"Oh my god! A demigod! Julie, do you know him?" After hearing the boy's self-introduction, Xu Heng's heart jumped to his throat. A demigod!

"How is it possible! Krolitz came to my house! Xu Heng, you are such a jinx!" Julie was also extremely shocked. "If he didn't speak, this person is the ultimate spiritual master I mentioned before!"

"Ah! Didn't he disappear?"

"So you are a jinx! I disappeared for such a long time, but I still met you!"

A few days ago I just mentioned some spiritual things and so on, but today I met his grandmaster. No matter who it is, they would feel like they have stepped on a pile of dog shit.

Seeing Xu Heng's complex expression, Krolitz laughed twice and said, "It seems that Julie has told you my origins. In fact, I originally planned to pass on my faction to her, but I didn't expect that the old man Time's doll killed her and only a trace of her soul was left. That's why I had no choice but to come here now..."

"See! He's looking for you! You unlucky guy! Wait...how could he find you? Do you have a backup plan?" Xu Heng was about to mock Julie and vent his panic, but he realized something was wrong.

"A back-up plan? I'm bound by you now, how could I have the idea of ​​betraying you? I haven't even met Krolitz!" Julie retorted.

"Tsk, you two still have the time to quarrel in front of me?" The boy's voice was suddenly harsh, which frightened Xu Heng and Julie at the same time.

It's over! This guy can hear their encrypted communication!

"I am a demigod of the spiritual system. It is not difficult to hear the communication between your souls. Each of you is just a drop of water in the spiritual ocean of this world. It is easy for me to know your inner thoughts and find the remaining traces of you in the world." Somehow, Krolitz explained himself.

At the same time, it also answered their doubts in secret - how did he find them?

"According to what you said, as long as we still have consciousness, you can find us through here?" Julie stopped pretending and spoke through Xu Heng's mind.

"Well, you are worthy of being my colleague who studies the essence of the soul. You understand it quickly." Krolitz said admiringly, "I was really surprised that you could be killed. But then I heard that the little kid took in a servant, so I wondered if there was something fishy about it..."

Then, Krolitz's venomous eyes stared at Xu Heng, making Xu Heng sweat coldly and look away.

"Sure enough, today I came to see you. Not only did you enslave the Soul Weaver, but you were also not affected by my mental interference." Krolitz's voice was full of appreciation. "Originally, I thought that if I gave the inheritance to Julie, who studies the inner soul differently from me, maybe she could discover something new. But now, maybe you, Boss Xu, are more suitable. What do you think? Are you willing to be my apprentice?"

Something needs to be explained here. The relationship between the mental system and the soul system is actually the same. The mental system attacks people's feelings and emotions and uses them as weapons. It is a branch of illusion, and illusion is to create sensory illusions for the person being treated to achieve the effect of confusion or even physical stress.

People from the other world divide all human feelings towards the external world into the functions of the soul, so it is said that the spiritual system is the study of appearances.

The soul system directly affects the soul, so mages academically call it the study of the inner self.

It is not difficult to understand why Krolitz thought of Julie as the first candidate for successor, because the two are basically related, one studying biology and the other studying chemistry.

"Well, isn't this coming for you?" After knowing Krolitz's real intention, Julie began to gloat again.

Then he changed his mind and forgot! He could be heard by Krolitz, so he said seriously: "Krolitz, why did you want me to be the successor? Can't you take away my achievements? Or cooperate with me? And, what makes you think that this stupid guy is more suitable to be your apprentice than me?"

Although Julie is a remnant soul now, she has experienced many storms after all. She quickly asked back a few questions. At least according to Krolitz's words, Xu Heng's life would not be harmed for the time being. She still wanted to try to negotiate.

"That's the question he asked." Xu Heng blurted out. He could hear it anyway, so he just said it with his mouth, "The question is what he called mental interference, that is, testing..."

"Smart, Boss Xu, I like you more and more, otherwise I wouldn't explain so much to you. I like smart people like you. If you couldn't answer at that time, I could use the questions to affect your mind, and then control you and free Julie," Krolitz smiled even brighter.

This additional answer also made Xu Heng feel a little pressured. It turned out that he had almost fallen into the trap a long time ago!

Krolitz continued, "As for the question raised by the Soul Weaver, I will give you a courtesy and answer it. The reason why I want to find a successor is because I can no longer make any progress, even if I get your knowledge. The reason is probably related to two hundred years ago, but I can't tell you for now."

