After hesitating for a while, he took 8 steps back, then he sprinted and jumped forward to the 4th floor of the casino. After landing, he rolled to unload the force and hid behind the air conditioner.
However, Fang Lin didn’t grasp the balance when he landed. As a result, his palms were rubbed off, feeling a burning pain.
He gritted his teeth and took out some water from the Space to rinse the wound, then he tied a black rope to the shelf next to him and swung downward.
From the perspective of [Drone], it could be seen that most of the people in the casino were attracted by the gunfight outside, the corridor on the 3rd floor was empty. Fang Linyan’s goal was the 2nd room, because Roth, who had lost a leg, was sent there for treatment.
This guy was severely damaged by Licker, and he was also infected by the virus. Of course, the contractor would not become a zombie, but it was also very serious. All his basic attributes had dropped while suffering from the statuses of disease, infection, etc.
For Fang Linyan, it was obviously the best opportunity to kill him.
But just as he tiptoed over, he suddenly noticed that on the floor in front of him, a strange light green flame suddenly flashed, then the flame started to jump and spread, forming a line of small words on the floor,
“Joint trial? Wrench? Nod if yes.”
Fang Linyan was startled. He immediately calmed down and nodded.
Immediately afterward, the flames changed again,
“There is a trap ahead, don’t go. You come to the corridor to the 5th floor.”
Fang Linyan was stunned for a moment. He was also very skilled and daring. Relying on the strong survivability of [Athena’s Blessing] and the [Drone]’s stun grenade, he knew the other party couldn’t do anything to him even if it was a trap. What’s more, he even called out his name!
So he did what he said.
After arriving on the 5th floor, Fang Linyan saw a strange-looking person walking back and forth anxiously. As soon as he saw Fang Linyan coming, he immediately ran over excitedly and said,
“Boss Wrench, it really is you!”
When Fang Linyan saw this man running over without defense, he knew that the other party was not malicious, and he couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard his name.
Because in his impression, no one had ever added “boss” before the word Wrench… but he sounded quite familiar to him.
So he was stunned and said,
“You are?”
The man gave an “oh” and said,
“Right, I forgot that I entered the world with a disguised appearance. I am Goat! Boss Wrench!”
“Go… Goat?” After Fang Linyan was stunned for a while, his memory was immediately triggered. The bits and pieces of the previous joint trial suddenly surfaced in his memories.
“Don’t… don’t get me wrong! I just wanted to ask you if you have a team.”
“The slot to the Black market, it doesn’t matter. I’ll give it to you.”
“Eh, the things about my girlfriend is a long story. In short, I wish her happiness.”
“Are you going to buy something? I’m good at this, let me deal with the plot characters!”
“Boss Wrench, you have to watch out for Wild Cat, he… cough…”
“I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!!!”
“…”
Fang Linyan never expected that he would meet an acquaintance here. A rare warmth came from his heart. He smiled,
“I didn’t expect to meet you here, how are you now?”
Goat looked left and right, then he pulled Fang Linyan into the room beside and said with a wry smile,
“To be honest, not very good.”
Fang Linyan wondered,
“Didn’t you get selected? This is the talent that the Space is eager to get, why you seem so unhappy?”
Goat sighed and said,
“Boss Wrench, the chosen one just means that the talent needed by the Space has been awakened, but it does not mean that the talent is strong!”
Fang Linyan was about to refute that the talent needed for Space was not strong enough? Suddenly, he remembered the example given by the black antique phone where a guy with an inverted sense of smell was the chosen one?
Ahem, this kind of talent is really not helpful in combat.
So Fang Linyan changed his words,
“Ahem, then what is your talent? You don’t have to tell me if it’s inconvenient.”
Goat said sadly,
“What’s so inconvenient? My talent is language parsing. To put it simply, I can understand the meaning of words, movements, and gestures when I see them… No wonder when I was doing business, I learned the local languages so quick; I also got the first in English for every year.”
Fang Linyan wondered,
“What does the Space need your ability for?”
