Chapter 333 Developing New Abilities

Because the Phantom Troupe took away the replica of the crown, Biscuit was unable to get the jewel on the crown as she wished.

But her preparations to prove that the crown was a replica did not fall through.

With the confidence of having the real thing in hand, she quickly proved from multiple aspects that the "End of the Monka Expedition" at the museum exchange meeting was a replica.

And she also revealed that the real thing was in Netero's hands.

So -

Countless media, like sharks smelling blood, rushed to Netero.

Many top collectors who are not short of money are trying to contact Netero.

If Netero could hear Moyu's psychological activities at this moment, he would definitely hold a straw close to Moyu's ear, and then control his voice and shout: It's annoying.

It is precisely because he gave "The End of the Monka Expedition" to Netero for safekeeping that Moyu has always been relieved.

Now hearing Menqi's reminder, Moyu is really considering whether to sell "The End of the Monka Expedition" first.

However, Moyu has now received the bounty from the Phantom Troupe. After deducting taxes and adding the original money, his current assets have reached more than 4 billion. He will not be short of money in the short term, so he is not so eager to sell the crown.

The most important thing is...

Moyu thinks that he can let Netero keep "The End of the Monka Expedition" and "The King's Scale" for free until he wants to get rid of these two things.

Or -

If Netero is willing, Moyu would rather use Netero's name to sell these two things.

Presumably, no buyer dares to calculate Netero, so it should be possible to sell them at a price close to the upper limit.

As Moyu's thoughts turned, he suddenly had the urge to call Netero.

But he could only think about it.

Based on his understanding of Netero...

If Netero agreed without hesitation, he would have to be mentally prepared for a setback.

"There's no rush for the crown. President Netero will take care of it anyway, so there's nothing to worry about."

After thinking for a while, Moyu decided to put aside the crown for the time being and focus on attacking "One Star".

The current target is the A-level criminal group, the Erimo Thieves Group.

Since this criminal group has been very active recently, it is easy to find out the other party's movements and location.

Menqi has always been a follower of the crowd, so she will naturally follow any decision of Moyu.

What she is focusing on now is not only to improve her actual combat ability, but also to think about whether her own mind ability can play a role in actual combat, rather than only using the release type of mind bullets to fight.

Xiaodi looked at Moyu quietly.

As an amateur bounty hunter who has not yet officially debuted, even if it has been confirmed that the target is a criminal group of the same level as the Phantom Troupe, there is no fluctuation in her heart.

Just when she heard Moyu's opinion on the handling of the crown, she couldn't help but think of the "Black Widow's Tears" necklace she carried with her.

This necklace inlaid with tear-shaped black gemstones was stolen from the B-level wanted criminal Shuangyi.

It was also because of this necklace that she was able to meet Moyu in that hotel.

The reason why she stole the necklace from Shuangyi at that time was simply because she thought it was very beautiful. As for how much it was worth, she never cared about such things.

Maybe the novelty has worn off...

Xiaodi cares less and less about this necklace. It is estimated that after a while, she will forget the existence of this necklace and accidentally lose it, or after it is collected in the body of the "bulgy-eyed fish", the necklace will disappear forever because of forgetfulness.

Now.

Xiaodi thinks that instead of keeping the "Black Widow's Tears" necklace, it is better to let Moyu sell it directly.

But then seeing that Moyu temporarily gave up dealing with the crown, Xiaodi also gave up the idea of ​​giving the "Black Widow's Tears" to Moyu to sell.

After deciding to hunt the Erimo Thief Group, Moyu was not in a hurry to act.

As a hunter who likes to take the initiative in his hands, collecting intelligence before taking action is the most basic quality.

Besides, we need to confirm the movements of the Erimo Thief Group.

Late at night.

Moyu sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind sinking into the consciousness space, staring at the emotional fragments representing "illusion".

Currently, with the ability materials of "Memory Capacity +2" and "Oath Effect +1", and the emotional fragments of the thought of afterlife as the basis, it is not difficult to develop a new ability.

