Chapter 116: Ghost Face

I'm saddened by the death of Master Emmelica, who is one of the few NPCs I have a good opinion of.

As he gently lowered the body of the martial master, he casually reached through the cracks in the leaves of his torn armor...... Well, sure enough, the smooth touch on my fingers made me understand that my guess was correct.

After a moment's contemplation, the mind connected with the object, detected the situation, and a command was conveyed to the past, and when the hand was withdrawn, it clenched a fist-sized mass of psionic star.

"Hero Skin!" This psionic skin grants the wearer a Lucky bonus on Defense, Attack, and all Immunity checks.

Found a treasure! The so-called lucky bonus here didn't get me 10 million tickets, but it was very useful. In terms of defense, it does not mean that it will make my defense stronger, but it will interfere with the accuracy of the enemy's attack on me; On the contrary, the Attack Check will increase my accuracy when attacking enemies; As for all exemptions, it means that there is a greater chance that my attack magic will be inexplicably invalid! Or make it easier for me to resist the attack of disease toxins, and so on.

Another command thought caused the hero's spirit skin to unfold and cover my body, seeping under my armor and clothing. I stretched out my palm and watched as a layer of colorless, odorless, translucent, viscous semi-solid flowed like a liquid on my skin, stretching from the bare part of my arm to the tip of my fingertips, and the fine lines on my hand were clearly visible under the psionic skin. I touched my face again, well, even my face was tightly covered, but I could still see, hear, and breathe as usual, it was like a second skin for me.

However, although it is difficult for others to see wearing psionic skin, it is also troublesome to be discovered by someone with a heart. Thinking so, I saw the layer of star in my hand roll back and fade away, until it disappeared under the armor and clothing. Hey! It turns out that psionic skin can also reveal different parts of the body as needed. That's right, if it weren't for the fact that I was impressed by this psionic item and wanted to reach out and try it on a whim, I wouldn't know that the martial arts chief was wearing this heroic spirit skin.

One moment he was still lamenting the death of the martial arts chief, and the next moment he was plundering the relics on his body...... I suddenly felt a little ashamed. Is my sadness so cheap and hypocritical?

"Well, he doesn't need it anymore anyway, and if I don't take it, it will only end up in the hands of the first family. Rather than that, I'm sure Chief Emmelika would be more than happy for me to receive his relics. "I convinced myself. There is no conflict between sadness and taking away relics, well, I haven't seen that Amerika's martial arts chief has made a will, and there will probably be no legal heirs such as blood relatives and in-laws after tonight...... Well, our dark elves have not formulated an inheritance law, so the relics of the deceased are also ownerless, and seeing the valuable ownerless treasures without reaching out is a waste of tyrannical heavenly things that no player will allow!

Placing the body of the martial arts master on the ground, picking up his severed arms, placing them on both sides of him, and tidying up his remains, it can be regarded as a little bit of his last effort. Ah~ There is also a small crystal shield on the left broken arm, which does not look like an ordinary product, so it is naturally necessary to take it off and put it away. It's a pity that the weapons and armor of the martial arts chief are damaged, but the ring on his hand and the boots on his feet seem to be good things, and they are still intact! Presumably, the martial arts chief doesn't mind if I take these gadgets.

A short sword was pulled out from under the armpit of the martial arts chief, which was left by Sabal in the previous battle. It was a blade with a dark red blood-stained pattern, and it seemed to be a magic weapon as well. I actually stuck this thing in my body and beat it

I remember that there was a fat sheep next to him, it was Sabal, the first family martial arts chief whose head was cut off by me, and first unceremoniously picked up the scimitar that was thrown next to his corpse, which was the culprit that destroyed the crystal sword, armor and my Mithril shirt of the martial arts chief of America, and naturally had to use it as compensation!

I didn't care about reaching out and checking the loot on the First Family's martial arts master.

There was a small cloud of black smoke coming out of the corpse, and there were two black spots like its eyes, and the black smoke drifted to my outstretched right arm as if it had been blown by the wind.

What is it!

I jumped to my feet and shook my arms vigorously, trying to shake off the inexplicable thing, but I could feel a new consciousness trying to enter my body.

…… This game should be a Western fantasy class, not an Eastern fantasy class, right? How can there even be such a setting as "snatching away"!

The Mind Samurai's will resistance is a weakness, but my own perception attribute is high enough to barely make up for this weakness. Just as I was about to use my will to drive this mass of consciousness out, I heard a telepathy from this thing: it promised to be of great benefit to me.

