Chapter 16 16. Xu Zhi's Extraordinary Ability
After asking the two followers to rush back immediately, Xu Zhi opened the warehouse and clicked on the pink core. Now that she had it, she naturally wanted to understand it.
When the pink core is selected, a word appears next to it: [Heart]
"Heart?"
A confusing name.
After clicking and understanding skillfully, knowledge about the [Heart] attribute will appear on the game screen.
Heart: The Principle of Permanence and Continuity
It is a principle of life, survival, and protection, a principle of a never-ending drumbeat and dance, linked to music, yet also connected to skin and anatomy. It is unstoppable in the face of adversity, with an indomitable optimism and dogged determination.
“Wow.”
The girl let out an emotionless "wow".
This is the most positive description of the currently known attributes that she feels.
After reading the description, Xu Zhi began to understand why this attribute was called [Heart].
"I feel like this is a very useful attribute for a spirit body."
If she gains something when activating her spiritual body, the preservation and protection of the [Heart] attribute may help her survive until the moment when her spiritual body disappears naturally.
But it's too early to say this now, and she has no intention of using her spiritual body again for the time being.
Currently, she already knew half of the eight attributes and had some understanding of how to use the core. Xu Zhi planned to use this to make a deal with Shen Jinwen tomorrow and ask her to agree to his request.
After nightfall, even though the dog stared at her with longing eyes and acted cute, Xu Zhi only let Xiaoyi eat all the [Blade] attribute cores.
It's not that she favors any one of them. Xu Zhi feels basically the same towards all of them. She is just distributing the core purely for utilitarian reasons. However, seeing the lost look on the dog's face, Xu Zhi paused subtly. After thinking about it, she raised her head and rubbed the dog's head. Sure enough, the dog forgot its loss the next second, wagging its tail and jumping on her like crazy, trying to lick her again without any hesitation.
".Is this the enthusiasm of a puppy?"
Xu Zhi pulled the dog off his body with great difficulty, and secretly vowed never to touch a dog's head easily again!
After comforting the dog, Xu Zhi took out two cores with the attribute of [Moth].
"I have four of these now. Please, awaken a supernatural power for me!"
Perhaps the prayer worked. After eating the two gray cores, Xu Zhi's hallucination changed again.
She no longer felt that she was any closer to the candlelight, but the difference was:
A gray moth seemed to be lost and no longer flew towards the candlelight, but stumbled in front of her.
Xu Zhi looked closely and found that this moth looked slightly different from the other moths. Simply put, it looked more like a delicate gray butterfly rather than an ordinary moth.
It hesitated for a while in front of Xu Zhi, then flapped its wings and drew a shaky curve in the air. Finally, it landed on the tip of the girl's nose. Finally, it gently flapped its wings and turned into bursts of gray light and merged into the girl's body.
In a trance, Xu Zhi seemed to see the dazzling candlelight flickering in the distance for a moment. Before she could see it clearly, she regained consciousness the next second.
“.”
Xu Zhi was a little confused. She didn't have much experience with the changes in illusions, so she didn't know what was happening.
Fortunately, she still has a game console!
Xu Zhi looked down at the game screen, and sure enough, a new narration appeared.
In the old world, people used invisible techniques to free their spirits from the constraints of their bodies, allowing them to ascend from the material world to Mansu, cross the sea of dreams, reach the abode of the sun, and the other side of the great dream, and obtain what they seek.
[Nowadays, creatures no longer need tedious steps and strong faith to obtain extraordinary powers, but they still need to cross the sea of dreams. Reaching the abode of the sun is still extremely difficult.]
[And you took the first step. Although, you seem to have made some mistakes, but isn't this the moth's choice?]
[Change, fantasy, chaos and secrets, you are its best interpretation. ]
[Congratulations, you have obtained the extraordinary ability: the Eye of Prying]
[The amount of supernatural power consumed when using a supernatural ability is proportional to its level. The more powerful the supernatural ability, the more energy it requires to support it. However, the Eye of Secrets is not weak.]
[Prying Eyes: When you use your supernatural powers, no secrets can escape your eyes.] [The secrets you can spy on increase as your supernatural level increases.]
[But you cannot see the secrets of those who are more powerful than you. Use your eyes carefully. When they see something they shouldn't see, they will be bitten back.]
"Did I go astray?"
Xu Zhi was a little surprised at first, but then she thought that no one had taught her this, so it was normal for her to take the wrong path, right?
Then he was happy that he finally gained extraordinary abilities. Although it was a bit regrettable that they were not offensive, it was better to have them than not, right?
"How do I use the Secret Eye?"
Xu Zhi frowned slightly and felt carefully, and easily discovered some differences. When she focused her attention on her eyes, she could feel that there was something more in her body.
She couldn't explain the feeling. Those extra things were like the blood in her body, continuously providing her with "energy". They were also like her innate fingers. She could easily let them attach to her eyes, but they were not very strong and could only stay attached to her eyes for about three seconds.
Xu Zhi tried to open her eyes and look at the dog. In fact, she was more curious about the game console, but she remembered the sentence "Use your eyes carefully" in her heart. There was no doubt that the game console definitely had secrets far beyond her, and she couldn't commit suicide.
In her eyes, the dog remained the same, but a pale yellow flame ignited at its heart, the exact same color as the Blade attribute core. It seemed she could now use her Peering Eyes to discern the attributes of living things. This was a surprising discovery. Attributes were clearly extremely important; being able to immediately detect an opponent's attributes gave her the upper hand. And this was only the secrets she could glimpse at the moment; as she grew stronger, she would be able to "see" even more.
Xu Zhi, who was observing the dog, could not see that her eyes had also become gray as if covered by a layer of fog. After three seconds, the extraordinary energy in her body was exhausted, the light yellow flames in her eyes disappeared, and her pupils returned to normal.
A feeling of weakness, similar to when he was terminally ill before, came from every crevice of his body. It was the feeling of having his extraordinary strength exhausted.
If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be driven crazy by this weak feeling that felt like every bone was itching, but Xu Zhi had already gotten used to it.
She could even put away the game console and cover herself with the quilt without changing her expression, and fall asleep despite this extremely uncomfortable feeling.
After all, this is how she had always lived in the past.
Just before falling asleep, Xu Zhi was thinking about it in a daze.
"I should keep a moth attribute core as a backup in the future."
Used to replenish extraordinary energy after opening the Eye of Insight.
After all, who would want to endure it if it would make them feel better?
