Chapter 12 The Holy Medicine of the Dead
"I have another trick." Emmenis said confidently: "When I conquered the Blazers, he was just as disobedient as Sayoko."
"Then how did you do it?"
"Hit him until he's convinced."
"Brilliant move." I pushed Amynis forward: "This glorious and arduous mission is left to you."
"I'm not kidding, this trick really works."
"Maybe, but I don't have time." I opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and released the peppers. "Start mind control."
Pepper looked at Sayoko and said, "It might be troublesome to use mental control directly on the soul body, and her willpower is too strong, I may not be able to control her!"
"Then use spiritual indoctrination."
"What to enter?"
"Of all the sad and painful things you know, it makes her cry the best."
"No problem, I've watched "Emotional Drama"." Chili has a real body, so he knows much more than ordinary familiars.
"Then use that. If you can't completely control it, just input it a little bit. Anyway, it will interfere with her normal thoughts. Amynis, cooperate with Chili Pepper and use illusions to create a false film environment to stimulate her mental reaction."
Sayoko said angrily: "It's useless what you put in." As she said that, she rushed up again, but she stopped halfway. Sayoko glared at Chili Pepper and asked, "What are you doing? Don't touch my mind."
Chili closed her eyes and pressed her temples with both hands. Amynis put his hands on Chili's shoulders to facilitate communication, and at the same time created an illusory space nearby. The surrounding scenery suddenly disappeared, and we appeared in a park-like place. My image turned into an old man, while Sayoko herself turned into a middle school student. This is obviously from the world outside the game, but Amynis can transform into any environment. This is the advantage of camouflage.
Sayoko looked at me. But the long-clawed hands were trembling constantly, and his thoughts were obviously confused. Her expression was quite fierce, but tears kept flowing from the corners of her eyes. When this technique is used against ordinary enemies, it may directly drive them crazy, but Sayoko is one of her own now and is protected by the system and will not go crazy. However, the mental attack will still subtly change her thinking. This cheating-like method of increasing loyalty is very troublesome, but the effect is also very good. Especially when communication is almost impossible.
I checked the attributes and found that Sayoko's loyalty had risen to three points, which was at least higher than zero. Turning to look at Sayoko, I started to say to Sayoko in the same way as in the TV plot: "Don't hate me anymore, I'm doing it for your own good." This was to cooperate with the mental attack to further confuse Sayoko's thinking. As long as her final direction is broken, once the spiritual door is lost, we can immediately tamper with most of her memories and completely capture her spirit.
Chili suddenly frowned. "Master, she is resisting. The ideological resistance is very strong."
I said to Ling: "Think of a way."
Ling said: "Magic doesn't work on her."
Xiao Longnu said: "I can help Chili!"
"This is doable!" Ling directly added a mental enhancement to Chili to temporarily increase her mental strength.
Chili said: "It's much better now, but I can't hold on for long."
I said to her: "Just do your best!"
Sayoko's reaction became more and more abnormal. Forced mental tampering was not so easy to take effect, especially when the willpower of both parties was not much different. However, it has to be said that Chili Pepper is a powerful mental manipulator, and Sayoko's loyalty continues to rise in this confused state. When her loyalty exceeded 20, she no longer raised her sword to cut me. Instead, he stood there and looked at us in confusion.
Chili's head was sweating, and it was obvious that he couldn't hold it any longer. Amynis is close to her and can directly feel the changes in her power. She said to me on behalf of Chili: "Master, Chili's power is almost exhausted. How loyal is Sayoko?"
"Thirty-two. Just hold on a little longer. It must be at least over forty."
"We try our best."
As the control gradually strengthened, Sayoko's behavior became calmer and calmer. Although her eyes were still confused, she generally regained her energy. Suddenly a throwing spear flew over from the side, Ye Yue reacted quickly and knocked the throwing spear away with her tail. But then a large number of spears flew over, and no matter how powerful Yeyue was, she couldn't stop so many.
Suddenly, a big tail swept past us with a whining sound, knocking all the throwing spears away with a clatter. The good fortune of not being online for many days actually appeared in front of us. "It seems like it can't work without me!"
"Why are you up here?" I looked at Lucky in surprise. "How's the little one doing?"
