"From your description, it seems that Wuzi was possessed by a strange monster? It was the shadow she saw in the fog."
On the 37th floor of the Mysterious Tower, in the residence of the legendary Brave Team, a young man with short fiery red hair analyzed: "And it sounds... it feels like a weird rule."
"If she acts coquettishly three times, her eyes will turn black. If she fulfills one more wish, she will be able to change back to her original self..." Asuna gently put her hand on Kiriko's arm to comfort her: "It's okay, everyone will help.
You find a way to recover."
Wuzi was a little depressed: "I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone. I can feel that there is another consciousness in my body, but it refuses to communicate with me. I also completely lost it when I was 'acting like a baby' and 'making a wish'
Control over the body.”
Negishi Yoshiyuki beside him also consoled him: "We will definitely have a way to get rid of this monster, Kiriko!"
He looked to the dozen or so people around him for help.
At this time, three hours had passed since Kiriko's situation appeared on the 51st floor. Gathered around him were his more trusted friends, including Kirito Asuna, excluding Eugene and others, because he was worried that they would do something wrong.
An unfavorable judgment against Kiriko.
Wuzi's previous changes really frightened him and the other three people in the team.
The dark eyes and mouth were indescribably weird and ominous. If it weren't for Kiriko, he might have made the judgment that he needed to be shot.
It was relatively easy for Kiriko to recover. He just asked, and "that thing" told him the rules of making wishes. Negishi Yoshiyuki had the courage to make a wish of "hug me." After the thing did it, Kiriko
It changed back to its original state.
But there is such a thing in Wuzi's body, and he can't rest assured unless it is eradicated.
Everyone understood the situation and began to think in silence. Kirito and Asuna looked at each other and at the same time thought of a name - Ji Xing.
If it has that kind of health bar ability, is there a way to only kill monsters without hurting Kiriko?
But without knowing the danger...
"Eugeru, I want a glass of water."
At this moment, Wuzi suddenly spoke, causing the surrounding area to become silent, and even the sound of breathing disappeared.
Coming?!
The man named 'Eugeru' is a young man with short red hair, and he is from another strategy team. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for Kiriko to ask for water if she wants to drink water. Is this called 'coquettishness'?
Negishi Yoshiyuki looked over quickly, and Yujiro shook his head: "Okay, okay, I'm still thinking about what will happen if I don't cooperate. Since you're worried about hurting Kiriko, don't try it yet."
He walked to the kitchen next to him and got a glass of water for Kiriko. Kiriko didn't drink it, but continued: "Eugeru, I want a candy."
"Here, I happen to have it."
"Eugeru, I want a piece of paper."
When the paper was handed to Wuzi, everyone's eyes were fixed on her face, but no one saw the change process clearly. It was just that the moment Wuzi took the paper, she changed her face!
The black eyes, the pitch-black mouth, it wouldn't be considered scary, but it is indeed strange and abrupt.
Everyone was a little wary, but Yugilu scratched his head with a headache: "The next step is to make a wish, right? What can you make, but you can't also ask for a hug?"
Negishi Yoshiyuki's face turned slightly green: "Don't mess around, Yugiru, just ask for a candy."
"Wait a minute." At this time, another strong man with a goatee interrupted: "Only the person who satisfies her coquettishness can make a wish? How big is the range of wishes? Monster, I wish you to come out of Kiriko's body."
Everyone's eyes lit up and they looked at the 'blackened' Kiriko, but she did not respond. Yugiru repeated it again, but he was not 'satisfied' either.
"Ha, he is a pretentious guy." The strong man with a goatee smiled: "It seems that he is intelligent, but he is pretending to be mysterious and not communicating with us. Then you can't just satisfy the wish of kissing, hugging and eating sweets, right? What is this called making a wish? If it really exists
If I have the ability... let me become the strongest player."
"Just now!" Negishi Yoshiyuki frowned.
This goatee-bearded man's name is Fujino Kazunari. He is a fitness fanatic in the strategy team. In reality, he seems to be a fitness coach. He has always been proud of his physical strength and was the first to reach the extremely strong level, with the goal of becoming the strongest player.
But don’t act recklessly at this time! No matter it hurts yourself or Kiriko...
Fortunately, Kiroko probably won't...
"Ai-!"
The girl's clear and sinister reply echoed, instantly making the room quiet again.
No way...
boom!!
The next moment, a powerful thought energy that he had never felt before swelled from Wuzi's body!
