I can go back to the mysterious age
Chapter 388: Candle Soul's Efficiency is Too High (4000)
The midday sun shines brightly, looking out through the windows of the sanatorium. The walls are shiny white, the trees are green, and the clothes of pedestrians are cool.
Claire left because something big happened this morning.
Dark gold level hunter, one of the shadow candidates, Lion King Soth was attacked.
Moreover, it was not just a simple ordinary attack. Instead, an assassin comparable to the level of a Shadow Hunter takes action! If the dead soldiers sent by the royal family to protect Soss hadn't delayed at the critical moment, I'm afraid the news that Claire heard now was the death of the Lion King Soss.
In this assassination, Soth did not die, but he also paid a heavy price. His left arm was severed and the injury was serious. Even if there are brilliant extraordinary doctors within the royal family who can reattach the injured arm, it will definitely be far less useful and flexible than before. It can be said that after the assassination ended this morning, Soth's strength was damaged and his threat was greatly reduced. Solomon the Thorn and Claire the Siren became the biggest winners and the objects of suspicion.
Yes, as soon as the news of Soth's assassination and injury came out, many reasons for the assassination spread within the Dark Hunting organization. But without exception, at least two-thirds of the accusations were directed at Claire and Solomon.
Even if it wasn't done by the two of them, it was done by the forces behind them. As for Ka Xiu who had just submitted his badge of honor, almost no one suspected or paid attention to him. After all, what can a black bronze level hunter do?
Even if the royal family named Kaxiu and said it was Kaxiu who did it, no one would believe it. Not to mention, the royal family is now confused about this morning's assassination. Which force did this?
Feileng Cui, central city, inside the palace.
In a palace building filled with the smell of medicine, Soth walked out of the room with a bandage on his left arm and a gloomy expression. Following him were a dozen or so energy users with medical abilities. There were men, women, and children, all of whom looked a little pale due to excessive use of their abilities.
They had tried their best. Soth's severed left arm was saved, but the flexibility was not as good as before. I'm afraid it's only one-third of its original strength. If it was an ordinary broken arm, with so many energy users coming together, complete recovery would not be a problem. However, when the ghost's sickle slashes down, it is not only a physical cut, but also a mental cut.
For a strong man of this level, every move and every move contains courage and will. Physical injuries can be healed, but the soul cannot.
Half an hour later, in a quiet secret room.
Soth smashed the iron sandbag in front of him with one punch. The iron sand inside exploded with a bang, turning into raindrops and falling to the ground with crackling sounds.
"Damn it! Claire! Solomon! Who is it!!!"
Venting his anger, he raised and lowered his right arm like a hammer. Punch the iron rod in front and bend it into a ball.
The five thick fingers pinched the iron ball, and the bones creaked.
Soth knew that he was being targeted, and by an organization that knew him well. The first is the Shadow Assassin Organization. This top assassination organization has actually always had a close relationship with the royal family and is considered half of Soth's thugs. But this morning, the headquarters of the Shadow Thorn organization was captured, and several gold medal killers and Shadow Thorn leaders were all killed. At the same time, Soth's most capable man, the middle-aged man Gary, was also killed by an assassin.
Coupled with his own assassination, three things came together. The person who planned this operation was undoubtedly an organized and premeditated force. This force is very familiar with the royal family's situation and has excellent intelligence. And he was confident, not afraid of the royal family's revenge, and finally able to send out Shadow Hunter-level assassins! All Soth could think of was the Parliament and the Dark Hunting Organization.
That is, his two old rivals, Claire and Solomon.
As for Bai Kui, and the old hunters who may be behind him. It's not that Soth looked down upon them. This neutral group was still much worse than the Parliament and the Dark Hunting Organization. Can the old hunters send out a shadow hunter-level killer? No kidding, South ruled it out decisively.
"You can't compete with me, so you're playing dirty?!" Soth's teeth clicked loudly, like a lion chewing food. His eyes became fierce: "When my injury is healed, I will definitely retaliate!"
On the other side, in the second area of Feilengcui, there is a dark training room.
Solomon, who had just heard the news, was confused.
This is so efficient! Just last night he said that he would help him eliminate his opponents, and this morning he chopped off one of Soth's arms! Zhu Hun and the forces behind him are indeed very interested!
