Weird Survival: I can devour thousands of talents

Chapter 167: 166: Spiritual Contract to Tame Beasts! Alchemy Matrix!

"Can I take his arm guards with me?"

"Um……"

The Duchess whispered, "That lady's power is amazing... I don't know how she did it, but..."

"You have more freedom in my dreams, which is always a good thing..."

hope...

Ling Xiao didn't say it out loud.

Judging from the experiences after entering the dream twice, these monsters that should have been dead seemed to be real.

After being defeated or killed, they will completely disappear, and their strength will not increase as they become stronger.

If I keep upgrading in the real world and enter dreams more often with increasingly stronger strength, I will be able to break through this "copy" sooner or later.

Walking on the path leading to the castle, the earth-shaking shouts and cries of killing in the distance were reduced to extremely faint sounds here.

Ling Xiao was only able to vaguely sense it after his attributes skyrocketed.

Howling!
He stopped and his eyes fixed.

Not far away, three knights pulled the reins and sat upright in the saddles, with scarlet spots of light under their masks looking towards him.

They held incredibly long lances in their hands and had a ridged shield hanging at their sides, which, combined with the neatly armed war horses under their crotch, put Ling Xiao under tremendous pressure.

This is the instinctive fear of infantry when facing armored cavalry.

But Ling Xiao just took a deep breath and took the initiative to charge!

The three knights didn't waste any words, and their eyes were shining red.

Then they spurred their horses to speed up, blocked the road surface, and the three riders rushed towards Ling Xiao with overwhelming momentum!

The "wall" composed of only three lances actually brought about a surge of magical power on the iron wall!
Convergence and cohesion!

The three riders formed a sharp arrow formation, and the sharp magic light that gradually took shape at the tip pierced Ling Xiao's eyebrows so hard that it hurt!

hide?
There is nowhere to hide!

Many people think that infantry fighting cavalry is not easy but it is not that difficult. You just need to avoid the enemy's sharp edge and then attack from the side.

Chunchun has high expectations but poor skills!
Absolutely empty talk!
Only when you truly face this kind of weapon of war in the cold weapon era, will you understand what it means to "dominate the world"! ?

Amid the tremors of the earth, operations like "sliding" became a laughing stock.

Than speed?

That's something wrong with your brain.

Whether bypassing the front or retreating first, it will undoubtedly put your back under the cavalry's hooves!
Throughout history, there has been only one way to defeat cavalry on foot.

That is to slow down the cavalry!
Shooting with bows and crossbows; tripping horses in pits; withstanding with heavy armor...

All of them are for the purpose of achieving this goal.

Ling Xiao’s choice is also very simple, that is to combine the three into one!

The speed difference between the two parties rushing towards each other will reach a terrifying number when added together!
This is Ling Xiao’s chance to transform himself into an “arrow man”!

He was already very fast, and if he wanted to avoid being fired upon by the three cavalrymen or being crushed one after another, he could only attack as quickly as possible and deal with only one or two cavalrymen in the shortest possible time.

The sound of horse hooves trampling the ground struck Ling Xiao's heart with oppression.

As the distance was rapidly shortened, the time came for Ling Xiao to launch the [Earthquake] that he had secretly prepared!

He couldn't dig a pit in front of three knights, but simplifying it and making the horses' hooves less steady was more than enough!
While running at high speed, Ling Xiao took a special step.

The ground, which was already trembling under the horse's hooves, suddenly shook!

The intensity is comparable to an earthquake!

It comes quickly and goes quickly, lasting barely a second.

Ling Xiao found that the land here seemed very strange, but he was so surprised that he didn't have time to think too much.

In short, my talent can still take effect, that's enough!
The three knights were powerful and well-trained, and the horses under their crotches were no ordinary creatures either.

But as long as these war horses do not come out of nowhere, they must abide by the most basic laws.

When the feedback from the horse's hooves is insufficient or inconsistent with the horse's expected state, even the strongest mount will make mistakes!

The three-horse formation that was "shooting" in the shape of an arrow became disorganized for a moment!
The warhorse on the far right was in the worst condition. Its front hooves, which were supposed to exert force, stepped on empty air, and it almost tripped over its hind legs and fell.

The other two were just lucky, but the movements of the knights in the saddles were more or less distorted.

The opportunity has come, this moment is it!
There was only a short distance left, but Ling Xiao directly activated [Sky-Splitting Flash]!
Under his careful calculation.

The moment he jumped out of the space, Ling Xiao just "missed" the iron wall formed by the lances and appeared in the gap where the horses were about to pass by!

