Soul Trigger

Chapter 78 One Week (4500)

A week later, in the Aurora City sewer.

This place has been transformed into a small base, like a small bar located in a sewer.

The sound of flowing water came from all directions, and not only was there no stench, but it also had a hint of sweet and fishy fragrance.

The strong man pounded his fist on the table and stared at the leader in front of him:
"What have you been doing these days?!"

His hair stood up like steel needles, pointing high behind him, and he angrily questioned the feminine man in front of him.

The leader twisted his shoulders, glanced at the people who were looking at him, and frowned:
"...After the Red Whip Society was destroyed, many secret societies and small organizations and forces wanted to divide up their assets, and many idiots showed up..."

"I have been looking for new targets these days. After taking over the 'factory', Hongying told me that they were becoming increasingly impatient..."

"How dare you mention Rainbow Warbler!"

He rushed forward angrily and grabbed the leader by the collar:
"Hongying disappeared after talking to you on the phone that day. What on earth did you ask her to do?!"

The feminine man frowned:
"I just asked her to find that dog to deliver a delivery order. What happened?"

"In the end, I was the one who sent her off." The skinny woman who was mixing drinks said with sharp teeth, "Hongying didn't come back three days ago. I don't know where she went. An Zhongxun was so worried..."

"Hongying finally told me that she was going to some college to look for that dog..."

The leader gently slapped An Zhongxun's hand away and signaled him to calm down.

However, as he was speaking, he suddenly stopped.

"What school? I'm going to find her...what's that expression on your face?" An Zhongxun said.

The feminine man suddenly put on a horrified expression and sat down on the chair next to him.

"College...College...Why didn't I think of that at the time..."

He murmured, looking at An Zhongxun beside him:
"Call the long-haired guy and ask him if Hongying said where she was going in the end."

"I've called before. Except for you and Hongying, the 'factory' won't answer any of our calls!"

The feminine leader took out his phone and called. After a conversation, he put down the phone:
"Aries College... it's Aries College..."

An Zhongxun turned around and tried to leave, but was stopped by the leader:
"What do you want to do?!"

"What else can I do? Of course I'll go find my girl!"

"Calm the fuck down!"

"That's not your woman, of course you can calm down!"

"Stop arguing..."

The members finally separated the two. The feminine leader glanced at the ring on An Zhongxun's hand, his expression still grim:
"That's Aries College... Aries College, you can't go there..."

"Why can't I go? Explain it to me clearly!"

An Zhongxun also realized the feminine man's expression and managed to calm down and speak in a calm voice.

"...I originally wanted you to lie dormant for a while, and then let Hongying and I go out to continue the operation."

The feminine leader looked at An Zhongxun who looked anxious and gave him an ugly smile:

"It seems that people over there are getting impatient now."

"A masterpiece... Only a masterpiece of the same level can help. At this stage, we must give up Hongying..."

"What the fuck did you say?!"

Seeing An Zhongxun suddenly getting up, the feminine man's face instantly turned cold:
"Hold him down."

"Hey! What the hell are you doing! F--"

The feminine man cut his wrist, and blood gushed out into the sky, instantly solidifying like gel and hitting An Zhongxun's head hard.

But this didn't knock him out. He shook his head and got up from the ground. His clothes bulged as if something was trying to get out.
“Mukai! Why did you gather us together in the first place? Why are we hiding from you now? Don’t you forget…”

Blood covered his head like gel, and a group of people rushed forward and pinned An Zhongxun down.

After a flash of colorful spiritual energy, the man as strong as an ox fainted completely.

"Keep an eye on him and don't let him run around. This is for all of us."

The feminine man stood up and walked outside:

"I have to go find another bone removal. This is probably a warning. Before we get a 'master-level' piece, there will be no way out for anyone..."

"Make sure you keep an eye on An Zhongxun and don't let him go to his death."

"There is something incredible below Aries College..."

……

Ji Li sneezed, and a slender, white hand handed over a piece of white toilet paper:

"Have a cold?"

"Thank you, I'm fine."

"Then you wipe the sweat off?"

"also."

Ji Li took the paper that Che Li handed over. Some men and women were applauding him vigorously.

First place in the short-distance race in physical education class.

This is not something to be proud of, but perhaps it is because the previous incident of killing a mad dog with one blow has made him gain a lot of popularity.

Some little fans were clapping crazily on the side, led by the girl named Zou Ke.

At the same time, there is also a student union member and a guy with glasses from the track and field team who looks resentful, as well as a little boy who is also jealous of Ji Li for stealing the girls' attention.

These are all sheep, and the wool comes from the sheep.

