What’s Wrong With Seeking Death?

"Well... Generally speaking, ordinary people who are entangled by abominable things are prone to mental problems. With the opportunity of mental treatment, we can target this group of people faster and find out the culprit behind it."

"In case the ability user gets out of control or in other extreme situations, it's easier to cover up with such a shell..."

While talking, Yang Buqi looked sideways at Xu Tuoran who was silent beside him: "Are you okay?"

Xu Tueran quietly followed him across most of the courtyard, and twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard this:

"It's very good, the scenery is good. I feel that the whole person is refreshed."

Yang Buqi: …

But Xu Turan was not lying. The layout of this nursing home is quite good—from the outside, it feels that the flowers and plants inside are suitable, and there is a sense of leisure like a small park. After entering, I feel comfortable and warm, which makes people feel very relaxed.

...This somewhat dispelled Xu Tuoran's resentment that he "didn't escape the mental hospital after all".

Yang Buqi observed her expression from the sidelines, heaved a sigh of relief, and said proactively: "We have high-level Eternal Day ability users, who can properly adjust the environment and atmosphere to make patients more comfortable here... There is a shell of a nursing home. Is service paramount?"

Xu Tuoran, who just felt more comfortable: …

"...what should I do." She closed her eyes and forced herself to divert her attention from the keyword "mental hospital".

What else can I do, come here.

"Wait, I'll take you to fill out a form, and then just wait for the test results." Yang Buqi said, "Our quality tests are conducted by high-level omniscients. After the results come out, we will arrange according to your situation. Some training sessions."

"Still going to class?" Xu Tuoran's eyebrows twitched.

"Help you adapt to your abilities and better master stunts." Yang Buqi explained, "Different abilities also have different training directions."

For example, "War", "Long Night", and "Eternal Day" who are prone to emotional problems need to learn how to better self-regulate; "Beast" needs to learn to adapt to changes in the five senses or instincts; "Chaotic" tendency Or, you must master the "anchor" earlier than others.

"Anchor?" Xu vainly raised his eyes.

Yang Buqi: "It is something that can stabilize your self-cognition. Other tendencies will be learned in the future. They will be used in many tasks."

Hearing the word "task", Xu Tuoran instantly became excited. Yang Buqi seemed to have noticed something, and looked at her seriously: "No matter what, learn how to protect yourself first, this is the most important."

Xu Tuoran immediately said: "Look at what you said, it seems that I don't know how to study hard."

Yang Buqi: …

No, what I mean by "learn well" is, learn it, and then do it...

This guy, do you really understand what I'm saying?

A faint worry surfaced in Yang Buqi's heart again. He sighed silently, and led Xu Tuoran into the deepest building of the nursing home.

The "Compassionate Mind and Spiritual Rehabilitation Center" is divided into two parts.

The first half is the general diagnosis and treatment department and the inpatient department, while the second half is dedicated to the activities of ability users. There are separate dining and living areas.

The two buildings share a common garden. However, under the psychological suggestion of the capable person, ordinary patients and employees will basically only move around the outer circle of the garden, and will not pay attention to or care about the buildings standing in the depths. , and the people who come and go in it.

It stands to reason that it is best for newcomers to live in a nursing home for a while. But Xu Tuoran didn't intend to do that—it had nothing to do with the name "mental sanatorium", she was planning to find another place to live from the very beginning. She also has a pile of supernatural items that she bought newly, and it might not be suitable for her to live in a pile of capable people.

Fortunately, yesterday when she troubled her assistant to cancel the rent and find a new place to live, the assistant took the initiative to ask her about the scope of her next activities. It was only then that Xu Tuoran found out that his family happened to have real estate in the same city—it was recorded in the name of her cheap adoptive brother, but Xu Tuoran could move there at any time, and it was not far from the Charity Institute.

Anyway, I don't need to live in a mental hospital anymore, right?

Because of this, Xu Tuoran didn't bring any luggage this time, and put all the large items in the Meihua apartment, and the assistant would go to pick them up; and the usual "newcomer check-in" link was also canceled, and Yang Buqi took her to visit everywhere. .

Unfortunately, not long after visiting, he was called away for some reason. Xu Tuoran was temporarily placed in an empty conference room, next to a thick book of rules for newcomers. In Yang Buqi's words, "I'm afraid she will be bored, so I show her to relieve her boredom."

