Because of the injury on her face, Poison Concubine Mita immediately went berserk. She opened the mouth of the head she was holding and spewed out several soul crystal spears, but Sun Yang and Thomas were very agile and easily dodged these crystal spears.
The crystal spear, missing its target, shattered the ground and the pool. The Poison Queen lunged forward, thrusting her spear several times, but Thomas dodged each time. He stepped into the venom, and the pool beneath his feet splashed with the foul-smelling venom. As he dodged, he threw a Sun Sealing Spear. The Poison Queen, Mita, took the full brunt of it, her body burned and torn, excruciating pain.
Her turquoise body wasn't just for show; it was truly imbued with magical power. The venom in the pool continuously nourished her body, and her burned skin was visibly healing.
Sun Yang, not to be outdone, also cast a spell, holding back for a long time before finally firing the Sealed Sun. However, this shot of the Sealed Sun only left a few charred marks. Compared to Clown Thomas's power, Sun Yang still lacked the power of the fire.
242 Thomas, the Greatest Spellbinder
"Haha~ Brother Sun Yang~ Your spells still need to be honed~ You need to use them more~ There's an old Eastern saying: Practice makes perfect~" Thomas teased while doing a split on the spot to avoid the swing of the poisonous concubine Mida's spear.
His clown suit was soaked with venom, and Sun Yangguang was terrified at the mere thought of the stench emanating from it. Even so, Thomas continued to fight with unrestrained composure. However, the venom-soaked suit still somewhat affected his efficiency.
While Sun Yang and Thomas were constantly attacking the Poisonous Concubine Mida with the cursed fire, the Poisonous Concubine Mida used her body to block the Sealed Sun that Sun Yang had barely rubbed out, and then suddenly shot at Thomas and threw her own head out at the same time.
Thomas dodged the spear tip, but was struck by several soul spears spit out by the thrown head. These soul spears, which could easily shatter solid rock, failed to penetrate his body, only leaving two or four bloody holes.
Thomas was knocked flying, but before he fell to the ground, he still managed to accurately fire two Sealed Suns at the Poisonous Concubine Mida in mid-air, burying her body and head in a sea of fire.
He then did a backflip, drank a sip from the elemental bottle, and crushed three drip stones in one breath, allowing the power contained in the drip stones to repair his body.
"How did you do that..." Sun Yang watched Thomas complete this set of operations, and his bleeding abdomen was healing quickly.
"It's no big deal. My master is a great hero who has passed on the torch. I would be so sorry to him if I didn't learn a few more tricks." Thomas took off the clown hat stained with venom, wrung it dry, and put it back on.
It seems that he really doesn't care about the effects of absorbing the venom. Unlike Sun Yang, who is so desperate after breathing in the poison gas.
"Pass on the fire?" Sun Yang caught this word.
"He's from Lordran. He has nothing to do with you and me now." Thomas didn't care. After all, Lordran was a thing of the ancient mythical era in this era.
What the hell, the disciple of the immortal chosen by heaven?
No wonder Thomas's strength was much stronger than Sun Yang had imagined. If he was a strong man who had survived from the previous generation, it was normal for him to be so powerful.
Ordinary adventurers would carefully select their armor and equipment, but this guy no longer needed to think about how to defend against attacks, he could just choose the clothes he liked.
Only undead beings who are strong enough have this option.
"Stop chatting, the Poison Concubine is still alive, and my wounds have healed, let's get on with our work. Hey, you guy, if you had just gone and destroyed the windmill you wouldn't have gone through so much trouble." Thomas complained.
The Poison Queen absorbed power from the venom, and the water level in the poison pool dropped a lot.
Sun Yang did not forget to output when talking to Thomas, but the damage of the Sealed Sun he created could not keep up with the other person's recovery speed.
The toxic venom that flows out contains unique magical powers. As long as Mida walks in it, she will gain various benefits.
Sun Yang's own understanding was that it was something like fire resistance or spell resistance. These powers were constantly flowing in and out of her body.
Poison Concubine Mida felt that Thomas was difficult to deal with and immediately turned to Sun Yang. After all, he was an enemy whose attacks were slower than her own health recovery. Poison Concubine Mida decided to kill the weaker one and then deal with the sorcerer.
Sun Yang decisively gave up on his plan to cast a spell. Damn it, this guy seems to have a high fire resistance after soaking in the poison pool! If Sealing the Sun doesn't work, then try my Thunder Spear!
A several-meter-long golden lightning spear suddenly appeared in Sun Yang's hand, and he threw it at the Poison Concubine Mi Da without hesitation. The Poison Concubine, who had already transformed into a headless snake demon, had never expected this to happen, and directly swallowed Sun Yang's full forehead with the lightning spear.
