Soul Trigger

Chapter 282 Servants

Projection is extraordinary, second order.

Sensing the spiritual fluctuations of the other party, Ji Li's inexplicable smile became even wider:

This person directly reached the second stage of extraordinary projection.

This is exactly the power infusion of Ji Li's [Nest Transmission].

Although the music boy only obtained his most basic [Faceless Bone] ability, he directly skipped the stage of ordinary awakeners and reached the realm of the extraordinary second level.

At this moment, the guitar player was looking at his hands in horror, clenching his bony claws and backing away:

"What is this?! What did you do to me...?!"

"Help you save money on buying guitar picks in the future?" Ji Li leaned against the wall beside him, smiled and fiddled with the guitar twice in the air:
"Your hand will never be damaged even if you play bang bang."

The guitar man obviously didn't understand Ji Li's joke, or he didn't have time to understand such things.

His confused mind thought of what happened in the subway just now, and he clenched his bone claws tightly:
"…What does this mean for me?"

“It means you have entered the entertainment industry of Gaoxing Group and are on the path to your dreams without having to become a street performer.”

These words only made the man's heart skip a beat.

You've got what you wanted, isn't that enough?
As for the rest, why should you care so much?

He should have understood this when the other party revealed his identity as a chaebol.

But is it really just that?

Although Ji Li is not a chaebol, it does not prevent him from thinking that Ji Li is a chaebol.

The guitar man was silent. At this moment, the hands suddenly began to cover the flesh and gradually returned to their original appearance.

It seemed that because the strangeness faded away, the familiar hands returned, which slightly eased his fear of the unknown:

"I...I understand. This is the price, right?"

"It's okay if you understand it this way. In a sense, it's even a good thing for you."

"Do you know how many people want this kind of power but can't get it? Lucky one."

Ji Li's voice echoed in his ears, and the guitar man suddenly felt that the light behind him was blocked.

Turning back, I saw a man wearing a black windbreaker and covered up tightly standing behind me. I was immediately startled:
"you……"

"Just follow the established procedures." Ji Li said calmly to the Special Management Bureau agent who appeared.

"learn."

The agent responded, made way, and pointed to the road with one hand:

"Sir, please."

Following the space made by the other party, in addition to the chaebol's luxury business car, there was a large SUV with flashing police lights on the side of the road.

"You are... the police?!"

The guitar man was a little surprised, but the uneasiness in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"He will tell you what you should know. If you want to know something beyond the rules..."

Ji Li raised his fingers and tapped his ears lightly:

"I'll hear it."

The bewildered man followed the Special Management Bureau agent into the SUV. With the engine roaring, they left one after another with the Gaoxing Group's vehicle.

As the spirit of a person who holds a contaminated relic and has mistakenly entered the spirit prison, he will go through a set of confidentiality agreement procedures that the Special Management Bureau uses to deal with ordinary people coming into contact with evil.

The only difference is that this person became one of Ji Li's "nests" because of a little experiment that came to his mind on a whim.

To target those people who possess contaminated personality relics, the Special Management Bureau has mobilized agents from various branches across the city to contact and recover them.

After a few days, we have a relatively mature analysis report:

First of all, these personality relics, just like the black box can be used directly, the human spirit can also be directly triggered and used, but certain conditions are required.

It is either triggered by the desires of the holder himself, or it is passively triggered when the evil spirit inside the contaminated personality relic escapes after being left for a period of time.

Current reports indicate that there have been cases of contaminated relics being used by owners for criminal purposes.

There have also been reports of people holding pollutants being corrupted by this thing and turned into something evil without knowing it.

In short, it is only a matter of time before the contaminated relics explode.

Faced with the city full of pollutants, Ji Li, in order to test his ability of [Swarm Transmission], of course, was looking for those who hold the pollutants like airdropping.

Without exception, all of these pollutant holders are able to accept his power.

Although they will suffer from excruciating pain to some extent, they can all become awakened and carry his power, and their realms and the seeds of power they obtain are different.

Including the guitar man just now, eight people have accepted his power so far.

