Chapter 127 New Mushrooms



In the dark environment at the bottom of the cabin of the "Future".

Frank Lee lit a candle, illuminating the long table filled with meat, mushrooms, wheat, and fish.

He pushed these things aside at random and cleared out a space that was just big enough to hold a piece of letter paper.

Then, he spread out the letter paper, picked up the pen, and wrote with an excited expression:

"My dear friend Hermann, I'm glad that you think the dried mushrooms I bought last time are good. Perhaps they are more useful than I thought. I will review them again when I have some free time.

"Because I have devoted myself to the experiment you mentioned, I have stopped making it. Most of the previous ones were snatched away and burned by Nina. Only the last three are left. I hope they can be of help to you.

"Along with them is the latest product, a kind of mushroom that can grow and reproduce in the dark by devouring flesh and blood. It has three categories. One is hybridized with wheat and can be ground into mushroom powder to produce bread. One has the characteristics of a hybrid cow and can be used to extract milk. One is hybridized with fish and can bring a fresh taste with thick and dense meat.

"One thing to note is that they must not be eaten raw. They must be boiled in hot water above 90 degrees Celsius for at least five minutes to kill their activity. Otherwise, no matter what they become, they will actively absorb the surrounding flesh and blood, including human organs.

“Another point is that they cannot distinguish between normal flesh and blood and monster flesh and blood, and are unable to effectively deal with the latter, which will accumulate corresponding toxicity or madness.

"I feel that they will undergo different mutations and produce different hazards due to the flesh and blood of different types of monsters, but this cannot be confirmed because I lack enough monster corpses for research. If you get them during your adventure, please send them to me. I only need a small amount.

"As for whether there are other problems, I am not sure. This is still a semi-finished product and I cannot conduct more attempts and observations...

"Wishing you good luck and a fruitful adventure. Your most sincere friend, Frank Lee."

Putting down the pen, Frank read the reply from the beginning, folded it up with satisfaction, found a gold coin and placed it on top.

He quickly set up the ritual to summon the messenger and prepared to recite the spell.

At this moment, he subconsciously looked around and was stunned for two seconds.

Then Frank moved all the soil piled nearby outside the door.

…………

In Queens, in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall's family.

Audrey was hiding in her room, staring at the glass bottle in her hand.

The bottle is filled with transparent, colorless viscous liquid. When it is quiet, it is like a mirror, completely reflecting everything within the range. When it fluctuates, there are small whirlpools rotating silently beneath the surface.

This is the "Hypnotist" potion that has just been successfully prepared!

Audrey has digested the "Psychologist" potion and plans to advance to Sequence 6 before Backlund's "Psychological Alchemy Society" contacts her.

After using "Calm" to adjust her mental state, Audrey bit her lip lightly, raised the glass bottle, and poured the potion into her mouth.

After a brief moment of coldness, she suddenly felt her consciousness explode, and her body seemed to be infected, becoming a little weak.

At this moment, her spiritual body, astral body, and etheric body seemed to be absorbed and assimilated by her mental body. Her whole body floated up like a polymer of pure thoughts, sensing the boundless sea of ​​collective subconsciousness that connected all living beings, and the spiritual sky that was opposite to it.

Having experienced being frightened during the "psychologist" stage, Audrey did not panic at this time. She remained clear-headed and suppressed the instinctive impulse to merge into the "sea", allowing her consciousness to diverge endlessly and then shrink back like a rubber band.

She didn't know how long it had been before she finally found herself again. She saw the back of her hands covered with fine, solid golden scales, and the strands of hair hanging on her shoulders were moist and heavy, as if they were made of real gold.

These changes gradually faded away, and Audrey soon returned to normal. However, when she looked in the mirror, she found that her green eyes seemed clear, but they contained a strange vortex with no bottom that could be seen, making it difficult for people to look away and easily indulge in it.

This was a sign that her spirituality was dissipating and had not yet been completely gathered... Audrey's brows slowly relaxed, and her smile gradually became clearer.

She looked at herself in the mirror, nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"Audrey, you are already Sequence 6!"

After her emotions calmed down, she carefully examined herself to confirm what extraordinary abilities she had acquired and what substantial changes had taken place.

After some busy work, Audrey initially understood the situation:

First, her physical fitness has been greatly enhanced. Both her strength and agility have exceeded the level of ordinary humans. She can also create a layer of "scales" on the surface of her skin to resist and reduce damage to a large extent. Second, her "psychological suggestion" has undergone a qualitative change and has become hypnosis in the non-combat field. As long as the target's attention is truly focused on something, Audrey can open the door to the other party's "mental body", directly modify consciousness, and affect the subconscious.

