I’m Not a Human Anymore!

Chapter 17: Two abilities

Views:

Because of the captain's previous explanation, the attention focused on Xu Dongyou gradually decreased over time.

I believe that in a few days, no one will remember this.

Xu Dongyou returned to school and attended classes as usual. Because the real cause of death of the student who jumped from the building could not be made public, and everyone saw that he jumped by himself, the police could only classify it as suicide.

However, the school and the government gave the family of the deceased a large amount of compensation out of humanitarian reasons.

As for the corpse, since it was not contaminated by any evil spirits, it was returned to the family of the deceased.

It's over.

However, as a member of the processing bureau, there are still follow-up things to do, that is, you need to submit a task report, and after confirmation, the corresponding task points reward will be issued.

Fortunately, all members of the team participated in this incident, so Tian Ze just had to submit the report.

Tian Ze simply waved his hand and threw the follow-up task to Zhao Liu.

Less than a few hours later, Xu Dongyou received a points notification from the processing bureau system.

There are five points in total, exactly one point per person.

But the captain said that he would try to let the entire team handle this incident together. Otherwise, there would be no need to involve so many people in this incident.

Therefore, each person was awarded an extra point.

All were satisfied and happy.

Xu Dongyou increasingly hoped that he could improve his abilities so that he could become an independent manager.

Speaking of this, Xu Dongyou remembered the rewards for the supreme mission, and there seemed to be no news yet.

I don’t know what kind of good things the headquarters will give me.

The more Xu Dongyou thought about it, the more he looked forward to it.

After another two or three days, the people from the handling bureau found that they could not find Xu Dongyou, and no matter how envious they were of this matter, it would not change anything, so they dispersed and went about doing what they had to do.

The hall returned to its former tranquility.

The captain immediately urged Tian Ze to call Xu Dongyou over and learn how to use psychic power.

Tian Ze did as he was told.

When Xu Dongyou came to deal with the situation, he still wore his hat cautiously and low-key.

Tian Ze said: "Everyone has different abilities and focuses. Generally, you gradually realize your strengths in the process of completing tasks. However, for the most basic things like this, you can go directly to the practice room to watch videos and learn. You can only remember them in your mind and cannot write them down in any way and take them out."

Xu Dongyou nodded and entered the practice room with curiosity and nervousness. The processing bureau thoughtfully set up a separate practice room, in which several people could be vaguely seen watching the video attentively.

Xu Dongyou also chose a practice room and went in. Then he found a translucent screen popped up in front of him, showing different categories.

There are talismans, formations, weapons, and so on.

Xu Dongyou didn’t know what he was good at, so he decided to first get a general understanding of the characteristics of each category and then choose one that he was more interested in to start learning.

By the time Xu Dongyou had a general understanding of the videos after clicking on them one by one, four hours had passed.

Xu Dongyou moved his shoulders and felt extremely sore, and his bones were making protesting sounds.

He stood up and stretched for a while, then sat down again, pursing his lips and thinking seriously.

Based on our current understanding, it seems that talismans are more comprehensive. They can be used for both offense and defense. They are very flexible and even very easy to carry.

It is no problem to stack up a thick stack of talismans and put them in your pocket.

But the problem is that these finished talismans are very expensive. Three simple talismans can be purchased with 1 point, and the higher the level, the more expensive they are.

It's very expensive.

Many processors are reluctant to buy it, and often choose to purchase the special blank talisman paper produced by the processing bureau themselves.

Draw it yourself.

However, the pattern of the talisman is very complicated, and it needs to be infused with spiritual energy into the special cinnabar which is still produced by the Processing Bureau, and then outlined bit by bit.

Some people have low spiritual power and can only draw one picture, which takes them a week to recover.

Xu Dongyou's spiritual power is very high among newcomers, so perhaps he can try the talisman route.

Talismans have various functions. There are talismans that can immobilize evil spirits and ghosts. When used in conjunction with spells, they also require psychic power to control.

As for the formation, it is a very powerful one, but also has the most restrictions.

It is best used when preparing an ambush formation in advance.

Zhao Liu prefers the formation type, so he needs Zhang Wu to stop the evil spirits in the front, and he needs at least one minute to set up the formation in the back.

As for Tianze, it is a bit like a weapon. It contains enchanted items and its lethality is also not to be underestimated, but it requires very advanced Mucang method.

Of course, there are other enchanted props, such as maces, long swords, etc., but since these things are very inconvenient to carry, especially in urban areas, it is very easy to cause attention and panic.

So you have to put it in the trunk and take it out when you need it, but by then it may not be too late.

Therefore, most people who use weapons will choose small ones. However, the usage requirements are too high, so currently more handlers choose talismans and formations.

After thinking it over again and again, Xu Dongyou decided to choose talismans as well.

After determining his future direction, Xu Dongyou began to learn from tutorial videos on how to use psychic energy, which required him to close his eyes and concentrate to carefully feel the energy in his body.

Then try to focus this energy into the palms of your hands.

But the tutorial also said that most people can easily succeed in the first step, but it will take at least three days to achieve the second step.

