Chapter 274 Hisoka is in a hurry again
The thought of death at the entrance to the ruins, although it has an offensive attitude of keeping away from strangers, is essentially defensive.
Like this kind of after-death thoughts that exert more of a "solid effect", no matter how strong and powerful the aura is, it usually does not pose a substantial threat to those with the ability to read.
In contrast, at this moment, the thought of death suddenly emerged from the living dead and immediately attacked Moreau and Jin.
In terms of intensity and quantity of death energy, although it is far inferior to the death wish at the entrance to the ruins, it still possesses an extremely strong desire to attack.
· Coupled with the strange and unknown phenomenon of the living dead hanging on the top of the underground palace, no one can be sure whether this aggressive thought after death hides some special ability mechanism.
You must know that this ruins has a history of at least more than a thousand years.
This means that those people on the top of the underground palace have actually lived for thousands of years.
Considering these potential risks, Moreau still took the initiative to absorb this thought after death.
Jin anticipated that Moreau would have thoughts of death at the entrance to the ruins before he had purified it, so when the thoughts of death struck, his first reaction was to help Moreau block it.
But he didn’t expect that Moreau still had the energy to transfer this thought of death into his body.
Jin looked at Moreau's back, a strange color flashed across his eyes, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Morrow did not answer, his whole person was frozen in place like a sculpture.
Because·
His head at this time was forced into a huge amount of vague memory images.
These memory scenes are like the emotional carrier of thoughts after death, carrying an extreme resentment and venting an attack on Moreau's head.
Jin noticed something strange about Moreau, his face changed slightly, and he ducked in front of Moreau.
Immediately, I saw Morrow closing his eyes tightly, his brows deeply furrowed, fine cold sweat oozing out from his surroundings, and the thought energy lingering on his body showing extremely unstable fluctuations.
"It's definitely still "overloaded"". "
Jin looked at Moreau worriedly.
In this situation, it was difficult for him to intervene and could only wait and see for the time being.
But after two or three seconds,
Morrow Xiuran opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and then his eyes showed doubts.
Just now, countless blurry images rushed into my head, but they quickly disappeared into thin air, as if they had never appeared.
This is the first time that Moreau has encountered such a situation.
Based on his understanding of thoughts after death, although not all thoughts after death will be accompanied by memory information, but thoughts after death of this level, even if they carry memories of life, should not be that many normally.
It should be more sparse and scattered.
But the amount of information at that moment was like an extremely detailed revolving door of someone's life.
Although vague, the number is staggering.
This is exactly what Moreau is confused about.
"Morrow, how are you?"
Seeing Moreau's rapid recovery, Jin asked with concern again.
"It's nothing serious."
Morrow raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said calmly: "It's just that a lot of memory information was stuffed into his head, but the memory information dissipated quickly and had little impact."
In fact, all the memory information he received after removing the powerful thought of death will be accepted by his consciousness.
But he can seal up these memory information, so normally, as long as his will is strong enough, it will basically not affect him.
But this experience was very strange, allowing him to vaguely glimpse some details of the scene above him.
To be precise, it is one of the constraints."
Morrow did not hide it, and took the initiative to explain: "There is another restriction, which is that my ability can only remove the thoughts of death."
The annual rings can only absorb the thoughts of death.
This is a good time to explain, so as not to have to find him later to get rid of the thought of life.
"That's it."
Jin nodded thoughtfully. No wonder the process of transferring thoughts after death was so easy.
However, judging from the situation when Moreau transferred the death thoughts, he quickly realized the difference between the death thoughts at the entrance to the ruins and the death thoughts of these human bodies.
But it was inconvenient for him to ask more questions.
After all, in the field of mind-killing masters, there has always been an unspoken rule not to reveal the mind-killing process to outsiders, let alone the underlying logic and operating mechanism of the mind-killing ability.
To be honest, Morrow's willingness to reveal this information to him has subverted his understanding of the traditional practices of mind-killers.
