Chapter 322: Item Medium
Only after Xu Huo returned did Yan Jiayu and the others bring out the collected items to distribute, aside from the items belonging to the players under Dai Wenqian and those who came to ambush them this time.
Although the bald man and the other surviving player were taken away by the Special Defense Department, all their items had been confiscated.
There were quite a few items obtained, but in Xu Huo's view, they weren't very practical. So after discussing, he took the bald man's Golden Bell item, and the other items were divided among Yan Jiayu and the others.
"But the news of Brother Xu's evolution has already spread. There will definitely be more people like Hou Song in the future. Being assassinated day and night isn't a solution either," Yuan Yao worried about his own life.
"So I plan to move near the Special Defense Department," Xu Huo said. "It's safer than us living here."
"That's true," Zhou Ning said. "Although there are more players now, they haven't reached the point where they can openly challenge the government yet. Living near the Special Defense Department, ordinary players wouldn't dare to cause trouble, but it means being under the Special Defense Department's surveillance all the time."
"Surveillance is surveillance, so what?" Yuan Yao said indifferently. "We're being monitored living here anyway. Moving to the Special Defense Department's doorstep is like having an extra security guard watching the door! I'll go find a place right now!"
"It's getting late, we'll talk about it tomorrow," Xu Huo said to everyone. "My place and Yuan Yao's are opposite each other, both sides can be used."
He originally hadn't prepared so many bed sheets and covers, but since Yu Qingqing had stayed over, she bought a lot of things, so there was ample supply.
Everyone settled down. Xu Huo returned to his room, took out the Sound-Muffling Figurine and placed it on the bed, then retrieved the item "World Within the Painting." As soon as he came out, Brother Tu couldn't wait to open his mouth and take a deep breath.
Xu Huo waited for him for two seconds before saying, "Only ten minutes of air time. Let's chat again."
Brother Tu also saw the Sound-Muffling Figurine and sneered, "So they really all died by your hand."
"Isn't it normal that those who kill will one day be killed?" Xu Huo placed the painting on the cabinet and sat at the foot of the bed, interlocking his fingers. "About Super Evolution, don't you have anything else you want to say?"
"I don't know much, I've said all I can," Brother Tu said. "The process of Super Evolution cannot be replicated. If you're thinking of trying to trigger evolution yourself, you'd be better off finding a couple more bottles of evolution agent."
After experiencing the Fog Zone hospital and getting answers from within the game, Xu Huo also understood that Super Evolution had a certain degree of randomness and extremely high risk, but what he wanted to know now wasn't the principle.
The two major evolution directions the game gave regarding Super Evolution—he should be categorized under the self-control direction.
"Super Evolution involves the physical aspect, and there should also be a mental aspect," he asked. "What is the state after mental evolution?"
"Don't know," Brother Tu was also blunt.
Xu Huo raised an eyebrow, stood up, walked to the door, and lightly tapped on the door panel. The Painting Woman then drifted in from under the door crack, instantly transforming into human form.
Xu Huo pointed at the painting, and she eagerly squeezed into the painting.
The painting didn't gain an extra person, but Brother Tu's face became even more abstract, his mouth open without making a sound, his eyeballs rapidly rotating within the painting, desperately trying to struggle outward. But he couldn't break free from the item's power, let alone with the Painting Woman still inside. She could come and go freely, so she would occasionally reach out a hand to push him back in.