In this way, the target will follow her arrangements without realizing it and do things that go against their true will.

Of course, if Audrey's "arrangement" directly endangers the life of the hypnotized person and the things that he cares most about in his subconscious mind, the other party will strongly resist, causing the hypnosis to fail. In addition, if the target is mentally strong and has a firm mind, he can also resist hypnosis to a certain extent.

Third, "combat hypnosis". Audrey can forcefully hypnotize the enemy and make him do abnormal things, such as attacking his companions or avoiding her, the "hypnotist". However, this "hypnosis" can only last for a short time. The target will soon wake up and realize the problem. Moreover, this cannot directly endanger the opponent's life or make the enemy commit suicide.

Fourth, "psychological invisibility", using the grasp of the target's mental body to put oneself in a "blind spot of consciousness", thus achieving a quasi-invisibility effect where the other party cannot see or sense you even though you are right in front of them.

"That's amazing... The only regret is that I still don't have the Beyonder Ability to attack directly..." Audrey puffed up her cheeks slightly, trying to restrain her spirit and make her eyes look less intoxicating.

After initially eliminating the anomaly, she opened the door and let Susie in. With the help of the big golden retriever, she familiarized herself with her new extraordinary abilities.

Not long after, her personal maid Anne knocked on the door and came in with an invitation:

"Miss, the church will hold a charity party on Saturday night for a newly established scholarship fund for the poor. I hope you can participate."

Audrey did not answer directly, but asked:

"Did you invite my dad and mom too?"

"Yes, they also invited the Earl and Lady, and Lord Hibbert," Anne answered truthfully.

Audrey nodded and said with a smile:

“Tell the church I will attend.

"Also, find out the details of the charity fund so I can decide how much to donate."

…………

In the evening, Intis Serenzo restaurant.

“This place is so gorgeous, more gorgeous than many nobles’ living rooms and sitting rooms.” Fors looked around, as if collecting information.

Although she had participated in many literary salons hosted by aristocrats, she had always gone to their homes and never to such top restaurants.

Xio scratched his rough blond hair and said:

"This is the Intis style, which is quite different from ours. It looks gorgeous, but it has no substance."

“How can it be without substance? Look, those are famous oil paintings, famous sculptures…” Fors deliberately retorted.

During this process, she kept her voice low because they did not enter through the main door.

As they were talking, they found the small box that the butler Walter mentioned. Fors opened the door directly, pulled Xio in, and hid in the cupboard of the exclusive pantry, waiting for the arrival of their employer Dwayne Dantes and his guests who needed protection.

“How much gold pounds do you think the 3% of Coim Company’s shares are worth?” Fors asked casually out of boredom.

In the morning, she went into St. Samuel's Church with Hugh, pretending to pray but actually offering protection.

Xio hesitated and said:

"At least a few thousand pounds. I think the bishop attaches great importance to it."

“They are so rich that they donated thousands of pounds without hesitation. Why don’t they help poor people like us?” Fors said jokingly.

At this time, the door of the box opened, and Dwayne Dantès and Congressman Macht and his family walked in. They took their seats, and the corresponding waiters began to get busy.

Xio and Fors stopped talking. They listened to the idle chatter outside while paying attention to the situation around them, and occasionally puffed their noses at the aroma of food.

Suddenly, Xio frowned slightly, as if he sensed something, and then relaxed his brows as if nothing had happened.

"What's wrong?" Fors leaned close to her friend's ear and asked in a low voice.

Xio shook his head and said:

"Nothing, I was just too nervous and had an overreaction."

At this moment, Klein put down his knife and fork and glanced at the side of the chair as if nothing had happened.

In his eyes with psychic vision, a bright head with blond hair, red eyes and beautiful appearance emerged from the void, with a bulging letter in its mouth.

Faintly, Klein seemed to smell the scent of milk, wheat, and sea fish.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he quietly stretched out his left hand and took the letter, while Senator Macht, Lady Liana and Hazel who were sitting in the other three seats were unaware.

Just as Klein unnoticeably stuffed the letter into his pocket, the waiter walked out of the pantry and served new dishes to the four guests, two of which were fried mushrooms with butter.

Seeing this scene, Klein suddenly felt a little nauseous. His expression became slightly strange, and his left palm, which had not yet been pulled out of his pocket, trembled slightly.

ps: Update first and then modify.
