After "observing" Fan Jiading's dream for a while, Xia Libing began to appear in his dreams, exploring and guiding Fan Jiading's subconscious.

However, what made Xiang Kun feel a little funny was that Xia Libing's figure in his dream was the same as the first time he appeared in Miqiao's "Dream within a Dream" - a paper man with a panda expression.

The specific operations were handed over to Lao Xia, and he mainly provided the ability support for Lao Xia's dream editing.

Under the guidance of Lao Xia, Fan Jiading showed the deep subconscious real memories in his dreams little by little, and showed them in front of Xiang Kun and Lao Xia in the form of pictures.

After learning about the real process and subsequent experience of Fan Jiading being parasitized by the "mutant parasite" through those memory pictures, just like what he did in the "dream within a dream" of the "vampire patient" before, Xia Libing guided his subconscious in the dream and forgot those real memory pictures.

If it is not treated, if Fan Jiading wakes up and can remember the real memory that was deeply guided by Lao Xia in the "dream within a dream", he found that he was parasitized in his body in a very direct way by a worm in front of him, and when he took out the crystal energy from the chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry that he killed before was actually blood, he would have a nervous breakdown and go completely crazy.

After breaking away from the dream, Xiang Kun communicated with Xia Libing, who had woken up, on WeChat, and discussed the observation and capture strategy of the "mutant parasite".

Xiang Kun is going to face the host directly tonight and take out the "mutant parasite".

So he took off his coat and the T-shirt inside, covered his face with the T-shirt, then put on his coat, climbed in directly through the window on the side of the corridor, and touched the door of the suite rented by Fan Jiading on the third floor.

Although the windows were not closed tightly when Fan Jiading slept at night, Xiang Kun had also used this to get the black circle graffiti used to guide dreams into the room, but this small building had protective railings both the windows and the balcony, so he couldn't go directly into it.

Standing at the door of Fan Jiading's rented house, Xiang Kun shoved five super-joint coins through the crack of the door, and then controlled the coins to cling to the doorknob inside, trying to open the door.

However, the way he controls the super-coin is to use the super-coin to influence the surrounding magnetic field to establish a magnetic orbit to guide the direction of movement, so the movement of the coin is more accurately controlled, but this way of climbing and prying other items is more difficult, and he has not practiced it before.

So the five coins kept clashing against the doorknob across the door, and it took a few moments to open the door.

After the door opened, Xiang Kun knew through the sound that Fan Jiading had woken up, noticed the movement in the living room, and was getting up and walking.

However, Xiang Kun was not worried, because he originally came in to wake up Fan Jiading.

Fan Jiading, who walked to the door of the bedroom, took advantage of the light leaking from the bedroom to look at the tall man who suddenly appeared in the living room, wearing a peaked hat and covering his face, but he did not have a panicked expression, but laughed:

"Brother, it's really unfortunate that you burglary came to my place. ”

Fan Jiading's reaction was within Xiang Kun's expectations.

In fact, it is easy to understand that the current Fan Jiading, who thinks that he has been strengthened by the "system", has a very blind confidence in his own combat effectiveness, and is basically a mental state of "I can fight ten".

To be honest, if Xiang Kun found a thief sneaking in at home in the middle of the night, it is estimated that he would be curious, and even feel interesting and funny. Maybe I'll chat with the thief first, and then pack it up and send it to Officer Chen.

However, Xiang Kun's next sentence made Fan Jiading's expression change in an instant.

"Are you the Chosen One?" asked Xiang Kun in a cold tone.

Fan Jiading frowned, and subconsciously made a defensive gesture: "You...... How do you know?"

Immediately, he seemed to understand something, and said in surprise: "You are also the Chosen One?"

Xiang Kun said directly: "What's so strange about having other Heavenly Chosen One, you don't think that you are the only one who has the 'Heavenly Selection System'? ”

"Huh?!" Fan Jiading's expression was a little confused, his eyes were straight, and he was stunned for a while, as if his brain was down.

Xiang Kun continued: "The 'Heavenly Chosen System' stipulates that the Chosen One can challenge other Heavenly Chosen One, and the winning side can obtain the crystal energy of the losing side, you won't even know this, right?"

"Right...... The challenge system is a challenge system, there should be other chosen ones, it's very reasonable......" Fan Jiading seemed to suddenly realize, and muttered to himself.

Xiang Kun had been observing Fan Jiading's expression and body changes, and judged that he had already perfected the "system setting" according to his own words, and knew that his and Lao Xia's previous speculation on the impact of parasites on the host was correct.

The "mutant parasite" has no way to determine the specific hallucinations produced by the host, but can only give the host a driving force and a final action goal in some way, as for how to imagine the process, how to make the host more at ease and have a stronger subjective initiative to execute, it all depends on the host's own imagination.

