Chapter 278: Mimicry Potion

In the morning, Ling Pingan woke up especially early.

He woke up before seven o’clock.

After a simple wash, he rushed downstairs.

“How many collections did I get last night?” He thought.

“Five? Ten?”

With such high expectations, he didn’t even pay attention to his pet’s daily attempt to act cute and please him.

He didn’t open the shop first like in the past.

Instead, he first turned on the computer and sat at the counter, waiting anxiously.

The old-fashioned computer turned on slowly.

There was also a lot of noise, especially from the fans, which was very loud.

However, Ling Pingan was already used to it.

He listened to the sound in the computer case and watched the screen slowly light up. Two minutes later, the window finally appeared as usual.

He immediately clicked into the web page, entered the author backstage, and nervously looked at the data on the screen.

Suddenly..

It’s like cold water rained down on his head.

Five..

Only two collections in one night!

He froze!

Scratching his head, the young web writer began to think.

Is it the book? He asked himself.

And got a negative answer.

So, was it the exposure?

He thought and hesitated.

Then, he clicked into the back of the chapter and saw the number of comments in the first chapter: 1.

He was instantly delighted!

After all, the last book had almost 800,000 words, and the chapter of the first chapter was just so-so!

What did this mean?

It meant that the starting point of this book was equivalent to the previous book’s 800,000 words!

A cause to celebrate!

A cause to celebrate!

He immediately clicked on it impatiently, wanting to see which handsome guy had such great eyesight.

In the end, he saw a comment from a reader with an ID of a digital account: “Checking in.”

Ling Pingan scratched his head. “Checking in?”

“What do you mean?”

He didn’t quite understand. Was this good or bad?

However, due to the reserved nature of an author, he couldn’t ask directly.

Therefore, after thinking for a while, he picked up his phone and quickly logged into his book reading account. He found his book, clicked on the book collection, and then ran to the comment and typed.

This way, he could preserve the dignity of the author.

After doing this, he stood up and opened the shop door.

This morning, the temperature in Jiangcheng city was very suitable.

The thin morning fog filled the streets.

People who were jogging on the road were returning. Ling Pingan took a deep breath of the fresh air and called out comfortably.

When he reached the intersection, Aunt Cai’s breakfast shop next door had already opened.

Moreover, there were people lining up.

Ling Pingan walked over and heard Aunt Cai talking to someone.

“Has your family’s young master assessed his score for this year’s College Entrance Exam?” Aunt Cai asked.

“He estimated it!” That person was very excited. “At least 430 points!”

“The top universities are guaranteed!” He was very proud. “Well, I specially came out to buy the child his favorite tofu pudding!”

Ling Pingan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this.

430 points?

Thinking of his college entrance exam results, he lowered his head in shame.

The college entrance exam of the Federal Empire was divided into two subjects, arts and science.

The total score of the two subjects was the same, 500 points.

The difference was that arts focused on literature, geography, and history, while science was biased towards mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

Regardless of which subject, the total score of 430 points was enough to be accepted into a top university.

If one were to apply to a top-tier local university, they might even be able to step on the threshold of a scholarship!

It was truly amazing!

Aunt Cai said, “Congratulations, Congratulations… your child is the fourth child I’ve heard of this year who has scored on the top points…”

“Four?” That person was rather surprised.

Ling Pingan was also surprised. The top universities in the federal empire were not that easy to get into!

That was because there were hundreds of millions of people of the same age competing with the examinees!

There were four people on the same street who scored the key points?

Were young people nowadays so hardworking in their studies?

Ling Pingan felt embarrassed once again.

That was because when he took the college entrance exam back then, he had only gotten 278 points despite all his efforts!

He was still far from the score line of a college book back then. He had relied on his parents to barely get into a college.

Aunt Cai continued, “My daughter will be taking the college entrance exam next year. I hope she can get a good result too!”

“Definitely!” The person said, “This place is a treasure land of feng shui, Wen Qu Xing street!”

“That’s right!” Aunt Cai said with a smile.

Ling Pingan listened and scratched his head. The place of Wen Qu Xing?

This term was indeed very popular in this area recently.

It was said that the land of literary songs was the place where literary songs shone and the literary fortunes were prosperous. In the future, it would be the prime minister.

Therefore, the housing prices were rising like a rocket.

However, Ling Pingan felt that this was probably the real estate developers hyping up the market.

In any case, those capitalists could not get out of the eye of the money.

They were good at hyping up the market.

… … … … ..

Situ He arrived at his office early in the morning.

As soon as he sat down and turned on his office computer, he received a work email.

It was from the capital’s think tank.

He opened the email and took a look.

Then, he frowned.

This was the analysis report of the think tank.

Last night, the think tank had organized manpower overnight to prepare for the work he had assigned.

They were divided into three groups to conduct the test.

The results were..

The first group of ordinary people all reported that they had no reaction after reading the target book.

They could freely collect or download the target book.

