When the word [Legendary Prosthetic Body] was spoken from the child's mouth, even Yuanye couldn't help but his heart beat a little faster.
Nothing else, just because the allure of the item behind this word is too powerful.
In the underground world of Yingzhou, the most enduring and popular counterattack story among the people at the bottom is that a low-level person accidentally obtained a legendary prosthetic body and embarked on the road to rise.
Countless entertainment works are based on this background. Mewtwo with similar themes has become so popular in Mewtwo rental stores that the lightly modified animation of the different world before Yuanye traveled through the world was even worse than the worst-received period among domestic otakus. Times or even nine times, everyone has developed the "good habit" of fast forwarding when seeing similar plots.
But even so, Mewtwo with this kind of background is still being produced continuously. Even if they know the vulgarity of this kind of plot, people can't help but imagine that they can have such an adventure.
The reason is very simple, that is, if a person picks up a legendary prosthetic body, then he can really change his destiny and reverse his life. This is the power of the legendary prosthetic body, and absolutely no one will question it.
However, the reason why the story of the people at the bottom getting a legendary prosthetic body is called a legend is because it is almost impossible to happen, and it is the kind of extremely small probability event that will be directly reset to zero in statistics.
Because even for giant corporations and the "nobles" behind them, the distribution method for prosthetics of this level is a strict rationing system. Even a person with the ability to undergo full-body transformation is considered high among the upper class. If a true prosthetic person with extremely rare qualifications wants to obtain a legendary prosthetic body, he can only spend a huge amount of political and commercial resources in exchange.
It is conceivable that it is basically impossible for such extremely precious items to be lost among the people.
But there are always eventualities.
In the underground world, the legendary prosthetic body has a more famous nickname-[Blood Crown].
Whether it is because of the king-like power symbolized by its unparalleled power, or because the process of any legendary prosthetic body entering the market cannot be clean, it must be stained with blood, and it must be those who stand in the clouds and look down. The blood of the "big shot" of living beings.
Every "Blood Crown" falling from the clouds to the ground will definitely bring about a lot of killing and a lot of blood.
In reality, there is no plot in which a baby can rise steadily after seeing a baby. If you want to stand on top of others and become a person above others, there is one and only one way.
And after wading through the sticky river of colloid-like blood and passing through the twisted jungle composed of rotting corpses, the person who is lucky enough to wear the crown, whether it is the lucky one at the beginning or the powerful person who entered halfway, They will all be given honorific titles such as [Crown Holder] or [Crown Wearer].
People on the edge of the underground world are more accustomed to calling them [Shadow Emperor] using the term from the most popular movie Mewtwo after this story became popular.
Unlike secular emperors, the shadow emperors of the underground world do not like to show off their power, because the power and power of secular emperors come from the objects they show off, while the power and power of shadow emperors flow in their blood.
Therefore, the shadow emperors in the underground world will add "suspected" before their honorifics. The shadow emperors have almost no public records of their fights. Which part of the legendary prosthetic body they possess is? What are its special abilities? These questions remain unanswered, and even whether they hold legendary prosthetics is hidden behind layers of fog.
The Shadow Emperor only exists through word of mouth among people. In 2077, when technology is extremely advanced, not even the most basic information about its impact exists.
A very small number of them do not add "suspected" before their names. The Shadow Emperors who choose to publicly admit that they have legendary prosthetics maintain close relationships with giant corporations without exception, and are semi-public "corporate dogs."
But this does not mean that those shadow emperors with "suspected" in front of their names are not strong. On the contrary, it is precisely because they are so ridiculously strong that they are qualified to be suspected of being shadow emperors.
Even if it is just a person who is suspected of being the Shadow Emperor, as long as people begin to suspect that he may be the Shadow Emperor, then he will naturally have great influence in the underground world, and every move will cause extremely huge shocks. The influence of these terrifying existences The prestige is unimaginable.
To put it simply, if there is a person suspected of being the Shadow Emperor who wants to join the Edo Federation, as long as he wants to, he will be the one sitting in the position of commander-in-chief.
Because this is what the current Edo Federation Chief Executive did. As a shadow emperor who suddenly appeared, when he expressed his willingness to join the Edo Federation, he was already the new Chief Executive of the Edo Federation.
Everything happened naturally, no one expressed any objection, as if it was a matter of course, just like the current president of Edo United said to Genya, "I like this rule very much, so I asked for the position of president." It's so easy at times, but the difficulty is actually about the same as the effort it takes to say a casual sentence.
"So, the new leader of the Black Dragon Society." Seeing Yuan Ye's move, the child stood up on his own initiative, "Do you want to become the emperor?"
The child's figure is not fully developed, but perhaps due to the influence of others, his movements are no different from those of an adult. His movements reveal a sense of confidence, as if he is a child delivering the Pope's words, and even the king's crown can speak for itself. And decide.
Yuan Ye was stunned at first and subconsciously wanted to answer, but reason returned to his thoughts in time.
——Do I want to be the Shadow Emperor?
——I think about it, I really want to.
This is a conclusion that can be reached without thinking.
But the reply that Yuanye gave immediately was completely the opposite: "Really? A legendary prosthetic body? I have to say that it is indeed a very tempting thing, enough to make people rush around like moths chasing a flame, but it is very difficult. Unfortunately, I have no interest in this thing.”
"Let me tell you in advance that this is not about playing hard to get, using small means to gain an advantage in the negotiation, although I am not opposed to doing so." Before the child whose face changed after hearing his words was about to speak, Yuan Yuan Ye spoke in advance, "I really have no interest in legendary prosthetics."
"The reason is very simple." Yuan Ye stretched out two fingers, "First, the price of exchanging the legendary prosthetic body is probably to let us help you escape from the country to a safe place, or provide you with shelter."
Yuanye turned to look at the child, casting a questioning look, and received a nod of confirmation from the other party.
"This is because I need to investigate some things from the manatee, and I don't want others to know that I am investigating, so I expect you to be restricted in your freedom of movement. In layman's terms, it is imprisonment, but from another perspective it is also It provides you with shelter." Yuan Ye explained, "So this deal was not established from the beginning."
"Second." Yuan Ye retracted a finger, "I don't have the ability to keep a [Blood Crown]. When you are in danger because of holding something, the best way is to simply break up. It creates contact. That is, the best way to avoid being the blood on the crown is to not be the one chasing the crown."
