Leo is also certain that if he uses the corpse collector's power without restraint to collect the corpses of powerful creatures to enhance his own strength, the final result will probably become an instinct like the corpse collector now.
Lower beings far beyond intelligence.
It is no exaggeration to say that if the corpse collector continues like this, then the bits of wisdom he has gained through the corpses of gods will be completely wiped out, and he will become a puppet of his own divine power.
Although the power of the Corpse Collector's Mark is full of drawbacks and dangers, it is not really without merit. Almost as soon as Leo understood the pros and cons of the Corpse Collector's Mark, he immediately thought of the most suitable place to use this power.
The higher the psionic level, the harder it is to break through. Leo has been a level 5 psyker for some time, although he has made great progress in witchcraft and has already reached level 5 in psionic abilities.
The top of the level psyker has even touched the threshold of the sixth level psyker, but it is still difficult to improve the level of psionic power.
According to his estimate, if nothing unexpected happens, it will probably take him a few more years to break through the current idle psychic energy, transform his psychic energy, and become a sixth-level psychic. As for what a seventh-level psychic needs.
I'm afraid it will take longer.
But now the appearance of the corpse collector's mark has given him an opportunity, an opportunity to easily cross the bottleneck when his spiritual power reaches the improvement bottleneck. Just like now, he estimates that he only needs to get a few corpses of sixth-level psykers.
, you can shorten the accumulated qualitative transformation time by several years, and easily cross this hurdle to become a true sixth-level psyker.
He even thought that when he reached the peak of the ninth-level psyker and needed to complete the final evolution of ordinary life forms and become an Omega-level advanced life form, he might be able to use the corpse of the Falcon God.
Let yourself cross this abyss that can stump countless psykers in the universe.
Just when Leo was about to continue sorting out the remaining knowledge conveyed in the Seal of the Corpse Collector, a rapid knock on the door pulled his thoughts back to the real world.
Leo, who was very dissatisfied, sensed through the spiritual network that the person knocking on the door was Old Beren, and it was not Old Beren alone, but also the captain of the Snow Queen. Judging from the expressions on their faces, they were very
Anxious, something seems to have happened.
Before sorting out the knowledge of the corpse collector's mark, Leo very carefully told old Beren not to disturb him unless the boat capsized, and he was already classified as a troublesome person in the old captain's mind, such as
The old captain would not come to him if there was no need. Now that the two of them appeared outside the door together, it was very likely that something had happened on the ship, and it was something that the two of them could not solve at all.
Thinking of this, Leo stood up, walked to the door, and opened the door. A burst of noise came from outside the cabin, which made him frown, but he still suppressed his displeasure and asked directly: "What happened?"
?”
Just as the old captain was about to speak, Old Beren said first: "Those people died suddenly yesterday, and a plague broke out on Shackles Island today. The first people to contract the plague were people on our ship, so the Sheriff of Shackles Island
The army and the garrison believed that we were the source of the plague, so they sealed the ship and sent all the sick people on the island to the ship."
When Leo heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly, and his mental net also spread out, surrounding the Snow Queen and the surrounding area of ​​the dock.
As Old Belen said, the surrounding area was indeed blocked, and not only the ships were blocked, but even the surrounding docks were also blocked.
The local garrison responsible for the blockade all put on a layer of thick leather clothing. This leather clothing could wrap the entire body. A layer of special fish oil was applied to the gaps in the leather clothing to block the air, and their faces were also covered with oil.
Wearing a special mask, the mask has a tube connected to a box on the waist. A large amount of medicine for purifying the air is placed in the box. They breathe the air through this box, which can block any plague viruses.
Even after so many years, the great plague that affected the entire world of Velen is still fresh in people's minds, and the prevention and control measures against the plague in various countries are also very complete.
Not long ago, the great plague in Miria City made all countries pay more attention to plague prevention and control. Now the protective leather jackets worn by these garrisons are all the latest type of prevention leather jackets, which were shipped not long ago to replace those in the warehouse.
What these people didn't expect was that these new equipment would come in handy so quickly.
On the ship, it was already overcrowded. All the original passengers had been moved to the high-end cabin. The remaining bottom cabins, even the supply cabin and the cargo cabin were vacated to accommodate patients sent from the city, and even some patients
They were placed directly in temporary shacks built on the blocked dock. A rough calculation calculated that there were at least several hundred people.
The symptoms on the surface of each of these people are like dysentery, and there are red spots on their faces. Although the color is wrong, these red spots remind many people of the patients during the great plague.
Dark spots on the body.
It has to be said that the people on Shackles Island are quite restrained. If they were placed in a city where great plagues had occurred before, none of these patients would survive now, and they would all be executed and burned. After all, their fear of the plague has been deeply rooted in their bones, and
This fear is also passed down from generation to generation.
"How could this happen?" After seeing this scene, Leo couldn't help but be stunned. He immediately used the mental network to carefully check the bodies of all the patients, and easily discovered the cause of these people's illness.
"Where are the bodies of those people?" Leo immediately asked Old Beren.
Before Old Beren could speak, the captain took the initiative to introduce: "There is a sealed room in the bottom cabin. After discovering something was wrong, they moved their bodies there."
Captain Leo Shi led the way, and the group soon arrived at the sealed room of the bottom cabin. In order to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in, the old captain sent two sailors to guard the outside.
Although these two sailors are members of the family, the fear of the plague is still rooted in their hearts. After all, during the great plague, many members of the family died due to the plague, so they all wore protective clothing.
Wrap yourself tightly and truly.
It's just that their protective clothing is outdated. Not only is it bulky, but there is no protective mask to cover the mouth and nose. For this reason, they had to find a piece of cloth, wrap it with some medicinal materials they thought were useful, and tie it to the cloth.
