Cataclysm King

Chapter 33 [Secret Cause Psychic]

"Old Miracle. What is this?"

Ji Xun immediately became alert.

Obviously, there are some mysterious existences hidden under the surface in this cellar!

He is always paying attention to his attribute panel, and if there is anything wrong, he is ready to evacuate immediately.

But after careful observation for a while, it seems that there is no danger.

[JOKER] There is an attribute in the entry of the trickster, he has a chance to understand the whisper of the devil.

It seems that after staying in the cellar for a long time now, I heard the whispers of the devil like tinnitus a lot, and got enlightened.

Also made him understand some meanings: sacrifice, pleasure, faith, ancient gods
Not vocabulary, but an indescribable cognitive endowment that seems to point to something beyond human comprehension.

miracle?

Ji Xun thought about it.

But although I didn't understand what it was that couldn't be described, the phenomenon that can be manifested is: spiritual pollution.

No wonder my head was buzzing all the time.

Ji Xun thought of something, reached out and touched the [Joker's Vientiane Mask] card in the interlayer of his trouser pocket, and murmured: "Solution!"

The mask has the resistance to immunity from all kinds of mysterious powers. Since it is spiritual pollution, this mask is useful.

As soon as he put on this ancient relic, he immediately felt that the sensory world was clear.

And there was and new discovery at once.

"Sure enough, there's something hidden."

Without the interference of indescribable external factors, Ji Xun looked at the cellar immediately differently.

It seems that the blur filter has been removed, and in the field of vision, the dark energy on the corpses seems to be drawn by a mysterious force and gathered on an inconspicuous wall brick.

Ji Xun walked over, looking at the brick in front of him that he hadn't noticed before.

Because cognition exists, it manifests itself.

This fixed the eye and gained enlightenment.

【Secret psychic medium】

Detailed explanation: An energy condensate containing powerful dark and extraordinary characteristics, a spiritual medium that touches the miracles of the past; flesh and blood are evil materials, with a very meager divinity;
"Is this still a Transcendent material?"

Although Ji Xun didn't know what the amber-like thing in front of him was, he could see the terrifying extraordinary characteristics.

If the energy unit of the out-of-control extraordinary characteristics overflowing from these corpses is 1, it is like a star; then Ji Xun feels that this dark amber substance is at least 100, as bright as the moon!
What surprised him even more was that the extraordinary properties of this thing seemed to be able to devour it directly?
Ji Xun looked at the extraordinary characteristics that were also overflowing, and wondered whether [Feast] could be used.

Thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and touched it carefully.

Then, as if he had discovered a new continent, his expression froze.

The extraordinary characteristics poured into the body.

"You used the feast to devour, your physique +0.021"

"You used Feast Devour, Strength +0.018"

"You used Feast Devour, Toughness +0.009"

"You used a feast to devour, dark affinity +0.04"

"."

"It's really good!"

Ji Xun looked at his changing and rising values, and his eyes lit up instantly.

Big surprise!

This exaggerated efficiency was dozens of times steeper than any corpse he had devoured before.

The purity and richness of the extraordinary characteristics are something Ji Xun has never seen before!

He looked at the changes in the data after the swallowing, and made a rough calculation. If he really wanted to swallow this piece, the attributes such as strength, agility, and constitution would most likely exceed 3.

What is the concept that almost all attributes are more than three times what they are now?
Physical combat power may be more than ten times that of now!
This is definitely a treasure that can bring a leap in his strength.

"Good stuff."

Ji Xun turned his head, and it was the first time he encountered such a strange and evil supernatural being.

But poison can also cure diseases. This thing is evil to others, but to him, it is a great remedy.

Seeing this psychic, he now understood what was going on with these corpses.

The corpses in these cellars seem to be some kind of evil ritual, and then the ritual gathered extraordinary characteristics and condensed into this [secret cause psychic].

But I don't know why they were discovered by the company's field agents, and they fled in a hurry before they could take away the things.

I don't know who arranged this ceremony, so there's no need to guess, it's obviously not a good thing to use living people to sacrifice.

Probably some evil wizard, or the sect of the Outer Gods.

So taking this piece of [Secret Cause Psychic] will inevitably involve big troubles.

At this moment, the crime and disorder in the city of innocence seemed to be peeked into a corner.

but.
big trouble?
No, no, no.

Ji Xun never considered this in his mind from the beginning to the end.

Ever since he discovered that this thing's supernatural ability can devour him, his thoughts have already deduced all kinds of risks he will face after taking away this psychic medium.

The cellar had already been searched, and the two men in suits outside obviously didn't know it was there, and they wouldn't know it if it was taken away.

Not long after the corpse died, the cellar should have been raided, and the psychic hadn't been transferred in time.

And if the person who arranged the ceremony is not dead, then he must know.

When he came back and found that the things were gone, the first thing he thought of was that the field agents of the Golden Oak Security Company had taken them away.

If "that person" had a way to confirm that the company's field workers didn't take anything, they would definitely turn their suspicions to the body collector.

A series of causal plots were deduced in Ji Xun's mind.

But it's not that big of a problem.

He needs this [Secret Cause Psychic] not for sale, nor as a collectible.

After all, catching thieves and catching dirt.

