In this crowded and noisy environment, it stood to reason that many people should be able to see this ball of icy mist-like energy.
But in fact, no one but Roland could see it.
And as it got closer, Roland could even feel that this thing had a cold feeling.
To be honest, Roland didn't really want to absorb this unknown substance.
But instinctively, his soul had a desire for this thing.
Instinct was telling him that it was good stuff.
So he didn't move and just sat at the table, waiting for the icy mist to come.
Waiting for this ball of icy mist to sink into his body.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but then he found that there were a lot more things in his mind.
A lot of memories.
Although they were all fragments, Roland could tell that they were memories of someone named Qiang, from when he was a child to today's marriage.
If it was just memories, it would have been fine, but the problem was that Roland could feel that a lot of his MP had been replenished.
Even … the upper limit of his MP had increased.
That was to say, his mental power had expanded even stronger.
There was a saying for such a phenomenon in the game.
Soul devouring!
In the magic world, this was a way to increase the upper limit of one's MP.
But there were gods there, and all souls belonged to the God of Death. Rashly devouring souls would not only turn one into an evil alignment, but they would also be targeted by the God of Death.
So except for a small number of liches, the average spellcaster wouldn't have any ideas about human souls.
Another reason was that … souls in the game world could exist for a long time, and devouring a few souls could easily assimilate the memories of other souls and even lead to a split personality.
But the ball of icy mist energy that Roland had just devoured was no longer a soul.
It had been reduced to energy, so Roland could only read memory fragments, not complete memories.
Because in this world, there was no soil in which souls could exist for a long time.
He was savoring the feeling of suddenly becoming a lot stronger. On the stage, the doctor and nurse had been working hard.
The middle-aged doctor even started artificial respiration.
But Roland knew that the groom was beyond saving.
His soul was gone, and even if he was barely saved, he would probably be a vegetable.
The kind that would never wake up.
At this time, the entire seventh hall was silent. Most people watched the doctor on stage working hard, and a small number of people, wary of these things, got up and quietly left.
Night Tide Sands and her friends were all still sitting.
It wasn't that they were calm, but that it had happened so suddenly that they were stunned for a moment.
About ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the hotel. Soon, a stretcher was brought up.
The groom's relatives hurriedly lifted the groom and carried him to the ambulance.
After that, the rest of the guests slowly left.
Night Tide Sands said goodbye to her friends with a helpless expression and didn't look for Ah Zhen again.
Because Ah Zhen had disappeared a long time ago.
The two of them returned to the car, and Night Tide Sands leaned over the steering wheel gloomily, and after a while, she said to Roland, "I'm sorry I brought you to see such an embarrassing thing."
"Shame? What's there to be ashamed of? It's not like it's your business. "Roland smiled." But I might as well say that what happened today was a real eye-opener for me. "
Hmm … Roland had thought that he would only see such a thing on the news during a wedding, but it was quite amusing to see it in real life.
More importantly, Roland also discovered something important about magic.
It could be said to be a great harvest.
How could he not be happy?
Night Tide Sands turned her head and saw Roland smiling, and then she was a little depressed again.
Girls just liked to overthink.
She felt that if she had known she would discover something like this, she wouldn't have brought Roland along.
She was now very worried that Roland's feelings for her would worsen.
Because wasn't there an old saying that birds of a feather flock together?
Having a good friend who cheated, would he think that she was the same kind of person?
Then by extension, even if Roland didn't think that she was the same kind of person, would he have a fear of marriage or something like that when he saw such a situation?
The groom passed out from anger, and might even have died from anger.
Would he think that women were all as bad-hearted as Ah Zhen?
The more she thought about it, the more worried Night Tide Sands felt.
But looking at Roland's smiling face, she wanted to defend but couldn't, so how could she speak up for Ah Zhen?
In the end, she could only sullenly start the car and go home.
Around three o 'clock in the afternoon, Night Tide Sands dropped Roland home.
Watching Roland get out of the car, she hesitated to speak, then finally let out a long sigh and drove away.
Then she complained to herself about Ah Zhen.
Her original intention was to let Roland witness a wedding and awaken his thoughts about the affairs between men and women, about marriage.
As a result … there was a negative effect.
After returning home, Roland sat down, picked up a notebook, and wrote three lines on it.
In the real world, he had three ways to absorb energy.
One was to go over to the Yu family's ancestral shrine to absorb energy, but the effect wasn't strong and had to be converted, so the effect was a little low. Most importantly, the Yu family's tomb keeper was a little suspicious of him.
The second one was Magic Transformation, which was definitely very profitable … but also very costly. Roland already felt that his body was getting weaker.