Xu Tuoran: ...I can thank you.

The meeting room is well lit, and the warm sunlight covers most of the tabletop. There was no one to supervise him, so of course Xu Tuoran was impatient to turn over the pages of the book. After sitting for a while, he got up for a walk and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows to look out.

From her position, she could just see the window of the other building opposite. For some reason, most of the windows on the opposite side were being covered by curtains. She looked along casually, her eyes suddenly paused.

She saw a waving hand.

The hand was behind the innermost window on the fifth floor opposite, protruding from behind the half-drawn curtain, and the waving motion was quite large. After Xu Tueran looked over, the dance became even more exaggerated.

Xu Tuoran: ...?

Are you greeting me?

She hesitated for a moment, raised her hand, and was just about to respond when a scene that made her even more puzzled appeared.

The half-covered curtains were pulled back completely, revealing the person sitting behind the window. It was a thin man with half-length hair and a sickly pale complexion.

The hand that was desperately waving towards Xu Tuoran was his. But the strange thing is that when he saw Xu Tu, he was obviously taken aback.

And while he was stunned, his right hand was still waving happily... an indescribable violation.

Then he glanced at his right hand, shook his head, and drew the curtain again in front of Xu Tuoran.

This time the curtains were drawn tightly. Whether it is the person or the right hand, they are all completely blocked.

Xu Tuoran just raised his hand to respond: "..."

The so-called feng shui turns, and today, she finally realized the subtle mood of "what the **** is this guy doing".

Is this the legendary "mental sanatorium"?

Ok, Ok. I have learned a lot.

At the same time, on the fifth floor opposite. In the innermost room.

The young man put down the left hand holding the curtain, sighed, and turned to look at his right hand:

"What are you doing? You mess around without paying attention for a while, what if you scare people?"

The right hand didn't respond, it just lay quietly on the table with its fingers tucked in, like a cat with its limbs curled up.

The young man chuckled, adjusted his position, and opened the computer in front of him with his left hand.

"Stop making trouble. There is a job. There are newcomers here who need to be appraised."

He seemed to be talking to himself, skillfully found the newly submitted newcomer information from the database, and immediately sat up straight.

...No, rather than sitting upright, it is as if his body was "straightened" by an invisible force. The sick and thin body trembled slightly, and his eyes were completely empty, as if he was looking at a screen, or as if he was looking at the endless void through the screen in front of him.

At the same time, his left hand was raised. Start typing on the keyboard quickly.

[Name: Xu Tuoran. 】

[Age: nineteen. 】

[Quality: Crazy Rabbit, Snow White Queen. 】

[Ability Tendency: Chaos, Beast, Natural Disaster, Rank...]

Before he finished typing the last word, his right hand, which was lying quietly on the side, suddenly jumped up, and jumped onto the delete key talking to himself, and with a few taps, he deleted most of the content he just typed.

...?

The young man who was in a state of emptiness suddenly came back to his senses, looked at the computer screen, and showed a dumbfounding expression.

"What are you doing? Getting angry with me?"

He said in a good voice, "Okay, don't make trouble. Do you like that girl across the street? Can I take you to play with her when I'm free? Now it's working hours, and Yang Buqi is waiting for the result..."

He raised his left hand again, wanting to undo the deletion, but the content had just been restored, and the right hand deleted it without saying a word.

youth:…

He looked down at his right hand, which simply stretched out its five fingers and lay down on the keyboard.

There is a posture of "If you dare to hit me again, I will be in a hurry with you".

"..." The young man lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and his expression became serious.

"Feifei?" He whispered softly, "Did you 'foresee' something?"

The right hand lying on the keyboard moved again by itself, and jumped a few times flexibly, and a line of words appeared on the screen.

The young man stared at the line for a while, then laughed again.

"Okay, then do it according to your heart." He said, leaning back relaxedly, "Come as you like, I will clean up for you."

Obtaining his promise, his right hand seemed to be happy all of a sudden, turned over to give him a gesture of heart, and then lowered his fingers, dexterously dancing on the keyboard.

In a quarter of an hour.

Yang Buqi, who was working hard to revise the report, finally received the appraisal result from the high-level omniscient.

As Xu Tuoran's novice guide, he opened the result without thinking - followed by his brow furrowed.