If this thing is absorbed, won't there be no evidence in the end?

The only wild card is that it will take some time to absorb.

There are definitely risks.

But compared to the harvest, it is definitely worth the risk!
The thoughts in Ji Xun's mind made a decision almost in a moment.

Not far away, Gibb was still seriously handling the corpse under the dim light, and didn't pay attention to this side.

There is no psychological burden at all to take away such evil material.

When Ji Xun thought about it, he didn't hesitate.

He carefully removed the piece of [Secret Cause Spiritual Medium], and then quietly stuffed it into the abdomen of a corpse, hiding it in the flesh and blood tissue.

Usually, no one will touch these corpses before they are burned, and things will be safe in the corpses.

Everything about the collection of corpses will be done step by step.

The three corpse collectors upstairs in Dongjiu had no intention of going down to the cellar to help. Ji Xun and Jibu were busy disposing of the sixteen corpses.

After working for more than half an hour, the sixteen body bags were moved upstairs one after another.

Captain Dong Jiu greeted everyone, "Alright, let's call it a day!"

Hearing this, the two men in suits who had been guarding the door also walked in.

Seeing that there were a total of eighteen corpses on the ground, they also opened the body bag to check.

Ji Xun thought he passed the test smoothly, but at this moment, the white-faced man in a suit suddenly took out an antique camera, and casually said, "I'll take a picture of the scene."

Before a few people could react, he clicked the switch towards several corpse collectors in the room.

"Pfft~"

The spotlight illuminates the dazzling light and white smoke, making people blind for a moment.

What's even more strange is that the moment the fire was lit, the whole room seemed to be swept by some mysterious force.

The soul is floating.

In this strange state, a white-faced man in a suit asked in a low voice beside his ears: "Did you find any abnormalities during the process of collecting the corpses?"

The three of Dongjiu and Ji Buqiqi shook their heads, and replied as if hypnotized: "No."

On the side of the crowd, Ji Xun looked at the same expression as the other four, and responded na na.

But he muttered in his heart: "It's really coming!"

When he came up just now, in order to keep the piece of [Secret Cause Psychic] hidden, he had already guessed that he might encounter some situations.

Like hypnosis.

So when he came up, he put on a clown mask.

Didn't expect to come across this one.

But the enlightenment has already shown what happened just now: "You are exempted from a memory tampering."

The mask plus the [JOKER] trickster entry can exempt all cognitive tampering that is not higher than the imprint rule.

Prepared to strike right.

Hearing this, the white-faced man in a suit didn't pay attention at all, and took out a photo-like card from the camera and shook it.

It seemed that some of the memories of the corpse collectors had been pulled out by this photo.

They searched it once, and they didn't think they left anything.

Interviews are just routine.

The white-faced man was already very proficient in this procedure. After asking the question, he said another sentence with a strong psychological hint: "You just collected some ordinary corpses, and forgot the details in the cellar. There is nothing worth remembering."

As soon as these words came out, there seemed to be some magical power, the expressions of the corpse collectors obviously froze for a moment, and they nodded as if absent-minded.

After the white smoke from the spotlight gradually dissipated, the eyes of the few people gradually focused.

Ji Xun's professional performance did not let anyone see the flaws.

Erase memory?

Seems like a necessary secrecy procedure for these field agents.

After thinking about it for a while, Ji Xun also felt that he could understand.

Because of their professional nature, corpse collectors often come into contact with corpses and murder scenes.Among them are some sensitive events.But if even this low-level temporary worker knows about some top-secret events, then the whole city may know about it.

It is also normal to have a confidentiality procedure.

He just didn't expect that there is such a magical method of "camera tampering with memory" in this world.

After taking the photo, the bearded man had no interest in staying in this shabby house at all, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you guys take the corpse away."

Captain Dong Jiu also seemed to have no memory of what happened after the photo was taken just now, and said with a smile: "Captain Lu, let's go first."

Field agents are established by a formal company, which is not comparable to temporary workers like corpse collectors.But Dongjiu has already submitted an application for field work, and he might become a colleague in the future, so naturally he has to get acquainted in advance.

Ji Xun played his role as a qualified young man throughout the whole process, helping to carry all eighteen corpses onto the truck.

After getting into the car, the Dongjiu people seemed to have recovered from that abnormal mental state.

Dongjiu has the seventh stage of spell power, and he is the person with the strongest manpower for collecting corpses. He seemed to have noticed something, and murmured to himself, "It's strange, I seem to have forgotten something. Did you forget to take something away?"

As if something has been done in the memory, but there is no impression at all in a blink of an eye.

The others have completely forgotten.

No one took it seriously.

The steam wagon carrying the corpses sped along the streets.

In the carriage, Ji Xun was silent.

After going through this incident, he realized that the water in Innocence City was deeper than he saw.

And the profession of corpse collector is not as ordinary as it seems.

Before, he wondered why he hadn't heard Dongjiu and his old employees say that they had encountered any bizarre missions when they came into contact with so many corpses and murders every day.

Now it seems that maybe not.

It's that they've already dealt with this kind of bizarre incident, they just don't remember it.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun's eyes darkened, and he suddenly felt that this job was getting more and more interesting.
