Chapter 5: The Chosen by Fate

"Director, you?!" Xue Qiong's eyes widened, she didn't hesitate at first, but she didn't know if it had any effect, she opened the Nian Qi Hood, and included everyone in the protection, and at the same time reached out to the director's back, wanting to snatch the piece of life crystal.

Bald Head, Xiao Yun, and other members of the research team also moved, but the director took out a utility knife out of nowhere and gently pressed it against his own neck, and everyone didn't dare to move.

At this time, Gongzi seemed to remember something, took out an injection gun from his pocket, and without thinking about it, he shot into the major artery on Fu Shuai's other leg.

It was Hou Gongzi who improved 5D777 after analyzing the ingredients of "I love a piece of firewood", and the name was still insincere 5D778. This thing can at least stimulate Fu Shuai's vitality and improve his chances of survival, as for the side effects or something... It doesn't matter, anyway, there are still so many test subjects locked up in the basement, the work that Xiaoyun and the accountant are responsible for, and there are also "products" that haven't had time to be delivered.

"Look." The director compared his chin to Fu Shuai, who was sitting next to him, and the utility knife also rubbed twice on his neck... Looking at him, it seems that he is really not afraid of life and death.

At this time, Xue Qiong looked at Fu Shuai anxiously, and the bald fingers also caught Fu Shuai's neck like lightning and probed his pulse.

"Not dead." The bald head removed his fingers, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, while looking at the director again in bewilderment.

The director smiled slightly, didn't say anything, just put down the utility knife around his neck, and watched with interest what was happening to Fu Shuai.

This arrow in the JOJO world can allow the person or any animal that is shot by it to obtain a strange superpower called a stand-in, but it is also very risky, because as long as the stand-in is not successfully activated, no matter what part the victim is stabbed in, it will die directly.

Samsara-reins usually have to stack points to increase the success rate when using such risky enhancements, and a single life crystal is absolutely unavoidable.

If you don't pay points, you have to gamble your life. And there are also reincarnators who have tried to complete a 100% successful reinforcement under normal circumstances without using life crystals and paying money, but the result is that the reinforcement is obviously successful, but the next time the body is repaired, the regenerated limbs have changed back to the state before the reinforcement, and this reinforcement can obviously grow, but no matter how the tester's own strength is improved, the energy in the body is also increasing, but it just can't unlock new skills.

Regarding this situation, it has been said among reincarnators that when the reincarnation's physical condition changes significantly, life crystals can allow beacons to record new states for future whole-body repair operations, and incidentally serve as proof of some kind of "authority".

But Fu Shuai's current situation is very strange, not to mention Xue Qiong's mental qi mask that was only opened after the arrow stabbed down, I don't know if there is any use for birds, Fu Shuai's current identity is not a reincarnation at all, and...

When the arrow pierced Fu Shuai's thigh, he fainted. But at the same time, there was a strange phenomenon on the stony arrow, it began to weather, it began to crumble little by little, then it turned into crushed stone powder, and finally disappeared completely into thin air... Yes, this process is more like a piece of dry ice that gradually melts than weathering, because when it breaks, there is nothing left.

The bald head began to throw healing magic at Fu Shuai's body non-stop, and the blood hole on Fu Shuai's leg did not spurt blood after the arrow disappeared, but healed quickly, I don't know if it was because of the healing magic, or for some other reason...

Xue Qiong, on the other hand, watched his pupils suddenly shrink after the wound on Fu Shuai's leg was completely healed and his fair skin grew.

Behind Fu Shuai, a figure suddenly appeared.

The figure was wearing a light blue surgical mask on its mouth, a sterile cap on its head was also light blue, and it was wearing a white lab coat with a shirt and tie on the inside, and a rubber apron on the outside.

All the outfits are stained with a lot of blood, but at first glance, there is no dirty feeling at all...

But there is an eerie sense of sacredness.

The figure's skin is grayish-white, and its eyes have no whites, and they are a very complete and clear black. His head was held high, but Xue Qiong knew very well that those eyes, like a bottomless black pool, were looking at him indifferently.

His hands were very beautiful, and the ten slender jade fingers looked like a woman's, but they were wearing rubber gloves, and they were clean, rather quietly resting on each other, gently flat on his chest.

In addition to the hands, the entire size of this figure is also relatively slender. But behind the figure, there is also a blood-stained cloth pocket larger than the main body, tied behind it with a medical restraint belt.

