Chapter 189: Berserk and Doppelganger
Placing Yao Tong's wood carving in front of him, Shen Xing looked at it carefully for a moment.
After a while, a feeling of extreme discomfort suddenly appeared in his heart, almost reaching the level of nausea and discomfort.
And the black shadow of Yao Tong after the split in the wood carving seems to be still affecting everything around him, including himself.
Shen Xing immediately decided to absorb its characteristics first, rather than waiting until the wood carving of the seed woman was remade.
And if this thing doesn't absorb its properties as soon as possible, it may cause other accidents after a long time.
Taking a deep breath, his eyes fell on Yao Tong's wood carving again, and he vaguely seemed to be able to hear bursts of terrible roars in his ears, like a fierce wind raging in his ears, constantly undulating.
A line of text comes to mind.
The condition of absorbing Yao Tong's characteristics has been reached, and the absorption characteristics can increase the strength of the host's body, and there is a certain chance to obtain latent skills, do you want to start absorbing them now?
For this kind of sequence-level anomaly, Shen Xing already knew that it was almost impossible to achieve the absorption conditions just by speculating on the characteristics as before, and the only way to do so was to directly store it in the wood carving.
Because in the process of storage, oneself and the anomaly are in deep contact, not just by speculation, but directly involved in the action of the characteristic, so this is more intense than speculation.
Once the anomaly is included in the wood carving, the conditions for absorption are almost met.
However, Shen Xing guessed that perhaps the higher the sequence level, the higher the level anomalies in the future, even if they touched the other party with the made wood carving, they would not be able to absorb them all at once.
High-level anomalies may have more triggers.
"Absorb!"
After meditating in his heart, the Yao Tong wood carving in front of him made a familiar vibration, and then stopped.
Different from the past, Shen Xing's head buzzed, and a violent, domineering, raging, jealous, and murderous aura poured into his mind, and for a second, Shen Xing's eyes appeared bloodshot one after another, full of pupils, and the whole person became hideous and terrifying, like a suddenly angry mad lion, and even his hair stood up slightly.
But soon this irrepressible feeling subsided, and he looked at his hands in surprise, thinking that it was just an illusion.
I saw that my skin had turned reddish, and the green tendons under the skin were highlighted, and this moment was slowly calming down.
And when he was furious just now, Shen Xing felt an urge to lose control of himself and want to destroy all the items in this room.
He immediately got up and walked to the mirror, and found that his cheeks were slightly puffy, and they looked like protruding muscles, which were fading but still frightening.
Even there are muscles on his face, but he didn't expect that absorbing the characteristics of Yao Tong, who was split, and Yao Tong, who was blackened, would have such a terrifying effect!
I don't know if this effect will only occur at the moment of absorption, or if it will appear in the future, if it also appears in the future and is not controlled, it will be a bit tricky.
What Shen Xing thought was that even if he would be violent in the future, at least it was best when he was angry, or when he could control it, otherwise this would not be a special ability, and it would only be a disaster for himself.
For this reason, he deliberately opened his different pupils and carefully examined himself in the mirror, and sure enough, a faint red aura rose from outside his body at this moment.
This is the abnormal aura left in the body after the rage just now, and it is currently volatilizing rapidly.
In his current state, Shen Xing felt more and more like an abnormality!
I looked at the body enhancement under my nose again, and it showed that it was: Mortal 520.
What an allegorical number, after seeing this number, Ye Ting's shadow unconsciously appeared in his mind.
He has begun to seriously suspect that he is not reborn at all, maybe he is originally indigenous, and Ye Ting, who has always been thinking about him, may not be his real girlfriend at all.
In any case, if you can successfully deal with the person facing the wall this time, the next contract with the "consultant", and the request you put forward must be to figure out your memory problem first.
Because of the influence of the berserk cause just now, the mortal body strengthened by more than a hundred percent at this moment, but there was no big abnormality from the surface of the body, such as the emergence of a more solid black tendon protective film.
Instead, it was completely covered in the red skin and exposed green tendons brought by the rage.
At this moment, a familiar text message popped out of my mind.
Gain the Latent Skill: Mind Clone
Method: Active Skill
Effect: Spawns a clone that acts exactly as the host wishes
Cost: Three progress bars of mental power
Side effects: There is a certain chance that the doppelganger will fail, and the consequence of failure is that the consciousness splits into the body of a nearby person, and the person is temporarily taken away, and the time of the seizure depends on the strength of the person's consciousness. During this time, the host's original body will be blackened, and will randomly mimic anomalous wood carvings that it comes into contact with.
