New concept of the mysterious way to ascend to immortality

Chapter 11 Professional spy elf, Balala’s spiritual mentor.

A car that was obviously old and simple in style, with straight edges and angles that gave off a cold and hard feeling, a strong mechanical feel but lacking in technological elements, was spewing out billowing black smoke and stopped not far in front of Yuan Zhu.

With two bangs, the metal car door was violently opened from the inside, and two uniformed Oriental men walked out from the driver's and the passenger's seats respectively.

The older man, perhaps in his forties or fifties, was overweight, with a pot belly that made his oversized, slim-fitting uniform look like maternity wear. His expression was calm, but his eyes held a hint of kindness, like a kindly old man, radiating a friendly aura.

He had a beard around his mouth and a goatee on his chin, giving him a rather classic look. However, the huge square camera hanging from his chest made the combination look out of place.

The young man following behind him, in his early 20s, had a cold face and ordinary appearance, a pale face and no beard, but he had long hair on his head, tied in a bun with a hairpin, like an ancient man. Combined with his well-fitting uniform embroidered with patterns, he managed to give off the aura of an ascetic handsome man.

The young man was holding a box in his hand and wearing a pair of riding boots. He stood behind the middle-aged fat man, staring at Yuan Zhu coldly, squinting his eyes and looking at him carefully, as if he was examining a criminal.

As soon as the two staff members appeared on the scene, they brought a small professional shock, which made Yuan Zhu feel inexplicably guilty.

This was probably due to his previous life on Earth, where he had lived a law-abiding life since childhood. Whenever he passed the police station, he wouldn't even glance at them, fearing the officers would misinterpret his gaze as a provocation. He had never called 110 once in his life, but within half a day of traveling through time, he dialed the local 7711 number and surrendered himself at lightning speed.

Now facing a real law enforcement officer from another world, and a professional who was investigating serious cases, coupled with the young man's sharp gaze, as well as the sword and pistol at his waist, he felt uneasy.

Why does this guy look a bit like a Jinyiwei?
The industrial level of Duling Planet has surpassed that of Earth's First Industrial Revolution. However, the "New Federation" that immigrated to the New World did not suffer a major cultural blow, nor did they suffer from wars caused by Western colonization.

Therefore, Running City retains the classical characteristics of Eastern civilization in everything from its architectural style to its people's lifestyle and clothing. At the same time, it also actively absorbs the characteristics of other countries, magical aliens, and steam universe humans, achieving an inclusive and tolerant state.

For example, the two people in front of us are wearing modern uniforms that are convenient for daily movements, but they are embroidered with patterns similar to the ancient flying fish clothes, reflecting their identity and occupation.

The middle-aged fat man had the typical short hair, but influenced by Xiguo's traditional culture, he had grown a beard to show his maturity and stability. Another young man had long hair tied in a bun, a retro style that greatly enhanced his appearance and made Yuan Zhu want to try it too.

Seeing Yuan Zhu nervously looking up at him, the middle-aged man observed her for a moment before asking. His tone wasn't oppressive, but rather calm: "Did you report the case?"

"Yes, I discovered it... Uh, no, I participated in it... Wait, that's not right either. Let me organize my words."

Although he had simulated it in his mind beforehand, when he suddenly spoke, he found that he was not familiar with the Duling language, and his words felt tongue-twisting. It was a kind of situation where his brain said he understood, his tongue said he understood, but the words just couldn't come together.

He could say every word and understood the meaning of every sentence, but he just couldn't express it.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, signaling Yuan Zhu to calm down. "It's normal, don't panic. Take your time. We have time. Do you mind if I run a test on you first? My last name is Wang, you can call me Old Wang or Uncle Wang. This guy's last name is Han, and he has a cold personality, but it's not directed at you."

Yuan Zhu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Uh, okay, please do as you please."

This start was much better than he expected.

...

Now, the situation on the scene is like this:

Yuan Zhu was alone, wearing ill-fitting clothes and looking a little nervous, clearly an inexperienced young man from a good family. Meanwhile, the enemy was not only outnumbered but also armed with swords and spears, in top form. They also had a rich record of kills and experience in dealing with unexpected situations.

Yuan Zhu's honest and good character from Earth, as well as his gentle temperament brought by nine years of compulsory education, made the middle-aged man sigh that this young man was so honest that he didn't seem like a native of Running.

