MTL - What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?-Chapter 96
—【Come on, prove your sincerity to me. Let me see what you can do in half a day. 】
To be honest, when Xu Tuoran said this, he didn't have great expectations for Jason. I didn't expect him to do much.
The reason for adding a time limit is purely to give him a sense of urgency.
This robot, however, seems to have too much sense of urgency.
Because in the next second, Xu Tuoran saw him humming the name "Saint of Flesh" again and again, got up from the ground in a panic, and pulled out a keyboard-like thing with a small screen from his chest Son, start serious... typing on the keyboard.
Xu Furan: ...Huh?
Eh? Eh? !
Does it still have this function?
Xu Tuoran moved to the side of the screen and looked at it. He saw all kinds of graphic symbols on it, but he couldn't understand them at all. As a "Holy One", it's not easy for her to ask. He could only silently watch Jason move his fingers like flying.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Jason to give her the answer himself:
"The great saint of flesh and blood!" He put away the small broken keyboard on his chest, and looked at the air in front of him tremblingly, "In your name, I made a simple electronic greeting card and sent it anonymously to some people I know... Excuse me Does this count as spreading your name?"
When he said this, he was still a little apprehensive: "Internet service needs to be paid, but my recent rent increase, plus other expenses, I don't have enough money. I can only do this... Do you think it is enough?
Xu Tuoran: "..."
Even though he knew that Jason in front of him was just a piece of consciousness intercepted by the "belief box", Xu Tuoran couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
She walked out from behind Jason, turned to him in two or three steps, picked up the marker pen, thought for a while, and wrote on the ground:
[Write down their names and locations. I will verify. 】
Jason nodded in trepidation and printed out a list from his chest. Xu Tueran stepped forward to take it, held it in his hand and looked at it twice, considering the demeanor of the gods, he didn't put the piece of paper away, but just held it in his hand like that.
【You did very well. I have felt your sincerity. 】She picked up the marker pen to write again, paused, and added, 【As a reward, I will give you a reminder. 】
【Your landlord has lost a beloved cat and is anxiously looking for it—there are only words, how to handle it is up to you. Your future depends on your decisions. 】
Xu Tuoran pretended to be profound after writing these few sentences, then let go of his hand immediately, let the marker pen fall to the ground with a slap, and walked out the door with the list in his hand.
After going out, I found an empty corner and squatted down, took out the list and looked at it again, amazed.
I have to say that it is different with the Internet. It's no wonder that Bixianzhibi was thinking about going online to develop believers back then. Of course, Jason's execution ability is also very high.
Xu Tuoran understood how the third-rate church of Bixianzhibi was established in just a few days.
After reading the list, she checked the current exclusive panel of the Faith Box again, and was a little surprised to find that after a few conversations, she had gained another 100 Faith Points, or 50 steps.
Those newcomers who have just learned of the existence of the "Saint of Flesh" will not believe in their existence so easily. This increase in points most likely came from Jason. Recalling the entire conversation, Xu Tuoran felt that there were only two points that might lead to an increase in faith points. One was that she showed a "miracle" in front of Jason, and the other was that she gave him useful information.
In other words, in addition to "doing tasks", these two behaviors can also bring faith points... Xu Tuoran made a judgment in his heart, he was relieved, and was about to find the position given on Jason's list , The arm suddenly hurts.
The pain came suddenly and sharply. She frowned, and subconsciously covered it with the other hand, but she felt the warmth of it.
Xu Tuoran's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his head, only to see that there was a hole in the skin for some reason, like a bag with a hole in it, and blood was dripping down his arm.
...embarrassed.
Xu Tuoran pursed his lips, and wiped his skin with the paper in his hand.
There wasn't much time—she was vaguely aware of it.
This time, she was bearing the punishment from the Path of Chaos and the side effects of using the Chaos Wick at the same time, and she was actually close to her limit. Even though in this belief box, she can temporarily escape those pains and wounds, they are still there after all.