The two knights who "sandwiched" him in the middle also immediately noticed this sudden change, but the brain's consciousness does not represent the body's reaction!
Ling Xiao could have gone a little further and flashed completely behind the knight, but that wouldn't have changed the battle situation much.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity to change the situation!
At this moment, the sharp magic power swept past, and the internal energy gathered on the surface of the body rubbed against it violently!
The recast Iron Heart Knife was added with additional precious mineral materials by Sister Hammer, and after being nurtured by Ling Xiao's spiritual essence, it is even stronger than before!

A cluster of black "flames" flashing like flames lingered around the long sword, and as Ling Xiao swung it with great force, it slashed towards the neck of the warhorse!
Peng——

Blood exploded!

The warhorse, charging at high speed, didn't even have time to let out a whine before its neck was chopped off by the knife!

The armor leaves do not provide any defensive function.

Under Ling Xiao's powerful blow that was integrated with the [Ba Dao], even a well-equipped knight was almost cut in half!

The long sword swung upward with great force and landed heavily on the knight's armor on his abdomen!
A miniature magical storm exploded, like a tank's reactive armor bursting outward to block the incoming attack!

"Kuah! Hoo..."

The knight flew backwards and cried out in pain, and black and red blood splattered out from under his mask while he was still in the air!

Without waiting for it to land, Ling Xiao flashed and drew his knife, catching up with his prey in just one step.

Under the exploding armor fragments, the enemy's weakness was finally artificially created by others.

Ba Dao - long drive!

The long sword, carrying a circle of fine wind blades, pierced straight through the abdomen of the fallen knight!

Ling Xiao exerted force and continued to attack, preventing the opponent from falling to the ground!
The sword light blooms!
Countless wind marks slashed at the unprotected parts of the knight, and the flesh and blood that had been corroded by the demon exploded almost instantly!

The head that was falling down was suddenly grabbed. To be on the safe side, Ling Xiao spewed flames from his hands to burn it completely!
A series of blows came smoothly, until the broken and smoking helmet fell to the ground with a bang, and the remaining two knights hurriedly turned their horses around.

Ling Xiao dispersed the remaining flame in his palm, looked at the charge which was obviously less powerful than before, and went forward again!

Even he didn't want to confront the cavalry head-on.

Maybe, but not necessary.

Ling Xiao is not a fool. Why would he foolishly fight head-on when the way forward is unclear?
Since the knights' biggest threat is charging, wouldn't it be better to prevent them from charging?
Especially when the enemy has been reduced in number, the density of the cavalry formation formed by the two knights is much less threatening than before.

Although the enemy had learned from experience and was on guard, Ling Xiao's flash was a magical skill that could transcend space, and their emergency response measures were completely unable to stop such pervasive infiltration!
Not long after, the last warhorse with a broken front hoof also died with hatred after being chopped off by the Iron Heart Knife.

As for its owner...

There were two slowly extinguished helmets on the ground, and I didn't know which one was the one on its back...

But this time there was an unexpected surprise.

A speck of light flew up and sank into Ling Xiao's forehead.

[Spiritual Contract Beast Taming Method] [Quality: Excellent]

[Conditions: Level 24 or higher; Strength and Agility 25 or higher, all other attributes 20 or higher, or Spirit 40 or higher; Possess the talent or ability to subdue lower-level life forms]

[Special Effects: 1. Soul Contract (After subduing the monster, implant a soul contract into it, turning it into a spirit beast);

[Evaluation: Master the spirit contract and beast taming techniques, and they will become your strongest supporters, fighting alongside you in all directions and against powerful enemies!]

Another outstanding skill!
While it's not an offensive skill that directly increases combat power, it's a very useful beast taming skill!
And judging from the description, this [Spiritual Contract Beast Taming Method] is quite domineering!

For a contracted spirit beast, having its actions, life and death controlled by others is naturally an extremely tragic outcome.

But Ling Xiao was not an animal rights activist whose kindness spread everywhere, not to mention that he has now experienced the exploration and survival.

This thing is so useful to him!
Especially the icefield snow cattle that they brought back on a whim, which helped them tremendously in their migration to the south!
Ling Xiao had no psychological burden in his heart about taming monsters and using them.

The tall warhorse quickly decayed, and the armor covering it seemed to have returned to the bygone era.

By the time Ling Xiao had digested his new skills, there was nothing left on the ground, as if the three high-spirited knights had never appeared.

There were only three broken helmets, which Ling Xiao wiped briefly and placed on the roadside.

Arranged neatly and following closely, just like the three of them were when they were alive.

……

……

The longer Ling Xiao experienced the dream again, the more he realized that the proprietress was not simple.

Originally, his physical and spiritual strength were very limited, but now they recovered as quickly as drinking water.

