Chapter 127 The Great Secret(1/2)
After everyone sat down, everyone chatted and played cards.
After a few rounds, Lin Hao could see that the people in front of him were placing bets very casually and were not very obsessed with winning or losing.
Lin Hao felt that these people had a lot of background, so in the following chat, he also intentionally or unintentionally guided the chat topic, so Lin Hao got some things from them that ordinary people could not know.
For example, this world used to be a normal world. About four hundred years ago, something happened that caused people in this world to have the ability to transfer the lives of others overnight.
In the following more than a hundred years, many things happened due to that incident, such as the disintegration of the country, the reorganization of regional forces, wars and riots, etc.
After they talked to this point, they kept silent about what happened next, and Lin Hao didn't dare to ask further questions. It was good to hear these secrets.
However, through their stories, Lin Hao realized that this world had never experienced industrial society, and had entered the electric age directly from the Middle Ages.
This also explains why there are no such things as bicycles in this world.
Lin Hao was very curious about what the accident was, and what happened after that to create such a deformed world today.
In fact, when I first solidified the skills, I discovered that there was a problem with this. After all, there was something wrong with the solidified skills. One skill actually had three abilities.
At that time, the system also prompted that the rules of time and the rules of life had merged, which seemed to be caused by that accident.
He also allowed himself to use the solidification skill for the second time, let~!
Hmm~!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Lin Hao's mind. He was a person with time retrieval skills. It was not easy to obtain certain information!
As long as he puts a gun to their foreheads, they dare not to obediently explain and tell the secrets that interest them.
Then I casually looked around and saw that this room was less than 200 square meters, very nice.
However, each of them has several bodyguards, so there is no way to deal with them by himself. Besides, there are dozens of bodyguards outside who can come in for support at any time.
You have to think of a way!
Later, Lin Hao showed the cards in his hand, and as expected, he lost 1,100 years of time, with 7,450 years left. The reason why he lost this round was because he did not use the time retrieval skill.
I have used it 4 times before. When I win or lose, the time in my hand has reached 8550 years. It doesn’t matter if I lose 1100 years this time. I will come back later anyway.

Then Lin Hao said: "It's getting late, do you want to continue playing?"
Phillip did not speak, but looked at the other four people. Seeing their indifferent expressions, he said:
"Then let's stop here today, let's play again next time!"
Philip and Sylvia sent Lin Hao out of the door. Under Sylvia's reluctant eyes, Lin Hao waved goodbye to her and drove away.
Then Lin Hao drove his sports car back to the hotel directly. Fortunately, he returned to the hotel without any accident. At this time, Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Since he could come back safely, it meant that they didn't have any bad intentions towards him.
"System, use time backtracking!"
In a blink of an eye, Lin Hao returned to Philip's manor again. His time was still 8550. At this time, just after the cards were dealt, Lin Hao simply folded the cards and said:
"Sorry, excuse me!"
Others didn't pay attention, so Lin Hao walked to the door and directly used the skill Traceless Expansion Spell to expand the room to about 1,200 cubic meters.
Then use your consciousness to control this space, then close the sound and prohibit entry and exit!
At this time, the people in the room saw that the room suddenly doubled in size. They were all frightened by this sudden change, and the bodyguards also took out their pistols and looked out in all directions.
However, when they took out their pistols, they found that their bodies were out of control, as if their heads were stuck and hung in mid-air.
Then the pistol suddenly flew out, pointing the muzzle at himself, and only heard a few loud noises:
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
In an instant, several bodyguards fell to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, but Lin Hao didn't care!
Fortunately, the space expanded by the Traceless Stretching Spell is completely under your control. Even whether the sound can be transmitted is all within your own thoughts.
Therefore, people inside and outside this room cannot enter or exit normally without his consent, which provides Lin Hao with an excellent opportunity.
After taking care of the irrelevant people, Lin Hao pointed a gun at five people, including Philip.
Five people looked over in horror at the same time, especially Philip. His face was full of disbelief. He didn't expect Lin Hao to be a vicious thug.
Lin Hao was not polite, he picked up a pistol and pointed it at someone, and asked directly:
"I wonder who can do me a favor and finish what we just talked about?"
