lost narrative poem

In Chapter 18 mainline reading...

Just like the fighting, killing, and eating of parasitic beasts, many times they are not discovered. In this era, Japan is not full of cameras.

Xia Ran, who had planned the route in advance, was not found and did not encounter any unexpected situation, but left the crime scene very easily, but he did not get on the tram again, and then rushed to the next city.

Instead, boarded a ferry—

Because this is also his next plan.

He only relaxed when he was on the boat, and he was in the mood to count the gains just now. The point value of the parasitic beast has become 400 points, and only 2 free attribute points have been given, and the income visible to the naked eye has dropped.

It's just that he had expected it before, so he wasn't too disappointed.

Almost half a month has passed, but Xia Ran's plan is not going well.

Because he hunted and killed three parasitic beasts with mental arithmetic and unintentional only through fishing law enforcement and righteous acid tactics.And even with the addition of the one at the beginning, there are only four of them, and the progress is unimaginably slow.

Probably because of the smoothness at the beginning, he had some kind of illusion. He always felt that as long as this continues, he can easily and quickly grow his own strength. It's easy.

But now... it's not easy to just say.

"Strength: 4"

"Agility: 10"

"Physique: 5"

"Intelligence: 7"

"Spirit: 5"

"Perception: 7"

——This is his current attribute value.

Because the second parasitic beast hunted turned out to be the fusion of two parasitic beasts, if he hadn't insisted on a righteous style of play from the beginning, so that his body was corroded and his consciousness was not unified, he would have died long ago. Die again.

But because of this, he directly received a generous reward of points x 700 and free attribute points x 5 that time.

And after the points broke through the 1000-point mark, he immediately exchanged for a free attribute point. Anyway, it is a little bit to enhance his own ability value. In order to prevent sudden death in the process of hoarding resources, he forced himself to change the hamster bad habits.

There are a total of six free attribute points, and he allocated two points to make up for the lack of mental attributes. At least he must bring this aspect back, and he cannot let mentality, fatigue, concentration and other factors hold him back.

The remaining four points were still added to the agility attribute in one go. After all, if his reaction and speed were a little bit worse before, he might have fallen directly when facing the combined parasitic beast, so he was still ready to continue. Increase agility.

If it is in the game, maybe fighters need to add strength to ensure output, and archers need to add agility to ensure hits. There will probably be the legendary "four strengths and one agility" plus points for fighters, and "four wisdom and one luck" for mages. "Four agility and one strength" archers add points or something.

Everyone tried to improve the main attributes as much as possible, and allocated a small amount of points to the secondary attributes. This is the kingly way.

However, this is not a game, and there is no rigid way to add points to occupations. Everything must be practical.Xia Ran is not doing career planning either, he is just based on a basic idea, that is to make up for his shortcomings while strengthening the attributes that are currently useful to him as much as possible.

The value of strengthening a single attribute value must be astonishing, but the shortcomings cannot be ignored. Even if it cannot be strengthened to a certain height in a short time, at least it cannot hold back.

It is also worth noting that the point value of a single parasitic beast was 500 before, but now it is 400, but the point value of a pair of parasitic beasts is only 700, not 800 or 1000 points...

It seems that the white space has a more complex formula for the calculation and judgment of this aspect, and it is not the simple and rude kind of kindergarten math problem where one plus one equals two?

Think about it too, if this is a zombie-infested world, a novice can get 10 points for killing a zombie. He earned several million points, right?

There must be a more complicated and reasonable calculation formula, and it is reasonable to judge the multi-faceted behavior of the lost.

However, this presumably means that improving your own rating is not the only factor affecting earnings.

Well, this is just Xia Ran's guess, and it doesn't have much meaning for the time being, so he didn't get too entangled in this aspect.Anyway, even if he figured out the secrets, he still had to act according to the formula of the white space, and he was not the one who made the rules.

As for the new two points, he decisively invested in the agility attribute, turning it into a value of 12 points.

Although it was not the first time to feel the seemingly subtle and obvious changes in the body, Xia Ran still felt an indescribable joy and a sense of fulfillment that he was actually improving his own ability.

The most intuitive feeling brought to him by the improvement of the agility attribute is the change in the neural response ability, because now he can barely see the ghost animal movements when the parasitic beast uses its tentacles to transform and attack...