[The human spirit is excited by your existence]

[Your soul core is throbbing, and your connection with this world is deepening.]

【Cognitive Index +0.4】

[The human spirit is jealous of your existence]

[Your soul core is throbbing, and your connection with this world is deepening.]

【Cognitive Index +0.6】

So, hatred is always easier than love.

Ji Li estimated that if it were his previous self, his cognitive index would probably be skyrocketing now.

After all, people hate you wherever you go.

"...Aren't you going to run for president soon? It seems like your competitor has skipped all physical education classes." Ji Li glanced at Che Li.

The girl smiled slightly: "I have my own plans. Speaking of which... this."

The girl pulled out two tickets from her pocket. They said something about a Shilla concert tour:

"Go together this weekend? I haven't thanked you properly for what you did last time."

"Not at this time."

"What's going on over there?"

"I'm glad you know." Ji Li took a sip of water.

Che Li looked at Zou Ke who was running towards her waving his hand, and her eyes were inevitably a little complicated.

In the case of Kang In-sung, the final result announced by the school was that the veterinarian resigned, and Kang In-sung and the poor victim transferred to other schools.

Of course, some people saw the alienated Kang In-sung, even if it was not the whole picture.

But no matter whether the school’s announcement was about a gas explosion or a mad dog biting someone, money would always make those who spoke shut up.

At this moment, Zou Ke had already rushed up:

"Ji Li! Do you want to go to the concert together this weekend?"

You also watch concerts, right?

Che Li's mouth twitched a little, but hers was actually a concert, while Zou Ke's was a concert.

Ji Li naturally shook his head:

"I have to work part-time recently. Thank you for your kindness."

Then Zou Ke said that he could help him find a good part-time job.

Gradually some little girls gathered around and chattered non-stop.

Where there are women, there are men, so the boys also gathered around. After school, Ji Li received a call from Jin Misha:
"Hey Old Ji! Do you want to go watch wrestling together this weekend?"

"You're coming too, right?"

"Huh? Are there girls in your school who also like to watch wrestling?!"

"...Can that wrestler withstand a punch from you?"

Ji Li was speechless.

One of the characteristics of Bunny Girl:

Extraordinary strength + physical fitness far beyond that of ordinary people.

If it were the predecessor "Ji Li", Rabbit could kill ten of him with one punch.

Don't forget that this guy was able to carry Ji Li and the monsters from the other world to run a marathon.

"Ahem... not really. I just work out a lot and recently I want to learn about wrestling..."

"How's the matter I asked you to do going?"

"Hey, it makes me angry when I talk about this. My former colleagues are such bad people. They still remember that I stole her coffee..."

After Ji Li caught the woman, he locked onto information related to the "Skinner" on Flash Street based on his own judgment.

While he was looking for clues himself, he also asked Jin Misa and Da Lei's head maid to help search for clues.

The main purpose is to figure out what kind of organization is behind that woman, and the actual value of my spiritual circuit.

The head maid said she would keep an eye on it, but has not responded yet. Jin Misa is not welcome.

As mentioned before, Rabbit used to work as a slave in the Special Management Bureau.

The Special Management Bureau must know more about criminal organizations like the Skinners.

Unfortunately, perhaps because Jin Misa and the Special Management Bureau were born incompatible, and because of some unpleasant things that happened when she left the job, they didn't like her very much.

"I originally wanted to contact Yan Xiyu directly, but I didn't expect that she was promoted to team leader. As an outsider, I have no way to contact her directly."

"The most you can do is call their contact person. It was her contact person who contacted me last time when I issued the bounty. His tone was full of reluctance."

"Guess what she said to me this time? 'The bounty has been given to you, so don't push your luck.' Damn, is that something a human being can say?"

"It feels like we're being given alms by helping them catch that idiot from the Black Sun Mansion!"

Ji Li has learned from Jin Misha that Yan Xiyu is the red-eyed, high-ponytailed agent that night.

"Then keep an eye on the intelligence agents in Flash Street, and I'll look for them myself."

"Okay. By the way, where is the woman you caught held?" Rabbit asked curiously.

"secret."

"Hey... you didn't do anything unspeakable to that female bandit..."

"I broke three of her teeth, plucked out ten of her nails, cut off a finger, and even took off her wedding ring. Is this considered unspeakable?"

"You devil!!!!"

The rabbit screamed.

Ji Li hadn't said anything worse yet, and he hadn't even used anything worse yet.

Murphy's megastructure's virtual reality interrogation room has a lot of tricks up its sleeve.

For example, the woman being interrogated was forced to use a man's body, and then her eyes were forced to watch her own cow being cut into six pieces by a razor blade.

