[This is anti-theft. I'm almost done writing the main text. I haven't been sleeping well for the past two days because the cat has been meowing at night. I'm like a zombie during the day. I don't even know what I'm writing …]
Going downstairs was indeed a wise choice!
Nervousness, excitement, fear … All kinds of mixed emotions burned through her body like fire. The air had never been this thin before, and her heart had never been this fast. The moment Lin Sanjiu's feet touched the ground of the hall on the first floor, before she could see where she should run to, someone pulled her arm forcefully and she fell into a room.
It was the meeting room where the table had been moved out.
Lin Sanjiu had just hidden herself when two angry figures swept through the hall like a storm and rushed out of the door. As the door of the meeting room was wide open, neither of the two duoluozhongs thought to come over to take a look.
Lin Sanjiu didn't even dare to breathe loudly. She hid behind the door for a while and only calmed down when she saw that the two duoluozhongs didn't return. Behind her, Hu Changzai lowered his voice and reprimanded her, "Do you have a death wish? What kind of treasure is that for you to take such a big risk? Huh? "
"I … I don't know …" Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath. She couldn't help but smile, revealing a long and narrow dimple.
There was one thing she didn't say.
From the moment she saw the collar, her "Acute Intuition" sounded like a siren. There was only one thought in her mind: "Take it!"
She took out the [Razor] card. With a thought, an exquisitely crafted metal collar fell from the card.
Even though the card was Lin Sanjiu's ability, it had a physical form after it was created. Hence, the ability of Special Items to fuse in molecular form was still effective on the card. Lin Sanjiu grabbed the collar. The golden-orange glow instantly lit up half of her face, "It's so beautiful!"
Lin Sanjiu didn't know what kind of metal the collar was made of, but it glowed like water. The geometric patterns on the collar were very bold. It was mainly golden-orange with a hint of pink and a hint of watery blue. The colors were bold and imaginative, but it was beautiful.
Lin Sanjiu looked at it admiringly for a while. With a thought, the collar turned into a card in her hand.
[Pygmalion Choker]
Introduction: The name of this collar comes from the famous psychological phenomenon "Pygmalion Effect", also known as "Expectation Effect". Just like how people could be hinted at by others' expectations of them, the person wearing the collar would also be influenced by the thoughts of his companions.
How to use it: After putting it on, buckle the buckle — note, don't force yourself if you have a thick neck — and ask your partner to imagine an ability or feature. The ability or characteristic described verbally by the companion will appear on the owner of the collar.
Note:
1. Only positive fantasies can be realized. For example, "He can fly" was acceptable, but "He will sink when he encounters water" was not acceptable.
2. Each fantasy can only be realized once, and each fantasy lasts for 5 minutes. The collar can be used again after 24 hours.
3. After the fantasy is realized, the strength of the ability will be limited by the master's potential value. For a person with a potential value of 5, even if he could fly, he would only be able to fly 30 centimeters above the ground. Therefore, no matter who it was, it was impossible for them to rule the universe. (Figures are for reference only)
4. Once the collar was put on, it could not be removed. The only way to destroy the collar was to cut off the owner's head. Therefore, please be careful of your head.
5. There is no limit to the method of obtaining companions and making them tell you their fantasy.
Note from the place where it grew: The collar will appear at the location where the team is fighting.
The card was very long. Lin Sanjiu had to dial it twice before she finished reading it. At first, Hu Changzai did not look at the card because he wanted to avoid arousing suspicion. However, after a while, his curiosity got the best of him and he stole a few glances at Lin Sanjiu's card. After Lin Sanjiu finished reading the card and transformed the collar, Hu Changzai urged her incessantly, "Quick, put it on and let me try! I used to love watching superhero movies! "
When he saw such a rare treasure, he naturally thought that it belonged to Lin Sanjiu.
Lin Sanjiu looked at him and smiled. She did not pretend to be polite. After all, she risked her life to obtain this. She couldn't contain her excitement. Her fingers trembled slightly as she put the collar on.
With a click sound, the metal lock was perfectly fastened behind her neck. She touched the cool collar around her neck and smiled at Hu Changzai. "Alright, what kind of ability do you plan on imagining for me now …"
Before he could finish his words, there was a sudden boom, and a gust of wind swept up the splinters and hit the two of them like raindrops. They took a few steps back. When they turned around, they saw that the door of the meeting room had been smashed. After the flying sawdust, they saw the tall figure of one of the duoluozhong.
Its proboscis was longer than a normal duoluozhong's, and it was as hard as a rock. With a wave of its hand, the wooden door and a section of the wall disappeared, leaving behind a large, uneven hole. The duoluozhong's buzzing voice gave Lin Sanjiu goosebumps, "Great, so I was the first to find you."
Lin Sanjiu stared at it and got into a fighting stance.
"Take that thing off your neck, and I will grant you a quick death." Unexpectedly, the duoluozhong did not run away even though it had seen the Pygmalion Choker. Instead, it laughed evilly.
Lin Sanjiu suddenly thought of a possibility.
She had heard from Marcie that when faced with a Special Item, most people would first study the item's hint, such as the Ability Polishing Agent. If there was no hint, they would find a way to activate the item and use it once. That way, they would have a rough idea of its function. However, if they did not dare to use it when they were in danger or couldn't think of a way to use it, they could not even guess the name of the item … No one would think that the Pygmalion Choker could be used on their companion. In other words, the duoluozhong in front of them was completely clueless about its function.
"Hey, Hu Changzai, what was the last superhero movie you watched before the arrival of the new world?" Lin Sanjiu asked casually.
A knowing smile appeared on Hu Changzai's face. He rubbed his glasses that were stained with blood and dust and smiled, "Iron Man."
"Alright, let's give it a try!" Lin Sanjiu's dimples reappeared.
The duoluozhong sensed that something was amiss. It swung its proboscis and was about to pounce on Lin Sanjiu when Lin Sanjiu's fist suddenly glowed with a white light. Then, a tornado-like gust of wind blew toward Lin Sanjiu with a deafening boom.
The duoluozhong didn't even have a chance to attack. Along with the half of the building it was in, it was blasted into smithereens.
The remaining half of the building shook violently as if it was drunk. Bricks, dust, and sawdust rained down from the sky.
