I'm not a psychopath!
Chapter 232 Testing
However, at this moment, Luo Shui's body stabilized, and the flickering and transparent phenomenon disappeared. She took a few deep breaths and slowly calmed her emotions.
"I... I'm fine." Luo Shui's voice was weak, but with a hint of firmness, "Just now I did feel the power of assimilation, but it seemed that because I kept my mind in time, it failed to succeed."
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this. Jiang Qing held Luo Shui's shoulders tightly and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the assimilation power of this world has a lot to do with our mental state. The more we doubt ourselves and the more fearful we are, the more susceptible we are to assimilation."
"Then, we must not waver in any way." Bailiye said, with a firm light flashing in her eyes, "We must believe in our existence, stick to our will, and never let this world succeed."
Qin Xiaosui also clenched her fists. Although her face was still a little pale, her voice was full of determination: "Yes, we can't be controlled by this world."
Giving yourself psychological hints in advance is also a skill learned in the training camp before.
…
Due to the assimilation crisis that had just occurred, the atmosphere in the camp was extremely tense.
Everyone was trying to maintain a stable mind, fearing that they would become the next target of assimilation.
Jiang Qing sighed. Such an atmosphere was not conducive to combat, but he could not blame them. It was really that the assimilation phenomenon was too strange.
It was late at night.
A crescent moon hung in the sky, and the silvery moonlight shone through the sparse clouds and sprinkled in the quiet forest.
Jiang Qing and his teammates took a temporary rest under a towering tree. After days of running around and planning, everyone looked a little tired.
Jiang Qing leaned against the trunk of the tree, closed his eyes, and tried to recover some physical strength and spirit in a short rest.
Apart from the occasional chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the night wind, there was a quietness all around.
However, in this quietness, an unusual wave quietly approached.
An arrow suddenly shot out from the darkness, and the tip of the arrow flashed coldly in the moonlight, aiming at Jiang Qing's eyebrows.
The arrow was shot silently, as if the air was not disturbed. It was obviously done by a master. A sealed letter was tied to the tail of the arrow.
Just when the arrow was about to touch Jiang Qing, two fingers suddenly appeared like a phantom and clamped the arrow shaft steadily.
Jiang Qing opened his eyes. The cold light of the arrow tip was reflected in his pupils. The strength between his fingers was just right. He neither let the arrow move forward nor let it break due to excessive force.
His eyes slowly moved from the tip of the arrow to the letter at the tail of the arrow. He had guessed its origin in his heart.
With this technique and this precise control, he couldn't think of anyone else who would pass on the message to him at this time except Jun Wudao.
Jiang Qing gently took the letter, and the arrow was thrown by him casually and sank into the tree trunk next to him. The tail of the arrow trembled slightly and made a low buzzing sound.
He carefully opened the letter. Under the moonlight, the handwriting on the letter paper was clearly visible:
Brother Jiang Qing, I am writing to you.
I have known what you are planning, and I feel that this plan is very good. I have also noticed the matter of the monster clones. Their behavior is very different from the past, and it is indeed abnormal.
I am willing to join hands with you to kill this harm.
Tomorrow at noon, we will meet in the Broken Soul Valley to discuss the big plan.
Written by Jun Wudao.
"Tsk, you still talk in a set of ways." He complained casually. To this day, he still didn't understand why Jun Wudao wanted to join the monster tribe.
And he became the leader of the monster tribe.
"The world is unpredictable."
After reading the letter, Jiang Qing's eyes flashed with a gleam.
He knew that the arrival of this letter meant that their cooperation with the monster mirror clones had taken the first step.
He immediately woke up the teammates who were resting, told them the content of the letter, and began to discuss tomorrow's action plan.
Everyone sat around the campfire, with serious expressions on their faces.
They knew that every step forward was crucial and might affect the fate of the entire human race.
After some discussion, they decided to act according to Jun Wudao's proposal, and at the same time, they had to be prepared in case of any accidents.
Under the cover of night, Jiang Qing and others began to make final preparations for the upcoming meeting.