So don't be impatient. Being patient will make it easier to succeed.

So Xu Dongyou kept a calm mind. He closed his eyes and concentrated to carefully feel the energy in his body, but the more he felt, the more he felt that something seemed to be wrong.

It was not until he felt completely different energies in his left and right palms that he suddenly fell into confusion.

Why... are there two types

Moreover, the energy in the left palm seemed to be faintly floating with a light white mist, which might even be overlooked if one did not look carefully.

As for the palm of his right hand, he could not see anything, but Xu Dongyou could indeed feel the energy lurking in his palm.

Could this have something to do with my identity as a demon

Xu Dongyou dispersed the two energies in his nervous heart. At this time, he couldn't concentrate on studying, so he simply left the practice room.

Tian Ze immediately walked over and asked, "How is it, have you chosen which road to take?"

Xu Dongyou carefully looked around a few times, and after making sure that there was no one around, he leaned over and whispered, "Captain, I'm having a little problem with sensing my psychic energy."

Especially when it comes to the words "a little problem", the voice is slightly lowered to indicate that it is really a small problem.

Tian Ze didn't think much about it, and waved his hand, "Then tell me about it. As someone who has been through this, I might be able to help you solve it."

Xu Dongyou stretched out his two hands and said in a very low voice: "When I sensed the spiritual energy, I felt two kinds of power in my hands."

Tian Ze reacted greatly and shouted: "What?!!!"

Xu Dongyou was a little nervous: "Captain, please keep your voice down."

Tian Ze was shocked, and finally lowered his voice and asked, "Is it true?"

Then he thought of something and said to Xu Dongyou: "Could it be related to your identity?"

After all, Xu Dongyou is not a human being, but a demon.

Xu Dongyou thought so too. He was a little confused. "Do the demon race also have demon power and spiritual energy?"

Tian Ze: “…”

He really doesn't know this.

Facing Xu Dongyou's eyes full of curiosity, Tian Ze found that he couldn't even say that he didn't know the answer, but the matter was very serious. Tian Ze thought for a while and said, "I'll ask the captain about this for you."

Xu Dongyou nodded.

In less than a few minutes, the captain sent a message saying that he didn't know either, but he went to the top floor to ask Old Chen. Old Chen was also shocked and surprised, and said that he would check the information of the monster clan carefully in the next few days and tell Xu Dongyou then.

He also said not to worry too much and that it is a good thing to have two abilities.

After Tian Ze finished relaying the story, Xu Dongyou finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.

His eyes were curved like crescent moons, making people want to smile along. "Then I feel relieved. Thank you, Captain. Please remember to thank the captain for me as well."

As for Mr. Chen, he could wait until Saturday or Sunday to go and thank him specially.

Tian Ze's heart suddenly swelled, and he felt that his position as captain seemed even more glorious and great. "You're welcome. So, have you chosen which path to take?"

He almost forgot about the important matter.

Xu Dongyou told Tian Ze that he had chosen the path of talismans, and also explained the reasons for his choice.

Tian Ze didn't look surprised at all. "There are quite a lot of people in our bureau who choose this. Besides, you have high spiritual power. If you are short of points in the future, you can draw some talismans and sell them up."

Xu Dongyou agreed with this. He thought that he could use his points to exchange for some RMB and buy a gift for his brother.

When he returned to school, Xu Dongyou remembered that he had forgotten to ask Tian Ze about the ghost baby's mother.

I quickly contacted Tian Ze using the psychic watch and mentioned this matter.

Tian Ze quickly replied, saying that he had used the bureau's system to check and found the ghost baby's mother, and also told her that Ren Haiming had been sentenced to death for killing the baby.

The student who jumped to his death from the school building had been classified as committing suicide, so it was impossible to tell the woman that Ren Haiming had actually killed two people.

The woman was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and finally said: "Thank you for telling me the news."

Then left.

Tian Ze also said that the woman already had a new boyfriend and was about to get married. When she did not refuse Ren Haiming's proposal to send the child to the countryside, she might have already stopped wanting the child.

So when he heard the news that the child had been killed, he was silent for just a few seconds.

Xu Dongyou felt uncomfortable.

If you don't like the child, why give birth to it

Why bring children into this world

Because of this incident, Xu Dongyou has been in a bad mood these days, but he still insists on learning to control spiritual power in a hidden corner of the school to improve his strength.

When Saturday came, Xu Dongyou first went to the top floor of the processing bureau to thank Mr. Chen for his help in the past few days.

Old Chen smiled and took out another pot of tea.

Xu Dongyou hesitated for a few seconds, but finally finished the drink obediently. Then he burped and asked Mr. Chen if there was any way to determine whether the other party was a monster.

As if Master Chen understood Xu Dongyou's thoughts, he said, "It's impossible to tell whether it's a monster after it transforms into a human form. In fact, I've already found out something about you and your parents. Do you want to know?"

After all, it is the only cub of the demon clan, so of course he needs to know all the information about the cub, and therefore he specially went to the director-general for help.

Xu Dongyou pursed his lips and finally replied: "I... want to know."