The only pity is that Soth survived.
With just one left arm, although South's threat has declined, he is still one of the two competitors. Solomon suddenly felt that Zhu Hun was too hasty and should plan in detail and choose the best time to take action. Wait, the plan was just announced last night, and we started to attack Soth this morning. Maybe in the afternoon, Zhu Hun will assassinate Claire again! No, he had to persuade him to think long term.
Solomon thought of this and immediately left the secret room.
When he found Zhu Hun through special contact channels, Zhu Hun looked confused. I am still in the initial preparation stage, planning to collect Soth's daily action cycle. Soth has been assassinated?
For a moment, he felt like he had no place to use his strength.
If this matter was not directed and staged by the royal family, then the only ones qualified to carry out assassination operations would be the Parliament and the Dark Hunting Organization. Solomon is the candidate recommended by the parliament, so it can only be Claire!
Solomon and Zhu Hun looked at each other and became wary.
One o'clock in the afternoon, District 7, headquarters of the Dark Hunting Organization.
"This matter must have been done by the Hongli Council! One hundred percent certain!" A gray-haired old man stood up at the long table and said loudly.
"Of course, we don't rule out the possibility that it was directed and acted by the royal family. But the probability is relatively small. The secret will be exposed when Soth and others fight."
Next to him, a man in a suit and leather shoes speculated.
"No matter what, this is a good thing. Although we are reluctant to admit it, Soth was indeed the most promising candidate to become a Shadow Hunter. Now that his left arm is injured and has flaws, his strength must have declined. In this way As soon as we come, our probability increases..."
Another old man spoke and looked towards the end of the long table.
Claire was sitting there with a dazed expression on her face. Whenever she entered such a serious conference room situation, she couldn't help but become distracted and sleepy.
If possible, Claire would like to carry out the task assigned by her uncle to protect Bai Kui. She has already felt the benefits of this task. She can stay alone in the next room and fish openly and lazily.
Claire has snacks and novels ready.
Spend an unforgettable little vacation in a sanatorium.
The sun gradually sets from its high position in the sky at noon, and the light becomes dim, and is eventually swallowed up by clouds and darkness, turning completely into night.
Card Xiu opened his eyes and came to the world of disaster from reality.
The feet are standing on the altar of resurrection, and there is a solid touch.
Crash...the pale flames circled all the way up from the top of the space.
The first floor of the asylum tower was completely illuminated.
Card Xiu let go of his right hand, and in his palm was a triangular badge like a pyramid. This is the hunter badge that the ghost redeemed for him.
Putting it in his pocket, Ka Xiu walked along the stairs to the third floor.
Directly activate the defensive array and let the light film cover the tower walls.
The disaster in the air was immediately driven away and filtered out.
Half a minute later, Card Xiu left the shelter tower and walked all the way across the Ashes City. We came to the city wall where the ghosts left the disaster world last time.
Wait a moment.
The swirling black lines on the city wall formed an illusory passage.
Two figures walked out slowly.
One holds a huge scythe, wears a thick black robe, and has a sinister aura.
One carries a knight's sword on his back, wears heavy armor, and stands as tall as a mountain.
"Ghost Man, Iron Knight... let's go, I will take you to the tower..."
Kaxiu did things neatly and got straight to the point.
He jumped up, and the ghost man followed closely. Only the Iron Knight suddenly ran out in the alleyway, as if he was going to take the land route.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting the attention of a large number of dark creatures when you fly so high and run on top of buildings? I know something about Ash City. The Lord of Ash City is a very dangerous disaster-level dark creature. There are ten of them. Once Being entangled by one of the clones is extremely difficult to escape.”
The three of them stopped. The Iron Knight raised his head, and a deep voice came from under the metal mask. He looked at the two people on the roof on the right.
When Ka Xiu heard this, he turned back and glanced at the ghost.
The ghost man shook his head: "Sorry, my negligence. I didn't make it clear to the Iron Knight. After all, his attitude has been ambiguous before..."
"You two, please be more cautious. After all, this is a world full of dangers and disasters. If you are a little negligent, you may be doomed..."
The iron knight is still trying to persuade him kindly. It can be seen that he is very cautious.