[Name: Xu Tuoran. 】

[Age: nineteen. 】

[Quality: Invincible and cute little jade rabbit, Snow White. 】

[Ability tendencies: wild beasts, natural disasters, eternal day]

Yang Buqi: …

He reported that he couldn't change it anymore, so he stood up.

"Teacher Yang?" The colleague next to him looked over in surprise, "That, that report..."

"I'm sorry, I have something urgent." Yang Buqi suppressed the irritability in his heart, "I will definitely give it this afternoon, I'm really sorry..."

He said, turned and walked out. He quickly rushed to the fifth floor opposite, knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened. After asking the security guard, I found out that the people in the house had already gone to the cafeteria to eat.

That guy is still in the mood to eat...Yang Buqi's eyes were darkened when he thought of the appraisal result, and without thinking about it, he went directly to the cafeteria.

The second floor of the cafeteria is full of boxes. He knew that the man only ate in the box.

Yang Buqi found the last room on the second floor with familiarity, and the door was ajar. He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door when he heard "Come in" from inside.

Yang Buqi: …

He was not polite, he pushed the door open and walked in, the first sentence was: "Pu Han, what are you doing?"

The box is very large, but there is only one person sitting at the table. The pale and thin young man slowly picked up the teacup with his left hand and asked, "What?"

"You know what I'm talking about." Yang Buqi closed the door behind him casually, took two steps forward, and lowered his voice, "Xu Tuoran's quality appraisal results...you are simply making up things!"

"No." The young man didn't change his face, "That's what I 'saw'. Also, what are you doing with a straight face? Be careful not to scare Feifei."

Yang Buqi: "..."

He glanced at the right side of the young man, and slowed down his tone: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."

Turning his gaze back, he straightened his face again: "Stop coming. You know I can tell. And you made it up well, right? Xu Tuoran did show the ability to make cold, but you see What did you write—Jade Rabbit? Snow White? Which has something to do with natural disasters?"

"You can't say that." The young man said, "I ask you, where does Yutu live?"

Yang Buqi: "..."

Don't answer don't answer don't answer.

He desperately emphasized to himself in his heart, but he still couldn't help saying: "The moon."

Youth: "What's on the moon?"

Yang Buqi: "...Chang'e?"

Youth: "Where does Chang'e live?"

Yang Buqi: "... Guanghan Palace."

"Look, you said it yourself, Guanghan!" The young man slapped the table, "Isn't it perfect?"

Yang Buqi: "..."

He was sure the other party was talking nonsense. But the bad thing is, even if he knew that the other party was talking nonsense, he couldn't refute it.

"Sophistry" - this is one of the abilities of the high-level omniscient Pu Han. Once he is allowed to complete his own logic in the debate, others will no longer be able to question this logic.

To some extent, this can be said to be Yang Buqi's most hated ability, bar none.

"Okay, then let's not talk about natural disasters—what about 'chaos'?" Yang Buqi took a deep breath, "Xu Tuoran must have a chaotic tendency. I have seen with my own eyes that she can make multiple low-level abominations faint ...this tendency is dangerous and requires special attention, you can't just erase it..."

"First of all, how do you know that her ability must come from 'chaos'?" The young man looked over seriously, "How do you know that it's not your preconceived idea?"

Yang Buqi was stunned for a moment: "But I saw..."

"Yes, you said, she can make the abominable goofy. Then I wrote it too. She has the quality of 'Snow White' - what is the characteristic of Snow White? The group favorite. The heartthrob."

"The queen asked the hunter to kill her. Did the hunter kill her? No. She lived in the house of the seven dwarfs. Did the dwarves drive her away? No. No one who saw her would hurt her except the queen... Think about it, Isn't this quality close to what you call 'fainting'?"

Yang Buqi: …

No, your Snow White is strong enough to single out the boss?

Yang Buqi was speechless. If he hadn't seen Xu Tuoran being hunted down by companion creatures until his shoes were about to fly off, he might really believe it.

"Quality, Snow White. Ability is manifested as a passive group favorite and a heartthrob. Ability tendency is the eternal day that can affect the emotions of people and abominable things." The young man repeated it word by word, obviously it was all made up, but he Dazed, he read out an aura of "I am the truth".

"Look, isn't it all round?"