The eaves could not block it at all, forming a beam of light that surged into the sky, causing the players in the 37th-level town to look at each other in shock.
Negishi Yoshiyuki, Kirito and others who were standing next to him were all shaken away in shock. Only Fujinoichi, who was left to make a wish, stood there and felt a huge power being continuously injected into his body!
The muscles are obviously expanding.
The spiritual power is obviously increasing.
After a brief daze, he opened the information column in surprise and waved to those who looked at him in shock: "I'm fine! No, I'm fine!"
"Hahahaha, so amazing!"
"It's like cheating?!"
"Extremely strong has reached level 4, and I will jump up to level 330,000 with experience! It's level 5!"
"Spiritual power is also improving, it's B-! It's going to be B-level soon, my God!! Hahaha~"
"I'm getting stronger! I'm really becoming the strongest!"
No way?! Everyone was shocked. Looking at Wuzi again, the information column couldn't be a lie, so... the ability of this thing is so exaggerated?!
"Stop first! Just for a moment! Don't waste Kiriko's power!" Negishi Yoshiyuki shouted worriedly.
"It's okay, isn't this good?" Immersed in the pleasure of increasing strength, Fujino waved his hand casually, not noticing that a few white hairs had been added to his hair.
Kirito noticed it keenly, and his eyes narrowed slightly - it is impossible to improve without any cost, is it overdrafting the potential?!
Just as he was about to remind me, Fujino Kazuki's loud laughter rang out again: "I have reached the 10th level of extreme strength. It seems that I will be promoted to absolute strength! My spiritual power has also reached B+, and I will soon be able to beat Toguru Brother!"
Poof - as soon as he finished speaking, a bloodstain suddenly appeared on the side of his upper arm, and a sharp pain hit him, causing his smile to falter slightly.
What happened? The next moment, the severe pain coming from blood vessels, internal organs, and muscles all over the body made his face distorted and he fell to the ground!
"Ah - it hurts!"
"As soon as possible?!"
Puff puff puff puff——
Blood spurted out, and Fujino turned into a bloody man in an instant. While wailing, his few senses told him the reason, and he weakly shouted: "Stop! Okay! Okay! Enough! Full! What I want is the player.
The strongest, the current power is already enough! No, no more!"
Mist (black) means you are not enough.
When Fujinoichi's strength level in the information column jumped to absolute strength (level 1), his spiritual power also reached A-level, and it suddenly shattered.
Like a torn doll, the broken flesh and blood and internal organs were shot everywhere! The unbearable head rolled to the feet of Kirito who wanted to interrupt Kiriko, causing an instant silence in the room!
The powerful mental energy in Kiriko's body faded away, and her face finally returned to normal. She shook weakly. The moment she fell, she was caught by Negishi Yoshiyuki, who reacted, and fell into a coma.
"Dead... as soon as possible?!"
"how so?"
"The body is broken into pieces like this, and even the Resurrection Grass can't repair it. This bastard is messing around... How is Wuzi? Are you okay?!"
"That's not strengthening." Kirito, who had seen a lot of life and death, tried to calm down and said: "Have you noticed that Ichi looked like a middle-aged man in his 50s before he died? That was letting him overdraw his potential.
Quickly gain the power of the future.”
"So... maybe the limit is extreme strength level 10 and spiritual strength B+? If it is strengthened beyond the limit, it will end up being exploded alive?"
"What an insidious and cunning monster! I knew I just wanted to be the strongest player, but I kept pushing him to the limit! With extremely strong strength of 10 and B+ spiritual power, I'm already ahead of everyone!"
"Damn it, just..."
Everyone complained that he was acting recklessly, but they felt unworthy and confused because of his death.
Moreover, the abilities of this mysterious monster on the 51st floor seem to be a bit exaggerated...
…
"Something is looking at me."
On the 49th floor of the Mysterious Tower, Ji Xing, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing the Holy Mind Qi, felt a sense of being spied on and looked around in surprise.
Can't find the source?
Then it must not be a player, but something special happened on the 56th floor? He cleared the 55th floor early in the morning and just went to the 56th floor for a short walk before going home to practice instead of continuing to explore.
"The sense of peeping is gone. No, it's more like scanning than peeping."
Ji Xing walked out of the house and took a walk, but didn't notice anything strange. Just when he was about to return, the communication crystal rang.
As usual, it's Argo's.
