A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 10 Parasite
At a roadside inn, Huang Tiekou watched Xu Lie concoct a potion with anticipation.

During this period, Huang Tiekou has been diligently following Xu Lie's instructions, providing fortune telling and divination for the general public without charging fees, offering only advice, and not participating in any unauthorized activities.

Therefore, the Sequence 9 fortune teller digested the potion very quickly, and by today he had completely digested it. After receiving Xu Lie's invitation, he rushed to the inn.

He only begged the gods to help him go further.

He no longer wanted to go back to the past and continue living an ordinary life. After experiencing extraordinary power, Huang Tiekou became deeply addicted to it and could not extricate himself.

Xu Lie understood this mentality very well, so he prepared the potion in front of the other party in a dignified manner, using a goat crystal stained with dragon blood and a dragon blood rose.

These dragon blood materials were all stolen by the preparatory class clone. If it weren't for this clone providing the materials, Xu Lie wouldn't have anything to concoct potions right now.

Following the order, I threw the ingredients into the pot and soon got a bottle of three-colored potion: "Okay, drink it."

"After drinking it, you will obtain the secret to becoming an immortal."

Huang Tiekou's face twitched with excitement, so much so that he could hardly contain himself and his words stammered, "Thank you, thank you, God! Thank you so much!"

"I will succeed! Once I succeed, I will worship the gods day and night!"

There is no doubt why the immortals of the East don't refine elixirs, but instead make medicinal potions.

Without any hesitation, Huang Tiekou took the clown potion and gulped it down in one go. The potion was bitter and pungent, like eating hundreds of bitter melons raw!

The bitterness turned Huang Tiekou's face green and blue. After drinking the potion, a violent and bloodthirsty emotion arose from his heart.

It was as if some ancient being was tempting Huang Tiekou to kill Xu Lie! To kill this god before him!
He can get more and acquire more!
Xu Lie remained calm: "Calm your mind. On the path of cultivation, one may occasionally encounter inner demons. If one falls into their trap, one will fall into a lower level."

Yes, yes! Inner demons! We mustn't be fooled by them!

Huang Tiekou, who did not want to be deceived, was completely unaware of where his absurd trust in Xu Lie came from.

Just hearing Xu Lie's words made him believe wholeheartedly without a trace of doubt, and he tried his best to calm his heart and suppress that violent emotion.

After a short while, the violent emotions completely subsided, and an indescribable sense of relief welled up in my heart.

Before Huang Tiekou could even breathe a sigh of relief, a sharp pain shot through his brow.

In the darkness, an image formed in his mind, in which a transparent twelve-ringed worm burrowed into his brain!
At the same time, the abilities provided by the Sequence 8 Joker Potion also came to mind: enhanced body coordination and balance, increased agility, and the ability to precisely control facial expressions and body language.

It also possesses a magic-like ability to turn paper into knives, and most importantly, its divination is enhanced, allowing it to intuitively sense danger.

Huang Tiekou shuddered at the sight, meaning that his intuition told him that a transparent worm from who-knows-where was going to crawl into his brain.
"parasitic."

Before Huang Tiekou could react, the hotel room door was pulled open from the outside, and a talisman was thrown in.

A chaotic array of colors, like those of a starry sky, shimmered, and transparent worms emerged from the talisman.

Like the clone, it belongs to the ability of the Thief pathway Sequence 4 Parasite, which can parasitize targets superficially or deeply and control others.

Huang Tiekou was terrified and tried to dodge by using his improved coordination and agility to perform a bridge move.

Unfortunately, the transparent worm, like a ghost, didn't need to crawl or wriggle at all. As soon as it appeared, it teleported into Huang Tiekou's body, completely ignoring spatial distance.

The difficult iron bridge move was ultimately in vain.

Huang Tiekou was extremely flustered because his current state was very strange.

It's as if the body and soul are completely separated; you can see and hear everything outside, but you can't control your body.

His thoughts were his own; everything else was irrelevant to him.

He wanted to take back his body, but he had no idea how, and could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded before his eyes.

In reality, 'Huang Tiekou' slowly straightened his body, his terrified expression turning into indifference: "Tsk tsk, the Joker's body coordination is really high, he can do any kind of movement."

Xu Lie, the real person outside the door, finally walked in: "Then how about you perform a handstand split and 720° spin in mid-air for us?"

Huang Tiekou's face twitched; thanks to the clown's ability, his cheeks were actually twitching and pulsating: "The real body is truly wicked." What, what is this?
Huang Tiekou's remaining thoughts were driving him crazy. Why would a deity enter from outside? Wasn't there already a deity in the room? Twins?

"Spinning in the air? Forget it. Don't I still need to hold a ceremony to obtain the Faceless Man's power talisman? Let's get this done quickly!"

"The preparatory class clones have all sent messages: the Kassel commissioner has arrived, hurry up."

Realizing he had spoken, his own voice, Huang Tiekou was on the verge of a breakdown: 'You fucking liar! Liar, liar!'

'Let me out! Give me back my body!'

'No, you can't lock me up like this! You fucking can't do this!'

In the real world, Huang Tiekou seemed to have heard nothing and urged his main body to mobilize the source fortress to carry out the ritual.

Faced with such an 'active' clone trying to solve his problems, Xu Lie's original body really couldn't refuse.

Soon, after a perfunctory ritual involving Six Gods Floral Water, Xu Lie received in advance the Faceless Man's face-changing ability talisman.

Compared to the original Faceless Man's ability to change his appearance at will, the talisman is more limited, as it can only be used once to transform into someone else's appearance, and cannot be changed back.

But for Xu Lie, enough is enough.

On a deeper level, unnoticed by anyone, Huang Tiekou had already fallen into despair.

……

For the preparatory class, student dormitories were arranged for the five specialists from the main campus; of course, they were male dormitories.

Chen Motong does not need accommodation, nor does she live at home.

She came to the preparatory class just to help out and earn extra credits.

The real mission of this trip is to assist Professor Guderian in recruiting new students, and I need to catch tonight's flight to the coastal city.

The group of five said goodbye downstairs in the dormitory building.

Although the surveillance footage Norma retrieved did not contain a single person who matched the profile Chen Motong had created.

However, the team leader was still very grateful to Chen Motong for the clues: "Thank you for making this trip. If we encounter any more difficulties in our subsequent investigation, we hope that you can provide assistance."

"I can ask the professor to give you more credits."

"Tsk." Chen Motong casually tossed her fiery long hair, the smooth strands slipping through her fingers: "Captain, if you can call me Nuonuo from now on, I wouldn't mind lending a hand."

"That's it, I still have to go to the airport, bye~".

Leaving behind a casual remark, the girl turned around decisively, her flowing long hair whipping in the air in a half-circle, attracting the attention of passing preparatory students.

This naturally included Xu Lie, who was deliberately keeping an eye on the group. Fortunately, the head of the department attracted many students, so he blended in without being suspected.

Chen Motong is going to the airport? Has she separated from the agents? Is she on another mission?

It seems the main body's plans need to be adjusted temporarily. I wonder if there are any clones that are relatively close to the airport.

While they were thinking, the comrade also left the dormitory building: "Let's go try the cafeteria for the preparatory class and see if there's any difference between it and the main campus cafeteria."

"Chu Zihang, you should cherish the time when you can eat properly. Unlike us, after joining the Execution Department, we often can't even get a hot meal."

"I've got it, senior."

Xu Lie, who was about to report to his main body, froze. Chu Zihang?
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected bonus.

Kassel is truly a place where talented people emerge.