Was he possessed? Or had he lost all his memories, even his personality?
As he was thinking, he thought of the law enforcement manual that was revised and updated every few years, which recorded the manifestations caused by different situations such as "evil cultivators taking over people's bodies, souls from other worlds traveling through time and possession, evil spirits possessing people, mental shock, malicious brainwashing, personality implantation/modification, false rebirth..."

Of course, Yuan Zhu didn't know that after just one encounter, his true situation was guessed by the other party without any connection and without any prior knowledge.

However, the other party didn't delve into it, simply giving a self-deprecating laugh and clearing his mind of these unfounded thoughts. Even if the other party truly had some mental issues, he was more than happy to see him being so docile and cooperative. It was much safer than those psychopaths who, under stimulation, would become extremely aggressive and could attack at any moment.

At the same time, the young man surnamed Han bent down to put down the suitcase, then opened it on the spot, took out some parts that he couldn't understand, and quickly assembled them into the shape of a detection gun, with a dial above the handle.

Then, the young man connected the detection device to a battery-like energy source, then stood up and fiddled with Yuan Zhu, pressing several buttons continuously, making a crackling sound, and then frowned slightly, obviously with a bit of dissatisfaction in his doubts.

The other party ignored Yuan Zhu's feelings, approached again, walked around him, and continued to press the button to detect, but still failed to get a satisfactory answer.

At this moment, the elf's voice also sounded faintly in his mind: "Don't panic, be confident. You are not a murderer, nor are you a mortal. Where is your previous domineering aura as the king of beasts? Where is your majesty, my king? Where is your confidence?"

"Stop talking, I feel so ashamed." Yuan Zhu responded at the speed of light in his mind, trying to make the elf shut up and erase the dark history.

The elf was displeased: "Tsk, what's there to be ashamed of? You should be like this. The experiences you've had on Earth and the personality you've developed are not suitable for Du Ling or Run Ning. You have to make changes, you have to stand up! Other travelers waste half their lives on Earth, and once they travel through another world, they become dragons. From then on, they kill decisively, have high IQs, are possessed by geniuses, and dominate the world for eternity." "I'm just an ordinary Earthling!"

The elf said, "Don't be nervous, don't panic. Don't worry, I'm here, and you'll be alright. I'm a professional spy who's infiltrated the mini-program. With my cooperation and guidance, you'll definitely make it through the interrogation. Trust me, it's a sure thing!"

Yuan Zhu was shocked: "You still have this ability?"

"Of course! The Great Wilderness Immortal Scripture itself is a specialized spy detection and investigation program for infiltration. These are essential skills for me, and it contains a rich library of counter-interrogation data."

"Oh, the [Immortal Scripture] is really not a clean thing! So what should I do now? This Han guy doesn't seem like a good person. I can feel that he is deliberately targeting me. Come on, let me see your strength and test your skills."

The elf replied confidently, "The most important thing is not to panic and show guilt. This will create a sense of weakness, put the conversation on the defensive, and let the other person control the pace. Secondly... I'm just like you right now, lacking any valid information to draw on, so I can't give you the answer you want right now. But don't worry, I'll be online at all times, always with you, offering advice, pointing out mistakes, and providing the best strategy."

Yuan Zhu, who almost believed her lies, was about to explode with anger: "You are a professional sister! I don't believe you!"

Undeterred, and without a trace of guilt, the elf continued confidently, "In addition to being a professional infiltration instructor and anti-interrogation expert, I'm also an excellent psychological counselor. With me here, I can tailor your mental state and make timely adjustments."

"Do you think I was such a loser just now that I let my guard down? Yes, it's true! But it was also intentional. I did this to provoke you, to lead you into anger and rage, to break through the docility and obedience bred in you Celestial Empire people from childhood, to break through your guilty conscience and nervousness, and to face your opponent head-on! Just tell me, are you angry now?"

Yuan Zhu: "Well, I'm not really nervous anymore, but I was pissed off at you. What's the point of this?"

"Of course it works. This is the ultimate spiritual SPA. Let me put it this way, do you still feel the fear and guilt of facing interrogation by law enforcement officers after accidentally killing over thirty people?"

