Conan's grammatical investigator

Destiny coin.

As soon as he heard this word, Qin Zhibo always felt that some dead memories were attacking him.

However, this "fate coin" is not simply adding blood or deducting blood, but a real change of fate.

50% probability.
Once thrown, the gods cannot change it.
Qin Zhibo thought for a while, although this item is very cheap, but for himself who is only 35 lucky, there is no "salvation", only "destined death".

If it's Mao Lilan's strong luck, maybe.
Qin Zhibo glanced back at Mao Lilan in the ward, and thought that if the erosion of the dream of the king in yellow really came to a critical moment, it would not be too late to use it.

I just don’t know if [Fate Coin] is the only one who can throw it
After watching the first prop, Qin Zhibo turned his attention to the next one.

【A glass bottle】

[From the hand of the great magician of the era of untraceable origin]

[Its original purpose was to bring eternal torture to competitors]

【Even if the body has been annihilated, the soul cannot be reborn in the bottle】

[The stronger the magic power of the holder, the more souls can be accommodated in the bottle]

[A free soul cannot be locked!One day, we will break out of the prison——a prison breaker]

[Price: 5000 general skill proficiency]

This is a prop used to torture people's souls, but Qin Zhibo thought of another use.

Generally speaking, most people's souls dissipate after death.

But if this prop is used to trap a person's soul, will the person's spirit never be extinguished?
Thinking about it further, it is not impossible to find a body lacking a soul through some means, and resurrect the person.

It's just that the matter of imprisoning a person's soul and then resurrecting it is full of too many uncertainties.

For example, the last sentence in the introduction, it seems that the soul locked in a glass bottle will have a certain sense of resistance.

The more souls there are in the glass bottle, the stronger this sense of resistance will be, eventually breaking through the shackles of the glass bottle.

So this thing is still a dangerous prop.

The third prop.

【Magic Flute】

[Taboo of a monastery family]

【Own this thing, you will dream of a red swineherd in the silent night】

[Try to play the same tune as the swineherd, and the rats will use it for you]

【Even if they come from the wall.】

【"Hey! Keep playing, maybe all the players in the invisible palace will invite you to join the group!"】

[Price: 7777 general skill proficiency]

The second prop is related to "Jerry", which seems to be a prop that can control rats.

However, the price of this prop is very high, and the specific effect has many uncertainties.

For example, how many mice can be controlled at one time, to what extent, and what if there are no mice in the surrounding environment?
In short, this prop belongs to the future, but the high price and the uncertainty of the effect are not suitable for priority purchase.

The fourth prop.

【Sword of Oath Keeper】

[A sword crafted from Valyrian steel]

[Swear to this sword, you will gain the courage and determination to move forward]

[This sword will also gain the ability to cut through demons and heretics because of your oath]

【Remember!Once an oath is made, it cannot be broken! 】

[Those who break the oath will be punished by the gods! 】

【"I swear by the old and new gods!"】

[Price: 12000 general skill proficiency]

This is a head-on confrontation weapon that can be used.

After the holy sword of physics—the crowbar, this is the second weapon Qin Zhibo has encountered that has the ability to attack.

Compared with the mediocre crowbar, this oath-keeping sword itself has effects.

As long as you make an oath, your own will can be improved to a certain extent, and your immunity to mental attacks can be improved.

And the Oathkeeper Sword itself will also gain the ability to fight against demons and heretics.

This thing is quite attractive to Qin Zhibo.

Although crowbars are good, they can generally only hit humans, or pry a door or something.

However, the Sword of Oath Keeper has an increasing effect on the holder and the sword itself, and it also has additional lethality against demons and heretics.

Qin Zhibo remembered that one of his skills included kendo. If he practiced kendo and combined with the Oath Keeping Sword, he should be able to subdue demons and demons without difficulty.

What if it kills Mi-Go?
In Qin Zhibo's mind, this idea unconsciously popped up.

According to the currently known information, the sprayer is the most lethal to Mi-Go.

However, the sprayer is too large to be suitable for frontal conflicts, and it is only suitable for sneak attacks in narrow spaces.