Looking at this newly acquired latent skill, Shen Xing's heart perked up, and the secret path could directly generate a clone that he could control, which was completely different from the current second goods in the family.
This ideological clone is something that he can directly control, which is equivalent to saying that he has two lives in a dangerous situation. In the case of uncertainty, sometimes it is completely possible to leave it to the mind clone to try, which is also equivalent to experiencing it yourself.
However, the side effects of this ideological clone are really worrying, if the doppelganger fails, it will be like Yao Tong, and there will be a split consciousness.
Forget it, the result of the split consciousness is that you have to possess others, and your original body will be blackened and imitate the abnormal?!
Just thinking about it makes this side effect bizarre enough.
Standing in front of the mirror until the skin of his whole body returned to normal, and after looking carefully and making sure that there was nothing else, Shen Xing returned to the table, put away Yao Tong's wood carving, and then went to lie down on the bed.
Looking at the time, I don't know how long it will take for the delivery man at the wood art market to deliver the timber he ordered.
Although the strength of his body became stronger again, he only slept for 5 hours last night, and Shen Xing quickly became sleepy, pulled the quilt over his body, and fell asleep after a while.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Shortly after he fell asleep, a man in a black trench coat appeared in the hallway outside the room.
This man has long hair, fair skin, a cold face, and is handsome and handsome, and he is still a long-legged Oba.
He walked quickly, his feet on the soft carpet that had been laid out in the hallway, without making a sound.
Walking quickly to the outside of Shen Xing's room, the man paused slightly, as if listening, but soon continued to walk forward and disappeared at the elevator entrance.
Not long after, in the bathroom in Shen Xing's room, in front of the luxuriously decorated sink, there was a snapping sound from the faucet, as if the water had been stopped for a long time and suddenly came in, and a stream of water was about to gush out after being connected.
But after the sound appeared, there was no more movement.
Shen Xing slept on the big bed outside, turned over slightly, and was not woken up by this very slight noise.
After about ten minutes, the faucet came again, but this time it was quieter and could only be heard in the bathroom.
Shortly after, a few droplets of water dripped from the faucet, and a strand of black hair slid out, the tips of which hung out of the faucet and dragged them into the washbasin.
But soon, the long black hair suddenly twitched, as if it came to life, and swooped back into the faucet, disappearing.
Shen Xing didn't wake up until the afternoon from his sleep, and he didn't wake up naturally, but was woken up by the vibration of his mobile phone.
Sleepy-eyed, I took the phone and looked at it, and found that it was an unfamiliar number, and after connecting it, a middle-aged man's voice came from there.
"Hey, is that Mr. Shen?"
Shen Xingdao: "Yes, you are the ...... of the wood art market"
"Yes, I've got wood for you." The middle-aged man said, and then asked Shen Xing's room number, and indicated that he had arrived downstairs in the hotel, and he would send it up immediately.
Hanging up the phone, Shen Xing stretched his waist and sat up from the bed.
Then he was stunned, rubbed his right eye, blinked it twice, and then gently rubbed it again.
At this moment, he realized that his right eye was out of sight.
After a slight panic, he quickly reacted, isn't the blindness in his right eye related to the use of the heteropupil latent skill just now?
After all, the side effects of the different pupils are very clear, after using this skill, there is a certain chance that the eyes will be blinded, but it can recover on its own within six hours.
Shen Xing sat on the bed and gently pressed the socket of his right eye, not noticing pain or discomfort, but he couldn't see anything with this eye.
This should be a side effect of using the different pupils, not something happened to the body.
He blinked his left eye and saw that there was nothing wrong with it, and he could still see it clearly.
Although I am blind in my right eye now, my left eye is still normal, and at most this appearance has caused me a certain discomfort, but there is nothing to be careful in the process of ordinary actions.
However, this situation is certainly not suitable for immediate contact with the wall-facing person.
There was a quick knock on the room door.
Shen Xing put on his slippers and deliberately slowed down his pace to get used to the inconvenience of his eyesight.
"Who?"
"Mr. Shen, I just called you and sent you wood." A middle-aged man's voice rang out.
Shen Xing walked over and opened the door, and the man standing outside the door was not tall, about one meter six, wearing a dark blue jacket and black trousers, a motorcycle helmet under his arm, and a sturdy plastic bag in his right hand.
