Chapter 487: Chapter 0487: Drama Queen (Third Update Request for Subscription)
‘The seventh level ritual is indeed challenging. Despite my thorough preparation, some details were overlooked.’
‘Although those photos should be impossible to duplicate, they are ‘high-level marvels’ after all, it is the information they carry that is precious. How could ordinary means possibly duplicate it?’
‘Even if there are only a few, and the content is somewhat scattered, when they fall into the hands of national institutions, they are extremely valuable resources.’
Occupational Persons can only enter dreams and comprehend the ‘Ancient God’ during their first attraction and subsequent promotion.
But for those who possess the ‘Ancient God photos’, it is as if they have gained a database!
‘What’s worse is, this database… is from before my ‘adaptation’, containing [Wandering Mage] and other series of information… Although it’s difficult at first, once they get started, it’s possible to attain my true occupational information, study the Spirit World and dimensions, grow rapidly, and even discover the truth about this universe!’
Su Lu looked troubled, ‘I knew… it couldn’t be smooth sailing.’
This situation was akin to the ‘hidden path’ he left for himself potentially being attained by other Occupational Persons.
With the system’s backdoors and vulnerabilities filled, competition becomes more equitable. Facing various countries and research institutions, the elites among billions of people, he could very possibly be overthrown!
‘Fortunately… I still have the attribute bar to cheat with, something no one else absolutely possesses.’
Luckily, the cheat Su Lu prepared for himself was not the only one!
‘Who… who are you exactly?’
Robinson pointed at Su Lu.
All of a sudden, a slender needle emerged behind Su Lu’s head, jabbing directly into his neck.
He screamed, collapsing onto the ground.
‘Haha… haha!’
Robinson started laughing loudly: ‘As an illusionist, you exposed your body right in front of me. Your arrogance is your grave!’
He took a step forward, crouching down: ‘I will take away your ability, then take you back… the research institution lacks ‘materials’ like you!’
‘And… before that, I will make you regret coming to this world, make you spill out all the intel you know!’
He felt that this fellow seemed to be shrouded in mystery. If taken back, it could possibly be a bigger merit than seizing Cheng Feng and Wang Chaoqun.
‘Are you so confident in winning?’
The ‘Su Lu’ on the ground suddenly laughed, ‘You don’t understand my powers at all!’
He stood up, his body suddenly turning pure white, like a plaster statue.
‘No! No!’
Understanding something, Robinson stepped back continuously, sweating profusely: ‘This can’t be…’
‘There’s nothing impossible. From the very beginning, I have been hypnotizing you.’
Su Lu’s voice echoed from all directions: ‘Your eyes are deceiving you, so is your nose… Everything humans perceive ultimately boils down to various information and stimuli sent to the brain… What if, your brain betrays you too?’
‘This…’
Robinson looked down at his feet.
The mobile phone he initially smashed unknowingly turned into a banana!
He was just using a banana to call someone, played around by this mysterious person just like a monkey!
Even the world he saw, heard, and sensed was all illusion and deception!
‘Is this… the power of the divine?’
Collapsing to the ground, Robinson, looked at Su Lu approaching, gave up all resistance in despair.
‘No, this is just my strongest hypnosis – ‘Brain in the Vat!’
Su Lu’s silhouette gradually disappeared.
…
[XP+50!]
Su Lu looked at the attribute bar and walked back to the shop very satisfied.
‘Ada, you did a good job this time.’
He glanced at the descending crow and praised.
‘Thank you… Master!’
A parrot-like voice came from the crow’s mouth. If any ordinary person heard it, they might be frightened to death, or think they had encountered a ‘Crow Spirit’!
But Su Lu wasn’t surprised.
If it couldn’t awaken wisdom after being fed his spiritual diet for so long, then it could be taken straight to the pot and stewed to avoid the waste.
“Hmm, I authorize you to expand your intellectual entourage, but they can’t appear together around me… the number… let it be seven!”
The events of today made Su Lu decide to expand his helpers: “I need you to surveil this city for me, or at least my district. Inform me immediately if any irregularity arises.”
“Understood, don’t worry! Master!”
Ada, with fluttering wings, flew out through the window.
Feeling the ‘Hypnotic Seed’ in its body, Su Lu went back very reassuredly to take a bath and sleep.
…
Under the moonlight.
A majestic black-feathered crow flapped its wings and quickly arrived at a nearby park, stopping at the highest tree branch.
“Caw~”
Accompanied by its cawing, two slightly smaller crows flew over and bowed their bodies with wings spread, expressing their submission in bird language: “Boss… Boss!”
Pop, pop!
Opening its wings, Ada gave one of them a flap: “A’er, Asan! You two are still too stupid, you can’t even speak properly! Listen to me now… our great master allows us to expand our flock and promote four wise brothers.”
“Is…this…true?”
“This is…great…”
A’er and Asan cawed jovially.
“Caw caw~”
From the surrounding tree leaves, numerous crow heads suddenly peered out. The number was no less than a few dozen, flapping their wings and cawing, as if echoing the sentiment.
Under the cover of the night, they all perch on a big tree. Anyone who saw this would definitely be horrified.
Even Su Lu himself didn’t know that his three little birdie followers had already gathered so many subordinates.
“Hmm, we must continue to gather our kind. One day, our crow family will rule the whole world… enslaving those foolish humans!”
Ada nodded satisfactorily.
“But…but… the master… the master is also a human!” A’er seemed to hesitate.
“Idiot!”
Ada gave A’er a wing slap: “How could our great master be a human? He is a god! He is the god of our crow family! The Father of Wisdom! Possessing a hundred faces, a thousand forms! He only maintains the foolish human form for convenience, understand?”
“We understand!”
A’er and Asan nodded repeatedly.
“Good, first select five of our brothers to go to the great master to be baptized… then, according to the great master’s command, we will control this city and establish our Crow Kingdom to better serve the master!”
“Kingdom… What is that? Is it delicious?” Asan asked naively.
“Idiot… Kingdom… a Kingdom is…”
Ada pointed towards the brilliantly lit city in the distance: “The Kingdom is to turn that place into our forest, making humans into our slaves who catch bugs for us!”
“But…bugs…don’t taste good. I…still like…the bread crumbs they give me.”
Asan laughed cheerfully: “I don’t have to do anything and get fed. Does that mean I already have servants? I am so happy!”
“You fool!”
Ada roared: “In any case… listen to me, we are going to establish an organization, aiming to control this world, to better serve the master! For this, we have to reluctantly develop our influence among the foolish humans… You listen carefully, next, I want you to find suitable humans to become our slaves…”
If Su Lu were here, he would probably be shocked and retort: “I’m not! I don’t have! It’s not my doing! Hey, hey… don’t get carried away on your own, are you planning to stir things up?”
His Hypnotic Seed just made these three transcendent crows regard him as their master, faithfully carry out tasks, and would not betray.
They still had their own thoughts which he could not fully peer into or control, and he didn’t even bother to do so.
And Su Lu didn’t expect that he would end up raising a crow with such strong ‘subjective initiative’ that would ‘over interpret’ things on its own.
