Chapter 171: Developing New Abilities (2-in-1 Chapter Asking for a Monthly Pass)
in the mental space.
Irin routinely floats in the dark void.
For this state of being separated from the body and only the spirit is eternal, Irin's also accustomed to it.
He didn't waste any time, and directly pulled the vast module in front of him.
Zoom.
Shrink into a mini state.
Irin's mind moved.
All the balls that could fit into the module flickered and floated around Irin like light bulbs.
"Batmobile...... Unstable explosives ......"
Currently, there are two skill trees that are lit up in the mod.
One of them, the only one that is lonely, [Shadowy], has accompanied Irin along the way.
On the second skill tree, they are [Calamity] and [Bloodthirsty Calamity].
The third, the first one flickered on and off like a breathing lamp, like waiting for Irin to fill the broken ball with something.
Well.
This is a reserved spot for motorcycles, so don't bother with it for now.
In the "Haiting City Zhang Rejuvenation Incident", although Yi Rin easily harvested a lot of heads, plus the settlement of the final realistic mission obtained 20,000 death points, the death points were harvested richly, but the chaos value was ...... But it's hard to say.
At the beginning, this chaos value may have been a huge amount of money, but now that the mods are more and more abundant, the required chaos value has also increased, and the chaos value obtained in Haiting City is just a drizzle.
"The current chaos value is more than 34,000 ......"
Irin muttered to himself.
"It's definitely not enough to put a motorcycle in it......"
Irin grabbed a ball of light.
【Unstable Explosives】
As soon as Irin's grasp of this ball of light, under the matching mechanism that comes with the "mod", the corresponding skill ball has flickered slightly, ready to move.
"The next skill point in 'Bloodthirsty Scourge'?"
Irin was a little surprised.
This skill tree, after upgrading, the skill name will inexplicably become "disaster system", which makes Irin always feel unlucky.
But try and you won't get pregnant.
Irin tries to use [Unstable Explosives] to light up the third skill point of the "Calamity" skill tree.
……
[This operation costs 20,000 chaos value.] 】
【YES/NO? 】
“……”
Irin stared at the two buttons in front of her.
I pondered for a long time.
In this space, the concept of time is blurred.
Irin couldn't tell how long he had been thinking about it.
It seemed like it was just a moment, and it seemed like a long time had passed.
Yi Rin slowly pressed "NO".
I can't afford it, I can't afford it.
"Is it true that the consumption of chaos points will increase more and more...... Then you can't just fill it with skills. Otherwise, in the end, it will be a bottomless pit of dissatisfaction. ”
Irin sighed.
It is impossible to gain a large amount of chaos in a short period of time in the real world until order has completely collapsed.
Unless...... Irin was desperate to brush up on the score.
Just like the future "Knights of the Apocalypse".
Although this skill should have a surprising change after being upgraded, if Irin is not mistaken, there will definitely be a lot of restrictions along with the surprise.
After the A-rank skill fills the vacancy of the module, it will add side effects such as "weak state" like [Bloodthirsty Calamity], and Irin's is not sure.
If there is another hole card skill similar to [Bloodthirsty Calamity], which cannot be used until the last moment, it will not be of much help to the normal output mode.
Moreover, what Irin wants to upgrade more than [Unstable Explosives] is [Batmobile].
"Forget it, I don't know what kind of mode the next World Trial will be, and it's not too late to level up when the time comes."
As the consumption of chaos points became more and more stretched, Irin could only become more and more cautious in upgrading his skills.
Because, once upgraded, there is no way to go back, and if it becomes another skill that is not easy to use, Yi Rin can only carry it all silently with tears in his eyes.
Irin quickly withdrew from the mod space.
Just for a while.
Irin's psionic energy has already been depleted by a fraction.
It's no wonder that except for the apostles on the spiritual side, the strength and agility side are mainly based on hand-to-hand combat, supplemented by skills, after all, the spiritual attributes are too low, and the upper limit of psionic value is too low, and it is impossible to squander psionic value like Irin at all.
Whether it is the consumption of various skills or the consumption of spiritual weapons, the average apostle outside the spirit side is really a little unaffordable.
While Mo Mengmeng was still busy.
