Late at night.
Liu Xiaojiang quietly left the dark fortress base alone and returned to the village where Quan Xing and the others were temporarily staying.
As soon as he entered the house..
He found that Er Zhuang had obviously finished his training and seemed to be waiting for him.
"It's already so late. Aren't you going to rest..." Liu Xiaojiang glanced at Er Zhuang, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room. He walked to the coffee table and sat down. He reached out to pick up the kettle and made himself a cup of hot tea.
"... Waiting for me?"
"Why don't you just use the ability of both hands to control the staff of the dark fortress to do things for you?" Er Zhuang crossed his arms and looked at Liu Xiaojiang with a dissatisfied expression.
"You can use this method to completely eliminate the possibility of those people betraying you, but you just have to let that woman... let her supervise the situation of the base on your behalf. You even gave her a true immortal body. Is this just compensation for her?"
"Otherwise..." Liu Xiaojiang picked up the cup and took a sip of the boiling hot tea. Then, he exhaled a breath of hot air as if he was sighing.
"Although I can use both hands to achieve the same result, have you ever thought that if I were to exert control over them one by one, there are so many people in the base... How long would I have to stay there?"
"Besides..."
"The kind of 'control' you think of is not a kind of control in essence. Instead, it is to cut out their memories through the ability and then guide them psychologically to a certain extent. Only then can the effect of 'mental control' be produced."
"And..."
"This kind of thing is not absolute. It often requires the target to have suffered some kind of huge mental blow. There must be a 'loophole' in the tough soul... Only then can it be used both hands to exert control over the soul."
As he said..,
He drank the hot tea in the cup in one gulp and said, "Although with my level, even without these prerequisites, I can successfully use both hands to exert control over the target. But in that case... I can't say how many sequelae it will leave on the target."
"After all, a human's soul is indeed fragile. But in terms of toughness … it is indeed extremely tough on a certain level, especially when it comes to the memories deeply engraved in the depths of one's soul. As long as one's willpower is strong enough … it can even repair itself."
"For example, the way Qu Tong used to control Old Ma was undoubtedly to take advantage of Old Ma's weak willpower when he suffered a blow... She cut out his memories to a certain extent, and then guided him psychologically."
"However, Old Ma is a mutant after all, and he is also the successor of the Refined Divine Armament. Even if he is not good at the cultivation of the soul, his willpower is stronger than that of ordinary people. Therefore, even if Qu Tong really succeeds, she still has to use several methods to maintain the effect according to the situation."
.............
"If it weren't for the fact that Qu Tong also had some feelings for Old Ma and didn't choose to go further through the ability of both hands on this foundation, I'm afraid that he would sooner or later become a fool with a serious mental illness..."
"Although my current level is higher than Qu Tong's, it's also impossible for me to really tamper with it... or even fabricate a memory out of thin air for others. Because this is almost equivalent to creating a soul out of thin air. I can't do it... It's impossible to do it with both hands."
"So..."
"If you want to directly exert means on others and forcefully cut out their memories, it will inevitably cause extremely serious sequelae to the target. Perhaps... it will even turn the target into an idiot. After that, even the ability of both hands will not be able to repair it."
"You have to know that..."
"This kind of effect is similar to having someone undergo a frontal lobotomy. In some countries outside... it is a kind of torture for vicious criminals."
"How can I use such extreme means to force them to do things for me in order to 'save people'..."
"..." Hearing these words, Er Zhuang suddenly fell silent. After a long time, he reluctantly believed Liu Xiaojiang's explanation.
"This is actually crueler than killing them..."
"Of course..." Liu Xiaojiang nodded. "If they are unwilling to compromise, even if I kill them, there is still room to maneuver. I can also use the corpse poison and the ability of both hands to revive them. But if they are completely turned into idiots, there is no way to save them."
"That's why I have to resort to this..." Er Zhuang looked at Liu Xiaojiang doubtfully. "Do you have to leave a suitable person to be in charge of supervision?"
"And the woman who once took care of you... is the best candidate?"
"Ah..." Liu Xiaojiang nodded. "I admit that I am a little selfish in this matter. Because whether or not Wuyue is in charge of supervision, the possibility of the staff of the Dark Fortress betraying me after seeing the stick and carrot with their own eyes... is very low."
"So..."
"On the one hand, I am doing this to prevent accidents from happening. On the other hand... because of some things in the past, I want to compensate Wuyue to a certain extent."
"I believe..."
"If that child Wu Xiangyou is still alive, he should also hope that his sister Wuyue can let go of everything in the past and live a good life..."
"Hmph!" When Er Zhuang saw Liu Xiaojiang's despondent appearance, even if he believed that this blockhead would not flirt outside, it was inevitable that he would feel a little unhappy about it.
"You really don't have any other thoughts about that woman?"
"If you ask me..."
"The way that woman looks at you is obviously not right. It doesn't feel like she is facing an ordinary friend at all. That complicated, hesitant... and even hesitant look. Why do I feel like there is something between the two of you that I don't know?"
"..." Liu Xiaojiang was speechless.
"Say it!" When Er Zhuang saw Liu Xiaojiang's silence, he curled his lips in anger and said.
"Weren't you very talkative just now? Why don't you say anything at the crucial point?"
"Friend..." Liu Xiaojiang knew very well that Er Zhuang didn't have any ill intentions, nor was he targeting Wuyue, a woman he had never met before. However, he didn't know how to explain this baffling question.
"That's all..."
However,
"Friend? That's all?! "Er Zhuang was furious when he heard this.
"Do you think that we're just friends like that woman … and that's all there is between us?!"
"No …" Liu Xiaojiang saw Er Zhuang's reaction and couldn't help but be extremely confused. Then the thoughts in his mind ran quickly and he tried to appease Er Zhuang.
"Companion..."
"You are different from her. You are my companion... and the person I trust the most."
