Embers Ad Infinitum

Jiang Baimian felt doubly helpless, but it did not affect his state. He just sighed slightly.

Her mind has been tempered enough to be tough.

"You can put this paper away and go back for further research." She turned to Gnawa.

After speaking, she lowered her head and looked at her watch:

"Time is running out, we have to hurry up."

What she meant was that she had to check as soon as possible whether any of the few items in the room were worth the risk.

Gnawa did not waste any time. He shook the thin quilt, knocked on the pillow, and lifted the mattress, but found nothing else.

During this process, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao were trying their best to sense and failed to detect any abnormal changes.

When Gennava put away the paper and stretched out his silver-black metal palm towards the little night pearl that emitted yellow-green light, Shang Jianyao suddenly said:

"It's moving, it's moving, the baby is moving."

"..." Jiang Baimian found that his mind was still not strong enough.

She couldn't help but sigh secretly:

The "Life Sacrifice" cult was indeed the first religious organization that Shang Jianyao joined, and it left a distinct mark on him.

Of course, Jiang Baimian also knew why Shang Jianyao said this - as soon as Gnawa's finger touched the fish-eye-sized luminous pearl, the object's yellow-green light flashed faintly, which was easy to ignore, and , there are extremely difficult-to-detect bioelectrical signals inside.

Shang Jianyao continued:

“There is a very weak floating level of human consciousness.

"It's gone now."

Is this the product of the combination of the auras left by those powerful men who explored the depths of the "soul corridor" and real objects? This may come from Yan Hu himself, or it may stem from what he gained in a certain room in the "Soul Corridor"... Jiang Baimian always kept the time in mind and said nothing more:

"Put it away first and study it when you go back. It's time for us to go out."

Gennava took out the rubber gloves he had prepared a long time ago, stuffed the yellow-green luminous pearl in front of him, and wrapped it up.

Then, the three people quickly and smoothly exited the room and turned off the flashlight.

After Gnawa pushed the coffin back to its original position and blocked the entrance to the basement, Shang Jianyao lifted the lid of the coffin again and closed it tightly.

"I don't think Yan Hu likes what you do." Jiang Baimian counted the time and watched Shang Jianyao busy.

Shang Jianyao raised his hands slightly, raised his body halfway, looked into the void and said:

"Everything is a fantasy, why take it seriously?"

Jiang Baimian wanted to reply to him a few words, but time did not permit, so he could only take the lead and exit the temple called "Yam Luo Temple".

…………

In the hotel camp, in a room with dim light bulbs.

All the members of the "Old Tune Group" gathered around the coffee table that served as a dining table, looking at the yellow-green luminous pearl.

"We have to try what effect this can have." Jiang Baimian broke the silence and said.

Her eyes turned to Gennava.

——After dinner, they had studied the piece of paper and found nothing special about it.

Gennava stretched out his silver-black metal palm, picked up the fish-eye-sized luminous pearl, and turned it back and forth a few times:

"how to use?"

When he picked up the Night Pearl, Jiang Baimian sensed the fleeting weak electrical signal again, but except for this, there was nothing.

"Try to concentrate..." Jiang Baimian closed his mouth before he finished speaking.

You can think with your toes that there is no such thing as a spirit in intelligent robots, and it is still unknown whether humans have it!

She considered it for a few seconds and said:

"Stimulate it with electric current?"

She did it as soon as she thought of it, and she immediately said to Gnawa:

"Take it, I'll give it a try."

Long Yuehong subconsciously shrank back, trying to distance herself.

But after looking at Bai Chen and Shang Jianyao who were motionless, he felt that his performance was too timid, so he forcibly restored his original posture.

Looking at the yellow-green luminous pearl held in Gnawa's palm, Jiang Baimian raised his left hand and pressed it.

A silver-white electric arc suddenly jumped out, spanned a short distance, and struck the target surface.

The yellow-green light emitted by the night pearl oscillated obviously, and the weak electrical signal hidden inside it surfaced again and became messy.

But everything quickly returned to its original state, and nothing happened.

"It doesn't work..." Long Yuehong said whether he was relieved or disappointed.

He didn't feel that he was affected by any ability.

Jiang Baimian nodded slightly and pondered a new plan.

At this time, Shang Jianyao said:

"Let me give it a try."

Jiang Baimian pondered briefly and said:

"Be careful. Well, put on your gloves first."

She immediately said to Gnawa:

"Just keep an eye on him. If anything goes wrong, force him and Ye Mingzhu to separate."

"No! We are true love!" Shang Jianyao responded in a tone that made it difficult for others to tell whether he was joking or not.

He then picked up a latex glove and put it on his left palm.

Then, he stretched out his hand and pinched the yellow-green luminous pearl in Gnawa's palm.

Just like before, Jiang Baimian sensed the weak electrical signal flashing away.

