Tang Ji has been controlling his emotions during this period, and anger management has become his main job. He feels that he has touched the threshold of LV3, and the example of gluttony is right in front of him, and the greedy step on the trap of jealousy has just happened.
soon.
The most obvious example is that Tang Ji has recently begun to frequently sense anger directed at himself, and this range covers almost half of the federation.
Especially in Night City, the city where he had lived for a long time and left behind countless memories and legends. Even if a street kid cursed him after drinking too much, Tang Ji who was far away at the Lost Mountain base would be able to sense it.
arrive.
This kind of supernatural induction made Tang Ji once again become the "guest" of Wu Qianying's team.
The higher the level of the Seven Deadly Sins in terms of personal abilities, the more susceptible they are to being affected by their original emotions. Wu Qianying's team has already collected enough information on this. They are definitely the team with the most comprehensive information on the Seven Deadly Sins in the world.
Not only are Rage and Lust stationed in the base, and can carry out various reliable or unreliable experiments at any time, the remains of jealous and gluttonous creatures are also concentrated here, and they can be applied for and pulled out at any time.
Not even greed can escape the invitation of the Lost Mountain Base. Out of fear of Tang Ji, Wolfgang has appeared in the Lost Mountain Base four times, donated part of his blood, and cooperated in various experiments.
As the oldest known Seven Deadly Sins, Wolfgang is very curious about his origins and the limits of his abilities. Just like now
"How many abilities have you mastered now?" Dr. Klenchikov talked to Greedy through a thick layer of bulletproof glass, with Surte wearing a special exoskeleton standing next to him, just in case.
Although there is no record of Greedy preying on ordinary people so far, when faced with a man-eating monster, you can't simply trust the other person's character.
"I don't know, I can't remember, maybe four hundred?" Wolfgang sat on the spacious sofa, looked at Dr. Klenchikov and answered very cooperatively: "There are only a dozen commonly used ones.
Extra abilities are actually burdensome.”
"Can you tell me in detail? What abilities do you commonly use?" Dr. Klenchikov further asked: "Just for research data, we are facing more and more people with complex abilities."
"No, your boss has been thinking about killing me. I have to keep some trump cards." Wolfgang smiled, showing his white teeth: "I heard that you had a prison robbery yesterday? Why didn't you
How about leaving those damn serious criminals to me?"
"Because they don't want to become a meal on the plate." Tang Ji walked in and sat opposite Wolfgang. A classic model also walked in.
Wolfgang restrained his wanton smile a little. As the second of the Seven Deadly Sins to enter the LV3 stage, he was as sensitive to greed as Tang Ji was angry.
And the moment Mikkelsen appeared, he felt a trace of greed directed at him from Mikkelsen.
"It seems like today is a grand banquet." Wolfgang didn't show any nervousness. He was indeed wary of Tang Ji's strength, but at the LV3 stage, he was confident that he would not fall behind.
"Just asking some routine questions, don't be nervous." Wu Qianying's voice came from the microphone. She was sitting in a safe enough place to observe Wolfgang's micro-expression: "Did you just sense that Mikkelsen was targeting you?
Personal greed?”
Wolfgang's face turned ugly instantly. He felt that he was being plotted, but he knew Wu Qianying. It was too late to deny it at this time, and it was too tasteless.
He looked Tang Ji up and down, as if he was looking at some monster, and asked tentatively: "Have you reached this point?"
It took Wolfgang nearly three hundred years to reach the LV3 stage, and devoured three figures of his kind in the process. Tang Ji in front of him had only been awake for less than three years.
This contrast made Wolfgang feel a little sad for a while, as if he had had an unreal dream.
Anne, who was hiding in the dark and peering through Dr. Klenchikov's perspective, had the same feeling. She felt that she had been working hard to catch up with these peers, but the gap seemed to be getting wider and wider.
Of course, after carefully recalling it, Anne had to admit that compared to Tangji and Wolfgang, she was indeed a bit weak. With this thought in mind, Anne disconnected Dr. Klenchikov's perspective.