They are simply suppressed by force. And once the suppression is relaxed, it will come back with a more violent posture.
It is imperative to hurry up—Xu Tuoran clarified this point again, taking a deep breath. As soon as he thought about it, the wound on his arm closed up by itself, leaving only a winding bloodstain, leaving obvious black and blue marks on the skin, which hurt when touched.
Xu Turan didn't care about these anymore. She put away the paper in her hand and ran out along the alley.
Here is a time fragment with Jason as the "protagonist". Outside of his sight, none of the characters would exist—except those who already knew of the "Saint of Flesh" existence. And when approaching them, Xu Tuoran will hear their wishes.
Ordinarily, relying on these two points, she could manage to find the location of those people even without Jason's marking. But after all, time is tight, and it is a little bit more efficient.
Jason's life circle is very simple, just some neighbors and colleagues. The neighbors are basically active on that street, opening shops or hanging out. Most of the colleagues returned home because of the company explosion, and only a few remained in the factory.
Strange to say, the street, apart from those neighbors, was completely empty at this moment, with no one else there. The "neighbors" didn't seem to think there was any problem at all, and they were still doing their own thing.
…that scene, to be honest, was kind of weird.
The wishes of several people on the street are a little bit complicated. I want to recharge the network fee card and want to replace it with a new part. Xu Tuoran didn't even understand what he heard, so he had to give up, and instead tried to perform some "miracles" in front of them by taking advantage of his invisibility, but it caused panic among several people, and some even yelled, "There is a ghost!" ", ran away without looking back.
It made Xu Tuoran quite embarrassed, and even worried that his belief points would be deducted because of this. Looking at the panel again, not only was there no deduction, but it increased a little, but the increase was very small, adding up to a total of less than twenty.
Xu Tuoran: "..."
This is all right?
However, she felt that the increase was too slow, so after thinking about it, she went to the factory first. There happened to be a few employees squatting together to rest. Xu Tuoran walked over to see the badge, and when he leaned over, he heard various voices sounding continuously——
"...a dog is better than a foreman, a fox is pretending to be a tiger, so mad..."
"Why do people keep messing with my things? I can't find the tools, so I'll fix the machine for you."
"Who sent that weird greeting card? Crazy. As a pure Chuangshen believer, how can I see that kind of thing! It's too sinful!"
—Some are wishes, and some are evaluations related to the "Flesh Saint".
Xu furan rationally ignored all the parts of evaluation and speculation, and only focused on processing those understandable wishes. Fortunately, the wishes of these people are not too difficult.
There were those who were squeezed by the foreman until they were full of resentment and wanted to vent their anger. Xu Tuoran pushed the foreman somersaults in front of him; for those who could not find key tools, Xu Tueran directly put the found tools in front of him; he wanted to repair the machine quickly so that all the workers could be called back to work Live…
Oh, sorry, this is really impossible. Wishing also counts as first-come, first-served.
After scanning all the tasks that could be solved, and looking at the panel again, Xu Tuoran was dumbfounded.
A total increase of only twenty points. It is not much different from the death value obtained by "Haunted" before.
...but shouldn't it? I did Jason's task before, and I got a raise of 200 at a time?
Xu Tuoran lowered his eyes to think for a moment, and suddenly realized.
It was only then that she realized that she had missed a very important point—the wish that Jason wanted to fulfill had been prayed to the "Saint of Flesh and Flesh" seriously. After solving it, he would naturally belong to the "Saint of Flesh and Blood" .
But for other people, they only know everything about the "Flesh Saint". And didn't pray. Even if he got what he wanted, he would not take the initiative to link this matter with the "sage of flesh and blood".
But having said that, although this is a time fragment intercepted with Jason as the core, it is after all a re-enactment of the "City of Newborn". In the "New City", everyone was instilled with the initial belief in the God of Creation, and there were only a few people who could calmly find a roadside **** to pray to like Jason.