Shang Jianyao looked at the luminous pearl in his hand and talked to it seriously:

"You should have heard of a word called 'a pearl covered in dust'. As a pearl at night, you have stayed in the basement for decades with no one to appreciate or praise you. Don't you feel lonely?

"Now, you have the opportunity to bloom your own brilliance..."

Listening to Shang Jianyao's chatter, Long Yuehong was both amused and scared.

What's funny is that this guy really seems to think he can communicate with a luminous pearl. What's scary is that this guy really seems to be able to communicate with a luminous pearl successfully.

Bai Chen, who had been watching quietly, was also shocked by Shang Jianyao's operation this time, which reminded her of the mentally disturbed wilderness wanderers she had encountered before.

Of course, there is no essential difference between Shang Jianyao and them, they just have an extra doctor's certificate.

After communicating for more than a minute, Shang Jianyao sighed helplessly:

"It refused to speak."

It couldn't speak... As soon as Jiang Baimian finished his defamation, he saw Shang Jianyao handing the yellow-green luminous pearl to his right hand.

That was without latex gloves.

Jiang Baimian opened his mouth, but in the end did not stop him. He just used his eyes to signal Gennava to get ready.

It took Gennava more than two seconds to analyze what this look meant.

Shang Jianyao held the yellow-green luminous pearl in his right hand, and his dark brown eyes suddenly became dark.

The next second, Jiang Baimian sensed the emergence of the weak electrical signal in the Night Pearl. It spread and grew and became very complicated, as if it was receiving the arrival of a certain thought.

Long Yue stood up with a blush, rushed out of the room tremblingly, rushed back to the next door, lay down on the bed, wrapped the quilt tightly, and curled up.

"This..." When Jiang Baimian saw this scene, he was a little confused at first, and then he understood.

That luminous pearl worked!

Shang Jianyao lowered his head slightly, looked at the night pearl in his palm, and said with a smile:

“It seems that if you make others become cowards, you should call them ‘cowards’.

"It can only target one person, or it can cover all humans within a range, but the effect will be much worse."

Jiang Baimian's eyes lit up when he heard this:

"This ability is very strong, and it is very suitable for this operation."

The most feared thing in "Operation Beheading" is to be intercepted midway or not find the right owner. With this luminous pearl, as long as he can strike first, the defense around Dimarco will be ineffective, and even he himself will be affected.

Shang Jianyao continued:

"The maximum distance is about 120 meters. Now it can affect the other side of the camp and the Hongshiji underground shopping mall."

"Well, this is certainly incomparable to the real 'Soul Corridor' powerhouses, but it should be able to affect them." Jiang Baimian made an inference based on the current situation.

At this time, she keenly discovered a problem:

"Has the light of the Night Pearl dimmed a little?"

"Yes." Gennava compared the two sets of data before and after. Reply in the affirmative.

Shang Jianyao nodded:

"It's just like eating candy. If you use it once, it will be a little less, and there is no way to recover. It can also make all the power burst out instantly, and the effect will be stronger."

While they were discussing, Long Yuehong, who was next door, finally woke up, got out of bed in frustration, and walked back here.

Jiang Baimian glanced at him and said with a smile:

"It's not bad. I can recover so quickly after being affected by such a 'soul corridor' level item."

"I'm not so timid that I have incontinence." Bai Chen added.

She originally wanted to use the term "peeing her pants", but found that it meant exposing Long Yue's red scar, so she changed it to a more literal term.

Long Yuehong's heart suddenly felt greatly comforted. He sat down and asked about the abilities and characteristics of the luminous pearl.

When Jiang Baimian finished speaking, he looked at Shang Jianyao's right hand curiously:

"Can ordinary people like us who are not awakened people also use it?"

"Practice brings true knowledge." Shang Jianyao laughed.

Long Yuehong thought about her timid side before, so she mustered up her courage and said:

"Then let me try."

Shang Jianyao immediately handed over the yellow-green luminous pearl.

Jiang Baimian also wanted to know the answer to this question and hurriedly said to Gnawa:

"Be prepared for the unexpected."

"No problem." Gnawa locked Long Yuehong's eyes with blue light.

Long Yuehong took the luminous pearl and felt that it was not as cold as expected, but closer to human body temperature.

He tried to concentrate and gather his energy, but he tried many methods but failed to stimulate the "cowardly" effect.

"It doesn't seem possible..." Finally, he shook his head in disappointment.

At this moment, the wind blew through the hotel camp, bringing a whining sound.

Long Yuehong's ears twitched, her body trembled, and she suddenly dropped Ye Mingzhu and hid behind the sofa, behind Bai Chen and Jiang Baimian.

After a few seconds, he breathed out and stood up.

Jian Shang and Jian Yao looked at him at the same time, and Long Yuehong's face turned red instantly:

"I, I don't know what happened. I was suddenly scared just now and felt that there was something wrong with the wind..."

Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully:

"Not only can non-awakened people not be able to use this 'magical item', but they will also be slightly affected by it."
