Mercenary Wars

Chapter 6: Mind Shock
After rummaging through boxes and drawers, Pastor Green returned to the table with a bottle of mead and two cups, and poured the wine himself: "Try this."

"Thank you, sir." Raymond thanked while wolfing down the food. He took the cup and drank half of the mead, then continued to eat the meat.

Pastor Green also poured a glass for Gao Jianuo and said with a smile: "Gao Jianuo, you try it too."

Gao Jianuo glanced at the mead in the cup and did not drink it immediately. Instead, he suddenly asked, "By the way, sir, what was the spell you used to kill the fire wolf?"

"Mind Shock," Pastor Green said, his eyes wandering. "This spell is very useful against beasts."

"Why?" Gao Jianuo asked again.

Pastor Green turned and pointed at the fire wolf's corpse, speaking eloquently, "Beasts without intelligence usually don't have strong souls, and it's difficult for them to withstand the power of a mind shock. And if it's a human, even an ordinary person, it's almost impossible to be killed by a single mind shock..."

Taking advantage of the moment when Pastor Green turned his head, Gao Jianuo calmly touched the mead in the glass with his fingers.

[Item: Honey Wine]

[Item: Poison Lamp Pollen]

Amaranth pollen? !

Gao Jianuo was startled and looked at Pastor Green who was talking. The other party's expression was obviously getting more nervous, and he was trying to cover it up by talking frequently.

What is Pastor Green going to do?
Gao Jianuo's thoughts raced.

He couldn't guess Pastor Green's intentions, but he would never drink mead mixed with poisonous bee pollen.

At this time, Raymond drank the remaining half cup of mead.

Pastor Green's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He said with a stiff smile, "Gao Jianuo, you should also try this honey bar. It tastes very good."

Raymond responded: "Yeah, it tastes good!"

“…” Gao Jianuo was speechless and just looked at Raymond silently.

In a dozen seconds, the expressions of Gao Jianuo and Pastor Green became increasingly stiff, and finally turned cold.

Raymond was completely oblivious to this and continued to eat his grilled wolf steak until he suddenly yawned and said absentmindedly, "Hey, why aren't you guys eating anymore? If you're full, I can help..."

Before he could finish his words, he fell headfirst onto the table and lost consciousness.

The air fell into absolute silence.

It was not until two minutes later that Pastor Green's gloomy voice broke the silence. He looked directly at Gao Jianuo and asked, "How did you find out?"

Gao Jianuo calmed down and said, "It seems that you don't realize how strange you have been recently. Especially today, you smiled more than in the past three years."

There was another moment of silence.

Gao Jianuo asked: "Sir, can you tell me what your plan is? I don't think your purpose is to let Raymond have a good sleep, he doesn't need it."

Beneath his white robe sleeves, Pastor Green seemed to clench his fists, his face changing from gloomy to bright. After a while, he finally spoke, "I'm just a little lonely."

"?" Gao Jianuo was puzzled.

Pastor Green continued, "The church forbids intimacy between men, so I had to use something like poison lamp, which can make people completely unconscious."

Does this mean... male ketone?
Gao Jianuo felt like a thousand horses were running through his heart.

But he quickly reacted and realized that what Pastor Green said might not be true.

If it wasn't true, Pastor Green might have a more sinister intention. Even if it was true, it was still a terrifying thing.

After all, male ketone is a serious crime in Mosasculis. Even if it fails, the church will definitely impose severe punishment. He has caught such a big handle on Green, and Green cannot do nothing.

After thinking it over for a while, Gao Jianuo suddenly made up his mind, poured the mead on Green's face, and then ran out.

Run! He didn't think he could defeat Pastor Green, but since it was night, maybe he could run away.

However, as soon as Gao Jianuo ran out of the door and looked up, his heart sank - tonight is a full moon night!

The moon in the sky was big and round, illuminating the view very clearly. There was no possibility of it hiding in the night.

But he had no choice but to escape.

At the same time, Pastor Green also came out of the room.

He did not choose to chase Gao Ganuo, but instead made a triangle gesture with his hands, and the golden light quickly accumulated to form a mysterious rune.

The mysterious rune formed and then disappeared in a flash.

Gao Jianuo, who was running wildly, suddenly felt a buzzing sound in his head, and instantly became dizzy and fell to the ground.

He wanted to get up, but the feeling of dizziness was so lingering that he couldn't even tell the direction, let alone stand up.

Mind shock!

Gao Jianuo realized that Pastor Green used a mind shock on him.

Just like Pastor Green said, it is difficult for a mental shock to be fatal to a human being. Gao Jianuo has a strong spirit and is unlikely to be seriously affected. He may recover after a while.

But he doesn't have "a while" to do that right now.

How to do?
Oh, right, fake death!
Gao Jianuo had no choice. His body was unable to move now, and the only thing he could do was to use the technique of feigning death.

With luck, this might provide him with an unexpected opportunity to turn the situation around.

Thinking of this, he immediately pretended to be dead, his heartbeat and breathing stopped, and he lay on the ground motionless.

Pastor Green walked over, looked at Gao Jianuo on the ground, and sneered: "Do you think you can run away?"

Gao Jianuo did not respond.

Pastor Green continued, "Don't worry, you will eventually become a respected devotee in a fictitious story, and I will give your family some money. After all, I am..."

As he was speaking, he suddenly realized something and quickly leaned over to check Gao Jianuo's breathing. Then he widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "Dead?!"

"This kid doesn't look like a weak soul, how could this happen..." He frowned and muttered to himself.

He touched Gao Jianuo's chest again.

After confirming that there was no heartbeat, Pastor Green's face became extremely gloomy and he fell silent for a while.

"Alas!" Finally he sighed heavily and dragged Gao Jianuo back to the cabin.

After returning to the cabin, he still did not give up and checked Gao Jianuo's breathing and heartbeat again. He found that Gao Jianuo not only had no breathing and heartbeat, but even his skin had become colder.

Now, Pastor Green had to accept the fact that "Gao Jianuo is dead."

He threw the "dead" Gao Jianuo into the corner of the room, sat down on the chair, lowered his head, obviously in a heavy mood, and no one knew what he was thinking.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, Gao Jianuo was trembling and breathing weakly.

Damn, I almost suffocated to death!
"Six minutes is a bit short..." Gao Jianuo thought to himself after he ended his fake death, while carefully concealing his breathing so as not to be discovered by Pastor Green.

Fortunately, Pastor Green was immersed in negative emotions and did not notice this.

After a long while, Pastor Green raised his head and looked at the unconscious Raymond: "In that case, let's sacrifice one..."