"Of course there is. I'm still a little panicked now. Although you are the real murderer, I am also an accomplice." Although he said so, after Yuan Zhu and the elf had a good chat in the spiritual world, they did slowly let go of their worries and were not so nervous anymore.

This little thing is still quite something.

The elf decisively took the blame, not contesting the murderer's facts. He continued, "Hey, isn't it different? If you had traveled to this world and not been contaminated, resulting in your 'game elf' not gaining self-awareness, but instead becoming a mechanical, rigid little program, then right now, you'd be facing interrogation alone. Naturally, your lack of experience would have filled you with panic and worry, fearing you wouldn't make it, that someone would see through you, and then let their vast experience penetrate your defenses, trapping you in a vicious cycle. This is perfectly normal, considering you rarely go to the police station."

"But now that you have me, things are completely different. Even though I'm powerless to interfere with the outside world right now, I can still indirectly influence your behavior by adjusting your mindset and boosting your confidence. With me here, I can shower you with sweet nothings, encourage you, and let you lose yourself in endless praise, gaining strong confidence to combat external pressure. In a way, I'm your mental stress reliever!"

Yuan Zhu had no choice but to believe her lies again: "Come on, elf, give me a whole life! Make me confident."

"Just watch me. I only have one question for you: which is more terrifying, over 40 demons corrupted by the evil gods, or two weaklings armed with pistols? Although you've been interrogated and examined with detectors, your true nature is a newly ascended shadowy evil spirit, a hidden great demon with the potential to become an evil god. You are a modern-day Tiger Demon who inherited the [Great Wilderness Immortal Scripture Boss Template]!"

"So, what do you have to be afraid of?! The worst that can happen is that your identity will be exposed, and you can just fight your way out. Your strength would be far inferior to that of the people back home on Earth. And look at the backward technology and production level of this world. There aren't even any cameras. Are you still afraid that you can't escape? There's a misty forest nearby. What are you afraid of? You can just hide and disappear in the mist, and you can roar proudly in the mountains from now on. So, hold your head high!"

Elf: "Okay, I've finished what I said. Are you still panicking now?"

"Don't panic anymore, don't panic anymore. My self-confidence is back. I am also constrained by the rules and regulations of the Chinese people. This is a manifestation of high quality. The fellows in our place are all like this." Yuan Zhu hurriedly made up for it.

The elf said without a trace of guilt: "That's right, I'm a professional spy elf and a spiritual mentor. I can inject you with Balala's rainbow energy farts, making you burst out with incredible and powerful mental strength. This is a mind-boosting, self-confidence-boosting, scientific version of the elixir of happiness."

Yuan Zhu praised: "You know so much."

The elf's virtual girl image bowed. "You're welcome. I'm excellent, but these are all relevant terms and knowledge retrieved from your memory bank. You're actually quite knowledgeable as well."

"You speak so nicely, please speak more in the future."

The girl nodded seriously. "See, this is the power of flattery! Humans need spiritual comfort to build self-confidence. Through positive feedback, a strong mental will is gradually shaped. And I excel at providing emotional value and performing mental spa massages, letting you lose yourself in the flattery and build invincible confidence and willpower!"

"In all those fantasy novels you've read, don't the protagonists have to slaughter every weakling along the way to build up an aura of invincibility, ascend the long steps to godhood, and ultimately slay every genius, establishing the foundation of invincibility with the mindset of a great emperor? To put it bluntly, this is the power of the mind, self-hypnosis. With me, you don't even need to slaughter every weakling to gather the confidence needed for this mindset."

Yuan Zhu nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, you know so much. You're worthy of being the intelligent mini-program that comes with the [Immortal Scripture]. I trust you! You must praise me more in the future. I don't want to hesitate or hesitate because of inferiority and miss out on success."

The elf intensified his temptation, saying, "Yes, that's the mentality. You should be extremely confident and decisive! Actually, I'm only averagely intelligent, having just been born and lacking experience. My excellence is based on your mature thinking and profound wisdom, so let's encourage each other and make progress together."

Yuan Zhu was overjoyed: "Ah, right, right! That's it. Keep talking. I'm in a very positive mood right now. I'm incredibly confident and I dare to face any challenge. Right now, I'm eager to battle wits and courage with these two aborigines."

My mentality is inexplicably ignited!
