Familiar friends turned into monsters, Nie Kong's head was blank for a while, and the whole person was immersed in indescribable grief, and he couldn't understand it at all if he didn't touch it with his own eyes.

But after a moment, his gaze became determined.

"I don't believe it...... I don't believe I can't save you! ”

"What's the use of the Templar if the Templar can't save even a halfworm?!"

Nie Kong stared at his eyes and stretched out a hand, just about to give Zhu Xiaowu the ability of the Holy Guard, but he hesitated, feeling that it was a bit reckless to do so.

System Prompt: The target is in a half-worm state, please operate with caution!

Nie Kong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked the system. When he saw the next hint from the system, he immediately understood that the Templar seemed to have a very formal way of dealing with half-worms.

System Prompt: The soul and body of the target awakened are in a highly insect state, if you want to recruit them as a holy guard, please strictly follow the steps below!

System Tip: First, control the target's actions and blindfold them to prevent them from struggling or self-destructing. If the target is able to control itself and is subjectively willing to become a guardian, the pre-action can be skipped.

After starting, perform a soul reading spell on the target, use the source power to purify its insect mind through observation, and cast soul protection on its origin soul. Then use the source power to purify their body until they get a system prompt, and finally recruit the Holy Guard.

System Prompt: After the Awakened Transform into a Guardian, they will not be able to get random Guardian rewards, but their Soul Power, Negative Resistance, and Physical Fitness after Worm Transformation will be retained and continue to grow, so please choose carefully!

Nie Kong carefully read the system prompt, and after thinking about it, he tried to communicate with Zhu Xiaowu, and from his simple body movements, he could directly skip the former operation.

"Then ready, I'm going to go."

Nie Kong took a deep breath and quickly threw out two arrows, and the two monitors in the distance on the street exploded, and one of his hands condensed a faint fluorescence, stroked Zhu Xiaowu's forehead, and the soul reading technique was launched.

It wasn't the first time he had read the souls of the awakened, and every time he could clearly feel that they were different from normal people.

Nie Kong could feel that the awakened person was not an extra monster soul in his brain, but that the original thinking was suppressed, allowing the corrupted soul energy to control the main nerves, and the original soul power of the awakened person was suppressed to about 10%, and the evil desire to obey the alien insects, obey the master, kill, and bloodthirsty was amplified.

Due to the extreme compression of the power of the Origin Soul, when the Awakened sees their loved ones, even if the Origin Soul can no longer bear it, it is still difficult to control itself to resist the killing order.

At this time, different people behave differently, some awakened people can't help but kill their loved ones, and some have strong willpower, can control themselves, and even protect their relatives, Zhu Xiaowu is the latter.

The thunderous source energy shone on Zhu Xiaowu's body, and on the dark and silent long street, the golden light spread out in all directions. Zhu Xiaowu half-knelt on the ground, roaring in a rapid tone, the cuticle and carapace on the surface of his body continued to peel off, and the black viscous water bubbles burst on his body, flowing on the black armor and the ground.

"Whew-w-"

He howled in pain, his body shrunk a lot, and he fell to the ground to endure the pain, and the black heavy armor no longer seemed to fit.

Nie Kong pressed one hand on Zhu Xiaowu's forehead, and the source power continued to pour into his body, and he could feel the drastic changes taking place in Zhu Xiaowu's body.

System Prompt: After the purification of the target soul and the insect substance in the body, you can start recruiting the Holy Guard!

With a 'bang', a golden light poured into his body.

System Hint: You've recruited a second Guardian!

A deep golden light pierced Zhu Xiaowu's forehead, shining on the surface of his whole body, and finally disappeared into his body. The filth on his body instantly burned to ashes, revealing a clean, sturdy body.

I don't know what the reason is, his body shape is completely different from before, he has become a sturdy young man with a height of nearly two meters, and Nie Kong can only identify him from his face.

Due to the weakness of his soul power, he was paralyzed on the ground very sluggishly at the moment.

Qi Yue should have a means of monitoring the awakened, Nie Kong didn't dare to continue to delay, quickly carried Zhu Xiaowu behind him, ran into the ruins on the left, and disappeared in a moment.

Not long after he left, a bright red light flew from a distance, hovering over the long street.

