Chapter 151 151 It's getting worse
Seeing that the narrator stopped talking, Xu Zhi closed his eyes and lay silently on the bed.
The conversation with the narrator suddenly put an extra burden on her shoulders. It was not to save the world, but that she could no longer ignore those long-standing questions. And when the fate of the world was unclear, how could she survive in this fog?
Xu Zhi really has no idea about saving the world. She doesn’t care about the survival of the world at all, but if the world is destroyed, how can she survive?
In this conversation with the narrator, in addition to learning the bad news, Xu Zhi also got a glimpse of some of the things that the narrator unconsciously revealed.
It said that it was prepared for Xu Zhi to tear its soul apart.
But at that time, the game console was clearly undergoing maintenance, which confirmed that the narrator did not perform any maintenance at all.
Then why pretend to maintain it?
It is impossible that it was just for Xu Zhi to see and to deceive her. The narration is not that kind of "character". It must have its meaning for being like this.
If it's not for Xu Zhi to see, then it's for something else. Even Xu Zhi will know what it is.
The maintenance at that time, combined with the narrator's current words, can show that it did not want to abandon or ignore Xu Zhi. Even though it was maintaining him on the surface, it was actually paying close attention to Xu Zhi in secret.
Is it hiding from something?
So that's why you pretend to maintain it?
Otherwise, what's the point?
If you are hiding, then what are you hiding from and why are you hiding?
Perhaps, by figuring out these questions, we can find the essence of game consoles.
If it were before, Xu Zhi would probably just start it, thinking it was too troublesome and not thinking about it anymore, but now she can't be so relaxed.
Even if it seems troublesome, you must continue to think hard.
The more obvious problems we face now are:
1. The game console chose to hide itself when it was in the city center. Perhaps it was avoiding something.
2. There are problems with the strength of these archbishops. Even Xu Zhi's acquisition of that foundation seems abnormal. The reason needs to be investigated. This may be related to a conspiracy that shrouds the world.
3. The problem appeared very early. Even the gathering of Cloud City in the fog was an extremely abnormal thing. Is this due to the same reason as the current archbishop not being worthy of his title, or is it also the layout of "Him"?
4. The ultimate question is what “He” wants to do and how to stop him.
Xu Zhi lay on the bed, sorting out the problems and troubles he was facing in his mind one by one. After deciding what he should do next, he opened his eyes and picked up the game console again.
"Okay, now that I've finished thinking about the troublesome things, let's get on with the fun stuff!"
There was no moment of mourning for the uncertain future!
Draw a card!
Xu Zhi clicked on the clan selection interface, and inexplicably felt like it had been a long time since he last clicked on it.
When I clicked on it, a prompt popped up.
[Please note: As your life level increases, the clans you can choose from will become more special.]
This time, the clan selection interface still has three options.
But unlike the previous mutated animals, this time the options are all things that Xu Zhi can't tell what they are at first glance, and they are all level 1.
"Isn't there an instruction manual or something?"
The narrator didn't respond and seemed busy.
Seeing this, Xu Zhi could only rely on his intuition to make a choice.
[1. Spell Level 1]
【2. Bone Erosion Lv1】
3. Epidemic Level 1
How to say it, combining the name and ability of [Nightmare] before, Xu Zhi could probably vaguely guess what abilities these three would have.
Among them, Xu Zhi was most curious about [Curse], so she decisively chose this.
[Please note: This family is special and its appearance is different from ordinary families. Do you want to select this family?]
"Speciality?"
"How special can it be?"
She had seen the little alien and the nightmare before, so now she wanted to see what was so special about this spell.
She clicked OK, but unexpectedly, another prompt popped up.
[Please note that this alien will be bound to you due to its special form. Is this acceptable?]
Xu Zhi:?
Sure!
[Please note that due to the special form of this alien, you will feel a little uncomfortable when it descends. Do you want to choose this alien? ]
"You're getting a bit annoying!"
"Confirmed!"
This time, the prompt finally did not pop up again.
Xu Zhi looked at the words "Selection Successful" on the screen with great anticipation. Then, in less than five seconds, she realized what the "discomfort" mentioned in the subtitles meant.
It was as if a stream of air suddenly appeared in her throat, or as if some tiny thorns that posed no threat to her were slowly climbing into her body. A strong sense of a foreign body appeared in her throat, making Xu Zhi want to swallow it, but the other party lay on it like a parasite, motionless.
Is this what is called discomfort?
It's really uncomfortable.
It's a bit like having a fish bone stuck in your throat that doesn't hurt.
This time's clan is really weird!
Rather than being a family, they are more like parasites.
Xu Zhi clicked on its property panel with a puzzled look on his face.
[Family: Curse Lv1
Spirit: 0 (Because your clan is a special existence, any mental attack cannot directly affect it)
Physical: 1 (Because your clan is a special being, its physical strength will not grow and will always remain at 1)
Attribute: Moth
Traits: Parasitism, Charm, Penetration, Secret
Special ability: Cursed Voice]
[Cursed Voice: The curse resides within your body. You can expend a certain amount of supernatural energy to speak words containing curses. The effectiveness of these words is related to the supernatural energy you spend. As your clan's level increases, the things you can curse will also increase.]
[Currently, you can probably only curse others to fall. If the curse exceeds the current capabilities of your clan, it will have no effect, wasting your extraordinary abilities.]
[The spell has penetrating power and can ignore the opponent's mental defense to a certain extent.]
[Please be careful and protect your throat. The curse is entrenched there. When your throat is pierced, the curse will die with it.]
“It’s really special.”
0 points of mental strength, plus 1 point of physical strength.
Moreover, what is written on the spiritual side is that any mental attack cannot directly affect it, which means that some indirect attacks are feasible?
But Xu Zhi didn't know what kind of mental attack would come.
And from now on, she probably really has to protect her throat.
"So the question is, how do I feed it the core?"
【Due to the special nature of this clan, it.】
Suddenly, the screen of the game console flickered.
【it】
【..it】
It—it
【————Sizzle.】
Xu Zhi frowned suddenly, his expression becoming serious: "What's wrong with you?"
"CPU burned out?"
The screen flickered again, the garbled subtitles disappeared, and the narration returned.
[Xu Zhi, I've figured out Ye Yan's situation, but things have gotten worse.]
The narrator called her name seriously for the first time.
I spent some time sorting out the outline and details. Today is a double update.
