Legendary Son-in-Law: The Man with Poison Talismans

He swallowed hard, reached out and touched the bone armor; it was intact.

Thankfully, the little guy is still alive.

Lin Mu felt a little better after finishing the healing medicine in his mouth, and then cursed.

"Fuck you..."

Gritting his teeth, he ran forward with his legs together and a swaying gait.

I had only run a few steps when I felt another tremor under my feet.

Before Lin Mu could react, the spikes had already shot out from under his feet, heading straight for his groin.

Just as the gray-white spike was about to hit him, the 5-second cooldown of Flash finally came.

Lin Mu's thoughts flashed.

With a flash of white light, he disappeared from his spot and reappeared 100 meters away, now 260 meters from the tree demon.

He glanced back and saw the spike protruding from where he had just been standing, missing its target, and then retracting.

Lin Mu was panting heavily when he spotted the orange torch stuck outside the tree demon's attack range in the distance. He was only 40 meters away. Just a little more patience and he would be there soon.

He gritted his teeth and kept running.

He hadn't run two steps when he felt another tremor under his feet. But his Flash ability was still on cooldown, and he didn't have time to use it. He didn't dare to jump up either, because if he did, the ground spikes would travel a longer distance and strike even harder. He could only take the hits head-on.

Chapter 197 Painful Testicles

Suddenly, the spikes shot out from the ground, fast and fierce, heading straight for his groin.

"clang……"

Another crisp sound.

Lin Mu's mouth opened into an "O" shape again, his eyes widened, his legs went weak, and his whole body arched up like a boiled shrimp.

This time, he couldn't even utter a curse; he could only manage a muffled groan from his throat.

That uncomfortable, swollen, and sore feeling shot straight from my groin to the top of my head.

He was straddling his legs, unable to run any further. Before he could even close his mouth in an "O" shape, another tremor shook the ground beneath his feet. This tree demon was truly not giving him a chance to catch his breath.

However, less than 5 seconds have passed since the last flash, and the old tree spirit's attack frequency has increased.

Lin Mu didn't have time to think, so he raised his hand and used an invisibility spell on himself.

The tree spirit temporarily lost its presence, and the tremors beneath its feet vanished instantly, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

He stood there with his legs clamped together, barely daring to breathe, his eyes fixed on the calm ground beneath his feet.

Less than two seconds had passed since he went invisible, and the tree spirit hadn't yet re-locked onto Lin Mu's aura, but the five-second cooldown for Flash had finally passed.

He looked at the torch 305 meters away, and with a thought, he appeared.

A flash of white light appeared, and he was standing next to a torch 305 meters away from the tree demon.

He looked back and saw that the spikes behind him had emerged from the ground again, piercing the spot where he had just stood, before retracting back into place.

Lin Mu stood there, hands on his knees, panting heavily.

After catching his breath for a while, he straightened up, took out a bottle of healing medicine and drank it down. The red liquid slid down his throat into his stomach, and a warm force spread from his abdomen to his limbs. The swollen and sore pain in his groin finally subsided.

He let out a long breath, straightened up, and felt as if he had finally come back to life.

Lin Mu took off the white tiger tooth necklace from his neck and examined it from all angles. [Magic Dodge 70%], that's right, it was the one he was wearing.

With an additional 10% magic evasion, the magic evasion stat on the character panel reaches a staggering 80%.

How did I get pricked twice? That shouldn't be happening.

Could it be that the tree spirit's spikes can ignore magic and dodge?

That will be difficult to fight.

Lin Mu sighed, and with a thought, he dispelled the fusion.

The bone armor transformed into silvery-white specks and peeled off his body, and the skeleton stood beside him once more.

He leaned against the torch, reached into his crotch, rubbed it a couple of times, looking quite lewd, trying to relieve the lingering soreness.

My balls really hurt, I'm not just complaining, they really hurt.

He used to be afraid that the ground spikes would cause piercing damage, leaving a hole with each stab. Now it seems that with the protection of the bone armor and the dagger, the damage from the ground spikes has changed from piercing to blunt force. Don't be fooled by the hole on the dagger and the deep dent or white mark on the bone armor, which doesn't seem like any external injury. The damage still hits his testicles directly, as if it were being smashed through the bone armor.

As Lin Mu rubbed his hands, he suddenly thought of Jiang Yanzhou and those orc warriors.

In the Woma Forest, he slashed at their groins with his sword, hitting them accurately with every strike, making them howl in pain and collapse on the ground, unable to get up.

At that time, he just found it funny and thought that this weakness attack was really useful, as it could cripple a monster with just a few sword strikes.

Now that it's his turn, he knows what it feels like.

He lowered his head, looking at his still slightly trembling legs, and silently said in his heart, "Jiang Yanzhou, I'm so sorry. And to those orc warriors, I'm even more sorry."

He rubbed it for a while, and when he felt the soreness gradually subside, he pulled his hand out of his crotch, dusted it off, and let out a long breath.

The skeleton stood to the side, tilting its head to watch Lin Mu's movements, the flames in its two eye sockets flickering.

It hesitated for a moment, then, imitating Lin Mu, reached into its crotch. Unfortunately, it had no pants or genitals, and its skeletal hand reached in only to find nothing, its knuckles cracking twice. It didn't quite understand Lin Mu's intention.

Lin Mu glanced at it, patted its shoulder blade, and said irritably, "Alright, you don't have that thing, no need to rub it anymore."

