Who says a sickly daughter can’t break through the weirdness?

This time she was able to successfully complete the experiment thanks to her habit of overestimating her enemies and the fact that she had invested heavily in upgrading her brass pocket watch.

This was a risky trip, and if the props were even slightly inferior, she might have died.

Shen Qiyin took the desire stone and handed it to Tang Miao.

However, just as she was about to hand it to the other person, a sharp buzzing sound suddenly exploded in her mind!

Her face showed pain, she covered her head and almost cried out in pain.

At the same time, the buzzing sound in Shen Qiyin's mind strangely became slightly clearer -

"Iaaaaa! Iaaaaa! Cccc▇▇▇hu▇▇▇uuu..."

"Iaaaaa! Iaaaaa! Ccc▇▇▇ttt▇▇▇▇huuu..."

"Eeexxul, Fh▇▇▇nnn, veni, protege!!"

The voice seemed to be squeezed out from the deepest cracks in the universe, carrying with it endless antiquity and madness. Every syllable was like a sharp ice pick, piercing straight into the depths of her brain!

The world around me seemed to begin to distort, and the shadows of the furniture seemed to come alive, twisting and turning violently.

She wanted to shout, but found that her throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, and she could only make weak whimpers.

Fortunately, the pain only lasted for less than two seconds.

When the pain subsided, Shen Qinyin struggled to climb out of the cold sea like a drowning sailor and regained consciousness.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze?"

Shen Qinyin's extremely painful expression just now was just her own illusion.

In Tang Miao's eyes, she was just stunned for two seconds when she handed over the fragments.

"..."

Shen Qiyin hesitated for a moment, but finally handed the fragment to Tang Miao and gave her a worried look: "Feel it yourself, but be careful."

"Be careful? What do you mean..."

Before he could even utter the word "me", Tang Miao's expression froze.

Shen Qiyin knew that she must have fallen into the same situation as she had just been in.

However, compared to her, Tang Miao was "dazed" for a second or two longer.

Of course, to the outside world, only one or two seconds have passed, but for the person who is trapped in the "illusion", several hours may have passed.

After coming back to her senses, Tang Miao's delicate little face turned pale.

She trembled and stammered to Shen Qiyin, "Qiyin! I, I, I, I just heard some strange, weird noises!"

"Is there anything else?" Shen Qiyin pressed. "For example, when you hold this fragment in your hand, do you feel like you've suddenly gained enlightenment?"

"Uh, I, I'm not sure, but my mind seems to be clearer and more energetic than before... Does that count?"

After hearing these words, Shen Qinyin finally felt relieved.

good very good.

The experiment was successful.

Although the fragments of the Core of Fear dropped by the Lurker this time were somewhat special, Tang Miao could already sense the "forbidden knowledge" contained in them through the fragments.

This means that she also has the possibility of "awakening qualifications".

It seems that my guess is correct. People who are recognized by the notebook and have established soul resonance with me, even if they do not have the qualifications, will gradually awaken their qualifications as the soul resonance, that is, the bond, improves.

Judging from Tang Miao's situation, if she improves her bond one or two more times, she will be able to fully awaken, become a "qualified person", and comprehend the "forbidden knowledge".

Haha, I never thought that I would have the role of "manufacturing qualification".

However, this ability is probably only applicable to a very small number of people?

After all, according to the contents of the notebook, there are only about twenty Major Arcana in total.

Wait, am I going to have to build bonds with over 20 people in the future? Is this really a game?

Now, in addition to Tang Miao’s “Popeess”, there is also an unactivated “Chariot” Xiaoxiang.

It’s easy to understand how to establish a bond with humans, but how do you establish a bond with robots?

Feed her more batteries?

Forget it, these problems cannot be figured out with the current information alone, so let’s plan for the future.

"Tang Miao, take this and remember to keep it safe."

Shen Qiyin took out the puppet crystal and threw it to the other party.

"What the hell is this thing?"

"It's something similar to the Fear Core. You might know what it is after a while. Anyway, keep it for now."

"Oh."

Tang Miao obediently put the crystal into his pocket and was about to express his gratitude.

But at this moment, she suddenly heard a "sizzling" sound, like the sound of electricity.

"Did you hear it?"

"Yeah, it came from the bedroom." Shen Qiyin nodded slightly and said, "It sounds like the sound of a radio."

"I remember the radio was off. Could someone have turned it on? Uh, could it be a physical entity? It's still daytime!"

"Is it possible that besides us, there's another troublesome artificial idiot in the villa? Let's go check it out before she causes any trouble."

When the two hurried back to the bedroom, they saw Xiaoxiang standing in front of the table, his fingers on the radio. The radio, which had been silent for several days, suddenly emitted a channel communication tone indicating that it had received a signal.

"......Request support, repeat, request support!"

"Are there any other teams that can provide reinforcements? Repeat again! My unit was ambushed by an unknown 'qualified individual' and suffered heavy losses. Requesting support..."

Chapter 46: Desire Stone Planning

Seeing Shen Qiyin and Tang Miao come in, Xiaoxiang immediately took his hand away from the radio and stood up straight:

"It is now afternoon: 15:27 PM, the temperature is currently 13 degrees Celsius. It will be sunny for the rest of the day with light winds. The temperature is expected to drop to around 9 degrees Celsius in the evening. We recommend that you add or remove clothing as appropriate based on the weather."

"Don't worry about that for now!"

Shen Qiyin interrupted her and pointed at the radio, saying, "Which channel was it just now? Turn it on quickly!"