Lucky smiled at me: "It's okay, my mother is taking care of me. I don't have to worry about it anymore. Children should let go more. If you take good care of them, they won't grow up."
"Have you only been a father for a few days? Have you gained insights into life so quickly?"
"I am a giant dragon, an existence that surpasses human intelligence. If you have enough understanding, you can have many things like perception, but what is going on now? Why is it so 'chaotic'?"
"Anyway, you can help us resist first and don't let anyone disturb us."
"Ming..." As soon as Lucky said a word, he suddenly turned around and slapped it with his claw. With a loud bang, a private house was smashed to the ground, and three black figures bounced out from behind the house. Someone actually took advantage of our use of mental magic to get so close to us. It's really dangerous. We were too focused on what was happening on the field just now. I completely forgot to pay attention to the situation around me.
The three black figures did not leave after they bounced away. Instead, they flicked on the ground and bounced towards the center. Luck moves the fastest. With a grab, it swept across the ground, and one of the black figures' path was blocked. He had no choice but to stop and bounce back, but the other two people bypassed Lucky and came towards us.
Yeyue turned around and faced one of them, while Xiao Longnu and Ling attacked the other one. But these two guys were very fast, and Ye Yue took advantage of her many weapons and eye skills to stop one of them. Xiao Longnu and Ling did not block it. The other demon pets and I went to block it, but unfortunately we were a little late and none of them could catch up.
Just when the black shadow was about to reach behind Chili Pepper and Amynis, a silver spear flew over from the side and collided with the black shadow, knocking him out of shape. The black shadow paused for a moment and then immediately moved forward again. He was optimistic about the target and was determined to win it. We are all too far away now, and no one can stop this guy in time to stop his attack, and Chili Pepper and Emmenis can't interrupt easily.
Just when he was about to get close to Amynis and Chili Pepper. But they both suddenly fell down at the same time. The black shadow was stunned for a moment. Before he touched anyone, the target actually fell down on his own. This surprised him. However, he quickly reacted and prepared to hit the two targets on the ground who had lost the ability to resist with another blow, but What’s more surprising is yet to come. A white figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and two hands with long nails thrust into his chest at the same time.
Sombra is actually a ninja. With no protective equipment on his chest, this attack would be quite fatal to him. However, the advantage of the ninja is that he is fast enough. He quickly dodged and retreated. Unfortunately, in his hurry, he forgot that there were enemies behind him. A sharp Azure Dragon Sword pierced his vest, and the ninja died almost instantly. Xiao Longnu's sword hit her heart. The key attack will kill you in one hit as long as you penetrate it, leaving no room for discussion.
Sayoko actually saved Pepper and Amynis. The ninja was shocked by Sayoko's behavior, and we were also surprised. I looked at the subordinate 'sex' again. Sayoko's loyalty was forty-three, and Chili increased her loyalty to over forty before she fainted. Once I pass this minimum standard, it will be easier for me to deal with subsequent problems. Sayoko's ability to take the initiative to protect her companions is a good illustration.
"Sayoko." Amynis helped Chili stand up from the ground, and she hugged Sayoko. "Thank you." Other demon pets came over and patted Sayoko to express their gratitude.
Sayoko's loyalty actually increased by two points in gratitude. This is the advantage of having more magic pets. As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. My team of demon pets is a small society. Everyone in this society is harmonious and treats each other like family members. Even if Sayoko doesn't get along with others, she will be quickly brought into such a harmonious atmosphere in this environment. This kind of environmental influence is often more effective than relying solely on the owner's care to enhance loyalty.
Just as everyone was thanking Sayoko, a shining silver arrow flew over from nowhere. Everyone was thanking Sayoko, so they didn't notice this thing. I was the only one standing on the periphery, so I saw it. Almost out of habit, I flew forward to block the arrow. Neither the mercury shield nor the red Zerg magic shield could stop it, but the arrow that had penetrated two layers of protective shields had no power. , was blocked by the magic dragon armor. Sayoko looked at me with some surprise and confusion. Then he seemed to think about it.
