"As for overclocking status..."
As he spoke, Zang Ti glanced at the three of them, and finally landed on Quan Hu, who was busy working on his meal.
"It's just you, Menyouping."
"...Huh?" Quan Hu, who was chewing a burger, hummed, put down the food in his hand, considered it briefly and said:
"The overclocking status is limited to my knowledge and personal understanding during training. If there is something wrong, please ask the team leader to make it up."
"Measure." Zang Tiao nodded.
At this time, Quan Hu looked at Zuo Dao and said seriously and cautiously:
"The overclocking state can be generally understood as a power that exceeds the limits of the original ability through spells or rituals. It will also bring immediate negative effects."
Quan Hu said this, and then he gave an example:
"Let me use the example of the traitor named Duan Qiang you met at the nightclub a few days ago."
Zuo Dao nodded. At this time, he was well-behaved, serious, and a good student. His image was almost imprinted on his face.
He even noticed that the "former master" was too emotionally dull, so he deliberately added to his soul, trying to fully develop the image of a studious young man at this moment, just for the sake of——
Get more knowledge.
There is only one word in his mind: get lost.
If you don't make progress at this time, you will shed tears when you are reckless.
This is the first leftist thought.
Of course, the three people present had no idea that Zuo Dao could have such rich inner activities in such a short period of time.
Seeing Zuodao's nod and eagerness to learn, Quan Hu spoke calmly:
"The arm you used to take photos of Tong Yan was one of the costs of ritual overclocking."
Quan Hu said, picked up the internal terminal, slid it, and finally handed it to him.
Zuo Dao took over the terminal and read it carefully, and found that it was Duan Qiang's information, and it was very detailed.
"Turn over to the column of personal abilities." Quan Hu said.
Zuo Dao followed his words and looked down, and he saw that there were not many names listed in it, and one of the abilities and introduction caught his attention.
"Rituals: Secret Wheel Turning" (Unlocked)
"Record number: 4-02752"
"Ritual composition: ominous"
"Characteristics: A small-scale "domain" achieves the "transfer" effect"
"Price: flesh and blood will wither, and once the ritual is activated, the caster will continue to have physical tissue atrophy."
"Plan: It is necessary to equip the body with active drugs for a long time. Using them in advance during the execution can effectively prevent them. Taking them in time after the execution can also save them."
"Have you seen the ritual called the secret wheel rotation?" Quan Hu asked.
"I see," Zuo Dao raised his head and said, "There are many things I don't understand, such as nouns."
"There is no need to say more about the ritual category. Here in the rating, we will rate everything related to mystery. It is divided into seven levels from 6 to 0, and then there is the number. The higher the level, most of the time it will represent The higher the effect, cost, and mastery difficulty, Duan Qiang's level 4 is already difficult to master.
"According to on-site analysis, Duan Qiang did not perform the ritual immediately when he fought with the nightclub owner, possibly out of consideration for a negative state. However, some major crisis must have occurred afterwards, and it was difficult to break away from the regular ritual, so he finally chose the 'overclocking state'. However, we don’t have the details yet.
"The technique you performed before turned it into a sword. I personally estimate that it was only level 6 if I were to rate it."
Quan Hu said this, and Zang Ti agreed and added:
"Assuming there are no new expansions in the future."
After finishing speaking, Zang Ti took over the speech and continued:
"The rating does not change forever. The premise is that it changes and is recorded by us. For example, Duan Qiang's ability was not so detailed originally. In the past, the file only had a brief summary and would be kept strictly confidential. It was only after he betrayed Li Jia In the days that followed, after we caught some of his teammates, we gradually collected and sorted them out."
"According to the subsequent analysis by intelligence personnel, Duan Qiang's overclocking state can reach a certain distance and travel through the environment, but the cost is the permanent loss of physical tissue. Generally speaking, it is a very good ritual, but it is a pity that it will not be possible in the future. It will just become a file.”
Zang Tiao said with some pity.
Zuo Dao listened carefully, gathered his thoughts for a moment and asked:
"Team leader, can you understand that many of the relevant things recorded by our General Affairs Bureau may never be seen again?"