Yang Buqi: "..."

He was silent for a moment, then covered his face with his hands.

"You don't seem like someone who would do this kind of prank. Pu Han, what do you want to do?"

The young man smiled: "Don't ask me, Feifei did it. I'm only responsible for cleaning up for her."

He said, looking at his right hand tenderly, and said: "By the way, she asked me to tell you. Don't get too entangled in this matter, that girl can take care of herself."

"Also, there will be discounts in online pharmacies next month. If you need Suxiao Jiuxin Pills, you can take this opportunity to stock up."

Yang Buqi: "..."

Then I really thank her.

He thought for a while, and exhaled heavily, but his brows were still tightly locked.

Things have developed to this point, and he can see that Pu Han will not modify the appraisal results at all—and as the current ceiling among all-knowing people, the only "Hui"-level omniscient, he is indeed capable. Things have been covered up.

As long as he believes that Xu Tuoran's qualities are "Jade Rabbit" and "Snow White", then no matter how other omniscients "read", they will only see this result. Unless someone who is higher than him turns out to be...

In other words, he not only tampered with Xu Tuoran's identification results this time, but also changed all subsequent identification results.

...that's monopoly, a monstrous monopoly.

Yang Buqi glanced at him angrily, Pu Han took a sip of tea, and said quietly: "If you really want to pursue the truth so much, that's fine. Then I'll change it back—but if you want to change it, everyone Let’s change it together, if it’s real, it’s all real.”

He raised his eyes and looked at Yang Buqi: "Why don't I change your appraisal report back. Make up for the erased omniscient tendency, and update the data of life tendency... By the way, I remember that your life tendency was changed last year. Have you arrived at the 'torch'? What did you report to the superior? Why is it still a lamp? It's too dishonest."

Yang Buqi: …

His face changed slightly, and finally he closed his eyes forcefully.

"Are you sure you have no negative impact on Xu Tuoran?"

He confirmed to Pu Han again.

Pu Han shrugged: "I told you, it was changed by Feifei. But you can rest assured that Feifei likes her very much and will not harm her."

He said, looking behind Yang Buqi:

"If you don't believe me, ask her yourself. Feifei greeted her earlier."

Yang Buqi: ...?

He turned his head belatedly, and met Xu Tuoran's slightly embarrassed eyes.

Xu Tuoran maintained the posture of pushing the door in, raised his hand and waved: "...Hi."

Yang Buqi patted his forehead with one hand: "No, wait...God, why are you here?"

"Someone sent a message to invite me to dinner." Xu Tuoran was very sincere.

She was bored by being alone, and was aroused by this anonymous text message, so she asked to take a look.

The text message also emphasized that there is no need to knock on the door when you come, just go in directly. Out of curiosity, she followed suit and ended up eating a mouthful of melon.

Still Yang Buqi's melon.

Wow.

Yang Buqi looked over with a complicated expression, and Xu Tuoran quickly raised his hand: "Don't look at me, I didn't hear anything, and I don't care if I heard it. You don't need to pay me for hush money, of course, if you really want to, I can still do it anyway Take it."

She turned her eyes around the box, finally landed on the dining table, and changed the subject very naturally: "Why are there four sets of tableware?"

"Because there are four people." Pu Han said with a smile, "Okay, everyone is here. It's time to start dinner-I treat this meal as a welcome for the newcomers. Keep the door open. In three minutes, the waiter will bring soup. , it’s inconvenient to get up and open the door.”

The implication is that Yang Buqi was counted in the number of diners from the very beginning.

Xu Turan looked at the four sets of tableware on the table with interest, and was still thinking about where the fourth person was and who "Feifei" was. The young man sitting on the main seat had already looked over and pointed to his right hand. side position.

"Can you sit here?" he asked.

Xu Turan didn't understand why, but he sat down anyway. As soon as he sat down, he felt his left hand being grabbed.

...?

She lowered her head in surprise, seeing the young man's right hand grasping her left hand, and after holding it, she shook it back and forth in a good mood.

Xu Tuoran: "...???"

She stared at the black-gloved hand, thinking carefully about the suitability of the current scene to workplace harassment, and whether to swing a teacup or a chair.

Before she could make up her mind, the palm of her hand suddenly itched slightly—that hand, unexpectedly flexed its fingers and scratched her palm.