They checked their equipment to ensure that each weapon was in the best condition, and at the same time, they silently recited their own spells and tactics in their hearts to ensure that they could exert their maximum combat effectiveness at the critical moment.
As he was thinking about how to implement this action, suddenly, a black shadow passed by the camp at a very fast speed, looming, and almost blended into the night.
Jiang Qing's eyes condensed, knowing that the timing of the black shadow's appearance was too coincidental, and it might be related to their current situation.
He quickly said to his teammates: "Stay where you are, I'll go and see."
His figure was like a light smoke, quietly chasing after him.
Jiang Qing's body movements were extremely clever. Even in the dense forest, he was like walking on flat ground, and every step just avoided possible traps.
The shadow seemed to realize that someone was following it, and its speed suddenly increased, but Jiang Qing was not thrown off. He followed the shadow closely, and the two of them were one after the other in the night, like a silent chase game.
As the chase progressed, Jiang Qing gradually discovered that the shadow's movement trajectory was not without rules, and it seemed to be intentionally guiding him to a certain place.
Jiang Qing's heart moved. He did not directly expose the black shadow's intention, but chose to continue following, wanting to see what the black shadow wanted to do.
Soon, the black shadow came to a hidden valley, which was surrounded by mountains and had only a narrow passage to enter. It was a natural hidden place.
After the black shadow entered the valley, it disappeared.
Jiang Qing stood at the entrance of the valley, with a gleam of light in his eyes. He was not in a hurry to enter, but first carefully explored the surroundings. After confirming that there was no ambush, he walked in carefully.
The space inside the valley is not small, with an open space in the center and some huge rocks scattered around.
In the middle of the open space, there is a stone platform with some strange magic circle symbols on it, which seems to be used to transmit information.
Jiang Qing walked up and carefully observed the symbols. He found that they were somewhat similar to the talismans given to him by the demon warriors before, which made him have some guesses in his heart.
He reached out and gently touched the symbols, and felt a stream of information pouring into his mind. It was a message from Jun Wudao.
The general meaning is that the letter received before is fake, and he is the real Jun Wudao.
At the same time, Jun Wudao also revealed an important information. They also found some abnormalities within the demon tribe. The behavior of some demon warriors began to become strange, as if they were controlled by some force.
After reading the information, Jiang Qing's eyes flashed with a trace of determination.
He knew that this battle of destiny had become more and more complicated. They must be more cautious and act quickly.
As the night deepened, the forest regained its tranquility again, but under this tranquility, an undercurrent was surging, foreshadowing the coming storm...
He immediately returned to the camp, informed his teammates of Jun Wudao's information, and discussed the next action plan with them. Everyone sat around the campfire, with a serious look on their faces.
Then Jiang Qing returned to the camp, his steps were steady and fast, with a hint of solemnity on his face.
After arriving at the camp, he did not delay at all, and immediately summoned all his teammates, and told everyone in detail about the information found in the valley and Jun Wudao's letter.
Beside the campfire, faces that were slightly tired from days of hard work were illuminated by the firelight. They listened to Jiang Qing's narration, and their eyes flashed with thought from time to time.
When Jiang Qing mentioned that both the clone and the original body were seeking to cooperate with them, the atmosphere in the camp suddenly became a little subtle.
"In other words, both the real and the fake have come to us?" Shen Chengxian broke the silence, with a subtle tremor in his voice. Obviously, this news was too shocking for him.
"Yeah." Jiang Qing nodded, his voice was calm and firm, "They are all afraid, because both the clone and the original body are equally strong. If we are added, the balance will be broken."
"Can you tell which side is real?" Luo Shui asked in a deep voice, with a vigilant light flashing in her eyes. Obviously, this question is crucial to their next action.
Jiang Qing frowned slightly, he knew that the answer to this question was not easy to get.
He looked around at his teammates, then slowly said: "From the current situation, we can't be sure which one is the real body.
The clones and the body may not be much different in strength, but their behavior patterns and choices may be different."
"Since the clones are made up of the energy of this world, they may be more affected by the consciousness of this world, and their goal is to replace the body.
