Chapter 555 Hey, Pick Another Flower
Although the newly learned shadow shielding certainly cannot be used here, Ji Ming still has a simple and easy-to-use old trick [Suggestion] to perform.
So in the eyes of outsiders, they may be watching a pair of idiots standing on the platform staring at the giant fluorescent bulb in the distance.
But in the real world, Ji Ming's thinking has actually covered the perception of all living things around him, including the people of the two sects.
The first one to bear the brunt of this is Koster, who is holding the railing and staring at the holy mountain like a bug seeing the light.
"Hehehe, there is actually a flower-level messenger who dares to be alone with me, be obedient and open your mind and accept my great treatment!"
However, just when Ji Ming put his hand on the back of Koster's head and was about to dig another corner of Mi Lin Lao Deng, he found that something seemed wrong.
"Brain, where is my brain!"
Just like the dantian in the fantasy world view is located behind the navel and in front of the kidneys, the consciousness is also located in an objectively existing organ.
Therefore, if Ji Ming wants to reshape Dandelion's consciousness, the other party must first have a qualified brain.
However, the current situation is that he can control it, and he can control it tightly, but he has touched the back of his head, but he can't find a place to operate!
"Turtle, why does this situation seem a little wrong?"
However, Ji Ming did not panic, but expanded his consciousness, covering Dandelion's entire body and began to scan it.
Then...
"Ah this."
Now he finally knew where the problem was-this Dandelion was not without a brain, but his brain was not in his head, but in his stomach!
After he followed the veins of Dandelion's consciousness and thoroughly checked his body for the second time, Ji Ming couldn't help but think of the weird jokes he had heard before.
"Do you think our brain is a parasite, and the nerves are its tentacles. It relies on this method to control our body's actions?"
And.
"Hou Lixie, my mother turned out to be a necromancer! Because I went to the hospital today to take an X-ray and found that there is actually a super skeleton sealed in my body that can completely synchronize with my movements!"
Yes, although on the earth where technology is supreme, these can only be a joke, but in the Yangyue world, similar things are by no means impossible.
——For example, the existence in front of Ji Ming.
It turns out that Mr. Koster, the Archbishop of the jungle, who has been communicating with him for a long time, is just a lifelike puppet costume.
The real dandelion is the one in his body, like nerves and tendons, with branches and whiskers covering every inch of the corner of the weird plant!
Therefore, Koster's previous dullness and taciturnity can be explained, just like the alien cockroach in "Men in Black" who moved in human skin. It was simply the leather suit that constrained his acting skills, so just tear it off.
Objectively speaking, this biological form is actually quite disgusting. After all, whether it is the head, neck, heart or fatal blow, all the biological weaknesses of Koster are not weaknesses.
He could even create a wonderful combo of tentacle entanglement, flesh parasitism, hypnotic pollen, paralysis toxin, sensory shielding, etc., which could make the atmosphere very strange.
But who told him to be too arrogant? He really followed the general visit process and came to the headquarters of the Holy Light Church to witness the holy mountain as the remains of the gods with his own eyes?
Just like fish can't live without water, lazy dog dragons can't live without quilts, and plants' pursuit of light is also engraved in their bones.
Like the blood clan next door, they can't completely refuse the temptation of thirst even if they are at a high level, and can only use willpower to restrain their desires as much as possible.
However, what appeared in front of him now was the purest and closest to the origin, and any absorption of it would make him soar high.
The god of crops, Grayson, certainly doesn't have to endure it, and he can even sign an agreement with Bishop Sterling to send some holy light monks from time to time to let him enjoy a complete holy light bath.
But as the first monk in the nearly 100 years of the Jungle Church to feel the origin of the holy light so closely, and the Dandelion is an unprecedented artificial plant...
Under such a coincidence, it is reasonable that Ji Ming, who is already good at mind control, will take him down in one move.
Then comes the classic anti-brainwashing three-piece set - clearing the influence of the Jungle God, stripping away chaotic thoughts, and rebuilding a complete mind.
After this set of processes, although Koster has not changed at all from the outside, he has become a firm believer in the God in his heart.
And compared with the Jungle, which also uses power and money to entice, but is actually mainly brainwashing, Ji Ming's approach is much more open-minded.
Venomous Snake likes to play and make trouble, so let her and her believers play with Grayson and fully release the constraints.
Thyme likes to do scientific research, so open the research rights of perfect life and the library in the tower castle to him for reading and research.
Rose and Dandelion like fame and fortune and are eager to make progress, so let them be our internal supporters. When the Deep Forest Kingdom collapses, they will definitely be recorded as a special merit.
Therefore, under the targeted counterattack, Ji Ming unknowingly seduced four of the twelve golden flowers in the dense forest.
There was no other way. From a third-rate company that was already on the countdown to bankruptcy and liked to PUA its employees, to the world's largest giant company with millions of employees and constantly expanding, no worker could withstand such poaching.
[It's sad that the poor victim, Milin, who has been accused of four crimes, is still kept in the dark. Alas! ]
"Kid, this is not funny."
But the boss's strange words did remind Ji Ming. He had recently turned two flowers in one go, and the probability of being discovered by the God of Milin was increasing.
Since it was impossible to give in, the only thing he could do now was to increase his efforts, borrow the way of roses and dandelions, and try to trick as many flower-level messengers as possible into contact with him to speed up the progress of the rebellion.
It would be best if he could wait until the day when he and the God of Milin broke up and confronted each other head-on. He would come down from the Kingdom of God and be surprised to find that he, except for the Pope...
No! It would be best if all the high-level combat forces, including the Pope, had become traitors!
——Damn it, did I create the Black Organization! ?
