Chapter 664: Mind Power, Wish!

Ji Xing thought about many possibilities, but he didn't expect that Ai would run away when he saw him.

I don’t want my family anymore, I just made a wish and ran away.

There is no way to catch them, they have moved to nowhere in an instant.

After the threat of 'You don't want me to drain all the Sanyuan water' was ineffective, Ji Xing could only shake his head helplessly and actually took out the bucket to fill the water.

The thought energy turned into substance and was released. Without reaching out to touch, the Sanyuan Water was like a river in the sky, being rolled into three empty buckets and quickly filled.

It was returned to the inventory. Ji Xing didn't really make time for it, not to mention that in the Tower of Mystery, if he had time, he might finish it the next day. It was enough to leave some time for self-research, and it couldn't be a wasted trip.

"You are so timid. It seems that there is not much hope of catching one with your own hands. Fortunately, that girl Kiriko Asakura still has one in her body."

I need to be nice and talk to it.

…

On the other side, this strategy team meeting can be said to be very lively.

After initially feeling surprised and regretful about Kiriko's encounter, the mysterious coquettish wishing monster, and the death of Fujino Kazuki, during the discussion, I don't know who made the first suggestion - what if the wish was smaller?

Yes, Fujino Kazuchi had truly improved before his death, but perhaps his desire to become the strongest among players was too general, which led to him being overwhelmed. The amazing wishing energy of the wishing monster was also perceived by many people. However, its power in fulfilling wishes is absolutely beyond imagination.

What if we could make use of it and make a conditional wish to ‘increase our strength by one level’?

What about the future potential of overdrafts? In the current situation, there are many people who are willing to trade the future for the present and quickly reach the limit of their talents.

You Gu immediately said that he could select a volunteer from the army to try. If it was really feasible, everyone in the strategy team would have a share, and bad things would turn into good things, so that everyone's strength would soar!

Negishi Yoshiyuki and others were unwilling.

Kiriko is still unconscious. Although she seems to be just tired and lethargic, it is obvious that the wishing monster consumes her physical energy when it activates its ability.

Regardless of whether this suggestion comes to fruition or not, it will bring more unknown harm to Kiriko.

In the end, it was still a hidden danger left by the Demon-Sealing Thread incident. Some people said, "Yoshiyuki Negishi, who always contributes to the top bosses every time, must have at least four or five Demon-Sealing Threads in his hands. Even if Kiriko dies, in the future you will It can be saved, so what are you afraid of? ’

‘At worst, when our overdraft potential is improved, we will compensate you when we fight the boss. ’

Negishi Yoshiyuki had such a bad temper that he almost started a fight with him on the spot.

So at this moment, there was a commotion in the conference room. Some people supported Yoshiyuki Negishi, some felt that one Kiriko was not as important as the overall strategy, and some suggested finding a few more of these monsters to study.

Argo looked at those guys who claimed to be righteous and rhythmic with disgust - this kind of people are the most disgusting. It is obviously a harmonious and normal thing, but they want to stand on the moral high ground to criticize others and encourage other neutral parties to stand in line. , it seems that not taking sides means low quality.

Were they the same ones who asked the 'mysterious team' to hand over such a powerful secret last time?

Just when she was impatient, the beep of the communication crystal suddenly echoed. She lowered her head to check and saw that Ji Xing had sent her a text.

'The general rule of gas lifeforms - what resides in Kiroko's body is a strange life that is more dangerous than the immortal disease. Improper treatment may lead to the end of all players...'

Her eyes widened slightly, and she quickly read the rest of the text. Her heart was filled with waves, and she digested it on the spot for a long time before she came back to her senses.

Looking up and seeing that the argument was still going on, she thought about it for a moment, and then broadcast Ji Xing's communication crystal. Her face with a mustache suddenly showed an expression that was three parts sarcastic, three parts playful, and four parts mocking, and she patted it hard. Patted the table.

The banging sound caused silence in the conference room. She looked at the rhythmic guys and said: "Human greed is really terrible. People think about profit before they understand the situation. Aren't they afraid of making a deal with the devil and bringing about helplessness?" The ending?"

