I Have A Game Clone

131 The Missing He Family

After Zong Shangren left, Ning Shi said to Wu Qihua and Jin Rongzhi, “You two, I’m exhausted from the battle just now, so I’m going back to my room to rest. If you’re not in a hurry, we can talk more after the wounded are settled.”

Before Wu Qihua could say anything, Jin Rongzhi said, “Principal Ning, is your body alright? I have the military’s special golden worm pill here that can effectively recover your body’s injuries.”

Ning Shi quickly pushed the pill back.

“I’m fine. Thank you for your kindness, General Jin. I just don’t want to see the ground full of injured people. I’m going back to my room to rest.”

Then, Ning Shi winked at General Jin mischievously.

Jin Rongzhi immediately understood and stopped talking.

After Ning Shi returned to his room, he locked the door.

The reason why he was in such a hurry to return to his room was that the system had given him a prompt after killing the evil spirit assassin.

[ Killed 1 high-level evil spirit assassin. Gained 8 World Energy Points. ]

[ Killed 1 high-level evil spirit assassin. Gained 7 World Energy Points. ]

[ Killed 1 high-level evil spirit assassin. Gained 9 World Energy Points. ]

..

After killing 13 evil spirit assassins, he gained 105 World Energy Points.

A progress bar also appeared at the system version update.

[ Game system version 4.0 update energy charging progress (105/50000) ]

Seeing this notification, Ning Shi’s eyes lit up. Killing an evil spirit assassin would give him World Energy. A high-level evil spirit assassin could contribute about 8 points of energy.

If that was the case, the energy from the system update would be enough to kill more than 6000 high-level evil spirit assassins!

Ning Shi could be considered to have experienced the benefits of the system update. The Eye of Truth was so useful.

At the end of the notification for the energy obtained from killing the evil spirits, the game system also gave a red prompt.

[ The evil spirit assassin was born from the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure by fusing the evil spirit with the world’s origin power. Killing the evil spirit assassin and extracting the world’s origin power from its body has already been sensed by the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure. Please be prepared to face the battle that may come at any time. ]

Ning Shi was puzzled. “The game system had avoided mentioning the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure before. Now, not only did it explain the origin of the evil spirit assassin, but it also dared to absorb the world’s origin power contained in the evil spirit assassin’s body. This change is quite significant.”

The system answered.

[ The origin treasure only has instinct and no intelligence. Its initial avoidance was due to its instinct to avoid. Now that it’s absorbing the evil spirit assassin’s world essence, it can feel the host’s determination to fight.

[ If the world origin of the evil spirit assassin is not absorbed, the world origin will return to the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure, and killing the evil spirit assassin will be a waste of effort.

[ As the time that the original source treasure is bound to the host increases, its instincts will gradually disappear and it will become an unconscious product. All actions will be based on the host’s decision, and the host will be responsible for the consequences of the actions. ]

By now, Ning Shi had gradually understood the situation of the origin treasure.

In the early days, all actions were based on instinct. After choosing a host, if the host performed well for a long time and was not swallowed by other origin treasures, then his instinct would gradually disappear.

The host’s consciousness will completely dominate the origin treasure.

If the host, like beast god Guevsh, was crazy in the early stage of obtaining the origin treasure, the treasure would run away instinctively and find another way or host.

After reading the system prompt, Ning Shi walked out of the room and found that the wounded had been driven to the hospital and their bodies had been collected.

Zong Qing appeased the servants and chefs in the manor and instructed them to clean up the scene and prepare lunch.

Seeing Ning Shi come out, Zong Qing walked over.

“Principal Ning, thank you so much for today. If you weren’t here, my whole family would probably… The consequences will be unimaginable.”

After expressing his gratitude, Zong Qing asked with a worried expression, “Principal Ning, I wonder if the evil spirit you mentioned will come to my family again?”

This time, Zong Qing was truly afraid.

Due to the evil spirit assassin’s concealment, not only did Yi Shengjia and some Tier 8 powerhouses not discover him, even the trump cards he had invited, Principal Wu Qihua and General Jin Rongzhi, could not discover him.

Zong Qing had already realized that the helpers he had invited were unable to deal with the evil spirit.

It was inevitable for Zong Qing to be terrified by such a terrifying enemy.

Ning Shi didn’t answer directly but called Principal Wu, General Jin, and a few leaders of the Investigation Department to the guest room of the manor with Zong Qing.

“I read about evil spirits in a book,” he said. “The book says that evil spirits are monsters that are a combination of human emotions and thoughts.

“These monsters don’t have a physical body or a soul, so it’s hard to detect them with physical or spiritual perception.”

Ning Shi wanted to fight with the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure. Of course, he hoped to borrow everyone’s power, so his introduction to the evil spirit was very detailed.

