Chapter 256: Imperial Soul

"Whoaaaa As those dark Gu knights retreated, the young man who was being hunted down breathed a sigh of relief, but in an instant, the wounds on his body flared up, and the bandages that wrapped around him broke apart little by little, revealing a green light, and his body seemed to float into the air.

"You ...... Who is it? The young man's whole body was like a beam of green light, floating in the air, and he asked weakly towards Changle and Joffrey.

"We are people from the outside world." Joffrey said.

"That's ...... Demon God Scepter. The boy asked, revealing his green eyes, staring at the dark scepter in Joffrey's hand.

"Demon God Scepter? That's what you call it. Joffrey smiled faintly.

"I think I guessed what you guys were here for." The boy said with his green pupils in his eyes.

"In order to stimulate the power contained in the Demon God Scepter, you must use a special soul to perform soul sacrifices, and the purpose of your coming to Gu City, I'm afraid that's it." The boy then pointed to himself and smiled, "I think I should be the first soul to be valued by you." ”

"Not bad." Joffrey nodded.

"But I'm afraid you don't know that these souls used to sacrifice the Demon God Scepter will also be counterattacked, and once you can't control the power of the Demon God Scepter in the future, you will suffer from the backlash of these sacrifices, so ...... You still lack someone, help you resist the soul! The boy said.

"Yes, but the Imperial Soul must be voluntary, a powerful soul." Joffrey spoke.

"Am I just ready-made? I just need you to help me do two things. The boy said.

Joffrey's eyes flashed, if he could have such a powerful soul to sacrifice to the Dark Scepter, and at the same time be able to help himself control other souls in the Dark Scepter, then his strength would definitely be able to go to the next level!

"What two things?" Joffrey asked.

The boy held out a finger and said, "First, I want you to help me rescue my people, who are trapped in the Prison Forest. Then he continued: "Second, I want you to help me enter the City Lord's Mansion and kill all those despicable invaders!" His tone was high-pitched, as if he was venting his long-suppressed hatred.

"My name is Joffrey, so follow me from now on." Joffrey nodded, holding the Dark Scepter in his right hand aloft.

"Great Highness Joffrey, you can call me ...... Ivan. The boy roared, clasped his hands together in front of his chest and silently recited the incantation, and then he controlled his thoughts, focusing all his thoughts on his brain, turning into a green ball of light, which was sucked directly into the Dark Scepter.

Suddenly, the bead on the top of the dark scepter emitted a faint green light, and after a few flickering, the light was generous, and a dark-skinned teenager slowly walked out, but his pupils were still dark green, like a beast in the jungle.

"Take me to save your people." Joffrey smiled.

"Don't be in a hurry for the time being, I'll take you to find the monster first, only after sacrificing the soul of the powerful monster, can you enhance the power of the demon god's scepter, and then you will have the strength to compete with the entire city lord's mansion." Ivan said.

"Okay, in that case, you can lead the way." Joffrey spoke.

Ivan nodded and took the lead in walking forward, Joffrey and Chang Le followed closely behind, Chang Le put his hands behind his head and said with a smile: "It's okay now, there is finally a tour guide, and this guy looks ...... It's not weak. ”

Joffrey smiled wryly, "It's so much better than you who will only hide behind me when you encounter things." ”

"I'm not hiding, I'm braking quietly, do you understand! I'm here to support you! Chang Le said cheekily.

The two of them came to the outer city of Gu City under the leadership of Ivan, fortunately, the outer city of Gu City was not strictly investigated, and the place of martial law was only the inner city of Gu City, although Chang Le and Joffrey did not look like locals, but after secretly stuffing the benefit fee, they also entered the city smoothly.

As for Ivan, no one else could see him.

At night, at the gate of the outer city of Gu City, the lights were brilliant, and rows of red and yellow lanterns were lined up at a time, surrounding the entire outer city, and under the leadership of Ivan, Chang Le and Joffrey walked towards the inn in the outer city.

"Knock knock."

Changle knocked on the door of the inn.

"Who?" There was a slow sound of footsteps in the inn, the door creaked open, and an old man dressed in coarse linen and carrying a dim oil lamp came out of it.

"That's right, the two of us want to stay here for a while, are there any rooms available?" Chang Le said with a smile.

The old man carried the oil lamp, squinted his eyes, looked the two men in front of him up and down, and after a while, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, anyway, no one has come to live in my inn for a long time, so you can come in." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Chang Le said with a smile and walked into the inn first, but when he stepped into the inn, he couldn't help frowning, and a damp and moldy smell came to his nose.

"Oh my God." Joffrey walked in and immediately slapped his nose with his hand, frowning.

It seems that this remote inn has really not been inhabited for a long time.

The population of Gu City is not large, and most of them are concentrated in the inner city and the outer circle of the inner city, so the most marginal place in the outer city is relatively sparse.

"Forget it, it's getting late, we'll meet here." After Chang Le finished speaking, he yawned, he was already very tired, but he didn't want to run out to find the inn now, so he went straight upstairs.

Joffrey frowned, but resisted the foul smell and followed.

The stairs of the inn are very dilapidated, and there will be a creaking sound when stepping on it, it feels like the whole staircase will crack in the next second, Chang Le walked cautiously, and when he got upstairs, he looked around, but found that there was only one room, the room was very simple, except for the most basic bed, table and chairs, the rest of the decoration was nothing, and this room seemed to have been unoccupied for a long time, and there was a thick layer of dust on the floor.

Chang Le pinched his nose and opened the window, and with a wave of his long sleeves, a strong wind blew, finally blowing the dust on the ground clean.

"Why are there cobwebs?" Joffrey tugged at the spider web stuck to the black robe with his hand, and a small black spider fell to the floor, crawling towards the corner of the wall in a panic, and disappeared in front of the eyes of the two in the blink of an eye.

"What about spiders...... Look there! Chang Le sighed and pointed to the wall next to him.

I saw a scarlet centipede crawling on the wall, although it was not big, but seeing this centipede still made people feel a chill behind it.

Chang Le spread his hands, looking helpless, and muttered: "This kind of inn didn't go out of business, it's really unreasonable......
