Chapter 180 Soul Crystal
However.
The necessary control should still be there.
The human mind is extremely complex and changeable. He never believes in so-called loyalty and oaths.
These things certainly exist, but he is too lazy to spend time cultivating or testing others' loyalty to him. It is better to use magic directly, which is simple, direct and reliable.
Lu He thought about it. Since this evil god believer is so afraid of death, he should control him with the threat of death.
"The bite of Nathos."
The deep darkness in Lu He's eyes flashed, and he chanted a few tongue-twisting spells in his mouth, and pointed his right hand forward.
A wisp of white mist spit out from his fingertips, and slowly condensed into a white skull in the air.
This skull seemed to be completely illusory. It came to Gust in an instant, and its empty eye sockets looked directly at him, which made Gust have a bad premonition in his heart.
Then, the skull pounced directly on him, opened its big mouth and bit his neck hard.
Two black holes instantly appeared on his neck, forming a twisted and weird rune.
Gust subconsciously touched his neck, but didn't feel anything, but he still intuitively felt something was wrong.
And the eyes of the people around him made him panic, and the fear that was slowly dissipating was raised again in an instant.
After the undead curse was planted, Lu He felt that the evil god believer was much more pleasing to the eye and cute when he looked at him again.
He smiled and asked, "What are the items you use to collect souls? Take them out and show me."
Gust's tense heart relaxed instantly. He knew that his life should be saved for a short time, so he raised his hand and pointed to the abandoned camp next to him and said:
"There is a red wooden box in the black box in the corner, and the sacrificial container is in the box."
Du Tan heard it and immediately walked to the corner.
He didn't know what the sacrificial container was, but he knew it was the owner's thing.
There was a reason for being so active.
Since he swore allegiance to the owner, he felt that he had not made any help or contribution, nothing.
Except driving the car, he was like a waste.
I wanted to show off in the battle just now, but it was over without firing a single arrow.
Unlike senior Mark, who at least shouted a few slogans.
After arriving at the corner of the camp where items were piled, he quickly found the red wooden box mentioned by the evil god believers.
Then, he took the box and trotted a few steps to the front of the owner.
The moment Lu He saw the wooden box, he realized that something was wrong.
The wooden box was not big, about ten centimeters long and wide, with a dark red exterior, and was covered with dense, slender black symbols like elongated tadpoles.
He couldn't understand this symbol.
You know, he is definitely knowledgeable, not to mention being well-educated and talented, but among the first-level wizards, he is conceited that no one can compare to him.
Even the second-level wizards may not be as good as him.
Lu He has been studying in the Eye of Inheritance for many years, and he has this confidence. Although he can't use many things, he knows what they are and what they are used for.
He was not inferior to any wizard of level 2 or below in terms of talking big on paper.
But he could not understand the symbols on the surface of this wooden box.
"Open it."
Thinking of the three-eyed phantom snake, Lu He hesitated for a moment and did not take it, but asked Du Tan for help.
He laid light energy particles on the surface of his body.
He did not think it would be very dangerous, because there was nothing wrong with the body and soul of the surrendered evil god believer.
It was just a habit.
Du Tan did not think much about it. In his mind, the head of the family had always been lazy, the kind of lazy that would never do anything if he could talk.
When he saw what was in the box, Lu He's eyes showed an undisguised surprise.
A prismatic muddy white crystal floated quietly in the box, and complex runes were engraved on the surface of the crystal. These runes seemed to be swimming slender snakes, integrated with the crystal, as if they were naturally generated.
The crystal flashed a hazy brilliance.
Lu He sensed that an extremely pure soul power was emanating from the crystal.
Soul crystal!
It turned out to be a soul crystal. Lu He wanted to laugh out loud.
】
This time, he chased and killed the enemy. His original plan was to do justice for the heavens and see if he could get some good things.
Because he saw from the bloody sacrifice in the valley that the sacrifice was a soul, and the sacrifice was not successful. When he did not get a response, he knew that there was a high probability.
Soul sacrifice is not that simple. It is not that you kill the living beings, collect the souls and offer them to the sacrifice object.
This involves instruments for absorbing and holding souls, as well as instruments for filtering soul impurities.
Of course, it can also be a rough sacrifice.
But he felt that since believers were sacrificing their own beliefs, it would definitely not be that simple.
Just like writing a report for your boss, you have to make it exquisite and beautiful.
As a result, he was not disappointed.
The soul power contained in this soul crystal is particularly pure, without any impurities, and can be absorbed directly.
He can't do this kind of soul purity, even a first-level wizard can't do it.
In fact, he knew many ways to make it, and he basically understood the principles, but his ability was limited, so he just couldn't do it.
He felt that the soul power contained in this soul crystal could greatly speed up his recovery.
"Good people still get good rewards." Lu He sighed.
He didn't absorb it immediately, and told Dutan to put the box away. He wanted to study it first and confirm that there was no problem before using it.
After asking some more questions, he returned the same way.
...
It was already late when he returned to the valley.
He didn't continue to travel, and began to set up camp on the spot.
Jose began to command, using the cut vines and trees to stick into the ground around to form a simple fence.
Then he began to erect the tents brought from the carriage one by one.
The carriage surrounded the outermost perimeter to form a simple barrier.
It was completed in a short while.
The temperature difference between day and night in the Traorin area is very large. It is more than 20 degrees during the day, and it has dropped below zero at this time.
Fortunately, except for the little maid Nicole, the rest are knight-level extraordinary, and none of them are afraid of cold.
The pale yellow bonfire was lit in the middle of the camp, and then several bonfires were lit on the periphery.
Mark arranged the personnel to guard the camp at night.
Jose said that the night in Traorin was very dangerous. In addition to various wild beasts and fierce beasts, there were also robbers. If they went further in, they would face attacks from barbarians.
After the temperature in the camp rose, Nicole began to take food and cooking utensils from the carriage to prepare supper.
The staple food was the wild beasts she met on the way back. She prepared to make soup and barbecue.
Lu He sat in the tent and observed the soul crystal for a while before carefully interrogating the evil god believer Gust.
He understood their behavior and purpose.
The reason for coming here from the Duma Empire across the Western State was simple.
Because they had a bad reputation in the local area, they could still stand firm with the three-eyed phantom snake as their backer.
But the situation changed more than a hundred years ago.
For some unknown reason, they could no longer get a response from the three-eyed phantom snake. Even if they held several large-scale sacrifices, it was useless. The three-eyed phantom snake seemed to have disappeared.
Without the help of the three-eyed phantom snake, the church gradually began to weaken. After more than a hundred years, it became increasingly difficult to survive, and now it can no longer support itself.
Especially in recent years, let alone offering sacrifices, even the head dare not show up, and will be beaten up if there is any movement.
So they thought of starting business again in a new place.
They are pioneers. After getting familiar with the situation here, the entire church will move here.
Then when they came here, they couldn't resist the temptation and held the first sacrificial ceremony.
As a result, they were caught by Lu He.
After listening to his story, Lu He felt speechless. With their behavior, they would be condemned by everyone wherever they went.
But in addition to this, Lu He noticed a lot of other information from Gust.
For example, the time when the three-eyed phantom snake disappeared seemed to coincide with the time when the extraordinary world was hidden.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or a connection.
