A piece of information suddenly appeared in Alex's mind, but unlike the violent gift from Elizabeth before, this piece of information was like flowing water and did not cause him any burden.
He concentrated on analyzing it for a while, and murmured, "Meditation method?"
Colin retracted his finger and said calmly, "The unity of soul and body brings you many benefits. You can even deal with evil spirits, demons and other monsters that ordinary people cannot deal with. But also because of the special nature of your body, every time you use the ability to devour, a certain amount of soul fragments of the devoured person will remain in your body."
"For now, it's okay because you haven't absorbed many people, so the impact on you is not that big. But as time goes on, if you absorb too many people, the soul fragments will become larger and larger, and your personality, reason, and self-cognition will all have problems. In the end, your self-consciousness will collapse, and your body will turn into an indescribable monster. This is very likely to happen."
Alex listened with a grim expression.
He wanted to refute the man's words, but his personal experience told him that all this was very likely true. He often felt the person being devoured in his body.
"Can this meditation method solve my problem?" Alex asked, looking up.
"Probably." Colin did not give a definite answer. "The meditation method I gave you can strengthen your soul and clear your messy thoughts. It should not be a problem to solve your current mild condition. But your situation is special. This is the first time I have seen it. I am not sure whether meditation can work."
There are thousands of meditation methods in the necromancer's heritage, with all kinds of effects. What he gave was a meditation method that was quite effective for purifying souls. The first half did not involve the part of condensing magic power.
Even so, the value is not small, but if you want to do a favor, you should do it enough. If you can exchange half of the meditation method for a good relationship and powerful ally, it would be a huge profit.
Maybe this can be considered a kind of angel investment
Colin thought about it and couldn't help but smile in his heart.
"Anyway, thank you very much." Alex was silent for a moment, then thanked Colin very seriously.
It is conceivable that without Colin's reminder, he would have continued to slide into the future that Colin mentioned.
This was a life-saving favor. Although he had a cold temperament, he was definitely not an ungrateful person.
Colin listened and smiled. This was what he was doing. Naturally, he would not refuse this thank you. After thinking for a while, he said, "I know you are investigating the matter behind this virus incident. To be honest, I have also found someone to help me investigate. If you see them in danger during the investigation, I hope you can help them."
As he spoke, Colin handed the photo of Lupin and his four companions to Alex.
He has great confidence in the abilities of Lupin and others, and does not think he needs Alex's help. He gave him the photo at this time just hoping that the two sides would not fight.
But what Alex said after taking the photo surprised him.
"I saw three of them not long ago, but I'm not sure if they're still alive now."
Alex took out photos of Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon and said with a frown.
From the moment he saw the photo, he recognized that these were the three people he encountered when he crashed into the building before. He was even more impressed because there was one less monster chasing him.
But the problem now is that people had just asked him to help look after the child, but in the blink of an eye, because of him, the person they were helping to look after is now unknown whether he is alive or dead. This is a bit embarrassing.
"What's going on?" Colin's eyes widened.
Alex explained it and Colin listened, breathing a sigh of relief.
"Only one hunter? That's fine."
Lupin and the other two were all here, so it was impossible for one hunter to take them out. Moreover, he hadn't received any distress signal, so they must have solved the problem by now.
Colin looked up and glanced at Alex. After thinking for a moment, he gave his phone number and told Alex to contact him if he had anything. Then he left the rooftop.
He considered whether to tell Alex more, or even reveal some of his plans to get him to cooperate.
But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not appropriate.
After all, this was their first meeting. Not to mention that he couldn't completely trust Alex, Alex probably wouldn't trust him too much either.
It is just right now. With a good start, it will be easy to deal with others later. It is really not advisable to do anything unnecessary.
…
At night, the moonlight illuminates the earth like water.
Outside the headquarters of the Kintek Group, dozens of cars belonging to S.H.I.E.L.D. were parked not far away. A large number of agents in combat uniforms got out of the cars and made various preparations under the orders of Captain America Steve Rogers.
"Internal circuit cut off..."
"The signal blocking device has been installed..."
"The first team has arrived at the designated location..."
"… "
The voices of the various teams came from the headsets. The captain saw that the team members behind him had already assembled and immediately gave the order: "Begin the action."
Swish!
There was no crisp response, but the uniform footsteps made the operators more elite.
"Sharon, you have been here before and know where the virus data is stored. After invading, take the virus data away as soon as possible!"
"Yes, I will ensure that the task is completed."
During the conversation on the intercom, the group had already infiltrated the Jintek Group.
From the moment Blackwatch began to dispatch troops to the genetic engineering experimental base, SHIELD had already noticed it.
And when those monsters appeared on the streets, they were the first to know the news.
Although they were caught off guard by this sudden situation at first, under Nick's leadership, they quickly regained their composure and developed new response measures.
Among them, this operation was also carried out one day earlier than planned.
Bang bang bang!
A chaotic burst of gunfire rang out throughout the building.
Because of the last invasion, the security capabilities within the Jintek Group have been greatly improved compared to before.
But they were quickly wiped out by the elite SHIELD agents led by Hawkeye and Natasha.
Three underground floors.
Most of the researchers in the Jintek Group who have signed a confidentiality agreement usually live here.
But at this moment, the once peaceful base was covered in blood and corpses.
"Boss, an intruder has been spotted upstairs."
A burly man in a black suit hurriedly stepped over the body of the researcher in a white coat and came to Raymond, who had just returned from the Blackwatch base, and said.