The other party is holding a strategy group meeting again. Speaking of which, Argo rarely participated in strategy group meetings. It was only after Ji Xing gave her the information about Brother Toguro that the Treasure Hunter Guild's presence was strengthened again. And after knowing
'Ji Xing is related to the mysterious team', and Argo will not miss the most cutting-edge information and intelligence.
It was not Argo who was speaking on the other side of the communication crystal, it was just relaying the meeting to him.
After only hearing a few words, Ji Xing's eyes lit up: "Yes!" This is one of the five major disasters in the Dark Continent, together with the immortal disease, a dependent body of desire, a gas life form!
It is a strange life form that can attach itself to other people's bodies and bring about a second personality. It has the theoretically unlimited ability to fulfill other people's wishes and get back the corresponding price from those who act like a spoiled child in the future. Unexpectedly
That girl named Kiriko will fall into the trap.
The situation is equivalent to that of Killua's younger brother (sister), Alluka, who was imprisoned by the enemy Hakka! Among the five major disasters, Ji Xing is most interested in this gaseous life form!
According to Ji Xing's judgment, it is the ultimate embodiment of the oath and restriction of Nian ability, touching the rule life of Nian's origin! Even if it is not, it is a carrier of rules that Ji Xing has never come into contact with - desire and wish.
After his Nian ability (human) was raised to the limit, Ji Xing was also thinking about building a new ability while creating the Holy Nian Qi.
"If there is only one angstrom for research, new capabilities will probably be built very easily."
He listened carefully to the conversation in the communication crystal and quickly learned the location where Ai appeared.
Fujino Kazuki's death probably had something to do with Ji Xing. The most powerful player was none other than Ji Xing.
If you make a wish to become the second strongest player, you might be able to realize your overdraft potential, but this wish is also a bit 'greedy'. When Kiriko wakes up, the next three coquettish moves will probably be very troublesome. When the situation is unclear, this player
It's so messy.
Argo's goal in contacting him should be to warn the 'Mysterious Team' to be careful, and also hope to get information from Ji Xing, and this is exactly the mutual benefit Ji Xing wants to get from the players.
If he were left to look for it by himself, who knows how long it would take him to find the 51st floor if he was unlucky, and if he didn't know it, he would miss it permanently.
Now... Let’s go to the 51st floor first!
When the strategy team started discussing this, Ji Xing cut off the communication crystal, turned around and walked towards the teleportation tower, teleporting to the 51st floor.
Monsters and monsters did not pose any threat to him, and the whole morning journey of Negishi Yoshiyuki's team only took 10 minutes for Ji Xing who was traveling at full speed.
The meeting of the strategy team was probably not over yet when Ji Xing appeared near the center of the fog.
No fog was found in the surrounding area, Ji Xing's field expanded, and he first found the acid spring that had been explored by the player - he didn't pay attention to it at first, but if there was ammonia nearby, then the spring water was probably liquid.
The source is Sanyuan water.
It is the original solution of all liquids, and what it will change into depends only on what you blend it with.
The "acid" expression is probably because Eugene accidentally contaminated it with sweat when taking it.
It has great research value and economic value. The originally expensive and rare liquid can be added out of thin air by blending it with it and then purifying it.
Ji Xing thought for a while, squatted down half-crouched, and rolled a few telekinesis balls on the fingertips of his right hand, then softly fell into the Sanyuan Water.
There were only a few bubbles in the spring water.
"No response to reading."
But there is.
The next moment, a strange mist suddenly spread around Ji Xing and quickly reduced the visibility around him to extremely low levels!
However, Ji Xing's eyes were clear, and his vision was not affected at all: "It turned out to be a mist that acted on the spirit. No wonder Yu couldn't catch it. When he entered the mist, he had already been hit by Ai's move, so Yoshiyuki Negishi and the others were in
While the worms were parasitizing on Mist's body, his sense of self broke through the mist."
He looked back and saw shadowy figures in the distance, a dozen beings with dark eyes and bodies filled with gas that floated like ghosts.
Quite a bit. Ji Xing smiled, but the next moment the smile froze slightly on his face.
The fog suddenly dissipated.
More than a dozen angstroms disappeared out of thin air!
"...What the hell?!"
"They made a wish for themselves to teleport?!"
“Where is Sanyuan Water? I don’t want Sanyuan Water anymore? I don’t want it for your home either?!”
"Don't be afraid, I'm a good person!"
"Come on and parasitize me!"
Looking at the empty forest, Ji Xing felt as if the autumn wind was sweeping away the fallen leaves.
