Underworld Retrograde

Chapter 129 Cheese's Obsession

"Since we are all looking for a house, why don't we go together?"

Cheese sat in the driver's seat of the scrapped SUV. The warm scarf covered the wound on her neck, making her look more petite and lovely.

The depression on her face dissipated, and she smiled friendly. There seemed to be some emotion in her eyes.

And her words made Li Yelai unable to understand for a while.

Are we going to the branch office to find a house together?

Or together.

Li Yelai subconsciously remembered the scene of Cheese, with a flushed face, wearing a white nightgown and half leaning on the sofa.

At that time, Cheese had an injured arm and asked him to help her change clothes. This made the heartbeats of both of them very fast

In fact, Cheese usually talks a lot, but she has never had any love affairs.

If there is any intimate behavior, her face will be redder than an apple.

At that time, if Li Yelai really did something, he would be afraid that he would completely lose this good friend.

In addition, Li Yelai had a very clear understanding of himself and thought that this was another flirtatious teasing by Cheese. It should be to go to the branch office to find a house together.

Thinking of this, Li Yelai took a deep breath and dispelled the image in his mind. He said, "I'm just going to the branch to ask if there are any vacant family apartments. Let's go together?"

'That's right, his sister is not easy to contact with other people. ' Cheese thought, the light in his eyes was restrained, and he responded softly: "Then let's go."

Then, the two walked on the broken road, chatting as they walked.

The people coming and going around were engineering teams or combat personnel, and occasionally some psychics could be seen.

The reconstruction of the giant city and the cleaning of the remaining insect swarms were carried out at the same time, and it was unknown when the giant city could be restored.

"Since your house is destroyed, where does Xiaoyan live now?" Cheese asked.

"A confidential area in the new city area, there are people there who can take care of her, and I will pick her up after I find a house," Li Yelai responded.

Although Li Yunyan has become a psychic, the effect of the curse still prevents her from living a normal life.

At present, she is still with the soulless 'nun'. It must be said that the nun helped a lot. Otherwise, Li Yelai would not feel at ease to let Li Yunyan stay alone in a certain place. But as a soulless person, the identity of the ‘nun’ is kept secret. Even most captains do not know her existence.

The doll may know, but it should not have been exposed yet.

Li Yelai did not say much.

“I understand~~ confidential mission.” Cheese did not continue to ask. Instead, he said: “In order to deal with the disaster fog, the existence of human psychics has been exposed to the public. The giant city will gradually inform the public of the existence of psychics. At the same time, be prepared not to be picked up by the Embers Church.”

Li Yelai nodded. Before the disaster fog came, most people in the giant city understood psychics as urban legends.

Just like Li Yelai, before he encountered the skinner. He was not aware of these extraordinary existences.

Most people have never left the giant city in their lives.

The understanding of the disaster fog is more like a natural disaster specifically targeting humans.

And those scavengers who often leave the giant city know more than the people, but under the watchful eyes of the giant city, they all concealed everything.

After all, this is not something worth publicizing. Instead, it will cause some kind of panic.

Now, the disaster fog has come, and the killing insect swarms devour everything. At least for those survivors who were swallowed by the disaster fog, the existence of psychics has been exposed.

What the official needs to do now is to let them gradually understand the existence of psychics.

This risk is actually very big, psychics.

In the eyes of the outside world, especially in the eyes of ordinary people, what kind of powerful force is this?

In the bloody battle with the insect swarm, people have long witnessed the power and uniqueness of psychics.

Especially those high-level psychics, such as Yang Chen, who rushed to kill the forbidden army insects at supersonic speed. Like Lieyang, mimicking the mythical golden crow. Like a sword maniac, flying a sword to kill thousands of evil demons!

This is a fatal attraction for many people.

Then how many people among the millions of people who survived now want to become psychics?

And how many people are really gifted with psychic powers?

What should other people who don’t have psychic talents do if they still want to become psychics?

If they are jealous, if they are unwilling, they will lead to the corruption of the Church of Ashes!

The Embers Church only took out some high-risk catalysts, and the people who were eager to gain power flocked to it.

Some people who suffered injustice and man-made disasters would do whatever it took to become psychics.

