Chapter 39: Spirits Are Tentacle Monsters?
Fang Hao arrived home at the normal time after school, and as soon as he entered the door, he smelled the smell of food from the kitchen, and his hunger suddenly doubled.
This time, with the cultivation of the spirit, his physical fitness has become much stronger, and there is not much change from the muscles on the outside, but the improvement in strength is real.
But with that, there is an ever-increasing amount of food. When he entered the Spirit Dao realm, the supplies he brought with him were far more than two egg cakes, all of which he ate and drank, but it was still difficult to comfort his hunger.
I changed my shoes at the door, went to the bedroom to put my schoolbag away, took off my sunglasses and put them on the table, and then went to the kitchen to help my sister.
When Fang Xiaoqing saw him, she asked, "What investigation activities did you go to participate in in the afternoon?" You don't even have to go to class. ”
Fang Hao explained according to Wang Huan's explanation: "The city has conducted a survey on the physical and mental health of teenagers, and there is a public welfare activity after it is over. I forgot to tell you in advance that no one was allowed to use a mobile phone during the whole process. ”
Fang Xiaoqing said: "Although the high school entrance examination can have extra points, you can't put the cart before the horse, you still have to pay close attention to your homework." ”
"yes, I see." Fang Hao responded vaguely, and when he saw that the old lady was no longer entangled in this issue, he relieved himself.
In fact, Fang Hao didn't go home at noon, and the phone couldn't get through, Fang Xiaoqing was quite angry, for fear that her brother's old illness would recur, and where would he go to play.
Later, I thought, with Fang Hao's recent performance, it shouldn't be enough, right?
This so-called performance is not what people do in front of them, but a change in consciousness, and Fang Xiaoqing can really feel it.
She wanted to call the teacher to ask, but she was worried that it would affect the teacher's rest, so she gave up. As a parent of a poor student, there are still quite psychological barriers to communicating with teachers.
As a result, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the school's teaching director called, saying that there was an event in the city, and Fang Hao was randomly selected to participate, and if he performed well, he would get extra points in the high school entrance examination.
Fang Xiaoqing's mobile phone contained the number of the teaching director, although she had not called it once, so she did not doubt the authenticity, but it was a little strange how such a good thing could fall on Fang Hao's head.
But when I thought about it, people said that it was randomly selected, and I was relieved. And those students with good grades probably don't care about this extra point.
The siblings brought the meal to the table. Less than half of the meal, Fang Xiaoqing received a phone call, a batch of goods in the store was to be counted, and she hurriedly finished the meal and went out.
Fang Hao went to the bedroom and picked up the sunglasses and put them back on, and then swept away the food on the table, still feeling that he was not full. I can't help but worry a little about eating like this again, don't make your family poor.
Seeing that the old lady is working so hard, it is not easy to earn some money. I don't know if I have a salary allowance or something after joining the Special Investigation Bureau, so I can support myself.
After washing and cleaning up the used dishes, chopsticks, pots and pans, seeing that the time was almost up, he put on his schoolbag and went out to the special training place given by Wang Huan.
In Fang Hao's imagination, the special training location should be quite tall.
For example, it is a special agent training base, which has all kinds of equipment and facilities, and many people with unique skills sweat in it;
Or a secret stronghold in the middle of the city, which can only be entered through a secret door hidden behind shelves and wardrobes, and the interior is full of technology and ruthlessness;
or an abandoned factory building, a construction site of an unfinished building, with a bit of decadence in the air, focusing on the style of "don't bully the poor youth";
Otherwise, places such as mass graves and cemeteries are fine, and the theme of the spirit and the underworld is a perfect match.
It's a pity that the mobile phone map shows that this place called "Green Willow Bay" is actually an apartment community.
Fang Hao rode his bicycle for about 20 minutes, and after arriving at the place, he parked the car outside the community, and was thinking about whether to follow the residents or contact Wang Huan to pick him up, when he heard someone next to him: "Let's go." ”
There was no warning this time, he was almost bluffed, but fortunately he heard Wang Huan's voice.
Wang Huan carried a bag of things and took Fang Hao into the community. Came to the gate of a building, swiped the access control card, and handed the access control card to Fang Hao after entering: "You take this first, and then come in by yourself next time." ”
Fang Hao took it and asked, "What kind of place is this?" ”
Wang Huan said: "Where I live. ”
It's all here, Fang Hao is not surprised by the answer, but he feels a little sorry for the name "special training".
Wang Huan lives on the 12th floor. The furnishings in the apartment are very simple and therefore a bit empty.
After sitting down in the living room, Wang Huan said, "Take off your sunglasses." ”
Fang Hao did so. After a while, Wang Huan nodded, motioned for him to put it on again, and said, "It seems that your control of spiritual power has some doorways. ”
After coming out of Gao Zhengsong's office in the afternoon, Wang Huan taught Fang Hao a set of mental power control techniques and asked him to practice from time to time.
At this time, Fang Hao took off his sunglasses, and the strength of the spiritual power he showed was probably equivalent to the level of the ninth grade.
It only took more than three hours to master this level, and the progress was amazing. But when he thought that this kid was a genius with 100% completion of the Dao realm, Wang Huan felt that he should take it for granted.