The guy who 'shoots' the arrow is the archer among those people who appeared at the beginning. There are other players around him. I don't know why rb people suddenly become so righteous. There are people who usually act as heroes to save NPCs, but those are just trivial matters. And it usually depends on your own strength. But these guys seem to be risking their lives to protect Sayoko. This behavior is really great. I started to admire them a little.
Just when I was thinking wildly, the archer spoke. "I don't care what you want to do, just hand over the stolen crystal quickly, otherwise we will never be done with you."
faint. I took back what I just wanted to do. I wonder why these guys suddenly changed their gender! It turned out that he was not here to save Sayoko, but for those crystals. When they appear for the first time, they may think they are completing a small task. After all, helping NPCs usually results in rewards, so players generally don't mind doing more of this kind of thing. But it would be abnormal to do it after knowing that we are not easy to mess with. Now it seems that they are not that great at all, they just don't want to lose those crystals. The only thing that makes me wonder is what on earth do they want with this completely non-sexual thing?
"You brought so many people to fight against me just for these crappy things?" I grabbed a few crystals and played with them in my hands.
Before the other party could answer, the crystal in my hand suddenly lit up with a red light, and then the mountains in the distance suddenly lit up, and then I saw thousands of colorful lights piercing the sky and flying above our heads. Shoot through.
The players who were attacking us all stopped and looked at the colorful lights flying in the sky in a daze. The archer muttered to himself: "Oops, we are still one step late. They have already started!"
"Start with what?" I didn't know what happened just now.
The archer was probably stunned by what happened. He actually didn't notice who was asking. He raised his head and looked at the colorful lights shooting out in all directions and said, "Of course the Ghost King's seal has been broken."
"Ghost King? Seal?"
The archer came to his senses and stopped answering my questions. Instead, he faced me again and said, "Hand over the crystal. We don't want to fight you, and you definitely don't want to fight us. Let's just end it like this, okay?" ?”
Sha Yezi suddenly walked up to me and whispered: "Don't agree to him. Those are soul crystals. Very precious things."
I glanced at Sayoko gratefully. "Hey, listen, the only way to avoid fighting is to leave immediately. There are no conditions to negotiate."
"You really don't know how to lift up!" The archer on the opposite side was obviously angry. He raised his hand and shot an arrow.
The battle began again, but this time in a different form. Just now, trying to find a way to increase Sayoko's loyalty was equivalent to opening two battlefields. And not all the demon pets were released. Now as long as we deal with one side, and all my demon pets are released, the balance of power will naturally tilt towards our side. With the cooperation of high-level demon pets, the evil spirit knight's lethality was greatly increased, and the nearby enemies were quickly cleared. Taking back most of the magic pets and summoned creatures, leaving only Ling, Xiao Longnu, Yeyue and Sha Yezi around. He rode Lucky and flew in the direction of the mountains that glowed just now, and he could also ask about the Soul Crystal.
The battlefield is indeed the best place to cultivate feelings. After the first battle, Sayoko's loyalty soared to fifty-one, and her attitude improved significantly after the halfway point. At least he no longer shows any disgust towards me. Along the way, we roughly sorted out some situations with the help of the knowledge of several magic pets and Sha Yezi's understanding.
The crystal with poor light transmittance that I got from those players is not actually a crystal. This kind of thing is called a soul crystal, and I have actually been to its place of origin. Soul crystal is a kind of crystal formed by the disordered arrangement of dissipated soul energy and subject to strong pressure of thought. Its main origin is the seabed of the Sea of Silence.
When a normal creature dies, a soul creature will be produced. If the soul dies again, it will be gone. But these dissipated souls carry some energy, and this energy will not disappear for no reason, on the contrary. They gather in various low-lying areas. Although energy has no weight, you can think of this energy as a substance with a large specific gravity, so it gathers in low-lying places. Generally speaking, this energy can be absorbed by undead creatures after gathering in low-lying areas and converted into their own power. However, in some places where there are no soul creatures, this energy does not dissipate all year round and accumulates more and more. If there is a strong willpower nearby to create mental pressure at this time, then these energies will gather and crystallize. The last thing produced is the soul crystal.
