When Feng Qi woke up the next day, he met Lin Ran again.
He found that Lin Ran's hair and eyes had turned purple.
Even though he had known that Lin Ran would be possessed by the Lord of Mist last night, he still felt distressed when he looked at Lin Ran's familiar face.
After a short silence, he suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, greeted the Lord of Mist who had opened his arms, hugged him and patted his back.
What he could do now was not to let Lin Ran's sacrifice go to waste.
So he had to go on more firmly, lurking beside the Lord of Mist, to explore more useful intelligence information.
When the two separated, Feng Qi smiled and said:
"Do you want me to help you dye your hair? You look too eye-catching now."
Hearing this, the Lord of Mist said nonchalantly:
"Now I am the actual controller of the Tiger Soul Research Institute. What does it matter if my hair changes color... But I'll still dye it. After all, I am now a public figure and I must face the outside world often."
At the end, the Lord of Mist changed his mind.
"Let's talk somewhere else." Feng Qi said at this time, and turned to walk towards his room.
Seeing this, the Lord of Mist immediately followed him.
He returned to the room, closed the door, and sat down on the edge of the bed. He looked at the Lord of Mist who was already sitting on the sofa:
"How much of Lin Ran's memory have you obtained?"
"Not much, a lot of memory is missing, maybe it's because I was too eager during the possession." The Lord of Mist said very calmly.
He didn't care about Lin Ran's memory at all. What
he cared about was always Lin Ran's influence.
What puzzled him was that he could obtain about 70% of the memory content of the body owner in a normal possession. He
could roughly understand the growth process of the body owner.
It was like a video clip, skipping a lot of content, but he could still roughly understand the story.
But he could read less than 30% of Lin Ran's memory.
Especially the memory content of the past year or so, which was completely blank.
He was very confused about this, but he didn't think about it carefully, thinking that it was caused by his improper operation during the possession.
But what the Lord of Mist didn't know was.
Lin Ran's memory had long been washed by the memory clearing liquid.
The process of washing memory was explained in detail in the instruction manual that Lin Ran received at that time.
Each milligram of memory clearing liquid can clear about 20 hours of memory.
Wei Wei sent a bottle of 500 milligrams, which can clear 10,000 hours of memory.
It is about 416 days of memory clearing.
So Lin Ran, who drank the memory clearing liquid, has a completely blank memory for more than a year.
But the effect of the memory clearing liquid with an instruction manual is naturally not that simple.
It's like an anesthetic injection.
When Lin Ran drank all the memory clearing liquid, his memory was actually completely covered by the clearing range.
Just like doing surgery under general anesthesia, the effect of anesthesia will eventually disappear.
The process of memory clearing is somewhat similar.
During the time when Lin Ran drank the memory clearing liquid, his memory was completely covered, which is why he gradually couldn't remember any memory.
This state will last for several hours, and then the memory will slowly return.
In the end, only the part of the memory marked with the efficacy will be completely deleted.
After the Lord of Mist succeeded in taking over Lin Ran's body, he only read about 30% of Lin Ran's memory because of his actions during the process of Lin Ran's gradual memory recovery.
This caused Lin Ran's memory recovery process to be interrupted halfway, and only 30% of his memory was retained.
Otherwise, even if the Lord of Mist obtained incomplete memories, except for the more than one year of drug efficacy, the rest of the memory would not be affected much.
The problem that the memory clearing liquid cannot be interrupted by external forces during the recovery process of the drug efficacy is naturally known to Lin Ran who has read the instructions.
But for Lin Ran at that time, it didn't matter how much memory was cleared.
...
Looking at the Lord of Mist who was still confused about the memory problem, Feng Qi said at this time:
"What are your plans next?"
Faced with the question, a smile appeared on the face of the Lord of Mist:
"First, consolidate my control over the Hupo Research Institute. Although I have completely controlled the remaining Night Shadow Clan members, the control of the Hupo subordinate war group has not been completed. Next, I need to let the Night Shadow Clan members continue to control the leaders of the various Hupo subordinate war groups by mental control..."
Listening to the Lord of Mist talking about the next plan, Feng Qi nodded continuously.
At this time, the Lord of the Mist changed his tone:
"By the way, I have also thought of a way for you to become stronger. The road to the top will definitely become more and more difficult. I hope you can have the power to protect yourself, so your plan to improve your strength needs to be launched as soon as possible."