"What, what topic!" As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Hao's pistol.
Lin Hao said seriously: "That accident! What happened!"
The man pointed at the gun stammered:
"We, we, no, no, no, no~"
"Bang!"
Seeing that he couldn't even speak clearly, Lin Hao solved it directly. He would be back later anyway, so it didn't matter at all!
Then the gun was pointed at another person, and Lin Hao said nonchalantly:
"You!"
Seeing how cruel Lin Hao was, the man who was pointed at the gun did not even dare to stutter, and said clearly:
"Actually, we don't know what the accident was, but suddenly everyone has that ability!"
"Aren't there any phenomena like heaven and earth happening?" Lin Hao asked again.
"No, according to records, everyone at that time suddenly had the ability to transfer other people's life energy!" After saying that, Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't shoot.
When Lin Hao heard this, he thought that when the system prompted him, he seemed to have mentioned life energy, so he said:
"What is life energy?"
"Please tell me in detail!" He said and looked at a few people indifferently. At this time, Lin Hao could kill these people directly if he wanted to.
After saying that, Lin Hao looked at several people with a cold face. Everyone was frightened by his eyes, so they all told what they knew one by one.
Looking at the people scrambling for the first place, Lin Hao stopped him and said, "Speak one by one!"
"After more than a hundred years of chaos, some methods have finally been developed."
After their stories, Lin Hao learned that about three hundred years ago, scientists in this world discovered through research that everyone has life energy in their body.
As time goes by, when the life energy is exhausted, it is the moment when life dies.
The essence of the ability to transfer other people's lives is to transfer other people's life energy. After repeated experiments, by transferring other people's life energy, the person can survive for about one year at most, and then the person dies.
Later, through targeted research, it was discovered that although everyone consumes life energy all the time, they are also constantly producing life energy.
Based on this principle, scientists don't know what method to use to create a heritable genetic medicine. After use, life energy can be quantified and displayed on the left arm. This is also the origin of the time watch.
However, although life energy can be produced on its own, the production will change with age.
For example, people are at their peak when they are 25 years old, and this will last until about 40 years old, and then they will enter a decline period, and by the time they are 60 years old, they will be unable to make ends meet.
Therefore, after the genetic medicine is adjusted again, a built-in storage will be generated in the time watch, specifically used to collect the life energy produced by the human body.
When humans die, their corpses will be taken away for processing. At this time, the life energy stored in the corpse will be extracted and then enter the time bank system for circulation.
This is why everyone in this world is fixed at the age of 25, because this is the peak period of the human life cycle.
Unconsciously, he looked at Philip. No wonder his Weiss Bank kept raising interest rates on slum loans, raising prices and taxes.
Its purpose is nothing more than two:
On the one hand, if no one dies, the result will inevitably be a population explosion, and then there will not be enough materials to supply human survival. Eventually, due to mutual competition for living space, war will break out again, or self-destruction will occur.
Another reason is to allow some human beings in this world to become leeks of life energy. Leeks have a characteristic that the more diligently they are harvested, the greater the yield.
Therefore, turn these humans into leeks, thereby making these powerful people immortal, and the most cost-effective ones are undoubtedly the people in the slums.
And they also have plans to eliminate some "backward" production capacity. If this is the case, all this will be explained.
Suddenly, Lin Hao thought of something. While watching this show, time policeman Raymond Lyon came to find Philip. At that time, Philip was talking to someone on the phone. They were a man and a woman, one with an address in Europe and the other in Central Asia.<
/p>
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
"Mr. Weiss, don't you have anything to say?" Lin Hao pointed the gun at Phillip.
"What do you want to know!" Philip said fearfully, completely losing his previous gentlemanly demeanor.
When Philip saw Lin Hao's gun pointed at him, he was extremely frightened, otherwise he would not normally have seven or eight bodyguards with him.
When Lin Hao saw this, he was afraid that he had something to hide, so he said vaguely:
"Time zone!"
Phillip breathed a sigh of relief, he really knew this, so he said:
"The division of time zones is a long story, and we have to start with the invention of genetic medicine!"
Lin Hao picked up another gun and said:
"I have plenty of time!"
To be continued...
