Chapter 147 The Fallen, Die
Zhu Zhuqing's second soul skill "Shadow Attack" can shuttle between shadows by consuming soul power.
As early as after the soul ring was restored, Tang San used the blue silver grass to cover a shadow channel around Gu You and the guards, so that Zhu Zhuqing could reach the guards as quickly as possible and let the soul king-level soul power destroy the human skin book.
The guard who had never seen the human skin book and only knew the group of fallen people was completely unaware of the role of this human skin book. He thought that this eye-catching human skin book was Klein's martial spirit, and the smoke was just the effect of the soul skill.
Now seeing that his second lady couldn't even maintain the state of martial spirit possession, her body was shaking as if she was about to fall down at any time, but she had to urge herself with her eyes.
The guard said no more, gathered soul power in his hand, and punched the human skin book. Cracks appeared on the face on the cover, as if it really exploded into pieces after wailing.
"No!!!!"
With the help of Huayanguai, he quickly broke free from Gu You, but he could only watch his precious "Book of Awakening" being blown up by a punch.
Gu You was fixed in the air by Huayanguai's telekinesis, and his body was stained with malice, with black spots appearing. Three balls of ghost fire surrounded him, and the scorching temperature caused Gu You's exoskeleton to change color and crack.
But as the human skin book broke, the keystone that originally emitted red light turned back to green light, and the blood color in Huayanguai's eyes dissipated, and he let out a piercing scream.
"Ha, the operation was successful."
The telekinesis of Huayanguai was lifted, and Gu You fell heavily to the ground. Although his whole body was in pain, he still had a bright smile on his face.
Gu You's current state is indeed a bit miserable, although the curse on his body has faded after Huayanguai didn't know what happened. But the pain after being squeezed by telekinesis is very strong. Gu You even felt that being poured into a cement pile was probably like this.
Most of the exoskeleton on his body was cracked, and the spikes on his back were broken off by the flower rock monster and inserted into his body. If it weren't for his strong defense and self-healing ability, Gu You even suspected that he would die from the comminuted fractures and increased bleeding.
He paid a heavy price, but it was all worth it. Looking at Klein who was a little lost, if he couldn't move his body, Gu You would have been ready to attack him.
A small blue silver grass was wrapped around Gu You's ankle. Life force continued to flow into Gu You's body.
"What are you doing! My greatest work!"
Klein's legs softened and he knelt on the ground. He had gone through a lot of trouble to find a century-level flower rock monster. He spent a year pretending to be the master of the Spirit Hall and pretending to be a disgusting "good man" just to have time to slowly cultivate the flower rock monster.
Klein looked at the flower rock monster screaming, but he was helpless. He stood up shakily, holding the keystone with one hand.
The black spots instantly spread upward along his hand. Without the human skin book as a buffer, the curse of the flower rock monster would not give him face just because he was a fallen person.
Klein didn't care about the curse. He said to the flower rock monster with gritted teeth: "Now, listen to me!"
The black ten thousand year soul ring lit up, and Klein blew out dark yellow smoke from his mouth, all of which poured into the body of the flower rock monster.
The fifth soul skill controls poison gas. Unlike the previous soul skills, this is a soul skill that can only be effective on one target at a time.
Paraside parasite, a soul beast that can parasitize in the body of a living being and manipulate it. This soul beast is not accepted by any soul beast because of its own bad ability, and it is impossible to reach the ten thousand year level.
However, in the great Holy Spirit Church, Klein accidentally got a ten thousand year soul bone during a massacre. He did not take it greedily, but chose to hand it in and received a reward from the top.
Among the various rewards, the one he chose was the ten thousand year level Paraside parasite cultivated by a soul master who cultivated various insects in the Holy Spirit Church.
The effect of controlling poison gas is very simple, that is, to control an individual. As one of the few brain-powered people in the Holy Spirit Church, Klein found that the effect of this soul skill was far more limited than he imagined.
The most fundamental thing is the confrontation of mental power. If one's mental power cannot suppress the target, not only will it be impossible to control it, but it will also be killed by the mental power that is pursuing the victory.
Moreover, this control is not permanent. After the control effect fades, the controlled object will still have resistance, and it will be more difficult to control it next time.
Logically speaking, Klein's mental power cannot be the opponent of the ten thousand year flower rock monster. But now the flower rock monster is in a very poor state. And as a mature soul beast, its mental power is not as good as other ten thousand year flower rock monsters that grow normally.
As a control-type soul master, Klein needs teammates to get out smoothly.