And since Dandelion had been converted into one of his own, things would be simple afterwards. Ji Ming followed the process all the way and completed the tour before dark.
After all, he was a high-ranking pagan. Archbishop Koster would definitely not stay at the Holy Light Church, so he led his men back to Qixia City.
So after sending the sightseeing group to the temporary residence arranged by the pioneers, Ji Ming's mission for the day was over.
But just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by someone.
"Sir, can I talk to you in private?"
Ji Ming: ? ? ?
He looked up and found that it was the young man who served as the head of the sightseeing group's guard.
"You..."
But he still had time to leisurely recall slowly, and the young man in front of him was already anxious.
"Sir, I am also a royal relative! Please consider it, I really have something important to tell you!"
"Hmm?"
As soon as he said this, Ji Ming was no longer sleepy, and immediately said that it was okay, let's go to the private garden you visited yesterday morning, I forgot to return the key... No, the key is still in my hand, it's convenient.
After a while, Ji Ming led the head guard into the garden, letting him check around like a panicked animal, and then put down a few magic circles as alarm devices before speaking.
"It makes no sense for me to harm you. Instead, I should be wary of you harming me."
The head guard waved his hands quickly.
"No, no, no, I absolutely don't want to harm you. On the contrary, I really need your help!"
Seeing that the boy was so scared that his eyes began to turn red, Ji Ming stopped threatening and sat on the bench in the pavilion.
"I have to take risks to meet you privately. I'll give you three minutes to explain your intentions."
"Okay, then let me introduce myself first..."
As soon as the young man opened his mouth, Ji Ming was happy.
There was no way his story could be connected to the story of Koster, the unlucky guy.
Since the dandelion is a special plant created by humans, then as its official leather case, Koster's identity is naturally real.
Just like those big families who like to gamble on both sides and send their children as hostages everywhere, Koster is actually the "loyalty" offered by the Feiyu family to the dense forest church.
And the real Koster did well in the church at the beginning, at least he became the bishop of a large noble territory through his own efforts.
After all, he is not the kind of noisy dude, but a well-educated, calm and steady, and reliable high-quality male in the deep forest.
But it is also because of this that the lucky Koster has become the best parasitic object of Dandelion with his dead-like character that he doesn't even need to act.
Good news, Xiao Ke has been rising rapidly since then, and has stepped up to the position of the archbishop of the southern region.
Bad news, Xiao Ke is no longer the rich son of the Feiyu family, but the skin of the watery Dandelion_official.
So, since these aristocratic families can get both sides, why can't the royal family of the deep forest?
So the man in front of Ji Ming, if we talk about seniority, should actually be considered the seventh son of the Lionheart.
Note, considering that the Lionhearts of all generations have had many children, I have the "good" habit of not even recognizing illegitimate children.
Strictly speaking, this gentleman named Aqita is not the seventh son of the Lionheart, but the seventh son recognized by him.
And even if he is recognized, it is just a ticket to join this royal war. Compared with the three crown princes, Aqita's gold content is still too low.
So in order to avoid being liquidated by his brothers and sisters because he stepped out with his left foot first, Aqita's noble mother won the qualification of being a hostage for him and entered the Jungle Church.
After all, he is a descendant of the old lion family, and the young man has good hardware. Not only did he become a member of the armed monks with his excellent fighting talent, but he also climbed step by step to his current position.
But as we all know, the higher you climb, the farther you see, and the easier it is to see whether you are in a free space or a gradually shrinking puddle.
So when Archita was promoted again and qualified to manage the peace and stability of a diocese, he suddenly found that his situation seemed quite bad.
Especially when he accidentally discovered the secret of Archbishop Cortes, he was so scared that he couldn't sleep or eat, fearing that one day he would become the parasite of a strange plant.
That's right, this is the fundamental reason why he gave up his position as the leader of the Jungle Guards and followed Archbishop Koster to such a faraway place on a diplomatic visit.
——Let's go, just laugh it off.
According to Aqita's original plan, he would take action as soon as he entered Qixia City and secretly contact the Holy Light Pope as quickly as possible to ask for asylum from him.
But as we all know, plans can never keep up with changes, not to mention that this kid is indecisive and soft-hearted.
So the agreed immediate action turned into a procrastination disaster. It was already the last day of the three-day visit, and Aqita did not take any action.
It was not until he came to the Holy Light Church as the head of the guards and visited with the archbishop that he finally mustered up the courage to meet the Chosen God Kimien, who seemed to be easy to talk to and was friendly to everyone he met.
So the limited-time event "Plans Cannot Keep Up with Changes" was re-engraved. Aqita, who originally wanted to be more reserved, was frightened by Ji Ming and began to speak out.
"Oh, so it's because of this."
With Ji Ming's personality, he would definitely welcome and strongly support the defection of people inside the Deep Forest, but it was not satisfying to have only one or two small pawns come to make a small fuss.
This is also the fundamental reason why Ji Ming sent Rose and other flower-level envoys with relatively normal IQ and EQ back as spies without saying a word - laying mines.
But from another perspective, since time is on his side, Ji Ming would not risk breaking the relationship in advance and forcibly save a small figure who can't even get the crown prince under the pressure of the Deep Forest.
Of course, this does not mean that Aqita has no value in his existence, so Ji Ming's response is
"Since you are also a royal noble, why did you think of escaping when you encountered such injustice? This is too shameful!"
Aqita was confused by Ji Ming's question: "Ah this..."
Before he could figure out that it was Ji Ming, an outsider, who was generous to others, Ji Ming's second round of questioning began.
"Are you doing this to justify the blood of the lion in your body? Or do you think that simply escaping can solve all problems? Don't you care about your mother who is so good to you!"
