or people from the special task force.
Because people in the night often deal with anomalies, if they want to deal with the cat doll, they may use unimaginable means to deal with her.
After arranging the cat puppet, Zhou Dao called from a new mobile phone number and asked about the status of his investigation.
At this time, Shen Xing also learned that the special investigation team in the central city of Ningzhou was also investigating the last ceremony of the Ningzhou Chamber of Commerce. They had not taken any action because they could not find an opportunity to close the network.
He told Zhou Dao the news he found out that day. The dying old man Achai saw became the focus of Zhou Dao's attention. After Shen Xing's description, Zhou Dao planned to make a portrait and compare it with the population registration information of the Public Security Department. Find out who this old man is.
And Zhou Dao is also guessing that the old man is most likely Ye Yin's biggest boss.
According to Zhou Dao, Shen Xing guessed that a huge dark network that had been hidden so far was slowly opening up under the organization of the special task force to the internal personnel of the Yeyin organization and the rebellious Public Security Bureau and the special task force.
They are waiting for the opportunity to finally confirm the public identity of each important person in society, and then close the net together at the same time.
Although the existence of the Yeyin Organization is of great benefit to the reduction of anomalies, it is also very harmful, because they will not choose preservation methods because they care about the lives of the people, and may even sacrifice innocent people to achieve their goals. the goal of.
But Shen Xing didn't know what caused the special headquarters to make such an important decision.
Perhaps, the special headquarters discovered some information that Shen Xing did not have at all, and this information was enough that they could not ignore it, so they acted urgently.
"Thank you for your hard work!" After listening to Shen Xing's story, Zhou Dao said on the phone: "You can go home and have a good rest now. You don't have to think about these things anymore. We will make arrangements in the future."
Shen Xing smiled: "I can't rest, I have to go to Kunzhou to investigate the news of Ye Ting's disappearance."
Zhou Dao was a little surprised: "Is there any clue?"
Of course he knew very well that Shen Xing had never given up looking for Ye Ting.
Shen Xing replied: "There are always clues, it just depends on which one is true."
"If you need help from my colleagues in the special task force over there, I can notify Team Leader Gu Fei to handle it." Zhou Dao expressed concern.
"No need for the time being." Shen Xing shook his head, "I will notify Gu Fei once the clues are confirmed to be true and help is needed."