Xu Tuoran: ...it's decided, swing the table.

She closed her eyes, and was about to get up and lift the table, when she suddenly heard the young man next to her say "Hey".

Afterwards, he stretched out his left hand and pulled his right hand carefully, with a face full of tears and laughter.

"I'm so sorry, I messed around without looking at her... Ah, by the way, we haven't introduced ourselves yet."

He grabbed his right hand back on the table and gently peeled off the black glove.

Under the glove, is a very beautiful hand.

His five fingers are long and slender, his complexion is cold and white, and he is as smooth as fine porcelain. The nails are neatly manicured and decorated with delicate and beautiful orchid nails.

On the wrist of that hand was a gemstone bracelet, and on the ring finger was a low-key diamond ring.

"My name is Pu Han, and I'm also the judge of your quality results this time. With me, you don't have to worry about being exposed." The young man said indifferently, looked at his right hand again, and his tone suddenly became gentle.

"This is my wife, Feifei. You've met before."

As if responding to his words, the right hand that was lying quietly on the table immediately lifted up, and waved happily at Xu Tuoran.

Xu Turan: ...

She raised her eyebrows slightly, and slowly let go of the fingers that had been pressing on the edge of the table, and waved towards that hand hesitantly.

The beautiful right hand was even happier, and it raised up to show her heart.

Xu Tuoran: ...

To be honest, before this, she was always worried about what to do if the people here found out that their brains were abnormal and they were taken in as patients.

But now, she felt that she was thinking too much.

This place, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, who doesn't have anyone—Compared to the person opposite, she feels that she is so normal!

Whether it was Xu Tuoran or Yang Buqi, they all ate this meal with some absent-mindedness.

Xu Tuoran has been thinking about "Feifei". I tried to ask twice, but Pu Han changed the topic without any trace, so I stopped asking more questions wisely, and turned to brainstorming vigorously. The train of thought drifts from "dual personality" to "ghost upper body", and the more you love it, the more curious you become.

And Yang Buqi... he was still thinking about the change of Xu Tuoran's appraisal result, and he was threatened again before, so he couldn't calm down for a while.

The only ones who eat relaxed and happy are Pu Han and his "Feifei". He eats with his left hand, while his right hand is always by his side to "play" himself. Sometimes she would stand up, use her **** and index finger as her feet, and walk along the edge of the table for a while, sometimes she would pick up chopsticks, and pick up vegetables for Pu Han and Xu Turan for a while.

It's even more for Xu Tuoran. And I don't know if it was intentional or not, but what she picked up was exactly what Xu Tuan likes to eat.

Xu Tuoran was amazed, and sighed again, the previous self was really a frog in a well.

What does it mean to be truly sick!

"Okay, I'm full." Not long after eating, Pu Han put down his chopsticks, "I'm going back, you guys can take care of the rest."

"Huh?" Xu Tuoran was a little surprised, and turned to look at the ordered menu on the table, "But there are still two dishes that haven't been served..."

"It's for the two of you. It just happens to be what you like to eat." Pu Han gracefully wiped the corners of his mouth, then carefully wiped his left hand with a wet towel, and then put the glove on his right hand.

"As for the matter between me and Feifei, I don't want to recall it in front of her. If you are really curious, you can ask Yang Buqi—oh yes. Feifei has something else to ask me to bring to you."

He got up and walked halfway, then turned around again.

"She said that tomorrow's moon is very round, which is a day suitable for dreaming. Before going to sleep, remember to put your newly bought mirror on the bedside - and, your network cable has been pulled enough. Why don't you think about the chance of whoring for nothing Other needs. Like my boyfriend... well, she was talking about me. She forgot that we were married."

Pu Han smiled embarrassedly, and continued: "Someone like 'I' may come in handy, you can consider it."

Xu Turan's eyes widened slightly, and then he seemed to understand something, and frowned slightly. Seeing this, Pu Han didn't say anything more, and bid farewell to the two of them again.

The moment he turned around, the right hand was raised again, and across his shoulder, he made another heartfelt gesture towards Xu Tuoran.

Xu Tuoran was amused, raised his hand and returned one. When he looked back, he happened to meet Yang Buqi's slightly complicated gaze.

"Are you going on a blind date?" he asked.

Xu Tuoran was puzzled: "Of course not. What are you thinking?"