Several people on the other side were stunned for a moment, and then the leader, Kibaou, who had a strange hairstyle with five sharp corners, waved his hand impatiently: "This is an important decision to improve the strength of the entire strategy team. What are you saying to an intelligence player?" ?”

"Oops -" Argo crossed his arms: "No one said that when they bought information from me. Since you think that I am not qualified to talk to you as an intelligence player, then the next thing about the monster 'Ai' in Kiriko's body I won’t share the information with you for free. Please go out first. If you need it, remember to buy information from me later.”

Kibaou and others were stunned.

The other players in the strategy group also looked at him in astonishment.

"That thing is called 'E'?"

"Do you have information about it? Argo!" Negishi Yoshiyuki said excitedly.

"Nonsense!" Kibaou didn't believe it: "That's a new monster on the 51st floor. Only our strategy team can go there. Even if any of us have seen it, we won't sell information through you!"

"Hmph, do you think I, Argo the Rat, am an ordinary intelligence dealer? No one knows more about the secrets of the Mysterious Tower than me, and you can't even imagine how many informants I have!

The 51st floor is currently a place only the strategy team can go to, but don’t forget, who is the first person to arrive and explore the 51st floor? "

First? That mysterious team? !

After saying these words in a calm tone, Argo felt secretly happy when he saw everyone's shocked reactions and the shocked eyes that looked at him.

She had been waiting for this day since she was frightened by Ji Xing. It was really great to be a rat pretending to be powerful. My Treasure Rat Guild stood up!

She also waved her hand and said, "Go out quickly, don't waste everyone's time, or you can pay me 100 million cole for intelligence now, or you can stay and listen with everyone."

"You, you, you..." Ya Wang stuttered a few words and said angrily, "Are you going to join those guys to destroy the friendship of the strategy team?! Why don't they show up? They are playing tricks!"

"I didn't let them come." Argo smiled playfully, "It's to avoid destroying the friendship of the strategy team. You don't know yet, because you asked them to hand over the "powerful secret" last time, they were going to kill you in the wild without anyone noticing, and I stopped them."

Ya Wang's face turned green.

Argo continued, "Oh, by the way, they might be angry if I share the information with you for free. So for the sake of the strategy team, in order to avoid conflict with them, and for the strategy of the mysterious tower, you should get out quickly. The overall situation is important, right, everyone?"

Ya Wang felt that he was being morally kidnapped.

You Gu coughed twice: "In this case, Ya Wang, you guys go outside for a while?"

"... Humph!"

Watching the few people leave angrily, the strategy team players looked at each other and wanted to laugh.

"Argo, you are really awesome." Asuna praised directly.

Argo's small body was very tall. The 18-year-old girl was rich and generous. When Shijima Koharu, who was worried about Kiriko, asked, she let out her breath and stopped the aircraft exhibition.

"Well, let's talk about business first. E is very dangerous, especially the state of the one in Kiriko's body. It is already a situation that must be dealt with."

...

'The greater the wish, the more desires will accumulate in E's body, and they will be released as a disaster when he acts like a spoiled child next time. ’

‘Except for the first time, the content of Ai’s coquetry to Yujiru was just to ask for a piece of paper, a candy, and a glass of water, because the previous wish it fulfilled was just to give Yoshiyuki Negishi a hug. ’

‘But after Fujino Yi made a wish to become the strongest player, the desires accumulated in its body have reached a certain scale. The next coquetry is likely to be to ask for a heart or a brain, which is impossible to fulfill.

And if it is rejected four times, the person being coquettish will die on the spot, and according to the size of the desire, the people related to the person being coquettish will also be killed. ’

‘In other words, when Kiriko wakes up, if she coquettishly acts to Koharu, the result may be the annihilation of your team, and the death of Yujiru, Kirito and other friends! ’

Carrying the unconscious Kiriko on his back, recalling Argo’s story, Yoshiyuki Negishi couldn’t stop the fear in his heart, and he almost...