"Two hundred years ago?... Aren't you afraid of being hunted down if you show up now?" Julie did not ask Xu Heng to agree, but continued to ask. She changed the subject quickly because Julie felt that Krolitz might have been seriously injured.

Two hundred years ago, there was the War of Nations. At that time, wasn't Krollitz wanted by the whole world?

"Hunting? Humph, if we really have to fight, I will kill him even if it's the God of Destiny!" Krolitz's face changed, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes. "Julie, you shouldn't ask so many questions... Xu Heng, how about it? Become my apprentice, and I guarantee that your path to becoming a demigod will be smooth, and you don't have to be afraid of anyone, including gods!"

If it were someone else, they would have agreed long ago, but Xu Heng hesitated.

The first is that Krolitz is too much of a mystery man. What he said was confusing, like the path to demigod and so on. To be honest, Xu Heng was not that interested. He also always felt that Krolitz's purpose was not that simple.

The second is that he didn't know if following Krolitz could exchange for other values ​​like Vivian did.

The third question, of course, is how Vivian should deal with it. If she really wants to be Krolitz's apprentice, I wonder what Vivian will think. Will Krolitz take her away?

Fourth, the soul form of Krollitz, who is obviously a demigod, why is it all white mist? Is it shielded? This needs to be considered.

Fifth, Xu Heng doesn't like Krolitz because he used other people to threaten him, which touched his bottom line. It may sound childish, but if you think about it carefully, if you threaten him for the first time, there will be a second time. What if he gets on board and is threatened by him to do beastly things in the future?

"Do I...do I have the room to refuse?" Xu Heng asked tentatively.

"Refuse? Why should you refuse?...Oh, you are still Vivian's slave now, right? Don't worry, I can help you deal with her and force her to release you. I can also give you whatever you want!" Krolitz was very puzzled. He stood up from the chair and looked directly at Xu Heng and said.

Abnormal, too abnormal...the conditions offered are too favorable.

I can’t discuss this with Julie yet, because I’ll hear…

He himself was not bound by Vivian's soul, but he was unwilling to tell this secret to the unpredictable man in front of him, and he didn't want Vivian to come over.

Force Vivian? That means it is possible to subdue her, and if he can subdue her, he can also kill her. Vivian's enemy may not be without him.

From the logic of language, Xu Heng noticed that if Krolitz was really not afraid of Vivian, why didn't he let himself call for help at the beginning?

"Force Vivian? How can you force her? She is a time and space system!" Julie played a supporting role at this time. She should have noticed the abnormality.

This is a psychological warfare that is fought secretly.

"Shut up! Soul Weaver, I've given you enough face!" Krolitz said angrily, then changed his tone and said to Xu Heng calmly: "Boss Xu, as long as you call Vivian now, I can easily knock her down as soon as she comes! Don't believe it? You can try it now!"

The male succubus's emotional perception became invalid the moment Krolitz came in, and it was difficult for Xu Heng to determine what was implied in his words.

But ability is never what Xu Heng relies on, logic and speculation are!

He said "call Vivian" over, does that mean that Krolitz didn't dare to go find Vivian, because he said that as long as he was conscious, he could find her, so he could only let Vivian come here.

Combined with the fact that he previously stopped himself from calling Vivian immediately, he further ruled out the possibility that he was simply "too lazy to look for Vivian".

Then it can be inferred that this place may be more beneficial to Krolitz!

Xu Heng didn't dare to gamble. He didn't want to reject Krolitz outright, which might anger him and make him kill himself and everyone present. He also didn't want to tell him the secret of his soul, and he didn't want to call Vivian, causing her to be in danger or even die.

Because no matter what, Vivian was good to me, and it was reasonable that she saved my life.

Three tangles, no one can let go!

There was no way out now. Even if he agreed, Krolitz would insist on asking him to call Vivian over.

Who would let their heirs become slaves of others? What if someone takes advantage of this and catches hold of them?

Damn it! Dead end!

Xu Heng was silent, a horrible silence.

He didn't want anyone to get hurt, but right now, he couldn't do it!

Even in the trolley problem, he can choose to sacrifice himself, or not pull the lever and let others die freely - because he has no ability to decide the life or death of others, and once he pulls the lever, part of the responsibility for the death will be his, and if he doesn't pull it, the responsibility will only be the criminal who caused all this.

But every choice that Krolitz made, whether overtly or covertly, revolved around Xu Heng himself, and was related to him. No matter what choice he made, he was responsible! And people were targeting him. In other words, if it wasn't for him, none of this would have happened!

You can't choose to sacrifice yourself!

If I hadn't given him that bowl of rice! If I hadn't answered that question seriously! I might have been the only one who died! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

The brain is in a storm.