Including being able to reveal the details of his abilities without hesitation in order to let him serve as a sparring partner.
These signs undoubtedly showed Moreau's trust in him.
Humographically, from his previous observations, he thought that Moreau was thoughtful and not the type who would easily trust others.
Thinking of this, Jin felt that nothing he could say could betray Moreau's trust, and he would have to do his best in the subsequent sparring plan.
As for Moreau's character, he has already made a conclusion.
If nothing else, gaining the trust of people like Kurapika and Menchi is enough to prove Moro's character.
If your judgment is wrong, you can only blame yourself for being wrong.
Morrow didn't know that Jin could think of so many things in just one breath. He raised his head and stared at the many living dead on the top,
Thinking about the huge amount of fuzzy memory information just now.
In his opinion, when absorbing these thoughts after death, no matter how much memory information the consciousness will receive, as long as the memory information will disappear on its own, there will be no resistance or influence.
So, it is only a matter of time to capture the energy of these annual rings.
Morrow was not in a hurry, but thought of the additional value of these things.
His starlight convergence can accurately read target information, but as long as the number of targets within the scope of his ability increases, the huge amount of action information that comes with it will put a huge burden on the brain's operation.
This is the oath and restriction of ability, and there is no room for adjustment.
However, ability users can usually go through specific training methods to overcome or further utilize the effects of constraints.
However, due to the special nature of Starlight Condensation, it is more directly benchmarked against the brain’s information processing capabilities, making it difficult to find targeted training methods.
But the experience just now made Moreau aware of a possibility.
The ferocious impact of those vague memory information, although painful, will end after a few seconds.
As long as there is no risk, it seems that this can be used to exercise the brain's tolerance for reading and receiving information.
If you can repeatedly experience similar stimuli, you may be able to gradually improve your ability to adapt to this kind of information overload.
In the end, even if the weakness of Starlight Condensation cannot be completely overcome, it can at least be improved.
Morrow was thinking about the feasibility of this idea, and he couldn't help but become curious about the thought after death.
How is such a huge amount of fuzzy memory information formed?
Is it really related to Pappu, the nurturing animal?
Based on his understanding of Pappu's ability, this creature should absorb life energy by dominating humans, but at the same time, it will also give the dominated people illusory dreams as compensation.
Just like the memories produced when humans dream.
Even if the dream is false, as long as the person remembers it, it will become a part of the memory.
If Papu constantly weaves beautiful dreams for humans when controlling them, and the controlled person stores these dreams as real memories -
Theoretically, a large amount of memory information will be formed.
The human bodies on the roof of the underground palace still have weak signs of life, and it is no problem to say that they have lived for more than a thousand years.
Assuming that the plant roots wrapped around the human head have abilities similar to those of the nurturing beast Pap, then it is indeed possible to create a large number of false memories during this long period of time.
As for why the thought of death arises.
Could it be that he was awakened from a thousand-year dream?
And because the strength of the thought of death is too weak, the large amount of memory information carried becomes blurred,
and lasts only a few seconds.
It can only be said that this is a possibility.
Morrow finished his thinking and noticed Jin looking at him curiously.
Seeing Moreau come back to his senses, Jin asked curiously: "What were you thinking about just now? You were so absorbed in your thoughts that you didn't even respond when I called you."
"I was thinking about the massive amount of memory information carried by the after-death thought."
Moreau raised his head and rested his chin, explaining: "Under normal circumstances, such a weak after-death thought should not have such a phenomenon, so I speculated that those plant root-like things may have hallucinogenic properties, or——."
Morrow paused at this point.
“Or?”
Jin asked with great interest.
Moreau said calmly: "Or has the ability to be similar to the nurturing animal Pap."
"Is happiness and life equivalent exchange?"
As he spoke, his eyes turned to the palace filled with thoughts of death, "Although the manifestation of the ability phenomenon is different from that of the education beast Papu, as you said, these roots may indeed have similar ability essences."
