Chapter 657 Immortal Disease
Mysterious Tower, 35th floor.
The well-behaved and plump girl hurried to a small house by the lake and found Kirito practicing with a sword in the yard.
"Brother~Brother!"
After calling twice, Kirito did not respond. She realized that Kirito's eyes were a little dull and he just mechanically repeated the movements. She didn't know what he was thinking.
"Brother!!"
So she yelled at the top of her voice, and even scared Kirito's sword off with a clang. Kirito was stunned for two seconds before turning his head mechanically.
"Oh, Suguha, you're here?"
"What do you mean by 'you're here'?"
The girl rolled her eyes at him. Her name is Suguha Kiritani, and she is Kirito's cousin.
More than half a year ago, she finally got her turn to enter the mysterious tower game with a helmet. After being led by Kirito for a while, she chose to be self-reliant. She did not delay the progress of Kirito and others, and was constantly working hard to practice and improve in order to join the strategy group.
"What are you daydreaming about, brother?"
"Forgive him, Suguha." Asuna stood at the door of the cabin and said with a smile, "Mr. Kirito has been a little depressed these days."
"Depressed? Autistic?"
Kirito finally came back to his senses and scratched his head, saying, "It's the Dark Martial Arts Association... How did that mysterious team beat the Toguro brothers two months ago? Toguro brother... simply..."
"We challenged the Dark Martial Arts Association 6 times in total, and finally saw Toguro brother 100% in a somewhat tricky way." Asuna added for him, "But we would rather not have seen it!"
She shrank her neck: "Just a slap, and Mr. Kirito's head flew into my arms, giving me nightmares for three days!"
Suguha paused, imagining that scene, and felt like ants were crawling on her body.
"Fortunately, we have watched each other die tragically in front of us five times before, and we are used to it, otherwise I would also be autistic. Suguha, you came just in time, hurry up and comfort Mr. Kirito."
"Ah, I..." Kirito was a little embarrassed.
They have died tragically five times in front of each other...
"I don't understand your strategy team." Suguha was a little jealous, took out a book from his arms, and said, "I came to you to ask you to help me read this book."
Kirito was stunned, and Asuna also came over.
"Nen ability (basic)?"
"Just bought it." Suguha said, "This thing is sold in the store in the ancient town on the 20th floor. It is consigned by players. This book is worth 100,000 Cole, and only 10 players are allowed to read it."
Kirito looked at the thin booklet with only 20 to 30 pages and opened the first page.
The first thing is to introduce the origin of Nen ability and the way to activate it, followed by the introduction and relationship of the six major systems of Nen ability...
"Hey, someone has compiled the Nen knowledge taught by Grandpa Netero into a book and sold it?" Asuna laughed, "Remember that was about two months after we entered the mysterious tower? Yes, it was done by Argo. With the advantage of being a girl, she got the most detailed knowledge from Grandpa Netero."
"That old pervert..." When it comes to this, Kiritani and Ye subconsciously cross their arms.
"But later, this knowledge became less and less valuable, and the book gradually became unsalable." Asuna continued, "Why is someone selling it again? 100,000 Cole, 10 people read it, it's not expensive."
"So... I lost money?"
"Not really."
"No, Asuna." At this time, Kirito suddenly said, "Look here!"
Asuna looked at it with a slight surprise: "Well, the introduction of applied skills... three ways to train Ken?!"
What is that?
She read along with Kirito, and her face gradually showed an expression of surprise and enlightenment. She read until the end, and her surprise was about to overflow.
"Very useful, right?" Suguha saw some clues: "It wasn't taught by the perverted old man, and you haven't summarized it like this. I said, if there is such a systematic training method, you should teach me, why do I have to stand there stupidly to practice all day long."
"It's not that I didn't summarize it, it's that I don't know how to do it." Asuna whispered softly, stretched out her hand to swipe out the information bar, and checked her level of Nen ability (qi).
"Just reading this page, my Nen ability experience increased by about 2,000 points!"
If their previous understanding of Jian was like having an electric fan, plugging it in and pressing the gear to blow the wind, then now this booklet is to break down the structural principle of the fan and explain it to them in the most easy-to-understand way, listing one to nine, so that they can make it and increase the wind speed!
It even gives three ideas!
Suguha, who had just mastered the "killer mace" not long ago, was amazed and watched the two people read carefully from beginning to end, and then took a breath in unison.
"It's that mysterious team!"
It must be them. Only by mastering this knowledge that is obviously ahead of all other players can they break through several levels in a row! 100,000 Col, it's really too cheap. This knowledge can at least improve the overall strength of the players by one level. Even if it is sold for 10 million Col, it's not expensive!
