Indescribable cyberpunk

Regarding the liberation of the soul, Zhu Jue's situation is undoubtedly different from ordinary people.

If the growth of the soul is regarded as the construction of a house, most people naturally have to start by laying the foundation. To put it simply, they need to find ways to perceive the energy changes in the soul or mental power.

Most travelers enter the dreamland as ordinary people. They may rely on modern technological weapons and ability injections to become extremely powerful in combat, but without exception, their souls are in a state of self-enclosure. According to the gentleman This is a common norm among modern people.

Therefore, everyone is looking for items like the wine in the novice gift pack to help them feel spiritual power. However, some people are born with talents in this area. Maybe a special cup of wine can barely detect it. And more people need to achieve qualitative changes through quantitative changes.

And in this process, no one thought about using modern technology to analyze those special items and then artificially manufacture them, but the results ended in failure without exception, because those items themselves are specialties, and no matter how they are analyzed, they are always artificial. A slight difference, and this slight difference often means a huge gap.

As the gentleman said, most of the people who need to win by quantity are those whose bodies have undergone armed transformation and whose flesh is no longer pure. Here we have to mention the impact of mechanical prostheses on the personal spirit. The gentleman specifically stated that the human body he accepted The more transformations there are, the harder it is to feel the soul energy.

Zhu Jue didn't listen carefully to this part. He was not interested in discussing such philosophical issues with a gentleman, so he skipped it directly, and was secretly glad that he had not tried to install a chip in his brain before.

Back to business.

While others were laying the foundation, Zhu Jue's "house construction" process started from the top floor of the building. This statement may be a bit strange, but it is the reality. In Zhu Jue's self-analysis, he quickly realized This situation does not simply come from the help of the great race.

The real reason lies in his mental changes after traveling to this world.

His spirit was mixed with the will of furbolgs and other monsters that were sources of mental pollution by devouring their evolved flesh. This caused his soul to be polluted while quietly growing stronger. The blizzard of furbolgs, the deep one Water control, nightmare's mental perception, these abilities themselves are manifestations of strong spiritual will.

At the same time, he accidentally awakened his soul in Rongxia City. Later, when he met the great race for the first time in the desert, due to the influence of the spiritual pollution source monster, his soul had turned into a similar monster.

Then came the boundless, indescribable cloud of flesh and blood encountered in the Swart Valley, and the soul that was unexpectedly purified by the whipping of the giant meat monster that was sacrificed.

In the final four-way battle in the snowfields of Greenland, the soul was finally stabilized through the Ancient One's crystal.

The dangerous crisis in this process resulted in unprecedented strength at the moment when they broke out of the ice five years later. What the great race did was nothing more than break the shackles on Zhu Jue's soul.

Now that Zhu Jue's foundation and part of the frame have been completed, all he has to do is to do his best to enrich the content and think about how to make this building taller. This is somewhat like a "house" Exquisite".

"It's like the things in the newbie gift pack before. There are a lot of them in that world?"

Stopping his thinking for the time being, Zhu Jue leaned against the bookshelf next to him and took his question one step further.

"Of course, it's just that obtaining them often requires some prerequisites, such as pleasing the monsters guarding them, or a more direct method."

As the gentleman spoke, he picked up a cylinder from the table, unscrewed the lid, took out a piece of white paper and handed it to Zhu Jue, and then said,

"I said in the corridor before that as long as you are willing to join my team, you will get preferential treatment. This is the contract I prepared for you. Only you and I know the contents, and only the two of us know it!"

"How old are these, paper contracts?"

Zhu Jue came forward to take over the contract and asked in surprise.

"A contract is more effective than any empty promise. Although this contract is not legally binding, I think that compared to other traveler teams that are completely profit-centered chaos, at least it allows us to do it to a certain extent. The goal is the same, and you are not the only one who signed this contract, some of its terms are recognized by everyone in the team."

The gentleman seems to admire this kind of contractual cooperation. This is not unreasonable. Most people will maintain a certain degree of integrity under normal circumstances, especially when the interests of both parties are consistent. No matter who they are, they will subconsciously abide by the existing rules. treaty.

Zhu Jue glanced at the contract in his hand. The contents above were roughly the various terms that both parties of the contract needed to fulfill. Most of them were commonplace. Zhu Jue was more concerned about the distribution of benefits.

"If a joint task occurs during the trip, then after the task is over, the benefits will be distributed based on the contribution to the task. If there is any deficiency, Party A must make up for it. What does the joint task mean? We are not acting together?"