This creature is too scary.

The scary point is not the ability to fulfill wishes in the ‘conventional sense’, but the fact that the price is not paid back to the person who made the wish.

It is the next person to take over her coquetry, and the wisher will be more likely to lose control of his desire.

If you make a huge wish, the price to pay may be the annihilation of all players!

With such a big threat, naturally someone proposed to "clear" Wuzi. At this moment, Yoshiyuki Negishi was also glad that someone could solve it...

"Huh? This road on the 49th floor..."

At this time, Kodaisuke woke him up with a strange exclamation, and Yoshiyuki Negishi realized that they followed Argo and came to a familiar place unknowingly.

"Someone will guess this later, and he didn't want to hide it." Argo smiled and nodded: "Jixing is also a member of that team and my treasure hunting rat guild, serving as a liaison."

Several people were slightly surprised, thinking about Jixing's special ability of mind, exaggerated cooking skills, exaggerated figure, and exaggerated majesty of the dean...

It's not that surprising.

"Leave it to me, those guys don't want to see you, I'll carry Wuzi in." Argo said again.

Yoshiyuki Negishi, who had known about it for a long time, nodded: "Please, Argo!"

"Don't worry." Argo, who was carrying Wu Zi on his back, waved his hand calmly on the surface, hiding his inner expectation and nervousness - this is also the first time I have met the other members of that mysterious team.

Hold it, hold it, don't pretend to leak it!

Knocked on the door and entered Ji Xing's house. She saw Ji Xing sitting on the sofa not far away, motioning her to carry Wu Zi over. Argo closed the door, poked his head like a devil entering a village, and whispered:

"Are they in the bedroom?"

"Where are the others?" Ji Xing smiled.

"......Ah?" Argo was stunned, eyes widened, "Only you? Can you solve it? Then you are so secretive with me, I thought everyone in your team was here!"

"Isn't this to help you show off?" Ji Xing pointed to the communication crystal: "Prove that you have strong connections."

"What, what do you mean by show off..." Argo was a little embarrassed: "You said it so harshly, I just took advantage of the situation to hit a few annoying guys... Uh, this won't make your friends unhappy?"

"It's okay, keep working hard in the future." Ji Xing looked at Wu Zi who was placed on the sofa by her, smiled gently and said: "Come out, let's talk.

Of the five people in the legendary brave team, only you are attached to Wu Zi, and you didn't even show up when Eugene's team arrived nearby. There should be certain requirements for the object of possession, and a carrier like Wu Zi is probably not easy to find.

You don't want to die, and you don't want to give up, but you don't dare to act like a spoiled child to me, and you can't kill me even if you wish... Then you only have the choice of listening to my conditions."

Hmm? Argo blinked, and suddenly felt an indescribable aura on Ji Xing.

And this 'solution' seems to be different from what I imagined?

The next moment, Wu Zi's face changed, and the dark eye holes and black lips reappeared. The whole person became dark, sat up, and sat opposite Ji Xing with his hands on his knees.

"Are you willing to listen to my request?"

"Ai Yi - you can't bully me."

Argo: ? ? ?

Are we really negotiating?

"It's not too much, two choices." Ji Xing said with a gentle expression: "The first one, you leave Wu Zi's body and attach yourself to me, so..."

"Two, two, two, I want to listen to two!"

"..."

Ji Xing shook his head helplessly: "It has nothing to do with my attitude and thoughts. Is it innate to seek benefits and avoid harm for powerful lives? Then forget it."

"No, Ai, you have no desire-" Ai said in a calm tone.

"Oh, is that the reason? I see. I said I'm not that scary. But how can I not have desires? It's just that I'm not good enough and can't feel them." Ji Xing suddenly realized.

"Then the second condition is three requirements. First, you can stay in Asakura Kiriko's body, but you have to communicate with her. Just like her mind ability, you play the role of a 'mind beast' and can only appear when she agrees."

"Second, you can't answer super-standard wishes. The so-called super-standard is to make your next coquettish content become a level that the next person will definitely not be able to complete. You should understand. Including the previous wish of 'becoming the strongest player', you also have to clear it, should you be able to do it?"

