Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

Chapter 214 Summoning the Spiritual Audience (Two in One)

From another dead and silent world, there was a gust of "woo" wind, and amidst the gray mist, a giant blue head was slowly outlined in the void.

The face of the head was thick, and the skin was like a dead man's wax model, bloodless.It has a pair of ears that are as big as cattail fans, and two dazzling silver hooks are made into the shape of earrings, which pass through the earlobe and are clanged by the wind.On the bald head, there are six red dots, like a monk.

With the broad nose and the thick flesh on the face, the expression is solemn and the treasure looks solemn, it really looks like a Buddha statue.

However, the face of this Buddha statue has only one head hanging in the air, and its skin is as blue as the death of a dead man. It is completely unreminiscent of Buddha, but looks like an evil ghost with a green face and fangs.

Chen Ye finished playing the whole song, put down the suona in his hand, groped his chin, and carefully observed the audience that was summoned today.

This half-hanging head stared at him with eyes as big as copper bells, but its face was dull, its eyes were blurred, and it didn't express anything at all.

"Is this the common situation in summoning the spirit world?" Chen Ye's mouth twitched.

He observed the energy aura of this head, the luster was dim, dense fog filled, not as strong as the feather string.

Whether they have complete self-awareness is still unknown.

At this moment, bloody characters gradually appeared near the head——

[Monk, the musty, sour smell of sweat, the smell of death... the whole body stinks! 】

[Only there is no smell of copper. 】

[The front is compassionate like a Buddha, the back is ferocious like a devil...]

"Buddha? Is it related to the copy of Leiyin Temple? This is a high-sequence existence..."

Chen Ye's mind moved slightly, and he roughly guessed the background identity of this head from the bloody text.

Among the more difficult dungeons in the later period, there is a [Da Leiyin Temple] dungeon with a difficulty factor of S+, which has a deep relationship with the characteristics related to "Buddha".

But in fact, the so-called Buddha is actually the twin form of a high-sequence [demon].

One thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a devil.

This head seems to have very low energy, but if it can have a relationship with the [Buddha and Demon Twin Aspect] in the later stage of [Demon], it will not be that simple.

Of course, this head is not complete, and to achieve [Buddha and Demon Twin Aspects], it is already a demon after four turns, and it is likely to incorporate the characteristics of [Thousand-faced Buddha].

However... this head may only be one of the faces of the [Thousand-faced Buddha], so it does not have a complete "self-awareness".

I thought I could summon that rich woman again...

Unexpectedly, it was only a monk who came.

The bloody text has already been introduced...

The monk's body smelled of everything, except the smell of copper.

You were so poor during your lifetime, do you expect to have anything to search for after your death?
But no matter what, the performance fee still has to be paid, right?
Chen Ye played the erhu, and passed on the idea of ​​asking for fees with spiritual power.

The giant head paused for a moment, then suddenly opened its mouth, and with a groan, it spit out something!
A yellowed scroll was actually "pulled" out of the giant head's mouth like ramen, accompanied by the stench of old decay, blowing towards the face.

Chen Ye was a little dumbfounded.

I waited for a long time, but in the end, the performance fee is all these "pull" things?
At this moment, bloody text gradually appeared around the scroll——

[The sealed scroll is a relic from 300 years ago, and there will be a day when it will be seen again? 】

[It's a pity that the Buddha nature is all scattered and empty, it's just broken copper and rotten iron. 】

[However, as part of the remains of the relic, if it is used as a material, there is a possibility of turning decay into magic...]

After spitting out the scroll, the head suddenly turned into a cloud of gray mist, passed through the whirlpool-shaped gate, and disappeared.

Only the yellowed and wrinkled scrolls on the ground were left, quietly placed.

"A relic from 300 years ago?"

This familiar word caught Chen Ye's attention. With a thought, he picked up the scroll.

The scroll is already very worn out, and the words on it have long been obliterated.

Judging from the material of the paper, it should be the talisman paper commonly used in temples, but the age has passed, and the Buddha nature has long since dissipated, leaving only a decayed atmosphere.

Chen Ye opened the pupil of luck, and took a closer look...

At this moment, the scroll actually split into a weak long bridge of purple air, connecting one of the glazed stars around the halo of luck.