In other words, it is not enough to do good deeds. After finishing the work, you have to report yourself, and you can't let this credit be taken away by other names.
…Xu Tuoran finally realized it.
After enlightenment, she immediately started looking for pens everywhere, ready to find a place for someone to sign.
After all, when he just started preaching, Xu Tuoran's hands were still relatively raw, and he didn't develop the habit of carrying writing tools with him. After going around for a long time, I finally found a marker pen in an office, and even tried to leave marks on the wall—
【I am a saint of flesh and blood, my will will come here...】
Just finished writing a sentence, the office door suddenly opened, and the foreman walked in from the outside.
The foreman was the one who was pushed by Xu Tueran before, and his neck was still a little crooked. Also because of this distorted angle, when he came in, he didn't see the writing on the wall at first glance, but after he closed the door and turned around, he finally realized something was wrong.
foreman:"…"
Xu Tuoran: "..."
Looking at the foreman who was so shocked that every part was rattling, Xu Tueran had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, the next second, the foreman screamed beeping:
"Yes, there are ghosts... there are ghosts—"
Xu Turan: ...
No, it's not a ghost, it's a wayside god, thank you.
Seeing that the foreman was about to turn around and run outside, Xu Tuoran subconsciously wanted to stop him, but when he raised his hand, there was a thin layer of ice on the ground, and the foreman slipped and fell to the ground.
The foreman, who was already terrified, became even more panicked, lying on the ground trembling. The trembling voice sounded again, but in the form of heart sounds—
"I knew it, I was cursed! I must be cursed! I shouldn't have opened that anonymous email!"
"What should I do? Am I going to die! Chuangshen, the great Chuangshen, please save me, save me!"
Xu Turan: ...
Creator of your size—she thought with some amusement, this is my faith box, how could there be anything else...
Wait a moment.
Xu Turan's heart suddenly moved.
Yes, here is her Faith Box. But—why can't there be other gods?
She thought for a while, then let go of her fingers, and the marker pen in her hand fell to the ground with a snap.
foreman:…?
Just at this moment, the injury that was forcibly suppressed by her counterattacked again. Xu Tuoran had a wound on his face for no reason, blood trickled down his chin and dripped on the ground.
The foreman couldn't see Xu Tuoran, but he could see the blood dripping from her body. He was even more stunned, and his eyes lit up with laser light.
Xu Turan was calm. She scored twice, and she was more proficient in handling it this time. After only meditating for a while, the wound healed again. After enduring the pain, she raised her hand and released a blow of "Ice Eighteen", burning away the writing on the wall .
Under her intentional control, Bing Shiba did not cause much damage to the wall, but it still inevitably left a scorched black mark. Immediately afterwards, she saw blood on her face again, and wrote on the side:
[Don't be afraid, I'm here. 】
foreman:…? ? ?
[I heard your call. 】Xu Tuoran continued to work hard, halfway through the writing, the shoulder was cracked again, she dipped the blood on it, and continued to write on the wall,【The evil thing has been exorcised. You are safe. 】
This time, the foreman finally came to his senses: "Chuang, Chuangshen?...Is that you, the great Chuangshen?"
Xu Tuoran smeared some blood on his face again, and wrote without changing his expression:
[Yes, it's me. 】
After writing this sentence, I was not surprised to hear another burst of exclamation and praise from the foreman. Xu Tuoran calmly opened the panel again, and saw that he got three hundred faith points again.
Very good, it seems that this method will work.
Xu Tuoran nodded secretly satisfied, and pressed the wound on his shoulder.
—The layout is open.
the other end.
Inside the Path of Chaos.
Jiang Lin was staring intently at the place where Xu Tuoran disappeared last time, stretching out his tentacles, assuming a posture of preparing to attack, not daring to relax for a moment.
—He didn't know how long he had maintained this stupid position. He only knew that at some point in the future, Xu Tuoran would definitely appear again. And what he had to do was to seize that moment and smash her.