According to Sayoko. Real soul crystals are actually not like this. The soul crystals we got are relatively low-quality soul crystals. They are formed by special factors in some caves or special environments. Since there is not a lot of energy gathered, and generally there is no decent pressure, the purity of the crystallized soul crystal is not high, and the color is also white. There is also a relatively common type of soul crystal that comes from various rivers of souls in the underworld. In fact, the Sea of Silence is formed by the convergence of these rivers of souls. A kind of silver-grey soul crystal will be produced in these rivers. It is completely opaque and looks like a piece of tin. In fact, this kind of soul crystal is the most common type, because their quality is good, their origin is very stable, and their output is high. But on top of this, there is also a black soul crystal, which is somewhat like black crystal, and that is the best among soul crystals. This kind of soul crystal is only produced at the bottom of the Sea of Silence. Because almost no one goes down there, there is almost no production. Sayoko said she had only heard of such a thing, but had never seen it.
Ling, Xiao Longnu and Ye Yue all said they had heard of such a thing, but the names were different. Soul crystals seem to have different names in different regions, but if you compare them, you can still be sure that they are the same thing. According to Ling's description, the Soul Crystal produced by Silent Sea is basically like a sweaty dinner. Everyone has heard of it, but no one has actually eaten it. Everyone has heard of this black soul crystal, but has never seen it before.
Ling had owned silver-gray soul crystals before when she was a goddess, but she had only used a small amount. After all, the so-called large output was relative. After all, soul crystals are still soul crystals and will not be produced in tons like coal mines. As for this white soul crystal, it can be considered to be a very rare thing, but not of much use.
Speaking of which, the biggest and only function of soul crystals is to increase the energy of the undead. There are many uses for this energy. For example, dark mages and necromancers can directly use it as magic medicine, and it can be restored instantly without any delay. Or these two types of mages can also use soul crystals to embed them on weapons or armor. If added to weapons, the attack power of undead magic will be greatly increased, and physical attacks will also carry cold attribute damage. As for the armor, it can be replenished with dark magic power after being embedded with soul crystals, and it is said that the magic regeneration speed is very fast. Unfortunately, other types of magicians cannot use it, otherwise, instead of replenishing the magic power, the magic power will be absorbed in reverse.
In addition to inlaying, undead energy itself is also the main source of energy for undead creatures. It can be used as food for undead creatures, and can also be used as props to enhance their strength. Anyway, soul crystals are to the undead what ginseng is to humans.
During the communication, I realized that Sayoko's decision not to let me hand over these soul crystals just now was not for my own sake, but because she was interested in these things. Sayoko is an out-and-out undead. She can directly absorb the energy of the soul crystal, and it is much more effective than directly sucking other people's blood or devouring other undead.
I opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and asked about the magic pets, and I was surprised to find that this thing is as useful as pet food to me. My demon pets Zhong Er and Sayoko can directly swallow this thing to permanently increase their strength. Ling and some other dark demon pets can use this as a recovery potion. But the real boss is still with the Evil Spirit Knight and the Ring Knight. They are all undead creatures. This thing is an elixir to them, and the goblins and ghost bugs on my body can also eat this thing. This is my army ration. Sayoko said that if you can get a lot of these things, you can even upgrade the Evil Spirit Knight to the level of the Ring Knight, and the Ring Knight can continue to rise to other forms. Theoretically speaking, as long as the supply of soul crystals is open, any undead can be powerful to the level of a god.
While the usefulness is great, the disappointment is just as great. The production of soul crystals can be ignored, and there is no hope of using them as military rations to feed the evil spirit knights. According to Sayoko, it would be a miracle to meet her needs. She wanted to distribute them to the army unless there was a way to mine the soul crystals in the Sea of Silence. It is said that the soul crystals there are not only of high quality, but also of large quantity. But those things are all gathered in the depths of the trench of the Sea of Silence, but a single touch of the water in the Sea of Silence can kill people. Who would go down to the bottom of the sea to fish for these things? The water of the soul that can corrode everything is a line of defense that cannot be broken through, otherwise, even the Styx ferries used by the gods in Egypt would not touch the ground.
After understanding the matter, we also arrived at the approximate location where the explosion just occurred. Although it was far away and we could not see the specific location clearly, we do not want to confirm the location at all now, because there are groups of various creatures below gathering together, which is really the most dangerous place. Eye-catching logo.