Two people gained the ability of the faceless bone, one person gained the ability to enter dreams, and five people gained no abilities at all, but were able to control spiritual essence, and the four dimensions they manifested were different.

Ji Li guessed that these five people might have obtained one of his thinking amplification abilities.

The guitar man was the first one to reach the second level directly after gaining the ability, and is considered the champion among these little Karamis.

But without exception, none of them underwent a transformation like the Black Box, and some even gained neither of the two abilities.

So after the first few attempts, he no longer took the initiative to contact her and planned to make a decision after meeting Jasmine.

He would only deal with those that hit his face, like the guitar man today.

In addition to these people, Ji Li also conditionally screened some human spirits that had not come into contact with the contaminated personality relics for testing.

As a result, almost no one could accept his power, and the moment he activated it, their souls would show signs of disintegration, except for one person.

The cleaner of Aries College.

Because Ji Li lived in the school, he was affiliated with the school work department and also lived in the school. As the sweeper in charge of security during holidays, he gradually became familiar with him.

The two of them got along pretty well, and to Ji Li, this little brother was an acquaintance in school.

So Ji Li found a reason to implant power into him, and the sweeper actually gained the ability of the Blade Master——

Although it can only make the things in his hands sharper.

This made Ji Li have a guess -

People who are “close” to you are more likely to accept your power.

There was nothing Yan Xiyu and Tuzi Niu'er could do. It must be because their realms were too high and the trinity of their souls was already stable.

As for the black box, it was evil and should be considered a special case. The other Jasmine who appeared in his special perception was a clerk and her ability level was not strong.

In other words, this ability cannot be used on awakened people who have already become successful, but it can be used to mass-produce awakened people or even discover seeds with potential.

The phenomenon of "close relationship" is defined by a certain school of thought in soul psychology as a specific term, called "emotional entanglement."

If the "human subconscious" is a social software, then people who are familiar with you and have a good relationship with you will naturally add each other as friends.

Going a step further, at the level of friends, close friends, and family, the emotional entanglement between the two parties will be deeper.

Extending to the field of soul psychology related to "awakening aura", these people are more deeply entangled in emotions with the human spiritual subject, and are more likely to pry open the emotions and desires of the human spiritual subject.

This leads to the emergence of the awakening aura, that is, "awakening".

So what does this have to do with contaminated relics?

Ji Li speculated that people who possessed these contaminated relics would develop unnecessary "emotional entanglements" with themselves from a soul psychology perspective.

In other words, to establish this connection with the owner of the red beetle.

Therefore, even if Ji Li and the other party did not know each other, let alone be acquaintances, he could directly inject the seeds of power into him and develop [Nest Transmission].

Extending to the contaminated relic itself, perhaps the longer the "potential recipient" carries the contaminated relic, the greater the degree to which he can accept Ji Li's power.

The most terrifying thing about this kind of "transmission" is that after the human soul receives the transmission, the emotional entanglement between it and Ji Li will quickly become serious.

If at the beginning, the other party and Ji Li were just acquaintances, they were able to plant the seeds and complete the transmission.

Then after receiving the seeds, he will recognize Ji Li as a very important person in a very short time.

Different human spirits have different thoughts, so this "very important person" may appear in various forms.

Including but not limited to: the grace of rebirth, adoptive father, the love of one's life, master, a boss who is more worthy of respect than a father, a lover who is more worthy of love than a husband, etc.

If it was that old man from the school, in his heart, Ji Li would soon change from "the most well-behaved student in the school" to "my grandson born to someone else."

Moreover, this transformation is subtle and takes place deep within the human spirit according to the principles of soul psychology. Both the manifestation and the transformation are extremely natural.

So the young musician just now will still feel uneasy and scared at first, but he will calm down in a very short time.

However, Black Box, which has a very high favorable impression of itself, does not seem to show any change.

However, when it comes to "fireworks", there is a conflict:

According to Ji Li's speculation, the time of carrying the contaminated relic affects the degree to which the human spirit accepts one's own power.

