Chapter 271 Chapter 271
The system collects aliases, and never requires the death of the source of the alias. It is enough to collect the information of the source. For humans, it is genes, and for monsters, it is weird power.
Every weird power is unique, just like millions of different human fingerprints.
Qingtong had long known the rules for collecting vests from the salvation system. He also knew that among the vests he used, the origin of one of them must be still alive somewhere.
For example, the mango vest he is using now, as an SSS-level monster, is difficult to destroy.
But he never expected that one day he would meet the origins of these vests.
There are so many parallel worlds, and each destroyed world has tens of millions of weird beings. The Savior System has experienced so many hosts, but it has not been able to face all the weirdnesses brought by successive hosts, and only a few have been included.
Qingtong only drew these few aliases, which is just a drop in the ocean compared to the total number of weird ones.
However, fate is so strange that it really happened.
"Mirror Devil." Mang Tao said the other person's name.
The automatic translation function of the salvation system had not yet been turned off. The strange man kneeling on the ground understood. He looked at Mang Tao and smiled slightly: "It is a great honor for you to know my name."
In the eyes of the mirror devil, there were two monsters standing in front of him, one SSS level and one S level.
But the strange man was not afraid, and even raised his mouth, with a smile that was almost crazy: "You want to eat me? Unfortunately, my strength is only one hundredth of what it is. Compared to me, the one next to you looks more delicious. If I were you, I would swallow him up right now, from head to toe, without leaving anything."
Qin Xiaocao looked at the mirror devil coldly.
Seeing that the two strange faces in front of him did not waver, the mirror devil's crazy smile faded a little, and there seemed to be some doubt in his eyes.
"Strange, you don't look that weird." The Mirror Devil lowered his mouth corners, and his eyes scanned the two people's faces, estimating the difference in strength between the two parties and guessing the relationship between them.
"Hypocritical, insidious, and cunning." Mang Tao read out the character traits of the Mirror Devil on the vest one by one, "Indeed."
What I said just now was provocative. Monsters are different from humans. Monsters are in a relationship of the survival of the fittest, devouring each other. It is impossible for them to get along in a friendly way. If you see two monsters standing together one day, it means that they are superiors and subordinates. The superior regards the subordinate as reserve food and tools, and will eat him one day when he runs out of food. The subordinate regards the superior as an enemy and prey, and always wants to wait for an opportunity to kill him.
If there were two real monsters in front of the mirror devil, what he said before would make the superior have murderous intentions towards the subordinate, and the subordinate would also secretly be wary of the superior.
Unfortunately, it is not the case. The two strange souls in front of me come from the same person.
Anyone close to you may betray you, but you won't.
"Ha... I don't understand." The Mirror Devil tilted his head slightly, and he squinted his eyes and smiled, but the malice in his eyes and the stiff corners of his mouth made people feel uneasy.
Mang Tao didn't look at him again and asked the system: "If 'I' eat him, will I gain his ability?"
"This..." The Savior System was not sure of the answer. "If it is a real monster, it has a chance to gain the other powerful monster's ability by devouring it. But the vest used by the host was created by this system... Theoretically, it is possible... But this system has not tried it..."
"Then it's useless." Mang Tao stretched out his hand, which turned into a branch from his wrist and stretched towards the mirror devil kneeling on the ground.
"But! If it is the host's mirror devil vest, it may have a miraculous effect!" The salvation system changed the subject, "Why not let Bai Yixin eat it and try it?"
Mang Tao raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"
"The host's vest skills are rather rigid. This system has summarized the abilities of the origin by referring to the game skills. If the entire origin is swallowed, perhaps it can be used freely like a real weird." The salvation system said hurriedly, "Even if the second form has not been unlocked yet, it will definitely be unlocked immediately, and all aspects of the ability value will be maxed out. It is not impossible to even go one step further."
"What about the soul? Will it be affected?"
"No." The salvation system said, "The host's soul fragments are still the same size as before, and their personalities may be a little weirder... But it doesn't matter, this system believes that the host can control them!"
Mango: ...
I'm worried when you say that.
Looking at the real mirror devil with an evil smile on his face, and recalling Bai Yixin who didn't want to work and was a bit lazy, he thought that even if he swallowed the origin, there would probably be no problem... right?
Take a chance, if things get out of control, the vest can always be taken back.
"Call Bai Yixin now." Mang Tao's hands returned to their original shape and he spoke.
Salvation System: “Okay!”
Bai Yixin arrived very quickly. When he showed up, he had changed his clothes into an older travel suit and was carrying a huge bag. However, he still had the demeanor of a gentleman, looking like a nobleman who had a sudden urge to see the world.
He had already known the situation when he arrived, so he was not surprised to see the Mirror Devil kneeling on the ground. Instead, seeing Qin Xiaocao and Mang Tao standing together made him speak in a somewhat weird tone compared to the existence of the Origin.