Also, why sell it?
Could it be that when clearing the 55th floor, I finally encountered trouble and need more help from the clearing team?
"That... is very useful, right?" At this time, Suguha said weakly: "I also sold a book on Nen (Advanced Edition) at the same time as this one. Because of the ridiculous price of 100 million Col, I didn't..."
Before he finished speaking, two pairs of eyes shot over like four headlights.
"Take us there!"
"...You also buy 100 million kel? Do you have so much savings?!"
Kirito and Asuna calmed down for a moment, looked at each other, and then said in unison again: "Borrow some from Liz first, buy it, then kill monsters and return it!"
Suguha: "..."
Good people are crazy when they say they are crazy.
…
the other side.
‘Mysterious Team’ Ji Sung is cooking meat.
The meat in the pot is a puffer whale fished from a special river on the 29th floor of the Mysterious Tower.
As its name suggests, Fish is a monster that has the characteristics of both a pufferfish and a whale. It is very aggressive and cannot be fought by ordinary players in the water.
Its meat is extremely delicious, but very few people know how to handle it. If the poison sac is accidentally scratched, even players with extremely strong physiques will be killed in one bite.
At the dining table outside the kitchen, Argo sniffed the aroma that kept coming, swallowed hard, and muttered: "I have been waiting for a treat for almost two months, and now I am treated to something like this." , must be trying to poison the president to death directly, eliminating the five million contract...
And things like puffer whales don’t reflect the level of a chef at all. As long as I can handle them well, I can cook them into something delicious..."
"That's wrong. The better the quality and the stronger the original flavor of the ingredients, the more it reflects the skill of the chef." Ji Xing brought a plate of fish: "How to make it more delicious without destroying the original flavor is worth learning by ordinary chefs. Will you eat it for the rest of your life?"
"...Eat! Why don't you eat? If you dare to do it, I dare to eat it!" Argo stared at the puffer whale meat on the table and said righteously.
The pufferfish meat entered her mouth, and all six beards on both sides of her cheeks were facing each other in an instant. The girl's face wrinkled like an old lady, she almost swallowed her own tongue, and her body glowed even more!
It's thought energy.
This kind of monster meat has a nourishing effect. Under the delicious taste, Argo subconsciously opened the sperm pores all over his body to let the air flow, as if he had eaten luminous food!
One bite, two bites, three bites.
Swish, swish, swish.
Ten minutes later, Argo slumped down on the chair with a big belly.
"E-I can't eat anymore, hiccup~"
"How does it taste?" Ji Xing asked with a smile.
"...smells!" Argo finally failed to make any other comment without conscience.
"Is it all just the word "香"?" Ji Xing was dissatisfied: "Write me a 300-word review later, which will be my reward for cooking."
"..." Argo was stunned: "Are you a devil?! What the hell is that after-eating feeling?!"
"Didn't I tell you that the improvement of cooking skills requires more people's evaluation." Ji Xing said: "I can now make food that perfectly suits my own taste. In other words, many of the dishes I cook are good for me. All are 100 points.”
Beyond ordinary people's perception, the precise use of seasonings down to the last drop and milliseconds of heat control, coupled with the experience value display, after three months of deliberate practice, it is not surprising to achieve this.
"But due to different tastes and body constitutions, a dish that is perfect for me may only be 98 or even 95 for you, so I need you to carefully review the taste and help me improve."
Argo opened his mouth blankly.
Is this the world of super chefs?
I don’t understand, but it seems very powerful! Only with such an attitude of striving for excellence can we reach our current level, right? A chef over two meters tall...
Ji Xing continued: "The president can also introduce some acquaintances to make reservations with me. The rules are the same. Cooking is free. After you finish eating, write me a 300-word review. You can't fool around with things. In fact, words Lack does not matter. If you can point out real shortcomings, I will give him three more meals."
Are cooking skills useful?
It can be useful in certain circumstances and can also bring you enjoyment.
For example, if I had the cooking skills I have now in the Naruto world, I wouldn't have to shout about helping Goddess take care of the children. I would just say, "Goddess, I'll cook for you" and start getting along with each other from the stomach.
Argo calculated it briefly and felt that three hundred words were worth a lot in exchange for a meal from a special chef. He immediately agreed: "No problem, I will introduce you to a few friends."
After a pause, she took out two books from her arms with a slight pain: "I won't write about my after-eating this time. I didn't have time to savor it carefully just now. I'll give you these two books to read for three days." .
