Chapter 18: The Movement of Dead Thoughts

The owner of Black Gold Security is a military veteran, and it is said that he served as the personal bodyguard of many high-ranking officials before he was discharged from the army.

The Nosla family signed a ten-year deal with the company for some need.

During this decade, the Nosra family will continue to send personnel to the Black Gold Security for special training.

Black Gold Security needs to provide a certain number of security guards (or thugs to put it bluntly) to the Nothra family every year to help them do things.

In fact, from this order, we can faintly see the great ambition of the contemporary head of the Nosla family.

Even if a normal small gang family gains power, it will shrink rapidly after that, desperately trying to stabilize the territory they have just grabbed.

But the Nosra family is different, not only does not shrink after gaining power, but continues to expand, and the pace of expansion is even more radical than before.

Anyone who knows anything about the power of the gangsters knows that the Nosla family must have something to rely on behind it, otherwise they would never dare to do it.

There are many gangsters in the hunter world, and there are countless hooligans, thugs, and gangsters, but the position of the top ten gangsters has always been fixed.

Ten is ten, and until one of the gangs is disbanded, it is impossible to let the small gangs below rise to power.

In fact, the radical development of the Nosla family has long attracted the attention of the ten old men.

The ten old men didn't rush to make a move, but they hadn't investigated what the Nosra family relied on yet.

Once the hole cards of the Nosra family are exposed, a fierce fight is inevitable, and even if there is a subordinate relationship between the gangs, there will not be even the slightest warmth.

The reason why the Nosra family is in a hurry to recruit bodyguards is precisely because the current head of the family, Nosla, has noticed the prying eyes of the ten old men.

It wasn't a good decision for Bard to join the Nothra family's bodyguards at this time.

Fortunately, the ten old men are still in the investigation stage, and they have no plans to do it in a short time.

Before the secrets of House Nosra are fully revealed, Bard has a long way to grow.

The training prepared by the Black Gold Security Company for Bard is not complicated, the operation of modern equipment, codes and gestures, the identification of common toxins, etc., are all skills that must be mastered by bodyguards.

The training time is half a day, and the remaining half day is free to move.

Bud, who had just had a glimpse of his ability, naturally did not let go of his rare free time, and immediately asked for a vacant training room to exercise alone.

"Gather!"

The point and tongue are relatively simple, as long as you continue to be proficient, you will definitely be able to get started, the difficulty lies in refining, to link your consciousness with the mental qi in your body.

After a night of training, Bud had vaguely grasped a little feeling.

He's almost piercing a layer of paper now, and if he does, everything will fall into place.

But Bard also understood that he was able to get started so quickly because the body itself was very familiar with minds.

His qualifications are just ordinary, and the more anxious he is, the easier it is to make mistakes.

Since there is no hope of a breakthrough in the short term, it is necessary to calm down and take it slowly.

"Seven days, that should be enough."

Just to get the thought moving, Bud is confident that he should be able to do it in seven days.

In fact, if someone points out, there is definitely a shortcut to this step.

"Refining" is not a difficult step, even if it is a wild road, you can practice it by yourself.

It's a pity, perhaps because it's so simple, neither the "Shimura's Practice Notes" nor the "Introductory Guide to Reading Ability" record how to quickly pass this hurdle.

"Well, it's better to lay a solid foundation." There are no shortcuts, and Bud is not disappointed.

He was a passable character, and he worked out until late at night, and after realizing that he had worked hard enough today, Bud returned to the room prepared for him by the Black Gold Security, washed up casually, and went to sleep.

————————

The next morning, Bard was woken up early to start a new day of training.

For the rest of the day, it was probably like that.

I woke up very early in the morning and began to learn the professional knowledge of bodyguards, which lasted until the afternoon when it was getting dark.

Then there is the practice of self, and even if no one supervises him, Bard is very disciplined and insists on exercising until late at night.

At the end of the day, I only get about six hours of sleep a day.

Bud really felt that he had worked very hard, you know, when he was still on Earth in his previous life, he was a pure lying party.

Five days had passed, and as the training continued, Bard became more familiar with the mental energy in his body.

If it hadn't been for an accident that disrupted his plans, there was a good chance that he would have been able to complete the stimulation of "refining" tonight.

"It's really strange, I'm not hurt, why would the death thought come out on its own."

In the small room, Bud looked at the death thought that suddenly appeared in front of him, and his heart was full of consternation.

At the moment when this doubt was born, he suddenly thought of another question.

Death thoughts are born from a person's powerful obsession before death, so what is Badr's obsession?

After some research, Bard came up with the answer: an insatiable thirst for harm.

So here's the problem.

Five days without harm, five days without enough satisfaction, what will happen to the thoughts of death that are hidden in him.

Bud was shocked that he had been so addicted to learning that he had forgotten such an important matter.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly punched himself.

A fist slammed into his chest, and the not-so-high-level pain made Death Nian let out a comfortable groan.

"Sure enough..."

Five days without letting Death Thoughts Cool, this guy will run out on his own.

And another question, what happens in the end if you don't let "it" cool all the time?

Death Thought has a track record of taking control of his body, and Bard doesn't dare to try it at will.

However, he wrote down this conjecture and prepared to try it in a place where no one was around if he had the chance.

Also, after giving himself a punch just now, Bard also found that the high-level damage slumber period of Death Thoughts had passed.

Now, Deathmind is in the period of low-level damage excitement, and it can be excited for a long time if it takes a little damage.

One thing Bard can confirm is that the more excited the thought of death, the stronger the self-healing ability.

Briefly distinguishing the stages of death thoughts, they can be roughly divided into three stages.

Euphoria

Sleep

Runaway period

The excitement period is easy to understand, and the excitement is when you are hurt, and according to the damage level, the higher the damage death, the more exciting it is.

The slumber period is a bit more complicated, and Bard hasn't quite figured it out yet.

What's the difference between slumbering with enough low-level damage and slumbering with enough high-level damage?

Without enough damage, will Deathmind go into a deep sleep?

After entering the period of sleep, can the dead mind still sense the malice of the outside world?

Malice is not harm, it does not cause physical irritation, and Bard has not forgotten the last time he was robbed of his body by Death Thought in the Sky Arena.

In addition, after entering a deep sleep, the need for damage levels of Deathmind seems to slowly diminish over time, which is also an unknown point that requires a lot of testing.

Finally, there is the period of loss of control, which is also the stage that Bard is most afraid of, there is too little information at present, and he does not dare to experiment at will, so he can only continue to be so jealous.

In short, there are so many secrets hidden in Death Thoughts that Bard won't be able to figure it out for a while, let alone try it at will.

Thankfully, aside from taking control of his body, Badr has left behind a death that doesn't show anything unusual.

This is a blessing in disguise.
