Chapter 336 A Sky Full of Crows, Stickers Claiming Lives, Cloth Dog Devouring the Sun (Bonus Chapter 2535)

"Who I am is not important; what matters is how you want to die."

Upon hearing this familiar rhetoric, the Serpent Envoy's face paled.

The opponent's abilities far exceeded his expectations. He did have a way to escape, but the problem was, where the hell was he?!
Even if you escape far away, what happens then?
The serpent, its head bowed, hardened its expression, and a serpent as thick as a finger emerged from its clothes.

In just a few breaths, the serpent grew from less than half a meter to four or five meters long and as thick as a wrist.

Seeing that the people in the underworld remained unresponsive even when he summoned the Nether Serpent, the Nether Serpent Envoy no longer hesitated and manipulated the Nether Serpent to bite off his own left arm.

After a brief, gushing out of blood, it was stopped by the Serpent Envoy.

"My lord, I was wrong just now. I apologize to the underworld."

After speaking, the Serpent Envoy waited quietly for the voice.

"Heh, that's interesting. Tell me what brings you here."

The serpent breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just a lost arm; it's good that he survives.

"The officials in the underworld must also know about that thing called Warm Sun that the Bureau of Public Opinion Survey came up with a few days ago. If that thing is really popularized in the mortal world, then we grassroots organizations will really only be able to live in the shadows."

"I suppose the lords of the underworld wouldn't want to see this either?"

After the Serpent Envoy finished speaking, he waited with a slightly uneasy feeling.

"You want the Underworld to fight against the Bureau of Investigation with you?"

Seeing that the other party had spoken, You Shi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, but not in the way adults imagine!"

"Our organization, the Divine Messenger, learned that the Bureau of Investigation's special equipment came from the Underworld. It seems that the Underworld and the Bureau of Investigation must have a friendly relationship."

“We hope that the underworld can use this relationship to find the source of the warm sun, and then our divine messengers will naturally go and solve that source.”

"In this way, the underworld doesn't need to get involved at all, and can even continue to get along amicably with the Bureau of Public Opinion."

"What does Your Majesty think?"

After speaking, the Serpent Envoy slightly raised his head and looked at the black figure on the high seat.

He looked away after just one glance.

What exactly is this thing?
As the serpent was pondering this, the voice rang out again.

"Heh, can you tell me why you divine messengers believe that the Underworld will part ways with the Bureau of Investigation and turn to cooperate with you shady rats?"

Upon hearing the word 'rat,' a cold glint flashed in the Serpent Envoy's eyes, but he quickly smiled and said:
"My lord, have you ever heard a saying?"

"When the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked."

"Today, the underworld and the Bureau of Investigation are allies and comrades-in-arms, but what about tomorrow?"

"After the elimination of folk organizations such as divine messengers and ghost servants, how should the underworld deal with itself?"

"Could it be that Your Excellency believes the Great Xia Dynasty would allow an entity like the Underworld to govern the Great Xia Dynasty alongside the Bureau of Investigation?"

"Could it be that, sir, you will have to take orders from those people from Great Xia?"

Seeing that the official remained silent, the Serpent Envoy's confidence grew even stronger.

"Human nature cannot be eradicated, so my mission as God is to abandon human form and follow in God's footsteps."

"My lord, let's cooperate with the Divine Envoy Organization. Humans should no longer dominate this world."

The serpent's eyes gleamed with fanaticism.

But as time went by, the person above still didn't speak, and the fervor in his eyes gradually faded.

"My lord, I know that this sudden cooperation is a bit abrupt, so I, your divine messenger, am willing to introduce a...god to the underworld!"

The Serpent Envoy stood up and stared directly at the dark figure in the seat.

"The real God!"

"If you don't believe me, sir, you can think about the cracks that have appeared in the Great Xia Dynasty."

"If it were not God's will, how could I, God's messenger, have accomplished these things?"

After the Serpent Envoy finished speaking, a hint of confidence shone in his eyes.

If the promises made can't move the underworld, what about offering real benefits?

Even the Bureau of Investigations has to grovel before God's curtain, let alone the Underworld!