Zang cried and nodded:
"Yes, but there is one thing that needs to be corrected. It is not actually the General Affairs Bureau's record. It is the Observation Center that is responsible for this work."
"I see."
"Then I'll give you a question." Zang Tiao flicked the cigarette butt into the ashtray:
"What do you think is different about today?"
After hearing this, Zuo Dao had some thoughts in his mind, but he took some time to think deeply:
"In the past, I only learned about some of the business processes of our General Affairs Bureau. Today, I feel that everyone seems to be teaching me some very, very internal things."
Zang Tiao snapped her fingers:
"That's right, now it's your business. Do you want to hear the good news or the bad news first?"
"bad news?"
"The good news is that due to some special circumstances, your original long formal member assessment process will be waived. In other words, you can become a formal operator of the General Affairs Bureau at the last minute."
Zang Ti deliberately pretended not to hear what he said, and let Zuo Dao scratch his nose before saying:
"It's no surprise that the bad news also happened at this stage?"
"Indeed," Zang Tiao agreed:
"Due to a certain unwilling department and some obstacles within our General Affairs Bureau, originally you only needed to complete some relevant assessments to become a formal member, but now... you may have to compete for the job.
"It's okay to succeed. If you fail, you will lose this fast track and go through a long stage again, and I will be very unhappy."
As he spoke, his smile was cold, as if he was remembering unpleasant people and things.
She looked at the boy as if to say: Don't even think about touching him.
Zuo Dao replied seriously:
"I will try my best not to embarrass the team leader."
"Although it is to satisfy my own competitiveness, this opportunity is indeed extremely rare and will be very helpful. At the same time, my team so far only has Menyou Ping and Xiaotong, which is very short of manpower. To sum up, I need your formal admission."
Zang Ti did not try to make a big deal or take a high profile. She explained her personal emotional reasons and practical pros and cons to the leftist.
After observing that Zuo Dao showed no resistance or regret, Zang Ti continued:
"Then let's take a look at your competitors first. I think you are familiar with them."
As she said that, she took out a piece of information from her suitcase and handed it to Zuo Dao. At the same time, she glanced at Tong Yan and Quan Hu, the two people who were working hard, as if they were complaining about whether they could eat slower and save some chicken wings.
This look was ignored by the two team members who were very familiar with each other. Tong Yan even grabbed two sticks, gave one to Quan Hu, and happily took another one.
Zuo Dao, who was a little confused, took the information and was surprised when he saw the photo:
"Zhang Chonglin...is it actually him?"
The photo in the file is of the middleman, nightclub owner, and nicknamed Fatty.
And his real name turned out to be this.
"Yes, that's him." Zang Ti, who was rarely willing to put down his cigarette, joined the food-grabbing group. He replied vaguely, not forgetting to push a box to Zuo Dao to signal not to be too "uptight."
“I didn’t notice this fat man before, and it wasn’t until he was exposed that day that I realized he was a foreshadowing for another group in our department.
“My daily job is fishing and law enforcement. Small problems are ignored and big problems are transformed into achievements.
"His 'recruitment order' was three years earlier than yours. In fact, even if he doesn't get involved in this matter, he will soon become a formal member."
In her words, Zang Tiao expressed dissatisfaction and confusion.
Zuo Dao was also a little worried. He only had so much strength on paper, so he couldn't say he was unsure about competing with such an experienced player.
It's just that it's still a bit of a headache to successfully get on the job without exposing any abnormalities at all.
"To be honest, team leader, I feel this is an asymmetrical competition."
Zuo Dao tells the truth.
"Yes," Zang Tiao replied matter-of-factly. She looked at the boy with deep meaning:
"No, I'm taking a long vacation. After all, catching Li Jia and the Mist Ritualist is not a matter of a day or two. I'm going to arm you to the teeth and train you to the bone~?"
As he spoke, Zuo Dao thought about it and came up with only one meaning.
——He is going to be arranged.
"Sure enough, the workplace is all a lie. People who clearly promised not to get involved -"
