A scribble, cheap sketch, who would have thought it would be so dangerous.

The pitch-black tentacles were swift and inhumanly powerful, and a sturdy adult could not resist this sudden attack.

It's a pity that it met Tang Qi, who had been prepared for a long time.

At the moment when the sketch appeared and saw the faint brilliance in his eyes, Tang Qi almost subconsciously squirted out all the salt water in his mouth, and at the same time, a pair of white palms "boomed", and golden flames surged out.

The power of the furnace will not cause any damage to normal paper, but if it is an extraordinary sequence and belongs to the evil camp, then sorry.

Snort!

The sound of corrosion, those black tentacles and the blue salt water immediately reacted violently, and the tentacles were quickly corroded into gray spots and retracted into the drawing, but this could not be escaped, because the next moment the entire painting began to burn.

Like paper close to a flame, the heat causes it to turn yellow, curl slowly, and then begin to blacken.

The next step, perhaps, is to burn it to ashes completely.

"No~"

At the critical moment, there was a scream in the sketch.

A magnetic voice rang out, and a pink, obscene glow rose around the painting, struggling to resist the burning of the golden flames.

At this moment, Tang Qi finally saw the true face of the sketch.

It is a portrait of a middle-aged man dressed in a well-cut black robe, with a pale face, long hair tied back at the back of his head, a messy beard on his chin, and a pair of slightly reddish eyes that are unusually attractive.

At this time, it was this man who begged for mercy. With a bitter face, he opened his hands and shouted to Tang Qi: "Young wizard, please don't hurt me, I am willing to give all my knowledge and become one of your collections, let me go?"

Very professional performance!

Tang Qi sighed in his heart, but instead of disappearing, the flames of light that poured out of his hands became more and more intense.

Slightly lowered in the eyes, a special interface popped out.

[Strange Object: Gregory Self-Portrait.] 】

Status: Corrupting.] 】

[Information fragment 1: A self-portrait of the legendary demon monk Gregory of the Slavic states, because it is rendered by the magic of the ontology, it also has some extraordinary abilities, such as giving slaves unimaginable genitals, or controlling people's hearts. 】

[Information fragment 2: To make offerings to it, you need to sacrifice a virgin resentment every once in a while.] 】

"Gregory?"

Seeing the name, Tang Qi frowned at first, and then remembered a legend he had seen.

Before the Slavic states were annexed to the Europa League, there was a legendary monk who used his powerful sorcery and sexual prowess to enchant women and intoxicated the entire court, and was eventually lured and killed by a prince who used his wife's flesh as bait.

According to Donch's speculation, this Gregory should be a "monk" and possess an extremely high transcendent rank.

The small self-portrait in front of me also confirms this.

And, as in the fragmentation of information, it is very good at controlling people's hearts.

After it begged for mercy, Tang Qi's mind had many more babbling words, like countless people in his ears, some threatening him, some tempting, and some persuading...... In Tang Qi's heart, an impulse to let go of the sketch began to grow.

Hum!

Tang Qi let out a cold snort in his heart, and a golden stream flowed out of his head.

Whew!

The flames, several times more intense than before, completely swept the sketch, Tang Qi did let go of the sketch, but at that moment, the sketch had turned into a cloud of black ashes, floating towards the ground, and it disintegrated in mid-air, falling into black ashes.

A transcendent item, ruined by Tang Qi.

However, he did not feel sorry at all, and if he did not open the drawing, it might be worth collecting.

Alas, he opened it.

It's a very dangerous thing, if it doesn't destroy it, Tang Qi has to deal with it to prevent himself from being controlled, which is not in line with Tang Qi's psychological expectations, and it is best to completely destroy it.

Tang Qi shook his head, took a broom, and prepared to clean up the ashes.

At this moment, Tang Qi let out a light sigh, and his probe took out a lump of something from the black ash.

Hair?

That's right, that thing is a few dozen hairs tangled together.

With a slight shake, the black ash sprinkled down, revealing the true face of these hairs, not each of them was black, but all kinds of black, red, green, and purple were mixed together, which looked like a very complex knot.

Strangely, the hair wasn't as disgusting as the clumps that could be found everywhere in the sewers, but instead gave Tang Qi a sense of purity.

A faint glow flashed, and an interface appeared in Tang Qi's eyes.

[Strange Thing: Wonderful Hair Knot. 】

[Condition: Intact.] 】

[Fragment 1: Gregory self-portrait once had multiple slaves, each of whom killed the pure virgin and sacrificed the virgin's resentful soul to it, and the virgin's soul became entangled and eventually became this wonderful hair knot. 】

[Information fragment 2: With each untie a knot, you may gain the gratitude of the virgin soul, or you may gain a special kind of knowledge. 】

[Information fragment three: decryption method: use magic to patiently channel, break one, and the hair knot will all disappear. 】

"Interesting!"

Tang Qi pinched the colorful hair knot in his hand, and suddenly became interested.

The origin of the hair knot, Tang Qi could vaguely guess.

In the books he saw, the description of the legendary monk mentioned that he liked to collect virgin hair as trophies, and it was clear that Gregory's self-portraits were also tainted with the habit of the body, and finally by accident it turned out to be another otherworldly object.

It just so happened that he couldn't cultivate at this time, and other transcendent items, Tang Qi didn't think of the best way to deal with them for the time being. Put tonight's harvest, the fourteen canine teeth, the Scanner manuscript, and the Thurand Twin Blades all in the safe.

Then, Tang Qi made himself another pot of fragrant coffee, took out a small piece of cake from the refrigerator, returned to the bedroom on the second floor, sat cross-legged on the carpet, pinched the wonderful knot in his hand, and began to decipher it as the fragment said.

You can't use violence, you have to use magic and patience.

Tang Qi recalled in his mind, and at the same time stared at the first hair knot, which was two entangled hairs, one black and one red, which was not complicated.

Tang Qi slowly fed in the power of the furnace, and the magic that could burn Gregory's drawings did not hurt the hair, but made them appear softer, even as if they were about to come back to life, and Tang Qi suddenly heard the sound of some girls playing and playing in his mind.

Reflected in reality, when Tang Qi tries to untie the first knot, the other tangled hairs will twist and make trouble, like a group of naughty girls.

Tang Qi was very patient, and his white and slender fingers were very dexterous, guiding the magic power, pulling away the hairs one by one, and then untying the first knot very smoothly.

"Buzz"

When the hair knot was untied, the two hairs burned at the same time and disappeared into the hair group, but in front of Tang Qi, two girl figures appeared.

One was wearing a court lady dress, red hair, and a black mole on his nose, and was smiling gratefully at Tang Qi.

The other is a country girl, with black hair, a plump body, fair skin, and the same smile.

Seeing Tang Qi look over, they saluted at the same time, and then their figures slowly dissipated into the bedroom.

"Whew~"

A long breath came out of Tang Qi's mouth.

He got up, a faint smile on his face, and gave a gentlemanly salute to the two disappearing figures.

Obviously, by untying the first knot, Tang Qi did not gain knowledge, but the gratitude of the souls of the two maidens.

However, Tang Qi was very satisfied with this gain.

He sat back down, took a sip of the coffee next to him, and picked up the hair ball with both hands, ready to start untying the second hair knot.

At this time, there was movement on the first floor.

Ding Ding Ding!

The doorbell rang, and Tang Qi subconsciously glanced out the window.

It's still late at night, who will come to him at this point in time?