But the problem is that in order to make the developed ability meet expectations as much as possible, everything must be imagined in advance, and then carefully construct each step.

Otherwise, if the developed ability does not meet expectations, it will only waste its own upper limit.

"The prerequisite for activating the illusion ability is to parasitize the black mycelium on the target, but if you want to develop an ability similar to the Mirror Flower and Water Moon, even if there is a 'Pledge Effect +1' to support it, this activation condition alone is not enough."

"In order to improve the depth and strength of the ability, it is necessary to set strict restrictions on the 'activation conditions'."

"Just like Kuroro's Thief Ultimate, so many restrictions are set, on the one hand to create the ability to 'plunder others' abilities', and on the other hand to be able to use the plundered abilities freely."

"If I really want to give the 'illusion' ability to the black knife, then how should I set the restrictions..."

Moyu thought seriously.

In addition to the condition of "parasitic black mycelium", he plans to set 1~2 more activation conditions.

For example, after the black mycelium parasitism condition is achieved, a certain degree of "time" is required for the mycelium to grow, so as to officially activate the ability.

On the premise of this activation condition, you can set conditions such as causing the target's emotions to fluctuate violently to accelerate the growth of mycelium.

Or use the "secondary parasitism" method to speed up the activation of the ability.

Moyu even thought of starting with the shadow of the target, but this condition is too easy and it is difficult to use it as a constraint condition for building an ability system.

In addition to the constraints of "effective time" and "accelerated growth", Moyu also thought of starting with "solutions".

For example, after the target is hit by the ability of Mirror Flower Water Moon, the black mycelium parasitic in the body can be eliminated by closing the sperm hole and entering "absolute", thereby directly removing the ability of Mirror Flower Water Moon.

Usually, as long as the information is not leaked, the Nen ability user will not easily enter the "absolute" state in a fierce battle.

And this weakening condition should be able to greatly enhance the strength of the ability itself.

After all, the method of removing the ability is too simple, and then comparing the difficulty of achieving the conditions, it can basically be exchanged for a very powerful oath effect.

"Mycelium parasitism... must be done by the method of 'direct killing'. Only in this way can the mycelium be sent in while breaking the target's mind defense."

Moyu slowly opened his eyes and said to himself: "It doesn't need a big wound, even if it's just a small cut. If it can be more perfect, it will be effective against the reinforcement system."

Among all the systems, Moyu hates the reinforcement system the most.

Even if he has the "Godspeed" release attack that can greatly enhance the offensive ability, he still hates the reinforcement system.

Because he has personally experienced it in the battle of the museum exchange event.

Even if he can get the opportunity to use the "Godspeed" attack in a battle that cannot take a breath, the reinforcement system ability users such as Finks can use the basic attack and defense power in a hurry to reduce the damage.

Not to mention a type like Kangzai who has both the offensive and defensive power of the reinforcement system and the self-healing power...

Unless Kangzai can be killed in one fell swoop or severely injured, no matter how many times Moyu shoots "Godspeed", it will not change the situation.

The result that awaits him is that Kangzai will use the high error tolerance brought by the offensive and defensive power and self-healing power to forcibly consume all his potential.

But now if he can develop the ability of "Mirror Flower Water Moon" according to the existing ideas, then he will have a kind of cannibalization type ability that can target the reinforcement system silently.

If used properly...

It can basically play a good effect against any type of Nen ability user.

In the final analysis-

The moment the illusion ability is successfully activated is equivalent to a one-hit kill of the operation system.

Although the opponent can use "Absolute" to remove the ability of Mirror Flower Water Moon, being in the state of "Absolute" is equivalent to giving Moyu a chance to kill the opponent.

"It should be okay."

Moyu sorted out his thoughts just now.

The black mycelium is parasitized into the target's body in a direct killing manner to complete the preliminary conditions before activating the ability.

However, in order to reduce the probability of the target noticing something unusual, the black mycelium must be set to an "invisible" state.

This requires more constraints, but Moyu can use the existing "Pledge Effect +1" to complete this setting.

After that, it is the "growth time" and "acceleration time" of the mycelium.

