Chapter 9 Fading
Humans cannot understand cats' emotions, the rebelliousness shining in those eyes.
Perhaps, there will be some unspeakable loneliness.
If Yi Chun could not regain his human form, he felt that he would be lonely at this moment.
At the very least, under the illumination of thousands of lights, the weakness in human nature will be deeply and defenselessly touched.
Sharp objects will cut through the hard shells, while trickling water can pass through the tiny holes.
Then, quietly soak in it...
Yi Chun is not a person with indifferent emotions. There has also been heat and light flowing in his heart.
Perhaps in those exemplary stories, this will be his journey of redemption.
But now, Yi Chun licked his paws.
He no longer thought that he needed redemption, and chose to pursue his true self...
Although there is no complete information system between mice as humans know it.
But the sudden death of more than ten rats in one day has caused the rat population in the area to become restless.
Certain factors lurking in their ancient genes are reminding them that they should choose to leave.
It’s not because they can detect the source of the danger.
Instead, it is the blood and tears experience immersed in the veins of the ancient population that tells the newborns:
Unknown changes always bring unexpected disasters.
In this respect, the tendency toward stability is by no means a sign of weakness in nature.
Perhaps it was some kind of spiritual feedback, at this moment Yi Chun could feel the trembling and fear...
This is naturally considered an evil element by human morality, but the stimulation it provides is indescribable.
Nature is not only warm and full of vitality, it also has storms that can sweep and destroy!
But Yi Chun did not indulge in this state:
Using human consciousness to suppress a group of rats is not something to be proud of.
Just as a young child can dominate an anthill, the joy he can dig out from it may not be so abundant.
"Child, come here for dinner!"
The old man living next to the straw pile was greeting his grandson.
There was a flicker of fire on his hand from time to time, and wisps of rising green smoke could be seen through the dim light bulb.
That is not a product of an assembly line, but rather a local tobacco made by farmers themselves by rolling dried tobacco leaves around waste paper.
Yi Chunben had no intention of paying attention to this family. He was thinking about many things.
For example, how to extend the duration of this copy, as well as matters regarding skills and keywords.
But at this moment, he smelled something indescribable.
In rural legends, cats are always inevitably endowed with a certain weirdness and mystery.
Although up to now, Yi Chun has not found any essential difference between his current condition and that of other cats.
But at this moment, he did feel a special feeling that could not be described.
Cats, especially big cats, seem to have had a strong oppression against related dark existences since ancient times.
However, it is not so easy to say about small cats...
With the dim moonlight, Yi Chun glanced sideways through the gap in the straw pile.
Then, he seemed to see something indescribable.
However, when Yi Chun opened his eyes wide like copper bells to look again, he found nothing.
Only the churning memories clearly reminded him that it was not his hallucination.
It seemed to be a white figure, like a hunchbacked old man.
It stood quietly outside the door, as if waiting, or guarding...
It seems that in the civilized desert between the mountains, the boundary between life and death has become unclear.
In the muddled world of slash-and-burn farming, the favor filled with firewood and sewing has become more persistent.
It penetrates the invisible horizon, leaving behind the final gaze of life.
Until the light takes away the last bit of persistence, until oblivion annihilates the silent watch...
…
…
Yi Chun left silently. It was probably the spirit marked scarlet in the copy description.
But the two words "spirit" and "essence" alone are not enough to describe what he encountered.
Or, in other words, it's like taking human beings as a concept.
Everyone is a different individual.
And these cannot be summarized by simple words.
In the relevant information of the copy, there are actually some basic explanations of related existence.
At least Yi Chun knew that spirit essence was the condensation of the soul obsession of an intelligent life.
It can be considered the lowest form of death life, capable of draining the enemy's energy after being attacked.
According to the information Yi Chun had access to, there was no means to deal with this kind of monster.
However, as a person with rich gaming experience, Yi Chun could naturally think of many methods that could be tried.
For animals, good and evil are chaotic .
Yi Chun didn't know whether he could kill the spirit, but he didn't have the determination to kill him.
Because that goes against his inner morals and values.
Even if we kill the opponent here, no one will know.
Even the life of the old man who takes care of his grandson will not change at all.
After all, the material boundary between life and death cannot be broken so easily.
But the inner whipping never comes too late...
A gentleman is cautious when alone, and the ancients had already defined this.
However, the benefits of this copy are enough.
It is an attempt and can be considered a pioneering effort.
Of course, the real existence of the spirit also provided a good answer to Yi Chun’s doubts.
He hesitated for a long time about the choice of keywords for his skills.
Because there are too many keywords he can think of.
But now, without any relevant skills, the gap in this regard is even greater.
It was just that the existence of the spirit reminded him that perhaps many things might be biased when viewed from the perspective of the game.
For example: the huge effect that invisibility plays in real combat .
Yi Chun began to try to imagine that he could have the ability of mobile invisibility, and he found that it would greatly improve his predatory efficiency.
Because for now, mice will be his main prey in the initial stages.
And for this, he doesn't necessarily need such powerful killing skills.
At least, that was the case when he did not choose to challenge a more difficult existence.
In general, it is a vacillation between seeking stability and taking an unconventional approach...
So, in the end, Yi Chun tried to use his mind to input the concepts of invisibility and mobility into the still blank skill keywords.
Soon, a new message appeared in front of him:
"Keywords entered: invisible, movable, do you want to extract?"
But Yi Chun looked carefully and did not see the yes or no option.
Just as he was about to figure out how to make his choice, new information flashed before his eyes:
"The selection is complete, and the extraction is in progress..."
"Extraction successful, the character's small cat form gains the wild skill: Fade."
“
Fade:
Type: Wild Skills (Ranger/Rogue-Related)
Quality: Green (Professional Element +2)
describe:
After a standard action, the character becomes physically invisible with a delay.
In this state, any observations captured by limiting the light are likely to fail.
”
Yi Chun wagged his tail, and under the cool moonlight in the mountains, his figure gradually disappeared...
