Chapter 148 Flow
Chacha——
The sliding door to the bathroom opened.
Li Qing walked out with an embarrassed look on his face.
He didn't take off his clothes and his body was dry. He just used the shower head to spray the waterproof wall panels.
After hearing Feng Ling's words, he probably realized that he could not hide it any longer and felt quite at a loss.
Feng Ling looked him up and down and said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that..."
Nothing else to say, everything is self-explanatory.
Li Qing felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, and asked with gritted teeth: "What do you want to talk about?"
"Why do you want to use a corpse?" Feng Ling asked him, "Can't you log into the body of a living person?"
Li Qing looked at her cautiously and whispered back, "Because most mazes are in remote places, it would be very inconvenient if the administrator was in human form, so the administrator's login form will give priority to local wild animals."
For example, if the administrator of a maze in a desert is a human, he will be afraid of heat during the day and cold at night, and he will have to solve various problems such as eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. But what if the administrator of the maze is a desert lizard? Many problems will no longer be problems.
The form of wild animals, combined with the card abilities, can basically guarantee the survival rate of these administrators.
Moreover, the role of the administrator is to facilitate players to accept tasks, even if they are of different species and do not speak the same language.
However, the game system did not expect that such a harmless administrator would be hunted down by players.
Li Qing was very afraid that Feng Ling would be angry. He remembered an old saying among humans that the dead are greatest. There was also a crime of insulting a corpse in the law. His behavior might have touched Feng Ling's bottom line.
He added, "My card is a fortune teller. In addition to the ability to tell fortunes, I also have an ability called summoning spirits, which can control corpses through consciousness links. I don't know if this Taoist priest named Li Qing was obsessed with cultivating immortals and jumped off the cliff. During that time, I found that many administrators were abnormally offline, so I wanted to investigate this matter, so I borrowed his body..."
When conducting investigations, it is naturally much more convenient to use human bodies than wild animals.
Feng Ling immediately grasped the key point and asked with narrowed eyes: "When an administrator is abnormally offline, will you receive a message?"
"Yes, we administrators have a dedicated network domain." Li Qing nodded.
"That is to say, every time an administrator dies, you will be the first to know, which is equivalent to knowing when each maze begins to spread pollution." Feng Ling thought thoughtfully, "Then... have you received any news recently?"
"No." Li Qing explained, "A few months ago, a large number of administrators began to go offline abnormally. We initially thought that there was a problem with the system. After submitting the report, the system did not respond. Later, administrators successively sent out death messages saying that they were attacked by players. Only then did we know that it was done by players. Now all the administrators who are still alive have gone into hiding, so we have not received any news about any administrator accidents recently."
Li Qing couldn't help but sigh again after he finished speaking, "But if this continues, problems will arise sooner or later. If the administrator wants to log off normally, he must let the players pass through the maze. If he hides, the players won't be able to find the administrator and won't be able to enter the maze... But if he shows up, he may encounter players who specialize in killing administrators."
So he was really anxious, and he was eager to figure out why the player lost control. Feng Ling stared at his face and asked, "Do you also know the location of each maze?"
Li Qing shook his head. "I don't know. I only know about the mysteries of spreading pollution..."
He paused, suddenly realizing something, and looked up in astonishment, "You want to go?"
"Didn't you say before that players deliberately let the pollution of the maze spread outside in order to earn more points?" Feng Ling said with a smile, "Can I understand that where there is pollution, there are also a lot of alien species? Where there are alien species, there are also a lot of cards. Taoist priest, I really need cards now."
Feng Ling took out the dry and hardened eye from his pocket and handed it to Li Qing.
Li Qing took it suspiciously and looked at it carefully.
Feng Ling said: "Today I encountered an alien species with an eye on its body. I killed the alien species and the eye fell off its body. When I saw it, I had a feeling in my heart... I want this ability. My hive needs this card."
She said it with a firm tone, believing it without a doubt.
Li Qing looked at the eye in his hand, then at Feng Ling, and said hesitantly: "I heard that... some cards, after growing to a certain extent, will produce a state similar to flow with the card holder."
Feng Ling smiled, "Maybe it's the flow you mentioned. Anyway, it's like I suddenly got enlightened. A picture vaguely appears in my mind. The picture is the final evolutionary form of the mother nest."
"But you are already a mature form..." Li Qing couldn't help but want to persuade her, "Feng Ling, you are already very strong."
"You can log off now, why don't you?" Feng Ling tilted his head, still looking at him and smiling, "Of course, you want to save those administrators, you want to fix the game, I can also say that I am trying to save the world, but why don't you admit that we all have our own desires?"
Li Qing was silent for a long time, and whispered: "There are many cards related to eyes, but if there is a card that can parasitize the eyes on another person, I think it should be the Eye of Horus."
"Eye of Horus?" Feng Ling was very interested. "Can you tell me more about it?"
Li Qing looked at her helplessly, not knowing whether what he was doing was right or wrong.
But he didn't seem to have a choice.
Li Qing said: "In ancient Egyptian mythology, there is an eagle-headed god named Horus. He is the god of the sky and the patron saint of the pharaoh. Therefore, the eye of Horus represents the blessing of the gods and the supreme monarchy. The ancient Egyptians believed that this eye could distinguish between good and evil, protect health and happiness, and would use it as an amulet to ward off evil. The card ability also continues in this direction. Players who hold the Eye of Horus can place eye-shaped parasites on other people, know what the other party sees and hears, and provide timely help, so as to achieve the effect of 'amulet'."
Feng Ling listened carefully and asked Li Qing: "Where can I find this player who holds the Eye of Horus?"
“It’s difficult…” Li Qing sighed again, “As far as I know, because this card is very suitable for contact and communication, the person who holds the card was absorbed into the Star Club very early.”
"The Star Club again..." Feng Ling pondered, "It seems that if I want to get this card, I must find a member of the Star Club first."
"It's better not to deal with them." Li Qing's expression showed worry, "The players of the Star Club... are all crazy."
