Chapter 272 A One-Year Promise
If the level of trust from the Hunter Association were used to define the difficulty of removing the after-death thoughts at the entrance to the ruins.
Then, at least it has reached level B.
This is Jin's judgment based on his own knowledge.
Hence, before initiating the commission to Moreau, he had made it clear that the risk of getting rid of this death wish was extremely high, and he could accept the result that Moreau chose to retreat after assessing the intensity of the death wish.
I was already mentally prepared for the failure of Morrow's meeting to remove my thoughts, but I didn't expect that the thoughts of death that had troubled him for a long time would be transferred so easily.
Inside the cave.
Morrow and Jin did not speak, and the venue became extremely quiet.
Approximately a few seconds later.
Morrow slowly turned around, looked at the silent Jin, and said solemnly: "The thought of death is so powerful, no wonder it has such an obvious attack posture. Alas, it seems that this time - it will take me a long time to purify it."
He saw it clearly just now.
That strong thought of death was absorbed by Moreau's right hand in just one or two seconds.
This should be Moreau's unique way of eliminating thoughts.
It's just that the process of transferring thoughts of death is too easy, as if there was no risk in the first place.
Even if the subsequent pressure to eliminate thoughts lies more in the difficulty of purification.
But it’s also unreasonable.
"Is there any risk in purification?"
After a brief silence, Jin slowly suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked the most critical question.
He has already seen it.
Morrow’s embarrassment at the beginning and his solemnity at this moment are all just a disguise.
As for why Moreau behaved like this, he could roughly guess, but he didn't take it to heart.
There is only one thing he cares about.
That is whether Moreau can stably and safely purify this thought of death.
This is something more important than money. Morrow felt Jin's attitude towards this matter. He expected that given Jin's human nature, he must have seen the clues and simply gave up his plan to continue acting.
It’s all because of the ridiculous absorption speed of the growth rings.
Not to mention whether it can create a difficult transfer scene, as long as the speed of transferring the death thoughts can be slower, it will not kill his room for performance.
"There is no risk."
The solemn expression on Moreau's face suddenly disappeared, and his tone returned to calm: "Since I can successfully transfer the thought of death, purification is not a problem, it just takes a while."
"That's good."
Jin nodded, and immediately stared at Moreau with bright eyes, as if looking at a super big treasure.
Although the contact time has not been long, he has already seen Moreau’s potential.
At such a young age, he can have such a solid and powerful manifested energy level.
And after seeing how he used "qi", he was able to copy it immediately.
There is no need to say more about this kind of strength and talent.
The most important thing is the ability to eliminate thoughts with a very high upper limit that is currently displayed.
This is also the most lacking ability in his current team.
Hence, after confirming that Moreau could purify his thoughts of death without risk, he came up with the idea of recruiting Moreau.
Not only did he consider the possibility that he might face the same situation in the future, but he also considered the preparations that should be made before exploring the dark continent in the future.
There is no doubt that Moreau’s conditions in all aspects are in line with his desire and demand for talents.
Facing Jin's unabashedly scorching gaze, Moreau said calmly: "About the reward for eliminating Nian"
"How much do you want?"
Jin's eyes narrowed and he asked directly.
Morrow hesitated after hearing this, thinking that the bidding price of the two pairs of flaming eyes was nearly 10 billion. If he wanted to bid, it had better not be less than 10 billion.
It's just that the price is just based on the difficulty of eliminating Nian, which is to treat Jin as a big grievance.
But look at it from another perspective.
The reason why the difficulty of eradicating thoughts is so low is not because the intensity of the desire to die is too low, but because of his annual rings—well, his ability to eradicate thoughts is too strong.
So even if you ask a high price, there will be no problem.
Furthermore, he now owes Kang Zai more than 10 billion. If he makes a concession here, he will owe even more.
Thinking of this, Moreau made a tentative offer: "Ten billion."
"Okay."

Jin agreed without even thinking about it. He smiled and said: "The price of the flaming eyes and kitchen knives bid at Youkesin Auction some time ago was just over 10 billion, so why not just pay it."
In fact, the total bidding price of the two pairs of flaming eyes and kitchen knives has exceeded 11 billion.