Irin quickly walked out of the chamber.
Half an hour later.
Irin returned with a whole bunch of messes.
In Irin's hands, there are cups, coins, and spoons...... Anyway, Irin's got a few random things from Molly's house that didn't seem to be of much use.
Bang.
Call.
Boom!
PIA。
The researchers passing by thought it was very strange.
This secret room, which was ordered to die by Molly not long ago, must not be entered by anyone but herself.
There is also no access to view related monitoring.
It's a mysterious secret room.
So mysterious.
Indescribable.
Indescribable.
No peeps.
Ahem.
But there are still quite a few researchers, and every time they pass by, they hear a little strange sound coming from this mysterious little room from time to time.
Sometimes it looks like an explosion, sometimes it sounds like the human body emits some kind of exhaust gas, and sometimes it looks like it's slapping something...... In short, a room that should not allow anyone to enter, but all kinds of strange noises came out...... This is enough to arouse anyone's curiosity.
What's more, researchers are inherently curious creatures.
Well, my heart is a little itchy.
But no matter who it is, after all, working here and receiving a salary here, everyone knows Molly's temper...... and the temper of her legendary grandfather.
So there is no one who allows sensibility to defeat reason, so he can only suppress his exuberant curiosity and pass by this mysterious room.
Suddenly.
A man opened the door with a blank face and walked out.
“!”
……
……
Han Bingbing and a group of other experts were discussing fiercely in the room.
Ling Yiyi sat outside the examination room with a quiet expression, and suddenly, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly without a trace, and no one noticed it.
Molly was next to Ling Yiyi, squinting her eyes, carefully identifying the DNA fragments extracted from Ling Yiyi's body, and analyzing whether there were congenital defects in the DNA that could cause optic nerve atrophy.
Analytical alignment is not too complicated, as long as it is aligned with normal DNA sequences to find clearly abnormal fragments.
Of course, each person's DNA contains very different genetic information, which is why it needs to be cross-referenced multiple times.
Ling Yiyi just smiled slightly, like a quiet elf, and didn't bother anyone.
She was clear and grateful, because she knew that these people were working to regain her light.
"Hmm...... How's the progress? ”
Molly didn't raise her head, and said casually: "It's hard to say, Sister Bingbing, they haven't discussed the results yet, so they may not be optimistic." ”
"Huh?"
"The results of the automatic analysis of the instrument...... There was no abnormality, and I personally compared it with the genetic fragments of normal people three times, just in case...... Well? Who are you?! Phew! When did you guys come here! ”
As she spoke, Molly suddenly realized that something was wrong, and turned her head sharply, just to meet a dark face.
"You, you, why is your face so black? Did you run out to dig coal? ”
"Black?"
Yi Rin didn't pay attention, and subconsciously wiped his face, this time, there was an extra layer of black gray on the palm.
“……”
Ling Yiyi heard the conversation between the two, and finally couldn't help it, and laughed out loud without any image.
Laughed for a while.
After Ling Yiyi breathed a little smoother, she said happily, "I'm really curious about what Lily said about Xiao Rin's current appearance. ”
Irin turned his head.
All of a sudden, it was a little uncomfortable.
"Irin!"
Molly suddenly called out again.
Irin subconsciously turned his head.
He was a little surprised, after all, it was rare for Molly to call his name so formally since she "met".
Click.
Then I was confused by the flash.
Molly shook her phone, held her small chest, and looked proud: "Hehe, I kept this photo, and when Sister Yiyi can see things, Miss Ben will print out your ugly photo as soon as possible, high-definition uncensored, framed with bulletproof glass and hung on the wall!" Huh! ”
Irin: "......"
Ling Yiyi was a little expectant: "Mmmmmmmm Don't let him delete it secretly! ”
Irin, who immediately rushed to the bathroom and looked in the mirror, was indeed a little ugly.
While in the bathroom, after Irin's face was cleaned, he couldn't help but laugh in the mirror.
It seems that Molly and Ling Yiyi get along well, it seems that no matter which timeline they are in, the fate between people seems to be destined in the dark and will not be easily broken.
In this way, Irin can rest assured that he can focus on his own business.