But they are after all the relics and fragments of personality, and as ordinary people get along with these things day by day, their spirits will gradually be corrupted into evil. Or due to various accidents, the evil spirit inside will escape and affect other spirit hells or wandering evil spirits.

In other words, if nothing is done, these "potential recipients" produced in large quantities by "fireworks" will become time-limited.

Considering this from another perspective, it's like planting wheat. If you don't harvest it, the wheat will wither and rot in large areas.

Ji Li was also thinking about one thing. Since "fireworks" are an act of expanding the colony, can he take the initiative to release the fireworks?

But it's still a bit long time to think about this now, and his research on this ability has only just begun.

It is worth mentioning that the existence into which he can implant power will generally trigger strange vibrations of the soul trigger under the transmission of his nest.

This is also a means of perceiving "potential recipients" in addition to the "star map".

The amplitude of vibration varies according to the amount of force received.

Ji Li closed his eyes, and two sensing star maps given by the nest appeared in his mind.

The first one is a star map that provides an overview of all the contaminated relics. Its power consumption is extremely terrifying. Even if Ji Li draws electricity, he cannot open it and see the entire city.

The second photo was the one that originally only showed Black Box and Jasmine, with their stars tightly surrounding a huge blue star cluster.

In addition to the light, there was also mist rising from the star cluster, representing Ji Li himself.

Currently, Jasmine's is a dull grey dot, while the black box's is a bright red one, as if it has been lit up.

In addition, there are now eight special small white dots in this star map, which are located far away from Ji Li as the center.

As Ji Li probed his consciousness into it, he heard one or two voices.

Eavesdropping on psychological activities can only be sensed when the other party's emotions fluctuate violently, and it is not effective throughout the entire process. Strictly speaking, this ability is more like a function used to detect the person being communicated with.

But if the person being transmitted tries to call him, he will hear the other party's voice, but there is a certain distance limit, which currently seems to be within the range of half of Aurora City.

It should be based on the reaction range of your soul trigger and be amplified to a certain extent. As you become stronger, this range will also increase accordingly.

He named the first map "Proliferation Perception", which is used to detect the location of contaminated relics on a large scale, that is, to directly observe potential recipients.

The second picture is named [Servant Network].

"Is it done?"

Misha's voice came from his ear. Ji Li opened his eyes and saw the rabbit girl with a teasing look on her face:

"Didn't we agree to take a vacation? Why are you arresting people while we're on vacation?"

"It's all over your face, why don't you just deal with it?"

"...You really are becoming more and more like someone from the Special Management Bureau." Misha leaned over and supported herself on him, gently hitting Ji Li's shoulder.

Ji Li picked up the guitar pick and removed the yellow and black hard sticker on the outside. Inside was a small rusty iron sheet:
[Personality Fragment: Hollow Throat Pouch]

[Soul Quality: Incomplete]

[Features: Voice pattern resonance. Use sound to attract evil and human spirits. Different rhythm combinations will lead to different results.]

【Cannot be materialized.】

[A strange power remains in the relic of this personality]
-
"Tsk, this guy is really lucky..."

The shadow spirit in Misha's eyes gradually dissipated, and through her identification ability, she also knew the function of this thing.

If you play the guitar with this thing, you probably won't even know how you died. No wonder the music played by this thing can attract so many people to stop and watch.

"Give it to you?"

"Ah... I don't want to. Who knows if this unlucky thing has some weird stuff from the King of Predators on it."

Misha rejected it with disdain, but stared at Ji Li with blinking eyes:

"I'm not saying anything, Old Ji, but you seem to have really become more attractive recently?"

Ji Li stared into the gray eyes of the bunny girl, which reflected his current appearance:
The affinity attribute increased dramatically, and once again it was reflected in the body itself, which could indeed be considered to have become better looking.

If reflected in Ji Li's own physical sensation, the mobilization of spiritual essence has become smoother and the use of some abilities has been deepened.

For example, the number of skulls released by the Wraith Darkbone now is as many as that of the Storm, and the evil spirit's appearance after releasing the Proverbs has become more solid.

