"I really want to … swallow them!"
In the notebook, Fang Xian resisted the desire to swallow the spirituality.
Mei Li, Ivy, White Stone … the three of them had three strange items. If he swallowed all of them, he could probably regain some mobility … even if it was through the notebook.
However, his influence on the outside world was limited. Being able to see and hear was already his limit.
Unless he opened up an alternate dimension and used the curse as a medium, he would not be able to use his Primordial Spirit to unleash a certain amount of power.
"Patience is a virtue … This place is obviously stranger. We even wiped out a team of swordsmen. There will only be more strange items!"
"Hmm? Is the first wave of attack coming? Interesting! "
Fang Xian sensed something and looked at the rain falling from the sky.
…
"Captain?"
White Stone and Ivy both looked at Mei Li.
No matter how arrogant they were, they knew that it was suicide to be so reckless when dealing with a strange case.
They had to cooperate and obey orders. This was what they had been taught since the first day they entered the training camp.
"This rain might be strange. Although we've put up some protection, it's not good to be drenched for a long time … We've been told to be careful of the rain. Let's enter the building first."
Mei Li quickly made her decision.
The four of them quickly moved toward the building.
At this moment, a transparent human silhouette appeared in the rain around the four of them.
It suddenly reached out its hand toward Ivy.
The heavy rain blocked their vision, and the human silhouette was almost transparent. There were only slight changes in the rain. Even Mei Li did not notice the transparent silhouette that suddenly appeared.
The next moment, the transparent hand grabbed the black umbrella in Ivy's hand.
Bang!
As if something was burnt, the black umbrella in Ivy's hand turned into ashes. Like the umbrella, it was her raincoat. Next … it was her body's turn.
At this moment, a pink hair clip suddenly appeared on Ivy's hair. Its surface turned as red as blood.
Her hair grew rapidly, wrapping her whole body into a black cocoon, blocking the invisible hand's grasp.
"Ambush!"
At this moment, Hei Jie realized something was wrong. Following his trained instinct, he abandoned the umbrella and rolled to the side.
Although the curse of the strange item that he possessed was very powerful, it was no different from trash if he could not obtain the target's blood and name.
At the critical moment, he needed to learn how to save himself first before he could try to save others!
A pitch-black chain appeared in White Stone's hand, and he tossed it toward the transparent figure.
Huala!
The black chain smashed into the muddy road, but it didn't catch anything.
"Go!"
Merry roared and the group rushed into the building.
It was raining cats and dogs outside, which was the home field of the transparent figure. It would be unwise to fight against it.
What's more … they couldn't be certain that the other party was the root of the problem. Recklessly bringing out all of their trump cards would only result in a team wipe.
"Are you all right?" Merry asked.
"It's fine!" Hei Jie thought to himself. A transparent figure? There seemed to be no blood or name. What should he do?
"I'm fine!" White Stone put away the chain. Black Jie, who had been watching him, had no idea where he had hidden the chain.
"I'm fine …" Ivy's hair curled back. "It's just that the umbrella and raincoat are gone …"
"It's best not to come into direct contact with the rain. If we let the reserve members bring the equipment in, we might be attacked …" Merry said. "Some of our people came in earlier, so there must be extra equipment. We can look for it here …"
Merry looked around and saw that there were many raincoats. There was a big bucket by the door, filled with umbrellas of all colors. She was relieved.
Tap tap!
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from the corridor, getting closer.
The four of them immediately went on guard. Merry shone her flashlight over.
In the darkness, a figure appeared.
He was wearing a black uniform and a raincoat. There were many wounds on his body, and the edges of the wounds were pale. It seemed like all the blood in his body had drained.
On his chest, there was a black iron badge.
"It's the iron mercenary, the leader in charge of guarding this area …" Merry said in a low voice. "He's already dead … controlled by the strange thing on him!"
Hei Jie's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly realized that strange things could go out of control!
An entire team had been wiped out here. What would happen if the source of the item that the members carried went out of control?
Even if … their sealed items were carefully chosen, and the negative effects were minimal, what would happen when they overlapped and affected each other?
"The rule of a swordsman is that after death, the item must be retrieved immediately. If you're about to die, there's no more hope. Before you die, you must seal your strange item!"
Merry said in a low voice. "Now that this swordsman has failed in his duty, we'll make up for it. His strange item is the badge on his chest, codenamed — Iron Blood Badge. Its ability is to give the bearer immense strength, carry a curse, and have a certain ability to control corpses … "
"So … it can control this swordsman's body after he's dead?" Hei Jie reached into his backpack and grabbed the notebook. "Should I curse him?"
If so, this time, he would be the one to get the blood himself.
"Close combat is too dangerous …" Merry said. "White Stone, assist him. Ivy, I'll hold him back!"
As she spoke, a ball of fire appeared in her hand. She smashed it on the man in the corridor, and it exploded.
Waves of heat swept across.
However, after the fire, the man was still standing straight. Although his clothes were torn, the badge did not fall, as if it had grown directly into his flesh.
"This level … can't be considered human anymore, right?"
Hei Jie glanced at the man's chest. Other than a black spot, there were no other injuries.
Suddenly, the corpse was startled by the fire and quickly rushed toward Merry.
"Now."
Ivy's hair grew again and covered the ground like vines, grabbing onto the corpse's legs.
From White Stone's chest, a metal chain flew out and smashed onto the corpse. It circled around and tightly covered the place where the badge was.
The curses of the two strange items erupted at the same time, and the corpse suddenly stopped moving like a statue.
"Done!"
White Stone's eyes moved as he spoke.
"Why …"
Hei Jie stared at his chest in disbelief. "How can the metal chain come out of the chest?"
"When the resonance degree reaches a certain level, the strange item will fuse with the bearer … Most of the time, it's not a pleasant experience …"
Merry took two steps forward. "For example, White Stone's chain should have grown directly into his heart, replacing part of his bones and flesh …"
Looking at the calm White Stone, Hei Jie suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Rather than a fusion, it was more like some kind of strange parasitism!
