After sending away the listeners, Fatso walked to the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror.
The person I saw tonight, is that Da Bai?
Did he become an advanced listener?
How can he be so fast?
Fatso couldn't understand. There was even some jealousy in it. In order to advance to an advanced listener, he did not hesitate to swallow the delicious poison of karma, but why is Da Bai faster than him?
This is impossible!
Jealousy was human nature, but just as Fatty had said to that person before, if it was true, then he would have to drink one more can of beer tonight. From another point of view, if Da Bai was now a high-level listener, even if Fatty didn't know why Da Bai had turned a blind eye to him, Fatty would feel gratified and happy for Da Bai.
He reached out and splashed the water on his face. Fatso rubbed his fat face.
"Don't you feel that I'm very positive now? Hmm? You said you can sense the imbalance in my heart? Nonsense, I'll be damned if I can balance it.
However, to become an Advanced Listener in just three months, when did Mental Illness become an Innate Skill? "
Fatso walked out of the bathroom and picked up an unfinished can of beer. He took another sip, picked up two peanuts, threw them into his mouth, and chewed slowly.
"He entered the elevator on the second floor, which means he lives on the second floor."
"You're asking me why I didn't look for him? Damn, I did that in the past. With his temper, he can completely ignore me. If I look for him now, won't I be looking for trouble? "
Fatso was still talking to himself.
But soon, Fatso's eyes suddenly narrowed. "F * ck, no, no, something is wrong!"
Fatty muttered to himself as he quickly pulled his bag over and shook out all the documents inside. Among them were the information that had been posted to attract listeners to the forum, as well as the information that Fatty had personally come up with during his field trips.
"Something's wrong, something's definitely wrong …"
…
"Sun Hai, are you sure you can continue to suppress your realm?"
In another room, there were two people sitting. One was a tall and thin man, sitting on the bed, and the other was a slightly younger man, sitting on a chair.
The tall and thin man was wearing casual clothes and looked very ordinary. He had dark skin, a bit like a Guangzhou native. The young man had a sharp face, and his temperament gave people a sense of sharpness.
In the eyes of ordinary people, listeners were comparable to gods. In the eyes of listeners with lower strength, they were also extremely mysterious. But in fact, just like Su Bai, Fatso, and the other three lived under the same roof. In fact, most of the time in the real world, their lifestyle and state were really not much different from ordinary people.
"For the time being, I can suppress it." The young man named Sun Hai smiled, as if he did not care much about his realm, but in fact, it was very difficult for him to suppress his realm.
"It's been hard on you. Other people are diligently trying to cross over from the veteran level to the high-level listener level, but you're deliberately suppressing your level. If those listeners who are stuck at the high-level veteran level know about this, they'll probably be mentally unbalanced."
"Liu Tao, don't laugh at me. It's not like you don't know what situation I'm in. If I don't suppress my realm now, it's very likely that my soul will directly collapse. I can't control my own strength at all."
The tall and thin man was called Liu Tao. Listeners who frequented the listener forum should be very familiar with him. This was because he was the forum administrator, and he often came to post special information and forum tasks. He was one of the more active administrators. Sun Hai was also one of the founders of the forum, but it was only a title, and he did not care about the forum's affairs.
"You're too greedy. In the previous story world, if you weren't so greedy, you could've directly absorbed the souls that have been buried here for thousands of years in the castle into your own soul, and there wouldn't be today's trouble."
Liu Tao looked a little helpless. He took out a cigarette and lit it. When he blew out a ring of smoke, the corner of his mouth slightly pulled up into an imperceptible arc. Obviously, his true thoughts were not like this. They were both low-level listeners who founded the forum together, and now he was just an ordinary veteran. However, a friend who was at the same starting line back then could actually be promoted to a senior listener. From now on, the status of the two would be as wide as a chasm.
Fortunately, his advancement meant death. Thinking about it this way, Liu Tao felt a little better.
"Who can resist in the face of that kind of temptation?" In fact, Sun Hai did not notice the subtle changes in Liu Tao's expression. On the one hand, Liu Tao did not make it obvious, and on the other hand, Sun Hai himself was actually a little complacent. Even if it was very likely that he would die when he was promoted to a senior listener, he was after all the person in the known circle who was closest to a senior listener. It was inevitable that his mentality would be floated.
In the previous story world, the souls around the castle swarmed in, and the ghost king was killed by everyone. When the ghosts were without a master, Sun Hai used his dark magic ability to start refining and devouring the souls to improve his soul level. However, the pleasure brought about by this rapid improvement made Sun Hai lose himself. He did not stop at all, and he did not control himself at all.
This situation was very similar to the Western listener Su Bai encountered in the previous "nuclear explosion" story world. The only difference was that the Western listener forcibly stacked himself to the position of a senior listener in an extremely dangerous way by fusing with his doppelganger. Regardless of whether his foundation was solid or not, and regardless of whether he had any hidden dangers, at that time, he did exude the aura of a senior listener.
This was the situation Sun Hai was in now. He could temporarily suppress the resentment of the souls in his soul, but once he was promoted to a senior listener, all restraints and suppression would no longer exist. Then, his soul was likely to explode!
"In short, I'll say this first. Mr. Lei has already said that this node will directly explode if a senior listener enters it. I know what your plan is, but you have to wait until we arrange for someone to go in and explore before you are allowed to enter this node."
"I know this." Sun Hai smiled, stood up, and reached out to pat Liu Tao on the shoulder. "I still know this. You didn't tell me the specific location of the node, did you?"
"Last time, someone couldn't control himself in the face of the ownerless souls around him. I don't believe he can control himself now. Even if you want to use this node to promote to a senior listener and release your unstable soul power through the opportunity of the node exploding and sorting out by a senior listener, you have to wait for us to finish what we have to do."