After washing his face, Irin came out of the bathroom, his expression had returned to calm, and no one could see through Irin's innermost thoughts through this poker face.
Well, in fact, there is no need for Molly to be like this, this girl's EQ is too low...... It's just that Irin's habit is like this.
"Didn't you come here if you were fine?" Only then did Molly remember to complain: "Didn't I tell you, it won't be so quick to reach a conclusion here for a while, and when there is a conclusion, I will notify you immediately, you hurry up and go to sleep where it is cool!" ”
Well? Irin suddenly felt inexplicably familiar with this, as if he had said this to Molly when and where.
Woman...... Sure enough, be careful.
Irin, who secretly added a "stingy" label to Molly.
But Irin naturally didn't have anything to say in his heart, so he smiled and said what he meant.
"Huh? Coins? And a lot more? Molly couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this: "What do you want that thing for?" Don't you know that since the complete popularization of electronic money, this thing is about to become the dregs of history? In the near future, they may all be sold as antiques. ”
"Is that any?"
"Yes, yes, ......yes," Molly suddenly whispered, "They estimated that they had cast a lot of them before, but I can't be sure if they were recast later." ”
Irin nodded, not surprised by Molly's reply.
"Well, I just need metal that's probably the shape, if not...... The shape of the beads is also fine, the diameter is best not more than 2cm, the heavier the better! Meng Meng, you can help me find it! ”
After saying that, Irin unceremoniously "please" Molly and left the place in a hurry.
Ako, who looks like she's really busy.
It wasn't until Irin's figure completely disappeared in front of her that Molly came back to her senses: "That dead soul is faint! He even instructed Miss Ben to work again! ”
Ling Yiyi listened to Molly's voice, couldn't help but smile, and covered her mouth with a smile.
……
After Irin asks Molly to find the hammer, she goes back to where she is.
For the [Unstable Explosives] attempt, Irin has a preliminary result.
The next step in the use of skills is to wait for Molly to find the first batch of steel hammers, so there is no hurry.
"Next ......"
Irin glanced at the Apostle panel.
Psionic energy has also recovered quite a bit.
So Irin's took a deep breath.
His expression instantly became extremely focused, with a bit of solemnity.
Irin slowly raised a finger.
All the attention is focused on the fingertips.
In an instant, it was as if there was something, formless and colorless, on Irin's fingertips, spinning slightly, like a small whirlpool.
A few days later.
Irin was very moist.
Molly strangely got better and better with Ling Yiyi, to the point that it made Irin a little unbelievable.
Since it's good, Irin's simply too lazy to think about it.
Let Miss Mo toss.
And finally, after several days of discussion and examination, they made a preliminary diagnosis of Ling Yiyi's condition.
- There is no diagnosis.
That's right.
After analysis by a group of experts, Ling Yiyi's condition is not a disease at all.
Even the symptom of "optic nerve atrophy" still needs to be investigated.
The specifics, Yi Rin didn't understand.
It's just that Han Bingbing later came to Yi Rin with a guilty face, saying that he couldn't do anything.
Her original words at the time were: "I'm really sorry, it may be limited to the current level of human technology, we can't fully confirm the cause of Miss Ling's blindness, you may think it's ridiculous to say, after I analyzed all the data, the first reaction that appeared in my mind was ......"
"She was robbed of her light by God...... Hehe. Ridiculous, right? ”
Amusing?
Not ridiculous at all.
Irin couldn't laugh at all.
God?
If it had been before the Four Towers appeared, perhaps Irin would have been an absolute atheist.
But as the tip that changes everything—
Do you believe that there is a God? 】
【YES/NO? 】
It is precisely because some people believe that there is such a person as an "apostle".
If Mo Ren Tou Tie chose "NO", he has never been summoned again.
Even if you kill an apostle with your own hands, you can't become an apostle again.
It's like ...... Forsaken by God.
But in fact, Irin does not feel that the "apostles" are the chosen ones of God.
Since there is a God.
What Han Bingbing said had no sense of disobedience.
Ling Yiyi is a poor person who has been robbed of his light and is no longer favored by the light.
Han Bingbing saw that Yi Rin was depressed at that time, and although he couldn't do anything, he also proposed a treatment plan that might be useful.
