Picked up the devil, but very traditional

Gu En threw out the Demon Sealing Bottle, called out Meilu, and practiced his throwing technique at the same time.

Meilu didn't pay attention to what Gu En said just now. When she came out and saw that it was here, she lay down on the bed, stretched and asked:

"Are you planning to live here from now on?"

"Yeah." Gu En nodded.

"Then I want this bed."

"No problem!" Gu En agreed immediately: "I'll modify the small room on the first floor so you can sleep in it."

Although it is a small room, it is better than Gu En’s previous bedroom.

Meilu showed a satisfied smile on her face: "Tell me, do you have something to ask me?"

Gu En first presented the small cake he had prepared, and then said, "Teacher Meilu, I am about to touch that book, can you help me keep an eye on it?"

"If it does anything to retaliate, just destroy it."

Meilu took the small cake and couldn't wait to taste it. She said casually, "Okay! You can use it. I'll help you watch it."

With Meilu's assurance, Gu En finally felt relieved.

Of course, he waited until Meilu finished eating the cake before taking out the book "One Thousand and One Whys" from the magic-sealing bottle.

During class, Gu En looked up the information about this book. It was indeed a children's book and should not appear in the school library. He didn't know who stuffed it in there and didn't take it away, and it inexplicably became like this.

The cover of the book is in a very cartoon style, with a big question mark in the middle and two children, a boy and a girl, standing on both sides. One of them is supporting his chin with a puzzled look on his face, and the other is poking his cheek with his finger, as if thinking.

In the upper middle part are eight large Q-version characters: "One Thousand and One Whys".

The original colors were rich and colorful, but now they are dry and yellow, and the pages are wrinkled. I don't know how long they have been there.

Gu En took a deep breath: "Teacher Meilu, I'm coming."

"Well, hurry up, I still have to read comics."

Gu En exhaled, slowly placed his hand on the book, and gently opened the first page. Inside... it was blank.

Hmm? A book without words?

It won’t work without words. I can’t understand it.

Gu En flipped through a few more pages, but they were all blank again, with nothing on the cover and the back.

He didn't quite understand: "Teacher Meilu, how do I use this thing?"

Meilu's eyes became strange, she looked him up and down and asked, "Are you... okay?"

"Uh, should I be okay?"

"You don't feel dizzy, nauseous, or weak all over?"

Gu En tilted his head, felt himself, and answered, "No."

"No faster heartbeat or swelling of blood vessels?"

"nor."

"That's really weird~"

Meilu suddenly moved closer and observed Gu En from top to bottom, especially his eyes, which she stared at for a long time.

Gu En was so frightened by her stare that he immediately asked, "Teacher Meilu, what happened?"

"A normal person who comes into direct contact with evil energy would definitely have some abnormal reactions. How come nothing happened to you?"

The evil energy contained in the book is not weak. Not to mention an ordinary person like Gu En, even some magicians may go crazy if they encounter it.

"Could it be because I have the magical power of the Demon Sealing Bottle?" Gu En asked.

"Hmm... maybe that's a possibility."

"Then forget about that for now and teach me how to use this thing."

Meilu spread her hands: "I can't teach you. Each of these things has different abilities. You can only study it yourself."

“How do I study?”

"Try it slowly. You don't feel anything unusual anyway, so try it however you want."

After saying that, Meilu went to look for comics on the shelf next to her. Gu En took the book and looked at it up and down, left and right, but had no clue.

"How about... writing something and trying?"

Chapter 30: Fusion Infection

"Team Lee."

In the office of the Administration, Li Ming was reading a report. Xiao Zhang knocked on the door and walked in, handing over the tablet and saying:

"The Cyber ​​Department discovered a video leaked from Lotus University that was suspected to be a new infectious agent."

Li Ming looked up, pointed at the chair in front of him and said with a smile: "Let the E-level personnel collect the information first. Your promotion report has been approved."

"Really!"

Xiao Zhang's eyes lit up, and he immediately sat down and asked, "So I am a C-level staff member now?"

"Yeah." Li Ming also smiled with relief: "The procedures have been approved, the combat uniforms will be delivered tomorrow, and you can go to the logistics department to pick up your share of bullets later."

