Chapter 99: Science is also important in the magic world
Lu Zhenghe carefully looked in the direction of the campfire again, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no one was following him. Then he quickly took out an instrument with a flashing red light and buried it under the tree.
Afterwards, Lu Zhenghe looked around furtively, and then pretended to urinate and unbuckled his belt.
Mo Fan thought to himself that there was indeed something wrong with Lu Zhenghe, but he did not expose the matter directly. Instead, he returned to the camp and subconsciously glanced at Xu Fan's tent, intending to tell Xu Fan about this matter quietly the next day.
"You went to pee too?"
Zhao Manyan said with a look of resentment. He felt that Mo Fan was not a good friend enough for not inviting him to join them.
Now that both of them have solved their personal problems, it would be inconvenient for him to go deep into the wild to relieve himself.
"Well, if it's convenient for you later, I can accompany you!"
Mo Fan understood what Zhao Manyan meant, and Zhao Manyan started to laugh, calling Mo Fan a good brother.
Early the next morning, while everyone was still eating, Mo Fan quietly came to Xu Fan's side.
"Anything discovered?"
Xu Fan glanced at Mo Fan and ate the food in his hand in two or three bites.
"It seems that some special instrument is buried. I have memorized the location. Do you want to dig it out?"
Mo Fan asked, Lu Zhenghe was really a scumbag, he relieved himself right where he buried the things, which made it really inconvenient for him to dig it up.
"No need. This guy has no good intentions. At most, he can call in a team of high-level mages. As long as you don't get separated from Mu Ningxue and me, there's nothing to worry about!"
Xu Fan said lightly, and the two of them glanced at Lu Zhenghe. Lu Zhenghe looked guilty at this moment and refused to raise his head.
"I can rest assured that!"
Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief. With Xu Fan as a guide, he also wanted to see what Lu Zhenghe was up to.
After packing up their things, everyone started to move forward again. As long as they did not go into places like tunnels or caves along the railway tracks, the occasional slave-level monsters they encountered posed no threat to the group of mid-level mages.
Mo Fan also came to the end of the team at Xu Fan's reminder. The two of them fell a few steps behind and started discussing again.
Mo Fan was also confused and had no idea why Xu Fan called him.
After careful consideration, Xu Fan decided to ask Mo Fan about his decision. After all, going through the Demon System and then becoming the Evil Saint King was the path he should take. Without the Demon System, Mo Fan might not be able to reach that level in the end.
"Actually, I have some guesses about Lu Zhenghe's plan!"
Xu Fan said this quietly to Mo Fan, and only the two of them could hear it.
"What is it? Can we disrupt his plans in advance?"
Mo Fan's heart moved. It is better to have less trouble than more. What's more, they are in the wild. Even if Xu Fan is there, he is afraid that Xu Fan will have an accident!
"Remember the battle we encountered when we were riding the train? The one fighting the Hunter King was actually a possessed magician!"
Xu Fan paused for a moment and revealed the information about the demon system to Mo Fan.
"Such a thing can happen!"
Mo Fan was shocked for a whole day. This kind of research experiment to demonize humans was comparable to the Black Church.
"The reason why the demon test subjects went out of control was that they didn't have enough mental power to control the sudden surge of magic power. The mental power of ordinary mages is not much different, and the mental power increase brought by each magic system is limited!" "But now an accident has occurred. Someone has a natural talent of dual systems. Logically speaking, the magic system should also have double the mental power!"
Xu Fan raised his eyes and looked at Mo Fan. Mo Fan's heart tightened and his steps slowed down.
"You mean, the other party is coming for me?"
Mo Fan laughed dryly twice, and suddenly felt that his life was in danger.
"No, maybe I have a role to play, but I am a high-level mage, and a natural dual-system high-level mage. In comparison, I may be a little tricky, but you are a mid-level mage, it's different. Two high-level mages can easily defeat you!"
Xu Fan smiled and glanced at Mo Fan who looked constipated. Mo Fan immediately laughed awkwardly.
"Why don't we destroy all the equipment that Lu Zhenghe buried, so that the enemy won't come after us!"
Mo Fan felt his scalp tingling at the thought of being targeted by a group of lunatics. He didn't want to become a guinea pig for research.
"It's easy to be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. Instead of living in fear all the time, it's better to lure the snake out of its hole and crush the other party's conspiracy in one fell swoop!"
"Although this demon experiment is not a good thing, this demon system is a good thing. It can maximize the potential of the human body. It is simply a desperate good thing!"
Xu Fan said with a look of disappointment.
"Having a sword and not using it are two different things!"
Hearing this, Mo Fan's eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, isn't this incarnation of a demon a double-edged sword that hurts both you and others? But since he was almost killed, why would he care about the side effects? He should just go for it!
"Brother Xu! I want that relic!"
Mo Fan said excitedly, and Xu Fan couldn't help but laugh. Is he so excited? This is just the beginning. If he said that the side effects could be eliminated, Mo Fan would be so proud!
"And the side effects of the demon system are not impossible to eliminate. The reason why other people died so quickly is because their potential was fully developed and soon exhausted!"
"But you can definitely withstand the most violent backlash at the beginning with your natural dual-system foundation! And the rest will be easy!"
Xu Fan thought of some reports on demon experiments that he suddenly received two days ago. It was obvious that someone had known that Lu Nian was going to attack them and reminded him specifically.
"Mo Fan, do you still remember the law of conservation of energy?"
Xu Fan smiled and said that he felt a little nostalgic when talking about the knowledge in the scientific world.
"Of course! Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another or transferred from one object to another, while the total amount of energy remains the same."
As a top student who pretends to be a pig but actually eats the tiger, Mo Fan naturally remembers all of this very clearly.
"I understand! What you mean is that since we have borrowed energy from the devil, we just need to return the energy before the devil's punishment comes!"
Mo Fan understood what Xu Fan meant immediately, but soon frowned again.
"But where is the energy to pay off the devil's debt?"
Mo Fan sighed.
"The price of power is life, but it doesn't have to be your life!"
Xu Fan glanced at the loach pendant on Mo Fan's chest, and an idea suddenly came to Mo Fan's mind.
It's the spirit!
