"Good...... It's painful, what's ...... here."

I wanted to break free from the rope, but my hands were still tightly bound.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Every cough seems to cause a broken rib. The energy of the whole body seems to flow backwards, and the body temperature gradually decreases because it feels colder and colder.

"No! ”

Be sure to hold out until the guy arrives.

The man grabbed the wrist of the little girl behind him and was running desperately, and behind them were several soldiers riding on the back of the Phantom Feather Bird. Dressed in military leather jackets, they are chasing the "prey".

After all, the running speed of people is far less than the speed of the feather bird, and the distance between the two is getting smaller and smaller. Due to panic, the man actually fell, and the little girl behind him was also implicated and fell to the ground one after another. The soldiers in the back took the opportunity to catch them.

"Got it! Knight Morati. ”

At this moment, a large and armored ghostly bird approached, and sitting on it was a man wearing a bright red cloak and a leather jacket with iron scales.

"Very well, credit to you. The big ones are taken away, and the small ones don't have much aura, so let them go. After the man finished speaking, he took out a comb from his breastplate, combed his long gray hair, and said, "Now looking for an adult male is like looking for flesh on a skeleton." ”

Seeing the man being forcibly taken away, the little girl could only scream and cry bitterly.

"Tsk...... I'm dying of noise, but I'm just borrowing your brother for the time being. ”

"Knight Morati, or take her with you. Said the soldier who had just made a meritorious service.

"She's just a child! What if it were known that I, Knight Morati, don't spare even a child. Your ugly thoughts must be eradicated!"

"Yes! I'm sorry for the gaffe. ”

The army, which was considered an army, returned to the camp stationed near the pyramidal energy tower.

As soon as the bird was down, Morati ordered loudly: "Put that ration in the pot quickly." ”

The rations that Morati was talking about were the same as the man who had just been arrested. And the so-called pot is a military prison used for centralized detention.

"Yes!"

"I've said it a few times, don't let me hear the word 'obey'! ”

"Yes!" was the soldier again.

Adult ghosts, especially males, possess strong spiritual powers, which can increase their energy by constantly absorbing them. And Morati himself calls himself a "ghost knight", and in the spirit of chivalry, he does not catch children and women, which is different from the enemy he wants to defeat - the ghost king.

The Ghost King's approach is not only to capture men, but also to women and children. This is actually nothing, the most important thing is the world of difference in the way the two people extract spiritual power: Morati only extracts the spiritual power accumulated in the ghost's daily life, which will not affect the recipient, while the ghost king uses the method of "squeezing" to extract the spiritual power of the recipient's whole body in every possible way, and the result of this is naturally due to spiritual exhaustion.

In order to be able to defeat the Ghost King, Morati could only continuously improve his spiritual power, so he had to attack his fellow people. At the same time, what made Morati regret and puzzle was what Princess Mononoke did. He was overjoyed when he learned that the princess had escaped from the "prison" of the ghost castle, so that he would have the opportunity to win over the princess and facilitate his follow-up plans. However, it backfired, and this "stupid" princess volunteered to stoop to the slums to help the poor.

Either way, the spiritual power required is almost sufficient.

Morati came to the yurt-shaped prison and signaled to the guards at the door. After entering the door, nearly 100 adult males were tied to each other. They threw angry, complaining glances at Morati like poisoned arrows.

"I'm so sorry, fellow citizens. I will definitely defeat the Ghost King and regain his former glory!"

Thinking inwardly, Morati departed gloomily.

In the deep thorn forest, a mountain road covered with sand and gravel winds up. On the way, a man and a woman were on their way.

"I said Pinny, she can ride a feather bird, so why do you have to walk hard. ”

"I forgot to tell you, but the Feather Bird has a quirk, which is that it will never go down the gravel road. ”

"It's weird enough. ”

"So let's be honest with our feet. ”

At this time, the two of them were already more than an hour away from the village where they had set off. Since the road slopes upward, you can see the entire ghost town through the gaps in the thorn forest.

"I said Pinny, how long is it to get there? ”

Kakat stopped and hammered his legs.

"I'm a princess anyway, so can't I add the word 'princess'?" Of course...... If you call me that, I won't be able to stand it. ”

“……”

Kakat looked at Bini wordlessly, and there was a subtle awkwardness in this atmosphere.

After walking and chatting with this princess for more than an hour, he realized that this princess was really just a name: putting aside the seemingly serious code name of princess, she was no different from an ordinary girl, no, it should be said, she was easier to get along with than Kakat imagined.

“…… Can't you say something? ”

Benny quickened her pace and strode forward.

"Actually, there's a strange thing. Kakat followed Penny, "Not long ago, I heard Anri's voice. ”

"Oh, generally speaking, you only have to make a 'link' to do this. ”

"How do you know?" said Kakat as he looked at Benny in surprise, "I had an 'energy shuttle link' with Anri. ”

"So you're all part of the same energy shuttle. ”

"Well, I'm still the Shuttle Master. ”

As soon as Kakat finished his words with a hint of ostentation, Bini swallowed back the voice that almost burst out laughing, and stared at Kakat with an eye that stared at an unknown creature.

"It's true, what kind of eyes do you have? ”

As if insulted, Kakat ignored Beni and continued on his way.

"I don't mean anything else. This time it was Binnie's turn to catch up with Kakate, "I just don't think I can see it at all." ”

Kakat didn't want to dwell on such a pointless question any longer, so he asked, "There is a question that has always bothered me, why Anri, who was hit by the Vampire King, appeared in the hands of the Ghost King. ”

"It's because of the 'energy video interoperability'. ”

"What's that?"

"What?!, as the master of the shuttle, you don't even know this. "I don't know how many times Pinny was surprised.

Kakat regretted that he hadn't read the energy book thoroughly, and these common senses must have been explained in detail in the book. However, he still pretended to be calm and said, "Instead of being surprised, it is better to explain it to me." ”

Binny glanced at her and continued: "Each energy person's move in the form of energy will correspond to a concrete booklet, which will record in detail the energy of the move, the control field, and a certain growth status, etc., this is the energy record. For those who have an energy shuttle, the energy record is generally stored in the data tower, while for the energy person who does not have an energy shuttle, although there is a concept of energy log, it cannot be seen with the naked eye.

"And the energy recording interoperability, simply put, is that there is a one-way or two-way 'channel' between the energy records of two moves. You say that your companion Anri was hit by the Vampire King, so after being hit, Anri followed this 'passage' to one of the Ghost King's tricks. ”

"A trick?"

Compared to what Penny just said, this one is more attractive to Kakate.

"I think it's the 'Ghost Sealing Array', an energy array used to imprison and absorb the energy of the prey in the array. ”

"No wonder I feel that Anri's energy is getting weaker and weaker. Kakat said with some confidence.

"So, do you understand what I just said?" said Bennie, interrogating Kakat like a teacher examining a student.

"I don't understand. ”

"Can't you just be careful? Don't be so careless, okay?"

Looking at Bini's stern expression, Kakat really felt that she should become a teacher.

"Besides, who wants to join your energy shuttle like you, it's so insecure. Tell me in advance that I won't be joining this energy shuttle. Benny said with her sharp front teeth bared.

Looking at Binny's gloomy and reddened cheeks, Kakat felt a little touching, but compared to Yulan, it was still a few notches behind.

"What's going on with that strange look in your eyes, it feels a little nasty. ”

"Haha...... How could it be," Kakat said with a wicked grin, pulling his hair, "Look, it's here!"

In front of them was a deep and green castle, and an ominous aura emanating from the surroundings was attacking the two of them. Of course, for Bini, it was just a home she didn't want to go back to.