Crack!
The violent roar of thunder and lightning echoed in the palace.
Although Mida was not disintegrated by the blow, she was seriously injured by the lightning spear. A large hole was blasted in her chest, and her upper body was covered with radiating crimson marks.
This is a miracle that contains the power of armor-piercing and lightning. No matter how tough her body is, it will be difficult to withstand attacks with opposing attributes.
She trembled and tried to get up and continue fighting, but her body, affected by the lightning, could not move freely. The lightning spear temporarily paralyzed her muscles and nerves.
"Beautiful! Sun Yang! Truly beautiful!" Thomas on the other side was unreserved in his praise. He threw out several Sealed Suns in one breath, and while the Poison Concubine Mida was still recovering, he directly wrapped her in extremely high-temperature flames. "Just this last breath!"
Sun Yang followed Thomas's method of sealing the sun and kept throwing his lightning spear at the Poison Concubine Mida who was lying on the ground and unable to move.
After several rounds of firepower, the Poison Queen was finally unable to draw power from the poison pool. When the power to cast magic was exhausted, she was completely reduced to a charred corpse.
A massive soul surged out of the fire in front of Sun Yang, part of it flying towards him, the other towards Thomas. After all, the boss's soul had dispersed completely, and there were two soul absorbers here, so they each absorbed a portion.
From the charred body of the Poisonous Concubine Mida, Sun Yang fished out a large condensed soul. This special soul did not dissipate.
Someone could use this soul to refine special weapons or spells. Sun Yang was reluctant to give it away, so he kept it.
Thomas took off his hat and twisted it, his figure gradually becoming blurred.
"Speaking of which, why is it that after I defeat a powerful enemy, the summoned spirit leaves..." Sun Yang calculated that this was his first time summoning people to fight.
"The dissipation of a powerful soul can affect the time and space of this area. Soul, flame, time and space all influence each other." Thomas shook his head and said a bunch of riddles.
"It was a truly exhilarating battle, Sun Yang. Let's meet again if we're lucky. I have a feeling we might meet again." Thomas patted his gloves stained with venom and saluted in a standard manner.
"Yeah, well, ah." Sun Yang nodded vaguely. He didn't refuse nor agree. Although this guy was indeed very strong, it was really hard for Sun Yang to accept that he would suddenly punch you and pass on his skills.
The clown's figure completely disappeared. The only ones left in the entire bedroom were Sun Yang and Mita's body, which had been burned to ashes on the ground.
Walking along the corridor of the palace, I found a beautifully decorated, yet dusty room deep inside. It looked like the Poisonous Concubine Mita hadn't lived here for a long time.
Sun Yang's shoes, stained with poison, left several footprints on the floor. He pushed open the door to the farthest corner of the dormitory. Here was a large open-air balcony, offering a panoramic view of everything in front of him.
Around the balcony were numerous maids with their heads and bodies severed, as well as servants who had transformed into zombies, sitting on the ground and shaking their heads. Sun Yang ignored these zombies, his gaze gazing out across the balcony into the distance.
At the limit of vision, at the horizon, one seems to be able to see an endless volcanic landscape, where the sky is blackened and the ground is covered with gullies of magma.
Several towers built on the volcanic landscape stand proudly, and several towns built of metal and stone are scattered around them.
That was the location of the Iron Kingdom. It was also a place Rukatiye couldn't reach. Sun Yang wondered how the people there managed to survive... Could it be that they just kept exporting high-quality iron, doing business, and then investing the money in the military, gradually turning the Ancient Iron Kingdom into a formidable nation? Then one had to admit that the former Iron King had something special.
"No wonder she couldn't get through. How come this Molten Iron City and the Black Mist Tower were built together?" Sun Yang was also dumbfounded.
No, they should be together. Wouldn't it be reasonable for the Molten Iron Kingdom to not have the Black Mist Tower?
But it's really amazing that Rukatiye can fight in such an environment... The enemies in the Black Mist Tower are quite strong.
Sun Yang did not move forward rashly. He lit the campfire with his soul in his heart, returned to Rumi first, and then made follow-up plans.
243 Searching for Rukatiye
"Haven't you come back yet?" After returning to Rumi to find the green-robed girl to recharge his batteries, Sun Yang hurried back to his room. However, he found no one inside.
"Have you seen Rukatiye?" Sun Yang ran out and asked several old residents of Rumi.