He can't escape the pursuit of the agile attack-type soul master who is also a soul king by himself, and he needs the flower rock monster to buy time to escape.
Under the effect of "controlling poison gas", the flower rock monster slowly straightened and swayed, the green light on the wedge stone pattern turned yellow, and the uncomfortable laugh came out of its mouth again.
"Hehehe, you guys are ready to die here." After saying this harsh word, Klein was ready to throw the keystone in his hand away, and then escape under the cover of poison gas.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Klein found that the keystone in his hand no longer emitted yellow light, but turned into white light.
Klein slowly raised his head, and the yellow-green facial organs in the purple cloud flame disappeared, turning into human faces, and without exception, all glared at Klein.
Yunyan broke free from the keystone and crashed directly into Klein's head. In an instant, Klein let out a scream that was ten times louder than when he hit his toe on the cabinet. The soul rings behind him flickered alternately, and various poisonous gases were sprayed out randomly as if they didn't have soul power. Xiao Wu, who originally rushed forward to attack, had no choice but to help Gu You retreat.
"Awei, it's Awei!"
Others may not be able to recognize the faces in Yunyan, but Zhao Jie, who has been with Zhao Wei day and night, can see Zhao Wei's face among the many faces at a glance.
Looking at the figure dancing in the smoke, Zhao Jie took a deep breath, forced his body to regain mobility in the fragrance, used the last of his soul power, and launched the third soul skill "Crash" again.
This time, Klein was unable to muster up his soul power to block the move, and Zhao Jie's fangs penetrated directly through Klein's chest.
With an incredulous expression, Klein breathed his last.
————————————————
"Thank you for your hard work, little brother. Cheers!"
Zhao Jie laughed heartily, raised his glass and poured it into his mouth.
Gu You and others also raised juices, and everyone enjoyed the food amidst laughter.
After paying a heavy price, everyone successfully blocked this beast wave.
Klein didn't walk peacefully. His body was thrown to the ground by Zhao Jie, and he died with his eyes open. Moreover, all the members of the Taixun Corps who were still alive stepped on his corpse.
But he probably didn't mind. Since he didn't say anything, he probably acquiesced.
Under the leadership of Gu You and others, the remaining Wuhun Palace soul masters found all the missing soul masters in the cave. There are even many ordinary people who are not soul masters mixed in.
In this regard, Gu You speculated that Klein might have originally planned to use the souls of ordinary people as nutrients to ripen the flower rock monster, but found that the effect was not as good as the souls of soul masters, so he finally chose soul masters.
Judging from the behavior of the Flower Rock Monster after losing the human skin book, even if Klein was not stopped by himself in the end and succeeded in killing everyone's souls to feed the Flower Rock Monster, his dream probably wouldn't last long.
The Huayan Monster itself is just a hundred-year-old soul beast, which has been forcibly accumulated to ten thousand years of cultivation by being fed by a large number of painful and desperate souls.
This is no different from the medicine upgrade in Xiuxian. There is no way for the flower rock monster to digest and absorb so many souls in a short time. There are too many human souls to a certain extent. In the end, he will break free from the shackles of the human skin book and fight back to kill Klein.
However, these are all Gu You's speculations. After all, Gu You is not planning to... at least not reading human skin books now, and he is not planning to play with souls. Therefore, there is no way to verify whether it is true or false.
Hearing that Gu You said that it was the information left by Zhao Wei that allowed them to find the opportunity to defeat Klein, Gu You also speculated how Zhao Wei left the information under such conditions. Everyone paid high tribute to this ordinary soul master.
After everyone was buried, support from other places arrived, and Gu You and others breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, I was invited by Zhao Jie to attend this dinner to celebrate everyone's survival.
"Speaking of which," Zhao Jie wiped his lips and asked, "Where's the young lady in black? Why didn't she come with you guys?"
When Zhao Jie asked about Zhu Zhuqing, Gu You said helplessly: "Brother Jie, she left very early."
After killing Klein, Zhu Zhuqing's guards took her away, and Gu You and others couldn't say goodbye even if they wanted to.
"That's such a pity." Zhao Jie shook his head. In fact, it wasn't that pity at all. He and Zhu Zhuqing were not familiar with each other, so he only asked more for Gu You's sake.
After drinking and eating, Zhao Jie took Gu You and his group to the reception room of the station. In addition to Li Tong, there was also Rogers, whom he had only met once.