Imagine an ordinary person who was crushed by power. If he could gain extraordinary power, he would fight for this ray of hope even if there was a high probability of death.

In addition, in the church, becoming a psychic can ask for everything from the believers. This trend has been intensified.

Just from what Li Yelai knew, there were cases where he gave up his daughter and all his property in order to become a psychic for a very risky catalyst.

Because he became a psychic, he could gain the respect and resources of countless believers in the church.

This was a life-and-death gamble. Chen Xiaodao could win 20 million with 20 yuan.

They thought they could do it too.

However, most people lost the bet, became victims, and continued to harm the giant city.

This is also the reason why the authorities dare not easily expose the existence of psychics.

There will always be people who crave power, and the Church of the Embers will inevitably take this opportunity to corrupt more people, making the city even more dangerous.

So, the authorities must be more careful to guard against the Embers Church hidden in the crowd.

"The Embers Church is a cancer of mankind." Li Yelai suddenly thought of the oracle he had seen before. The giant sitting on the throne was one of the beings worshipped by the Embers Church? If he was in the Embers Church, he would be a big shot?

I don't know if I will have the opportunity to be a secret agent in the Embers Church in the future.

Let them taste the taste of bad luck and take away a few lucky audiences at random

At this time, Cheese suddenly asked: "Is there any sign of opening up your Well of Souls?"

Li Yelai was startled, and immediately stopped and closed his eyes to look at the Well of Souls. Then he shook his head and said: "This is just the beginning? I only had the third awakening a few days ago."

Li Yelai went to the Ark a few days after the third awakening, and then came to the Disaster Mist less than five days after returning.

It has only been more than a month so far, which is not enough for him to break through to the fourth awakening.

"Then I have surpassed you!" Cheese smiled, a little proud. She fought against the swarm of insects many times in the disaster fog, and the soul well was developed very quickly. Now she can try the fourth awakening.

However, the psychics passing by looked at the two people in shock.

They are all psychics, with stronger physiques than ordinary people and very sharp hearing.

Cheese's low-pitched complaints were just heard by them.

They heard it, but not much.

So

"What did you do to him? Shit!" A psychic from the neighboring Border City No. 2 said with wide eyes: "The customs of your Border City No. 3 are so wild? Is this something you can talk about?"

"Then can I listen for a few more minutes?" A female handler's eyes lit up.

"I can't tell that this girl is a cross-dresser!"

"No, no, no, gender doesn't matter, women can also surpass men."

"The couple is having a lot of fun."

They talked about it, and Cheese's face was visibly red. Then he responded: "I mean the super in the sense of surpassing. You bunch of filthy people!"

"Tsk!" The psychics left with great regret.

Li Yelai saw that Cheese's face was still red, and couldn't help but complain: "Calling you hollow ear? Was it misunderstood? How bad is this for you, a girl"

"If you keep complaining, it won't be hollow ear!" Cheese snorted, and then put on a gangster attitude.

Li Yelai had to stop complaining and asked solemnly: "Are you going to break through the fourth awakening?"

"Well, soon. In a week." Cheese responded: "After all, I was three awakenings earlier than you. When you were awakened for the first time, I broke through the third awakening, and when you were awakened for the third time, I was still awakened for the third time. If you are awakened for the fourth time, I will still be standing still. Isn't it that you surpassed me?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Li Yelai stopped and looked at Cheese and said seriously: "Are you really sure?"

The fourth awakening of a psychic is a hurdle. After the fourth awakening, the psychic can shape his own psychic projection. At that time, psychics can not only strengthen their psychic strength, but also have a stronger psychic recovery effect.

The combat power has increased by more than double compared to the third awakening.

But the risk is also great. You know, the larger the soul well is, the easier it is to be discovered by virtual creatures, or even some strange beings.

After the fourth awakening, the probability of being discovered is greater, which also means that the probability of being distorted is greater.

"I know that I could have the fourth awakening half a month ago, but the risk of distortion in the disaster fog was too great, so I kept it as a trump card. I have been suppressing the soul well. There has been enough precipitation." Cheese smiled and responded: "If I fail."

She paused, looking at Li Yelai with indescribable emotions in her eyes: "I am afraid of pain, when you send me, be quick."