According to the situation of the "vampire patient", Xiang Kun knows that the influence of the "mutant parasite" on the host's cognition will persist even after it leaves the host.

But there is a way to interfere with this effect, especially after the "mutant parasite" has detached from the host.

Xiang Kun and Lao Xia successfully passed the deep hypnosis of "dream within a dream" to make the "vampire patient" feel that he was "not qualified enough" to become a "blood clan" and not "qualified" to drink blood, so he no longer insisted on eating red food, but ate various vegetables every day, and exercised desperately, wanting to regain his "qualifications".

Xiang Kun believes that when he directly throws a new "setting" that is irrational but in line with his hallucinatory system, Fan Jiading's instinct will automatically "rationalize" it—because otherwise, his entire hallucinatory system may collapse.

Of course, the biggest variable is the "mutant parasite" that is still in Fan Jiading's body at this time, which cannot determine the specific hallucinations of the host, but it may issue new instructions to make the host have new behavior patterns, such as extremely aggressive or self-destructive, and directly believes that Xiang Kun does not exist or is a "monster" that the "system" wants to destroy.

However, judging from Fan Jiading's reaction, the "mutant parasite" did not have any immediate effect.

After entering the door, Xiang Kun kept switching the visual mode, and from time to time observed the "mutant parasite" in Fan Jiading's body through the infrared thermal imaging visual mode, and he found that after Fan Jiading woke up, the blue spot representing the parasite suddenly shrank a lot, as if he was hiding his body and wanted to hide something.

Xiang Kun immediately speculated that this was the "mutant parasite" who realized the existence of his "other mutant creatures" and was scared?

But if this is the case, some of the previous speculations about the perception ability of "mutant parasites" will have to be changed.

While thinking about Xiang Kun, Fan Jiading had also completely "convinced" himself, accepted his statement, slowly walked to the living room, turned on the light, and said: "According to the challenge setting of the Heavenly Selection System, the challenger can only challenge the Chosen One who has obtained a higher total mission points than himself, that is to say...... You get lower mission points than me, and I'm curious, what gave you the courage and confidence to come to my house in the middle of the night and challenge me?...... You're putting all your points on combat-related abilities?"

"You can try ......"

Before Xiang Kun finished speaking, Fan Jiading's figure had already rushed up and smashed his fist.

Obviously, in his cognition, the challenge of the Heavenly Selection System does not need to follow the rules of the ring, and there is no requirement to shout one, two, three and start again.

It can be seen that Fan Jiading's explosiveness is very strong, but the core muscle groups are actually not very stable, and when he swings his fists, he can't borrow too much strength from his lower limbs.

His movement speed is faster than that of ordinary people, but in fact, it is not as clear as a few athletes with excellent physical fitness, and in the eyes of Xiang Kun, who has super dynamic vision, it is as clear as slow motion.

However, Xiang Kun did not dodge, nor did he block with his backhand so as not to hurt the opponent, but accurately pinched the opponent's right fist, took it back, slowed down his strength, and then directly used his abdomen to catch the opponent's left fist.

Feeling that the fist was like smashing into a whole piece of hardened rubber, and his wrist hurt, Fan Jiading raised his head in amazement, looked at Xiang Kun's eyes, and exclaimed, "You added all the points to the defense?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person had already been kicked out directly by Xiang Kun, his back hit the wall, and after making a muffled sound, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

Of course, this kick to Kun also collected force, more of a push, and did not cause him serious damage, but he was out of breath for a while.

In this short fight just now, Xiang Kun has accurately judged Fan Jiading's current physical fitness.

Fan Jiading's improvement in muscle strength and explosiveness is actually far less than he subconsciously thinks he is, but it has improved a lot compared to his own before, but it is even worse than ordinary athletes with strong physical fitness.

The so-called "Hercules" ability was exchanged for "lv.3", and what he got was more of a psychological enhancement, but in fact, the parasite had a very limited modification of his body.

This is also consistent with the judgment he and Lao Xia got from the "vampire patient".

Of course, these transformations are different from the transformation of ordinary people through training and diet, and at the root, they are indeed slightly different from ordinary humans, which is also the reason why Xiang Kun's cognitive information perceived in the "supersensory state" is abnormal.

Xiang Kun took advantage of Fan Jiading's lying on the ground before he could recover his strength, walked to his bedroom, and pulled out a folding knife from a backpack - this is what he saw when he climbed to the window before.

Back in the living room, Xiang Kun controlled Fan Jiading with his knees, lifted the hem of his clothes, quickly cut a small cut in his waist with a folding knife, and then immediately threw the knife, put two fingers into the wound, and accurately pinched a small insect the size of a broad bean.

