Underground of the ancient city of Lamba, Cathedral.
Ah Jiu has already made it very clear about mathematicians.
His specific abilities are unknown.
But what is certain is that a mathematician has such profound attainments in mathematics that he can calculate many things through the combined operation of mathematics and original energy.
For example, the nine-digit fixed value when the ultimate danger arrives, or the approximate range where the fixed value lies.
This is something only mathematicians can do.
He is the founder of the Church of the Stars, and he described a very likely future to the people in white who joined the church.
If this is all, then most mathematicians are also fanatical believers.
But at this moment, the witnesses were fighting with the man in white, but at this most critical moment, the mathematician disappeared with a strange piece of meat that could emit yellow lines!
At this moment, the mathematician changed from an ordinary fanatical believer to a conspirator.
He used everyone including people in white and witnesses for unknown purposes!
…
Ah Jiu carefully searched for clues in the room.
As a result, nothing was found.
"I'm going to find him and ask him clearly!"
Ah Jiu picked up the sniper rifle in his hand.
She won't kill anyone, but if the mathematician really deceived everyone, Ah Jiu wouldn't mind shooting him twice in the limbs to vent her anger!
But the moment Ah Jiu turned around, a black gun suddenly aimed at her eyebrows.
"do not move."
The speaker on the other side is Cheng Yi.
He habitually put on his hood, put his hands in his pockets, stared at Ah Jiu under the hood, and spoke in a low voice.
"I have something else to ask you."
The person threatening Ah Jiu with a gun was a hooded man who was a replica of Ah Jiu himself.
It also held a sniper rifle, and the high temperature coming from the muzzle was no less than that of Ah Jiu himself.
This is Cheng Yi's black water mirror.
Even if you have never seen a person with link-like characteristics, he can imitate it for you!
"I need information on something."
"——The one with linking characteristics, and that strange flame creature."
"Everything you know must be told to me!"
Cheng Yi's mental state was quite unstable.
This is not due to the influence of the yellow line, but the information Ah Jiu just gave is too extraordinary, almost completely subverting the previous research of his teacher and himself!
"No, wait, I'm too excited, sorry."
As if aware of his own gaffe, Cheng Yi covered his head and waved to signal the replica hooded man to put down the sniper rifle in his hand.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he gasped for air.
His eyes remained firm.
"But, I must know about that weird creature!"
Cheng Yi is considered a scientist.
He knew very well that in the process of studying something, he was very likely to find that it was useless in the end.
The reality is so cruel.
Cheng Yi could only force himself to understand and accept those things as much as possible, just like now.
"You said before that after you 'embrace' the flame creature, you can gain the power of linking characteristics. Is that a metaphor?"
"No, it's just a description."
Ah Jiu stroked his face, which had been burned over a large area, and recalled:
"The mathematician was the first linker I ever met, and it was he who popularized the concept of linkers to us."
"He can establish a connection with the strange world."
"Although there are not many members in the Church of the Stars, every one of them is personally invited by the mathematician."
"According to his own words, 'You are qualified.'"
Ah Jiu narrated:
"After establishing the link, mathematicians can draw an almost pure black 'lens' out of thin air."
"A flame will rise in it, gradually expand, and finally emerge from the black mirror."
"'It' is the flame creature."
Ah Jiu carefully thought about the adjectives related to "it".
"The shape is humanoid, and the body shape is like that of an eight or nine-year-old child."
"If I use some cruel words to describe it, it would be——"
"A little girl consumed by fire."
"The flame is its hair, the flame is also its skirt."
"It would tremble and walk towards us, then stretch out its hands and stand on tiptoes."
"That look was like a little girl asking for a hug."
Ah Jiu recalled.
"It seems like some kind of ritual."
"The mathematician will hug the little girl first, and then the little girl will ask us for a hug."
"Some people will run away out of fear, but some people - like us, choose to accept the hug of the little girl."
"It's...warm."
Ahjiu thought about it and gave a very inexplicable evaluation.
"It's not hot, it's not painful, it's really warm."
"But the flames on its body will directly touch our bodies, as if burning our bodies."
"Those flames seem to be alive. Everyone is burned to a different extent by the flames."
"For example, my upper body and cheeks were burned, but all my limbs were intact."
"This is the mark of being hugged."
Ah Jiu pointed to the burn scars on his face.
"When you have this kind of burn mark on your body, you will officially become a link type person."
"If you were an ordinary person before, then you will become an extraordinary person and gain different abilities."
"If you have been a traitor before, then you will have a second trait besides yourself."
"According to mathematicians, this is something only those who link properties can do."
"Then……"
Ah Jiu wanted to continue talking, but Cheng Yi suddenly interrupted her.
"This is impossible!"
Cheng Yi said with great certainty: "It is impossible for human beings to have multiple characteristics, unless..."
He thought of a possibility.
"It's 'borrowed'."
"Um?"
This view attracted everyone's attention.
Cheng Yi continued to explain:
"The so-called 'establishing a link with strange creatures' is actually about borrowing their own abilities from strange creatures."
"This also explains why you people with linking characteristics basically use flame-based characteristics, because all of your characteristics and abilities originate from that flame creature!"
boom!
Before he finished speaking, a violent explosion suddenly erupted from the walls of the cathedral.
Smoke and dust were everywhere, and a big hole appeared in the wall.
A figure slowly walked out of the big cave, humming a little tune as he walked.
"La~la~la...la~la..."
"Ajiu, you talk too much."
The person who came was a little girl.
Her code name is "Tourist" and she is a madman.
At first glance, the tourists seemed to be blaming Ah Jiu for being with hostile people, but this was not the case.
Because the tourist is a lunatic chasing danger
"If you explain too much to them, they won't come after us for information!"
"That's so boring!"
The tourist walked to Ah Jiu's side.
Ah Jiu couldn't help but swallowed, and planned to take half a step back, but was stopped by the tourist.
"Hey, don't move. There is a red line behind you. If you touch it, you will die."
Ah Jiu immediately froze there.
She paused and tried to persuade the tourists, "The mathematicians have betrayed us, we have to find a way to protect fixed values..."
Before he finished speaking, the tourist suddenly tightened his hands, as if pulling an invisible thread and wrapping it around Ah Jiu's neck.
"Okay, okay, it's not like I don't know."
"Don't forget, I can see danger as a physical red line!"
"I've known for a long time that mathematicians are up to no good."
The tourist's face showed an extremely excited smile, and even blushed.
"That's how cool it is!"
Her hands moved quickly around Ah Jiu's body, wrapping the red threads that only she could see one after another around Ah Jiu's body.
Even though he couldn't see the "danger", the chill from the bottom of his heart still made Ah Jiu tremble all over.
"Don't move, otherwise your body will be cut into pieces by the red thread."
The tourist said as he pulled hard.
"Well!"
Ah Jiu's body lost strength in an instant, as if tightly bound by a red thread, and collapsed into the tourists' arms.
The tourists seemed to be stroking a puppy, gently touching Ah Jiu’s head.
