Chapter 22: 20 Spiritual Attributes!
Xia Ran didn't let his guard down, but continued to keep it for several minutes. It wasn't until he felt that his left arm was numb due to the lack of blood circulation, that he opened the personal information page again and took a look.
After confirming the basic facts that were a foregone conclusion, he slowly loosened the strap that bound his arm.
- "Parasitic Beast Enhancement (Partially Parasitic)"
There has been a noticeable change in the personal page, and there is one more item like this.
And what is very peculiar is that after habitually turning the page, he found that this item appeared on the skill page and the equipment page at the same time, and it was not a separate item.
The display on the skill page is the one above, but the display on the equipment page is-
"Parasitic Beast (Equipped)" ......
So, this is a type of ability that is judged to be both a special equipment and a special equipment? Xia Ran thought about it as she tried to move her freshman's left hand, feeling completely different......
But not the feeling of being full of power, as if a punch could break a wall, but a more subtle, ineffable contrast of change.
There was no swelling or pain, and it seemed that all the previous injuries had healed, but there was no sense of strength, but there was still a noticeable numbness. At first, he thought it was because of his own behavior, so the blood did not circulate.
But then I soon found out that the numbness was not a paralyzing sensation caused by poor blood circulation, but it was indescribable, and if I had to say it, I was not sensitive enough.
He tried to swing his left arm vigorously and tried to move, and after a few tests, he could be sure that his left hand's speed response had not actually been weakened or decreased, and that it was still a solid 12 agility as before.
It's just that it's not sensitive enough in terms of feeling, and it seems to have been weakened a lot.
Obviously, you can move your left hand with a single thought and make all kinds of actions you want to do, but the signals of touch and sensation will always be transmitted to the brain after a beat, as if it were a prosthetic hand.
- But strictly speaking, it's a prosthetic hand now.
“……”
“……”
Stared at his left hand for a long time, but didn't find any movement in it, let alone deformation and stretching, Xia Ran then remembered that it might be that the parasitic beasts needed to sleep for a while first.
It's not too long, Izumi Shinichi seems to have been parasitized in the early morning of the first day, and it was only in the evening of the second day that his right hand woke up for the first time, and he said the first hello to him on the journey of symbiosis.
- But that's fine, after all, it takes some time to get used to it and do some preparation......
I couldn't tell what kind of mood he was in at the moment, Xia Ran could only try to calm down and force himself to seriously think about what he should do next, although it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
But he couldn't sleep yet, and he probably stayed up late once rarely...... However, now that the physical attributes and spiritual attributes have returned to the level of normal people, it is not a big problem.
……
……
Early the next morning.
Izumi Shinichi was still eating breakfast a little sleepy-eyed, and yawned or something, today is the weekend, he doesn't have to go to school, and his parents are traveling, no one will care how long he sleeps.
But he really couldn't sleep, so he got up early, and the emptiness of the house made him very unaccustomed, and he always panicked inexplicably. Sometimes the more I think about it, the more scared I become, for fear that my parents will encounter something terrible outside.
Although Ah You told him that in terms of probability, the probability of encountering parasitic beasts in the city is much higher than that in remote villages, and parasitic beasts will consciously choose lone prey and carefully prevent accidents.
If you travel in a group of two or more people, there is a very small chance that you will be attacked.
But it's only theoretical, everyone knows how small the probability of being hit by a car is when you go out, but if your parents go out and leave home and don't come back for a long time, most people still can't help but think crankily and worry inexplicably, right?
What's more, he knew about the parasitic beast, but he couldn't say it easily, and even doubted that he was the only person in this world who knew the truth.
Therefore, the probability theory has no way to convince Izumi Shinichi that it is good enough that he does not suffer from persecution paranoia in this situation, and ordinary people are afraid that they are really crazy, and maybe even their parents and relatives will suspect that they are monsters in human skin.
Relying on the homology sensing of his right hand, Izumi Shinichi can at least distinguish the wavelength of a human from a parasitic beast, and he will not fall into such a suspicious situation, because he can clearly distinguish who is a real person and who is a parasitic beast.
However, once his parents left the house and were not within his reach, he couldn't help but start to fall into a state of doubt, anxiety, and anxiety.
Again, the probability theory has no way to convince Izumi Shinichi, he always feels that there are parasitic beasts everywhere outside, and it is really a very dangerous thing for his parents to run around the streets......