Jin did not speak anymore, but thought for a moment, and suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Moreau: "Are you sure it will be completely eliminated?"
There was a rare seriousness in his tone.
Whether it is the unknown after-death thoughts in the palace, or the large number of post-death thoughts that may be spawned by the human bodies above, it is a potential threat to the team's excavation work, and even to human society.
So rather than figuring out the details of these power phenomena, Jin is more concerned about whether he can completely eliminate potential threats.
"It's no problem at all, just give me some time."
Faced with Jin's inquiry, Moreau gave an affirmative answer.
Jin smiled when he saw this.
“It’s so reliable.”
He said with a slight sigh.
Because of the appearance of plant roots and a large number of living dead, the excavation of the ruins had to be temporarily put on hold.
However, the excavation team can first conduct preliminary research on the circular stone door at the entrance to the ruins and the main passage leading to the underground palace, which somewhat eases the team's eagerness.
Taking advantage of this gap, Morrow returned to the ground and explained his decision to stay in the excavation team to Menchi and Kurapika.
He did not hide anything and directly told Jin that he had agreed to conduct special training.
Knowing that Moro stayed to practice, Kurapika thought for a moment and made a decision: "In that case, I also want to stay."
"Are you sure?"
Moro looked at Kurapika. In fact, he didn't even need to ask, he could already see the determination in Kurapika's eyes.
There is no doubt that Kurapika gave an affirmative answer.
Morrow nodded slightly and said: "Then stay and help, but there is one thing. If Jin proposes to pay you,
You must refuse directly."
"I never thought about such a thing."
Kurapika shook his head.
He chose to stay, mostly because he wanted to take this opportunity to practice and become stronger with Moreau.
Morrow smiled meaningfully: "That's not what I meant."
"Hmm?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Kurapika's eyes.
Moro pointed out something: "Don't underestimate the information channels held by the world's five major telepathic people."
Kurapika is so smart that he immediately realized what Moro meant.
This is to ask him to make good use of this opportunity, and then use Jin's intelligence channels to investigate the whereabouts of the eyes of his compatriots.
Thinking of this, Kurapika was actually looking forward to it.
Seeing that Kurapika decided to stay in Jin's team, Menqi was hesitant.
But her hesitation quickly disappeared.
Because after Jin knew that she was a food hunter, he used his financial resources and connections to directly bring in a lot of rare ingredients and wanted Menqi to cook a banquet to celebrate the opening of the entrance to the ruins.
And Moro took this opportunity to suggest that Menqi make these ingredients into medicinal cuisine.
On the one hand, it can bring out the value of rare ingredients, and on the other hand, it will let Jin know that Menqi understands medicated cuisine.
After knowing this, Yijin considered the difficulty of the excavation work, so he extended an invitation to Menqi.
Menqi finally agreed, considering that Jin could get rare ingredients at any time.
As for Moreau, who personally facilitated this matter, he was already snickering in the corner.
After all, medicated dietary dishes used to enhance physical fitness are too expensive.
Can you be unhappy now that you can get it for free for a long time?
As the matter settled, Moro, Kurapika, and Menchi became members of the excavation team.
A few days later, Moreau officially began to clean up the living dead on the roof of the underground palace.
Perhaps just like his initial speculation, the millennium dreams of these living dead were shattered, and they all left their thoughts after death one after another.
Although the annual energy provided by each thought of death is quite small, for him, it can be used as an adaptive training for the gathering of stars.
Moreover, he counted the number of living dead. If all of them left their thoughts after death, they could bring at least about 10% of the energy of the annual rings.
The only drawback is that it is quite painful for the brain to receive the huge torrent of memories.
Time passes slowly.
The end of December.
A man named Hisoka signed up for the hunter test.
As for the reason, a man named Moreau lost contact.
Hisoka couldn't find Moreau and was in a hurry again.
Later I remembered that Moreau had mentioned getting a hunter's license.
Hiso, who was anxious and hungry, wanted to try his luck at the hunter test.
