Mystery: From the Shadow World

Chapter 116: Creeping Hunger

Under the dual effects of werewolf toxin and biological bottle toxin, Qilingos, who originally had some resistance, completely lost his concentrated attention in the face of the pain of the disease, and gradually lost his vitality in the fight against the "ghost possession".

After the corpse of Qilingos, the Sequence Six Wind-Blessed One, lay silent for a few seconds, Sharon, dressed in a black court dress, quietly emerged from the void. Her azure eyes gazed at Philip, who was eagerly removing his black gloves, and she spoke indifferently:

"Your fighting style is very dangerous."

Philip, who was holding "Creeping Hunger" and observing it carefully, heard this and thought of his own self-destruction. He rubbed his hair with his hand in embarrassment and said, "This is the most useful method I can think of."

".indeed."

Philip ignored the fact that his white shirt was already scrapped according to common sense. After confirming that "Silver White" had no damage, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

I really made a lot of money this time.

I'll go back and see how powerful this glove is. Even in the battle just now, Qi Lingos relied on this glove to use the extraordinary abilities of three other paths in addition to his own "Sailor" path.

This extraordinary item can make up for all the gains he has obtained during this period of time, even if it is piled up in the ground, it cannot be extracted even if you dig it out.

While sighing, Philip saw Sharon gently beckoning and picking up a blue and white feather that had appeared on Qilingos' body at some point. He suddenly asked thoughtfully:
"Do you have any way to sell this 'Wind-Blessed One's' trait? I once met a 'Navigator' who mastered the art of role-playing. If you're not in urgent need of the money, I can help you sell it."

"Oh, and there's also the recipe for 'Wind-loving One'."

Sharon's pale face remained indifferent. She put away the feather in her hand, which seemed to be carried by the breeze, and then said in a vague and ethereal voice, "No problem, but the minimum price I can accept is 6500 pounds."

If there is any extra, that's my money. Philip was suddenly glad that Mr. "The Hanged Man" was experienced and mature, which meant that the other party might really be able to pay a few thousand pounds if he gritted his teeth.

He walked forward, opened Qilingos's mouth, closed the bottle of biotoxin again, wiped the saliva with his shirt, and then stuffed it back into his trouser pocket without any disgust.

Sharon was also busy, using her psychic skills to obtain the potion formula for "Wind Blessed". Just as she was about to finish, Philip suddenly said:
"Um, if possible, could you divine Qilingos's motive for assassinating Duke Negan? I have information indicating that he accepted a commission, and the reward appears to be enough to allow the other party to reach a High Sequence level."

After a moment of silence, Sharon spoke briefly and indifferently, "There are risks. Just like members of the Psychic Indulgence faction, as long as they divine the potion formula for the 'Prisoner' path, they will be affected by the 'Mother Tree of Desire'."

That's it
Philip's heart sank. When he joined the action against Steve, he was worried about accidents, so he did not ask for psychic communication for his own selfish desires. He did not expect that there would be such a trap.

But in this case, there would be no formula for entering Sequence 4, which is a high-sequence. Philip thought with a headache, but he no longer had the mind to ask. He began to clean up the scene to prevent the official Beyonder from locking onto him.

Under the moonlight, the two, fearing further mishaps, stopped talking. One of them decapitated Qilingos and destroyed the body, preparing to return to the Brave Bar to collect the numerous bounties. Philip, on the other hand, simply refused the other miscellaneous items, taking only the over 500 pounds in change he had on him. Then, donning "Creeping Hunger," feeling the light, cool, creeping touch, he returned to Braun Street, exhausted yet excited.

The "werewolf" had a limited speed, not to mention that he had not eaten to replenish his energy due to excessive bleeding. So when he carefully returned to No. 17 Brown Street, the long and silent night was almost over, and a hazy pale white was lingering in the Cherwood area, which was free of fog due to the cleaner air.

After three or four hours of travel, Philip returned to his bedroom, locked the door, took off his white shirt, and burned it completely with red flames until it turned into a pool of ashes and fell to the floor.

"Ah~"

Due to the dirtiness of his body, he lay on the floor with his upper body naked, feeling comfortable and at ease, without any psychological burden. Feeling the coolness on his back, Philip suddenly felt that his life was on the right track.

Although this is an illusion.

Even with the "Creeping Hunger", Philip is still essentially just a Sequence Seven. If he wants to understand the Shadow World and the truth about where he came from, Sequence Four is the minimum, not to mention the covetousness of the "Mother Tree of Desire" and the "Bound God".

Philip rested for two minutes, then sat up and used divination to confirm the current situation of "Creeping Hunger" and confirmed that the souls of five extraordinary people were grazing inside.

The "nightmare" who pulls people into dreams, the "psychologist" who uses intimidation, psychological suggestion and frenzy, the "interrogator" who concentrates the mind and pierces the target's spirit, and the "faceless man" who changes his appearance and figure.

and finally the "Priest of Light".

After learning about the other party's terrifying abilities, Philip still felt a little uneasy when recalling the situation at that time. If the other party's situation was not special and he did not want to attract official extraordinary people or other forces, and if he boldly used the ability of "Priest of Light", he would not even be able to leave his body in the world.

But all this is in the past.

Focusing on this, I should be happy about the amazing strength of the "creeping hunger" supermodel, but I must also avoid the covetousness of those who have ulterior motives. Philip gently stroked the black glove, thinking of the other party's side effects, and couldn't help feeling helpless.

He feeds on the flesh and souls of the living every day, but his moral bottom line absolutely does not allow him to kill innocent homeless people like Qilingos did, and specifically seek out those who are notorious and deserve death.
People like that tend to live well.

At least it won't be like the homeless people. The forces behind them, such as gangs and small groups, will soon attract the attention of certain guys. The frequency of one person per day can be directly associated with "creeping hunger."

He still had to hurry up and upgrade to a "zombie", and then change the soul of the extraordinary person shepherded in the gloves. As long as the optimization was completed, even if Qi Lingos from last night appeared in front of him again, Philip would be able to beat him and make him call him daddy!

I'll take a nap this morning. In the afternoon, I have to find a way to find two reliable people and get detailed information about some evil gang members from them. Well, safety is the most important thing, so try to find some unimportant information.