The pupils reflected brilliantly, and Chen Ye immediately made an analysis of this halo of luck:

"Liuli, related to special items."

"At the current stage, the entire City of Destiny has many opportunities to obtain characteristic items."

"The scroll is combined with the long bridge of purple energy and the glazed stars... Does that mean that if you have the help of a noble person, you can make this scroll into a special item?"

"correct!"

"Tang Wu has been promoted to [Apocalypse Builder], and his [Wanhua Blueprint] seems to have a lot of relic making methods?"

"Perhaps, I can take the scroll and ask Tang Wu if it can be made into a special prop?"

According to the hint given by [Scarlet Research], this scroll is a relic from 300 years ago, and this critical time point has repeatedly appeared.

It seems that with 300 years as the boundary, different eras have been differentiated.

Therefore, since this scroll is a relic, and the reminder also said that there is a possibility of "turning decay into magic", it means that there is still value to be excavated.

Thinking of this, Chen Ye immediately put away the scroll and prepared to go out to the Manufacturing Association.

Putting on the tattered clothes of the homeless, Chen Ye's face suddenly seemed to have countless worms crawling inside, protruding in patches, wriggling and changing, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into another face.

A plain face.

Before, I used this face to meet Matthew, Tang Wu and others.

In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings when they meet, Chen Ye intends to meet in the old way.

After getting ready, he came and walked outside the door, locked the door of Chengxin Restaurant, put up a small wooden sign saying "Closed for business", and then left.

When he left, there seemed to be a shadow flashing inadvertently beside him...

…………

When Chen Ye came to the pedestrian street, people gradually appeared on the road shrouded in white mist.

Most of the passers-by were wearing ordinary tracksuits.

A small number of employees in the workplace wearing suits have extraordinary temperament, walk with style, and look like successful people.

Occasionally, some players in fancy clothes can be seen, which seem to have a good status symbol.

Chen Yu glanced at it lightly, and when his eyes fell on the heads of passers-by, a vocabulary composed of bloody characters gradually appeared——

【Chef Apprentice】

[dress designer]

【Gluttony】

【sculptor】

Each of these identity plates seemed to present the passing existences and their corresponding occupations in Chen Ye's vision for the first time.

"The talent of [Scarlet Research] this month is really useful!" Chen Ye said with emotion in his heart.

You know, being able to know the identity of the opponent at a glance before a battle is an ability comparable to top information professions in the strange era!
After coming to reality... this ability is even more important!
Minke Street, who fought the most fiercely in the encounter, used this month's combat experience to tell all players——

"The player civil war in the Weird Era is essentially an information war."

The more fully you understand the enemy and make targeted preparations, the greater your chances of winning.

Possessing the talent of [Scarlet Research], one can see the professional identity of the enemy player at a glance, which is almost like watching the opponent's clear cards to play.

"We must try our best to get the first place in the list, and keep the exclusive talent of [Scarlet Research]!"

Unlocking the two talents [Scarlet Research] and [Aura of Luck] at the same time, Chen Ye was almost full in terms of information.

In the weird world, the most dangerous thing is often the unknown.

In contrast, the most valuable ability is naturally the intelligence means to obtain unknown information.

As Chen Ye concentrated his thoughts, the bloody information box on the player's head would change...

[A crumb chef who beats dogs with meat buns! 】

[A sculptor with rough craftsmanship, thanks to him, he can still open a shop? 】

[The sad and depressed praise singer, with the most underworld emphasis, sings the positive song. 】

【…】

Looking at the lines of bloody text, sometimes, Chen Ye wondered if this guy had a tongue with a hedgehog shell?
Talking is barbed!

It seems that as long as you don't find fault with a word, you will feel uncomfortable all over.

and……

Continuing to study the blood characters, Chen Ye found that it would only give commentary statements.

The tone of voice is a bit biased towards making sharp evaluations on certain aspects.

Under normal circumstances, most of these reviews are spam, and it is almost difficult to give valuable comments except that the job is a bit useful at the beginning.

When Chen Ye looked away from passers-by and landed on the shops on both sides, he could still get relevant descriptions.

[Closed store]... This store has been abandoned, and the title deed has disappeared, and the real estate inside may have lost its value.

