Chapter 18 Nameplate
"I don't like that thing." Sun Hang said bluntly.
"The lycanthropy inhibitor is a special drug specially developed for her by the institute. You don't have to use it if you want to." Yang Qi said, "Besides, your infection process is very stable and your body has no signs of mutation. You are completely You can live the same life as a normal person.”
"But this also means that I am weak now, right?" Sun Hang looked at his hands, "In addition to knowing that I am infected with the deception virus, and often salivating over deceptions, it seems that I also There’s nothing special about it…”
"Every hunter's ability must be discovered by himself, not to mention that your source of infection is extremely special." Yang Qi said, "So far, you are the only human being infected by Taotie."
"Is Taotie special?" Sun Hang asked.
"It's very special, because it only eats other weird things, and never infects other things... Your appearance is enough to turn dozens of research papers related to Taotie into a pile of waste paper." Yang Qi's His expression was a little complicated, "And Taotie's abilities are very malleable, for example..."
Yang Qi paused here and glanced at Wang Xiyi who was lying on the balcony railing looking into the distance from the corner of her eye, "Suppose, I mean suppose, if you eat her, there is a high probability that you will Obtain the beast-like ability of the 'Night Fury'. This ability may be a defective version or a stronger evolved version."
"So, as long as I keep swallowing monsters, I can become stronger?"
"Theoretically, this is true, but the risk of doing so is very high." Yang Qi raised three fingers. "First, there are some monsters whose characteristics and abilities conflict with each other. If you swallow these two monsters at the same time, , it is very likely that "food poisoning" will occur; secondly, there are some monsters that are much stronger than you, even stronger than Taotie. If you swallow them, you will not only If you are unable to digest their abilities, you will be exploded by them or reversely assimilated by them; thirdly, every time you swallow a strange thing, it is equivalent to being re-infected with the strange virus... Taotie itself is a strange thing, so it is naturally fearless , but you are different. Every time you devour, it means you are one step closer to becoming a monster, and one step further from being a human being.”
"It sounds like this ability has great side effects." Sun Hang smacked his lips and glanced at the delicious dish sprinkled with coriander on the balcony.
If I eat Wang Xiyi, the person who "eats coriander" every day will become me, right?
Just thinking about it is enough to make Sun Hang's scalp feel numb.
"It's very big, and we have very little information related to Taotie... I actually still haven't figured out why the teacher asked me to be your direct person in charge. Logically speaking, an important specimen like you ’, he should take over it himself,” Yang Qi sighed.
"Perhaps your teacher has regarded you as his successor." Sun Hang said casually, opened the door of the villa and walked in.
The door of the villa uses a biometric lock. As soon as Sun Hang walked in, before his hand touched the door handle, he heard a "click" and the tongue lock had automatically retracted.
"I entered your identification information into the door lock when I was in the research institute." Yang Qi said, "From now on, this is your new home."
Sun Hang walked into the villa and looked around - the indoor layout was very empty, almost all traces of the previous owner's residence had been erased, all the furniture and daily necessities had been replaced with new ones, and an oblate sweeping robot was cleaning the villa. Scratching back and forth on the smooth floor of the foyer.
"Are you satisfied?" Yang Qi asked.
"Very good." Sun Hang walked to the refrigerator, opened the door, and found that it was already filled with several compartments, including fresh fish, meat, vegetables, and fruits, as well as quick meals for lazy people that can be eaten by heating them in the microwave.
"If you need a housekeeper or a nanny, we can also arrange it for you." Yang Qi said, "But most hunters like to live alone, except for the guy who was sacrificed last time..."
"What happened to that guy?"
"He didn't ask for a housekeeper or a nanny. He applied to the institute for three young and beautiful girls to live with him." Yang Qi said helplessly.
"Then you agreed?" "Yes, but we only sent one person there."
"Who?"
"Wang Xiyi...she directly broke three of the guy's ribs and crushed two of his fingers...After that, the guy never dared to make such a request again," Yang Qi said.
"Wang Xiyi is so strong?"
"Among all the monster hunters in the entire Xiazhou Federation, her strength ranks at the forefront... It's a pity that she may not have much time left." Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh when she said this. tone.
"Why? Is she dying?"
"When she first came to Tianfu City, the injection frequency of inhibitors was once every half month, but now, it has become so frequent that she has to inject inhibitors four times a day to barely maintain her human form." Yang Qi said, "Although The inhibitor has been iterated to the fifth generation, but its effect is getting worse and worse. When the inhibitor is completely ineffective on her, she may never become human again."
"Can she still maintain human self-awareness in her animal form?"
"It's difficult. In the state of animal transformation, human self-awareness will continue to fade. If it is transformed into a beast for a short time, it will not have much impact... If it remains in the state of animal transformation for a long time, it will completely lose its humanity and become a treacherous person. It's just a matter of time." There was a hint of worry in Yang Qi's tone.
"..." Sun Hang was silent for a few seconds, then took out an apple from the refrigerator and took a bite.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Okay, you can stay here today. I'm going back to the research institute. If you have any needs or questions, just call me directly." Yang Qi said, "The one assigned to you by the Investigation Bureau All restrictions on mobile phones have been lifted. Of course, if you want to get a new mobile phone, you can.”
"Go slowly, don't send me away, and drive carefully." Sun Hang sat down on the sofa while chewing an apple.
After Yang Qi left, the empty villa suddenly became deserted, except for the slight "rustling" sound made by the sweeping robot as it slid by.
"New home..." Sun Hang raised his head again and looked at the indoor furnishings, murmuring, "Will this be my home from now on..."
He took out the metal nameplate from his pocket and gently rubbed the word "Sun Hang" on it with the pad of his thumb... For a moment, a strange idea came to Sun Hang's head.
"It would be nice if this nameplate were gold."
However, just as his fingertips swiped across the nameplate again, the originally silver-white stainless steel was actually plated with a golden color!
Before Sun Hang could be shocked, a tingling sensation deep in his brain that had not appeared for a long time suddenly surged over him!