But it's still not very safe, seeing it doesn't mean it can avoid it, so the safest way is to prevent the opponent from attacking from the beginning until death.

He suspected that he had to increase the agility attribute to at least 20 points to be stable, and his strength was not enough, and his physical fitness was also insufficient. If he was approached by the opponent, it would be a dead end in an absolute sense.

In other words, in Xia Ran's estimation, the so-called parasitic beasts should be monsters whose three-dimensional strength and sensitivity are close to or reach 20 points, so that they can be more confident in close combat with them.

Considering his horrible opening attributes, this game is too unbalanced.

If it wasn't for the fact that the degree of freedom is high enough, you can use various trap tactics and have an advantage in intelligence, it would be more difficult than playing a soul-type game directly, and you only have one life...

Sitting on the seat by the window, Xia Ran looked out of the window at the sea view, blue sky and white clouds, and was rarely in a daze. The nerves that had been tense during the recent period were also faintly relaxed.

After all, he is not the kind of madman born for killing and fighting, nor does he have the mentality of a righteous partner who fights for all mankind in this world.

In a daze, it seemed that even joining the service department had happened a long time ago.

……

……

At the same time, in the alley where Xia Ran committed the murder before, the on-site evidence collection work of relevant prosecutors and police officers is still going on.

"..."

"..."

But even though they were busy, everyone was silent, and an atmosphere of silence and uneasiness was pervading.This kind of quietness is different from the previous working state, but mixed with some kind of alien fear.

No one said a word, and everyone knew it.

Especially when the forensic doctor carefully removed the head of the bloody and charred corpse, all the people who were busy collecting evidence at the scene stopped moving, and some even changed their faces wildly, as if they were about to vomit.

Although the corrosion is severe, it can still be vaguely seen that it is not the head that a normal human should have at all, but long tentacles that seem to be covered with dense teeth and look like peeling frogs.

They are entangled together, forming a ball, and become a human head?

Is this thing originally a monster disguised as a human?Or is there something parasitic in the human body and replacing it?

Especially when the forensic doctor found that the human remains in the stomach had not been fully digested and were exposed due to severe corrosion... Everyone present was not an idiot, and they all felt shuddering at this moment.

It seems that not only the previous cases of minced meat and corpses in the area under their jurisdiction had clues, but also the truth behind those horrible cases all over the world has vaguely surfaced?

They originally thought that this insane phenomenon was caused by some evil religious organization.

But now it seems that the truth is of a more terrifying nature?

"...Have you confirmed the identity of this... this person?"

The police officer leading the team felt that his voice had become hoarse, distorted and distorted, and his tone was trembling slightly.

"Not yet, the documents on her body are seriously damaged, and the face... the face is also unrecognizable, and further confirmation is needed."

"About the murderer... that person's clues, shall we continue to pursue?"

"I'm not sure, this is no longer something we can decide, it has to be reported immediately."

……

……

Xia Ran on the other side got off the boat, arrived at the destination, and then directly searched for the location of Sakurazaki Hospital in the local area.

This time period is probably approaching. The reason why he changed his original plan was because he received a message from the private detective he hired, saying that the family that had drawn his attention suddenly had some changes——

The parents seem to have gone on a trip together, and not long after they left, only their son Quan Xinyi was left at home.

Xia Ran felt that this situation was familiar. After thinking about it for a while, she finally remembered it. It seemed that this was a very critical turning point. The parents of the protagonist in the plot were traveling, and then the mother was killed by a parasitic beast, and the father escaped by chance.

Afterwards, the parasitic beast found the home address and rushed back in order to eradicate the weeds. Although Quan Xinyi received a warning call from his father and Xiaoyou's warning, he saw that the parasitic beast who opened the door and walked in was his "mother" At the time, it still collapsed on the spot.

He dared not and refused to admit the reality, but vented his remorse, pain, and hysterical emotions frantically, turning a blind eye to the words and deeds of the parasitic beast, and must think that the other party was his mother.

In the end, he was pierced through the heart without any resistance...

Then, the high school student named Izumi Shinichi "died", and the one who came back to life had superhuman athletic ability and was able to defeat ordinary parasitic beasts alone, neither crying nor afraid, and calm to the extreme another person.