"Who told you to stand up?"

Just when the Serpent Envoy thought his mission was about to be completed, he heard these words.

"what?"

The Serpent Envoy asked a question instinctively.

Then, he saw the black figure that suddenly appeared in front of him.

He tried to back away, but found that no matter how he retreated, the figure was still in front of him.

"Sir! What are you doing!"

The serpent was covered in sweat. He wanted to attack with his serpent, but he was afraid of angering his opponent.

Seeing that he couldn't dodge it, he had no choice but to stop.

Sweat trickled into the wound on his left shoulder, stinging his eyelids and making them twitch.

"You said you would introduce me to a god?"

“That’s right! If you don’t believe me, sir, you can come with me to see the messenger of the gods!”

After the serpent finished speaking, a soft laugh was suddenly heard.

"To see God? I don't want to see them."

The Serpent Envoy looked puzzled and asked urgently, "Why? Is there no trace of gods in the underworld? If there are no gods, where did those special equipment come from?"

"Heh, you really want to see God?"

"Naturally, none of the divine messengers do not wish to see God!"

After the serpent finished speaking, the dark figure seemed to nod.

"Then I'll send you to meet God."

Before the Serpent Envoy could understand what those words meant, he noticed the dark figure reach out and grab his shoulder.

A pulling force came, and the Serpent Envoy felt himself being pulled forward a few steps.

The surrounding environment had not changed, but his body inexplicably trembled.

"Where is this!"

When the serpent spoke, the hand that was holding him released him.

The surrounding environment was as if it had been splashed with ink, gradually becoming dark and dim, and finally completely silent.

When the Serpent Envoy was enveloped in boundless darkness, he panicked.

He tried to run backward, but found that there was no soil under his feet.

He is suspended in mid-air!
"Where is this, sir? Let me out! The divine messenger has come with sincerity!"

"In times of war, envoys are not to be killed!"

"grown ups!"

"Let me out! You fucking let me out!"

After screaming for an unknown amount of time, the Serpent Envoy realized that further screaming was useless.

With a gloomy expression, he immediately unleashed countless ghostly snakes from his body, which then shot out in all directions.

He closed his eyes and sensed the condition of the ghostly snakes.

About five minutes later, the Serpent opened his eyes with a grim expression.

Only one message came back from the hundreds of ghost snakes.

Nothingness, utter nothingness.

Up, down, left, right, and all directions were nothing but emptiness, there was nothing at all!

"Where exactly is this place? The Underworld? No, the Underworld isn't like this!"

The serpent filled him with fear and rage, and the wound on his left arm began to bleed again due to the surge of blood and qi.

"No, I can't give up. I can't die here. I haven't seen God yet. I must live!"

Immediately, the Serpent Master continued to steer the Serpent to explore further afield.

At one moment, a ghostly snake suddenly disappeared from his perception.

The Serpent Envoy was taken aback, but then a look of joy appeared on his face.

The worst thing is for things to remain unchanged. Since there are changes, it means there are opportunities.

Immediately, he dispatched all the ghost snakes in that direction to explore that location. Instead of concentrating all the ghost snakes in one place, he arranged them in a checkerboard pattern, one snake every hundred meters, searching in that direction.

He planned to use this method to explore the specific situation of that location.

The idea was good, but the outcome was not.

After all the ghostly snakes had passed by in a line, in just one instant, all the ghostly snakes in the front row disappeared.

While they were still in a daze, the other ghost snakes that were slightly behind also disappeared one after another.

After the Serpent Master reacted and stopped the remaining dozen or so serpents, cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

what is that?
The Serpent King sensed something was wrong and prepared to withdraw the snakes, but the snakes... disappeared.

Even though he didn't control the ghostly snakes to keep getting closer, all ten or so ghostly snakes disappeared!
As if he had thought of something, the Serpent Envoy's expression changed drastically.

If the snake didn't move, then what moved?
it goes without saying!

Just as the Serpent Envoy was about to grab the Serpent and take him away, he heard the sound of water and waves.

I turned my head and looked into the darkness, but there was nothing there.