[Shop for Fishing]... The shop was signed by Hua Shao and rented out to players who are sheltering from the rain.Of course, many players do not have business characteristics or professional status, so they can only stay in it and sleep.

[Passionate shop]...The curtains of the shop are closed tightly, and from the blurry halo revealed inside, two or even three or four figures can be seen, as if they are trying different postures and doing wrestling exercises.

When Chen Ye passed by [Passionate Store], he could faintly hear the joyous sounds from the party by the river, and he couldn't help feeling secretly:
"The riverside party will never go out of fashion, it just changed to a more suitable place."

Of course, occasionally you can see some shops that are open on the side of the pedestrian street.

[Halal barbecue restaurant, the barbecue is made of vegetarian food, the appearance is first-class, and the taste is not even eaten by dogs! 】

[Fashion clothing store, the clothes inside even Grandma Wolf thinks they are outdated. 】

【Horror Paradise, it's really fun, because it's killing your life! 】

For the shops that are open, the comments given by [Scarlet Research] seem to be longer.

"It's a pity that these shops have no pollution attribute, otherwise they might be able to absorb them."

Chen Ye couldn't help sighing, feeling a pity that he couldn't rely on the characteristics of [Parasitic Title Deed] to occupy more shops around him.

At this moment, he passed by a [unlucky shop], and the bloody text in the information box suddenly changed.

【Heh, what an unlucky guy who rented this shop. He actually became a neighbor with a dirty thing. Can a coward sleep well? 】

boom!
At this moment, the door of [unlucky shop] was suddenly knocked open!

The shop owner who rushed out from inside was a young and beautiful woman, who looked to be in her early 20s, disheveled and wearing loose pajamas, at this moment she rushed out of the door almost rolling and bumping.

There was panic on her face, she seemed to have seen something terrible, she didn't even have time to put on her shoes, and ran to the street as if she was fleeing, as if she needed help.

At this time, the plain white feet stepped on the muddy road after the rain, the soles of the feet were dyed pitch black, and the insteps were stained with a few drops of sewage flowing.

The woman's eyes were haggard, she turned her head suddenly, and met the eyes of Chen Ye who was passing by, as if she didn't expect anyone nearby, her face froze, a little embarrassed.

"Is there anyone in need of help?" Chen Ye asked gently.

"No... no..." The woman smiled reluctantly, "It was just a nightmare."

Chen Ye moved his eyes up inadvertently, and saw her identity information——

【Dreamweaver】

The moon department, a half-step second-rank job related to nightmares, has the ability to control dreams, but it turns out to have nightmares?
Chen Ye rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

However, the woman was terrified. Seeing Chen Ye was more frightening than seeing a ghost. She hurried back to the shop and closed the shop door tightly with a bang.

He stared at the back of the other party's closed door, and saw the thick, dark yellow that blended with the entire shop, but darkness was dormant around it.

The sign hanging on the eaves reads——

【Insomnia Treatment Clinic】

"Ma'am, you can't sleep well, are you sure you can cure insomnia?"

Chen Ye complained silently, glanced around, and observed the surroundings.

This is a very small shop, with an estimated area of ​​only a dozen square meters. The neighboring shops on both sides are all made of cheap iron sheets and made of old-fashioned doors that push up and down. The bloody text only gives a simple description——

【Closed shop】

Among them, Chen Ye saw a shop with faint ink traces, surrounded by gray mist, hidden in the closed shop adjacent to the woman.

Chen Ye took a few steps forward, and he seemed to have sensed the black mark, and fled away quickly.

"Afraid?"

Looking at the blackness in the shop, which was shrouded in white mist again, Chen Ye frowned slightly, realizing that things here were not simple.

In addition to the jet black, the moving gray air mass was actually what Chen Ye cared about the most.

It seems to have "self-awareness" and the instinct to "seek advantages and avoid disadvantages". When Chen Ye approaches, he immediately chooses to run away.

Combined with the young woman's aura of luck, this thing will also cause some bad effects.

Chen Ye didn't take any unnecessary actions, so as not to startle the snake.

He walked to the door of the woman's shop, knocked three times politely, and before the other party opened the door to respond, he said directly outside the door:

"If you need help, you can go to the No. [-] shop on West Street Third Road and find an honest restaurant."

After leaving this sentence, Chen Ye left without looking back.
