Volume 2: Scales in the Pond Chapter 290 Pay attention to your physical safety when entering the spiritual realm
The TV series reached a funny plot, and Lin Mengfu habitually went to see Qiao Ji.
Because she was the one who recommended this drama to Qiao Ji, she cared a lot about Qiao Ji's reaction.
But this time when I looked over, I found that Qiao Ji had a laptop on his legs, his body leaning relaxed on the sofa, his head tilted, his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
"Qiao Ji?"
She called out softly, afraid that the sound would be too loud and would wake him up suddenly. It would be best if he woke up naturally.
But Qiao Ji did not respond.
She moved closer, and her mental power couldn't help but shrink back, unwilling to get close to Qiao Ji.
She said softly, "Qiao Ji, if you are sleepy, go back to your room and sleep."
But Qiao Ji still didn't respond.
You can't fall asleep so quickly, did you play games all night long?
She gently pushed Qiao Ji's shoulder, trying to wake him up and go back to his room to sleep.
But when he touched it, the touch was very strange. Qiao Ji's body was like a stone with body temperature, and it did not have the soft touch of normal human skin at all.
Hard.
Why does Qiao Ji's body feel so strange?
With this push, Qiao Ji's body slowly fell to the other side. Although it felt hard to the touch, it was soft when it fell. It was really strange.
"Hello!"
Seeing that Qiao Ji seemed to be about to fall, Lin Mengfu quickly reached out and hugged his neck.
But at this time, the laptop computer placed on Qiao Ji's legs also tilted and slid directly to the ground. If the ultra-thin and light laptop fell to the ground, the nine layers would be broken.
So she jumped forward excitedly, trying to grab the notebook, but unfortunately her hands were not enough and she failed to grab it.
But the laptop was suspended in the air, only four or five centimeters off the ground.
It's telekinesis.
She was so close to Qiao Ji that she almost forgot that she had telekinesis.
Because Qiao Ji's breath was like a furnace, usually when Qiao Ji was close to her, her mental power would shrink inside her body and she would not want to come out.
In the rush just now, she had forgotten about it, but her telekinesis burst out from between her fingers, turning into an invisible hand that grabbed the notebook.
Fortunately, it didn't fall to the ground. Qiao Ji spent so much time writing that materials science text document, and it looked like he had worked very hard on it. He couldn't let it fall to the ground.
"May I ask, what are you doing on top of me?"
When Qiao Ji opened his eyes, he saw a scene that was hard to understand.
Lin Mengfu pressed her whole body on him, and he seemed to be lying down.
Why am I lying down?
Why is she pressing on me?
At this moment, many strange plots emerged in Qiao Ji's mind.
It’s not that he is dirty, but the current posture itself is very problematic, which makes people have strange associations.
It seems that when entering the spiritual realm in the future, I must find a safe place, otherwise I will easily be bullied.
Fortunately, I woke up quickly this time.
Lin Mengfu realized later that her previous move a little indecent, as if she was trying to suffocate Qiao Ji to death.
"Then, then, the notebook fell, and I wanted to grab it, and then in excitement..." Lin Mengfu jumped up excitedly, and quickly shrank to the other side of the sofa, her ears red.
So that's how it is, huh——
Qiao Ji also breathed a sigh of relief.
If there was a 15 or 16-year-old girl who liked him and lived under the same roof, it would be difficult to deal with.
A few years older would be fine.
Snap
Lin Mengfu was so excited that her mental power burst out with force like a broken string, throwing the laptop she was holding away and smashing it against the wall. The screen and keyboard flew off and broke into several pieces of different sizes.
Lin Mengfu: ...
Qiao Ji: ...
The two of them stared at each other, and then Lin Mengfu quickly bowed her head and apologized, "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay, just buy another one."
"But the thing you wrote all night is gone, isn't it?" Lin Mengfu watched Qiao Ji write it, so she felt very sorry.
This is almost like burning other people's homework.
"I saved it. There is a backup on the server, and it won't damage the hard drive if it falls like this."
Qiao Ji beckoned and summoned the remains of the laptop with telekinesis, then took out a part from it and showed it to Lin Mengfu, "Look, the hard drive that stores data is still good, and there's no big problem with the other parts either. The main problem is the screen, so just replace it."
"oh."
She didn't know much about computers, but as Qiao Ji said, the screen was the most obviously damaged, and other parts didn't seem to be a big problem.
"Go to bed early and don't watch TV for too long. I'm going back to my room first."
Qiao Ji took the broken notebook into the room, closed the door, and disappeared from the house.
Lin Mengfu was left alone, curled up on the sofa with her legs hugged and her face buried in her knees. After a long while, she was attracted by the plot of the TV series and raised her head to continue watching.
…
At an altitude of four thousand meters , Qiao Ji used his clairvoyance to scout the place mentioned by the High Priest of Death.
It was a very remote place, a small town on the Mediterranean Sea. Qiao Ji had confirmed it with his clairvoyance and it seemed that all the people there were priests of death, and no ordinary people.
Because every one of them carries the breath of death, which has corroded their skin and is transforming them into another species.
There were more than two hundred of them, with fully automatic weapons, but this was not a threat to Qiao Ji.
The point is, he saw a blood-stained shirt, and the person wearing it was a bald man with a hooked nose, deep eye sockets, and gray-green eyes, and he was talking to the person in front of him in a somewhat flattering manner.
The man was wearing a black cloak with green patterns. His height was very eye-catching. Qiao Ji estimated that he was about two meters sixty. The face under the cloak was a skull with a long snout and protruding fangs. It was probably not a human skull .
Black mist was swirling around the cloaked skeleton. It was the black mist that appeared in Philadelphia last time. It seemed that this was the so-called messenger from the underworld.
Qiao Ji opened the portal and entered the training ground.
"How's the Titan Bomb assembly going?"
"427 have been assembled, and 2,573 remain to be assembled." BT replied.
This efficiency is a bit slow, but considering that there are only more than a hundred shadow soldiers, each person has to assemble, weld parts, perform debugging and inspection, etc., it is indeed a bit too busy.
If you have the chance to harvest souls, recharge the Shadow Soldiers more.
As the saying goes, there is no limit to the number of people above ten thousand.
Let’s set a small goal first and increase the number of shadow soldiers to 10,000.
"Pause the assembly. These bombs are enough. Move them to the open space over there so that I can use them more easily. Also, prepare to make the Soul-Eating Blood Robe."
You can stop assembling the Titan bomb. If you want to go to the underworld next, you should first prepare to make the Soul-Eating Blood Robe. After all, there are many souls there.