…After all, in order to carry out this "Chaos Path Hunting Plan", he has made countless complicated preparations, and even took the risk of feeding Xu Tuoran directly from the torch class to the Hui class. If this doesn't work out in the end, what face does he have to meet Jiang Lin and others? Isn't this self-inflicted shame?
Therefore, no matter how long it takes to spend with Xu Tuoran here, he must spend it. Even if she can't be killed, at least she must be controlled to ensure that she can never enter the Chen-level area...
Jiang Lin settled down and forced himself to focus on the air in front of him again. After an unknown amount of time, he finally felt a vibration in the air—
finally come!
Jiang Lin was overjoyed, hurriedly raised all his tentacles, and stabbed fiercely towards that point. In the next second, I felt that the temperature around me suddenly dropped, and Xu Tuoran's body finally emerged in mid-air, and the tentacles rushing forward had already touched her side neck—
Then, it was frozen.
Before Jiang Lindu could be happy, he found that his tentacles were all frozen.
It froze in the air like frozen squid tendrils, and soon fell again due to the extra gravity. Not only Jiang Lin was dumbfounded, but Xu Tuoran himself was also a little dumbfounded.
—God knows, she just instinctively wants to fight back because she perceives danger. And because throwing ice in the belief box went smoothly, I subconsciously released the No. 7 ice.
It actually did.
There were even bigger question marks in the big eyes, but now was not the time to think about it—she was still falling. It's not fun to drop the already shattered body.
So Xu Tuoran made a decisive decision and spread a layer of fluffy and fine smoothie on the ground.
Honestly, using a smoothie as a buffer is a bad idea. But in any case, it played a somewhat buffering role. After the fall, patches of coolness hit, but relieved the pain to a certain extent.
...Of course, Xu Tuoran felt that he might just be stupid from freezing, or numb from the fall.
Waving his fingers to disperse the fine ice sand around him, Xu turned his eyes in vain, and found that Jiang Lin was dragging a few tentacles wrapped in ice towards him. Without saying a word, he immediately activated the faith box—
The number of steps exchanged by faith points will be credited immediately. She only felt her body lighten, as if being lifted up by some invisible but soft thing, and immediately rushed forward at an astonishing speed.
Jiang Lin, who was dragging Da Bing and Xiao Bing towards her, said, "..."
? ? ? !
Is there a mistake? again? !
He stopped in a daze, and remained silent for two seconds. Seeing that Xu Tuoran was getting closer and closer to the gate of the Chen-level area, he finally gritted his teeth secretly, raised his head and let out a scream as if making up his mind!
In the next moment, similar screams sounded one after another in all directions. The gatekeeper monster crouching behind the gate instantly straightened up, staring at the figure that was approaching. A large number of arms drilled out of the iron gate for no reason, twisted and held each other, tightly entangled the door leaf.
On the other side, Xu Tuoran finally arrived at the door, but as soon as he approached, he heard a roar from the monster behind the door, and countless arms stretched out from the door, viciously hitting her!
Xu Tuoran:!
The means of transportation under him intelligently dodged to the side, and Xu Tuoran dragged his tattered body to lie on top of it. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Lin chasing after him, and his heart was filled with anger.
"Let me go!" She shrugged her shoulder blades and roared forward, obviously speaking in human language, but there seemed to be rumbling thunder. The pair of monsters who were grinning at her behind the iron gate shrank back fiercely, with their ears drooping, and retreated into the darkness. The arms on the door also flinched back after a brief moment of stiffness.
However, they still clung to the door firmly, refusing to let Xu Turan push it away.
Xu Tuoran: "..."
Seeing that Jiang Lin was getting closer and closer, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
In another moment, the eyes opened, and the eyes were filled with icy blue, and black ice crystals melted into one piece, like a beast that had left the gate, roaring and rushing towards the closed gate!
