This isn't a souls-like game at all.

"But unfortunately, no one has ever had any real communication with them."

The old gentleman Yakitti then shook his head.

"The Abyssal Dead are beings transformed after being infected by the Abyssal Darkness, a secondary derivative of the Curse of Stagnation. They are dead but still exist in some form."

Ye Yiyi casually said, "The same is true for the craftsmen in the workshop. Although they are dead, their skills and loyalty as craftsmen remain. In addition, they have no feelings or emotions, so they will not discriminate against you... Maybe?"

"discriminate?"

Everyone looked at each other, some of them confused.

“Discrimination…what do you mean?”

Bao Xia asked curiously.

“It’s like a human watching a gorilla.”

Ye Yiyi said expressionlessly.

"what?"

Bao Xia was stunned, and the three elderly men were silent.

"Is this situation... common?"

Ogram asked meaningfully.

"At least it's very common among curse-bearers."

Ye Yiyi looked at Obdo and suddenly laughed.

"As far as I know, some Curse-Bearers have reached a cooperation with some factions within the Sons of Cyber. Obudo, have the Curse-Bearers contacted you?"

"There was indeed a person with an unknown identity and a very arrogant attitude who approached me before."

Obudo replied in a slightly distorted electronic voice, "They wanted me to help them explore the workshop, but I refused."

"Well, I didn't lie."

Ye Yiyi nodded in the face of everyone's puzzled looks, then took out a stone and threw it to the old philosopher.

Obudo reached out to take it, a hint of surprise showing from the red light flashing under his hood.

Timothy looked at this scene and seemed to understand something. He took two steps back and took a alert posture.

Ogram noticed the Highlander's actions, and although he didn't know what was happening, he still quietly tensed his body.

Seeing that Shitou didn't react at all, Ye Yi nodded and spoke.

"Give the stone to Ogram."

The magic master took the ordinary-looking stone, looked at it over and over, but found nothing strange about it.

"Next, give it to Baoxia."

"Eh? Do I want one too?"

Baoxia pointed at herself, then looked at the stone handed to her by Ogram. She opened the vertical eye on her forehead a little and glanced at it subconsciously.

"The Ego Stone...?"

He took the stone with a raised eyebrow and couldn't help muttering.

"Next, Jacques..."

The old gentleman standing behind Baoxia suddenly jumped up, smashed a black stone to the ground with his backhand, then turned around and rushed towards the gate.

Timothy, who was well prepared, suddenly took a step forward and punched the old man who was as swift as a leopard.

Yakit had a blank expression on his face, but blood vessels bulged out on his old cheeks.

He threw a punch casually and faced the tall Timothy head-on.

"Crack!!"

The Highlander showed an expression of disbelief. Its thick right arm suddenly broke and its huge body flew backwards heavily.

"Yakti! What are you doing!!"

The magic master's eyes widened and he roared angrily. He drew the long sword from his waist with his backhand, leaped behind the old gentleman who was blocked by the Highlanders, and chopped him down heavily.

"clang!!"

As the magic master looked horrified, the long sword made of fine steel in his hand suddenly shattered the moment it landed on the opponent's shoulder.

Yakti raised his palm backhand, and the power in his palm spread out, turning into a gust of wind and hitting Orgram away.

He used this counter-thrust to retreat violently, and the moment he approached the gate, he saw a golden light suddenly appear before his eyes.

Ye Yiyi emerged from the light, floating in the air, his arms folded across his chest, looking down indifferently.

"Yakti, where are you going?"

Chapter 649: Pure iron waste.

The sudden change shocked almost everyone present.

Bao Xia had barely taken the stone when she heard Ogram's deafening roar from behind her.

"Yakti! What are you doing!!"

"what?"

Bao Xia subconsciously turned around, and the Highlander Timothy turned into a shadow and flew out of his sight, hitting the wall heavily, shaking the entire tavern slightly, and the crystal chandelier above his head swayed back and forth.

"clang!"

Then there was a crisp sound of metal breaking, and Ogram followed in Timothy's footsteps.

Bao Xia subconsciously shrank his head, watching the magic master fly over his head in a mess and slam into the other wall. Only then did he realize what had just happened.

In just a moment, Yakti, the leader of the Hunting God Church in Xiti City, defeated the Highlander Timos and the Knight Master of All Beings, Ogrim! ?

"How can this be?"

Bao Xia's eyes widened.

He drew the long sword from his waist, and looked back at the same time as Obdo, who took out a short stick and a pistol, only to see Ye Yiyi appear in front of the gate at some point.

He folded his hands across his chest, hovering in front of the tavern door with an expressionless face, his deep blue eyes lowered as he uttered a calm questioning tone.

"Yakti, where are you going?"

The blond king in white just stood there, like an unshakable mountain, blocking all the old hunter's escape routes.