A minute later, three figures flew past the top of the Ash City building. Although the movement was not big, it was definitely impossible to ignore. If it had been before, dark creatures would have leapt up and swarmed up.
However, as soon as the dark creatures in the streets on the ground were eager to attack and felt the terrifying aura of the leader, they immediately lowered their heads and hid in dormancy.
Some even hid in dark corners and shivered.
This is because Ka Xiu discovered the magical power of the golem's aura. If he drives the golem's secret weapon in a special way, he can imitate a bit of the terrifying aura of the ultimate dark body. This kind of breath is simply terrifying to dark creatures, and it is the dangerous smell of an apex predator.
Except for the disaster spirits, wild beasts and wild beasts are afraid to turn around and run away when they encounter Kaxiu.
This is an instinctive fear engraved in genes.
In addition, Ka Xiu also discovered a magical phenomenon. If he wraps his body with the spirit of a demon, the degree of disaster erosion will be greatly reduced.
It can only achieve one-third or even one-quarter of the original effect.
In other words, the time that Card Xiu can be exposed to the world of disaster has been greatly extended. It's about forty-five to sixty hours, two days to two and a half days. This also means that he can explore deeper.
Such as the pale earth, such as the shelter towers in other areas.
Ten minutes later, the group safely arrived at the shelter tower.
The expression on the face under the Iron Knight's mask was somewhat complicated. The partner he and Oni Ren collaborated with this time was indeed quite impressive. He could clearly see those vicious dark creatures along the way. His eyes became clearer after feeling Ka Xiu's breath. He looked like a mouse meeting a cat.
Plus what the ghost said before. There are no more ten Ash City Lords in Ash City, and now there are only four bereaved dogs that are hiding in Tibet.
The crystal core of Ash City Lord that can continuously restore clones was stolen by the ghost. As for the six clones that disappeared, they were all killed.
It's the one in front of me.
After all, Ash City is a small and remote area in the Pale Land. Apart from the Lord of Ash City, there are no truly terrifying dangers. Kaxiu has even eliminated the Lord of Ashes City, so he can naturally run amok in Ashes City.
The iron knight originally thought that the ghost man said that Kaxiu saved his life, which meant that he could snatch food from a powerful enemy and save the ghost man. Unexpectedly, in reality, Kaxiu rushed forward and chopped off the tiger's head with a knife, and the ghost man was naturally saved.
The two concepts are not on the same level at all.
The stone door opened and everyone entered the shelter tower.
The ghost man and the iron knight immediately felt the disaster in their bodies and gradually expelled it. The effect of the shelter mentioned by Cardius is true.
So, the two of them accepted the injection of Kaxiu's demonic seed. The location is the little finger of the left hand. Even if there is an accident, the cost of cutting it off is not very high.
After some rest, the first floor of the tower was illuminated by pale light.
The three of them clarified the main purpose of exploring the disaster world this time.
"Cemetery of the Undead"
As for the reason, of course, the Undead Cemetery is located in the southeast corner of the Pale Land, relatively close to Ashes City. In addition, the black energy and bloody light can be seen from a distance. This feature is easy to find and is the simplest.
The only thing you need to be wary of is that there are dark creatures in the Undead Cemetery. This is a disaster spirit with strong offensive and combat capabilities.
The real world and the disaster world are not the same. The immortality of the dark creatures here has been greatly improved, and the disaster spirits are almost immortal. Any disaster spirit. It is quite a tricky existence for souls of the same level.
This is why the Iron Knight was shocked when Kaxiu killed seven disaster spirits in a row. That requires crushing level strength and special means.
The two powerful forces of Nan Dou Boxing are undoubtedly the nemesis of immortality.
The reason why Card Xiu plans to search and explore the Undead Cemetery is because this place is likely to be related to the sages who created Nan Dou Boxing in ancient times. Perhaps, we can find some secrets left behind from those years.
It would be great if we could find traces of other Nandou boxing techniques there. Ka Xiu vaguely felt that he might have gained something this time.
Coming down from the second floor of the asylum tower, Card Xiu held a roll of parchment in his hand, which was a simple map of the pale earth. Relying on the soul's evidence and the sensing of the sheltering tower, he can find his position and direction.
Everything is ready, let's go...