"Just now? I used the built-in spectrum analyzer to crack the active channel signal within a ten-kilometer radius, and then connected it to the radio..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm not here to listen to your radio cracking class!"

“After receiving feedback, stop the redundant nonsense and switch to concise communication mode.”

Xiaoxiang put her finger back on the radio. The moment she put her finger on it, the radio, which had been silent, started to ring again:

"Zizzizi..."

"...Teams A and B have been completely wiped out."

"Also, is there a team that can provide support?"

"We are located at Tiancheng Station, Metro Line 9, near the Tiancheng Interchange Exit..."

Hearing this, Shen Qiyin cast her gaze on Tang Miao: "Sounds like an official team?"

"From the tone of voice, it seems so. Apart from the military and police, no one would use such official terms, right?"

Tang Miao rubbed her chin, frowning as she pondered something. After a while, she asked cautiously, "Should we go help?"

"Of course not." Shen Qiyin refused flatly, "It will be dark in more than an hour. If we go there, we will definitely not be able to come back before dark.

More importantly, we still don't know how strong the qualified person who ambushed that team is.

You've said before that when an official investigation team conducts an investigation into an entity, they must be accompanied by an investigator, a qualified person, right?

Let's assume the worst-case scenario. The group that ambushed the investigation team was able to wipe out two official investigation teams. Their strength must not be underestimated. At the very least, they must be as talented as Zhao Feng."

Although Tang Miao did not witness the fight between Shen Qiyin and Zhao Feng with his own eyes, just from the other party's description, he could imagine how thrilling the battle between talented people was.

Therefore, Shen Qiyin’s judgment was correct. At this time, it is best not to be the first to take action.

Shen Qiyin noticed the worry in Tang Miao's eyes, and she knew in her heart that the official investigation team had saved Tang Miao's life. Moreover, in the current broken order, it was a matter of peace of mind for an official to continue to exist. It was normal for her to feel worried about this.

In fact, in terms of combat capability alone, Shen Qinyin's combat effectiveness is still very strong.

She possesses two special powers: insight and telekinesis. Insight helps her anticipate the enemy's moves and formulate strategies, while telekinesis allows her to attack or defend.

In addition, she also possesses the tactical humanoid Xiaoxiang, which, when fully powered and with sufficient energy, can rival a modern regimental-level mechanized force.

Ordinary enemies, let alone survivors with varying levels of equipment and personnel quality, even if active-duty troops were used, it would take a huge price to subdue Xiaoxiang, whose technology tree is several levels higher than that of modern armies.

The embarrassing thing is that the main opponents and threats to mankind are entities and strange beasts.

No matter how powerful your military force or how fierce your firepower is, those things are useless.

The same is true for those who have mastered the "forbidden knowledge".

Take Zhao Feng for example. If Shen Qiyin hadn't seen through the secret of his ability, and regular troops had come instead, even if they had blown him to pieces, he could still use puppetry to piece together other people's corpses and resurrect himself.

Not to mention that he can also control the "army of the undead".

In addition, the night is also a huge test.

One of the important reasons why Shen Qinyin and the others are still alive and well is that they stay at home and sleep well at night.

Just a D-class green haze was enough for them to deal with, not to mention that after nightfall, there were many undisclosed entities in the fog.

Who could guarantee that there was only one entity as powerful as Green Haze? There were certainly many more powerful than it, and the one in the basement of Shen Qiyin's villa was a living example.

"Xiaoxiang, close the channel."

"I got it."

Xiaoxiang took his hand away and stepped aside respectfully.

Shen Qiyin glanced at her slightly dim golden eyes and asked, "How much battery do you have left?"

"Current remaining battery: 6%. Currently in low power mode. It is expected to maintain normal operation for another 5 hours in this mode."

"Got it. You should go into hibernation first."

"Got it. Execute the hibernation plan."

As he finished speaking the last word, Xiaoxiang's eyes dimmed completely and his arms dropped down.

"Xiaoxiang's electricity problem has always been a concern for us~" Tang Miao touched his hair and sighed, "It would be great if we could install a nuclear power reactor for her."

Shen Qinyin smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

She also wanted a nuclear power reactor.

The key is that she doesn't have the corresponding materials to make this thing by hand.

What's more, it is useless to build a nuclear power reactor alone, and it cannot be installed in such a small robot.

The energy core built into Xiaoxiang is far more advanced than a nuclear power reactor in terms of technology alone.

Shen Qinyin has been thinking about the issue of battery upgrade these days.

She initially upgraded an ordinary battery into a power bank, which only required one lust stone.

To upgrade the power bank to a household battery, 3 Desire Stones are required.

When upgrading from household batteries to car batteries, the charge increases to 10 batteries, and when upgrading to industrial-grade batteries, the charge goes up to 20 batteries.

The further you go, the higher the Desire Stone you need.

But if you upgrade from a car battery to an industrial-grade battery from the beginning, the fee is only 5!

The most important thing is that higher-level batteries need to be supplemented with other materials before they can be further upgraded.

For example, if she wants to upgrade industrial-grade batteries into higher-level supercapacitors, she has to find other materials to "synthesize" them.

This is the reason why luncheon meat instant noodles could not be upgraded to seafood instant noodles and could only be upgraded to premium luncheon meat instant noodles.

So the question is, is Xiaoxiang's energy core an advanced form of existing matter after upgrading, or is it created out of thin air by the laptop?

Incomprehensible.

The big hand of the notebook is like this.