Goat said,
“Have you heard of the era of great voyages on Earth? The universe is vast. Noah Space itself is actually equivalent to a self-sufficient giant expedition ship. Most of the time, it is traveling while searching for the needed minerals, energy, etc.”
“If my ability grows, it can help some existences in the universe: such as powerful Star Beast, Time Worm, shadow creatures and other strange life forms to communicate and barter for the Space.”
Fang Linyan said in surprise,
“Woah? This… This really subverts my cognition. The Space is almost omnipotent.”
Goat said,
“No, as far as I know so far, Noah Space should be a creation left over from a extinct top cosmic civilization. It is used to select and cultivate powerful warriors. Uhm, like the aircraft carriers similar to those on Earth, their main combat power come from the powerful warriors under their command.”
“It has its own combat power, but it doesn’t focus on it. In fact, the Space and some higher civilizations also have limited cooperation. Remember the Star Consortium that runs the black market? They are only cooperative with Space.”
“The Space still has absolute suppression on those strange life forms in the universe, but it cannot guarantee that it will be able to kill the opponent. Even if it kills the opponent, the loss caused by the opponent before death is greater than the final benefit. It’s not worth it. After that, it’s my showtime.”
Fang Linyan nodded slightly and said,
“I see. I’m clear now.”
Speaking of which, he said curiously,
“I remember seeing it somewhere, didn’t the higher lifeforms communicate directly with telekinesis? They can just get rid of the language.”
Goat nodded and said,
“Yes, but telekinesis can only be used between acquaintances, friends, relatives, or the strength gap between the 2 parties is too large. The strong party can also force to use telekinesis on the weaker party.”
“This method is not used against powerful and unfamiliar creatures, because letting go of the mind barrier means that some creatures with powerful minds can attack directly through this gap or even enslave it!”
“The existence of Space at the top of the cosmic food chain must be afraid by those strange lifeforms in the universe. They won’t easily let go of the mind barrier.”
Fang Linyan said seriously,
“Understood, since this is the case, the Space needs talents like you, so there is no reason they won’t give you some advantages.”
Goat smiled wryly,
“Haiz, speaking of which, my luck is actually pretty good. In the first world I went, the Space categorized me as a Tier B chosen one, so it gave me 3 prayer coins. Only I can use them. After using, I must give clear descriptions of the wish that fit the current environment.”
“Of course, it’s like the kind of wish that I wish to replace with 3 wishes. I wish to become the master of the Space. I wish to become invincible in the universe. This wish is definitely impossible. If it is used properly, I can even change my own destiny.”
“After I entered the first world, I used a wish coin. As a result, I got an extra prompt of getting a strange scroll by chance.”
“This scroll is written in a lost Qibala language that only I can understand. Even the Space can’t identify it.”
“What is recorded on this scroll is called the forbidden bloodline art. After I cast it, as long as I get fresh blood of the relevant creature, I can inherit its bloodline.”
Fang Linyan took a deep breath,
“This kind of preferential treatment… is very powerful! Even if you go solo and find a wolf to kill, you can still obtain a powerful bloodline like werewolf!”
“If it really doesn’t work, a cockroach or an ant could work too.”
Goat said in agony,
“I’m not sure about cockroach and ant, but I thought about wolf. Then, I got some money and hired a hunter to hunt a healthy and strong beast.”
“I really got lucky that day. He actually caught a very rare Elite Frost Wolf with a trap! Even the local lord paid a lot of money to buy its wolf skin, and it can trigger additional side mission.”
“This white wolf is extremely tenacious. We spent half an hour and finally exhausted it, but we took too long, so the smell of blood attracted a one-eyed giant who came out to hunt. It actually took me and the hunter straight away!”
After Fang Linyan heard this, he let out a long sigh, hating why he didn’t have such a chance. He said helplessly,
“So you used the second prayer coin here in order to survive?”
Goat said helplessly with a bitter face,
“Do I have any other options?”
At this moment, Goat’s bitter face could only make Fang Linyan cover his face. At this moment, he suddenly thought of the innocent expression of Huang Qifa, the inspector of the major crime team in “Running Out of Time”, and he found that the 2 were similar…