The volume of mycelium expansion and division is smaller and denser, and it spreads farther. The number of collisions required for Yama Jinmie's ability to purify spiritual essence is reduced, the Heart Blade is sharper, and so on.

In human form, I get more attention on the street. In recent ability tests, when communicating with ordinary people, the other party is often very enthusiastic and the communication is very smooth.

He looked at Bunny Girl:

"Then give me a kiss?"

The rabbit blushed:
"Tsk...no, it's almost the same if you kiss me!"

At this time, Ji Li's phone was called again. It was Yan Xiyu.

The moment the call was connected, a gleam of light flashed in Bunny Girl's eyes, and she hugged Ji Li's arm:
"Oppa, let me give you a kiss~~~~~~"

Ji Li: “???”

The person on the other end of the receiver said, "Stop pretending. Only one person can make such a disgusting sound..."

Of course Misha heard it, but she ignored him and went straight to Ji Li:
"Oppa, where's my little gift?"

"Oh my god, I want to talk to Ji Li about serious matters!"

"Tsk, you must be jealous."

Misha let go of Ji Li with a groan.

Yan Xiyu rubbed his temples, his veins throbbing:

"Why don't you come over yet?"

"I came here just to have dinner with the rabbit. There was a little incident just now."

"I saw it on the hidden website. He was singing for money, right?"

Ji Li raised his eyebrows:
"Aren't you at work? There are so many messages on the Internet, and you only pick mine to read?"

Yan Xiyu, who was standing opposite her, instantly looked up and saw the PDA in front of her, which recorded Ji Li's various schedules with Bunny Girl this afternoon. She covered it with a guilty conscience:
"I don't!"

"…You don't usually talk like this, so that means you have it."

"I told you I didn't!"

"Okay, I'll come over in a minute. Can I pack a portion for you?"

"I don't have time to eat. I'm busy."

"Then I will go eat with Rabbit..."

"Great!" cheered the rabbit.

"and many more!"

Yan Xiyu squeezed his palm fiercely:
"I'm still a little hungry, please bring me one..."

"Tsk, you really understand."

Ji Li hung up the phone and saw the bunny girl next to him laughing silly. He raised his hand and tapped her gray hair:
"Why are you grinning like an idiot? Call me brother again."

Misa blushed:
"……don't want!"

Then he glanced at his head:
"Humph... You have the nerve to tell your brothers such an embarrassing thing! Aren't you ashamed..."

"Then let's go eat." Ji Li turned and left.

"Hey, if you beg me a little more, maybe I'll scream!"

After a moment, Ji Li glanced at Misha, who was deliberately hanging a few steps behind him. The latter was pinching her ring finger and mumbling something under her breath. Immediately, his eyebrows narrowed and he turned his head back to normal.

(Why are you in such a hurry? If you can’t get out, won’t you still have to listen to me in the future?)
(I won’t, I won’t, I won’t, it will make you so anxious, hahaha!)

(You’re so angry now, won’t you be even more unbearable when I kiss Old Ji in the future?)

(Huh? You can just watch from inside then. You’ll be using my eyes anyway, which will give you a sense of first-person immersion…)
Snapped! ! !
The sudden noise made Ji Li stop and he turned around again. He saw a big red handprint on Bunny Girl's face, standing there in a daze.

The right hand with the ring was hanging in the air after being slapped in the face, at an angle completely contrary to the body.

Ji Li: "...What are you doing?"

Misa grabbed her right hand with her left hand and pulled it back suddenly, her mouth moving twice:

"Hit...hit the mosquito."

Ji Li glanced at the trash can next to her. There was not even a fly to be seen in this weather. It was only because she was wearing the wrong outfit for the season.

Bunny Girl was glaring fiercely at the ring on her right ring finger, her lips silently moving into the "shit" mode.

Ji Li: “…”

One inside and one outside, the relationship is pretty good.

But now it seems that although Bai Misa cannot enter the real world at will, if she is really annoyed by the rabbit, she can still struggle a little?
