Chapter 12: The Harvest

In the white light, even in the soul state, Ye Qi still had to block his eyes with his arms.

When Ye Qi put his arm down, the appearance of something in front of him made his eyes widen. I saw a strange wolf with a wolf body and a snake tail, about two meters high, sitting in front of him, looking at him with a smile. Don't ask Ye Qi what he thinks this strange wolf will smile again, because he doesn't understand either, but when he saw this strange wolf staring at him, a thought that the other party was smiling appeared in his heart.

Of course, that's not the point, the point is the form of this strange wolf! Although it had been magnified countless times, and it had changed from a dead thing to a living thing, Ye Qi was still sure that the other party was definitely exactly the same as the two magic statues he carried in his pocket.

Why is it so similar? Could it be......

From the appearance of the two, Ye Qi thought of something in an instant, and at the same time, a bad premonition came to his mind.

"Boy, you're such a nuisance! It took me so much effort to sign a contract with you! However, I didn't expect someone to sign a soul contract with you before me... Not... No, I watched your kid's every move, and if those guys did it, I should have noticed it as soon as possible! Are you the heir of a guy or the reincarnation of a guy yourself? However, I haven't heard of any unlucky people falling...... Strange, strange......"

The strange wolf crawled to the ground of the bluestone slab without any image, chattering like an old man, and glanced at Ye Qi standing in front of it from time to time.

"You just did that?"

Listening to the strange wolf in front of him, Ye Qi, who had already guessed some of the ins and outs, only felt a fire burning in his chest, and asked with wide eyes.

"Don't say it so ugly, we're partners who have signed a sharing contract now! Help each other and love each other! The strange wolf crawled half-dead on the bluestone slab, glanced at the indignant Ye Qi, and yawned.

"In order for me to help you find a statue like yours, you made such a big show just now and tricked me into signing that contract?" It's okay not to mention the contract, as soon as the contract is mentioned, Ye Qi thought of the scene when he almost lost his soul before, and suddenly the anger that was burning in his chest rushed straight to the top of his head, and roared angrily at the strange wolf.

The image of the strange wolf is consistent with the magic statue, plus the appearance of the second magic statue with the same appearance, and a few articles about finding items on the contract just now, Ye Qi quickly sorted out the context in it, and restored the original appearance of the matter - the strange wolf in front of him is likely to be sealed in the magic statue, and only by gathering all the magic statues can he get out of trouble. And with the magic statue, he is naturally regarded as "cheap labor!" "As for the contract that has just been signed, of course it is" labor contract! And the previous coercion that almost made him lose his soul is also likely to be a "scam" to get him to sign the contract smoothly! ”

Although Ye Qi doesn't think he is a very smart character, he must be a little annoyed and angry when he is deceived one after another. Coupled with the contract he had just signed, Ye Qi was very expectant about the amount of power he was about to obtain. And now after seeing the strange wolf who signed a contract with him, Ye Qi's original heart full of expectations was like being poured a basin of cold water - can you expect a sealed strange wolf to give you some powerful abilities? Even if the predecessor of this strange wolf was some powerful demons and gods, after being sealed, it was just an empty shelf!

Therefore, the anger that Ye Qi had been holding back at the moment exploded.

"Not a lie! It's a deal! Boy, don't you believe in the principle of equivalent exchange? You help me find the remaining statues, and I'll give you the amount of strength you need, and we'll take what we need!" Don't you often say that trading itself is a process of taking what you need and benefiting each other. As long as both parties are satisfied, the deal is closed! So, we're the deal! And not a lie! The strange wolf immediately corrected.

"The problem is that I'm not happy right now! It's not a deal that's built on a lie, it's a deception! Ye Qi gritted his teeth and looked at the strange wolf: "And according to your current situation, I'm afraid it's just to deceive me, a 'rookie'!" As for giving me the corresponding amount of strength...... Hmph......"

Ye Qi's words were not finished, but from the disdain in his tone and the cold snort at the end, he could see his distrust of the strange wolf. Because according to Ye Qi's knowledge, there is no appearance of a wolf body and a snake tail among the gods or demons, so it can be inferred that even if the strange wolf in front of him is a god or a demon, it is also relatively weak and not famous.

"Deception? I don't have that intention! Although I am weak now, it is more than enough to deal with the little bats outside! Alright, let's fulfill the first clause of the contract now! Otherwise, if you wait here, even if time passes very slowly, your body outside will still die! I don't want to wait thousands of years for something like this! ”

Ignoring Ye Qi's disdain, the strange wolf glanced up at Ye Qi again, and then without waiting for Ye Qi to speak, the nine pillars of fire in the entire bluestone hall burst out of the sky with flames, and when Ye Qi came back to his senses, he found that he had returned to his body.

And at this moment, he was still held in the air by the middle-aged vampire with one hand.

"Boy, I now fulfill the first article of the contract!"

The voice of the strange wolf sounded in his mind, and then Ye Qi suddenly found that he had changed a special state again, which was different from the soul state just now and the usual state. This particular state is akin to intervening in between, where the soul is still in the body, but the visual perspective is a third person, like watching a movie.

Ye Qi saw that he had been choked by the neck with half-squinted eyes, and raised his right hand, which was still intact, and put it on the hand that the vampire had been holding his neck - this reaction was like Ye Qi was dying after doing the most difficult thing again. The middle-aged vampire burst into laughter again.

But soon, the wild laughter turned into a miserable howl, and I saw that the vampire who was originally crazy but extraordinary, with the image of a middle-aged handsome man, was aging at a speed visible to the naked eye. Or rather, it would be more appropriate to dry up. On the contrary, the wounds on his body caused by the battle are rapidly recovering, and even the left arm with broken bones has returned to normal in a burst of "quack" sounds.

Under the influence of one another, the originally powerful middle-aged vampire became unusually pale and weak, and even the voice of the miserable howl became deeper and deeper after the worst time. By the time the howls had died down, the middle-aged vampire's taller body had become the size of a five- or six-year-old child.

From the time the strange wolf said that he wanted to fulfill the first agreement to the middle-aged vampire being sucked dry, the time was more than ten seconds, and Ye Qi, who had been in the state of "watching a movie", was full of surprise and didn't react at all. It wasn't until the prompt of the system sounded in his mind that Ye Qi reacted.