Baoxia and Obdo looked at each other subconsciously and exchanged glances.

With King Michaela here, it seems... it's not their turn to take action at all?

The two men put down their weapons tacitly and ran towards the two people who were knocked away.

At the same time, Yakti braked suddenly, stopped his forward momentum, and stopped in front of Ye Yiyi.

He raised his head, and from under the black tall hat that seemed to be welded to his head, he revealed an old face with the same expressionless face but bulging veins.

Ye Yiyi stared into the old hunter's cloudy dark brown eyes, but did not read any emotions that could be understood by humans.

The cosmic spiritual light spread out silently, enveloping the other party.

But the sounds coming from the spiritual light were only a few fragmented words like a dream talk.

Ye Yiyi could vaguely feel that a strange existence was covering Yakti's cosmic aura, sealing the old hunter's will, soul and true spirit inside, and controlling the body on behalf of the old hunter.

"You are not Yakti!"

He frowned coldly, but saw the old hunter grinning and giving him a mocking smile.

"Yakti" raised his hand and grabbed, and a civilized staff with a black lacquered copper head fell into his hand.

But at the same time, two deep black lights suddenly appeared!

The sturdy civilization staff corroded and broke under the dim light, turning into black crystals of various sizes that scattered all over the ground.

The old hunter's smile froze, and he couldn't help but look at Ye Yiyi, whose eyes were emitting dark beams of light and whose indifferent face was hidden in the misty black fog.

"Surrender and I will spare your life."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yakti's expression disappeared and he remained silent.

He stood still, as if giving up resistance, and began to tidy up the slightly messy clothes on his chest.

But his eyes were still staring at Ye Yiyi, the elegant and gentlemanly demeanor of the old hunter disappeared, and the whole person revealed an inhuman emptiness and indifference.

Then he spoke coldly.

"So many years have passed...you kings are still so arrogant and look down on everyone."

“It’s…disgusting!”

"what?"

Hearing this, not only Ye Yiyi, but also the people who were watching here not far away were suddenly stunned.

"What did he mean by that?"

Ogram couldn't help but look at Baoxia beside him.

Although the magic master was hit head-on by Yakitti, his body had undergone a qualitative change after long-term training, and its strength was far beyond that of the Highlanders who were born with strong physiques.

As a result, Timothy broke an arm, but the magic master was not seriously injured, but looked a little embarrassed.

But even so, Orgram is also an extremely powerful warrior, not to mention that he has various magic spells specialized in combat. Even in the game, he can be a BOSS-level enemy with his own exclusive hymn.

But such an existence not only failed to successfully block the way of "Yakti", but was even knocked away by the other party?

Originally, the magic master found it a little unbelievable, wondering how the Curse Master could have such power to strengthen an ordinary old hunter to a level comparable to his own?

But after hearing what the other party said to Ye Yiyi, he suddenly realized.

That "Yakti" wasn't the real Yakti, but an old monster with his face and appearance, from the same era as the King! !

As soon as Ogram realized this, he hurriedly urged Baoxia.

"Baoxia, hurry! Don't you have that all-seeing eye? Come and see what he is!!"

"This... isn't it? I've actually been watching! But he is Yakti?"

Bao Xia was also a little confused. The vertical eye on his forehead was actually staring at "Yakti".

But no matter how it looked at it, the information that appeared in his mind was still "Bordering Human Yakti".

"Heh~"

"Yakti" glanced back at Baoxia and sneered contemptuously.

"I was worried about being exposed before, but now it seems that the so-called superiors and the public eye are all useless! No wonder he is imprisoned in that workshop! He will not be free for ten thousand years!"

"If you can't see it, then you can't see it. Then why did you suddenly lose control and try to run away?"

Bao Xia was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened and she started mocking "Yakti".

"After all, aren't you planning to escape because you're afraid that the Ego Stone will detect something abnormal?"

"You're just bragging like you're so awesome, and you're calling His Highness disgusting?"

"Bah! Why don't you have the courage to fight His Highness?!"

"Yakti's" expression became more and more indifferent. Suddenly, he raised his hand and pointed at Baoxia, grasping the air with his palm.

"bass!"

A golden wall of light suddenly rose from the ground, blocking "Yakti" and Baoxia.

Bao Xia waited for a moment, but didn't see any changes in himself, so he couldn't help but sneer at "Yakti" across the light curtain of the natural chasm.

"What? Are you angry because of what I said?"

"It seems I was right. You don't dare to mess with the strong, so you pick on the weak. Aren't you just a piece of pure trash? Why are you pretending to be a thousand-year-old monster?"

"Yakti" seemed to be irritated and turned his head to stare at Baoxia.

"Foolish mortals..."

But then, it heard two chuckles behind it.