"Tell me in detail." He couldn't help but be curious.
"With the miracle bracelet, you have now obtained a shortcut to become stronger. I think you can completely build your own statue in human civilization, and then gather the power of faith of believers, and use the faith of all mankind to rapidly improve your strength."
"The specific implementation method is not difficult. Next, I will use your name to promote the blood and flesh sacrifice. At that time, your status in human society will definitely be greatly improved... When the time is right, I will use social opinion to help you build a statue for the world to worship."
Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn't help but be stunned.
He thought of many ways to collect faith, but he didn't think of the promotion method mentioned by the Lord of the Mist.
But this method seems very inappropriate to him.
There are indeed many figures in history who were worshipped as gods after their death. The most famous one is Guan Yu, who is worshipped as the God of Wealth by the world.
However, these figures were generally worshipped as gods only after their death, and did not receive such treatment during their lifetime.
As if seeing his thoughts, the Lord of the Mist spoke at this time:
"People of this era admire heroes the most. It only takes a process to establish a statue with the image of a hero and then gradually deify it."
"Don't forget that the foundation of your personality was actually laid a long time ago. You were hailed as the rising star of cultivation when you were in Xingcheng Academy. It is completely reasonable for you to launch "Blood and Flesh Sacrifice" on the grounds of concentrating on research."
"What you lack now is just an opportunity. It is true that no one has been worshipped as a god in his lifetime, but it does not mean that there will be no one in the future... When the time comes, I will use Lin Ran's influence to help you. As long as I continue to release my high evaluation of the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice to the outside world, the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice will soon be promoted..."
After hearing the last part, Feng Qi finally understood the Lord of the Mist's plan.
This plan can be called the "God Creation Plan".
The Blood and Flesh Sacrifice has two uses this time.
The purpose of the dark line is similar to the previous timeline.
It is mainly to sow seeds for human civilization and the weak races in the field, making them potential "sacrifices", waiting for the Lord of the Mist to activate the switch in the future to complete the harvest.
It's just that the "Blood and Flesh Sacrifice" on this timeline has an additional purpose.
It is used to deceive all mankind.
In this way, he can create a "god" for him, and then use the faith of all mankind to quickly improve his strength.
From the spiritual level to the physical level, the Lord of the Mist obviously wants to take it all this time. He
regards all mankind as leeks.
It can also be called a stepping stone on the road to growth.
He obviously can't refuse the plan mentioned by the Lord of the Mist, and there is no reason to refuse.
Thinking of this, he looked at the Lord of the Mist and said :
"I roughly understand your idea. When you decide to promote the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice, you can start to try it."
The Lord of the Mist nodded, then looked at him curiously and said:
"You have been in human society for so many years. Can you explain why humans believe in gods?" "
In fact, I have always been puzzled by a question. Why do humans believe in so-called gods? Even if they really exist, they have never given positive feedback. What is the meaning of believing in them?"
Faced with the question, Feng Qi couldn't help but remain silent.
After thinking for a moment, he looked at the Lord of Mist and said,
"Do you, the Mist Clan, have gods to believe in?"
"No, we only believe that power can change fate."
He was not surprised by the Lord of Mist's answer, and then continued to ask,
"Do you believe in fate?"
"No, in my opinion, fate is an excuse for the weak. Losers attribute the reason for their failure to fate. The funny thing is that these weak people who believe in fate also think that the success of the strong is also arranged by fate."
Feng Qi slightly agreed with the Lord of Mist's words.
But not completely.
The experience of multiple timelines made him understand that fate really exists.
History that is destined to appear will appear in the dark.
And he is a very unique existence.
He is like a butterfly that shuttles through the long river of history, flapping his wings to constantly change the fate of everyone.
So he believes in fate, but he doesn't believe in fate.
What he believes is that fate does exist, but he doesn't believe that it is destined and cannot be changed.
His efforts in multiple timelines are to change fate against the will of heaven.
"Do you think that human belief in gods is related to fate?" The Lord of Mist asked curiously at this time.
"Yes, those believers all believe in fate, and think that believing in gods can change their predetermined fate and move them in a better direction. Some of them even believe in the theory of fate judgment after death."
"It's really ignorant."
"In fact, I am very optimistic about the human race. They have the thinking of the strong. The only shortcoming is that they have been exposed to spiritual energy for a very short time. But there is no doubt that if this race can develop steadily, it will have huge growth potential. It's just that many of their behaviors should have been eliminated long ago in my opinion."