What if I negotiate with him and don't let him kill Vivian?

As soon as he thought about it, Xu Heng felt that he was childish. What right did he have to talk? Even if he killed Vivian, what would happen if he was angry? Not only could he threaten him with others, but he could also control him mentally!

He had no doubt that Krollitz had the tough means.

The one standing opposite him now is an elephant, and he is an ant, with no room for maneuver.

"Oh, Boss Xu, you have so many little thoughts! Your spiritual trends are one of the most complex and changeable I have ever seen... Oh, let me help you make a quick decision!" Krolitz saw that Xu Heng was silent, hesitant and embarrassed, and became impatient. "She seems to be very important to you too?"

The next moment, Krolitz walked to Clara's side, and before Xu Heng could react, he grabbed her neck and lifted her up. Clara then seemed to be released from some state. She began to move and then struggled violently, but seemed to have no strength. Only her legs moved, but she could not lift her hands.

"Don't! Don't touch her! There is still a mark on my soul! I can't betray Vivian! Yes! I can't!" Seeing this, Xu Heng hurriedly stopped him loudly. He didn't know where he got the courage from, but he ran up and grabbed Krolitz's hand, but he couldn't move it at all.

"Boss Xu, are you stupid or am I? You can enslave Julie, how can I still feel the mark on your soul? I am just helping you solve the big trouble of Vivian! What are you hesitating about! Could it be that you really like her? Or do you have some other secrets?" Krolitz turned his head and looked at him as if he was looking at a demented idiot.

Seeing through it, being seen through completely, Krolitz is no fool.

Although his actions revealed that he was still very afraid of Vivian and was afraid that if he took Xu Heng away directly, Vivian would retaliate, it also reflected his temptation of Xu Heng.

Xu Heng was always hesitant. It was obvious that everything could be agreed to very easily, but he hesitated. This made Krolitz suspicious of Xu Heng.

He was hiding something, and it was because of this concealment that he didn't dare to use force directly on Xu Heng. Why?

Because Julie might have been fooled by some special abilities of Xu Heng!

Both sides are old foxes. Xu Heng knows that Krolitz has seen through his underwear, but the opponent is now in the initiative!

"Woo woo—" Clara was lifted up, her face becoming increasingly livid from being pinched. Xu Heng had no bargaining chips left, but he still had one last chance to take a risk!

This is his last chance! It is a chance that only he can have!

"Krolitz! What are you looking for! What are you wondering about! The truth is not something you can escape from! It will become as confused and unknowable as you!" Xu Heng shouted with determination and a gambling mentality.

With a "click", Krolitz suddenly loosened his hand that was pinching Clara's neck. She fell to the ground and began to cough and exhale violently. It would take some time before she suffocated, after all, she was a sixth-level warrior.

This was also the tiny bit of time that Xu Heng dared to take a gamble on.

What is most needed in psychological warfare and decision-making is time. Every breath, every thought, every thought can reveal a person's character and intelligence.

In the original world, many people say that playing games is the most challenging part of a person's character. This is because games often require people to make a large number of decisions and think and react in a short period of time. Supporting these are a large amount of experience and rigorous logic - otherwise, why do people say that games are good for the human brain?

Many wealthy people go to auction houses for the items, or perhaps for the pleasure of gambling with other auctioneers in a short period of time while the host is counting down...

Krolitz turned around in surprise and shock and looked at Xu Heng, who was a head shorter than him.

Xu Heng at this moment was completely different from before. He held his head high and chest out, with the confidence of having won a big gamble and a certain sense of indifference that came from within.

This was the second time that Krolitz had seen this kind of indifference. The first time was when Xu Heng was discussing "perfect falsification" with him.

This is a cruel temperament that is revealed by a person who is in his own field and his own ideological position, excluding other emotions and focusing only on the truth. This is the temperament of a person called a "rationalist."

It's just like a sentimental person would regard the doll that he keeps beside him all year round as a symbol of his emotions, but to people like Xu Heng, the doll is just a cotton filling.

Is this your true face?

Krolitz looked at the fourth-level ant in front of him, who was so panic-stricken and in a dilemma, and became cautious and admiring.

Because this man named Xu Heng also saw through himself.

This game was actually tied by this guy who had almost no chips!

However, its premise is that Krolitz slightly evens the situation out of the unfair situation where he knows that Xu Heng may have a secret, while Xu Heng knows almost nothing about his underwear.

No matter what happens today, I must accept him as my disciple!

Krollitz made up his mind.
