Chapter 2: All According To Plan

The next morning, just after daybreak, Nan Fusheng got up and got dressed. Today was the day of enrollment. He would officially enter Hongshan College, and the Soul Master Class, beginning his study career of at least nine years in the future.

According to the regulations of the Sun-Moon Federation, both primary colleges and secondary colleges are free compulsory education, with primary colleges teaching for three years and secondary colleges for six years.

There are several ways to get into a higher education institution. You can either get in with excellent grades or spend a lot of money to get in. Alternatively, you can go to some technical colleges to learn a skill.

"I didn't expect that after traveling through time, I would have to go through nine years of compulsory education. However, I have to start playing my own role from now on, otherwise it will be difficult to get familiar with the protagonist."

Next door, Tang Ziran had just taken Tang Wulin out when she heard a roar from next door, "Get out of here as soon as possible. Why did I give birth to such a bastard like you?"

Following a burst of smashing sounds, a boy slowly walked out. The boy had fair skin, dark circles under his eyes, and a thin body. He seemed to be malnourished. He closed the door and walked out without saying a word, and it seemed that he was going the same direction as them.

Tang Ziran saw this scene and frowned slowly. To be honest, he didn't know much about his neighbor next door. However, he also learned a little from other people that

The family next door seemed to be a mother and son. The man abandoned his wife and children, and the woman often abused her children. She stayed at home all day, and the children had to bring her food.

These were what he heard from people around him. He originally thought they were just rumors, but he didn't expect them to be true.

However, he did not say much. After all, this was someone else's family affair. He just silently followed Nan Fusheng with his child.

Tang Wulin, who was holding the hand of Tang Ziran, also looked at Nan Fusheng in front of him as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he remained silent.

Nan Fusheng, who was walking in front, showed a well-planned smile. Yes, all of this was his plan. Although he had the foundation to become the Lord of Mysteries "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", he did not have the corresponding deification ceremony. The ceremony could also be seen as a part of the role-playing method.

The Lord of Mysteries is a world full of chaos and madness, and most of the high-sequence Beyonders have some mental problems. The core function of "ritual" is to maintain self-cognition and assist in promotion.

Although he became a "thief" for some reasons and has not heard any "whispering" until now, he has not forgotten the experience of going to Sefirah Castle for the first time.

The more miserable possibility is that he will never become a high-sequence extraordinary person in this life, so he can only work on both fronts and strive to become a powerful spirit master. You ask him why he is so confident?

Of course it is because he is already a thief. Although he is only a low-sequence extraordinary person now, he has some high-sequence abilities.

The protagonist "Klein" in Lord of Mysteries was able to possess the "Fool" pathway when he was still a low-sequence one because of Sefirah Castle.

He also had part of the ability of the Sequence 2 "Miracle Master" – "Resurrection from the Dead is a Miracle". So it should be OK for him, a "Little Supreme" who possesses Sefirah Castle and three uniquenesses, to be able to use some high-sequence abilities in advance!

"Uniqueness" is the physical symbol of the authority corresponding to the sequence. Only by truly mastering uniqueness and integrating the three extraordinary characteristics can one complete the transformation from human to god and hold the authority of the sequence.

This was the condition for becoming "Sequence Zero", but it was not that troublesome for him. He did not need three extraordinary characteristics. As long as he became "Sequence One" and completed the fusion of "uniqueness", he might need a ritual, then he could become a true God.

I've gone off topic. To put it simply, he can use the "Thief" path, the abilities of Sequence 9 to Sequence 5, but the cost is a bit high and there is a price to pay. Sequence 4 is not unusable.

The ability of this pathway sequence six is:

Steal: You can temporarily steal other people's extraordinary abilities for your own use. You have a chance to steal one ability of a target within a 50-meter range. The more you know about the target, the easier it is to steal the one you want. The more ignorant you are, the closer it is to randomness and luck.

