Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 77 [77] Good Experimental Subject, Good Stuff

The cause of this mortal's death was not merely the superficial injuries and the fact that his internal organs had been completely devoured; these were secondary. More importantly, the biological energy within his body, along with his vitality, had vanished.

It was as if it had been devoured by that unknown creature that was gnawing at it.

Several spells flashed through Wang Ya's mind that could also cause such damage, but they would all have signs, such as fluctuations in particle energy.

If that's the case, a first-level wizard apprentice's mental perception should be able to cover the entire convoy, so they wouldn't be unable to detect it.

Harak's perception is different from his. After the birth of his bloodline power, he can see and perceive from a different perspective through the shadows.

To be precise, it is a beast in a twisted and irregular state, or like a canine species. After sharing the shadow perspective with Harak, it is very abstract, like graffiti on a painting.

His gaze swept over the gaunt man, observing his tension, suppressed excitement, and the greedy desire in his eyes—a voracious appetite.

The twisted, irregular beast-like entity emerged from the gaunt man's body and then disappeared back inside.

[Analysis successful. The mortal died by unknown means. The target has been identified as the thin man. Confirmation rate: 92%.]

[As the mortal's flesh and internal organs are devoured, their life force and soul are completely extinguished. Within an hour, the corpse will decompose into blackened, putrid bones.]

[The unknown creature can switch between illusion and reality, residing within the emaciated man's body. A symbiotic relationship is highly likely, with the creature instinctively absorbing the host's life force and bio-energy, driven by insatiable greed.]

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Ya's eyes, and the word "vengeful spirit" came to mind!

If someone dies with extremely negative emotions and high mental strength, and their death meets the conditions for the existence of natural particle energy, they can give birth to a vengeful spirit.

However, this situation is still very rare, and the initial vengeful spirit is in a state of confusion and bewilderment. After sensing the aura of a living person, it instinctively attacks the living person and devours their soul and flesh.

The vengeful spirits hate all living beings, yet at the same time crave these things they do not possess.

The more people you kill and eat, the stronger you become!

At the same time, the more nightmare powder is produced, the more extraordinary powder is produced. No, different kinds of vengeful spirits produce different kinds of extraordinary powder.

This unknown creature truly fits all the descriptions of a vengeful spirit.

Normally, vengeful spirits in the first stage are in an illusory state and have little influence on reality. They can only intervene through frightening the mind and through dreams.

The second stage involves influencing reality, but the interference cannot be excessive; it can cause hallucinations in mortals, leading to things like death.

In the third stage, it intervenes in reality, transforming into a physical entity capable of physically killing mortals, making it comparable to a supernatural being.

The fourth stage is the most troublesome, as the vengeful spirits possess unique spiritual power that makes them very difficult to kill completely.

However, a wizard's extraordinary mental power can suppress these strange souls, and the magic formed by particle energy can also harm vengeful spirits in an illusory state.

What Wang Ya hesitated about was that, in theory, vengeful spirits should not have the ability to block the perception of spiritual power. Could it be that there is a difference between animal vengeful spirits?

He couldn't possibly have studied this extraordinary information in detail; at most, he had consulted some materials.

The caravan traveled between the two countries, passing through the territories of various nobles. How could this gaunt man be possessed by a vengeful spirit, or rather, how could he be using a vengeful spirit to kill?

Wang Ya observed the smugness and hatred in his eyes.

He didn't care about the loves and hates of mortals, but he was very interested in things related to the extraordinary.

Nicotine negotiated with the caravan members, and under Hans's encouragement, they suppressed their fear and several knights used their cross-shaped swords to move the corpse away.

After such a strange event, no one dared to linger any longer and drove their carriages away from the place.

Some of the more experienced elderly people clearly understood something, but dared not say anything, and walked on in silence with their heads down.

Las was forcibly dragged by Nicotine and put into a carriage, with several knights arranged to walk around it.

Wang Ya returned to the back of the carriage, riding a black horse and slowly making his way along the mountain path.

A faint black shadow hovered in the sky.

Revenge has been achieved!

He finally killed that damned guy, and actually drank his blood and ate his flesh.

Jones leaned against the side of the carriage, walking with his head down, his eyes filled with exhilaration and madness.

The god of Gendass was indeed real, granting him immense power.

He could sense the presence of a deity within him, and as long as he wholeheartedly worshipped Him, whether in body, soul, or consciousness, he could become an immortal god.

His evil thoughts churned endlessly, and he looked at the carriage beside him. What right did that fat pig have to have this caravan? It should all belong to him.

That little bitch Lass should be his too. She actually couldn't resist a pretty boy.

That bastard Hans dares to look down on him, never even giving him a straight face, he deserves to die.

His pupils were bloodshot, with thin black lines flowing through his veins. Jones's teeth were also gradually elongating, making him look like a beast. As the blood flowed through his body, there seemed to be a low, animalistic roar.

The convoy emerged from the forest and mountains onto the main road, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They were now within the territory of the Mayan Kingdom, which was much safer.

The pressure caused by the mysterious deaths was somewhat relieved.

As night fell, the stars twinkled, and the moonlight shone down. In the campsite, torches dispelled the surrounding darkness, and everyone began to cook.

After a meal, those who remained on night watch went to sleep.

Lacey lay in bed, unaffected by the dead man, and Mr. Arthur's face involuntarily appeared in her mind.

Roar!

A deep roar echoed in the single tent, filling her with inexplicable fear. She instinctively sat up in bed, her pupils immediately reflecting a terrifying beast-like creature lunging at her.

Jones stuck out his tongue and licked his teeth, producing saliva. He stood in the dense forest, looking down at the firelight of the camp on the main road.

His lower body even became aroused, and he repeated in a morbid voice, "Come on, come on, my little Ras, Uncle will take good care of you."

But he didn't notice that in the shadows behind him, there was another figure looking at him with the same eyes one would give a rare experimental subject.

Wang Ya was truly aroused in his thirst for knowledge. Human vengeful spirits were already extremely rare, but this was even rarer—a beastly vengeful spirit that he had almost never heard of.

Transforming from an illusory state into reality, it is truly flesh and blood, and even possesses the characteristic of granulation regeneration, making it seem like an extraordinary creature.

What are the underlying principles? How does the transformation between virtual and reality work? Is it of any reference value?

Or, after the autopsy, could we find something useful that could be applied to Harak, or to ourselves, or even bring us benefits?

Wang Ya's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and out of excitement, he even subconsciously licked his lips, revealing his neat and sharp teeth.

A rare and valuable experimental subject.

Through the accumulation of daily life as a wizard, Wang Ya gradually developed into a qualified wizard.

The desire for knowledge, the study of human nature!

This is so tragic! Please give me some votes! Muzan!