The researchers at the Lost Mountain Base are too smart. Many times, Annie can't let go and doesn't dare to play too much. She always feels like her every move is being ignored.
"What do you want to know from me?" Wolfgang hesitated for a moment and then laughed freely. At the strategic level, he could almost keep up with Mikkelsen's thinking.
At this stage, supporting Tang Ji is undoubtedly the best solution in this world.
"How long did it take you from sensing emotions to officially advancing to LV3?" Wu Qianying continued to ask. She needed to estimate the approximate time point for Tang Ji's advancement.
For now, Tang Ji's promotion may not be a good thing.
In the LV3 stage of gluttony, the personal will is completely covered by the emotions represented by the gluttony itself, and even the survival instinct is replaced by appetite, otherwise it would have had a chance to escape in Toronto.
Greed, who is also at the LV3 stage, has long since learned to give in to greed and constantly compromise in order to maintain his human side.
These paths are obviously not suitable for Tang Ji, because he represents the most intense emotions and his madness has long been known to everyone through the prophet.
"Okay, almost seventy years." Wolfgang felt that when he said these words, his face was completely embarrassed.
"It has almost no reference value." Wu Qianying's words seemed to be the finishing touch, making Wolfgang angry.
After being promoted to LV3, Wolfgang's behavior has indeed changed. He has become more greedy. Both his desire for different abilities and his soul-devouring hunger are increasing day by day.
He had experienced this kind of experience before. After devouring his own kind again, he almost gave up everything. Like a soulless beast, he traveled around the world and devoured alive all the prey he encountered.
It took a full century for Wolfgang to finally come out of that image.
Perhaps it was a common problem caused by the immortal species, but Wolfgang was not sensitive to the passage of time. Before a new generation like Tang Ji and others appeared, he did not feel that he had wasted too long.
But with Gluttony advancing to LV3 in just a few years, Envy taking an even shorter time to break through before him, and Tang Ji in front of him, the progress of these people is almost visible to the naked eye.
As for Wolfgang himself, his long life seems to have brought him only age.
To a certain extent, Wolfgang is actually grateful to those players, who are deliberately trying to mess up the world and make it a place where people like him can do almost anything they want.
Otherwise, just the problem of eating would give Wolfgang a headache. You must know that during the 20 to 30 years in the 1980s and 1990s, the entire civilization seemed to be thriving, with a tendency to colonize the moon this year.
The momentum of landing on Mars next year almost forced Wolfgang to work in a steel factory.
"Thank you for your cooperation. I have nothing more to ask." Wu Qianying's cold conclusion made Wolfgang feel even more uncomfortable.
But fortunately, there are still people here who appreciate the greedy ability of the LV3 stage. Mikkelsen coughed lightly and opened a projection file.
"Two months ago, Markarian released a group of players positioned as achievement explorers into the world. According to my observations, this type of player is better at communicating and integrating into the world, and at the same time has low aggression.
They are professional secret diggers." Mikkelsen said: "And our world obviously has no shortage of secrets."
"What does this have to do with me?" Wolfgang looked impatiently at the picture on the screen that looked like an archaeological site. He chose to cooperate with Mikkelsen and the others, not just for the meeting.
"Because I hired a group of achievement explorers to find the origin of the Seven Deadly Sins. Now there are results. It's about you and jealousy." Mikkelsen showed a harmless smile: "Or to put it another way, it's
The previous generation was greedy and jealous.”
"Are you kidding?" Wolfgang frowned: "What does this mean?"
"It means we dug a temple dedicated to you, Greedy." Mikkelsen smiled: "Believe me, the contents inside will surprise you."
"Turn down the lights here. These are all natural plant paints. Temperatures exceeding 32 degrees will cause these things to oxidize and decompose." Quan Zhe, who was wearing a safety helmet, looked like an expert and commanded calmly.
Help local workers adjust the lights.
This is the second ruins he led the excavation. It is located in the desert of the Giza Plateau, less than 300 kilometers away from the famous pyramids.
Its size is close to the Pyramid of Khufu, but the damage is serious. The buildings above the surface have been completely destroyed, leaving only the underground part.