"This is the goods you want, the best goods in our store, this one is 328 yuan, you can give 350 for the shipping fee." The man said: "The airport is on the outskirts of the city, and I was stuck in traffic several times on my motorcycle, and I finally got around. ”
Shen Xing nodded and took the plastic bag, this was not originally in the center of the city, and the other party had to walk a lot to transport the wood.
"Do you think you pay in cash or scan the QR code?" The middle-aged man asked.
"Scan the code." Shen Xing was about to take out his phone, but before taking it, he glanced at the plastic bag.
"Huh? You're not right. Shen Xing was suspicious, and reached out to take out a boxy piece of wood from the plastic bag.
This wood is about half an arm long, the width of the two arms combined, and the wood is also wrapped in a layer of white soft paper, but it may be that the soft paper was worn by the corners on the way, causing the wood to be exposed, so Shen Xingcai noticed that something was wrong at a glance.
The middle-aged man looked stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Xing didn't answer immediately, but tore all the layers of soft paper, he only had one eye available now, so that he could see more clearly after tearing it.
"The rosewood I ordered should have a fine grain, bright color, and strong wax bonding, so that I can wax and preserve the wood carving after I finish it. Your wood may seem to be shiny in color, but it's all hand-milled, not naturally generated, and although the surface texture is fine enough, it's actually ......."
Speaking of this, Shen Xing stretched out his thumb and rubbed the surface of the wood in his hand, it seemed that he didn't use much force, but in fact, only he knew the amount of this power.
I saw that where it had been rubbed, a layer of polished skin rolled up, revealing the rough lines inside the wood.
Leaning under his nose and sniffing, Shen Xing sneered, "I want to replace the natural fragrance of rosewood with a light perfume, the fragrance of rosewood has a medicinal smell, unless you boil it with medicinal soup, it can't replace that smell anyway." ”
As soon as he made a phone call, the middle-aged man at the door was dumbfounded, and he who wanted to quibble, was speechless at this time.
Shen Xing said again: "What I want is high-grade rosewood, and you want to cheat me out of my money with this kind of rotten wood that no one wants for a few dollars?" ”
"This ......" the middle-aged man barely squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "It turns out ...... It turns out that this gentleman, you are a wood carver, no wonder ......"
Shen Xing ignored him and said, "Is there any rosewood that you have hanging on the Internet in your store?" If not, please take this thing back, and I'll call your boss right now......"
"Yes! Yes! The middle-aged man immediately nodded, "I put it in the trunk of the motorcycle downstairs, I'll take it right away, I'm sorry sir!" ”
It seems that this guy wants to bet that Shen Xing doesn't understand, so he directly steals the beams and changes the pillars, not only defrauding Shen Xing's money, but also deducting the original wood that the store asked him to send, and then finding a new seller to sell it and make double the money, but he planted it here in Shen Xing.
Like this kind of top-quality rosewood, it is no problem to earn pocket money after selling it secretly, mainly because Shen Xing's original demand is not large, if he wants to buy a larger wood, this middle-aged man still wants to make more money.
When he went downstairs to pick up the goods again, Shen Xing temporarily closed the door.
He was a little worried, for fear that he would meet the arrival of the seed woman at this time.
I went back and poured a glass of water, and after drinking half a glass, there was a knock on the door again.
"Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!"
Listening to the voice of the delivery man at this time, there was obviously a flattering meaning, because he was afraid that Shen Xing would call the store directly, and if the boss knew, everything would be cold.
Opening the door, Shen Xing didn't say anything, took the wood he handed over, tore open the white soft paper to take a closer look, and then leaned under his nose to smell it, and then nodded.
"That's right! Well, how much do you charge now? ”
He asked this deliberately to see how this guy answered.
The middle-aged man scratched the back of his head and said, "Then I don't want the freight, you will pay 328 lines for the goods, and I will send it to you for free." ”
Shen Xing didn't want to talk to him too much, so he didn't say anything, and closed the door after scanning the code to pay.
Leaving the delivery man standing at the door for a while, he sighed while leaving, and slandered in his heart, "Alas, I knew that this person was so knowledgeable, so I wouldn't be greedy for this little cheap!" But ......"
At this point, the delivery man looked up, as if to recall, "The lady standing at the bathroom door behind him is beautiful, but her face is so pale." ”