If there is Oathkeeper, can you just cut off Mi-Go's head?
Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo shook his head, temporarily putting aside this idea that came out of nowhere.

Next up is the fifth and final item of the week.

【Curse of Blood Origin】

[The mysterious curse spread in the lost ancient capital "Yanan" area]

【Those who are cursed will receive the grace of blood originating from the blood of the ancient gods】

【Since it is a curse, it must suffer】

【Under the indescribable power, your dreams will be connected with the ancient gods】

[The more times you receive grace, the more your spirit will fall into it]

【"Foreigner, the blood will give you rebirth, and the blood will give you madness! What choice will you make?"]

[Price: 22000 general skill proficiency]

This is the most expensive item this week, and it is also the item that puzzles Qin Zhibo the most.

It sounds like a deal to pay a certain price and get a part of great power.

The so-called part of the great power is the "grace of blood", which can heal serious injuries on the body, even fatal injuries seem to be healed.

The so-called paying the price means that the dreams will be synchronized with the ancient gods, and every time they receive the "grace of blood", they will fall into madness even more.

To understand it simply, it means exchanging willpower for physique.

Among the eight basic physical data of the character card, the physique is the most inconspicuous, but it is actually the most important.

The higher the value of the constitution, the stronger the ability to resist interference from the outside world, including physical attacks, diseases, and biochemical attacks such as drugs.

In addition, physique also represents the "blood bar" of each person.

For example, people who suffer from diseases all the year round will have significantly lower physical fitness values ​​than normal people.

There are also people who are shot casually in the body and die before the police and ambulance arrive.

Another person is shot, and he can still deal with the gangsters in the cave for hours, and cosplay Mario in the chimney.
This is the gap in the "blood bar" of physique.

When the physique is cleared, it doesn't mean that the person will die as soon as he touches it, but it means that he is already dead.

Obviously, the straightforward effect of [Curse of Blood] is to improve the investigator's stagnant physique and restore the "blood bar" to a normal state.

But correspondingly, every time he receives the "grace of blood", the connection between the dream and the ancient gods will be further deepened, resulting in a decrease in willpower.

Although Qin Zhibo has an iron will and his recovery speed is not slow, most of the lost will is recovered during sleep.

If the dream is troubled by the ancient gods, it means that the recovery speed of the will will be greatly reduced.

There is even the danger of being overturned.

In this way, it is equivalent to permanently deducting one's will.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo also realized the importance of this prop.

Use it well, this thing can save your life at a critical moment.

But the resurrection of the body may only be exchanged for spiritual "death".

Until now, Qin Zhibo has also seen it.

When Qin Zhibo first encountered character cards in Shuyu's house, he felt that strength and intelligence were the most important attributes.

Even looks or luck are more important than will.

But both strength and intelligence can be improved by honing skills.

But the will cannot be improved through any skill training, and one's own will can also be transformed into other attributes.

Magic Power Extractor Lord of the Rings = Will for Magic Power

Curse of Blood = Will for Constitution

If there are more ways to change the will in the future, then I will never dislike the will too much.

Of course, even though this [Curse of Blood Origin] is a curse, despite the danger of entering a mental hospital, it is still a necessary prop for Qin Zhibo.

After all, saving a life, or even several lives, at a critical moment sounds exciting.

It's just that the price is really expensive, and the price of 22000 is by far the most expensive item.

The last prop of this week is strictly a skill.

[Character skills - special skills (blasting)]

[Referring to your ability to make manufacturing settings or safely dismantle explosives]

【Upgrade this skill, you will be able to quickly manufacture and set up or dismantle explosives in a shorter time and with limited resources】

[Art is an explosion!Why did you dismantle it? ——a man surnamed Di who did not want to be named]

[Price: 3000 general skill proficiency]

Qin Zhibo took a closer look at the skill introduction. Strictly speaking, this is a two-in-one skill.

One is to make explosives and the other is to dismantle explosives.

Men's desire for explosions comes from the firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.

Qin Zhibo has watched a lot of spy movies, in which the protagonist of the spy finds some tools in the cleaning room and combines them at random, and an improvised bomb is rubbed out.

