《fall into darkness》Chapter 79: "Soul Crystallization"
Advertisement
Regarding this issue, Du Dian was well prepared, and honestly followed the previous rhetoric: "I don't know this either. After I passed out of coma, I had this."
"Coma?" Wei Dun was very interested and said, "How did you get coma?"
Du Di'an was calm on the surface, but his mind was spinning rapidly. If he changed it to the previous one, he would only vaguely say "I don't know" to bring it. But when he heard Pete's words, he knew that the hunters had already investigated the eighth district, and after learning about the magic marks, he also understood that this was not unique to him, but that every hunter had some peculiar abilities. The hunter burned the corpse, and his corpse was also eaten by the black behemoth, but he was not sure whether there were any traces left at the scene that he hadn't noticed, exposing him.
Moreover, the death of a hunter and the birth of a hunter are both big events, and it is easy for people to associate them together.
Thinking of this, Du Di'an changed his mind and said, "I saw a hunter fight with a huge monster, and I was so frightened that I fainted. Lord, what is that monster? It's so big!" He couldn't help clenching it tightly, his body trembled slightly, as if he couldn't stop the fear in his heart.
Xie Dun glanced at his slightly trembling legs under the tea table, with a little thought in his eyes, the process only paused for a few seconds, he quickly retracted his gaze, lowered his head and made a sketch on the notebook, saying: "Then The monster is called the Dread Dye, it belongs to the named monster, and the parasitic soul worm has been born in the body, your magic mark is actually the corpse of the parasitic soul worm."
"Fear of the dye?" Du Dian murmured, and then he knew the name of the monster killed by him, but the last words made him a little surprised. Just when he wanted to ask directly, he suddenly became alert, and his face showed panic. Said: "Sir, what is the parasitic soul worm you are talking about, it, it entered my body? Then I, then I am not..."

Eidun raised his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I said, that magic mark is the corpse of a parasitic soul worm, it was already dead when it burrowed into your body, but although it is dead, it will come soon. Before death, it was connected to your body. Its corpse turned into a magic mark, and the location of the magic mark is your deadly place. It is as important as your head and heart. Remember to protect it carefully in the future, and the best Don't reveal the location of your magic marks casually."
Du Dian was stunned for a while, but there was a surprise in his heart. He was always worried that the worm was in his chest, and he might attack him at any time. He didn't expect to be dead, so the hidden danger was much smaller! At the same time, he also captured a piece of information from Ye Dun's words. It seems that the location of each person's magic marks is different, his own is on his chest, and other hunters are on other parts.
"Little guy, you are very lucky." Yu Dun said with a smile: "If you can get such an opportunity, the goddess of luck will take care of you. Originally, the headquarters planned to see your performance. If you performed well, wait for another two years. I will give you a chance to apply for a study at the Hunter Academy, and then buy a parasitic soul worm for you, so that you can become a truly qualified hunter."
"Unexpectedly, you unexpectedly became a hunter ahead of time. In this way, it saved the headquarters of the funds to buy parasitic soul worms. Moreover, your magic marks are still afraid of dyers. You may not know this. It is an extremely rare type of monster named, I believe that when you arrive at the headquarters, other hunters will be very jealous of you."
Du Di'an continued: "This is all thanks to the cultivation of the consortium! Sir, what are the parasitic soul worms you are talking about? Do you want to buy them? Don't we have them in the consortium?"

"This is a type of parasite that feeds on the souls of monsters." Dian didn't mind explaining it to Du Di'an, and smiled: "It is usually found in more special powerful monsters. Once this thing enters the human body, it will die! Therefore, the ability of the hunters cannot be given to each other, so the number of hunters has been unable to increase, because there are too few named monsters, and it is difficult to meet."
"Although the consortium has the ability to capture the named monsters, it has not yet found a way to raise the parasitic soul worms, unless it is to directly raise the named monsters, but the monsters are not allowed to be brought back into the wall, so they can only be purchased from the Holy See of Light. , they have the cradle of the god of light, and they can save the live parasitic soul worms, but the price is extremely expensive."
Du Dian came to a realization, but his heart was secretly awe-inspiring. It is no wonder that the Holy See of Light, as a religious organization, can recruit a large number of guards and knights. Even all financial groups need to give the Holy See of Light face. It turns out that in addition to superficial beliefs, there are deep substantive interests. penetration.
"This time I asked you to come here in secret. Your identity as a hunter has not been disclosed yet, including other high-level executives in our headquarters, who are still not aware of it." Wei Dun smiled: "This is to protect you, and I hope you don't make too much publicity. , the headquarters will send someone over to confirm your identity soon, and after confirmation, they will go through the identity procedures for you and become a hunter of our consortium."
Du Dian nodded slightly, but secretly said in his heart, in addition to protecting me, the real purpose should be to be afraid of other consortiums knowing the news and secretly digging their feet, right?
"Oh, there's one more thing." Yu Dun suddenly remembered and said: "The seven soul crystals you submitted, also known as cold crystals, each cost a gold coin, although your identity has not been processed yet, But this is given according to the proportion of the hunters, and if they are scavengers, they can only get one silver coin."
Soul Crystal? Only then did Du Di'an know the name of the dark blue ball, and at the same time, his heart was stunned. The ratio of the scavenger and the hunter was ten times different. You must know that he is a seed object, and he has a 30% share. , isn't the hunter a 300% share? Isn't the consortium losing money?
Seemingly seeing Du Dian's surprise, Wei Dun smiled and said: "Anyway, you are going to the Hunter's Headquarters, let me tell you the truth, the percentage of the scavenger's income is 50% of the total price of the consortium's transportation costs. , the remaining 50% will be paid by individuals for material identification fees, consortium transportation fees and other handling fees and taxes, and then divided with the consortium, this is the case with all consortiums, not our family."
Du Di'an was stunned when he heard it, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly. The businessman's way of making money is really cruel. Think about those scavengers who work hard to pick up everywhere outside the wall, and even endanger their lives. Things can only be divided into a very small part, and the consortium only needs to provide channels and other channels outside the wall to obtain a lot of profits, which is simply a white wolf with empty gloves.
"It seems that the really powerful businessmen are not transactions at all, but robbery." Du Di'an felt that he had learned a lot.
"What does this soul crystal do?" Du Dian asked curiously.

There's a reason people made the word improbable. Just because something would never happen based on common sense or reason, doesn't mean it can't happen. For example, a soul maintaining their memories through the River of the afterlife, a stream of ethereal energies that remove and store memories from the recently departed only to return when they die again. Another example, a soul by it's sheer will maintaining awareness during the process of a new body's development; nearly infintesimile chances of happening, but there is still a chance. Hi, you can call me Esseu (S U) and I managed to do both of those nearly impossible things back to back. My reward for such a feat? I was turned into a glorified bee keeper.
