Odd Containment Specialist

[Tip: This ritual has certain risks. It is essentially a fusion of two forces, and there must be consumption.

From the perspective of the world itself, there is essentially no difference between power and cost. Good and bad, negative and positive are all the definitions given by us humans to certain things. As far as the world itself is concerned, there is no difference between the two properties. Therefore, the final result of the integration is beyond our control.

Although we use rituals and pray to the gods to make the fusion process proceed in the direction we expect, it may still overturn in the end.

There is a certain probability that new skills may even appear that have no positive effects at all and only have negative costs in extreme cases.

Of course, there is a very small probability that there will be no negative effects, only positive effects.

Therefore, before performing the fusion ceremony, you must be mentally prepared. If it is a very important core skill, do not perform fusion at will. 】

[Second tip: This ritual process may be interfered by some people, but you don’t have to worry about this. You just need to remember that if Alice reminds you, just interrupt the ritual immediately. 】

This is the preface hint given by the notes, and further below are the detailed steps of the fusion ceremony.

Xia Shou originally planned to sleep, but after seeing the fusion ritual appear, he decided to perform the ritual immediately.

For him, depth is life. Although he will not sink much after sleeping, removing the burden of skills as soon as possible and increasing his buoyancy can greatly reduce the depth of sinking, which is equivalent to increasing the time in disguise.

He ran outside all night and went to the night market to buy various props needed for the ceremony.

Probably because the primary fusion ceremony itself is not complicated, the props required for the ceremony are not many and can be purchased casually.

According to the notes, you first need a thick enough black cloth and a white candle.

After the purchase was completed, Xia Shou took a taxi and left Jiangbo City and came to the outskirts of the city.

According to the guidance of the notes, he needs to find a place that is secluded enough and undisturbed, preferably in a natural environment, and do not choose environments such as cities or artificial rooms.

"Brother, it's hard to take a taxi here in the middle of the night. If you don't increase the fare, you won't be able to take the order!" the enthusiastic driver kindly advised.

"Thank you, master. I'll just get off the bus here."

"Why are you here so late? Do you want me to wait for you? We've already come here anyway. Let's go back together later. The price will be calculated based on the price we came here." The driver said to solicit business.

Xia Shou smiled and said, "You may have to stay a little longer. Brother driver, just go back by yourself. I think it will be done during the day tomorrow."

The driver originally wanted to persuade him again, but he suddenly saw the white candle and black cloth held in Xia Shou's arms, and seemed to think of something. From the time Xia Shou got in the car to now, all the scenes came to mind.

He was shocked to find that from beginning to end, this young man had never turned his head!

Along the way, he saw the other party take out a mirror more than once and observe the scene outside the car window through the reflection of the mirror.

This reminded the driver of the stories about ghost hitchhikers he usually heard on the radio.

No way...

How can there be ghosts in this world?

Seeing Xia Shou get out of the car, the driver suppressed his wildly beating mood. When Xia Shou turned around completely, he shouted: "Little brother, did you forget to bring anything?"

When Xia Shou heard this, he turned around stiffly.

When the driver saw Xia Shou turning around, the hair on his body stood up and he felt terrified.

He couldn't explain the specific feelings, but he knew that it was definitely not the subconscious turning back action of ordinary people.

When an ordinary person is called, his neck and waist must cooperate and he slowly turns around. But this person's neck is very stiff and it seems that he can't even turn his head 60 degrees!

He turned around completely, like a puppet with stiff joints!

"Fuck!" the driver yelled, stepped on the accelerator, and sped off.

The driver looked at Xia Shou in the rearview mirror and turned around stiffly again, facing the direction he drove away, confirming his suspicion.

He immediately entered the chat group of their drivers and started to complain: "Fuck you! Brothers, you must not have imagined that I just pulled the car and it was so bad!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the group quickly became lively.

Lao Zhang: [Old Li, you are an idiot again. In modern society, no one knows how to use a mobile phone. I advise you not to listen to that radio station in the middle of the night. You are so neurotic! 】

Ah Qian: [That’s right, Brother Li, I’m just scaring myself. This time...]

Before the voice was finished playing, it was suddenly interrupted.

"Zizzi——!!"

"Zizzi!!"

The center console of the car suddenly made a slightly harsh electrical noise.

Li Qiang frowned and pressed the touch screen hard.

"Damn, this is a newly purchased tram. It hasn't been running for two years and it's like this?"

[Welcome to Midnight Radio, the story I will tell you tonight is - a ghost rides in the middle of the night~]

For some reason, the channel suddenly jumped to the radio station that Li Qiang often listened to, but the volume system seemed to have malfunctioned and the sound was turned to the maximum. Now the entire car was filled with the host's voice.

"Fuck your mother! I'll be a fool if I buy a domestic car next time!" Li Qiang cursed angrily, turning the volume knob crazily, but to no avail.

On the radio, the host was still telling stories.

[Tonight, driver Li was driving his car, picking up passengers on the street as usual. He was in a bad mood because he and his wife were getting divorced, and their child was only three years old. The reason for the divorce was because he had a habit of online gambling. ]

Li Qiang was stunned and braked suddenly, stopping the car on the road.

"Fuck you! You are playing this on me, right? Qian, I lent you the car for a few days last time, and you put this kind of thing on the center console, right!

Your grandmother is playing this kind of joke on me, and we are done with brothers!"

Li Qiang yelled in the car, but he was sweating all over.

Because the protagonist in the story has the same background as him, he is also an online gambler, he is also about to get divorced, and even his last name is the same.

But Li Qiang got angry because he didn't really think his friends were playing tricks on him.

Qian and he used to be in the same high school, and now they are driving online ride-hailing cars together. They have a good relationship, so there is no need to tease him like this.

Besides, we are all ordinary people, not hackers, and we have no ability to do such things as inserting viruses into the car's central control system.

But Li Qiang couldn't help but roar like this. He had to say to himself: These things were all done by Ah Qian. We were just playing with him and making fun of him because he always ignored advice and wanted to gamble.

... He tried his best to restrain himself and not think about another possibility.

That possibility is countless times more terrifying than being fooled by friends!

The volume of the radio station was still at the highest position, and the host continued to tell stories, which made Li Qiang's ears hurt.