Zhu Jue originally thought that he had to follow the team of the guy in front of him, but he was still a little repelled by this. Unexpectedly, the terms in the contract showed another meaning.

"Of course not. The dreamland world is very big. We may appear in different places every time we travel. I will not restrict your freedom, nor will I interfere with what you want to do. In this regard, you can regard me as An intermediary or guide.”

He turned to the desk and sat down, spreading the three fingers of his left hand to support his cheek. The gentleman's eyes stayed on Zhu Jue and said,

"I will help you establish a foothold in the dreamland as soon as possible and provide information like just now, but this is not free. I will also encounter troubles that I can't solve alone or treasures I want to get. By then, naturally I need your help. Similarly, if you are hunted down by dream eaters or local indigenous people, you can also seek my help, and this help will undoubtedly require a certain amount of remuneration. Otherwise, even if you die in front of me, I will They can't even lift a finger. Weak people are not qualified to survive in the dreamland. Being killed only proves that they are nothing more than that!"

Only at this time, a certain cold power would appear on the gentleman's body. When he found that Zhu Juebiao was still unmoved, he immediately changed the subject: "This is the preferential treatment I will give you. "

"Heh, it seems there is such a thing as differential treatment?"

Zhu Jue put down the contract with great interest. He wanted to hear what the gentleman meant by preferential treatment.

"Of course, you are very powerful. There is no doubt about it. After all, there are not many people who can kill Mr. Wild Boar with a single blow. So as long as you are willing to help me, then I will give you something extra every time the reward is settled. I will even tell you some special information about Dreamland for free. I value your potential, so I want to win you over!"

What the gentleman said couldn't be more straightforward. He was showing his goodwill to Zhu Jue. He didn't even enter the dreamland, but he wanted Zhu Jue to stand with him first.

"I'm embarrassed to say that. After all, I'm just an ordinary person."

Showing joy just right. As for whether Zhu Jue would like the gentleman because of his kindness, the answer is naturally no.

The conversation between the two sides is largely just a test for each other. The gentleman obviously hopes to use Zhu Jue's power to accomplish something, and Zhu Jue also needs him to help him figure out this so-called dreamland for the time being. What exactly is this place?

Now everyone gets what they need. The superficial peace naturally needs to be maintained. What will happen in the future is another matter.

Dong Dong~

Zhu Jue wanted to ask some questions before the trip started, but at this moment there was a knock on the door.

"It seems that your teammates have arrived. This is the second time we have met, but I don't know what to call you yet."

"nickname?"

"Of course, even though we're a team, privacy is very important."

Naturally, the names "Shuo Shu" and "Wild Boar" cannot be their real names.

"Wind chimes."

Zhu Jue sold the wind chime casually, and the wind chime that was sitting on his shoulder still sounded. The gentleman noticed it and said nothing.

It's just a code name. As long as the other party is willing, it doesn't matter even if it's called Gentleman Rotten Sweet Potato. He stood up and walked to the door, grabbed the door handle and opened it.

The first person who came in was a young woman with tan skin, probably of black descent, but with fairly delicate facial features. She acted very calmly and only nodded in greeting when she saw the gentleman.

"This is Miss Black Swan. She is a team member who has participated in five trips. She has the most experience besides me."

The gentleman introduced her just right, but Zhu Jue had little communication with this woman. The latter seemed to be used to seeing new people, and after noticing Zhu Jue's presence, she only glanced at her twice and then looked away.

After the black swan are two men who came in side by side. Judging from the way they were talking and laughing, they must have a good relationship. The man on the left has a strong body and well-defined muscles. He should be a similar character to the previous wild boar. In comparison, the man on the right The man's figure was a bit thin, but his eyes were particularly sharp. Zhu Jue noticed that he locked his position the first time he entered the door, and then he and the strong man next to him bowed to pay attention to the gentleman.

Obviously, the relationship between these two men and the gentleman is obviously not as good as that of Black Swan.

"This strong man is Mr. Rhino, and this is Mr. AK. The former has participated in 2 trips, and the latter is a newcomer like you. He just participated in 1 trip more than a week ago. Three of them, these are The new member of our team who will replace Mr. Wild Boar, Mr. Wind Chime.”

The gentleman deliberately emphasized the matter of replacing the wild boar, and after he finished speaking, the expressions of Rhino and AK changed.

Rhino looked at Zhu Jue with a somewhat unkind look, but did not say anything. He just nodded indifferently to express his understanding and turned aside. As for AK, he obviously showed goodwill. Perhaps it was because of the arrival of a new person, which made him feel His status has improved, so he smiled and nodded to Zhu Jue.
