Chapter 323 You are safer here
Some people hate working at night, while others are just fishing.
In the laboratory, Zheng Yichen looked at Elena and Katrina who were busy. Katrina was preparing materials to deploy a powerful guardian magic to ensure that the power in the skull would not be leaked, and Ai Lina was ready to dig out everything inside.
By the way, thoroughly study the power of that mental parasitic monster.
"It will take a long time to dig out the required information. You can go and rest first." Elena said to Zheng Yichen. Zheng Yichen used hellfire many times in today's battle, and after returning this time , Zheng Yichen's physical growth situation is not very ideal.
The hair that best expresses his condition is that it grows relatively slowly. It seems that before his hair color returns to normal, it will not recover at such a high speed.
"Why rest? I'm here to take precautions." Zheng Yichen waved his hand, saying that he could rest assured here. Elena didn't say anything, she continued what she was doing.
After digging out the information, it was already dawn. Zheng Yichen was not sleepy, and the two witches were not very sleepy. Katrina did not dare to be careless. The more power she exerted, the more dangerous she could feel this thing.
If they were not in a world with a low environment like Long City, the two of them would have no resistance to this kind of power. However, with the addition of some powerful auxiliary props in a low environment, they can restrain this power. Mentally parasitic monster.
In one night, the spiritual parasitic monster sealed in the skull was completely eliminated, and Elena used necromancy to extract all the information the other party knew.
"This is a kind of evil spirit. The world the other party lives in is a world shrouded in 'negative'. Although it is dominated by humans, it is easy for some special beings to appear in the environment of that world, and the appearance of The conditions are very low, and this thing was born from a bloody sacrifice performed by the indigenous people of its native world."
Elena described the origin of this evil spirit.
"A negative world? I have never seen such a world."
"This is only a small part of the information. The other party can parasitize the spirit and obtain the memory of other creatures, so its There is a lot of information, and it will take a long time to record it all," Elena said, looking at the skull helplessly.
The skull is still 'burning'. The flame is not a normal flame, and has no substantial temperature. It is just an external visual effect. The essence of the flame is the decomposition of vitality and soul. A mixture of powers similar to 'spiritual power'.
She had made a wrong judgment before, thinking that this power was a mixture of pure vitality and spiritual power. In fact, it was not like that. After a night of research, she determined the nature of this power.
The mixture of the two powers results in the current power. Probably because the source of this power is an evil ritual, so this power is not a good thing. Ordinary people come into contact with this power without protection. This kind of power is easily affected. If the spirit is affected, the consequence will be serious distortion of the person's internal organs.
"Don't worry, since this thing has a lot of knowledge, it means that you can get more sponsorship in the next period of time." Zheng Yichen said to Elena, knowledge is something that witches can use , and the local forces in Longcheng also want to get it. Some local forces have caught the evil spirit clone, and the purpose is self-evident.
They all want to get the knowledge they want from the evil spirit clone, but since it is a clone, it is definitely not that complete.
“Follow-up operations will require Katrina’s help.”
"That's no problem. I'm not allowed to let strangers in now." Zheng Yichen smiled at Elena. Let professionals do this kind of thing.
Now that the skull was almost processed, when Zheng Yichen turned on thermal vision and looked at this thing, he found that the heat source inside did not have any condensed clumps, but was completely scattered.
This basically means that the evil spirit inside this thing is completely finished.
So, if a being in a higher environment is still so rampant after coming to a lower environment, that is asking for death.
Without any sympathy for this evil spirit, Zheng Yichen yawned. Just as he was about to go back home to catch up on some sleep, a car stopped in front of his house and An Ke got out of the car: " Excuse me, please let me rest at your place for a day.”
This woman has dark circles on her face, and her whole person is no longer as calm as before. You can see extremely obvious complaints and dissatisfaction on her face. This... is this the state of sleep deprivation when doing research?
Zheng Yichen felt that a certain image he had made up in his mind was gone. In his mind, such a person should be able to easily stay up late for a long time, obsessed with a certain research, even after completing the research. Balabala looks exhausted, but talks about her achievements with great satisfaction...
But Anke's state is actually like this?
"Why?" Zheng Yichen asked. Her residence was not far from her. After the new partnership, An Ke didn't hide anything and directly told Zheng Yichen why she moved here.
“Because it is safer here, I met many colleagues when I went to Beihu last night, and many of them wanted to kill me.”
"Have you offended them?" Zheng Yichen got out of the way.
An Ke nodded: "Some of them have been offended by me. I have taken away a lot of the research materials they once liked, and some of them have achieved results that are completely inferior to mine. , were beaten badly in some conflicts."
"So they want to kill you instead of trying to completely defeat you technically?"
"Peers. Isn't that what competition is? If you really want to win technically, there won't be much. The easier way to win is to let the incomparable person die physically."
Ah, Zheng Yichen was speechless, An. Ke continued: "I made some additional discoveries in Beihu last night. In order to get those things, the An family and other families fought civilly and violently. Because I didn't have enough sleep at the time, I was a little bit cruel, so I acted cruelly. .”
"Now it's me who will bear the consequences."
"...Is there no one at the An family? How dare you do this?" Zheng Yichen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly, since An Ke is like this That's awesome. No matter what, the An family should provide her with enough protection, right?
"It was my own suggestion to come to you. Didn't I come here safely?" "You are causing trouble for me." Zheng Yichen felt a little unhappy.
But Anke seemed very calm: "Because there is really no place more complete than yours. Where is your bedroom? Don't wake me up when I'm asleep. That’s it.”
