Chapter 22: The Source
Zhang Xiaoman didn't say anything more, his face was full of waves.
Stretching out his hand, Zhang Xiaoman concocted the same method as he had done the previous times, and used the seven-pointed star to absorb the corpse demons on the ground.
Immediately, the pleasant sound of the system echoed in his mind.
"Ding, absorb the essence of the corpse demon, and increase your points by 5 points."
"Huh? This time, the points were only 5 points......"
Zhang Xiaoman was slightly surprised, it seems that even if it is a different individual of the same kind, the points that can be absorbed are not the same.
This corpse, which is obviously one size smaller, will have 2 points less than the previous one.
Seeing the monster corpse being "purified" by Zhang Xiaoman again, Brother Hao Han was no longer as unbelievable as when he first saw it, but this time his face was more excited and expectant.
"Xiao, Xiaoman, these skills of yours, I, can I learn them?"
Brother Hao Han asked with some apprehension.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at him, but shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm afraid not, I just sensed it, you don't have the talent to control dark energy." ”
"That's right...... Is that the one you just used dark energy? ”
Zhang Xiaoman nodded.
"That's right, but to be honest, I haven't found a second person with a gift for dark energy in a long time other than myself......"
Brother Hao nodded in disappointment when he heard this, but before he could be depressed, he heard Zhang Xiaoman say again.
"But don't worry, I'm currently working on a special technique that can stimulate the ability of inspiration hidden in the human body, so that ordinary people can also have dark energy talents."
"Really!?"
Brother Hao was overjoyed.
Zhang Xiaoman smiled.
"Don't worry, since you already know all this, I naturally won't let you face it empty-handed. When I finish that technique, I'll help you with your enlightenment. ”
He paused, then added:
"By the way, try not to tell anyone else, including your loved ones, about this. After all, the less they know under the rules of mind-identity, the safer it is for them. ”
Brother Hao Han nodded hurriedly when he heard this.
Zhang Xiaoman turned around with an imperceptible smile on his face.
The best way to get a person to willingly keep a secret is to pull him into your side.
Of course, he didn't do it entirely for reasons of secrecy.
More of it, it was the huge plan that gradually became clear in his mind.
"Xiaoman, shall we go back now? There shouldn't be any monsters here, right? Brother Hao Han asked.
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head.
"Don't worry, the source of evil should be on the second floor of the building, I need to go over and take a look."
His so-called source of evil naturally refers to the spatial node, you must know that that thing is worth dozens of points.
Brother Hao Han was stunned for a moment, and said with some fear: "This, will it be dangerous?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at him and said, "It's okay, I'll just go alone, you still have to go to work tomorrow, go home early." ”
Brother Hao Han bowed his head and was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth fiercely and said:
"Xiaoman, let me go with you! I can't do much yet, but ...... But the volume of my mobile phone is loud, isn't it?,It's good to put BGM on you.。 And, and I'm going to have to face these things in the future, so now is the time to work out! Coupled with the presence of a master like you, I have to take advantage of the opportunity! ”
When Zhang Xiaoman heard him say that he was a master, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, and secretly said that his flickering this time was quite successful.
But he thought about it, what Brother Hao Han said seemed to make sense, no matter what, one more person would have one more pair of eyes, and if it was really dangerous, it would also improve the probability of finding a monster.
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, motioned for Brother Hao Han to follow, and took out two water guns from his pocket, and then walked towards the second floor with light steps.
Brother Hao Han hurriedly followed behind him, and looked behind him cautiously from time to time.
The two made their way to the second floor, where the security door had been damaged, and it looked like it had been knocked down by a monster.
It was pitch black inside the door, and nothing could be seen.
Brother Hao Han hurriedly turned on the lighting of his mobile phone and took on the task of providing a field of vision.
Zhang Xiaoman stood at the door and listened quietly for a while, but didn't notice any movement, so he took the lead and walked in.
After a few steps into the door, the two of them gradually smelled a foul smell, as if something was rotting inside, which made people sick to their stomachs.
Zhang Xiaoman endured the discomfort and cheered up the spirit.
This smell is the same as what I just smelled on the corpse demon, and it seems that this is indeed the corpse demon's lair.
The structure of the office building is a hollow shape, and after the two of them go out through the security door in the middle, they walk around the corridor, but no new monsters are found.
Of course, Zhang Xiaoman's main target here was the spatial node, but what disappointed him was that he didn't find any trace of the spatial node here, and that mysterious purple light didn't appear here.
"It seems that not all monsters come out of the spatial nodes, and there may be other ways...... Or maybe the two corpses came from somewhere else? Aren't the space nodes they use when they come here? ”
Zhang Xiaoman guessed about the situation in front of him, his eyes swept ahead, but he saw a little movement in a corner.
"There's something over there, let's go over and take a look, pay attention to the tap......"
He hurriedly whispered to the good man brother beside him.
Brother Hao Han nodded and walked behind Zhang Xiaoman.
The two slowly approached, and Zhang Xiaoman only felt that the smell seemed to be heavier, and it seemed that it should have come from here.
This is an open office, it is pitch black, and after the flashlight sweeps through, Zhang Xiaoman finds a black figure in a corner facing the door.
"What's that?"
Brother Hao asked softly, and the light of the flashlight stayed on the black shadow.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at it and said uncertainly: "It should be the corpse of a certain animal, but it is so rotten that I can't tell what kind of animal it is." ”
Brother Hao Han took two steps forward, intending to get closer and take a closer look, but at this moment, a white figure came out from under the black hair of the animal corpse and let out a roar in the direction of Brother Hao Han.
"Stand back! It's a corpse! ”
Zhang Xiaoman let out a low snort, and then raised his gun and fired.
"Horn~"
A slight gunshot rang out, and the holy water bullet hit the corpse demon accurately.
As the droplets of water exploded, the holy water inside immediately sprinkled on its body, and a few wisps of black smoke came out, and the wound began to spread instantly.
This corpse demon was very small, almost the size of two palms of an adult, and now it was incapacitated immediately after being hit by this holy water bomb, and I saw it fall to the ground twisting and rolling, and it lost its movement in a few clicks.