"You are such a vicious woman" Li Yelai felt very uncomfortable.

The handlers all hope that their friends will "send" themselves away, which is the last blessing. But Li Yelai thinks this is too cruel.

Cheese smiled, without words. She left a hint on Li Yelai that once she died, she would forget her.

‘This won’t make you too painful.’ She thought to herself.

In fact, if psychics maintain their current level and do not pursue more power, the risk of being distorted will be greatly reduced.

But Cheese has a reason to become a fourth awakening and a night without being saved.

She wants to go outside the city to find the real murderer who killed her cousin.

Or, many relatives and friends of the champion team at that time had this wish.

The former champion team was very powerful.

Since the establishment of the processing department of Border City No. 3, they have always been the strongest team.

The captain of each generation is named ‘champion’. And they are all geniuses with strong combat power!

The fourth generation champion led the team to attack the Embers Church and killed the evil projection in it.

The fifth generation champion once went deep into the restricted area and killed the overlord-level strongman in it. He attracted the king of the restricted area to chase him.

The sixth generation champion fought alone against eighteen powerful virtual creatures, and exiled fifteen of them before dying of exhaustion.

Each generation of champions is an extremely dazzling strongman, and their sacrifice makes humans regret.

Five years ago, the seventh generation champion was a powerful psychic who was about to break through to the eighth awakening.

She was regarded as the successor of the Mad King.

The members of his team also had several strong people with the sixth and fifth awakenings.

Just looking at the high-end combat power, their team is comparable to a branch.

But after encountering the 49th disaster fog, the champion team suffered heavy losses. After the seven generations of ‘champions’ and a large number of elite warriors fought desperately and died. Team 1 successfully suppressed the 49th disaster fog!

But afterwards, the 49th disaster fog revived very quickly. The reason is unknown.

The remaining team members were forced to evacuate, but suffered some strange attacks on the way.

The surprise attack during this evacuation was very strange and hard to guard against.

The champion team, which still had enough combat power, was completely defeated.

Almost all the elites died, and even Yang Chen had to kill Fuyou himself.

This also led to the complete destruction of the champion team.

As the eighth generation ‘champion’, Yang Chen and many family members have the same sad wish.

That is to investigate the truth and kill the real murderer!

Cheese became a psychic because of this. She must avenge her closest cousin. This is her obsession.

Li Yelai was silent for a moment and asked, "What about the potion? What are your plans?"

"There are three official potions of the Four Awakenings. But only two are available at present." Cheese responded, "They are, spells and phantom sounds. As for the Jing family, they are willing to share some potion formulas due to cooperation with the Giant City, among which there are the Four Awakenings' whispering potions and death rattles. They are all auxiliary types, so I haven't decided which potion to use yet."

Spells can impose certain negative effects on the target. Phantom sounds can make the target who hears the sound fall into hallucinations.

Death rattles, give a certain command to the target, and it will be triggered at the moment of its death. There are greater restrictions, but proper control will bring unexpected gains.

None of the three potions have offensive effects, and Cheese itself has two auxiliary abilities. If you want a strong offensive ability, there is no more choice.

Li Yelai looked at Cheese and fell silent. He didn't want Cheese to take risks, but he had no reason or position to stop her.

He brought back the formulas of three potions from the Ark transaction.

Three awakening Zhenwu path potion · Broken Gangjin

Four awakening whispering path potion · Dragon Roar

Six awakening zeroing path potion · Skyfire

As a reward for bringing back the formula, the official will give Li Yelai these three potions for free once.

Among them, Dragon Roar is a potion from the Ark, which is a very domineering offensive whispering ability.

In a distant life restricted area, there is a dragon race that can control the weather with dragon roar.

This potion is to transfer this power to the psychic.

Both offensive and auxiliary are not weak.

Li Yelai could only sigh and said: "If you have made up your mind. I can give you a potion, but you have to promise me"

"Send a four awakening potion? This is a big favor, let me promise it with my body?" Cheese was a little surprised at Li Yelai's handwriting, but still teased.

"Don't talk about this, you have to survive first" Li Yelai sighed: "I don't have many friends."

Cheese retracted his smile and nodded slightly: "Well, I promise you."

(Happy New Year everyone)