I won’t say more.

Rabbit seemed to want to talk more, but at this moment, Ji Li suddenly felt the trigger of his soul touch -

The mouse has found something again.

After saying goodbye and hanging up the phone, Ji Li went straight to his own Lingbo Prison.

During this week, nothing special happened except that the purple-haired woman suddenly appeared and came to him to ask for food.

Since Da Lei hasn't come back yet, Ji Li simply studies the things in the reflection world while taking advantage of the opportunities at Aries College.

Although he has not gained as much cognitive index as in the death track, Ji Li has basically seized every opportunity to "show himself".

After a week, the cognitive index accumulated little by little and gradually returned to 20 points.

And those mice, relying on their own characteristics, traveled through the wormholes and began to explore the secrets under this spiritual prison cluster.

……

The so-called skinner does not refer to a specific person, but more like a profession, or a specific identity.

To be more specific, people who engage in the "human skin" black industry are called skinners.

To be precise, it is "human skin" with spiritual circuits.

By grafting this human skin onto other people, after a period of training, the grafted person will be able to use the abilities of the spiritual circuit freely.

As for why such a black industry exists, it is because it is much faster to skin other people than to prepare the materials yourself and find a burner or learn it yourself.

Moreover, the prices of transplantation and purchase are relatively cheap, so it is natural for such a black industry to emerge.

According to the information Ji Li learned on Flash Street, "human skin" is very popular in the black market.

Because for many third-rate organizations and criminal secret societies, besides worshipping the Lord and becoming a contracted demon, human skin is the best way to improve their strength.

But it does not mean that the more spiritual circuits there are, the better.

This is because the spiritual essence circuit will allow the Soul Well to release additional spiritual essence for nourishment. If there is no spiritual essence flow in the circuit for a long time, it will soon become an ordinary tattoo.

Of course, there are also some special people who, because their spiritual core abilities are not strong enough, choose the extreme path of constantly "tattooing" themselves.

This kind of people are called "tattoo guys" in the human world, and the more formal name is "magic addicts", which can be regarded as relying on external forces to open up a new track.

These are the information he found while surfing the "Crimson Front" during this period.

And because of the previous Lingbo incident on the Death Track, Ji Li also read more interesting urban legends.

The urban legends on Flash Street can be said to be legends among urban legends, and there is a certain degree of truth in them.

What interested him most was a "Mist Shadow Train" that was so fast that it was said to be able to travel through time and space, hidden in the reflection world of Aurora City.

These little stories are one of the few pastimes in Ji Li's daily life, besides exercising.

Arriving in the Lingbo Prison, Ji Li glanced at an independent compartment next to him which had only a few small windows.

This is the cell that was built by absorbing the purple-haired girl's spiritual essence over the past week.

He ignored the other party and put on a set of claw-shaped equipment.

The Ectoplasm Circuit Engraving Tool purchased on Flash Street.

There are engraving tools of different shapes on each finger of the claw, which looks very professional.

This is a second-hand set, which I got through the connections of Bunny Girl's contact and spent three hundred thousand.

As he put the ashes and various materials that had been ground into powder into the container on his elbow, he activated the spiritual essence and began to record the spiritual essence circuit in the spiritual prison.

At this moment, the entire Spiritual Prison is already engraved with dense spiritual circuits.

These are the spiritual circuits given by Li Zhanxiang. They are connected and combined with each other according to some rules, and at this moment, Ji Li is perfecting the final part.

An hour later, he wiped the sweat off his head and scanned the dense lines covering the entire room. The analysis data of the Ascension Protocol was rapidly flushing in his retina:

"Let's try and see if it works."

As he placed his hand on the center of the "array center", his unique gray-white spiritual essence was injected into the spiritual essence circuit under his feet, and the whole room was brightly lit.

A wormhole opened in the wall at the end of his vision, and the rats crawled out.

Ji Li let out a long breath, with a smile on his face:
"It's done."

With the help of the Ascension Protocol and various miscellaneous information, he created a "large spiritual circuit" through Li Zhanxiang's spiritual circuit.

In fact, it is a series of experimental data given after summarizing the data of his practice during this period through the Ascension Protocol.

By using the methods contained in these data, the spiritual circuit can be expanded, so as to achieve the goal of allowing Ji Li's body to pass through the "wormhole".

Since rabbits have their own abilities and characteristics that allow them to travel through wormholes, this also proves that humans can travel through wormholes.

Ji Li had failed three times. This was the fourth time, and he finally succeeded.

At this time, a mouse brought something over. As the soul trigger trembled, Ji Li's eyes narrowed:

"Otherworld pollutants?!"