Hearing this, Feng Qi couldn't help shaking his head:
"You think faith is useless only because faith cannot bring practical meaning to human beings. But in fact, although these believers did not get positive feedback from the gods, they gained strength from the depths of their hearts."
"Especially when a person is in a desperate situation, faith can sometimes make him burst out unimaginable potential."
"In addition, faith also brings many positive meanings."
Looking at the Lord of the Mist with a puzzled face, he explained:
"Let me give you an example. A big event happened on the seashore of the Old City. A group of fishermen became greedy and hid all the supplies escorted by a certain regiment on the seabed. The regiment in charge of the escort faced the risk of mission failure and even compensation."
"Faced with the denial of these fishermen, they were helpless. After all, the first rule of the regiment was not to attack civilians, and the fishermen did not admit that they had hidden the supplies at all."
"In the end, the commander of the regiment responsible for escorting the supplies took these fishermen to the Dragon King Temple on the seashore and asked them to swear in front of the Dragon King statue that they did not hide the supplies."
"The fishermen who originally refused to admit it finally hesitated in front of the gods they believed in, and finally chose to confess their actions. This is a manifestation brought by faith, which has positive significance for the stability within the ethnic group."
After listening to his explanation, the Lord of Mist fell into deep thought.
Seeing the confusion on the face of the Lord of Mist, Feng Qi shook his head.
He knew that his explanation would take time for the Lord of Mist to digest and understand.
Although the Lord of Mist has changed multiple human bodies along the way and read many human memories.
But this kind of reading is like watching a movie clip.
There is no such thing as a sense of substitution.
The Lord of the Mist can understand many habits of humans by reading memories, but cannot understand the essence.
For example, faith.
The Lord of the Mist lives in a domain world where the strong prey on the weak. He believes that the bigger the fist, the more right it is. He does not expect the illusory gods to protect his tribe.
Humans live in a peaceful era and pursue spiritual transcendence.
But after the invasion of the domain, humans have less and less faith in gods.
In the harsh environment, more and more humans have turned to believe in human heroes, and from worshipping gods in an illusory way, they have begun to pursue the essence, just as the Lord of the Mist described.
The reason is nothing more than different environments, which leads to different ways of thinking about problems.
After further discussion, the discussion about building a statue of the god is put aside for the time being.
At this time, Feng Qi looked at the Lord of the Mist and asked,
"When do you plan to start promoting the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice?"
"Don't rush this. I need to lay some groundwork for you first. Tomorrow I will transfer you to the practice research group, and then let the practice researchers controlled by the Night Shadow Clan cooperate with you to carry out research, and at the same time release relevant information to the outside world for warm-up... In short, just release a message to the outside world that you, Feng Qi, are going to do something big."
"Then there will be real-time follow-up of the news to make the outside world curious about your research. During this period, I will also help you promote it in the name of Lin Ran. After the warm-up is over, we can launch "Blood and Flesh Sacrifice". At that time, there will definitely be a large number of practitioners following suit."
At this point, the Lord of the Mist paused, and then continued,
"As for the efficacy of the Blood and Flesh Sacrifice, there is no existing practice in human practice that can compare with the "Blood and Flesh Sacrifice". In the words of Xiao Liu at the steel plant, there is not a single one that can beat it."
Looking at the Lord of the Mist with a confident smile on his face, Feng Qi nodded, and then continued to ask,
"By the way, what are your plans for the Institute of Science and Technology?"
In response to the question, the Lord of Mist immediately said:
"I have already thought about this issue. The Institute of Science and Technology has nothing to do with us, but it will definitely be one of our competitors in the future. We need to find out what their Black Death Plan is as soon as possible."
"So, what are you going to do?"
"I plan to train a few spies with scientific research potential, and then find a way to infiltrate the core circle of the Institute of Science and Technology to learn about the relevant secrets."
Hearing this, Feng Qi realized that the timeline was back on track again.
According to the normal timeline
, one of the spies trained by the Lord of Mist will successfully enter the core circle of Hupo.
The most important thing is that the guy has mixed into the first echelon of the core circle. He
has even been exposed to the most core secrets.
If it weren't for him to divert the firepower of the Institute of Science and Technology, the spy might not have revealed his identity until his death.