Then the agent took advantage of the chaos caused by the bomb to get rid of the golden cicada, a set of operations is still very handsome.

It's not bad to have this ability in the real world.

And as far as Qin Zhibo knew, Dr. A Li had blasting skills, and his level couldn't be too low.

At least a blasting genius.

The key is that this skill is also packaged with an explosive demolition, which is quite appropriate.

After reading all six skills, Qin Zhibo looked at the proficiency points required to purchase all of them, a total of 47977.

Compared with the 35000 last week, the total price of props has increased again, which also means that this week will be longer if the two largest mainline tasks cannot be completed.

"Long week"

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Time is too long, is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Although Qin Zhibo didn't know the answer to this question, he only knew one thing.

This world, and myself, there is always one who is sick.

The next day, ICU.

Mao Lilan, who was lying on the hospital bed, slowly opened his eyes, and the hearts of Conan and Mori Kogoro relaxed.

"You finally woke up! Xiao Lan!"

"The doctor said you were too tired, and asked you not to be busy with schoolwork and clubs in the future"

Mori Kogoro had only joy on his face, as if he had forgotten the sudden and critical situation yesterday.

Conan also looked at Mao Lilan with a smile, as if all the haze was swept away with the rain outside the window.

Qin Zhibo did not leave the hospital that night, but stood by the window of the ward, silently watching the warm scene.

"By the way, you were really weird last night, your eyelids kept moving."

"Are you dreaming of something?"

Mori Kogoro turned his back to pour water, and asked casually.

But Mao Lilan on the bed suddenly widened his eyes, and the fear and anxiety in his eyes were not concealed at all.

But immediately, Mao Lilan forced a smile on his face, "No, nothing."

"Maybe I dreamed about the history exam? But I have forgotten the details."

Although Kogoro Mori didn't see the abnormality in Mao Lilan's expression, Conan saw it clearly.

Conan frowned, thoughtful.

Xiaolan, seems to have something on her mind
Although Conan could see this, he couldn't ask him face to face.

After all, if it is a bad nightmare, it is definitely better not to remind the person involved.

And with Mao Lilan's strong personality, she will definitely not show her vulnerable side directly in front of others.

Forget it, it might just be a coincidence.

Qin Zhibo by the window was also quietly observing Mao Lilan.

Seeing Mao Lilan who was being supported to sit up with his head down, looking thoughtful, Qin Zhibo knew that things were not that simple.

The influence of the king in yellow is subtle. At the beginning, the person concerned would only treat the dreams containing the "king in yellow" as ordinary dreams.

But when the person involved realizes that he is trapped by the yellow nightmare, the situation will be difficult to reverse.

The question now is how to get the king in yellow to leave Mao Lilan.

Although Qin Zhibo knew that he might have some connection with the King in Yellow in some form.

But the relationship between himself and the king in yellow is more like beating a worker and a boss.

How can a beater influence the will of the boss?

What's more, the king in yellow is an indescribable god, and the benefits promised to mortals are not attractive in front of the king in yellow.

Apart from the King in Yellow's hobby of hunting Mi-Go, Qin Zhibo didn't know what the Nameless One was thinking.

How can Mao Lilan get rid of the nightmare?
Regarding this problem, Qin Zhibo thought about it all night, and only came up with the only countermeasure so far.

Since the king in yellow belongs to the magic side, only magic can defeat magic.

Maybe Hongzi Koizumi will do some things like exorcising evil spirits.

Although this kind of thing seems to be dedicated to witches, Hongko Koizumi said that witches are just another name for witches, and the essence is the same.

In addition to asking Koizumi Hongzi for advice, Qin Zhibo also thought that in "The Secret of the Worm", seeing the old seal can have a slight restraint effect on some mysterious existences, such as: Baron Samedi.

Coincidentally, there is still an old seal hanging on the door of the office. It is not very useful to hang it yourself, so you might as well give it a try.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo also got up to say goodbye.

"Since Xiaolan is awake, I'll go back first."

"When everyone returns to Tokyo, don't forget to tell me."

"I have a gift for Xiaolan"