"Third, give me a little bit of your ability to feel it, it will be done in a moment. This should be done as a wish, right?"

Argo was stunned. This is even more different from what was agreed, right? In the end, he didn't kill it, but left it? Is this okay? "Ji Xing, you..."

"It's okay, it's a good thing." Ji Xing smiled and said, "Although I acted a little bit on my own, I have already become the head of the players. It's not too much to make this decision for the reason of 'for their own good'."

What head of the family? For whose good?

After a moment of silence, Ai dragged out his voice and seemed a little unhappy: "Okay--"

If it had known that Ji Xing was the 'strongest player', it would not have possessed the mist. It could feel that Ji Xing had the ability to kill it. With wisdom, it had no better choice.

A ray of light penetrated into Ji Xing's body.

Ji Xing closed his eyes slightly to sense.

Ai has two states. One is pure, accumulating emotions by acting like a spoiled child.

Then it exchanges emotions for desires, turns into a carrier of desires, and releases desires wantonly through destruction and destruction, returning to purity.

To complete the most powerful promise with the purest oath, Ji Xing doubted that the founder of the concept had referenced Ai's life form.

Pure, clean.

I also want to be clean.

Under the gaze of the confused Argo, Ji Xing, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly became ethereal at this moment. The whole person seemed to fade away, and the expression on her face was so relaxed that she seemed to be able to throw away all her worries just by looking at it!

When Ji Xing opened her eyes, this feeling disappeared. She called out again with some anxiety: "Ji Xing? Are you... okay?"

"No, I'm fine." Ji Xing smiled and said: "I just realized a new mind ability."

Mind ability (wish): Excellent (level 1) (500/1000)

In some fairy tales, Buddhism has the saying of making great wishes, and the ability created by Ji Xing at this moment is a quick version of making great wishes!

Make a wish for yourself, and all the abilities used to fulfill this wish will be improved, and all other abilities will be reduced!

For example, in the battle with Toguro, if Ji Xing makes a wish to "kill Toguro", then his strength will be increased by 50%, then other cooking, forging and other abilities will be reduced by 5%, until Ji Xing completes his wish, and then they will all be restored.

It seems that the cost is very low, but in fact there is a big risk. Wishes cannot be reset. If they are not completed, they will continue to accumulate on the body.

If Toguro-ni is not killed, Ji Xing will only get a 50% increase in strength when fighting Toguro-ni, and the negative, all-round 5% weakening will be permanently with him!

Like Ai, making steady wishes, this kind of mind ability is a magical skill. Making a wish beyond the standard will bring great disaster to oneself!

So first...

"Upgrade the wishing mind ability (human)! The efficiency of practicing the mind ability (human) is increased by 50%, and all other aspects are weakened by 5%!"

In an instant, Ji Xing's mind was slightly obscured, but the mind ability (human) was particularly clear in his mind and body, bursting!

The vast mind power expanded around him, and instantly turned into a beam of light and rushed out of his house!

Outside the courtyard, the anxiously waiting Negishi Yoshiyuki and the other four looked at each other in shock, coming again? !

Only Argo knew that this time the incomprehensible magnanimity came from Ji Xing! Was it Ai's help? No, that's not right. Ji Xing was weird from beginning to end today. This guy, this guy? !

The intelligence analysis ability was fully operational.

The brain had a slight malfunction and smoke was coming out.

"You, you, you..." When the surging and exciting thoughts turned around, she stared at Ji Xing and couldn't stop stuttering: "Are you the real person?!"

Ji Xing raised his eyebrows: "Of course, there has never been any mysterious team, only me, President."

The ability to pretend, KO!

Argo's worldview has been refreshed. Didn't I watch you enter the mysterious tower? !

Ji Xing opened the information bar and smiled with satisfaction - Nen ability (human): Extreme (level 10) (full level) → (level 11) (???)

The limit of human beings, my limit, how can the attributes of the mysterious tower judge it? !