The second group of transcendent beings all reported that for one reason or another, they did not actively collect books until the tester asked them to.

The third group was a mix of ordinary people and transcendent beings.

The results repeated the process of the two groups.

This was a test conducted at four o’clock last night, and the tester was not informed of the purpose of the test. It was conducted in the form of a social test or an interview.

Looking at the report and the analysis behind it, Situ He slowly frowned.

“There is no doubt that the target book has a certain psionic power characteristic..

“As a network data, it seems to have some peculiarities…”

“It seems to possess the ability to recognize readers…”

“I strongly recommend that we continue the test!”

Looking at the summary on the email, Situ He pondered for a moment before replying, “Please arrange a top-secret test as appropriate…”

“The test contents are for comparison…”

“Continue with three groups…”

“Group A is the normal group, Group B is the transcendent being group, and Group D is the mixed group…”

“All test personnel, conduct close and long-term observation…”

After thinking for a while, Situ He emphasized in his reply, “Please do not interfere with all decisions. Also, all test personnel’s decisions, please do not put them into practice!”

After replying to the email, the Blackguard general frowned.

Although he had expected it, he was still shocked after learning of the situation.

The owner of the bookstore could even bestow a certain amount of psionic power on the data on the internet.

Moreover, he seemed to have the ability to distinguish and identify.

He would give feedback to different readers.

This was too scary!

Because this meant that he might be able to release a wide range of magic art through the Internet.

In other words, in today’s society, as long as he was willing, he could instantly eliminate his enemies through the internet.

He could even..

Eliminate the humans through the Internet!

Just thinking about this made Situ He’s hair stand up!

That was why he emphasized that he didn’t actually do it.

He was afraid that something unexpected would happen!

Especially since he didn’t know what that person’s intentions were at the moment, he had to be careful!

… ..

Sitting at the counter, Ling Pingan ate his breakfast.

The kitten, Bastet, kept buying cuteness in front of him.

It seemed that this morning, Ling Pingan didn’t pay attention to it like before, which made it feel a little pressured.

Ling Pingan looked at it happily.

A pet could sense danger?

This was not bad!

Therefore, after breakfast, Ling Pingan picked up the little guy and played with it in his arms for a while before putting it on the counter.

“Continue working!”bHe said, “Today, I have to write at least seven or eight thousand words!”

Meow!

The kitten meowed softly, as if it was cheering for its master.

Ling Pingan sat down, straightened the keyboard, opened the document, and the sound of typing rang out in the bookstore.

… … … ..

Ran Bing led the refugees behind her as they trudged through the howling sandstorm.

She looked ahead at the buildings that were gradually appearing.

She finally heaved a long sigh of relief.

“Everyone, follow me!”

“We’re almost there!”

“A safe new home!”

The people listened and looked at each other. Where was a safe new home?

Wasn’t the ground all the same?

Sandstorms, Scarlet Beasts, and even more dangerous monsters!

But over the past few days, this woman who had forcefully killed the Pope had indeed displayed an inhuman ability.

Moreover, she seemed to know many things.

Thus, the people gathered their vigor and followed Ran Bing’s footsteps.

A group of several hundred people moved forward with difficulty in the sandstorm.

Ran Bing walked straight to the high wall that she had not been able to enter that day.

It had already been blown down by the sandstorm.

The houses inside the high wall had also been buried by the Sandstorm.

Without the maintenance of people, the buildings were so fragile.

Han Li led the people in.

Then, she walked to the tunnel that had left the underground that day and opened the steel-cast cover.

Without a doubt, all the umbrella employees that used to be here had fallen under her gun and turned into coins.

The people watched Ran Bing’s actions.

They hesitated.

Underground?

But they had no choice but to follow.

One by one, they followed Ran Bing down the corridor that led straight to the underground.

The underground tunnel was dark. Unlike Ran Bing, people could not see in the dark. Thus, they turned on all kinds of flashlights and lighting tools.

Therefore, the full view of the underground passage was revealed to everyone.

The spiral-shaped steel railings circled and descended.

The walls on both sides were specially reinforced.

The traces of steel and cement were clearly visible.

More importantly, many places showed that this place was maintained by people.

“What is this place?” Someone asked.

“Are there any other survivors like us?” Some smart people asked.

Ran Bing listened and turned around. She looked at the people and smiled, “In the past, there were indeed people living here…”

“You will know when you go in…”

“Everyone will know…”

“Floating city, religion…”

“And…” she lowered her eyes, “The real crisis facing US humans!”

The people looked at each other and followed ran bing down.

Half an hour later, the people finally arrived at the base.

Countless karst caves, glowing moss.

And..

Ran Bing led them all the way.

The people saw the living corpses soaked in the jars, and the umbrella workers who had fallen in the karst caves. It was obvious that they were no longer human.

Finally, they saw the underground world.

The underground world created by the Kun Yang people.

Forests, plains, rivers..

There was even light here!

The Kun Yang People’s Crystal Sun illuminated this world on the rocks of the underground world, bringing light and heat.

