Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1649 - 738: Silence (Part 2)
Previously on Online: I Can See Health Bars...
But before these insects could show aggression, Ding Hui slapped them into mush and poured them into Qian Guxing’s mouth.
The method was simple and crude, no different from that of a doctor prescribing medicine for years...
Like Fang Yu, Chen Yunyun, who couldn’t understand what was happening, was quite interested in the weakly trembling tumor on the ground.
"Mrs. Diao, what is this thing?"
She reached out and poked the tumor, making it shrink into a ball and shiver.
Fang Yu:...
What thing?
This is a human!
A living person...
Just not looking much like a human at the moment...
Fang Yu awkwardly remained silent, but Ding Hui spoke without turning her head.
"It’s a little toy I researched. If Lord Yunyun likes it, I’ll make one for you later."
Full of empty promises!
Can you actually make another one?
Uh...
Not necessarily...
Fang Yu started to feel uncertain because he really couldn’t be sure if Ding Hui had the ability to make another Song Xi...
Fortunately, Chen Yunyun was merely curious, and seeing the slightly disgusting appearance of the tumor, she shook her head slightly.
"Never mind, I was just asking. No need to trouble Mrs. Diao."
At this point, Ding Hui seemed to be done checking and resonated the ring on her finger, guiding the long worm out.
As soon as that long worm crawled out of Qian Guxing’s mouth, Ding Hui reached out and pinched the worm’s head, directly pulling it out.
She then used her left thumb to rotate the rings on her right fingers one round.
Buzz buzz.
The surface of the rings turned out dense little blades, and Ding Hui sliced the worm’s head.
Slice!!
The worm’s head was severed, twitching and curling into a small meat-colored ball.
The wound of the long worm sprayed blood wildly.
Ding Hui brought out a prepared cup, collecting the blood while stuffing the small meatball back into the tumor.
It seems this thing can regenerate and be reused multiple times?
Ding Hui had far too many bizarre methods, most of which Fang Yu couldn’t understand.
But one thing was certain to Fang Yu.
Ding Hui always brings the result he desires.
No matter what operations Ding Hui does in between, the final result always aligns with the predetermined goal. Fang Yu just lacked the insight to understand the process.
Sure enough, as Ding Hui wobbled the blood in the cup slightly, she spoke.
"The blood has changed, containing several new components, but I haven’t completely restored it..."
Staring intently at the blood in the cup, Ding Hui frowned and added some powder, shaking the cup again.
The blood in the cup began to bubble, boiling vigorously, and soon dried to the bottom.
Ding Hui was in deep thought, so deep that she didn’t notice those little bugs biting through Qian Guxing’s skin and burrowing out from places like her shoulder and chest.
"Ding Hui!"
Fang Yu reminded.
"Shh!"
Ding Hui was still pondering, and those little bugs seemed to hold grudges, crawling towards Ding Hui like vengeful creatures.
But...
Step!
Ding Hui lifted her foot and squashed the approaching bugs into mush.
"I currently have several theories."
"First, Qian Guxing is a Spirit Slave, an unawakened Spirit Slave, always a Spirit Slave, prepared from birth to become one."
"Second, Qian Guxing’s lineage is the Spirit Slave lineage, including her father Qian Guyue, her ancestors, and even her great-grandfather, all with Spirit Slave bloodline, waiting their entire lives for the Spirit Master’s appearance."
"Third, Qian Guxing is not a Spirit Slave but was artificially transformed into one."
Ding Hui laughed and looked at Fang Yu.
"Which guess do you prefer, darling?"
Fang Yu shook his head.
"I am more concerned about whether you have a way to restore her to her original state."
Chen Yunyun was curious and asked.
"Is there any difference between the first and second guess?"
The corners of Ding Hui’s mouth slightly lifted; clearly, she enjoyed being asked these questions.
"The first guess indicates that Qian Guxing alone is an unclaimed Spirit Slave."
"The second guess means that everyone of Qian Guxing’s bloodline is a Spirit Slave."
"The biggest difference between the two is the quantity."
"The former means Hei Ningyu came specifically for Qian Guxing, making her special, unique, and distinctive!"
"While the latter indicates Hei Ningyu sent people to gather unclaimed Spirit Slaves with related bloodlines nearby."
"A big move will leave traces, making it easier to deduce what the real intention is. It also makes it easier to figure out whether Qian Guxing or her bloodline is more important."
Of course, Chen Yunyun understood Ding Hui’s meaning.
She frowned slightly.
"I can help by having the checkpoints pay attention to such messages. Anyone wanting to return from the frontier must pass through our Sui Chong Pass!"
Ding Hui smiled and said, "Then thank you in advance, Lord Yunyun, for your attention."
"Letting Young Master Diao accompany us on this life-and-death risk is indeed a big deal. Helping you in this little matter is insignificant in comparison."
They continued exchanging pleasantries.
Fang Yu frowned.
"What about the third guess, in case... Qian Guxing is innocent and has nothing to do with Spirit Slaves!"
Ding Hui’s gaze fixed straight into Fang Yu’s eyes.
"Then it gets interesting."
"You already know, the Demon Sword is an ancient artifact. Due to its extinction, once lost, it can’t be remade."
"And Spirit Slaves follow similar logic. If one dies, there is one less. Their codes are unique."
"Yet now... someone can create Spirit Slaves! Not by heredity but by forcibly turning ordinary humans into Spirit Slaves who completely obey the Spirit Master!"
"This implies what could happen and what might happen; you should be able to imagine."
"The guy who mastered this technology and has already applied it... whoever he is must have immense ambitions! Even Hei Ningyu might be just a pawn without the qualifications to be the mastermind!"
Fang Yu felt... Ding Hui was exaggerating and overthinking.
If it were true that anyone could be turned into a Spirit Slave and into obedient pawns... then chaos would reign over the world.
You could randomly turn people into Spirit Slaves, upgrade Hundred Blood Battle Power individuals into Thousand Blood Combat Power Spirit Slaves, all of whom absolutely obey orders, effectively forging an army.
Regardless of the quality, the mere capability for mass production and absolute obedience without fleeing is sufficiently overwhelming.
Weak villages would get turned into Spirit Slaves, slowly consuming other villages and towns until eventually surrounding Royal City, engulfing the Great Xia...
Fang Yu came back to his senses, feeling himself swept into Ding Hui’s wild imagination.
This is impossible!
Demon Sword technology has been lost; what premise allows Spirit Slave mass production?
Previous bloodline assumptions were already outrageous, let alone artificial transformation and mass production...
However... if such a person exists and is responsible for Qian Guxing’s current state...
Fang Yu’s gaze turned slightly cold.
He would kill, kill this nonexistent person, absolutely!
"...I quite hope for the third guess. If such a person exists... I’d like to meet them! To deeply discuss this technology!"
Ding Hui’s voice brought Fang Yu’s thoughts back.
Seeing Ding Hui’s eager excitement, Fang Yu gave her a blank look.
"Stop thinking nonsense. Tell me plainly, is there any hope for Qian Guxing?"
"More research over a few days is needed for a conclusion, but... don’t hold too much hope. Once a Spirit Slave has a Spirit Master, all ties with the past are severed; they’re permanently just a Spirit Slave."