The Serpent Master threw out a snake, and the crimson light on the snake's body illuminated a small area of ​​space.

Then he saw a river, and saw the limbs, bones, and snake carcasses that kept floating in the river.

He wanted to escape, but when he saw the river, his body was already moving towards it.

Even though he couldn't gain any leverage in this void, he was now floating in mid-air, walking towards the river.

Until the river water submerged his body.

The rushing sound faded away, and darkness enveloped the surroundings once more.

……

After the river submerged the Serpent Envoy, Chen Xin also lost the perspective from the stickers on the Serpent Envoy's body.

Shaking his head, Chen Xin stopped paying attention to that space.

Seeing Li Gongyang standing under the tree, seemingly unsure of what to do, Chen Xin waved his hand, and Li Gongyang's raven feather raincoat was removed, transforming into a raven feather that flew into Chen Xin's hand.

This is the [Raven Cloak] ability that the Raven Prophet gains after advancing to the Yama level.

A Yama-level Raven Prophet can transform into a raven feather raincoat and shroud the target. At the same time, the raven feathers that are split off through [Parallel Feathers] also have the same ability.

The limitation on the number of "feathers" for a Raven Prophet who has advanced to the Yama level has increased from a hundred to ten thousand. To reach the point of unlimited "feathers", it is possible to advance to the next level.

Although it's a pity, the [Crow's Cloak] is enough to make up for it.

A person wearing a raven feather raincoat can either control the raincoat or be controlled by it.

The so-called manipulation refers to everything Li Gongyang experienced before; everything was being manipulated by Chen Xin, and Li Gongyang was just a spectator trapped inside a 'Gundam'.

The raven feather raincoat might not mean much to Chen Xin, but it was definitely a legendary piece of equipment for the underworld officials.

When you put on a raven feather raincoat, the raven feathers' warning ability will be synchronized with the person wearing the raincoat, which feels like expanding your perception range.

In addition to providing early warnings, the Raven Feather Raincoat also has the ability to disappear into the darkness, shoot out raven feathers, and transform into a black raven.

The first two are easy to understand. As for the ability to transform into a black crow, it can be used as a movement ability or a means of escaping.

When encountering an insurmountable enemy, one can transform into dozens of black crows and fly away. As long as the enemy fails to hit the real crow, nothing will happen.

As for Li Gongyang's ability to disappear as a raven feather, that was the ability of the Raven Prophet to summon the raven feathers that had already been separated from him.

Before Yama, the Raven Prophet could only summon back one raven feather. After Yama, the Raven Prophet could summon back both the raven feather and the person covered by it. This was more convenient than Chen Xin's method of using Tusu wine and a fishhook to pull people back, and even more effective than the Tongyou Seal in terms of the number of times it could be used.

In addition, the Raven Feather Raincoat also has a hidden ability called Raven Formation.

This ability requires multiple people wearing raven feather raincoats to be together to activate.

The more people there are, the more black crows they can transform into.

Two people can form a Hundred Crows Formation, ten people can form a Thousand Crows Formation, eighteen people can form a Ten Thousand Crows Formation, thirty-six people... a Hundred Thousand Crows Formation!
Within the crow formation, each black crow possesses the strength of a Yin-Yang level black crow.

Even if they are outmatched, it will be difficult to find the real black crows hiding among them unless the enemy eliminates all the black crows in the crow formation.

This hidden ability can be used by the Raven Prophet, but it is very difficult to control. Chen Xin cannot control 100,000 black crows himself, nor can the Raven Prophet. He can only give a general instruction.

However, if there are thirty-six people in the Thousand Crows Formation, it is equivalent to having thirty-six control centers.

The difference between single-threaded and thirty-six-threaded is naturally significant.

Upon discovering this hidden ability, Chen Xin immediately thought of the underworld officials.

If the underworld officials were to gather together, under the Hundred Thousand Crows Formation, even if Chen Xin himself did not take action, the ghosts and spirits of an entire underworld region might be wiped out by this formation.

Thus, Chen Xin had the idea of ​​gathering thirty-six underworld officials as soon as possible.

