This world, shadows quietly enveloped it, and unseen horrors spread among the populace.
The world seemed to be falling into an abyss.
Fang You, who could only stay home to survive, obta...
Puppetry!
When this skill was created through fusion, the information naturally came to mind, and it was already an entry-level skill that could be used with a little exploration.
Fang You snapped his fingers, and threads seemed to fly out from the surrounding void.
These threads are invisible and intangible, and are difficult to detect even with detection capabilities.
"This feature is the fusion of 'thread manipulation' and 'invisible hand'. Well, not only that, it also has the secretive nature of 'mind stealing'."
The new skills have many of the characteristics of the previous material skills, but they are much more.
The power of "Puppet Manipulation" lies in...
"The invisible thread can invade the target person's mind, stealing memories while silently tampering with them. And the most terrifying thing is the erosion!"
"It can quietly erode the target's consciousness, controlling the target bit by bit until it becomes a puppet that can be manipulated by oneself!"
This involves the characteristics of "Gui Yu", but the one being manipulated is no longer a ghost, but a human.
...
...
Practicing this skill is like being a puppet master hiding behind the scenes, manipulating puppets with strings to perform on the stage and present a magnificent play.
In just a short while, Fang You figured out several uses of this skill.
"During battle, the invisible threads can be used to secretly erode the enemy, which can effectively interfere with the enemy."
"Before the battle, if you are well prepared, you can even control several puppets to fight the enemy, creating a situation where many are against one. No, you can even use the puppets to launch a direct sneak attack."
At this point, he had already mastered the art of puppet manipulation and was well aware of the power of this skill.
At the entry level, one can corrode and control two puppets. As the proficiency level increases, the number will gradually increase. This is similar to "Ghost Control".
Another point,
"With low-level puppet manipulation, after the target is eroded and replaced, the puppet will appear to be rather rigid, and its combat power will also slightly decline. However, once the skill level is raised, not only will the puppet's combat power be fully exerted, but it will also appear to be agile and natural. There is no need to deliberately manipulate the puppet to continue to play the original role, and it will be difficult for people close to it to notice!"
We can put aside whether it is strong or not, but it is definitely thrilling and scary.
Even though he was the owner of the skill, Instructor Fang felt a little tingling on his scalp.
"However, this skill is not suitable for me. It is more suitable for assassins and spies who walk in the dark. Compared with the improvement of combat power, the ability to erode and control silently is the most terrifying."
Fang You pondered.
He only intends to teach this skill to a very small number of people, and the number must be limited. Of course, the purple-level skill itself is unlikely to be taught on a large scale.
"Just... pass it to Qianmian first."
"Qianmian usually does dangerous work, and this skill makes him even more powerful. His/her talent and awakening ability can also make full use of this skill."
"However, Qianmian has not yet learned the 'Strange Control'. Should I let him/her learn the Strange Control skill first, and then integrate it into the 'Puppet Control Technique', or should I practice the skill to the expert level myself and then grow the skill fruit?"
Before this, Fang You had the ability to borrow powers and skills from the apostles.
At this time, based on this ability, he can extend the authority of fusion, use the body of an apostle as an anchor, and fuse to create new skills, not just limited to himself.
After thinking about it, I decided to work harder.
It takes 25,000 destiny points to fuse a puppet manipulation technique. It also requires various prerequisite skills. You have to learn them yourself and then monetize them with skill seeds. You can also teach them to more people.
For the future of the organization, Mr. Fang can only suffer.
Who makes him the mentor?
Puppet manipulation skills cannot be mastered in a short period of time, so Fang You simply stopped practicing and continued to try to integrate the skills.
"It turns out that it is possible to create purple-level skills. With the first one, we can have the second, third, and fourth ones."
"Even at the myth level, a purple skill can bring a huge improvement."
"Moreover, the fusion of multiple blue skills can create purple skills. So, if I create a few more purple skills and fuse them together, won't I be able to create the legendary gold-level skills?"
A golden future is waiting for you.
Fang You became excited and started to integrate.
"bite!"
"Hint: You have created a new skill 'Resist Fire Ring (Blue)'."
"Hint: You have created a new skill, 'Strike Skull Crusher Fist (Blue)'."
"Hint: You have created a new skill, 'Frost from the Sky (Green)'."
"Hint: Your fusion skill failed."
"Hint: Your fusion skill failed."
"Hint: You merge..."
Teacher Fang's face darkened.
Teacher Fang’s face turned even darker.
Teacher Fang’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
All the great ambitions and ambitions were ultimately met with the words "failure", "failure" and "failure".
Fang You adjusted his mentality.