"Okay, I know. I know the importance of a spiritual artifact that may have the ability to interfere with time and space to the forum."
"Well, I'll go find Mr. Lei to ask some more questions. I'll bring supper back later."
"Okay."
The two parted happily. Sun Hai stayed in the room. When the door was closed, Sun Hai's face showed a touch of hostility. He was having a hard time suppressing his realm. Moreover, the temptation of becoming a senior listener constantly instigated him to put himself in danger. It was simply a kind of physical and mental torture.
The most suitable way now was to go to that node to promote himself. According to the information published in the forum, when a senior listener enters that node, because the senior listener has a call to the surrounding space, once a senior listener enters this node, it is likely to cause a series of reactions, and the surrounding space will be corrected. At the same time, for a special case like Sun Hai, he could rely on this correction process to expel the soul turbulence caused by his promotion to a senior listener.
This meant that a senior listener was the "catalyst" in a chemical reaction.
Right now, it was clear that Liu Tao didn't believe him;
Yes, Sun Hai himself didn't believe that he would keep his promise and not go in to do his own thing after knowing the location of the node. Who could resist being promoted to a senior listener?
However, Sun Hai didn't know the location of the node. In addition, the senior listener formation master, Mr. Lei, was still here. Sun Hai also knew that even if he was promoted to a senior listener, he might not be a match for this senior listener. After all, there was still a big gap between the strength of senior listeners. Moreover, the other party was a formation master. Formation masters were the most difficult existence to deal with in all strengthening systems, no matter what level.
Admittedly, if he was promoted to a senior listener, Mr. Lei might not make things difficult for him because of this node. Both of them were already at the same level. It was not worth it to offend a powerhouse of the same level for an illusory spiritual artifact. However, for Sun Hai, the crux of the matter was that if he didn't enter that node, he couldn't or dared to be promoted to a senior listener. In this way, he wouldn't be qualified to talk to Mr. Lei on an equal footing.
Gritting his teeth, Sun Hai stood in front of the small window.
The facilities of this seven-day hotel were very poor. The window was also very small. Now, even the small window in front of Sun Hai and the humid and stuffy air outside were so disgusting!
…
"Knock, knock, knock …"
Liu Tao knocked on the door respectfully without any unnecessary movements. The person he wanted to visit was Mr. Lei, a senior listener who had strengthened formations. Anyone who visited such a person would inevitably be a little scared.
You could even imagine the countless ways to die after breaking the door. That was because behind the door, there might be a terrifying array formation with killing intent.
Formation masters were weak because they generally didn't have strong close combat ability. But it was also because of this that formation masters knew how to protect themselves, which was to rely on their own formations.
"Come in."
Mr. Lei's voice was very powerful.
The door opened in response.
Liu Tao saw Mr. Lei sitting at the table. In front of him was a sand table.
On the sand table was not a military map or small flags of various colors. Instead, it was a five-story building. The first floor of the building was a variety of shops. The outer wall was yellow, and there was a seven-day sign on it.
This sand table was a simulation of the building he was currently in.
Liu Tao stood beside Mr. Lei and didn't dare to say much. He was waiting for Mr. Lei to speak. This was the most basic etiquette. It had nothing to do with the cultural differences between the East and the West. Even if a low-level western listener was facing a high-level listener, it was the same.
The level of status depended on the inequality of power, wealth, and so on. In front of an audience, it seemed simpler and more direct.
"Are you here for Sun Hai's matter?"
Mr. Lei was wearing a brown gown. This style of dressing was a bit like Kong Yiji written by Lu Xun. In this era, it seemed a little out of place. If Mr. Lei wanted to, he could even wear a pair of sunglasses to the Huangpu Military Academy Memorial Hall in Guangzhou or the Presidential Palace in Nanjing for a photo. Because Mr. Lei was also bald and thin, it was really easy for him to cosplay as Principal Chang Kaishen. Moreover, Mr. Lei was also from Zhejiang.
"Yes, I will organize people to enter the node area tomorrow. But at that time, Sun Hai will definitely not be able to hide it from him," Liu Tao said respectfully.
"It's okay. Before you organize people to go in tomorrow, I will set up a formation to temporarily control Sun Hai. After all, he is not a high-level listener yet."
If he was not a high-level listener, he was not the same kind of person. Mr. Lei saw this very clearly and thoroughly.
Liu Tao nodded and was about to leave when he saw Mr. Lei raise his hand to stop him from leaving.
Liu Tao asked, "Room 233, has it been arranged?"
"That is the room you specifically named to place your formation device. How can it be arranged? I have already arranged it at the front desk of the hotel. I have reserved room 233 for a month, and it doesn't need to be cleaned," Liu Tao replied.
In fact, Liu Tao had suspected whether room 233 was the location of the node. But since Mr. Lei had ordered him to do so, it was obvious that he had also arranged it. So he did not have any evil thoughts. He just did not know why Mr. Lei asked this question at this time.
Mr. Lei took out his mobile phone, which was playing a surveillance video. It should be obtained from the front desk of the hotel.
This surveillance location was facing the direction of room 201 to 250. Room 233 was in the innermost position in the middle, which meant that the other rooms were facing each other, but only room 233 was in a separate direction.
In the surveillance video, the door was pushed open from the inside. A man in black sportswear walked out from the inside with headphones plugged in. He was walking towards the location where the elevator was located.
"Did the hotel arrange this room for someone else?" Sun Hai was a little angry.
"Silly." Mr. Lei berated, "With the array that I had set up beforehand, even a high-level Listener would not be able to push open this door without making a sound!"
"Yes, yes." Liu Tao immediately came to a realization.
"Moreover, this door was pushed open from the inside."
"From the inside?" Liu Tao was shocked. "Could it be …"