“Evil spirits don’t have hearing or sight, but they have a certain sense of smell. They rely on their perception of the creature’s emotions and thoughts to determine the location of a creature. In theory, if a creature can completely restrain its emotions and thoughts, the evil spirit won’t be able to find you.

“As an evil spirit is an amalgamation of emotions and thoughts, it can still reassemble its body even after it was shattered. Physical and elemental attacks would cause damage to it, but with its abnormal ability to reassemble its body, the damage would be infinitely reduced.

“Evil spirits are most afraid of Baleful Qi. Whether it’s the Killing Baleful Qi condensed from a mountain of corpses or a sea of blood or the Baleful Qi of heaven and earth formed by a unique natural environment, they can both cause effective damage to evil spirits.”

Upon hearing this, Yi Shengjia, who had followed them forcefully, asked, “Principal Ning, if that’s the case, the evil spirit is invisible and immune to most damage, so it’s really hard to deal with.”

Jin Rongzhi had been fighting against the insect swarm for many years, and it was his instinct to find the enemy’s weakness. He said, “According to Principal Ning’s description, the best way I can think of to deal with evil spirits is to use a control spell with a larger area of effect.”

“After being attacked by an evil spirit, immediately use spatial shackles, vacuum air rings, mental cages, and other control methods to restrict their range of movement. Then, if you have Baleful Qi, release it. If you don’t, use area-of-effect skills to attack the confined space indiscriminately, grinding the evil spirit to death.

Jin Rongzhi’s method was indeed effective in dealing with the evil spirit assassins, but there were not many awakened ones with such ability even among the Tier 9 powerhouses.”

Wu Qihua sighed.”It’s mainly because the evil spirit’s concealment ability is too overpowered. We’re already in a passive situation before the battle even started.”

“There are many kinds of evil spirits,” Ning Shi reminded. “The book records the characteristics of evil spirit assassins. As for the abilities of the other evil spirits, it’s unknown for now.”

“Principal Wu is right. If we can find a way to sense the evil spirit, the situation will be very different.”

Ning Shi took the teacup that Zong Qing handed over, took a sip, and continued, “We can now confirm that the evil spirit is controlling the He family in some way.

“He Chuankun once wanted to buy my company, which sells tea. The evil spirit is now targeting the Zong family because of the Zong family’s beverage production and sales capabilities.

...

“Evil spirits are made of emotions and feed on emotions. They are especially fond of negative emotions such as panic and madness. I guess the drink they are going to produce must be something that can evoke negative emotions in humans.”

When Ning Shi said this, Zong Qing’s expression revealed a trace of joy, looking at Ning Shi gratefully.

Because according to Ning Shi, the evil spirit’s threat to the Zong family was no longer a personal grudge of the Zong family, but a major incident involving national security.

The authorities could not stand by and do nothing.

Once the drink was produced by the evil spirit, it would cause panic throughout the country. Not only would it cause great harm to society, but it would also increase the strength of the evil spirit and make it more difficult to deal with.

The leader of the Investigation Department’s main team, Meng Dengjun, said, “I know what the evil spirit is going to produce.”

He took out a bottle of 3-dollar Coke. The liquid inside was black, similar to Coke.

“When Principal Ning mentioned evil spirits, I thought of them, so I quickly went back to my room and took out this drink. It’s called Exhilarating Coke and is very popular overseas.

“After taking it, one’s emotions would become extremely crazy, and one’s mind would be in a state of chaos. There would be a kind of pleasure of forgetting everything without knowing the day and the moon. This drink is addictive.

“It’s produced by the Evil Spirit overseas.”

Ning Shi’s expression changed. He had heard Yun Moxiang mention the name Evil Spirit before. It was a newly established cult.

...

“The Evil Spirit first appeared in the Kingdom of Mies,” Meng Dengjun explained. “Their doctrine believes in fear and madness. They believe that humans can become immortal evil spirits in fear and madness.

“The Evil Spirit originally didn’t have many believers, but after the Bei Shi Nation was destroyed by the insect disaster, global panic began to spread. People began to seek ways to become stronger, and the Evil Spirit absorbed a large number of believers, including many of the upper class of the Kingdom of Mies.

“After they grew in power, they began to produce stimulative music to expand their believers and accumulate wealth.

“Now, the Kingdom of Mies and international organizations had defined the Evil Spirit as a cult and had begun to eliminate it, but the results are not good.

“There have been missionaries from the Evil Spirit appearing in our country recently, and we’ve been secretly following and investigating them.”

Upon hearing Meng Dengjun’s words, Ning Shi’s expression turned grave. It seemed that the Evil Spirit World’s origin treasure had already developed a considerable force on thick earth. It had even infiltrated his base camp, the Yunmeng Kingdom.

No matter what, he had to crack down on the power of the Evil Spirit and start with the He family!

Just as Ning Shi was about to say that he was going to the He family to catch people, a small captain of the Investigation Department came in in a hurry.

“Bad news! Captain Meng! Everyone in the He family has disappeared!”