For three days, you are not allowed to show it to others, and you are not allowed to lose it. This is 100 million kels! ! "
Ji Xing didn't even need to read it to know that this was the basic and advanced chapters on telekinesis written by him.
While upgrading the 'teaching' skill level, I sorted out the knowledge of Nian ability from beginning to end, laying the foundation for creating 'Holy Light Nian', and also making some money on the way, killing three birds with one stone.
He pretended to be surprised and said: "What book is worth 100 million? President, where did you buy it?"
Argo curled his lips: "Although it's expensive, it's worth it. Damn it! Sure enough, people with skills can make more money. This should be written by the mysterious team that broke through the fourth floor alone. Just hurry up and read it, you will benefit a lot! "
"That's it..." Ji Xing smiled and said, "President, you should stay alone and study. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."
"...Huh? What? Asking you?!"
Ji Xing picked up the book, flipped through it, and handed it to Argo: "Look at the number of people left to read."
"...There are 9 people left, 9 people?!"
Argo was a little dumbfounded. The total number of people who could read was 10. I looked at it, and Ji Xing looked at it. Why was there still 9 people left? !
The next moment, a light bulb seemed to light up above her head, and she stood up suddenly, but fell back into the chair because of her big belly, staring at Ji Xing and said:
"You were recruited by the mysterious team?! You got this book a long time ago, and read it?!"
Yes, the innate strength of the fourth level, tall and strong, and a top-grade chef, such innate conditions have never appeared among players! That is to say, Ji Xing has not appeared in public, otherwise which guild would not be tempted by him?
Ji Xing made a hush gesture: "It's not much different. President, if the "mysterious team" sells intelligence through you in the future, do you dare to accept it?"
"... Accept it! Why not! If they dare to sell it, I dare to accept it!" Argo said firmly, and then tried to get close to Ji Xing, lowering his voice: "But the share must be negotiated first, and... when did you meet them?!"
...
At the same time, on the 46th floor of the Mysterious Tower, some special situations occurred in the Mysterious Research Society, which ranked third in the reputation of the Mysterious Tower and gathered a large number of scientific researchers.
Teams of players with neat steps, well-trained and obviously military appearance surrounded the research institute, and You Gu walked in with a gloomy face.
Just half an hour ago, he received news that the "correspondent" in charge of the research institute was missing.
The so-called correspondent refers to a special military player appointed by the military. Their task is not to conquer the mysterious tower, and they don't even have much free time to experience the different life in the mysterious tower. Most of the time they have to stay in the research institute, practice mindfulness to strengthen their memory, and then remember the experimental situation.
If an experiment produces a critical breakthrough, they must remember the key information and then send it to reality. As for the way to send information, of course, it is to "die out of the mysterious tower."
The things they touch are important, and they can endure loneliness. Obviously, the correspondents are elites carefully selected by the military.
Such a person "disappeared" and was suspected of defection. As a superior, You Gu must feel bad.
Seeing the head of the institute, a respected old professor of biology, he forced a smile and said, "Excuse me, Professor Suinin, can you tell me when was the last time you saw Doi Wanzi?"
"Two hours ago." The old professor's words made You Gu's expression even uglier: "We have just made a major breakthrough in our research. Wanzi is trying to memorize a piece of information. I was originally planning to contact you and let Wanzi prepare to return to the real world, but I didn't expect..."
You Gu gritted his teeth and whispered, "Do you think it's...'defection'? Impossible, Doi Wanzi's landing site is heavily guarded! Unless she doesn't plan to return to reality again! In addition, can you tell me what the major breakthrough you are talking about is?"
"The decoding of a longevity gene may extend the life of humans as a whole by five to ten years, but There are differences between the two worlds, who knows? "The old professor said in a relaxed tone: "Fortunately, the experimental data has not been damaged.
But there is one thing I have to remind General You Gu, the 'undead disease' that we carefully isolated and extracted has also disappeared, which may cause some trouble for you 'players'. "
"Undead disease? "
"You won't understand even if I tell you, just think of it as the undead disease virus. It is extracted to artificially cultivate the kind of 'resurrection grass' you need. As long as a specific ratio is found, it should be able to mutate the genes of ordinary weeds into resurrection grass.
After the grass transit, it can become a treasure, but if it is directly used on people or monsters, no one can resist it, and they will definitely be directly infected with the undead disease. "
You Gu wanted to curse instantly.
Why didn't you say so early that you were doing such a big thing? I sent more people to protect (guard) you!
After a long while, he squeezed out a sentence: "Thank you Professor Chui Ren for your reminder. "