But now there is no way, he doesn't know where his parents went, he can only wait for the information in fear, and secretly make up his mind that he won't let the two go out next time.
It is best not to let parents go out for long periods of time until the problem of parasitic beasts is solved by the government.
Jingle Bell –
Izumi Xinyi, who was thinking about when the disaster of the parasitic beast would be solved, whether the country had already taken action, was stunned for a moment, and quickly picked up the mobile phone next to him, and felt his heavy mood relieved for a moment.
The two finally remembered his son and knew that they had made a phone call to report that they were safe.
"Hey!"
Izumi Shinichi pressed the answer button, exhaled a long breath, and pondered how to open his mouth to euphemistically urge the two to come back.
However, as the voice on the other side of the phone rang, his expression changed rapidly, becoming frozen and shocked, and his pupils instantly shrank to the tip of a needle, almost directly losing the ability to think.
It wasn't until a busy sound came from the other side of the phone that he woke up suddenly.
……
……
Time: 9 p.m. sharp.
Location: Still the same B&B.
In a room on the second floor with a good view, Xia Ran was sitting at a low table in the center of the room, talking to someone.
"Hello? …… Well, I see...... Don't come here, in case your son is really parasitized, believe me, you won't want to see that......"
He held the mobile phone in his left hand and kept the call, while his right hand was writing and drawing on a small notebook on the table, which was a very normal picture and should not have any problems.
But what is chilling is that although his hands are still operating normally, his left hand has "split" into another arm from ...... elbow joint.
And as if it had eaten the power of rubber fruit, the split arm was obviously stretched much longer, as if it had no bones. It was pressing the other mobile phone that Xia Ran had prepared earlier, as if it was browsing the web or something.
Hanging up the phone, Xia Ran glanced at his alienated left hand, and the corners of his eyes still twitched slightly. Thankfully, at least on that arm, there is no more skin cracked and a few eyeballs are not as curious.
Because Xia Ran thinks that since parasitic beasts can be transformed at will, it is simply cell-level manipulation, so there should be no need to stick to the expression of human body structure.
After all, they can even stretch like rubber, and they can change into bone blades as quickly as steel...... It's a creature that transcends common sense, so why do you have to simulate a human eye to be able to see?
It can only be said that it can, but it is not absolutely necessary.
This is not Xia Ran's own assumption, because Izumi Shinichi's right hand has shown such a nature-
During the class, Izumi Shinichi, who was parasitic on the first day, was sleeping, and his right hand was operating the mobile phone under the table to learn knowledge, and it was not deformed, it was the appearance of the original right hand, and there was no need to grow eyeballs.
This made Xia Ran feel at least not so curious, and although he couldn't adapt to it for a while and even felt a little repulsed psychologically, the indescribable sense of security he felt because he had mastered the power was truly overwhelming.
In any case, it is undeniable that since the evening, after seeing the "left hand" awaken and behave as expected, his whole person has relaxed from the bottom of his heart, and he is no longer in a state of calm and calm as before, but in fact he is anxious in his heart.
On the surface, he is as stable as an old dog, but in fact he is panicked, this is how he really felt before. Every time I faced the parasitic beast, I was like this, for fear that if an accident happened, my head would be cut off by the other party's lightning speed.
But now, he really let his tense nerves relax, and he can finally take a breath.
If he continued like this, he doubted that he would collapse because his nerves were too tense and the pressure was too great...... In the final analysis, although his experience is special and different from ordinary people, he is really not a complete "warrior".
Xia Ran's left hand has just woken up now, and he can't even speak completely, and he still needs to learn for a while.
But it's expected to be soon, about two days...... Because parasitic beasts seem to have knowledge of the language based on the host's own knowledge reserves, they can quickly become proficient in using this knowledge within a few days.
Then, using this as a foundation, they demonstrate an extremely strong learning ability......
Considering their own ability values such as attack and defense speed, Xia Ran didn't want to think about how much their intelligence attributes would be while their strength sensitivity was terrifyingly high......
Thankfully, of course, their mental side seems to be a weakness.
Thinking so, he subconsciously opened the personal information page, and looked at the basic attribute value that had changed again-
"Strength: 4"
Dexterity: 12
[Constitution: 6]
"Intelligence: 7"
"Spirit: 20"
"Perception: 7"