So to offset this, the government will have to spend about 1 billion more.
Seeing Jin so bold and forthright, Moreau was speechless for a moment.
Is it going to be less? ?
By the way, this guy is extremely rich -.—
Damn it, it really is less.
Morrow regretted deeply in his heart.
But the matter has come to this, and he can only accept it.
Jin didn’t know what Moreau was thinking. In fact, taking the market price of Chu Nian as a reference, the remuneration of 10 billion was already a sky-high price.
That is, he is not short of money and is willing to pay a high price for such things as eradication of thoughts.
Just like he thinks that the expenditure of money is far less than the safety of Moreau when he eliminates his thoughts.
If he could get what he wanted to enter this suspected Akashal period ruins, he would be willing to spend more money.
Temporarily suppressing the idea of recruiting Moreau, after discussing the price, Jin quickly came to the round stone door that looked like a Tai Chi pattern.
The stone door is carved with complex patterns of rare and exotic animals. On both sides of the wavy door gap in the center, there are two black and white stone beads as round as jade, arranged symmetrically like chess pieces on a chessboard.
At this moment, just gently pushing open this stone door can satisfy the curiosity that I have always had.
But Jin just reached out and touched the jade door handle, feeling the warm touch with his fingertips, and did not push it away in a hurry.
Because the joy of opening the entrance to the ruins should not be enjoyed by him alone, but should be experienced with his companions who have worked together for a long time.
Jin retracted his hand and walked out of the cave, preparing to use the communication equipment at the entrance of the cave to ask the colleagues in charge of the excavation work to come down "Moro."
On the way to the entrance of the cave, Jin suddenly spoke.
Morrow followed and looked at Jin's back.
Jin looked forward and solemnly issued an invitation: "I would like to ask you to serve as the consultant for my team's anti-Nian dynasty. Are you willing?"
"..."
Morrow confirmed slightly, but did not give a reply immediately, but began to think about it.
He is very short of money now and knows that Jin is a top rich man.
So if you agree to Jin's invitation, you will not only have the opportunity to get the energy of the annual rings for free, but you can also make a lot of money.
But·
Compared with monetary gains, he wanted to get from Jin the possibility of evolving "Starlight Condensation |".
But this also means that while proposing the "conditions", the entire ability system of Starlight Condensation must also be revealed to Jin Zhizhi.
In response to this point, Moreau did not hesitate for too long.
This is the advantage of being a time traveler. You can read and confirm the personality attributes of the original characters from the perspective of a reader of the original work.
"I can agree to your invitation, but I have a condition."
After thinking clearly, Moreau spoke calmly.
Jin Jiaoran stopped, looked back at Moreau, and asked seriously: "Tell me about it."
"Be my "sparring partner" and help me improve and optimize my telekinesis ability."
Moreau stated the conditions.
Jin heard this, raised his hand to his chin, and groaned.
The moment he heard this condition, his first reaction was to refuse.
Just listening to the talk of improvement and optimization, you should know that the so-called sparring may take a particularly long period of time.
It may even be based on one year per year.
Jin was very resistant to this point alone.
He is unwilling to be bound by one thing for too long.
Had he not attached great importance to Moreau's talent and potential, he would have rejected it outright.
"The ability you want to improve and optimize is the one you just used underwater?"
Jin curiously asked.
Morrow nodded.
Jin became a little interested when he saw this.
With his eyes lowered, he just thought about it carefully and immediately grasped the key information.
"Can your ability copy or synchronize the skills of others?"
Jin raised his eyes, and without waiting for Moreau's reply, he immediately added: "You don't have to answer. To be honest, I really need your ability to eliminate thoughts - so I am more inclined to agree to your conditions."
"It's okay. , my ability is called Star Convergence, and its effect is to read and integrate the information of the target's actions, so as to predict the attack intention."
Moro did not hide anything, and simply explained: "Because the ability to read information does have the effect of copying other people's skills, I have used it to quickly master footwork and martial arts."
「Huh?」
Jin didn’t expect Moreau to tell him his ability information so calmly. While he was surprised by this, he couldn’t help but feel emotional about Moreau’s trust in him.