This is a temple dedicated to the god named Greed, and the clues were found by Quan Zhe in the previous ruins dedicated to jealousy.
The ruins of ancient buildings related to jealousy did not provide much to Quan Zhe. They had been burned deliberately, and the only valuable thing in the entire ruins was a rock wall with murals.
The mural describes how the god named jealousy led his subjects to go to war with the god named greed. The war ended with jealousy failing and being killed.
The remaining believers of Jealousy built the last sacrificial site to commemorate their gods. However, countless slaves that Jealousy once controlled died with the death of their masters. Their relatives, filled with anger and grief, formed a revenge team, which consumed everyone.
It took decades to finally find the ruins.
What Quan Zhe showed people was the last thing left in the sacrificial place.
Fortunately, according to the description of the mural, Quan Zhe finally found the remains of the Temple of Greed.
"This is simply impossible. These things were built from the end of the Third Dynasty to the beginning of the Fourth Dynasty." A local historian wearing a sun hat said with deep suspicion on his face: "But there is nothing about this person during that period.
Records of the gods.”
"Maybe it was deleted? Covered up?" Quan Zhe said nonchalantly. He didn't need to confirm the authenticity of these things at all. He was not an aborigine.
The only thing he needs is to find these hidden histories and collect information about the Seven Deadly Sins. With Tang Ji's current popularity among the players, this information can be sold for a sky-high price.
The excavation process for the ruins went extremely smoothly, and the generous aboriginal sponsors brought a geotechnical superhuman from the Ark organization.
The recent performance of that big guy who is particularly good at digging has made Quan Zhe have special thoughts. He is considering the possibility of spending money to buy part of his body to become a body.
As an achievement-exploring player, Quan Zhe does not reject this cooperative and win-win way to obtain the body. Anyway, every time he gets a result, he needs to return to the home world and spend a considerable amount of time perfecting it. In theory, two people share the same body.
It is also feasible.
But Quan Zhe wisely kept this idea in his mind for the time being. He spent some time investigating the background of the Ark organization and found that it was the first organization in the world to resist players, but it was recently stolen by Tang Ji.
, many players once thought that Tang Ji was the biggest resistance force.
"Mr. Stark Polo, can you please widen the passage here, but please do not destroy the overall structural proportions. For a temple of this size, many numbers are symbolic. I need a wider one.
Let’s study it carefully.” Quan Zhe patted Stark Polo on the shoulder, and a trace of discomfort clearly flashed across his face.
As a veteran member of the Ark organization, Stark has been accustomed to being careless with the pioneers and the chaos and madness of the players. Suddenly a sane and funny player like Quan Zhe appears. His thoughts have been wandering to give him a brick, and
Give him a shovel.
With a burst of dust shaking, Wang Zhengdao appeared in the ruins passage with a group of people. The leader was Angry, Greedy, and the lustful lady Anne who had not seen the sun for a long time and planned to come out to join in the fun.
If we also include Mikkelsen, whose identity of the Seven Deadly Sins has not been determined until now, and the head of jealousy, which was held in the hands of Dr. Wu Qianying and soaked in formalin while drinking tea, this small relic has been successfully collected.
The fourth (fifth) of the Seven Deadly Sins was brought together, which can be called a historic meeting.
"Are you here?" Quan Zhe looked familiar and glanced at Wang Zhengdao with some envy. His love for Stark Polo disappeared instantly, and he turned to focus on Wang Zhengdao's body and sighed:
"Your world is amazing!"
"Shut up and tell him to go away." Tang Ji resisted his urge to kill the player in front of him and shifted his attention to the murals on both sides of the passage.
In the mural, a gigantic figure that appears to be at least four or five times the size of an ordinary person is sitting on a throne. The servants below are holding long trays high and queuing up to serve dishes with obvious human shadows.
At the end of the long food delivery queue, a large number of things of different shapes and sizes that looked half-human and half-animal were imprisoned in cages. Samurai with swords and guns were sharpening their knives and waiting to slaughter these aliens.
Farther away, countless human beings knelt down and worshiped under the throne. Even the colors outlined in simple drawings deeply showed their piety.