The pockets were full of all sorts of strange things, and they looked very heavy, but it was clear that this thing didn't actually weigh much, and even if the slender figure carried so many things, it didn't feel overwhelmed... While the figure was leaning back, it was definitely more due to the natural and interesting poses of the JOJO world than the weight of the cloth pocket.

And what's in that cloth pocket... With Xue Qiong's rich experience, Rao only recognized a few of them from the shape of the cloth pocket that was stretched out, and some sharp parts of the pocket, revealing a small part of the things and the part above the pocket that was not tightly tied.

Portable folding operating tables, forceps for nail pulling, saws for amputation, suture needles, several scalpels, and a few brown medicine bottles with sticks exposed, Xue Qiong only recognized ether and formalin...

Xue Qiong didn't observe the figure behind Fu Shuai for a long time, but he still knew that Fu Shuai had successfully awakened his stand-in ability, summoned his stand-in, and did not die, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

After the other people present noticed the change in Xue Qiong's eyes and expressions, they all looked at him strangely.

The director's eyes lit up, and he was the first to ask, "You saw it?!" ”

Xue Qiong nodded with a complicated expression. And there was no stupid person around, so they instantly understood the meaning of the conversation between these two people, that is, only Xue Qiong, who had that kind of perception ability, saw the stand-in that appeared behind Fu Shuai.

Knowing that the director's inexplicable move was really successful, everyone present was also relieved, but even if they knew that the director had a reason and was sure of everything, they were still a little angry about his behavior.

As soon as Xue Qiong wanted to say a few words, the director waved his hand, looked at Fu Shuai, who was still in a coma, sighed and said, "Do you remember the setting in the original JOJO?" Those who can use this arrow to activate the ability of the stand-in are 'chosen by fate'... It's enviable..."

The director obviously had something to say, but before he could say anything, Fu Shuai suddenly opened his eyes and looked around suspiciously, and the director immediately closed his mouth.

At this time, the aura mask released by Xue Qiong had just dissipated, so he asked with a smile, "Fu Shuai, how do you feel?" ”

"Don't you feel like that?" Fu Shuai didn't seem to react yet, "Wait, I wasn't directed just now..."

Speaking of this, Fu Shuai remembered and glanced at his not slender thighs. But except for the two holes in the left and right trouser legs, one large and one small, there is no problem with his legs now, and the skin there has no signs of injury at all, and it is still as white as jade.

Hou Gongzi saw that the crisis was resolved, but after seeing that the crisis was resolved, he was as noisy as ever, "Fu Shuai! Stand-in! You've awakened your stand-in! I saw it all now! But you still have to thank the master for helping you, if it weren't for the master's proud work 5D778, maybe you would have burped just now~"

When Fu Shuai heard the word stand-in, his face was still at a loss, but after hearing the term 5D778, his face instantly turned pale, and at the same time, the expression muscles of the whole face twitched.

"Try it." Xue Qiong handed out a cigarette to everyone who smoked cigarettes present, including Fu Shuai and the director, "Although I don't know much about the specific method, it is your stand-in, and you can still summon it after all." ”

"Hmm..." Fu Shuai took the lit cigarette in his mouth, closed his eyes, and then his expression changed to constipation.

It didn't take long for the figure to appear behind Fu Shuai again. At the same time that Xue Qiong saw it, Fu Shuai also seemed to sense something, opened his eyes, got up from the chair, and then turned back and looked at his own stand-in curiously.

"It's a little ugly..."Although he said this, Fu Shuai laughed like that sunny boy again, "But even if it looks like it, it's quite a match for me!" ”

"Senior, senior!" Xiao Yun grabbed Xue Qiong's arm and began to shake, "What does it look like?" What does Fu Shuai's stand-in look like? ”

"Uh..."

The only people who could see the stand-ins were Xue Qiong and Fu Shuai. The two of them tried to describe the appearance of Fu Shuai's stand-in, and then the others also nodded with their arms when they listened, making up for that image in their minds, and at the same time deeply agreed with Fu Shuai's sentence "It's a good match with me".

"Okay, let's not worry about the stand-in for now." Xue Qiong took the life crystals from the director's hands, and handed them to Fu Shuai along with the bottle of blessed holy water, "Drink this, use the life crystals this time." ”

"Oh." Fu Shuai sat back in his chair, holding the life crystal in one hand and the crystal bottle in the other, and drank the holy water inside with a bang.

And in everyone's eyes, as Fu Shuai drank the holy water, the life crystals in his other hand slowly dissipated into the air...

"Is that so..."

Xue Qiong and the director pushed their glasses one and the other held their chins, looking at this scene thoughtfully.