When the target sequence is higher than 6, there is a possibility of failure. The higher the sequence, the greater the probability of failure. High-sequence strong people can also be stolen, but the probability is smaller. Within ten minutes of the ability taking effect, the stolen person will directly lose the corresponding ability. The "Fire Thief" can use it skillfully. After ten minutes, the ability disappears, and the stolen person has to wait until the next day to recover.

If converted into soul masters, the higher the strength, the smaller the chance of "stealing".

In recent years, he accidentally discovered that when he used this to steal a soul master, he could steal a part of the other party's soul power. Although he would return it later, his body began to slowly possess soul power. The parents of this body were ordinary people.

Naturally, he has no soul power, but when he steals "soul power", his body is slowly nourished by the soul power. Soul masters need soul power to use their martial souls and activate soul skills, so when he steals "soul skills", he can steal a certain amount of soul power from the opponent.

To be honest, he hadn't thought of this. He originally thought that he was the target of the theft and couldn't use his soul skills. But when his target was soul power, depending on the difference in strength between the two sides, if the difference was not too big, he could steal most of the target's soul power.

When he discovered this ability, he did not use it indiscriminately, but stole it two or three times until his body had a certain amount of soul power and then stopped using it. This is also the reason why his innate soul power is only level one.

The ability to "steal" cannot be used indiscriminately. When the target of his stealing is a soul warrior who has just awakened his soul power, it doesn't matter. But when the target is a soul master, the other party cannot use his martial soul and soul skills, then he may be exposed. Although the possibility is very small, he does not want to take this "risk".

Especially now, every time he uses "Steal", he has to rest for a short while. After all, this is not an ability he can use now. He can only use it about once a day. If he uses it again, he will have the side effect of "dizziness".

And the "woman's roar" that Tang Ziran heard just now was also his masterpiece, the ability of "Fortune Teller" Sequence 5: Secret Puppet Master.

As he possesses the "uniqueness" of three pathways at the same time, he can use the abilities of the other two pathways across pathways, but the cost is greater.

The ability of the "Master of Secret Puppetry" is simply to gain the vision of the "Spirit Line". By manipulating the target's "Spirit Line", it can directly affect the target's spiritual body, astral body, mental body and etheric body, and then control the target's body with the help of the "etheric body".

However, perhaps because the world is different, in Douluo Continent it is: through the spiritual thread, the target's spirit and martial soul are eroded step by step, and then the opponent's body is controlled.

After initially gaining control of the target's "spiritual thread", the target will immediately begin to experience slow thinking, sluggish movements, and stiff body, gradually developing into the direction of a puppet.

If the control process is not interrupted, the target will become a puppet after five minutes. In a sense, the target is truly dead and the puppetization cannot be reversed.

Nan Fusheng's mother, the woman named "Lan Yuxi", had made Nan Fusheng into a "secret doll" when he had just been reborn with the help of "Source Castle" and still had some residual power.

This woman did not return home until noon the next day after Nan Fusheng's "resurrection". To be honest, as a "time traveler", Nan Fusheng has his own way of thinking.

It was difficult for him to truly acknowledge strangers, even the parents of this body, not to mention that they had, in a sense, killed him once.

So when Lan Yuxi returned home, he directly made her into a "secret doll" because he was still too young. If Lan Yuxi went out for a few more days, he was afraid that he would die several times. After that, he asked people to prepare some baby food through Lan Yuxi's soul guide communication device.

Fortunately, Lan Yuxi had been made into a "secret doll" and did not need to eat at all. He barely survived the novice period.

The scene in the morning was also deliberately directed by Nan Fusheng. A child without a father and unloved by his mother can easily win the sympathy of others. This is also a move for him to prepare for his future contact with Tang Wulin's family and even the future.

However, controlling the spirit thread really consumes too much mental energy. In order to perform this scene in front of Tang Wulin's family, he must pay attention to the timing. At the same time, controlling the "secret doll" does not consume his spirituality, but his mental energy, causing him to look like he has been "staying up all night."

But it doesn't matter, everything is going as planned.
