Lin Zheng was astute. When he heard Zhao Qiqi saying that she had heard something she shouldn't have heard, he pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that the murderer who destroyed Jiang Ling'er's entire family is something that even the Xuanyuan family cannot afford to offend?"
"good."
Zhao Qiqi nodded and said: "That night I visited the Xuanyuan family and found that Jiang Ling'er was called to the study by the head of the Xuanyuan family. After I went there, I heard them talking about the Jiang family's grievances.
I heard from the head of the Xuanyuan family that it is a force called the Ghost Sect, which acts strangely and unpredictably, and is vicious and cruel. Anyone who is attacked by them will have their families destroyed."
After hearing this, Lin Zheng continued: "The ghost sect is so difficult to deal with, but the Xuanyuan family saved sisters Jiang Ling'er and Jiang Mi'er. Naturally, you can't let others know, otherwise you will get burned. This is why you were attacked by the Xuanyuan family."
"exactly.
I was even worried that they would come after me to avoid further trouble."
Zhao Qiqi said a little worried.
"Were you exposed that night?"
Lin Zheng asked.
Zhao Qiqi thought for a moment and said, "Probably not."
"Then when you and Jiang Linger entered the Cave Heaven Secret Realm, did you and Jiang Ling'er act separately or together?"
In fact, Lin Zheng already knew about this problem by locating bacteria, but he couldn't say it directly.
"We work separately."
"That's no problem."
Lin Zheng said with relief: "You separated after entering the Cave Heaven Secret Realm. Jiang Ling'er didn't know that you were spying on her and investigating her, so naturally she wouldn't suspect you, at least not in a short period of time.
Even if you find out in the end, we will send troops to cover up the water and the ground, and I will help you."
"Do you still remember what you promised me before?"
Zhao Qiqi suddenly asked.
Lin Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "What?
Do you want me to cash in now?”
Zhao Qiqi said: "What I want you to do is to protect me personally in the days to come until I am able to protect myself."
"Personal protection?
you sure?"
Lin Zheng smiled playfully.
"I said before, as long as you want, I can be your woman.
What’s more, it’s just personal protection.”
Zhao Qiqi also pursed his lips and smiled, but the wound was pulled, and he immediately let out a painful groan.
"With your strength, you can be injured like this. Why do you believe that I can protect you?"
Lin Zheng asked.
"Have you forgotten what I practice?"
Zhao Qiqi reminded.
Lin Zheng recalled for a moment, showed an expression of disbelief, and asked: "You can't really predict the future, can you?"
"Although I haven't reached the level I want yet, I'm getting infinitely closer."
Zhao Qiqi said.
Lin Zheng couldn't help but ask: "Then can you predict what our relationship will be in the future?
Friend, enemy, or lover?"
"I'm still injured and can't figure it out.
But I can feel that you will be a very important person in my life in the future."
"If you say it, you haven't said it yet.
Okay, let me treat your wound again, the gauze has soaked through."
Lin Zheng said as he untied the gauze temporarily tied to her body.
"Can you do it?
Would you like to find a doctor for me?"
Zhao Qiqi's body trembled in pain, with tears in his eyes.
"I have specialized in first aid, so don't worry.
Bear with it."
Lin Zheng cut off Zhao Qiqi's clothes, then carefully cleaned the wound with disinfectant alcohol, and then sutured it. When everything was done, Guo Lin'er came back.
Lin Zheng asked Guo Lin'er to feed Zhao Qiqi some porridge, while he walked aside and closed his eyes to rest.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the gold-level scroll mission and obtaining a clone."
"Warm reminder: Avatar attributes can be viewed on the system sub-page!"
Lin Zheng now has several sub-pages, including System Locker, Happy Orchard, and Bionic Man, and now he has an additional clone sub-page.
After calling out the sub-page, I saw that the attributes of the clone were the same as those of the main body, but there was a percentage floating above the head, which said thirty percent.
Lin Zheng clicked on it, and a description popped up. It turned out that the 30% meant that the clone now had 30% of the overall strength of the main body.
Judging from Lin Zheng's current strength, even if it is only 30%, it is still very powerful.
However, being Master Lin is still a bit lacking.
"System, can the clone's strength be improved?"
Lin Zheng was a little dissatisfied and asked the system.
"Ding! The clone's strength can be improved by the host itself."
"A temporary increase of 10% (one month) requires three hundred merits.
A permanent increase of 10% requires two thousand merits and the completion of a gold-level scroll task!"
"A temporary increase of 20% (one month) requires six hundred merits, a permanent increase of 20% requires five thousand merits, and a gold-level scroll task is completed!"
"Temporarily increased by 30%..."
"Damn! Isn't this too expensive?"
After hearing the conditions, Lin Zheng couldn't help but curse.
A temporary increase of 10% is not expensive, but the problem is that it only lasts for a month, which is too frustrating.
To achieve permanent improvement, you not only need a large amount of merit, but you also have to complete a gold-level scroll task.
Lin Zheng couldn't guess what the gold-level scroll mission was, but judging from the mission he had just completed, it was extremely difficult.
"System, is there no other way to improve the clone's strength?"
Lin Zheng asked angrily.
"Yes! The host can strip away the strength of the main body and give it to the clone!"
“What does stripping mean?”
Lin Zheng was stunned and asked.
"It means that after the host strips away its strength, it will no longer have this strength.
For example, the host can strip off the primary Gu skill and give it to the clone, then the host body will no longer have this skill."
After hearing about this method of stripping, Lin Zheng thought about it again and again and thought it was feasible.
He has accumulated a lot of skills and techniques during this period, and peeling some off to enhance the strength of the clone is equivalent to creating another self. Moreover, he now needs the identity of Master Lin to stand up for himself.
Thinking of this, Lin Zheng decided to follow the system's instructions and peel off part of his strength.
If you encounter danger, you can also use merit to temporarily increase your strength.
Lin Zheng still needs to think carefully about which skills should be stripped away.
Just after sorting out this matter, the system prompted again that the update has been completed and can be viewed.
Lin Zheng naturally knows that the update has been completed, otherwise he wouldn't be able to open the clone's sub-page. Do you still need to remind me?
Cursing in his heart, Lin Zheng opened the system, but after checking it, he was stunned.
Is this a system update?
Is this completely systemic castration?
The sign-in function actually canceled the holiday sign-in and ordinary daily sign-in, and turned it into weekly sign-in, monthly sign-in and annual sign-in.
In other words, the number of check-ins has decreased.
Weekly tasks have become monthly tasks, and the task cycle has been extended, but the tasks have become fewer.
Such a change means that Lin Zheng receives fewer rewards.
What is this going to do?
Originally, the items in the Merit Mall were getting more and more expensive, but now the rewards have become less and less, so why don’t you let people live anymore?