Although trapped in flesh and blood, through the infrared thermal imaging visual mode, Xiang Kun still found that the form of this "mutant parasite" was slightly different from what he saw in the deep real memory picture of the "vampire patient" being guided by Lao Xia.

Around its body, there are countless tentacles thinner than a hair that extend into Fan Jiading's body.

Therefore, after Xiang Kun pinched it, he did not immediately pull it out as originally planned, but waited for a moment, and only after those tiny tentacles retracted into its body did he pinch it out of Fan Jiading's wound.

The whole process is actually very fast, from the knife to the removal of the "mutant parasite", it is less than three seconds in total, and the process of waiting for the parasite to retract its tentacles is also counted in the slight pause.

Because the knife was too fast, Fan Jiading, who had just been a little dizzy, didn't react for a while, and when he opened his mouth to scream, Xiang Kun had already taken out the worm.

"Shut up!" Xiang Kun scolded in a low voice, then brought the insect in his hand to Fan Jiading and asked, "Do you know what this is?"

Fan Jiading looked at the blood-stained fusiform insect that seemed to be dead and motionless, stunned for a moment, his expression became decayed, and he said with a sad face: "It's my 'crystal energy', you took out my 'crystal energy'......"

Xiang Kun nodded, and sure enough, as he had expected, even if the "mutant parasite" was removed, its psychological impact on the host would still persist.

This kind of picture that is unacceptable to the host's original cognition will still automatically "make up" into a picture that can be integrated into the illusion system.

In the setting that Fan Jiading understands, the monsters he completes the "system" characters kill, and the "crystal energy" obtained can be exchanged for system points, and the abilities he redeems from the system are also stored in his own "crystal energy".

In other words, now the abilities he gained from the "system" have been "poached" by Xiang Kun.

Xiang Kun got up and looked down at Fan Jiading, who was like a wilted eggplant on the ground: "This is the reward for my successful challenge, you are no longer qualified to perform the 'mission', so let's start practicing again! ”

Although these words sound very naïve and secondary, they are very reasonable to Fan Jiading's ears.

He gritted his teeth to endure the pain of the hot wound on his waist, and said hatefully: "You at least tell me your name, how will I find you in the future?"

Xiang Kun shook his head: "The 'system' will tell you." ”

The reason why he went to such great lengths to "act" with Fan Jiading was not to tease this poor "mutant parasite" host, but to maximize his return to ordinary life with a smaller impact, which is also the "treatment" of psychiatrist Xia Libing.

Through the memory regression in the "dream within a dream" just now, Xiang Kun and Lao Xia both knew that Fan Jiading, like the "vampire patient", had not really hurt others, his life could still be saved, and there was a chance to get back on track.

Whether it is the "vampire patient" who attempted to commit a crime, the male deceased in Zihuan Mountain, or the passerby who absconded to Yangcheng after killing people and finally fell to his death, they are actually basically victims, if they are not affected by the parasitism of "mutant parasites", they will most likely not do those things, and they will have a normal life.

For the "mutant parasites", Xiang Kun can treat them as living samples of the "mutant creatures" he has studied, but those hosts are all poor victims, and they can save one by one.

Xiang Kun walked to the door with the "mutant parasite" that didn't react at all, turned around and said to Fan Jiading:

"What should I say about going to the hospital to take care of the wound myself, you know?"

He was very measured, and the degree of incision was not deep, although it seemed to bleed a lot, but most of it was brought out by "mutant parasites".

After being transformed by the "mutant parasite", Fan Jiading's body repair ability is much better than his strength, speed, and reaction, and he went to the hospital to treat a wound a little, and it is estimated that he will not even leave a scar when he looks back, just like the "vampire patient".

Of course, according to Xiang Kun's speculation, this improvement in repair ability is likely to bring some not very good side effects. "Mutant parasites" only use the host as a vehicle, and do not really think about the overall survival of the host.

Hearing Xiang Kun's words, Fan Jiading raised his head and glanced at him hatefully: "Nonsense, revealing the 'Heavenly Selection System' to ordinary people is to be wiped out by the system, and I am not stupid." ”

Defeated by Xiang Kun and lost his "crystal energy", although Fan Jiading was depressed and depressed, he was honestly convinced, and even began to reflect on the way he exchanged his ability, whether it was not quite right.

"Hey!" Seeing Xiang Kun open the door to leave, Fan Jiading couldn't help but stop him.

"What I lost, one day, I will definitely get it back with my own hands!"

Xiang Kun responded with a smile and then closed the door and left.

Fan Jiading, who was still lying on the ground and covering the wound on his back with one hand, knocked his forehead on the floor, and suddenly regretted saying what he said just now, he thought that this could give him Mingzhi, and he would be very enthusiastic, but after saying it, he found that he ......

It's embarrassing!