This treatment plan has also been approved by other specialists.
Worst-case scenario...... That is, to keep it as it is, and there will be no harm.
"Using pulse waves that can simulate nerve impulses to stimulate Miss Ling's optic nerve, and then assisting some drugs to nourish the nerves and assist in nerve recovery, may help Miss Ling."
Before Han Bingbing left, he also left a hope for Yi Rin half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Well, but don't worry, I'll check the relevant information after I go back to see if there are any rare cases like Miss Ling in the past few years, and if there is any new news, I will notify you as soon as possible."
"Thank you."
All the specialists in medicine are gone.
Molly's lab seemed to fall silent again.
After discussing with Molly, Irin also agreed to Han Bingbing's treatment plan.
But in Molly's lab, there is no pulse therapy device that can be safely used in the human body, so she can only wait for Han Bingbing to airlift one from her laboratory soon.
Although Molly is a little heartbroken every time she sees Ling Yiyi's bulging clothes, this time it didn't help, Molly's mood was all written on her face, even if she was talking to Irin, she was listless, like a wilted eggplant.
As the next world trial approaches, Irin can only leave this time to Molly to deal with.
After all, Irin had gone through another timeline and knew very well that this was not something that would be solved in a moment.
Perhaps, it is not a disease that "current humans" can solve.
But since it's a treatment that doesn't hurt, Irin can only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor to see if it can be useful.
After the apocalypse, many precision instruments on the human side have been destroyed, and not many can be preserved intact, which may also be an opportunity for Ling Yiyi to regain his sight.
Afterwards, Yi Rin did not hide it from Ling Yiyi, and told her the result one by one.
Ling Yiyi is very optimistic, now she has a keen sense of hearing, and she has long been accustomed to being blind, and her daily life is not very affected.
Two more days passed.
Irin is also working tirelessly to develop new skills.
In the room, Irin was sweating profusely.
I saw that he kept stretching out his fingers, concentrating, condensing, until all the spiritual energy points were exhausted, prostration, resting, and recovering...... Infinite loop.
Irin gradually found his form.
This is just one of the "certain abilities" that Irin will master in the future.
But since returning from the "Duel Space", Irin's discovery that he still doesn't have enough hole cards, so he decided to try ahead of time and recreate that ability with a lower mental attribute.
At present, the telekinetic power is still a castrated version, and when it really reaches the first layer of spiritual lock, many familiar operations cannot be performed.
It's very uncomfortable.
But Yi Rin didn't complain, it was better to be able to use the castrated version of the telekinesis before the first layer of spiritual lock was completely broken, and there was nothing to complain about.
Compared to many spiritual side apostles who could only rely on the skills granted by the "tower", Irin's current situation can be said to be countless times better, taking advantage of the reborn.
Hum.
Who can't open a hanging?
Was Goldfinger a surprise?
Isn't it normal for the Respawner to have a hand?
"Huh? Are you still here? Ay? What are you doing? ”
Just when Irin was like constipation, squatting on the ground, holding up his fingers, and looking sad.
Molly walked in.
Seeing Irin's posture and movements, Molly couldn't help but be stunned.
Yi Rin raised his head, dissipated the mental power wrapped around his fingertips, picked up the clean towel around his neck and wiped his sweat, and asked casually, "What's wrong?" The steel hammer is back? ”
When Molly heard this, she crossed her waist and raised her eyebrows slightly to the left and right: "Huh? You only remember your steel hammer, and you think about the steel hammer all day long, don't you care about Sister Yiyi? Her ......"
Irin smiled and interrupted Molly, "Isn't this you?" As long as you don't rush in frizzy, it means that everything is fine, what do I have to worry about? Don't you have faith in yourself? ”
Hey?
This logic ...... There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it!
How could I, Mo Mengmeng, not have confidence in myself!
In fact, after Han Bingbing transported the treatment equipment, Ling Yiyi has now started the first stage of pulse wave therapy under Molly's observation, and the treatment intensity is not large.
According to Han Bingbing's speculation, normally speaking, if the pulse wave that simulates nerve conduction impulses takes effect, Ling Yiyi's "dead" optic nerve may be "activated" again.