“This is the reason why our world has become like this!”

“Some people, the company called Umbrella, have betrayed us humans!”

“They now call themselves immortals, evolved humans…”

“And in their eyes, we are livestock, cows and horses… We are other races that have been eliminated and exterminated by Homo sapiens!”

“And…” Ran Bing raised her head. “The religions in the floating city… whether it’s the church of light in A1 floating city where I was before, or the Lord of Truth in your floating city…”

“It’s all controlled by the Umbrella!”

“They’re using our flesh and blood as stepping stones!”

With Ran Bing’s words, the people finally understood.

Especially when ran Bing led them personally into the pyramid of the Kunyang people, they finally understood everything in front of the truth.

… … ..

Han Li walked on this chaotic land.

The murmurs by her ears were rustling.

She knew that she was getting closer and closer to the other main ingredient of the freedom potion, the desire origin liquid!

But..

She didn’t dare to act rashly.

Because..

This abyssal land was called the Silent Prairie.

Now, its master had changed the name to the Yenogu’s territory.

The map in her hand was clearly marked.

The realm of Enochus was the territory of the Gnoll God Enochus!

It was an opponent she could not defeat!

Therefore, she had to be careful. She had to be careful.

However, the pursuers behind her were pursuing her relentlessly.

This was the third day after she destroyed the ship of chaos.

It was also the third day of her escape!

That ship actually had a master!

After she cleared out the entire ship of demons, she was immediately targeted by the owner of the ship.

The demon lord named Buffett was furious.

One of his incarnations had personally come to hunt her down!

Han Li finally managed to escape from the other party’s entanglement and escaped into this abyssal plane.

But..

Han Li knew that as long as she attacked here, she would definitely be discovered by the incarnation of the demon lord and would immediately chase after her.

Fortunately..

Han Li looked at some of the descriptions on the map.

She had an idea!

The murmurs beside her ears also cheered for her idea.

Thus, a hazy scene appeared in front of her eyes.

Mr. Amur’s shadow appeared again.

He grabbed a handful of abyssal soil and slightly exerted force.

A few soul crystals instantly shattered and mixed with the abyssal soil. Then, Mr. Amur mixed them with the juice of four different abyssal plants.

Thus, a pill appeared in Mr. Amur’s hand.

Mr. Amur casually threw it into the mouth of an experimental subject.

A miracle happened. The experimental subject that was clearly just a small inferior demon instantly turned into a balrog.

Then, it turned into a succubus..

But in essence, it was still a small inferior demon.

Mimicry Potion!

This was a test potion that Mr. Amur had developed for his experiment.

As long as it was consumed, it could simulate the appearance and smell of almost all abyssal species within a day.

Han Li looked at this scene and took out a few soul crystals.

Then, she found the four abyssal plants nearby.

They were all very common things.

Abyssal grass, rotten flowers, broken trees, Netherworld fruits..

These things were as common as weeds in all planes of the Abyss.

Han Li took them and found a safe place.

Then, she squatted down and used the soul crystals to form a special symbol on the ground.

She didn’t have Mr. Amur’s power, so she could only use this symbol to ask the lord of the Deep Space Sea for help.

Then, she grabbed a handful of abyss soil and abruptly crushed the soul crystal in her hand.

The moment the soul crystal shattered, it automatically entangled with the abyss soil.

This was the rule!

It was also the instinct of the Abyss and the Styx!

All souls that died in the Abyss had to return to the Styx, even gods were no exception!

Taking advantage of this time, Han Li squeezed out all the juice from the four plants.

The SAP dripped onto the entangled abyssal soil and Soul Crystal Powder.

In an instant, it was like a piece of paper soaked in ink.

Everything let out a ghostly wail.

Vaguely, it seemed that something was projecting its will over.

At this moment, the symbol placed by Han Li suddenly lit up.

A thin and bony figure was covered by layers of tattered yellow robes. A gorgeous crown was placed on its head.

In an instant, this figure became incomparably tall.

A gentle breeze began to surround Han Li’s body.

This breeze was a nameless wind, but it was also a wind that did not exist.

It blew from an unknown dimension.

As a result, all gazes were shifted.

In Han Li’s hand, a green pill started to spin.

Mimicry potion completed!

Han Li grabbed it and poured it into her mouth without thinking.

Her figure slowly started to change.

An unknown strength started to spread.

She slowly turned into an evil and dirty gnoll.

But in reality, it was just a layer of illusion, a layer of mimicry illusion. She herself did not change at all.

This was the magic of the mimicry potion!

With the strength of the Abyss itself, the user could transform into any abyssal species without being seen through by others!

As long as one did not attack, this layer of disguise was something that few people in the entire abyss world could see through!

Han Li raised her head. Under the Phantoms, she smiled.

If the Abyss Lord who gave her the map was not lying.

Then the Buffett who was chasing her and the master of this place were mortal enemies!

The kind that wouldn’t rest until one of them was dead!