Fang Hao pointed to the sunglasses on his nose and asked, "Do I want to wear this all the time in the future?" ”
"You should wear it before you cultivate to the sixth grade, and I will do the same." Wang Huan said and pointed to himself.
He told Fang Hao some basic common sense and precautions in the afternoon, and he didn't have time to elaborate on the reasoning, so he explained it at this time.
"What we call 'mental power' is not a psychological concept, you can think of it as a tentacle of the brain. For the average person, this tentacle is curled up in the brain, unable to interact with the outside world. But with the blessing of the Yuan Qi, the tentacles can stretch out and act on any existence in the outside world. ”
Fang Hao was very surprised: "Any existence? ”
Wang Huan said: "Yes, but the effect is strong and weak. The effect between spiritual forces is the strongest, followed by the effect on the existence of spirit seeds and spirit bodies, and the third is the vitality of the body, which has the weakest effect on ordinary physical matter.
"This contrasting relationship is like the four fundamental forces, the strong nuclear force is the strongest, the electromagnetic force is second, the weak nuclear force is again, and the gravitational force is the weakest."
Fang Hao couldn't help but open his mouth, thinking, "I originally understood it, but I was stunned by your chestnut." It seems that if you don't study hard, even your cultivation will be affected. ”
After vomiting in his heart, he asked, "In this way, other talented people can also stretch out the tentacle of spiritual power?" ”
Wang Huan said: "That's right. It's just that the spirit genius can stretch out the tentacles very long, and the people with other talents stretch it shorter, and ordinary people can't stretch it out at all. But you have to pay attention to the fact that the length and strength of the tentacles are two different things.
"The Spirit only has a clear advantage in length, not necessarily in strength. This is not only compared to other talented people, but some ordinary people who have not obtained the pass may also have extremely strong mental power.
"Be cautious when applying psychic effects to others, such as remembering silence. If you encounter someone with stronger mental power than you, it is easy to be counterattacked. ”
Fang Hao nodded and wrote it down seriously. He is not sloppy about safety-related matters.
Wang Huan said: "Our control of mental power is essentially the same as controlling the limbs of the body. It's just that this tentacle is acquired, and it is in a relatively immature state, and it is a little less obedient.
"It's like a baby, it always takes a process to get from learning to roll over, to being able to crawl on the ground, to getting up and walking. Until then, he must be wrapped in swaddling clothes, otherwise he is likely to injure himself with a hand that he does not fully control. ”
Fang Hao said: "So the role of these glasses is equivalent to swaddling?" ”
Wang Huan nodded: "We are most accustomed to using our eyes for spatial positioning, and the consciousness of the brain often falls on the focus of the gaze. For ordinary people, this is nothing, but the spiritual power of the spirit will involuntarily extend outward, interact with the object of concern, and consume the vitality in the body at the same time.
"Although this kind of unconscious behavior consumes very little vitality, in our so-called 'Xuan Realm', the vitality only goes in and out, so even if it is a small opening, once it is opened for a long time, it will accumulate a large amount of vitality. As for the consequences of running out of energy, I have already talked to you about it in the afternoon. ”
Fang Hao couldn't help but lift his glasses. I thought to myself, good guy, the spirits who have been made for a long time are all tentacle monsters.
said: "So if you want your spiritual power tentacles to become mature and obedient, you have to reach the six grades of cultivation?" ”
Wang Huan said, "Yes. From the seventh grade to the sixth grade is a watershed, at that time, not only can we accurately control the mental power, but our physical fitness will also be improved in place to meet the requirements of accommodating vitality, and the amount of food will slowly return to the level of normal people. ”
Fang Hao said: "Oh, that is to say, the rice bucket attribute will always be maintained before the sixth grade. ”
Wang Huan smiled and said, "Many people think that there is nothing wrong with this, you can eat it unscrupulously, but you don't have to worry about gaining weight." ”
As he spoke, he put the bag he was carrying on the table and pulled it out in the same way, and it was all packaged with all kinds of delicacies.
Fang Hao was surprised, but he didn't expect that the content of the special training also included additional meals. You're welcome at the moment, put on disposable gloves, grab a roast leg of lamb and nibble on it.
After eating a few bites, he said: "I just think that wearing sunglasses to school is a bit unusual, and I guess the teacher doesn't allow it at all." ”
Wang Huan said: "It doesn't matter, I have prepared a hospital certificate for you, and you can just hand it over to the teacher." ”
Fang Hao was greatly satisfied, and felt that the Special Investigation Bureau was reliable. "When will I be able to join you?" ”
Wang Huan said: "There will always be a chance in the future." You are still young now, and your current priority is to train seriously and go to the stronghold as soon as possible after entering the Metaverse. ”
Fang Hao nodded silently.
Wang Huan's words were more subtle, but Fang Hao understood the core meaning.
For him, the current problem is survival. If you enter the Metaverse, you will be in vain.
After eating, Wang Huan officially began to teach. First, he talked about the mental power control skills for an hour and a half, as well as the basic skills of the spirit, and then talked about a lot of content related to the Metaverse.
All the lectures revolve around one theme: to let Fang Hao survive in the Metaverse.