Almost at the same time, Jiang Lin behind him screamed and fell to the ground. And in the other three places far away, three pairs of eyes opened at the same time, and Jiang Lin fell to his knees with his head in his arms, biting his lips and screaming forbearance!
But in front of Xu Turan, it was another group of things screaming—those arms tightly wrapped around the gate, under the high temperature of Bingshiba, were twisting and melting continuously while making ear-piercing wailing.
Also melted, and that door. Xu Tuoran quietly guarded the door until the wrought iron gate in front of him was completely melted, then drove the means of transportation and swaggered in.
When she was inside the belief box, to be on the safe side, she saved a lot of belief points. If all of them were converted, it would be enough for her to go two hundred steps forward.
However, Xu Tueran looked back and saw that everything behind him had been melted away, leaving only a huge empty entrance, and suddenly he had an interesting idea in his heart.
She gave up and moved on, jumping off the mobility aid. The moment the broken body entered the Chen-level area, it had fully recovered, and the posture when it landed was very light.
She stood on the ground, looked at Jiang Lin who was still struggling to get closer, and tilted her head expressionlessly.
In the next second, Ice No. 7 activated again—thick walls of ice rose from the ground, one wall after another, layer by layer, like the powerful arms of a giant, completely blocking the entrance between the two areas. Outrageously blocked!
— “You like locking doors, don’t you?”
On the boundless ice, Xu Turan who was sitting on the high chair lightly raised the corners of his lips, his eyes were icy cold. On the smooth back of the hand, there is a slight arc bulging from time to time, as if something is surging in the body.
"I'll help you."
The other side of the ice wall.
Jiang Lin looked incredulously at the ice wall pulled up in front of him in an instant, and after a long silence, Fang rushed over unsteadily.
Two of his tentacles were completely necrotic. This is the price he paid for using his strength to forcefully lock the door. He looked up at the tall ice surface, finally mustered up the courage, and tentatively knocked on it with the remaining intact tentacles.
Banger hard.
The craftsman is numb.
Not long after, I rented out the house.
After a long delay, I finally recovered from the great pain. She didn't know what happened just now, she only knew that she was frightened and had to eat something to suppress the fright.
And just when she took out her mobile phone and began to seriously choose a takeaway shop, an extra eye suddenly appeared on the back of her hand.
The yellow eyes rolled around, for some reason, they looked tired and frightened, and there were a lot of red blood in the eyes.
...no, not "somehow". Turning his eyes, Jiang Lin quickly understood: "Your plan has failed."
Jiang Lin: "...ang."
Jianglin: "I won't comfort you."
Jiang Lin: "...I know."
Jiang Lin: "Then get out."
Jiang Lin: "..."
"I just want to ask you something." Jiang Lin said, rolling his eyes uneasily. Perhaps because of being frightened, his eyeballs trembled extremely frequently.
"Just, if the door to the upgrade space is locked... um..." He was still deliberating his words, and Jiang Lin had already begun to roll his eyes impatiently.
"Did you go to lock the door in order to trap Xing Xing?" She asked angrily, seeing that Jiang Lin didn't speak, she knew she had guessed right. Cursing an idiot secretly, he said coldly, "We are not perfect now. If you want to operate the upgrade space, you have to pay a price. So you are responsible for opening the door you locked, don't expect me to help you."
Strictly speaking, to control the upgrade space above one's own level, one must pay a price. And locking the door is the operation that requires the highest authority, so the price paid is naturally more.
There is no chaotic tendency in Jianglin now, and there is no need for upgrades, so naturally he doesn't want to care about this mess at all.
However, what she didn't expect was that this mess was even worse than she imagined—
"It's like this." Jiang Lin said rather awkwardly, "Let me tell you something, you must calm down and don't get excited."
Coming: "?"
Jiang Lin: "The Chen-level entrance of the Path of Chaos is now locked."
Jiang Lin: "...I didn't do it. I can't fix it either."
Admiral: "...???!"
