Chapter 144 Chapter 144
"System, why is the personality of the Formless Son nothing?"
The salvation system seemed to be down. Qingtong waited for a few seconds before hearing the system's response. He then screamed, "Ah - the host has drawn an SS rarity vest!!!"
Because he has been looking after other aliases for Qingtong, coordinating their work, and controlling the strange events around the world, even the salvation system has not checked which aliases the host has drawn, and the CG displayed when drawing is only visible to the host.
It’s just a weird vest, no need to think about it.
The result is a weird vest indeed, but this SS-level Invisible Son is simply a jackpot.
The slightly harsh voice made Qingtong's eyes twitch: "System?"
"Ah, the Invisible Son's vest does have no personality. This is due to the vest's own special fate." The Savior System said, "Does the host want to know about the Invisible Son's background?"
Qingtong shrugged, sat down on the sofa, and waited for today's story.
"He comes from the abyss, born in darkness, and is a collection of all negative substances in the world. He has no form, no soul, only the instinct to devour everything from the depths of mucus. He touches everything, imitates everything, and becomes everything. He flows out from the cracks in the stones in the cave, and everything except himself is his prey. Don't appear in front of him casually, just touch him lightly, and everything you have will belong to him, whether it is your form, memory, or soul, it will all be annihilated in the black quagmire."
Qingtong held his chin with his hand: "System, the story of this vest is a little different from the previous vests."
Savior System: "Yes, from the background story, the host knows that the Invisible Son actually has no rationality or thinking. He is like a single cell that acts on instinct, and only knows how to devour and grow. Therefore, he has no personality. In fact, this is very convenient for the host, because there is no threshold for acting. He is what the host wants him to be. And no matter how the host interprets, he can gain integration."
Qingtong hummed and lowered his head in thought.
The Savior System continued, "If the host can fully unlock this vest and strengthen it to the extreme, its strength can even be compared with that of an SSS-level vest! Although its rarity is only SS, it is the most cost-effective card in the card pool of this system. Even hero cards are not as useful as it."
Qingtong raised an eyebrow: "I am already tempted by what you said. What kind of ability does this vest have to be so powerful?"
"Just like what is described in the story, this vest can become anything." The Savior System said excitedly, "As long as it is something that has been observed, whether it is an object or a creature, it can change into it, and unless the level is too much higher than its own, even its abilities can be perfectly displayed. The host can try it for himself."
Qingtong opened the system interface and used role-playing.
Suddenly Qingtong's consciousness shifted to a pool of black mud. The feeling was very strange. Qingtong could clearly feel every piece of 'flesh' on his body, a soft mass of things flowing on the ground. It was the first time to control such a body and it was a little difficult to move, just like a child learning to walk for the first time. Qingtong was always fighting when trying to control his 'hands' and 'feet', and accidentally split his body into two halves. One part crawled to the middle of the living room, and the other part touched the foot of the sofa and could crawl upwards.
However, his will can sense both parts of his body and control their actions.
"System? This is so difficult to control!" Qingtong said in his heart.
Savior System: "Host, control it as you like. Don't think about how to make your body move. Just think about what you want to do. Just like when you pick up a cup of water, you can't think about which finger should move. As long as you have the intention to do something, your body will move on its own."
"Okay, I understand."
Qingtong thought in his mind, "Gather the whole body and go to the center of the living room," and then thought about taking action. As expected, just as the system said, the body automatically gathered into one, and according to Qingtong's idea of "wanting to see higher," the body stretched out and "stood up."
Speaking of which, his vision is also very strange. Like the Faceless Child, his field of vision is full and has no blind spots, but what he sees is a clear and colorful world.
What's the next step?
Qingtong thought of the transformation that the salvation system mentioned. Just a thought turned over in his mind, and the black body squirmed and changed, turning into the appearance of a human, wearing pajamas, with bandages tied around his arms. The details were so exquisite that even the dark red bloodstains under the bandages were visible.
Qingtong immediately went to look in the mirror. He stared at the face in the mirror for a long time, but could not see any difference between this face and his real self.
That’s right, Qingtong used the Invisible Son’s vest and transformed himself into his own appearance.
"Completely simulated." Qingtong exclaimed.
The voice was exactly the same as his own. If his original body had not been lying on the sofa sleeping, Qingtong would have even thought that he had returned to his original body.
So, how about trying something else?