"Are you talking about the girl who keeps popping into your house for no reason?" Blacksmith Renigaz spoke first. "After you left, a few undead who can keep track of dates and times returned and settled down. I asked around for you, and it's been a month since Rukatiye left."
"Thank you so much, Renigaz, but she should be back." Sun Yang frowned.
"It's normal to come back a day early or late. Didn't you stay outside for a long time before coming back?" Renigaz didn't think there was anything strange.
Sun Yang gave Reinijaz a bottle of strong liquor in return. Even an undead with almost no sense of taste could taste this kind of liquor. Reinijaz took a sniff and showed a happy expression.
Sun Yang continued to ask people with a sweet smile. When he asked about Rumi the cat, the cat gave a different explanation: "Oh, Sun Yang, I'm just kindly reminding you. The little girl you've been thinking about may not be able to hold on for much longer. Does she not have much time left?"
"Is she about to turn into a zombie?" Sun Yang asked.
"She smells terrible. She looks like she's about to be devoured. You taste much better in comparison~" Cat Sharrager let out a chuckle from his throat.
"So no one knows where she went?" Sun Yang said a little frustrated.
"Who else would reveal their itinerary? Do you think you can find her?" The cat turned over.
"Hush! Stop talking nonsense. Oh, I just remembered. Sun Yang, if you care about her, hurry up. That girl is indeed mentally unstable. The last time I saw her, she could hardly speak clearly. Why don't you take a look and see if she left anything for you? Is that girl your comrade-in-arms? She wouldn't leave without any explanation." The blacksmith interrupted.
"No, we are not that familiar with each other, we just get along well. She is a nice person, I just don't want her to die in some messy place." Sun Yang said firmly.
"You are not that familiar with the place, yet you are still willing to go looking for someone? Are you a pushover? Even if you find someone, you still want to send him away. Isn't that thing very valuable?" The blacksmith scratched his head.
"How is that possible? I never accept rewards without doing anything. I always insist on fair trade in everything I do. There is no way I will suffer a loss. The only difference is small profit and big profit. I want to be like Asan. I want to find another companion as good as her, but I can't find one even with a lantern. This deal is a good deal." Sun Yang muttered a lot.
"There's a huge difference between what you said and what you're going to do. Well, if you care, go look for clues. I suggest you go see if she left any messages. I don't have the information you want, so stop chatting with me and get out of here." The blacksmith waved his hammer and told Sun Yang to get out.
Unable to obtain any useful information, Sun Yang immediately left. He returned to his own house and carefully looked through the notebook, trying to find some clues.
Rukatiye said a month, and that must have been it. Since he hadn't returned, she had to act alone—but after becoming stronger, one might naturally become arrogant and want to challenge even stronger enemies.
Unless Rukatiye encountered some problem that prevented her from returning to the campfire to teleport?
Think about it, where would she level up? Somewhere familiar? What do you mean by somewhere familiar?! Damn you, Rukatiye! Write down exactly where she's going!
Wait, this information was left for me, so it might be a place we are familiar with. Sun Yang racked his brains, where did Rukatiye go with him?
...Is it only in Secret Harbor? I only encountered it once at the Earth Pile Tower.
Sun Yang hadn't actually had much contact with Rukatiye, but the road from Mi Port to Rumi was relatively familiar to him. As for other places... Sun Yang always broke his promise and failed to explore with her.
Then let's go to Secret Harbor. Sun Yang immediately walked towards the campfire and teleported himself there.
As his vision blurred, Sun Yang returned to this dark and damp cave.
It was no different from before Sun Yang left, still as disgusting as before, with pirate zombies wandering around and various sorcerers who had been subjected to human experiments. Even though Sun Yang had become very powerful, he still didn't like this place.
But if you're talking about honing your combat skills, this treacherous place is definitely up to the task. The complex terrain, the powerful monsters, and the countless zombies that stab you from the shadows are just too numerous to count.
If Rukatiye hadn't gone anywhere else, this would indeed be a good place.
Sun Yang gave his power suit a final check. He released several small drones to join the battle, then stepped into the secret harbor.
These drones are experimental machines produced by Oasis, equipped with special silenced weapons and stealth modules, and the noise problem during flight has also been properly handled.
These are all technical reserves for future battles. Just because they are not used now does not mean they will not be used in the future.
As he absorbed more and more souls, Sun Yang's perception of their flow became increasingly sharp. To put it in a more vivid way, after killing an enemy, Sun Yang could barely see where the tiny souls that burst out of their bodies were heading.
Drones spread out around Sun Yang, leaving the hidden, sensitive pirates and bandits unaware. These small hunting drones fired soft electromagnetic steel balls, piercing the enemy's heads from top to bottom.