Then he looked at the towering tree in the distance, which was faintly visible in the mist, and began to ponder.

This thing is hard to fight.

But I'm currently at Luck 9, and the poison damage is 55 points every two seconds. One poison lasts for 10 minutes, which is 16500 points of health. One hour is 99000 points of health, and 2,370,000 and 6000 points of health in 24 hours.

The Rainbow Demon Lord has less than 300 million HP. Even if the Tree Demon has a high HP, just by poisoning it for a few more days, it will eventually be poisoned to death.

He wondered how to deal with this lingering sadness. He looked down at his still slightly trembling legs, then at the towering tree in the distance, faintly visible in the mist. He was afraid that his little brother might not be able to hold on.

Lin Mu gritted his teeth and rummaged through his Qiankun bag to pull out several low-level weapons that had dropped while fighting monsters in the Demon Sealing Cave. Eight Desolations, Lingfeng, Zhanmadao... he had all sorts of weapons, all of which were junk that he usually tossed in a corner and was too lazy to deal with.

He gathered several piles of junk together, took out a few amulets, activated the Soul Fire Talisman, and let the orange-red flames lick the ironware, making it sizzle.

In no time, those low-level weapons were melted into a dozen or so thick iron blocks, each about the size of a palm, with unburnt charcoal black residue on the edges. He picked them up and tossed them in his hand; they were hard enough.

He then took out several thin ropes from his storage bag and tied the iron pieces one by one to the outside of the bone armor at his groin, stacking them in two layers, like fish scales covering the armor. When he tapped them, they made a clanging sound, much sturdier than the dagger from before.

It's not enough to just have hard parts; you also need soft parts.

He rummaged through his storage bag and pulled out a few more old clothes: light armor, cloth clothes... He had kept them all this time and they finally came in handy.

He crumpled up his old clothes into balls and stuffed them into his crotch, making his penis bulge out like a round ball, so that his legs couldn't close properly when he walked.

The hard armor blocked the frontal impact, and the soft lining cushioned the shock. He reached out and patted it; it felt solid and reassuring, but also felt absurd.

At this point, nine minutes had passed since the tree spirit was poisoned.

With a thought, Lin Mu merged with the body, and silvery-white light spots surged towards him, layer upon layer of bone armor enveloping his body.

He took a deep breath and tentatively took a step within 300 meters.

The ground was calm beneath my feet, without any vibrations or spikes.

Chapter 198 Skeleton Output

He took another step, but still nothing.

Lin Mu breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking inside.

His crotch was bulging, and he walked with his legs spread apart like a novice who had just finished riding a horse, but he didn't care about that anymore.

He teleported to a location 51 meters away from the tree spirit in no time, surrounded by dark red soil.

He raised his hand and cast an invisibility spell, his semi-transparent body brushing against the edge of the mist. With another flash, he landed more than 20 meters away from the tree demon.

Although it wasn't the first time he'd seen the tree spirit up close, he still felt a chill run down his spine every time he saw those twisted scars and those silent screaming faces.

Lin Mu changed into the Titan Ring, his Taoist magic returned to its maximum value, and then he closed his eyes. The light in his mind was flashing rhythmically, one second, two seconds, three seconds... He counted the time; it was almost ten minutes.

Three, two, one... The green light on the tree spirit faded, returning to its original grayish-white color.

Lin Mu opened his eyes, took out the medicinal powder, and instantly sprinkled two handfuls of powder. Gray and yellow powder mists drifted towards the tree trunk one after the other. The tree demon first turned green, then red.

But he didn't have time to notice the tree spirit's color change. He immediately switched to his teleportation ring, turned around, and teleported towards the torch 305 meters away.

With a flash of white light, he appeared 100 meters away, 105 meters from the tree demon.

Because no matter how hard you try, you have to dodge three times to get out of the way, and the farther you dodge, the faster and more vicious the tree demon's spikes become.

Lin Mu simply stopped running. Running would get him pricked anyway, and not running would also get him pricked. He just needed to manage to dodge three times to get 300 meters away.

Forget it, I'll just give up and wait for Flash to cool down.

Lin Mu didn't run, but the tree demon didn't care whether he ran or not.

The Flash cooldown was barely halfway through when a tremor ran under my feet.

He didn't move, gritting his teeth, closing his eyes, and standing in a horse stance, his muscles tense like an iron plate.

"clang……"

The spike struck his groin with a deep, muffled sound.

Lin Mu's mouth was wide open, his eyes were wide open, and he stood there frozen, like a wooden stake nailed to the ground.

This time it wasn't as painful as before, so it seems my preparations were effective, even if not very effective.

He gulped down a bottle of Sun Water. The golden liquid slid down his throat, and a warm sensation spread from his stomach, easing the soreness.

He continued to wait.

Five seconds of cooling down was just enough when another vibration came from under my feet.

With a thought, Lin Mu appeared 100 meters away in a flash of white light. At this moment, Lin Mu was 205 meters away from the tree demon.

Once Lin Mu had regained his footing, he looked back and saw that the ground spikes had pierced through the spot where he had just been standing, missed their target, and then retracted.

He counted the seconds, and two seconds later, the ground began to shake again.

Lin Mu raised his hand and cast an invisibility spell. The tree demon briefly lost Lin Mu's presence, and the tremor under its feet instantly disappeared.