Hearing An Ke's strange words, Zheng Yichen took her directly to the guest room. An Ke was not very satisfied with the guest room, but he didn't say anything.
Of course she didn't come to Zheng Yichen specifically to attract trouble, but what happened last night made the relationship between the major families in Long City somewhat stiff.
Temporarily stiff, as long as the benefits are sufficient later, it will definitely return to normal, but now it is stiff because of benefits. This stiffness will not appear too stiff until the power in this matter is completely digested. Too flexible.
Zheng Yichen showed enough fighting power last night. People from those families will conduct additional investigations on him. Zheng Yichen’s identity will not be kept secret for long. The An family knows and cooperates with him. Many Dusk Hunters have cooperative relationships, but that kind of cooperative relationship is not like that with Zheng Yichen.
Some of her research materials were provided by the Twilight mercenaries. The cooperation between those Twilight mercenaries and Anjia was that Anjia purchased the things from those Twilight mercenaries, and the price was very high, and they would also give them to those Twilight mercenaries. Mercenaries have some products that Anjia does not sell to the outside world.
Therefore, this kind of cooperation is very loose. If other families offer higher prices, those Twilight mercenaries will decisively give up settling down and go to another family.
Zheng Yichen is in a different situation.
Her coming here is also a statement to the outside world. Even if other families know the identity of Zheng Yichen's successor through the twilight mercenaries, they are already a step too late. Do they want to compete? That would be a huge investment, and you might not be able to gain Zheng Yichen's trust. After all, trust takes time to build.
And their level of trust is not low now, and they have completely surpassed others in terms of time.
The other thing is that she is really being targeted now.
Among the special things discovered in Beihu last night, in addition to the floating or sinking ashes, there were also some special 'crystals'. That kind of thing An Ke temporarily called the 'essence of life' was that The remains of the giant skeletal beast after it was blown up.
After some testing, it was found that that thing was not produced naturally, but was a product formed by a high degree of condensation under the influence of external pressure. The function of that thing is to affect the level of life, change the form of life, etc. , can do it all, in Anke's view it is simply the 'philosopher's stone' in the eyes of an alchemist.
Although Zheng Yichen's blood is special, the withering nature of his blood prevents that special blood from being better utilized.
The essence of life discovered in Beihu is different. She has been trying to study and improve the level of biological life. However, most of the research results have resulted in distortion of the experimental body, which is not an improvement in the level of life. , and changing the life form... that is not an aberration.
Distortion means malignant. Alienation in abnormality is benign. After alienation, it is an existence that is different from ordinary people. Being different from ordinary people does not mean that it is not a human being. And the distortion in abnormal words is It's definitely not human anymore.
Changes in life forms include distortion, but what she wants is abnormality.
With an emphasis on the essence of life, Anke used some technologies that had not been used before, and even used hallucinogens separated from Zheng Yichen's blood, and successfully introduced them to most of his competitors. The An family got a lot of life essence. The situation at that time was that they could take most of it, but if they really take most or all of it...
The result will not be too good. That's right, that is really equivalent to an all-out war, but even so, the share of life essence taken away by the An family makes other families feel heartbroken and even incompetent and furious.
The part that was taken away will definitely not be spit out. The An family is not that weak, so they can only compete for the remaining half of the share. The situation is always miserable...
After that, An Ke was targeted, and some old opponents detected some familiar traces from those who were recruited, thus confirming that she was responsible for some things.
Of course, even if those people want to kill her, they can't do it openly. If they do, they will be ostracized by the entire circle. If you feel that she was killed so openly, do you still dare to attack people from other families? It doesn't matter if you do it secretly and not be brought to light, but it's another matter if it is brought to light.
Zheng Yichen’s fighting ability yesterday, as well as Zheng Yichen’s identity, in An Ke’s opinion, there is really no safer place than here. Those people don’t dare to bother here, and they can save a lot of money. If there is nothing wrong, she must be protected by strong enough armed personnel in other places. In addition to precautions, there are other secret agents.
It is troublesome to deal with and a waste of time.
After closing the door, An Ke didn't even think about taking a shower. He lay directly on the bed in the guest room, almost sleeping on the bed. Zheng Yichen felt an indescribable feeling when he looked at it. There were some other detailed changes, and he could be sure that An Ke was sleeping very deeply now.
Not to mention that firing a cannon in her ear would not wake her up, and any action that was not too obvious would definitely not wake her up.
"Good morning." After closing the door, he was originally going to go to bed, but after An Ke's troubles, he went out again and walked around the house twice. Not to mention, he discovered a lot. Some of the suspicious figures are very clever in hiding.
Zheng Yichen didn't notice it, but he had a plug-in. The thermal vision directly exposed the figures of those people to Zheng Yichen's eyes. Originally, he only got the heat sensation from some vampire monsters that didn't even have any special abilities. The visual characteristics have become so powerful after repeated strengthening.
Those people have professional equipment on them, and there are also hidden traces of this special power, but what Zheng Yichen’s thermal vision sees is no longer ordinary temperature radiation. The capture of this thermal sense Including the 'radiation' emitted by those special powers.
After walking around his home, Zheng Yichen returned home, took out a piece of paper, and drew something on it. A large irregular box represented his home, and then In the square frames of the buildings near him, Zheng Yichen drew many small circles with a red pen.
After that, he put this graffiti-like painting on the roof of his house. The painting could be seen by people as it fluttered in the wind. As long as he was not a fool, after seeing the content of the painting You can all think of the hint or warning in this.
Half an hour later, Zheng Yichen turned around his home again, and most of the people who could see the visual vision of the heat were less than half.