"No, because he just... forget it." Yang Buqi coughed, put down his chopsticks, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"As for Feifei's prophecy, my suggestion is to listen to it selectively. She is a 'Hui'-level foresighter, and the things she foresees rarely go wrong, but on the other hand...you can also see that she is not alive after all. People, the three views have somewhat changed, and the choices they make are unlikely to be wrong, but they may not be suitable for human beings."

"Forecaster?" Xu Tuoran put down his chopsticks, "But isn't she an abomination?"

"Her situation is quite special." Yang Buqi explained, "I don't know exactly how it became like this. But there is no doubt that she is not an abomination... She was already on the verge of degeneration at that time. In order not to let her completely Turned into a monster, her husband Pu Han performed some operations to stop her transformation process."

This is a very bold attempt for both Pu Han and human beings. Judging from the results, it should be considered a success—part of Feifei's human consciousness was transferred to her right hand, and then grafted onto Pu Han's body.

In the end, she survived in this way, and achieved a magical symbiosis with Pu Han, while also retaining her self-awareness and the ability to be a high-level predictor.

She is not an abomination. There is no desire to kill, no need to eat people, no natural malice towards humans—but her current state, obviously, cannot be counted as a living person.

"As for Feifei's existence, the organization is still studying it." Yang Buqi said, "The case of her and Pu Han is too difficult to reproduce. They are childhood sweethearts, and no one knows each other better, and they are both independent. The high level of the field... But once the research is successful, it will be of great value to the capable person."

"Yes." Xu Tuoran nodded, "If it were me, I would be willing to become a mouthless hand that grows on someone else."

This is said to be a bit yin and yang. Yang Buqi glanced at her and sighed: "At that time, it was not bad to be able to achieve such an ending. Feifei is a high-level ability user. Once she starts to degenerate, even if she dies, she will become a very troublesome abomination... At that time, all organizations were experiencing great turmoil and could not afford more shocks and sacrifices."

Xu Tuoran was pondering over the hint that "Feifei" gave her, when he heard Yang Buqi say this, his heart suddenly moved.

"The big turmoil you mentioned...was it five years ago?"

Yang Buqi glanced at her and asked, "Su Sui'er told you?"

"I forgot who said it. I just happened to hear it." Xu Tuoran did not betray Su Sui'er very righteously.

...Although she guessed that Yang Buqi should also be able to hear the truth.

Yang Buqi gave her a funny look, turned the table, and turned a stack of stewed eggplants in front of Xu Turan—he remembered that when Feifei was serving Xu Turan's vegetables, this was her favorite.

"It's okay. I guess she will say it too. There is nothing to hide about it. As long as you get into the circle, you will know sooner or later."

Yang Buqi paused for a moment and considered his words.

"You guessed right. And Feifei was actually one of the victims of the accident five years ago."

"What the **** is that?" Xu Tuoran asked curiously, not even noticing that he was caught in a cloud of air.

"Su Sui'er only told me that this incident was caused by the Charity Institute, and it eventually affected the entire circle of capable people."

"...Her words are not pleasant, but they are true." Yang Buqi pursed his lips, "You should already know that the two tendencies of 'order' and 'precognition' are unique to human beings, right? ?”

"Yeah." Xu Tueran nodded, "However, order is the most effective thing now. For some reason, 'Precognition' hasn't reached a high level for a long time."

"To be precise, it's been the past five years, and there hasn't been a high-level one." Yang Buqi said, "Furthermore, 'precognition' and 'order' are the main research directions of ability users."

"Among them, Tzu Chi Yuan focused on 'prediction', and Renxin Yuan focused on 'order'. At that time, apart from these two larger organizations, there were also many small organizations, each of which had one or two 'Hui' level abilities as leaders. .”

"That's right... At that time, only the 'Hui' level was the highest among ability users. People spent a lot of effort and resources to finally create a 'Chen' level five years ago."

Xu Tuoran paused: "The 'Chen' level, from the Tzu Chi Institute? And it's 'Precognition'?"

Yang Buqi nodded.

Xu Tuoran: "Then what did he foresee?"

"No one knows." Yang Buqi shook his head, "Because he betrayed humans not long after he completed the upgrade."

"—and dragged a large number of high-level ability users into the water and buried him with him."