In short, for now, everything is unknown.
"Wait! Who do you say is frizzy? ”
Only then did Molly react, her apricot eyes widening.
"I said I." Irin was expressionless.
"Oh, that's fine." Molly breathed a sigh of relief, then she was satisfied, and then finally got to the point: "By the way, I will order what you want, and I promise to give you a surprise." But then again, what do you want this thing for? ”
Custom-made?
Hearing this, Irin was slightly stunned.
Didn't you say a good steel hammer?
Still need to be customized?
Seeing Irin's surprised expression, Molly's expression became more and more frustrated, as if she was happy to see Irin surprised by her.
Hmph.
Bang Bang!
Molly made up the sound effect of her debut by herself, then took out her phone and did a round of crazy manipulation.
Immediately after, a tall and strange robot with two huge steel tongs, holding a silver metal box, slowly moved towards this side.
The metal box is square in shape, about half a meter in diameter, and has sharp edges.
It didn't look like a heavy box, but just as the robot was unloading, it slammed in front of Irin, and Irin seemed to feel the floor tremble slightly at the moment of landing.
"Huh?"
Irin's expression moved.
Molly didn't hold back and continued to sell the guanzi, and after setting the program to return the robot to its original position, she entered a series of instructions into her mobile phone, and the box slowly opened.
When the box was opened, there was no bloody "Li Changge-style" special effect that brightened the blind dog's eyes.
In the box, to Irin's surprise, it was full of small round beads.
Ball?
Wasn't it a steel hammer?
However, at first, Irin's fear of trouble, but in terms of practicality, Irin's still thinks that the shape of the steel ball will be more appropriate and more convenient.
Without saying a word, Irin's straight twisted one.
At the moment when the small steel ball was in his hands, Yi Rin clearly felt that the weight of this "steel ball" was far heavier than he imagined.
"It's ...... What material? ”
In front of Molly, Irin was very cooperative with questions.
And Molly seemed to enjoy seeing Irin's expression full of question marks, and said with a smile, "You don't understand this, do you?" Didn't you say heavier, better? After the real currency was not in circulation, all those steel hammers were remanufactured in the furnace, and although they can be found on the market now, it is still a little difficult to find a batch of them. ”
"I simply asked my friend to customize a batch of new alloys based on osmium and iridium, and made all these alloys into beads.
Seeing Irin's confused face, Molly continued to explain: "These two metals are the densest, and they can be said to be the heaviest alloys that can be mass-produced at the moment, but in terms of hardness, they may be a little worse than alloys of other elements. ”
"But you didn't say you wanted to be hard, if you don't like it, you can't blame me!"
Molly was afraid that Irin would complain, so she directly blocked Irin's back road.
"No, no, no!" Irin's smile grew stronger: "Satisfied! Satisfied! Very satisfied! Meng Meng, thank you so much! ”
Molly's expression froze: "Did you misunderstand something?" ”
Irin: "? ”
"When did I say there would be no charge?"
"Ah, this ......" Yi Rin thought at first that it was just a steel hammer, even if Mo Mengmeng's Taurus attribute exploded, it wouldn't cost a few dollars, but Yi Rin didn't expect that he originally just wanted to order a piece of clothing, but Mo Mengmeng made a steel suit...... Something like this feeling.
But...... Irin is undeniably perfect!
As long as you can successfully cross the judgment of the tower and enter the storage space, then it is worth the amount of money.
Unless...... Too much money.
"Well, how much?"
Molly smiled and quickly pressed a string of numbers on her phone.
"Don't worry, I'll round it up for you! Easy to remember! HiaHiaHia——”
Molly laughed wickedly, wave after wave.
Irin looked at the long string of zeros, and his eyes darkened.
Molly was clear about Yi Rin's current assets, and she had long expected that Yi Rin couldn't afford to pay it back, so she waved her little hand: "Forget it, let's owe it first, I guess you are used as a 'secret weapon', right?" This stuff is a bit expensive, if you can, remember to recycle it after use. ”
"Recycling?"
Irin's expression instantly became strange, and he asked cautiously, "Well, if, I mean if...... There's no way to recycle it? ”
“?”