"Skill fusion has traces to follow. For example, Palm Thunder and Blade Slash, even though they are both offensive skills, have different performances and combat modes, so they cannot be fused into one."
"Through this model, we can roughly determine what skills can be integrated and what cannot."
"That's the truth, but..."
A good cook cannot cook without rice!
The skills learned from other mentors seem to be many, but when broken down into a certain small category, there are very few suitable combinations, and only a few new skills can be integrated.
Or it could be a useless skill that doesn't change much after fusion.
"Is the fusion of authority useless?"
"No, at least I have created puppet manipulation and several blue-star skills. They are not useless. If I spend more time, I am confident that I can integrate several valuable blue skills."
After all, fusion requires the consumption of destiny points, and the higher the level, the greater the consumption, which prevents him from constantly trying and making mistakes.
Careful consideration must be given before integration.
Otherwise, Fang would have to call in a supercomputer to list all the possible permutations and combinations of dozens of skills.
This won't work.
While he was thinking, the head of an apostle of destiny in the panel vibrated slightly, and a small red dot appeared on it, which looked uncomfortable.
It's Yinling.
The Apostles of Destiny could chat with him remotely, either through text messages or voice messages. However, except in the early days of the organization or when the Apostles were far away in the strange world, Fang You seldom used this function, and there were few Apostles of Destiny contacting him.
It is even more impossible for Yinling, the king of slacking off, to @ him.
She would love to hide away.
The last time I @ him was when Yinling was away on a mission and asked him three times a day when he could get off work and go home.
"But Yinling is probably just slacking off in the base right now. Why did she come here all of a sudden? Could it be that...something happened to the organization?"
Thinking of this, Fang You gave up the idea of continuing to develop new skills and quickly opened Yinling's chat interface box.
"Teacher, if you don't show up, something serious is going to happen!"
Fang You was shocked.
"There are already hundreds of documents that need your signature piled up in your office. Stop slacking off, mentor, and get to work."
Fang You: “???”
I was actually identified as a slacker by the slacker king? How can I fix this?
After a little understanding, Fang You finally realized what had happened. It wasn't a serious matter like the sky falling, but it was also... not a small matter.
There were indeed too many matters that needed his approval, and the young assistant Jiang Sijun couldn't find him for several days. So he had to find Yin Ling, a senior executive in the organization who was easier to find, and asked Minister Yin Ling to send him a message.
Fang You stroked his chin.
"Indeed, it took me some time to advance to the mythical transformation, some more time to get familiar with the mythical power, and some more time to try to fuse the skills. But I haven't shown up for only a few days. I have not shown up for longer periods of time in the past. How come I have so many things piled up this time?"
"Oh, yes..."
He remembered that Xiao Huan was undergoing a transformation.
Without the assistance of the poster girl, any important matters would have to be reviewed by him.
He opened the panel and took a look at Xiao Huan's status. It showed that he was still in the process of transformation and needed time. Fang You rubbed his temples and got up and left the closed training ground.
When I arrived at the office, the documents had piled up half a person's height.
"Teacher, this is from the local offices. It contains information about investment cooperation between the various Oases and Blue Star."
"Instructor, this is the expenditure of the organization's non-staff personnel and the performance of their tasks."
"Teacher, the eldest prince of Falling Star City came to visit again two days ago."
"tutor,……"
These matters have already been handled by local first-level offices, and most of them have been simplified.
There are still many left.
However, Mr. Fang is now a legendary figure. His spiritual power spreads out, and documents in the office float up and scatter everywhere as if they were nailed to the wall.
His spiritual thoughts also scanned over immediately. It was much clearer than seeing with the eyes. One thought could produce ten lines, and he was processing several documents at the same time.
The entire brain works as fast as a computer, classifying and organizing different types of information and at the same time thinking about the best way to deal with it.
Several pens also flew up under the control of invisible hands, signing their names on documents one by one.
quite a while,
It only took about an hour. Fang You snapped his fingers, and the documents hanging in the air began to fall and return to their original places.
It was very quick, it was done in an hour.
Just a little tired.
Fang You rubbed his swollen temples. It wasn't because he consumed too much energy. It wasn't a problem for him to maintain the dispersion of his mental power, the manipulation of the invisible hand, the scanning with his spiritual thoughts, etc. for a few hours.
His control over energy ensured precise manipulation, so that the paper would not be torn by excessive force when it floated up.
After reaching the mythical level, the speed of life energy recovery is several times faster than before.
The most important thing is to have a fast brain.
What used to take at least half a day to complete can now be done in an hour.
As for being tired? Of course work is tiring!
“This instructor has worked so hard.”
After finishing the work, Fang You still sat in the office chair, crossed his legs, and looked up at the white ceiling.