After staying for a while to recover his health, he continued on his way and encountered two teams of "guards" in succession.

The result is self-evident, they were all mercilessly sent to the afterlife by Ling Xiao.

These common soldiers didn't drop any rewards, but combat experience was still gained.

After walking a few dozen steps, the road ahead suddenly became clear.

Ling Xiao was surprised to find himself at a "fork in the road" with a fountain.

The fountain in the center is exquisitely shaped, with incomprehensible reliefs all over it, highlighting its high-end and classy atmosphere. The faint magical fluctuations it exudes are undoubtedly a testament to the owner's wealth and financial status.

This place is about a hundred meters in radius. In addition to the road I came from, there is a small road on each side.

As for the direction, it happened to be the road facing him.

However, through the water column of the fountain, Ling Xiao discovered two difficult "obstacles".

He walked around and came in front of the two old men.

If we say that the powerful enemies encountered before were as wild and imposing as an erupting volcano.

Now, the two old men who were blocking the way ahead did not release any aura, but they seemed as deep and unfathomable as the abyss of the sea to Ling Xiao.

It depends...

These two should be the bosses guarding this section of the road. I may have to break through LV30 to defeat them.

But now that he’s here, how could Ling Xiao just sit there and wait to die?

Anyway, the existence in the dream will not become stronger, so I should take this opportunity to do my best to reveal the opponent's trump card, so as to obtain more information for the next time I enter the dream!
The two old men were dressed very differently.

The old man on the left had emerald green eyes. If it weren't for the dark red devilish light that flashed from time to time, Ling Xiao would have thought that the other party had not been alienated or corrupted.

His deep eye sockets were covered with thick and neat eyebrows, and his wide dark brown robe had no extra decorations, but the old man had a dark golden belt tied around his waist, with bottles, jars and a few small bags hanging on it.

The old woman on the right had azure eyes with a concentrated scarlet devilish light in the center.

It can be seen that she was very beautiful when she was young, and she still has a charming temperament even when she is old.

Her clothes were much more gorgeous.

The black dress is embroidered with floral patterns and has silver thread embellishments on the edges.

In his hand he held a small staff, and around his neck he wore a necklace made of gemstones of various colors.

Strong magical fluctuations are emanating from it.

"Huh? Why...do you have the aura of the God of Light?"

The old woman looked at Ling Xiao with considerable curiosity, and her voice was clear and pleasant, as cheerful as a young girl's.

"Is this what senior is talking about?"

Ling Xiao spread out his palms politely, and the bright flames filled up into a ball of light.

After receiving benefits one after another in his dreams, Ling Xiao no longer rejects everything here.

And because of the Duchess's influence, he felt that these beings were more pitiful than hateful.

After all, we are not in life-and-death hostility with them.

Haven’t you seen that the elderly Zhao Yun was so angry that he exterminated the Han family, but he was fond of Tianshui Qilin, who always called him "old general"?
You can beat me, but there’s no harm in being polite with your words!
Perhaps because Ling Xiao was so well-educated, the simply dressed old man smiled and said, "That's the taste!"

He took a deep breath, his face showing a mixture of nostalgia and disgust.

"The Goddess of Light died a long time ago... I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck that you got a ray of her ashes..."

"young people……"

The old man seemed to be stimulated by something, and the scarlet devil light in his eyes began to tremble, gradually fading and infecting the original spirit.

"You shouldn't be in front of us..."

His originally peaceful expression gradually distorted and finally turned into a hideous smile.

"The light is dead! As long as you live in this world, all that awaits you is ever-deepening despair and pain!"

"Let me...let me take you to accompany her!!"

Before he finished speaking, a bright light appeared under the old man's feet!
Ling Xiao was shocked and retreated violently. It turned out that the seemingly kind old woman next to him was unsportsmanlike and used a shady trick!
He was rarely distracted during a fight.

But he seemed to have seen the "magic circle" summoned by the old man somewhere before?
But I'm not a wizard, so I've never played these games before?
Fortunately, Ling Xiao found the clue soon.

That was when he tried to activate the alchemical matrix contained in the Morning Dew while inspecting the spoils after completing the Homecoming.

The result is failure in capital letters.

This thing is of high quality and powerful, but Ling Xiao, who doesn't know alchemy, can't use it at all!

at the moment.

Although the magic circle summoned by the old man is dense and complicated, similar patterns and roots can be vaguely seen.

"This is... an alchemical matrix!?"

"Haha! Good eyesight! Let's try the effect again!"

The world before my eyes began to roll, and the ground was surging like waves.

Ling Xiao was stunned at first, then he smiled happily.

"Come!"
