488. Drama Queen

'The seventh-tier ritual is indeed very difficult. Despite my best efforts, there were still oversights.'

'Although those photos should be impossible to copy, after all, they are considered "high-level Curio," their value lies in the information they contain; how could they possibly be copied by ordinary means?'

Even if there are only a few copies, and the content is somewhat one-sided, they are still extremely valuable resources in the hands of national institutions.

Professionals can only enter the dream world and comprehend the ' Ancient God ' during their first invocation and subsequent advancements.

The faction that possesses the ' Ancient God Photograph ' essentially gains access to a database!

'What's even more critical is that this database... is from before I 'evolved' it, containing information on [Planeswalker] and a series of other things... Although it's difficult at first, once you get the hang of it, it's still possible to obtain my true professional information, study the Spirit World and dimensions, grow rapidly, and even discover the truth of this universe!'

Sulu looked conflicted. "I knew it... it wouldn't be smooth sailing."

This situation is essentially equivalent to the 'hidden path' he left for himself, which could potentially be obtained by other professionals.

With the backdoors and vulnerabilities of the system plugged, the competition became fairer, but he alone, facing elites from billions of people across various countries and research institutes, was very likely to capsize!

'Luckily... I still have the Attribute Panel to help me cheat, so no one else has that.'

Fortunately, Sulu had prepared more than one way to cheat!

"Who... who are you?"

Robinson pointed at Sulu.

Suddenly, a thin needle appeared behind Sulu's head and pierced his neck.

He screamed and collapsed to the ground.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Robinson burst into laughter. "As an illusionist, you exposed your body to me! Arrogance is your grave!"

He took a few steps forward, squatted down, and said, "I'll cripple your abilities and then take you back... The research institute desperately needs 'materials' like you!"

"And... before that, I'll make you regret ever being born, and you'll spill all the information you know!"

He felt this guy was very mysterious, and if he brought him back, the merit might be even greater than bringing back Cheng Feng and Wang Chaoqun.

"Are you so confident of victory?"

The ' Sulu ' on the ground suddenly laughed, "You have no idea what my power is!"

He stood up, and his body suddenly turned pure white, like a plaster sculpture.

No! No!

Robinson seemed to understand something, and he kept backing away, cold sweat pouring down his forehead. "This is impossible..."

"Nothing is impossible. From the very beginning, you were hypnotized by me."

Sulu's voice came from all directions. "Your eyes are deceiving you, your nose is deceiving you... Everything that humans perceive is ultimately just information and stimulation to the brain... What if your brain betrays you too?"

"This..."

Robinson looked down at his feet.

The phone that he had initially crushed had somehow transformed into a banana!

He was just making a phone call while holding a banana, being played like a monkey by this mysterious person!

Even the world we hear, see, and perceive is an illusion and a deception!

"Is this... the power of a god?"

Robinson collapsed to the ground, watching Sulu approach, and despairingly gave up all resistance.

"No, this is just my most powerful hypnotic technique— 'Brain in a Vat '!"

Sulu's figure slowly disappeared.

[XP+50!]

Sulu looked at the Attribute Panel and walked back to the shop with great satisfaction.

"Big A, you did a good job this time."

He glanced at the Crow that flew down and praised it.

"Thank you... Master!"

A voice, sounding like a parrot mimicking its own words, emanated from the Crow's beak. If an ordinary person heard it, they would probably be terrified, or think they had encountered a ' Crow spirit'!

But Sulu is not surprising at all.

If he's fed this spiritual diet for so long and still hasn't awakened Wisdom, then he might as well just put her in a pot and stew her, so as not to waste her.

"Hmm, I'll allow you to expand your Wisdom subordinates, but they can't all be here with me at once... As for the number, let's set it at seven!"

Today's events led Sulu to decide to expand his entourage. "I need you to monitor this city for me, at least my area. Notify me immediately of any unusual situations."

"Understood, don't worry, Master!"

Big A flapped its wings and flew out of the window.

After sensing the 'hypnotic seed' within its body, Sulu felt reassured and went back to take a shower and go to sleep.

Under the moonlight.

A magnificent black Crow flapped its wings and soon arrived at a nearby park, where it landed on the highest branch of a tree.

"Dumb~"

Accompanied by its caw, two slightly smaller Crow flew over, spread their wings, and lowered their bodies, bowing in a bird-like gesture of submission. "Boss... Boss!"

Slap! Slap!

Big A spread his wings, and one of the birds flapped its wings. "Second A, Third A! You're still too stupid, you can't even speak properly! Now listen to me... Our great master has decreed that we may expand our clan and promote four Wisdom brothers."

"Is... that... so..."

"Very good."

Second A and Third A cried out joyfully.

"Yay~"

Suddenly, dozens of Crow poked their heads out from among the surrounding leaves, flapping their wings and cawing as if in agreement.

Under the cover of night, they all perched on a large tree; if anyone saw them, they would probably terrify an ordinary person.

Even Sulu was unaware that his three bird henchmen had already amassed so many subordinates.

"Yes, we must continue to gather our people. One day, our Crow Clan will rule the entire world... and enslave those foolish humans!"

Big A nodded in satisfaction.

"But... but... Master... Master is also human!" Second A seemed a little hesitant.

"Fool!"

Big A flapped Second A's wing. "How could our great master be human? He is a god! He is the god of our Crow Clan! The father of Wisdom! He has a hundred faces and a thousand forms! He only maintains the foolish human form for convenience, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Second A and Third A nodded repeatedly.

"Very good. First, select five of our brothers to receive Baptism from our great master... Then, according to our great master's orders, we will take control of this city, establish our own Raven Kingdom, and serve our master better!"

"Kingdom... what is that? Is it delicious?" the Third A asked naively.

"Idiot... the kingdom... the kingdom is..."

Big A pointed to the brightly lit city in the distance. "The kingdom will turn that place into our forest, and humans into slaves for us to catch insects to eat!"

"But... bugs... don't taste good, I still... prefer the breadcrumbs they give me."

Third A laughed happily, "I don't have to do anything, and someone feeds me. Do I already have a servant? I'm so happy!"

"You idiot!"

Big A roared, "In short... just listen to me! We're going to establish an organization with the goal of controlling this world and better serving our master! To do that, we have no choice but to reluctantly develop our power among foolish humans... Listen up, next, I want you to find suitable humans to become our servants..."

If Sulu were here, he'd probably be terrified and yell, "No! I didn't! I didn't do it! Hey... don't make a scene out of nothing!"

His hypnotic seed simply made these three extraordinary Crow see him as their master, faithfully complete their mission, and never betray him.

They still have their own thoughts, and he can't completely see through or control them, nor is he bothered to do so.

Sulu never expected that he would raise a Crow with such strong 'subjective initiative', which would even 'add drama' to its own life.
