[Ding...]
[Congratulations on successfully comprehending the skill—Willpower Breakdown (Excellent)]
Effect: When physically torturing and ntally tornting a target, the target's will to resist will accelerate its breakdown and collapse, and a seed of fear towards you will be planted in their heart. Synergistic effects are greatly increased.
Yu Yuan looked at the suddenly appearing notification, a look of surprise also appearing on his face.
"Finally digested Loris's notebook thoroughly. This skill effect is pretty good!"
This skill, combined with the [High-Pressure Cage] and [Containnt Room] found from the Loris brothers, is a perfect match.
The ti was already 9 PM. Yu Yuan put the book back on the Magazine Display Stand, geared up, and left the shelter.
He was going to complete the first stage task of the [Regional Event—Endless Cold Wave]: exploring outside for 3 hours daily for ten consecutive days.
Today was already the fourth day.
He didn't plan to waste it either, intending to search nearby for so materials to upgrade the planting racks, making future upgrades easier.
However, a faint call suddenly sounded in his Tactical Earphones.
"This is Masier, can you hear ?"
Huh?
Masier?
Yu Yuan imdiately replied.
"Masier, I read you, what's up?"
"Wow, it really works! Sister Mona is here, are you coming over?"
Hearing this, Yu Yuan had already made Mie Mie change direction, running towards District 11.
"I'm on my way, I'll be there soon."
Ending the call, Mie Mie was already sprinting wildly through the sewer. This path was so familiar it couldn't be more familiar.
Yu Yuan, anwhile, kept watching the icons displayed on the Combat Detector, staying alert for any potential dangers.
Soon, they arrived at Canchino Street.
When Yu Yuan appeared as usual under the surveillance cara at Masier's house.
Masier had already opened the door and was waving at Yu Yuan.
"Get in here, quick!"
Yu Yuan didn't expect Masier to actually let him into the room and hesitated subconsciously.
He then saw Mona's figure appear behind Masier, looking at Yu Yuan and giving a slight nod.
Seeing this, Yu Yuan no longer hesitated. With a few agile hops, he slipped into the room.
"Quick, to the basent!"
As the door closed tightly, Masier threw out these words and walked ahead, leading the way to the basent.
Yu Yuan followed behind Masier, surveying the interior of the house.
It has to be said, this house truly lived up to its forr rating by the Fate Newspaper as extrely dangerous.
Inside the room, he saw several Crossbow Bolts aid at the door's position, each connected to chanisms behind them.
Clearly, with the right operation, these bolts would beco deadly weapons.
"These are all defensive chanisms made by Masier..." Mona's voice sounded. Yu Yuan gave a slight nod.
Following Masier into the basent, Yu Yuan felt like he had entered a chanical world.
This basent had clearly been expanded, with a very large underground area.
Bright lights illuminated the basent completely.
chanical parts, accessories, and tools were everywhere. There were three spaces in total. The largest space was Masier's workshop. On the wall was her tool wall panel, hung with hundreds of various tools.
A table also held many of Masier's creations. Yu Yuan was truly opening his eyes.
Masier led Yu Yuan to a lounge area.
"What would you like to drink?" Masier asked.
"No need, I have things to do. I'll leave after we talk!"
Masier had already guessed he would say this and had no intention of preparing anything.
She also sat down to the side.
"Alright, Sister Mona is here too. Hurry up and talk about the last disaster."
Yu Yuan imdiately recounted the details of the cold wave event carefully.
Mona had clearly heard about this from Masier before and was ntally prepared.
"This matter is very important..." She looked at Masier.
"If this cold wave disaster is really that severe, your place definitely won't withstand that level of extre cold. Pack up and co with when the ti cos!"
"Sister Mona, I knew you were the best! But, go where with you?"
"Johnck Zoo."
Yu Yuan could visibly see Masier's gaze beco vacant.
"Isn't that where the Aurora Animal Assistance Association thugs are? Sister Mona, you..."
"Yes, I am now one of those thugs..." Mona nodded gently.
Masier: ........
Pfft...
Yu Yuan really couldn't hold it in.
Noticing the looks from Masier and Mona, he forcefully suppressed his laughter.
"Following Mona is a good choice. With her covering you, no one should be able to bully you at Johnck Zoo."
Masier remained skeptical of this statent.
"Regardless, you both need to hurry. At most, in sixteen or seventeen days, the super storm cluster will form. You must be prepared before that."
Mona nodded slightly, then inquired.
"You said you had sothing to discuss with . What is it? If it's about the religious secrets behind the ritual, I'm still investigating. This matter seems to involve a lot, and my teacher is also very evasive about it. I need ti."
Yu Yuan nodded, indicating he understood.
"You can proceed with that at your own pace. This ti, I mainly want you to help look at sothing."
"What thing?"
Mona was surprised.
Yu Yuan took out the photo of the ritual circle from his backpack and handed it to Mona.
"This is a ritual array I saw in a room in the southern district. Do you recognize these symbols?"
Taking the photo, Mona looked at it carefully, her brows gradually knitting together.
"These runes of yours seem sowhat ambiguous, and the arrangent of this ritual array also has issues. Are you sure this is a complete photo?"
"I'm sure! At the ti, there was also a small vial of Spirituality Concentrate within the ritual circle."
"Spirituality Concentrate!"
Mona was slightly startled.
"If that's the case, then this ritual array is indeed effective, but..."
Seeing this, Yu Yuan asked the question he had been wondering about for a long ti.
"What exactly is Spirituality Concentrate? Why does it appear in sacrificial rituals?"
"Spirituality Concentrate..." Mona hesitated, looking at Masier.
"Don't even think about sending away!"
Mona sighed.
"Spirituality Concentrate is actually human cerebrospinal fluid!"
What?
Masier's eyes widened.
"Through sacrificial rituals, spirituality from the void of the world can be condensed into the sacrificial offering's body. Finally, this spirituality automatically gathers in the offering's brain, rging into the cerebrospinal fluid. This liquid is then called Spirituality Concentrate."
"And among the many types of sacrificial offerings, only when humans are used as offerings is the quality of the Spirituality Concentrate the highest, with the least impurities. Therefore, sacrificial rituals generally default to humans as the offering."
Hearing this, Yu Yuan imdiately rembered the sacrificial ritual he saw Green Robe performing at the zoo back at the Orleans Hotel.
Indeed, at the very end of the ritual, Green Robe inserted a syringe into the offering's brain and drew out a bit of fluorescent liquid.
Thinking about it now, wasn't that precisely Spirituality Concentrate?