“…… You're not Sabal's ghost? As soon as the words came out, I knew that I was stupid, I had never heard that ghosts would have the ability to "snatch away", unless it was the legendary level of the "Demon Soul Pot" spell, but the "Demon Soul Pot" would not make the soul have telepathic ability, and Sabal Ming was not a spell-casting profession.

Well, let's see what's in it. I no longer resisted, and the black smoke immediately wrapped around my right arm, and a thin voice appeared in my mind: "Master, please be cautious in using healing spells in the future, the positive energy of healing spells may cause harm to me." ”

"I don't seem to have anything to do with positive energy when I use the 'Body Conditioning' ability, so it should be fine." I casually replied, "Oh, no! Aren't you guaranteed to do me great good? What are the benefits? ”

Listening to it in detail, I realized that this thing is a symbiote called "Ghost Face", similar to the inferior undead soul of a ghost, because the "Ghost Face" will automatically be affected by the spell that the host casts on itself, and it is an undead creature, and the positive energy of medical spells that have a healing effect on normal creatures will hurt it, but the negative energy that will harm normal creatures will have a healing effect on it, so it will remind me at the beginning. But I don't actually cast spells, and it's a waste of worry that showing the "Body Conditioning" ability, taking a healing potion, or someone else casting a healing spell on me doesn't affect it.

As for the benefits it brings me.

One is that it can materialize into a grimace anywhere on my body, even overshadowing my original face without affecting my vision. The grimace appears to be quite real, flesh and blood, but in fact it is still in virtual form. At this time, others can attack it alone, but because it is an imaginary body, an attack that crosses can hit me. Materialized grimaces can use the supernatural ability of the Horror Gaze, and anyone within 9 meters of Grimace who interacts with Grimace's eyes can be paralyzed by fear for a short period of time. However, this ability has a low chance of working on creatures with high willpower, and can only be used to bully weak creatures with low willpower and non-caster classes.

Another benefit is that Ghost Face's psychic shield special ability makes me immune to all psychic spells and effects. In fact, Ghost Face shared his psychic immunity as an undead with me.

…… No wonder in the previous battle, Sabal was not afraid of psychic blasting, and here's why!

It seemed so useful that I almost felt the urge to ask about the whereabouts of Oniface's kindred, so that I could kill them all. Damn, if everyone has a ghost face on their body, then my psychic attack will not be useless! However, upon inquiry, I learned that the ghost face is not a social creature, and the number is extremely rare, so I have to give up.

While asking about the "ghost face" did not affect my movements, there was no need to be interceding with Sabal, and after stripping him naked with three strokes and five divisions, I hit the idea on the fourth family's most powerful psychic sorcerer, Akdina.

I crouched down next to the beautiful woman's corpse and reached through the collar of my robe......

"Hey...... Yes, this slippery feel ......"

"Tsk!" I felt for a fist-sized mass of astral mass. "Psionic Skin" grants the wearer 7 additional Psionic Points per day and 18 Psionic Resistance. It doesn't seem to be as useful as the "Hero Spirit Skin" obtained from the Emmelica Martial Arts Chief, but it's also a rare top-quality product, so wear it together.

Psionic skins, also known as "star shields", can be worn up to three layers at the same time, but only the outermost layer takes effect, and the inner layers cannot show their abilities, but they can switch between the inner and outer spirit cortex at any time with mental commands.

Akdina is a woman after all, and she used to have some affection, so it was difficult to strip her naked, and this white robe depicting an exaggerated eye-like pattern would not move her, and I would not wear a robe anyway. Other bits and pieces just laughed in. Well, there's actually a small fanny pack, and I remember that telemagicians don't need materials to show their abilities, so naturally they don't need to have a bag of spellcasting materials like mages. When I opened it, there was only a folded handkerchief inside, except for some psionic stone crystals. I couldn't figure out what it was for a while, so I hung this small waist bag on my body.

What's the next gentleman or lady who is the most valuable to loot for me? I looked around, and my eyes stopped at the shattered corpse in the corner—poor Elenita Starzero.

Is it my delusion, though? Why do you feel like it's getting hotter? The ground seemed to be steaming hot, and the surrounding scenery seemed to be distorted......

Wrong! I can't care less about picking up the loot and rushing out of the temple gate!

A scorching wave of fire rushed in front of me, and in the blink of an eye I was caught in the fire!