The third was discovered today, absorbing energy after a broken soul.
This was the most efficient, frighteningly so.
Absorbing a mass was equivalent to nearly a month of Demonization.
The efficiency was excellent.
But this thing was also the hardest to find.
Also, Roland discovered that not everyone could have a soul after death. One had to have a special talent like Ah Qiang, whose emotional fluctuations could be sensed from more than ten meters away.
Because he had been looking for energy for a long time and had been to many places, including hospitals, he hadn't found that icy fog-like energy.
And if he specifically spent time looking for the icy fog-like energy mass, it would be fine if he found it, but it would be a waste of time if he couldn't.
It was better to practice the Nourishment of Life, strengthen his psoas, and then directly Demonization.
As for the output, it was stable.
After thinking through these pros and cons, Roland gave up the idea of looking for the icy fog-like energy mass.
Anyway, it was his luck to get it, and it was his fate to lose it.
And … Roland went downstairs in high spirits, got on his mountain bike, and went to the park.
From afar, he saw the old man walking on the mountain road.
He ignored him and didn't even go up the mountain. Instead, he strolled casually in the park.
Then, he found a deserted corner and activated Teleportation in a corner where there was no one around where he could see.
Because Teleportation had been modified once before, it slightly reduced the consumption and shortened the teleportation distance.
This time, the teleportation was successful, and he was teleported directly to the secret base.
"It worked!"
Roland looked at the sunlit ball of light above his head, which was still working, and clenched his fists tightly.
Although there was only a little MP left, it was indeed a success.
Next, he used Demonization to restore more than half of his magic power.
Then he began to seal the entrance.
The stone stairs, more than a hundred meters long, were resealed by him with Stone to Mud.
After all this was done, he used Demonization on himself several more times to replenish the magic power in his body. Then, holding his waist, he teleported to the corner where he had just teleported.
He rested in place for a while, then went to a real estate agent near the park and asked if there were any vacant rooms.
The saleswoman contacted him and told him that there were only a few rooms left on the top floor.
Roland chose one at random and said, "I don't have my ID with me, but I'll reserve this room. How much do I need as a deposit?"
As soon as he said this, the saleswoman's eyes lit up.
Small cities were different from big cities. Houses were harder to sell, especially on the top floor.
Now that someone was taking over, she couldn't have asked for more.
At the same time, she winked at Roland.
Although the houses here weren't expensive, they cost more than six thousand per square meter, and this young man wanted to buy a house of more than a hundred square meters. In big and small cities, young people with such purchasing power were all good stocks.
Roland turned a blind eye to the girl's winking. As soon as he turned around, he saw the old man staring at him with a smile.
He frowned, ignored him, and turned to leave.
By the time he got home, it was already evening.
Roland didn't tell his family that he had casually bought a house.
After all, it was going to be a teleportation point, and it wouldn't be good to tell.
Next, Roland entered the game and was "ravaged" by the etiquette room.
After getting out of the game the next day, he went to the sales office with his ID and signed the purchase contract.
And the old man, with a fat young man, went halfway up the mountain, found the place where Roland had walked before, and entered the grass.
"Uncle, look, it's almost forming a walkway here." The slightly fat middle-aged man pointed to the front and said, "It means that that person often walks here, there must be something going on."
The two followed the tracks Roland left behind and walked all the way to the front of the mountain.
"He stopped here." The middle-aged man pointed nearby and said, "There's no road ahead. He couldn't have climbed up the mountain from here, could he?"
The old man panted. It was really hard for him to walk such a rugged mountain road.
He looked around and said, "That means he did something here."
"Probably," the middle-aged man said. "I installed a hidden field camera here first. This thing is used to capture wildlife. It has an infrared function and the longest standby time is more than 17 days. It's very expensive."
The old man nodded. He walked left and right, and finally came to a rock mass and called out, "Come here and take a look. Isn't there something wrong with this place?"
The fat man walked over, looked for a moment, and said, "Sure enough, something is wrong."
The mountain here was all mud, but in front of them was a circle of rocks.
And the radius of this rock circle was at least two meters high. Also, the rocks were very new, as if they had been transported from outside and then embedded.
"This isn't something like a secret door, is it?"
"It looks like it, but it doesn't." The old man nodded. "Because it looks too abrupt and obvious."
The fat man pressed the rock circle with his hand and said, "It feels strange and hard. Let's see if there are any traps nearby."
The two of them searched for a while, plucking a lot of grass and digging a lot of small holes, but they didn't find any traps.
"Then I'll chisel some stones back and have someone analyze them."