In the fierce demon red energy, Qi Yue glanced around, and fell to the ground, his eyes condensed on the puddle of ashes in the middle of the road, his brows were deeply locked, and he was silent for a long time.

A report came from his headset: "Report, according to the display before the surveillance was destroyed, Nie Kong appeared here just now, and the 172nd Awakened did not attack him, they seem to be ...... There seems to be simple communication. ”

"Send me the video." Qi Yue half-squatted down, picked up a handful of ashes and rubbed it on his fingertips to observe, and paused and said, "The Night Wing team is dispatched to reconnoiter with my coordinates as the center point. In addition, send someone to put away the things here and hand them over to the laboratory for testing. ”

"Yes!"

Qi Yue's own reconnaissance ability was very weak, he tried to follow the traces, but soon there were no clues, he checked the surveillance footage sent and dialed another channel.

"One of my awakened people lost contact, it should be Nie Kong's friend, Nie Kong was present at the time, it was not killed, just now I could feel the control over him getting weaker and weaker, as if ......"

Huo Sitong woke up in the middle of the night and responded in a daze: "What do you think...... Did he turn the Awakened back into a human? ”

In the dim moonlight, Qi Yue was suspended in mid-air and stared into the distance, and asked rhetorically, "What kind of Templar did you say he was before, and this belongs to the Templar's ability?" ”

Huo Sitong pondered for a moment and said, "The Holy Hall has this ability...... It's not surprising, it really should be, and if he doesn't, no one else can have. ”

Qi Yue continued to observe the movements in the surrounding area: "Then how strong is his ability?" Will it turn my entire team of Awoken people back to their original form? ”

"My community said that the Templar is very restrained from insects, Nie Kong should not have grown up yet, and he is not familiar with the Templar's abilities, and I estimate that he has not been able to restore the entire team to a human at the moment." Huo Sitong continued: "He should be injured now, right? Looks like you're going to have to find him out as soon as possible. You know, I'll have to report on him, the Community is very interested in him, and when it comes here, a low-level sanctuary won't be your cup of tea. ”

Qi Yue didn't reply, he stared intently in the direction of the north of the city, opened another communication, and said sternly: "The search has been increased by five times, give me to look for it day and night, within one day, I must find Erte's hidden stronghold!" ”

"Five-fold? Belch...... Roger that! ”

……

The secret service launched a search all night, and at this time, Nie Kong had already contacted Brother Dog, and the ground personnel examined Zhu Xiaowu's body, and after confirming that there was no tracking equipment, the two returned to the underground stronghold.

In the simple basement, Zhu Xiaowu was lying on the bed, Nie Kong and Brother Dog were guarding beside him, the soul and nature magicians had just done healing spells, and his body was recovering well.

Zhu Xiaowu's expression was much soothed than before, and he stroked the quilt covering his body, like a lover he hadn't seen for many years, and looked at Nie Kong with a smile.

The quilt and the bed didn't fit well, and he could only lie with his legs bent, as if just lying on the bed could make him feel extremely comfortable.

"Brother, my family ......"

Nie Kong sat next to him and said with a smile: "It's time to withdraw, I have a few of my friends to say hello, I will protect them, don't worry." ”

As he spoke, he patted Zhu Xiaowu's chest like a watermelon, and his mouth was full of slurp.

Brother Dog sighed on the side: "This figure is old and stylish, and it was a top coach level in the fitness industry before, and even I have an urge to rely on it." ”

"That's not it, and it's not the kind of muscle ...... that only has flowers" Nie Kongle said: "In the future, you will change your name to Zhu Dawu, in the past, being a guard was like serving tea and pouring water, but now that you stand next to Stallone, people will think that he is your little brother." ”

Zhu Xiaowu shook his arms, which were stronger than ordinary people's legs, and muttered with a strange face: "I'm ...... Is it really a recovery? ”

Nie Kong said: "Don't worry, it's very reliable, there will be no side effects." ”

"That's good......" Zhu Xiaowu muttered, burying his head in counting his abdominal muscles, there were neat eight pieces, there was some excitement in his eyes, any man suddenly had such a figure, he would be surprised.

He hadn't rested much in the past two days, and Nie Kong had a brief chat with him, and then left the room with the old dog.
