Chapter 279, the first puppet (ask for a monthly ticket, recommend a ticket, ask for a reward)
(It's a new month!) Ask for a monthly pass, a recommended ticket, and ask for a reward! The old rule, if you have a monthly pass, you will add more! )
The light in the cave is not very good, and the light source shines overhead, making people's faces look a little unnaturally shadowed.
Dardanelle had already taken off his helmet, and he looked like a man close to middle age, with the skin on his face turning blue-gray due to malnutrition, emaciated cheeks, and gray hair. His eyes widened, his chin opened slightly, and he looked at Li De opposite him against the wall with a surprised expression.
"What are you talking about? Ha ha! Dardanelle smiled unnaturally, the clothes behind him already soaked in cold sweat.
"What? Is that wrong? Li De glanced at Dardanelle very provocatively, and the deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through the soul shocked Dardanelle.
"Exposed?" Dardanelle thought, but he didn't have any results, and he wouldn't have any results, because Li De only observed Dardanelle's strangeness through soul reading.
Just after Dardanelle met Li De and the others, and brought them into the cave, although he seemed to be impeccable, Dardanelle had a suppressed impulse in his heart.
He was waiting for his chance, like a crocodile disguised as a floating piece of rotten log, waiting for the moment when its prey let its guard down.
"Let's stretch our stomachs for a day, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as excreting radioisotopes from the body, right? Waiting for us to be soft is your purpose. Li De looked at Dardanelle with sharp eyes, and said word by word: "Just like you do to other companions!" ”
"You know what!?" Dardanelle roared in a low voice, "Those people are going to die sooner or later, you might as well give me a chance to survive!" I'm the noblest and most righteous of Ados, and one day I'll kill that countess and help them, and avenge you!" ”
As he spoke, Dardanelle wanted to pounce on Lide.
By this time everyone else was exhausted, and after a night of fighting and a day of diarrhea, everyone was asleep.
Except for two people. One is Li De. And then there's Leona.
Leona's cold eyes appeared in the corner, her hair had turned silver, the ability of the Ice Girl burst out, and Dardanelle's movements were much slower.
"Don't freeze to death!" Li De hurriedly ordered.
Dardanelle's strength also has a sixth-order Skywalker, and originally, he was still full of confidence in dealing with Li De and a few of them, and then using some means. But Leona's move surprised him.
Ice and Snow Girl, that has the ability to freeze the soul of a seventh-order Skywalker. Even if the current Liona is not in the best state, but with Li De's soul impact. It's more than enough to deal with Dardanelles.
Dardanelle only felt his brain dizzy for a while, and then his whole body was frozen.
Not only the body, but even the mind was frozen.
[Soul Puppet Mark]! Li De used soul magic to take Dardanelles as his soul puppet.
This is also the Goth's request, before Li De reaches the fifth-order Skywalker, he needs to improve his soul warlock cultivation as quickly as possible, and use soul magic more in order to have greater achievements in the future.
This is also the first time that Li De has used the [Soul Puppet Seal]. Unlike normal soul sigils, soul golem sigils require more condensed soul energy. After condensing into a seal, the fluctuations and grasp of the other party's soul also need to be clearer.
However, with Leona's help, Dardanelle's soul is now in a semi-frozen state, very inactive. It is convenient for Li De's observation.
Li De was distracted, condensing the soul puppet imprint while using his soul to read and feel the soul structure of Dardanelle, looking for a suitable place for the imprint.
The soul of any living being is nothing. There is no shape, which is also the reason why the soul puppet mark is difficult to grasp, once the mark is placed in the wrong place on the soul. It is very likely that you will not be able to control the other party, but will detonate the soul energy of the other party, causing great damage to both parties.
"Don't hesitate, remember the main points I told you, and start when you see it!" Goth was reminding Li De, and he was also nervously watching.
A golden light flashed on Li De's head, gradually condensing into the shape of a seal.
Dardanelle looked at the incredible scene in front of him, his pupils shrunk into the eye of a needle, and the fear and strangeness he felt made his face distort, but under the suppression of the Ice and Snow Girl, he was powerless to resist.
Dardanelle felt only a bang in his head, and his body kept shaking.
……
At the same time, the Countess of Winchester's residence.
"There's been no news from them for a day, are you a piece of waste?" Miledi said angrily to the few officers around him.
At their feet, there were already two bodies lying on the ground, the leaders of the teams that had gone out to search.
"I'm sorry Madame Milady, but those humans are very cunning. But we're sure he's not out of the woods yet! We're going to step up our search. ”
"You'd better make sure they don't run away, or you won't have to stay in the army. Isn't there going to be a war this time, I think the striker will definitely be very suitable for you. ”
When the officers heard this, their legs went limp, and they immediately knelt down and said, "Lady Miledi, we promise to take those humans back." ”
"Stand down! It makes me annoyed when I see it! Miledi said softly with his hand on his forehead.
The running of these humans was just an episode for him, but he didn't want his secret to be exposed. Of course, now this secret is not only his own, but also the secret shared by many nobles and high-ranking officials on the planet Ados, so she is not worried about how much wind and waves these humans can give.
The night was getting deeper.
Li De also completed the soul puppet imprint on Dardanelles.
The Soul Loss Mark is already considered an intermediate soul technique, and it is the limit of what Li De, who is now a mid-polar soul warlock, can be used. This was the Gothic test for him, and it was the first time he had performed it, and it had taken a lot of his attention to control zhì.
Just one mark had already exhausted his energy, and he felt drowsy.
Dardanelle huddled in the corner, his head clasped tightly in his hands, muttering to himself, his twisted body trembling. His eyes widened, and there was no look in his eyes, but there was a touch of gold.
Leona had already fallen asleep, and there seemed to be a hint of relief on her immature, cold face.
Li De did not dare to rest, he activated the soul technique, and released several souls from the soul stone to devour. This method is not only a method of cultivating soul energy, but also supplements the consumption when casting the soul puppet mark just now.
After a while, Dardanelle also regained his composure, and Li De also recovered from fatigue.
"That's it! Now tell me your true story! Li De said softly.
Dardanelle swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he felt that Li De in front of him suddenly became extremely tall and majestic, and there was only obedience in front of him, and he could not lie at all.
"Two years ago, I also took part in a goddamn mercenary mission to find a beast in this forest that was about to become extinct. I didn't care, so I formed a team with a few friends and came to this forest at night. ……”
Dardanelle spoke calmly, but the injustice in his eyes could be seen in his heart. When he recounted the death of his companion and the first time he had killed his own companion because of a hiding place, Dardanelle couldn't help but cry.
In the past two years, this middle-aged man has experienced more hardships than any cruel hell. In order to survive, he has done anything that is either cruel or disgusting and undignified.
Dardanelle said that he was originally a retired non-commissioned officer and was a well-known squad leader in the mech team. I just didn't expect it to fall to such a point.
"Is there any way to bring down the countess, then?" Li De asked.
"We've tried many times, anonymously reporting and posting videos to websites or media, but nothing has happened. Those officials were even more of the woman's subordinates. I'm desperate and can only hide here! (To be continued......)