At the same time, he was keenly aware of the problem in Moreau's words.
"In this case, why do we need to improve and optimize it?"
"Because the Starlight Convergence can only read the target's force-generating skills and other information, and I want it to evolve so that it can even read the skill information of "Qi". 》
Morrow still expressed his intention without any concealment.
He believed that if he wanted Jin to agree to this condition and cooperate with him without sparing any effort, he could not hide anything about this kind of thing.
Jin's eyes changed slightly, and in just a few words, he intuitively felt Moreau's ambition.
The ability to quickly master footwork and martial arts by reading information such as force generation techniques is already very valuable.
So based on the effect of this ability alone, and using him as a long-term training partner, he believed that Moreau could use this opportunity to master more advanced physical skills. However, Moreau was not satisfied with this.
But he took a fancy to his advanced control skills of "Nian Qi".
"Okay, I agree."
Jin thought for a moment, and finally agreed to Moreau's conditions.
Strength, conduct, character, talent, and the ability to eliminate thoughts.
Given these factors, he didn't mind helping Moro climb to higher mountains.
More importantly, he hopes to use this opportunity to let Moreau become a member of his Dark Continent exploration team in the future.
Morrow looked happy when he saw Jin agreed.
But the next second I heard Jin’s next words.
"But I also have a condition."
"You say."
The joy on Moreau's face dimmed, and he looked at Jin seriously.
As long as he can get this opportunity, no matter what the conditions are, as long as he can do it, there is no possibility of refusing.
Jin extended an index finger and said slowly: "I only give you 'one year'. "
After all, you don’t need to think about it to know that it is extremely difficult to make the already powerful Starlight Convergence go further.
Even he felt that the success rate of this kind of thing was quite low.
So he must set a deadline, otherwise if Moreau fails to improve successfully, then he will have to keep sparring.
"No problem."
Morrow agreed to Jin's conditions without hesitation.
He was already very satisfied with being able to get this opportunity, and how could he dare to expect more.
Seeing Moreau agreeing so decisively, Jin was slightly surprised, but he didn’t think much and stretched out his hand towards Moreau.
"Then it's settled."
"Hmm."
Morrow held Jin's hand, a smile appeared on his face.
Jin took back his hand and thought about the follow-up excavation of the ruins, and said: "By the way, the sparring will have to wait until my colleagues and I finish excavating the ruins. Is that okay?"
"Of course, I can wait, as long as it takes."
Morrow smiled and looked at the annual energy circle on the back of his hand from the corner of his eye.
I just absorbed the thoughts of death attached to the entrance of the ruins, and converted a total of 20% of the energy, directly rising from 42% to 62%, which is very amazing.
He judged that the scope of this death wish should not be limited to the entrance of the ruins, but radiated to every corner of the periphery of the ruins.
Otherwise, with Jin’s strength and the level of the team he has built, there is no need to enter through the entrance to the ruins.
Seeing that there is still about 38% energy left to fill the third growth ring, Moro thought about the situation in the ruins.
This is the first time he has been exposed to this kind of excavation work. He wonders if there are any objects attached to the thoughts of death in the ruins.
Suppressing this question, Moreau and Jin came outside the cave.
After Jin used the communication equipment to inform the staff above about the situation, Moreau asked aloud: "Jin, is it possible that death thoughts appear in the ruins?"
If it is the kind of person who is buried under the control of the thought of death, it can be solved without removing the thought of death. 》
Having said this, Jin glanced at Moreau.
"In short, even if there are thoughts of death in the ruins, you will not be asked to take action again. Your first priority is to purify the transferred thoughts of death first."
"Yeah, okay."
Morro responded.
Strictly speaking, he has actually digested the thought of death.
However, what Jin said reminded him.
Even if there are some objects attached to the afterlife in the ruins, he cannot absorb them immediately.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he is still in the stage of "purifying thoughts of death."
"Then let's wait for a while, the sparring matter will have to wait anyway."
Hence Morrow thought to himself, he was also looking forward to the excavation of the ruins in the future.
If you can find objects attached to the thoughts of death, you will make a lot of money.