A simple breathing filter was made on it.
Because these things are made temporarily, they naturally cannot have a beautiful appearance. Coupled with the bloated protective clothing, they look like two heavy wine barrels.
The old captain seemed to know that the image of his two men was really embarrassing, so before Leo could speak, he took the initiative and said: "Open the door."
One of the guards couldn't help being surprised and said loudly: "Open the door, are you crazy? Open the door at this time..."
"I said open the door!" The old captain's face became even more ugly when his subordinates retorted like this, and he ordered almost through gritted teeth.
They felt that the old captain was not joking, and the two watchmen could also see that the old captain's heart was on the verge of rage, so they did not dare to ask or question any more, and hurriedly took out the keys and inserted them into the door.
Inside a cavity, twist the key at the same time to open the door of the sealed chamber.
Perhaps out of fear, the moment the door was opened, they all instinctively backed away some distance.
Seeing the actions of his men, the old captain suddenly felt that his face had been completely humiliated. He almost gritted his teeth and shouted at his two men: "Get out of here, you two guys, get out of here immediately, and let me see you again."
When you are here, I will tie you to the bottom of the boat and feed you to the fish."
After hearing the old captain's order, although the two sailors knew that they had annoyed the old captain, the best thing to do at this time was to stay where they were. However, in the face of the possible infectious plague, even if they felt sorry for the old captain,
Even though they were afraid, they still couldn't resist the fear of the plague, so after hearing the order, the two of them ran away without even hesitating.
The old captain looked at the two men disappearing at the end of the corridor, and suddenly felt that he should kill the two men immediately in order to calm down the anger in his heart.
However, Leo's action of pushing the door suppressed his anger. He stretched out his hand to stop Leo in a panic and said, "It's not safe. I'll prepare..."
Leo shook his head and said: "Don't worry, if you were infected, you would have been infected from the beginning, and you wouldn't have waited until now."
Without waiting for the old captain to make any other blocking actions, he just opened the door and walked in.
However, the moment the door opened, both Old Beren and the old captain were stunned by the sight of the sealed room behind the door, because they discovered that the empty sealed room that was supposed to only store a few corpses was now already
It turned into a botanical garden, with a large number of plants they had never seen growing throughout the sealed room.
However, Leo did not show any surprise at the scene inside the sealed room. He stepped inside, pushed aside the dense branches and leaves, and walked toward the middle of the cabin.
Old Beren and the old captain looked at each other, followed quickly without saying anything.
Soon the three of them arrived at the center of the room, and saw that the corpses of the treasure hunters originally placed on the ground had now turned into several thick tree trunks. The faces of these people could be seen on the tree trunks, and the plants in the room also
These are all the results of the spread of these tree trunks. If it were not blocked by the walls of the room, these branches and leaves might have grown outside, and these human-shaped tree trunks would have turned into several big trees.
Leo walked under these big trees, squatted down, reached out and dug at the roots of the trees close to the ground, and quickly took out several fruits that looked like hearts.
When he took out these fruits, the human-shaped trees immediately became much withered, and the surrounding branches and leaves quickly withered, and soon only a few branches of the main trunk were left.
"What's going on?" The old captain looked at this scene puzzled.
But Old Beren seemed to know something. He stared at the fruits in Leo's hand with a strange expression on his face.
"Do you know anything?" The old captain naturally noticed the obvious expression on Old Beren's face and asked in a deep voice.
"I thought this plant was extinct? I didn't expect..." Old Beren looked at the situation in front of him with an extremely ugly face. He murmured to himself, suddenly thought of something, and immediately said to the old captain: "You must have
There’s a way to get the news out, right?”
"Yes, I have a way to spread the news." Although the old captain didn't know why old Beren was so nervous, he knew that now was not the time to hide things, so he nodded and admitted.
Old Beren immediately pulled the old captain out, and said in a rather alarmist tone: "Let's go, I have news that I want to spread out immediately. This matter is too important! It is related to the safety of the entire world."
This is not the first time that Old Belen has worked on the Snow Queen. He can be said to be a regular customer of this ship and even has an exclusive cabin. Naturally, the old captain knows his identity very well. In the eyes of the other party, Old Belen can make Old Belen
Such a panic was definitely not a trivial matter, so I didn't ask any more questions and immediately followed Old Beren out quickly.
Leo didn't stay in this room for long, but he still had some things to do before leaving. He walked to the trees that the treasure hunters had mutated into, put his hand on the trunk, and started
According to the method he obtained, it seems that he can collect these humanized trees as corpses.
The result was very smooth. When Leo drew the power from the corpse collector's mark and wrapped the trees according to the method he knew, the trees disappeared from his eyes in an instant, and almost at the moment the trees disappeared, Leo felt that the corpse collector was coming from him.
A power surged out of the mark of the master, injected into his body, and integrated with his spiritual energy almost without any obstacles.
The spiritual energy in his body that had not been improved for a long time instantly broke through the gap at this moment and entered the sequence of the sixth-level psyker. Just as his spiritual energy level was improved, his body also
Transformation occurred under the influence, and patterns that looked like cosmic celestial bodies appeared on his face, and then quickly disappeared.
However, at this moment, all Leo's external perceptions have disappeared. He doesn't even know that his psychic level has crossed the threshold and become a sixth-level psyker. At this moment, he is concentrating on using his ability to reach the level of a ninth-level psyker.
Use your strong willpower to resist the interference waves that flow into your brain or soul along with that force, and strive to keep your thinking unaffected by the interference waves and stay awake.
I don't know how long it took before the interference wave gradually weakened and subsided. An unprecedented sense of fatigue immediately hit Leo's body and mind, causing him to feel dizzy. He needed to hold on to the wall to hold on.
Chapter completed!