"I'm so free. I've been given a lot of work to do, running from the west to the east, from the far south to the far north. But some people, relying on their childish looks, go out for the holidays."
Qin Xiaocao was not the least bit dissatisfied with being accused. Instead, she was a little proud. She raised her chin and said, "If you have the ability, you can also change into the appearance of a child."
Bai Yixin sneered.
The sealed Mirror Devil kneeling on the ground was dumbfounded. Suddenly, a monster exactly like himself appeared in front of him. Not only was the appearance similar, but the familiar weird power was exactly the same as his own.
It's just a little weaker, three points weaker than its strongest period.
Just like himself when he first crossed the world wall.
It's just...he never wears such tacky clothes!
An exquisite suit, a gentleman's attire, a cane, and not a speck of dust on his body, is the dress style that the Mirror Devil has always pursued.
This is related to his experience before he became a weirdo. He was often despised for his humble origins. The stronger he became, the more he wanted to highlight his nobility.
"Fake..." The Mirror Devil gritted his teeth, "You can't even pretend to be 30% like me."
"So what if it doesn't look like me." Bai Yixin put the bag on the ground with a thud. "After I devour you, there will only be one mirror devil in all the worlds, and there will only be one 'Bai Yixin', and that's me."
The mirror devil glared at him fiercely.
Bai Yixin, this was the name he once hated the most. After becoming a monster, he gave up everything he once had and lived as a mirror devil for who knows how many years.
"Ha." The Mirror Devil laughed sarcastically.
It's ridiculous that counterfeits will survive using this name in the future.

A small city in Russia.
On a bench by the roadside, the paper man was holding a mobile phone in his hand, flipping through the map of the strange area shown in the weird live broadcast, and then opened the Internet to read the headlines.
And under his feet, there was a man, who was the owner of the cell phone.
"This is so strange. The strange area clearly appeared and it was shown on the map, but there was no live broadcast." The paper man said to himself.
The salvation system heard it, but it said nothing.
"It was not open before, but rarely." Unless there was some special reason, like the last time Mangtao and Tong went to solve the weird things in the primitive tribe's sacrifice, they were worried that it would have a bad impact on the network, so they didn't even mark the weird things on the map.
Anyway, no one cares about the island where the primitive tribe is located, and people living on the island don’t use mobile phones.
But it is a bit strange that no one paid attention to this strange area.
And it's also very strange to appear in mid-air. If the monsters came from this world, they would be generated on the surface, because humans living on land are their hunting targets. What could be in the sky? In Ross, there are only a few birds when it's cold.
Unless they come from another world.
"The outside world is a strange place, right?" said the paper man.
The salvation system wanted to curl itself up into a ball.
"This is well worth the trip for our little leader." The paper man stood up and jumped over the fallen man. The man lying on the ground groaned and didn't dare to say a word until the cell phone was thrown on his head.
Then the paper man disappeared, and a passerby reminded him that the paper man was gone. Only then did the man get up from the ground and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Hey, man, where did you get the paper man?" asked a passerby.
The man pouted: "I didn't mess with him. His face was so white and his smile was so weird. I knew who he was at first glance. I didn't have time to hide."
Who would have thought that the paper man would come straight towards him and reach out for the phone. The man hesitated for just a second before he was knocked down with a bang and used as a stepping stone for a long time.
What an unprovoked disaster.
As for how he encountered it, the man felt even more aggrieved when asked. He was just walking on the road and suddenly a paper man appeared out of thin air in front of him, and he didn't even have time to dodge.
Fortunately, the paper man didn't hit him hard, so apart from feeling a little cold lying on the ground, he was fine.
"Let's go have a drink." The passerby patted his shoulder comfortingly, "Come on, I'll treat you."
Russians are bold and unrestrained. When they encounter troubles, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a bottle of vodka. If that doesn't work, then two bottles will do.
On the other side, the paper man who was sent away through the system channel looked at the deserted snowy land around him in a daze.
"Where is this?" The paper man looked around. "It's not Kutsk."
"This... the strange area in Kuzk City has already been resolved by the main body, so..." the salvation system said stutteringly.
Bai Yixin has already gone over there and is devouring the origin. The salvation system doesn't think it is a good idea to let the paper man go at this time.
"You are more loyal to the original body than I thought." The paper man said, "Okay, I understand. I will not be teleported to Kutsk City."
"real?"
"Well, so at least you should tell me where I am." The paper man asked, "You can't let me stay in this place forever?"
"Oh, go west from here and you'll find Todeschi."
"Really? Then go east and you'll reach the city of Kutsk."
“…Huh?”
Didn’t you say you weren’t going?
"I won't teleport anymore," said the paper figurine. "I'll walk there."
He had come all the way to Ross Country, originally just hoping to try his luck, but the system's repeated obstructions only made the paper man more determined.
Don't want him to find his true self? Then he has to find it.
