Chen Ye frowned. Was this old man so kind of riddle-master? He had been here for quite a while, and the old man hadn't said a single word about actual business.
It seed the old man sensed Chen Ye's impatience.
Only then did the old man speak slowly, "Young man, don't be in such a hurry. You have your whole life ahead of you!"
"I, this old man, am not in a hurry, so why are you rushing?"
"Young people these days, they're really sothing..."
"Especially your convoy. Each of you actually has different questions."
"Just no one has asked about the Oasis."
"Aren't you curious about the Oasis? Not curious why there are so many Anomalies in the Oasis, not curious why the Oasis beca what it is now?"
Chen Ye exhaled a puff of Smoke Breath. "What's the use of being curious? In the end, it's just the sa few secrets going round and round."
"With such a good opportunity, improving oneself is the most important thing."
"Cough, cough, cough... Interesting!"
"Young people these days, not so easy to fool anymore!"
"Fine, fine... If I don't bring out so real goods, I'm afraid you all really won't put in the effort!"
The old man raised a hand, and that Fat Guy from before, appearing from who knows where again, brought over a cup of hot tea.
"Don't be envious. At my age, my energy isn't what it used to be. Having a cup of hot tea is perfectly normal!"
"Alright, let's talk about the problem with your eye."
"From what I understand, the Abyssal Blood Pupil should be among the more powerful and special categories of Anomalies."
"Originally, based on my understanding, the Abyssal Blood Pupil should have been capable of growing into one of the strongest Anomalies."
"Even in their world, the Abyssal Blood Pupil remains an extrely terrifying existence."
"I heard Rong City has a Snow Woman and an Eight-Limbed Human Face."
"Compared to the Abyssal Blood Pupil, these two Anomalies are actually far inferior."
"If left to develop, these two Anomalies wouldn't be enough to stand before it!"
"I imagine the reason it was cut down halfway was likely because its abilities hadn't fully recovered."
"Otherwise, you definitely wouldn't be sitting in front of right now."
"Many Anomalies, due to the rules of our world, haven't fully recovered their original strength and true form."
"I've seen many powerful Anomalies that, precisely because they were too powerful, were suppressed even more harshly."
"Perhaps the Abyssal Blood Pupil is one of them."
"Just didn't expect it would appear in Rong City and, furthermore, beco your eye."
Chen Ye didn't speak, quietly listening to the old man.
His knowledge about the Abyssal Blood Pupil was very limited.
Part of it was even provided by the System.
"I haven't encountered this kind of thing either."
"To call you an Anomaly Symbiosis Sequence user, the Blood Eye can only be considered a part of the Abyssal Blood Pupil."
"To call you a Wonder Symbiosis Sequence user, but this eye of yours doesn't even qualify as a Wonder."
"Have to say, young man, your imagination and courage are considerable. Grafting part of an Anomaly's organ onto your own body, you're the first person I've encountered who's done that."
Having spoken too much, the old man's deanor seed sowhat weary.
After a pause of about half a minute, the old man continued.
"Although I don't know how you found the courage to install this eye in your own socket."
"I can see that this Blood Eye probably hasn't completely fused with you yet."
"And, you've used its abilities recently."
"I imagine it wasn't very comfortable!"
Chen Ye still didn't speak.
The information revealed in the old man's words made Chen Ye feel sowhat uneasy.
Chen Ye felt this old man didn't seem human.
Had he been to that world?
That world?
Which world?
The world where Anomalies live?
Faced with Chen Ye's silence, the old man wasn't angry.
"The main reason you and this eye haven't fused yet is because this Blood Eye contains too much of its own Anomalous power."
"With this much Anomalous power, the fact that you haven't been corrupted is already quite remarkable."
"This is probably because, even if you use the Blood Eye's power, you likely haven't done so many tis."
Chen Ye nodded inwardly, but not a trace of emotion showed on his face.
After obtaining the Blood Eye, he had indeed rarely used its abilities.
At most, it was only two or three tis, if he counted everything.
Heavy usage was basically nonexistent.
Mainly because he had many abilities of his own, and abilities stronger than the Blood Eye weren't lacking.
Plus, after using the Blood Eye, it always shed Blood Tears.
This made Chen Ye very cautious every ti he used it.
"If we follow your original plan, using your Supernatural Power to slowly influence this Blood Eye, you'd probably be able to perfectly fuse with this Blood Eye in about ten to fifteen years."
"By then, you should be able to perfectly inherit its current power."
"Ten to fifteen years?"
Chen Ye repeated the words.
This differed sowhat from the System's estimate.
But it was probably because the two had different understandings of Anomalous power.
"Too slow?"
"Young man... life is long... fine, fine..."
"There are other thods."
"The second thod: seal the Blood Eye's power, letting it release slowly. For example, you're probably Sequence 3 right now."
"You could let the Blood Eye release at most Sequence 2 power. Of course, the safest and most secure thod would be to only release Sequence 1 power, which is more reasonable!"
"If using this thod."
"You'd need to find at least one Pharmacist Sequence user, one Formation Master Sequence user, and one Celestial Master Sequence user to cooperate in sealing your Blood Eye."
"As your strength increases, you could slowly unlock the Blood Eye's power."
"This is the second most secure thod."
Chen Ye remained silent. This thod was practically useless.
"Of course, there's a third thod. Also the most risky one."
"You could find an eye similar to the Blood Eye and install it in your right eye socket. The Anomalous power of the two eyes would reach a balance."
"In this situation, as long as you don't completely overuse one of the eyes, you could still manage to coexist peacefully."
"Once your main Sequence reaches a level capable of restraining both eyes, you could possess two types of Anomalous power."
"By then, whether you are human or ghost, I'm afraid only you yourself would know."