Unlike some demon warriors, they are willing to self-destruct to achieve their goals.
That is to say, the clones are more careful about their lives.
But this is the way to judge ordinary demon warriors, and it may not be applicable to Jun Wudao. I don't think he is not careful about his life.
So there is only one way to judge the truth, assimilation, but we have not seen assimilation in the clones so far, because the clones are originally transformed by the will of this world." Jiang Qing analyzed.
Qin Xiaosui clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit: "In other words, we have to make the real Jun Wudao doubt his identity, so that we can see the truth."
"Yes, and we can't wait passively, we have to take the initiative." Jiang Qing nodded in agreement, "At the same time, we must be prepared just in case.
If the clone and the original body join forces to deal with us, we must have enough strength to deal with it."
Yaoguang gently stroked the star longbow in her hand, looked at Jiang Qing who was strategizing, and did not speak, her eyes revealed a firmness.
The night was getting darker and darker, and the discussion in the camp gradually subsided.
...
Under the command of Jiang Qing, the team decided to split into two groups and adopt a two-pronged strategy.
One group went to Broken Soul Valley to meet Jun Wudao, and the other group went to Wujiyuan to talk with another demon leader who also called himself Jun Wudao.
Their goal is to judge the truth and stabilize the situation first.
Led by Jiang Qing himself, there are four people including Qin Xiaosui, Yaoguang, and Luo Hua.
They passed through dense forests, climbed steep mountains, and finally arrived at the Broken Soul Valley at the agreed time.
The Broken Soul Valley was in a dangerous position, surrounded by steep cliffs, and only a narrow passage led to the valley.
Jiang Qing signaled the team to hide, and he walked into the valley alone. The valley was empty, with a flat boulder in the middle, on which stood a burly man, Jun Wudao.
"Jun Wudao, I didn't expect that when we met again, you had become the leader of the demon tribe." Jiang Qing got straight to the point.
"Jiang Qing." Jun Wudao smiled, "I didn't expect you to grow so fast."
"We currently have a common goal, which is to eliminate the clone. After eliminating the clone, we can rely on our own abilities. So, how do you prove that it is not the clone?" Jiang Qing got straight to the point.
Finding out the authenticity of the other party is the premise for continuing cooperation.
"Then how do you prove that you are the real Jiang Qing?" Jun Wudao suddenly asked.
Jun Wudao smiled slightly and took out an ancient token from his arms, which was engraved with the totem of the demon clan: "This is a token of our demon clan, and only a true leader can hold it."
Jiang Qing took the token and felt the powerful power contained in it. He knew that it was not a forged thing.
In addition, Jun Wudao's understanding of the demon clan and his views on the battle of luck all showed his authenticity.
Jiang Qing continued: "But this is still not enough. The clone can also obtain these memories and even replace you to control the demon clan."
Then he began to try to induce Jun Wudao to doubt himself. Only when the assimilation phenomenon occurs can he be truly sure.
Jun Wudao said unhappily: "Okay, stop trying to induce me. You are looking down on me.
At least I carry the demon clan token with me. If he wants to take it away, he must defeat me first. Do you understand?"
...
The team heading to Wujiyuan was led by Luoshui, including Shen Chengxian, Bailiye and others.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at the deep and dark Wujiyuan.
Wujiyuan is a huge cemetery with no bottom and thick fog all around.
Yaoguang led the team to slowly descend along the plank road on the cliff and finally arrived at a hidden platform.
On the platform, another demon clan leader who called himself Jun Wudao was waiting for them. His appearance was no different from the real Jun Wudao, but Yaoguang did not act rashly, but started a cautious conversation.
"We have a clear purpose for this trip. We need to know your true identity." Yaoguang said bluntly.
This "Jun Wudao" also showed strong self-confidence. He also provided some evidence to prove his identity, including his knowledge of the secrets of the demon race and some internal tokens.
However, during the conversation, Yaoguang noticed something different.
When this "Jun Wudao" talked about the future of the demon race, there was a hint of emotional fluctuation in his eyes that did not belong to the demon race. This subtle difference made Yaoguang suspicious.