"Hello, my name is Rogers. I was sent by Wuhun Palace to discuss the remuneration issue. Originally, the acting palace master was supposed to come, but he is too busy now, so he specially arranged for me to come."
"?" Isn't the mission I took on from the Taixun Group? What does it have to do with Wuhun Palace?
Seeing the doubt on Gu You's face, Li Tong explained: "We and Wuhundian both believe that we can win this time. The big reason is the contribution of your team."
"Otherwise, there is really no way for us alone to defeat that Fallen Soul King." Rogers said with a bitter smile. He is still troubled by the fact that his palace master is a Fallen. He always suspects the face of someone he doesn't know when he sees him. Not fake.
Shaking his head to get rid of the strange thoughts in his mind, Rogers said: "Based on your huge contribution, for this reason, we have decided that you can put forward anything that we have and can do. We will do our best to satisfy you."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally everyone's eyes stopped on Gu You.
"..."
Gu You thought for a while and said, "We want that keystone, is that okay?"
"Keystone?" Zhao Jie and Rogers looked at each other. Rogers said, "Little brother, are you sure?"
After it was confirmed that Huayan Monster was dead, the keystone was recovered by Wuhun Palace and sealed tightly. Wait until the support from other Wuhun Halls arrives, and then conduct a careful inspection. Finally came to the conclusion:
"This is just a patterned stone. Its only characteristic is that it is hard. There is nothing inside it."
Rogers didn't want Gu You to use the reward on a good-looking stone, and it wasn't very good-looking either.
He told Gu You the results of the inspection and suggested: "Even if you choose gold soul coins or gold and silver treasures, or let us be responsible for hunting down a soul ring for all of you, this wish is also okay."
Gu You was a little excited. He spent more money on soul guides than he thought. If he chooses gold soul coins, he can greatly alleviate the financial pressure.
If you choose the wedgestone, there may be some unexpected results in its research. But the probability of results is not 100%, and it is more likely that nothing will be researched.
Should you choose the gold soul coin with 100% return, or choose the wedgestone that may make you rich or bankrupt. This made Gu You hesitate.
Snap
Gu You turned his head and saw that it was Tang San who patted his back.
Tang San said, "Don't think about it, we want the wedgestone."
Seeing Gu You hesitating, Tang San knew that he was blinded by money. Tang San himself is a practical operator, and he knows exactly how many gold soul coins were burned to separate a small magic circle that converts soul power into light.
Tang San swore that if Gu You's hesitation was not because he spent too much money, he would smash the Clear Sky Hammer on his head. So he chose the wedgestone instead of Gu You.
He believed that since Gu You wanted to choose this thing, he must have his reasons. He had no reason to let Gu You pay for his dream.
"...Thanks, Xiao San."
"You're welcome, Xiao You."
Late at night, everyone who got the wedgestone returned to the hotel.
Seeing Gu You, who had taken out the stone and looked it up and down since returning to the room, Tang San couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Xiao You, what is the use of this stone you want?"
Gu You threw the stone to Tang San, "Xiao San, look at the pattern on this stone, what do you think it is used for?"
Tang San was a little speechless. Among all the people he knew, only Gu You would ask such a question. For others, they didn't need to know what it was used for, as long as they knew that it was the keystone of the flower rock monster.
Tang San didn't know how to describe Gu You's brain, which could analyze the power that a martial soul might have from the name of the martial soul, and proved it to be true afterwards.
Since he asked this, Tang San had to observe it carefully.
No matter how he looked at it, Tang San felt that the pattern on the stone was just a decoration, just for the sake of beauty. Even if he used the Purple Extreme Demon Eye to observe. He couldn't find anything special on the stone.
Gu You also knew that Tang San probably couldn't analyze anything. He took the stone and gently touched the pattern on it with his fingers. He said calmly:
"Xiao San, don't you think that the pattern on it looks like some kind of magic array similar to a soul guide?"
——————————————————
ps: This plot is finally over. I want to introduce Zhu Zhuqing, show the Holy Spirit Church, and depict the life of the supporting characters.
If you don't have the ability, don't be so ambitious. Next time, I will never do such a thankless job.
The last blow was completed by the supporting character in the outline. After thinking about it, I decided to leave it like this.
Klein's control was successful. He controlled the consciousness of the flower rock monster, but without the suppression of the flower rock monster's consciousness, the remaining human consciousness just ran out.
Finally, I have points to exchange for a leave slip. I will find a good day to ask for leave to play in the store competition. Please recommend and monthly votes~~~