The body began to stretch, and the blue pajamas also changed, becoming a white robe with delicate patterns. The Invisible Son, who had the appearance of a curse priest, opened his eyes, tapped the ground lightly with the long staff in his hand, and looked around with a pair of dark and deep eyes.
The divine eye ability of the curse priest was copied to this body 100%.
"That's simply cheating." The Invisible Son said, covering his face with one hand.
Salvation System: "Host, do you understand what SS level is?"
Invisible Son: "What about SSS level?"
The Savior System pondered for a moment: "This system does not recommend that the host touch SSS-level cards. Even if you draw one, please do not use it for the time being. Ah, the possibility of not being able to draw it is even greater, because the drop rate is really... Once the ability of SSS-level cards is not controlled well, it is possible to destroy the country."
Invisible Son: "Destroy a country? You are serious. I wonder if this level of weirdness will happen in the future."
The Savior System said in a very serious voice: "This system will not joke about this. SSS level can be said to be the pinnacle of the power of the monster. Host, don't worry too much. Not to mention the vest, no wild monster is SSS level when it first appears. It can only reach this level through growth. And there will definitely not be any monster that can grow to this level in obscurity under the nose of this system. When it reaches S level, the fluctuation of the monster power can't be hidden no matter how hard you try to cover it up."
"So it is possible that those below S can evade your detection, is that what you mean?" The Invisible Son is still in the appearance of a curse priest. He frowned slightly, with dissatisfaction in his voice.
The Savior System said excitedly: "This system is just being conservative. Nothing is absolute. Below S, this system can guarantee a 99.999% detection rate, but it does not rule out a one in ten million chance..."
The more I talk, the less confident I feel.
"Okay. For S-level, a few more vests can solve the problem." The Invisible Son changed his appearance again. Recalling the last appearance of the Invisible Son seen in the CG, he turned into a handsome man with brown skin and short hair.
This image is very handsome, but unfortunately it is a fantasy image from CG. It has no special abilities, only appearance.
"It would be convenient if I could use the Divine Eye with this appearance..." Before the Invisible Son could finish his words, the man's dark pupils became deeper, and everything he could see was broken down into information and flooded into his mind. The Invisible Son could use the Divine Eye when using this appearance.
"System???"
Savior System: "The most powerful ability of the Invisible Child is to change at will. It is not difficult to maintain the current appearance and only replace the eyes with the eyes of the Curse Priest. The SS-level vest is extremely powerful. Whether it can fully display its power depends on the host's ability."
"I see." The Invisible Son opened the map and checked the locations where the strange things appeared. "Actual combat brings experience. Just practice more and it will be fine."
Savior System: "I recommend the host to go to Mississippi, located in the south-central region of the Western Continent. The host has four permanent vests in China, plus the cursed priest who was just released, which makes five. However, there are only three vests left in the entire Western Continent, and they cannot take care of so many places. A B-level monster appeared there. Although it has not caused serious casualties, it will be difficult if it is not dealt with quickly and waits for it to grow to A-level."
"...People always have biases." The Invisible Son muttered softly.
But it is necessary to go there, just as the Savior System warned, we must not let the powerful monsters grow to a point where they are difficult to handle.
He stretched out his finger and tapped the map. When he was about to tap, he suddenly thought of something and asked the Savior System: "System, according to the story, the Formless Son has no form, so where did this image in the CG come from?"
This is what Qingtong just thought of.
Look at his appearance now. He is wearing a hooded cape, but the clothes under the cape are very cool. The top is buttonless and open to reveal a large area of chest and abdominal skin. The hem is tied in a belt with gold ornaments. He is wearing trousers underneath, but they are very loose and smooth. It feels like when you sit down and lift your legs, the trousers will slide to the base of your thighs.
More importantly, the man was not wearing shoes, but there was a golden ring on the ankle of his right foot, engraved with delicate patterns.
This identity is not simple no matter how you look at it. I am a little curious about the true identity of this man recorded by the Invisible Son, as well as his abilities.
It can't be an ordinary person.
"Oh, this is a hero from the world of the Invisible Son." The Savior System said in a relaxed voice, "Come to think of it, this man is actually also in the host's card pool, but it's a hero card with A rarity, and his skills are also very powerful. It's a pity that the host can't draw it." His tone was full of regret.
"...Eh? No, wait, is this man a hero?" The Invisible Son's eyes sparkled, "Then who is he——"
Before he could finish the rest of his words, his finger touched the teleport button and he disappeared.