In that case, wouldn't having the Raven Prophet lead these underworld messengers help him sweep through the gray underworld region? The black region isn't out of the question either.

At that time, it's not impossible for one's merit points to reach a million a day.

With a smile in his heart, Chen Xin threw the raven feather in his hand onto Li Gongyang below again, so that the raven feather raincoat could cover him once more.

At the same time, he sent the Crow Prophet down to inform Li Gongyang of the Crow Feather Raincoat's abilities.

As for Chen Xin, he looked at the small sticker in his hand.

【Stickers】is an ability that comes with the advancement of the Stand Papercutting.

The illusion can differentiate into stickers. Each tiny sticker, once placed on the target, will automatically acquire the target's birth date and other information, and in some mysterious way, imprint it into the sticker, making the sticker a substitute for the target.

These stickers have the effect of creating a paper cutout, but this is only the most basic ability.

When someone has multiple stickers, they can teleport using the stickers without needing to control an avatar.

"Teleportation" is a term Chen Xin used to describe this ability; in reality, this ability should be used when encountering danger.

At that time, the sticker can swap positions with the target, allowing the user to avoid danger and leave the original location.

Therefore, calling it a teleportation ability is perfectly accurate.

This is one way of using it; another way is to control the stickers through the 'original body', the illusionary form.

Once a target is attached, the illusion can move it to the position of another sticker, or teleport it to the illusion's side.

The previous Serpent Envoy was obtained by exchanging him from the Ding family villa in this way.

Therefore, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the stickers are deadly.

Although the Stand Papercut still has no offensive capabilities after advancing to the Yama level, it is enough for the Stand Papercut.

Besides the stand-in paper cutouts and the Crow Prophet, there's also the cloth dog.

Compared to the new abilities of the previous two, Bulldog's [Swallow the Sun] seems rather conventional.

The Yang-absorbing technique can store Yang energy within the cloth dog's body. This Yang energy can be transformed into a special substance that nourishes the soul within the cloth dog's body.

In other words, the ghost of the Nine Days level can gradually increase its rank within the body of the Yama-level Cloth Dog.

Given enough time, even the Black Abyss won't be a problem.

At the same time, the soul separated from the dog's [tooth marks] can also be repaired by [devouring the sun], which can be considered a complementary ability.

Of course, the yang energy swallowed into the body has another use: self-destruction!

After Chicken Bro, the second item that can self-destruct has appeared.

However, compared to Brother Chicken, Chen Xin felt that even if Bu Gou absorbed and released Yang energy to its maximum, he might not be able to match Brother Chicken's self-destruction.

After all, Chicken Bro focused all his upgrade points on attack power from beginning to end, while Bulldog only had one last ability that 'came with' a self-destruct.

One is a specialist, the other is a part-time job; naturally, there will be differences.

However, when Chen Xin saw the Heavenly Seal in the Town Seal, he had other ideas.

If a Pot Heaven Seal were imprinted on a cloth dog, storing the swallowed yang energy into the Pot Heaven space, what would be the effect of detonating the yang energy in the Pot Heaven space during an explosion?
Chen Xin was somewhat eager to act, but he knew he couldn't rush things.

We can finish other things first and then deal with this later.

Looking at the somewhat uneasy underworld official below, Chen Xin knew that there were some things he needed to do.

After summoning the Raven Prophet, Chen Xin executed the recall order through the Raven Prophet.

……

At the same time, in multiple cities of the Great Xia Dynasty, the underworld messengers, whether sleeping, working, or discussing something with the Bureau of Investigation personnel, were all hit by a crow feather.

After being covered in raven feather raincoats, the underworld messengers all disappeared from the spot.

This change directly shocked certain people and certain entities.

When the underworld officials reappeared, dressed in raven feather raincoats, they saw the enormous banyan tree and the black mist figure sitting on a throne woven from the tree's aerial roots.

Just as everyone was shocked by this sudden change, the Raven Prophet's familiar voice appeared.

"Now that you have seen the Lord of the Underworld, why do you, the underworld officials, not kneel down?"

……