Five minutes.

This is the ideal time for the mycelium to grow and officially activate the ability in Moyu's opinion.

Of course, the longer this time is set, the better the effect of the ability will be.

But in an extremely fierce battle, sometimes even "one second" can bring various changes and possibilities.

So if the time to activate the ability is too long, it may tie your feet.

In addition, there are ways such as secondary parasitism and accelerated growth that use the target's violently fluctuating emotions as nutrients.

Moyu thinks that setting the initial time to "five minutes" is acceptable.

After roughly confirming the ideas and directions, the prototype of Jinghua Shuiyue's ability was basically born.

Create wounds → implant black mycelium → five minutes of growth → speed up growth → formal activation of ability → complete control.

Moyu raised his hand to his chin.

Although he had confirmed the direction, he did not rush to lay the foundation of the ability.

"For me, the advantage of Mirror Flower and Water Moon is that it is a rule-based ability, so whether it is the initial activation conditions of the ability or the formal activation of the ability, it will not occupy too much manifestation of the amount of gas."

Moyu's eyes were thoughtful.

Materialize the black knife and camouflage shadow clone.

These two abilities will occupy a certain amount of Moyu's manifestation of gas.

Therefore, during the duration of Moyu's activation of these two abilities, the amount of manifestation that he can mobilize is actually far less than that of a normal Nen ability user.

And too little manifestation of gas also means that the offensive and defensive power of Nen will decrease, which will increase the risk of close combat invisibly.

Under such conditions, if another Nen ability is developed, I am afraid there will not be enough manifestation of gas to support the newly developed third Nen ability.

This is the disadvantage of using multiple abilities at the same time.

If it weren't for the previous "Numaman Incident" that allowed Moyu to increase the strength of his shadow clones...

Then the pressure from "manifesting energy" that Moyu would have to face would be even greater!

So——

Rule-type abilities such as Mirror Flower and Water Moon, which can use a small amount of manifested energy to activate effects, are more suitable for Moyu's current situation.

More importantly, the upper limit of manifested energy is different from Nen skills. It is more difficult to improve as time goes by.

A Nen user who has entered the Nen world for ten years may not be as good as a Nen user who has entered the Nen world for less than a year due to talent problems.

But in terms of manifesting energy, the ten-year Nen user definitely has an absolute leading advantage.

Moyu's tactical ability and awareness are probably already at the "A-level" level.

On the contrary, manifesting energy and potential energy, as well as advanced Nen skills such as "hard" and "flow", are still a long way from the "A-level" that represents the first-class level.

Moyu had previously given up his daily sword-wielding training just to free up more time to improve these things.

"Developing the Mirror Flower and Water Moon will use up one memory capacity, one oath effect, and one emotional fragment with the 'illusion attribute'."

Moyu raised his hand and materialized the black knife, his eyes flashing.

"Then there is still one memory capacity and one emotional fragment with the 'decay' attribute left. In theory, another kind of mind ability can be developed, but my existing 'CPU' can't handle it at all, so I won't consider it for the time being."

Moyu stared at the black knife that had no aesthetic sense at all, imagining the scene of the Mirror Flower and Water Moon blooming on this blade in the future.

Suddenly——

Moyu's mind flashed through the puppet of the shadow that could replicate the original owner's mind ability.

At that time, the Hundred-style Guanyin played by the Netero puppet was certainly far inferior to the original, but it did leave Moyu with a very deep impression.

"By the way..."

Moyu had a flash of inspiration, controlling the shadow to switch to a three-dimensional state, and then mimicking into Hisoka Honso.

The current shadow clone can only perfectly mimic the appearance of itself and Hisoka.

If you want to add a new mimic image, you have to consume memory capacity.

After all, the shadow clone is essentially a complete entity and cannot be compared with Mo Laowu's Purple Smoke Fist ability.

"Is there a possibility..."

Taking the possibility of the ability of the face shadow, Mo Yu stared at Hisoka's face, and a whimsical idea emerged in his mind.

Hisoka--

Can it simulate the ability of the original body?