"Nowadays, more and more large oases are cooperating with Blue Star, and many of them have given up their last bit of reserve. However, although they say they are cooperating deeply, in fact, many oases still have reservations."
"The scale of their investment in building a factory on Blue Star is not large. The personnel they sent to Blue Star are mostly second-level elites, and the technical personnel are only veterans, without any experts."
Simply put, even if all the investment in Blue Star is lost, these large oases will not suffer much loss.
Fang You was not unaware of the reason.
"The root cause is that the remaining 'lifespan' of Blue Planet is not long. In the eyes of the Oasis people, even if the evil god camp suffers a loss and stops attacking Blue Planet, Blue Planet will still be swallowed up sooner or later."
"It's possible to resist erosion, but to completely resist erosion from the strange world? That's impossible."
Fang You couldn't possibly explain the truth behind this. He hoped that outsiders wouldn't see through it.
Only in this way can Blue Star gain more time for development.
But because of this, Oasis's investment and construction scale in Blue Star is not large - how can they spend a lot of effort to build something that will be scrapped in a few years?
He understood.
"If Blue Star had its own oasis, things might be very different."
"There is no need to make multiple transactions with Oasis for large amounts. Moreover, it can also trick more Oasis people into joining the 996 work schedule. After all, there are too few Oasis elites who can enter Blue Star, and there are no restrictions on entering Oasis."
The plan to find the oasis started about a month ago.
Carried out by An Jianyou Team.
Only her team could bypass the blockade of the evil god camp and quietly enter the depths of the strange world.
However, after a month, I still haven’t found a suitable target.
You can't rush it. You can't rush it.
Fang You entered An Jianyou's field of vision and took a few glances, then retracted his gaze and continued to study the fusion of skills.
As for finding the oasis, just wait for news from Sister An.
If you have time, you might as well create a few more skills.
…
Sunset and sunrise.
After dealing with a bunch of affairs, Instructor Fang stayed in the training ground for three days and three nights without eating or drinking a single drop of water.
But it doesn’t matter. The existence of myths has surpassed the limits of mortals, and they can be very energetic even without food or water.
"Limited by fate points, I dare not merge at will, but I still created several blue-level skills."
"Not only that..."
During their exploration, the Chinese instructors discovered that skill integration is not limited to skills.
He closed his eyes.
Dozens of green, blue, and purple light balls appeared in front of him. These were the skills he had learned. When he looked through these skill light balls and continued to look into the depths of the indescribable space, he also discovered...
A ball that is almost transparent, but there seems to be flashes of light of other colors inside it.
"Awakening Ability: Burning Faith"!
"Fusion is not limited to skills. Awakened abilities and even personal innate talents can all be incorporated as materials."
Teacher Fang himself has no skills.
As for the ability of Burning Faith, it can be combined with any skill but the result of the fusion is... not much change.
After much thought, Fang You decided to leave this precious opportunity to others.
Open the panel.
Select the Apostle of Destiny portrait and enter.
Scan the skill columns one by one to analyze and judge.
quite a while,
Teacher Fang has a choice.
"It's decided to be you."
…
…
The strange world, the Falling Star Cave, the Streetlamp Town.
Streetlamp Town is the name of this oasis. It is not a big oasis, nor an elite oasis. It is just an ordinary oasis that exists in the strange world and is numerous and inconspicuous.
These oases may be the continuation of a certain civilization in a certain world, or they may have split from a large oasis.
No one cares.
Because you never know when it will disappear.
Ludeng Town is an "old oasis" that has lasted for more than 30 years.
"You were born in the Oasis and have never seen the vast mountains, rivers and land, but you must remember and not forget our history. We come from the El World, a country called Denghuang Nation."
"This is also the origin of our name 'Street Light Town'. I hope that one day, our Street Light Town Oasis can be renamed the Great Light Oasis!"
In the simple classroom, a hunchbacked old man with gray hair and wrinkles on his face was telling the history of Ludeng Town with a kind smile.
Memories float in the water.
It is said that it was inherited from a glorious country, but at this time, the Street Light Town is just like its name, just an ordinary and even somewhat shabby town with a population of only a few thousand. The historical documents, information technology, and antique collections of the Denghuang Kingdom have been lost during the migration, and the old man himself seems to have a vague memory of the past.
As he spoke, he fell silent.
Over the past thirty years, the population of Ludeng Town has expanded from hundreds to thousands. The development speed is actually not slow. It’s just that small oases like Ludeng Town have poor foundations and are too weak. They do not have much ability to explore far away from the oasis. In addition, they have weak risk resistance and suffer major losses from time to time, so development is naturally difficult.