The effect of these drones is really good. When the humanoids are carrying out infiltration missions in the future, they can make both the drones and the humanoids invisible, and they can easily travel around the entire base.
Sun Yang stared at the few souls that flew out of the house. Because he was wearing the Greedy Silver Snake Ring, souls hundreds of meters away would fly to his side without any unexpected circumstances.
But as long as there are no dead people, they will absorb the souls nearby. This is an unchanging truth. Although I have heard that the space-time structure here is relatively stable and there is a greater possibility of encountering each other, to be honest, Sun Yang is not sure.
But when Sun Yang killed an enemy on a distant hillside, the soul in his body did not fly towards him, but flew downwards. Something else was absorbing the soul.
Is it her? Or maybe it's just another undead passing by. I should check it out anyway.
Sun Yang cautiously moved in that direction. Whoever the other party was, they should have noticed something was amiss. After all, a new soul had entered their body.
There are still many enemies in this area, so be careful not to attract the zombies from afar. Otherwise, the zombies will kill the hidden undead before you can go to rescue them.
244 Wake up!
The closer he got, the more familiar it felt to Sun Yang. This house seemed very similar to the place where he first met Rukatiye.
The house was completely silent, and Sun Yang took off his helmet and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Rukatiye, is that you? Are you here?" Sun Yang stepped into the dark house. The fire pots lit around the house provided a faint light for the house.
A figure sat against the wall. It must have been a woman. She wore a fancy hat, and her knight's vest, pristine white sleeves, and traveling trousers had become stained. Her sword and shield lay in front of her, ready to swing at any time.
"..." The woman raised her head, revealing a cold yet familiar face beneath her hat. Her face was already mostly black and wrinkled, the curse of a zombie creeping over her.
"Even...even you, appeared in my...hallucination? It's terrible, I can't...forget your face." Rukatiye's hoarse voice came out of his mouth.
"Rukatiye? Stay awake, I'm here to save you." Sun Yang walked over slowly. She was on the verge of becoming a zombie and could not be provoked casually.
"Rukatiye? Oh, that's, that's my name? So in the end, I was the one hoping for your rescue? It's been ages since I last saw you. Well, in this, this... this damn place, only you're willing to help me... What a wonderful dream... If it weren't for you, I would have died on the road... Let me thank you, even if you're just an illusion." Rukatiye's gaze focused on Sun Yang, revealing a slight smile.
"This curse is so terrible. I have forgotten so many things... It's so scary... I, I am so scared... Hey, are you still there? Don't go... Don't go..." Rukatiye's eyes flashed with strange light, and she waved her hands randomly, fearing that Sun Yang in front of her would leave.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'm here. I won't leave, not this time. You need a statue to lift the curse, and I've brought it to you. You'll be fine." Sun Yang slowly approached. If he moved too much, it would be bad if she got scared. God knows what someone on the verge of becoming a zombie would do.
"Hahaha... Why would I have such a dream? My mind is all confused... In the end, I will die in this dark corner? Why did I come here? My past... Damn it, I can't remember it." Rukatiye was still staring blankly at the air, muttering to himself.
"Rukatiye, wake up, I'm really here. Think about your face and pinch this thing quickly." Sun Yang stuffed the portrait into Rukatiye's hand.
"Oh, what am I doing? I mistook dirt for a statue again? I might as well go invade someone else, while they can still move... But, Miller's honor... Miller, what is Miller?" Rukatiye tossed the statue aside and continued muttering to herself. She must have been driven mad by the zombie transformation.
Sun Yang hesitated for a moment, but finally felt that saving people was more important.
"I'm sorry." Sun Yang reached out and pinched Rukatiye's pretty cheek, turning it red. Rukatiye instinctively threw a backhand punch. Sun Yang quickly ducked back, dodging the swift blow.
Although the undead didn't care about this level of pain at all, Rukatiye slowly woke up from his belief in the hallucination.
"Yes, it hurts a little... Who is that guy? Huh? Sun Yang? Is it really you? Why are you here?" Rukatiye asked vaguely. Although she wanted to act surprised, the torture of the zombie transformation made her unable to speak clearly.
"It's me, it's me. I feel really bad that I didn't look for you this long, but I just returned to this world recently, and I came to see you the day after I came back. Quickly, pinch this portrait away." Sun Yang quickly stuffed the enemy's portrait over.
"But I can't remember my face anymore..." Rukatiye was still not clear-headed. She just instinctively developed a sense of trust after seeing Sun Yang, and then mechanically did what Sun Yang said.