The Administration has special bullets to deal with strange creatures, but there are not many of them and the effect is generally average. They cannot kill them directly and can only have a deterrent effect.

Xiao Zhang was not interested in this and asked nervously, "Has the evil spirit equipment I applied for been approved?"

"This..." Li Ming put away his smile and his expression became serious: "Xiao Zhang, are you sure you are ready?"

"Of course!"

Xiao Zhang's eyes were determined. After joining the Administration, he never thought of stopping at Level C. His goal had always been the front-line battlefield.

But he was not born an awakener, so there was only one way for him to become stronger and join the battle.

Have your own evil spirit equipment.

Only by stepping into the darkness can you gain the capital to fight against it!

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Li Ming stopped trying to dissuade him. He stood up and sighed, "Then come with me."

"it is good!"

The two of them walked towards the depths of the administration together. The inspection along the way was very strict. Even if everyone knew each other, the possibility of disguise could not be ruled out.

We arrived at the laboratory, where several researchers in white coats were ready. They took a look and said:

"Stand up when you're ready."

Xiao Zhang took a deep breath and walked into the isolation room without hesitation. On the way, he stripped himself down to his underwear to make it easier for researchers to collect data.

Soon, his body was covered with various things, and his physical data and mental state were synchronized on the big screen.

The door next to it opened, and a staff member wearing a space suit-like outfit pushed a cart into the isolation room, put down a box, and then walked out.

Person in charge: "All departments should prepare, one contact at a time."

The isolation room was completely soundproof, and text appeared on the LED screen inside, asking Xiao Zhang to open the box.

Xiao Zhang slowly stretched out his hand and pressed the switch, and the box popped open by itself. Inside was the evil spirit equipment he had applied for before.

One of the eyes is moving, and its name is Huanyue.

The two sides looked at each other and the researchers outside began to get busy.

"Elevated body temperature, elevated blood pressure, abnormal heartbeat."

"Pupil constriction, shortness of breath, unusual crackling of bones, and excessive sweating."

"The mental data has not exceeded the critical value, and the brain data is normal."

Each researcher's tone was calm, or rather, they had to be calm.

Person in charge: "Each department should report data at any time and make a second contact after five minutes."

Li Ming, who was standing by, was so nervous that he dared not breathe and could only cheer him on in his heart.

Li Ming is a natural awakener who can smell unusual auras, but his combat ability is not very strong.

Because he had never applied for evil spirit equipment, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on. This thing was not something that normal humans could use.

He has a happy family and a wonderful life with a wife and children. His mental state is not likely to resist the invasion of evil spirits. Even if he wants to apply, it is estimated that he will be rejected.

Only Xiao Zhang... can bear it.

During the daily resistance training, everyone else was wailing, but he was silent.

Person in charge: "All departments, get ready! Second contact."

Xiao Zhang in the isolation room's breathing has returned to normal. After seeing the text prompt, he reached out and picked up the eye.

Soft and sticky.

In fact, as long as you can get through the first stage, you can basically get through the second stage. With an adaptation process, your body will not have too many problems. The key point still lies in the mental value.

"The mental data is gradually increasing. There are only fifty points left before it breaks through the critical value."

"The Phantom Moon Eye is invading the surface of the skin, 30%...40%...100%."

"All the bones in my right hand are shattered, muscle decomposition is accelerating, and the phantom moon cells are spreading."

The person in charge gave the order: "Attention, once the spread reaches the elbow joint, stop contact immediately."

"understand!"

A few minutes passed, but for Xiao Zhang in the isolation room, it felt like several days.

He could no longer feel the existence of his palm. The pain was secondary. The main feeling was the itching from his wrist and the disgusting feeling that something small was constantly crawling in his cerebral cortex, which made him feel overwhelmed.

Now, even screaming loudly was a luxury for him. He could only grit his teeth and stay rational.

I don't know how long I persisted, but I suddenly felt my right hand, as if my bones were sewn together with thread. The moving sensation in my brain gradually stopped, and my consciousness regained the upper hand.

Xiao Zhang blinked, not knowing whether he had succeeded or not, but... it felt great!

Power surged into his heart and he was extremely excited. At this moment, he seemed to be the master of the world.

"The pupils are heterochromatic, and the rest of the body data is normal, with no obvious external mutation characteristics."