"Compared to other small oases, our Streetlight Town is at least luckier. Thanks to the Falling Star City, we were chosen as a transit and resting place."
This may sound a bit lofty, but due to its geographical location, teams from Falling Star City heading to other regions would often rest for a night in Streetlight Town before setting off again the next day.
This brought a lot of income to the street lamp town.
The most magnificent building in the entire Street Lamp Town Oasis is not the mayor's house, but the Street Lamp Hotel. Over time, Street Lamp Town has become famous, and occasionally there will be awakened people passing by who will rest here.
"Mayor..."
When the old man left the simple classroom, a one-eyed middle-aged man came over and said in a low voice,
"Mayor, several girls came to the hotel today. They looked very young and immature, but they were wearing very valuable weapons. Should we..."
A fierce light flashed in the one-eyed middle-aged man’s eyes.
Street Lamp Town was too poor, so poor that robbers seldom attacked them. Even though teams from Falling Star City passed by from time to time, some of these teams ate and drank lavishly in the town without paying a single ghost crystal. Street Lamp Town had its grievances but dared not speak out.
This is the reality of Little Oasis.
They must seize every opportunity to strengthen themselves, otherwise one day, an irresistible disaster will befall, and the entire oasis will be wiped out and become history that will soon be forgotten.
"Those girls just casually pulled out a bag of strange crystals, and even...even had a space strange weapon!"
"They are likely to have run away from some big oasis. They are the kind of noble ladies who ran away from home and are ignorant of the ways of the world."
The one-eyed middle-aged man said.
He had read similar novels about how a naive noble lady became a fat sheep to be slaughtered.
Maybe, Streetlamp Town can become rich overnight and quickly grow to the level of a large oasis and get on the right track. By that time, it will naturally stop doing this kind of shady business.
When the hunchbacked old man heard this, he pondered for a while and still shook his head.
The one-eyed middle-aged man was a little anxious, "Mayor, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
The hunchbacked old man said, "Anyone who can travel far in the strange world must be at least a triple awakener, and a triple awakener from the Great Oasis. Do you really think we can easily eat him?"
"Besides, he even has a storage device. Doesn't he have a few high-level devices and life-saving items?"
"Let's take a step back and say that even if we succeed, will we be retaliated by the Great Oasis? With the Great Oasis's ability, it won't be difficult to find clues, because we don't have the ability to cover it up."
"You are not making money, you are inviting disaster!"
The one-eyed middle-aged man staggered back two steps, opened his mouth, and finally fell silent.
"I know you're thinking about our Streetlamp Town, but your idea is a little radical, but..."
The hunchbacked old man paused, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "We are doing business in Ludeng Town. Since these girls have money, we should find a way to get their money out."
The one-eyed middle-aged man was startled.
The one-eyed middle-aged man suddenly realized.
"Mayor, you are really smart."
…
Streetlight Town, Streetlight Hotel.
An Jianyou and his group of four booked a top-notch suite. Inside the room, An Jianyou spread out the tablecloth and took out one delicacy after another from his hometown from his storage ring.
"Woo woo woo, it's finally time for dinner!"
"But our packaged delicacies are becoming less and less. We may have to eat dry food soon."
"I heard that many caravans pass through this Streetlight Town. How about buying some food reserves here?"
"Don't eat anything outside. It's not safe."
Looking at his chattering companions, An Jianyou smiled cheerfully.
Suddenly, she was stunned.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
She said quickly, "The instructor wants to see me for something. Can you hold the door for me?"
After saying that, she rushed into the room and closed the door, leaving the three friends looking at each other in bewilderment.
In the candlelit bedroom, An Jianyou's face showed surprise.
She caught her breath quickly.
Sit upright, calm down, and close your eyes.
A different process of Dharma transmission than before began. She felt that several skills she had mastered suddenly collided, creating mysterious sparks, and mysterious information flooded into her mind.
An Jianyou suddenly realized and smiled.
At the same time, Fang You, who was far away on Blue Star, looked at the prompts on the panel and smiled.
"bite!"
"Hint: Do you want to fuse 'Eye of the Netherworld (Talent)', 'Amplification (Ability)', 'Trickster Control (Blue)', 'Meditation (Blue)', and 'Thread Control (Blue)'? This fusion will consume 13.5W destiny points."
…
"bite!"
"Hint: The fusion has created An Jianyou's unique skill 'Netherworld Master (Gold)'"
——
"Golden Envoy of the Netherworld"
"Instructions: On the basis of controlling the Guixie, you can cultivate the Guixie to make it break through the limit. The degree of improvement and the difficulty of the breakthrough are related to the Guixie itself. There is a chance that the Guixie will be born with intelligence.
