Chapter 13: The Secret of Devouring Gods, the Art of Soul Assisting
"The three elements of black witchcraft, resentment, soul, and carrier, without enough resentment, the soul will not reside, without the soul, black witchcraft will lack the source of power, without the carrier, the soul wandering in the world will eventually return to the River Styx, this first-order middle wizard is a gift from the teacher to my lovely disciple.

"Ino, when you are promoted to a first-order dark wizard in the future, you will have to figure out the second-order dark soul you need. As he spoke, the ghost-like man slowly removed the crystal ring from his left hand, which was emitting a dark purple glow.
Wheezing, Zhu Peng, who had already dispersed and practiced qigong, took the ring at the signal of the ghost-shaped man, and then put it on his left finger.
Naturally, the crystal on the ring shattered, and the dark purple dark soul enveloped Zhu Peng's body like a thick mist, and then he sucked it up and devoured it through his mouth and nose.
The meditation method of the God-Eating School that had insisted on penance for half a year had played a role, and Zhu Peng's consciousness was overseas, and with the influx of dark purple fog, it was soon enveloped in a layer of dark purple thick protective walls. This layer of soul protection wall is self-contained, spontaneously absorbing the free energy from the outside world to supply the host's soul, like a weak meditation technique that is inefficient but never stops twenty-four hours a day.
"This is one of the secrets of the power of the dark wizards of the God-Eater School, where the lower level personally kills the higher level wizards and builds their own auxiliary soul system with his soul power as nourishment.
You killed a mid-rank Dark Wizard of the First Order, and from then on you no longer fear any soul sorcery below the mid-rank of the First Order, which is one of the most basic powers of the auxiliary soul, the Soul Armor. At the same time, the auxiliary souls will bless the host's mana, nourish your summoned spirits, reduce your spell casting consumption, and even some extremely powerful auxiliary souls will bring you special powers...... Although you have to kill people with your own hands, it's worth it to be able to get so many benefits, right?" the ghost-shaped man chuckled at him after Zhu Peng had completely devoured those dark purple soul mist.
"People kill me, I kill people, he didn't hesitate when he just made a move, do I still need to feel guilty when I defend myself and fight back? Teacher, it is impossible for this level of blasphemy to shake my mind, you should know that before you, I majored in the Taoist Pure Yang Pulse Method, and the emphasis was on the Great Dao in front, and the gods and demons were not afraid. Savoring the changes in myself, I slowly opened my eyes. At that moment, a faint purple light even appeared in Zhu Peng's originally dark eyes, and after a while, that strange light fell silent.
"Hahaha, what an unlovable disciple, so I don't like religious maniacs. Shaking his head with a smile, the ghost-shaped man walked towards the spiral staircase step by step, leaving Zhu Peng alone, leaving him alone in the dark.

As soon as Zhu Peng came up from the underground stone chamber, he was handed a "bill" by the ghost-shaped man, and the moment he saw the amount on it, he almost had a painful feeling that it was not as good as being directly killed by the bald mage below.
"Teacher, I remember that my salary is only thirty gold coins a month, and I can't afford much of it. ”
"As my disciple, I can give you the spell book for free, and even below just now, that slave and the small soul crystal that binds his soul, I can use it as the inheritance of the God Eater without charging you...... But you kid can't let me provide you with other cultivation materials for free, right?" put a piece of sweet and sour garlic brought by Miss Momotani in his mouth, and the thin old man with white hair and black robe chewed it with a click, pursed his lips, and looked full of taste and enjoyment.
After a while, he continued: "The list has been given to you, and you can buy the things on it or not." But if you look at the other pages, they are all good things that can't be bought elsewhere, but they just open taverns and gambling shops, and the money is too little, and I'm going to resell some low-level magic equipment to subsidize my family. ”
When the ghost-shaped man was chewing sweet and sour garlic, and Zhu Peng was flipping through the list page by page, the door of the secret room was opened again, and the beautiful female elf wearing a decent suit like a professional white-collar worker stepped in, looking at the teacher who was eating snacks and Zhu Peng, who was covered in dust and looked embarrassed, she frowned slightly.
"Teacher, the disciple is here. ”
"Why are you doing this, such an embarrassed look. ”
“...... I just accompanied the teacher to do a combat power evaluation experiment, and that experiment was more tricky. ”
"Papapa, okay, I'm not calling you over for small talk. Momoya, give them two the information you have compiled during this time. After hearing the old man's command, the charming Dongying woman handed two thick folders to Zhu Peng and Yiwen respectively.
Zhu Peng opened it and took a look, it was different from the list of accounts such as soul crystals or magic weapons just now, but more than a dozen photos of the murder scene, as well as dozens of pages of assessment reports and curve comparison charts of the crime rate in various regions in recent times, and it can be seen from the curve chart that the crime rate in the third district has almost risen in a straight line recently.
"The Wizard City Council has been dissatisfied with the chaotic management of the Third District for a long time, in the third district where people and witches are mixed, not only civilians, but even wizard apprentices have nearly 100 deaths and injuries every month, and some illegal dark forces are too rampant in the third district. ”
"Therefore, this time, the Wizard City Council has sent power and resources to divide the entire third district into: S, A, B, C, D, E, and F, and they hope that each district will form its own witcher guild to maintain the security of its area, at least not let the abyss or purgatory really stick its claws in. So...... I contracted Area F, and the security situation in this area in the future is directly related to the salary income of the two of you. ”
"Of course, such a large area can't be managed by just the two of you, and in the future, when the guild becomes famous, it will recruit more and more powerful demon hunters and even establish branches. But until then, it's up to the two of you to wipe the guild's signboard clean. When the ghost-shaped man finished chattering, Zhu Peng had already turned the material in his hand to the last page.
On that page are several photographs of the brutal and bloody murder scenes, all of which seem to be dyed crimson with blood, and all that can be seen are human limbs and broken flesh and viscera. Zhu Peng's martial arts practice is determined, Yiwen closed her eyes and took a deep breath after seeing these photos, and also eased down, but if ordinary people look at these photos, it is possible to be scared and vomit on the spot.
At the bottom of the folder A4 is a brief description of a dark creature: a werewolf, which is naturally the target of this mission.
"Within three days, find him, kill him, and bring his head to me. Of course, I won't let my lovely disciple work in vain, his head is worth two hundred gold coins, and the two of you also have one hundred coins. In addition, the teacher can also advance a little private reward. "Drinking the sake that Momoya poured for him, eating the spicy garlic. The thin white-haired old man picked out three cards at random from the cards next to him, and then stretched out his hand and pushed them in front of Zhu Peng and Yiwen.
"These are three cards representing the past, present, and future, what would you choose?"
Yiwen's expression, which had not changed all along, changed slightly when she saw the three cards released by the Onishir. Although Zhu Peng likes money very much, after using the summoning elf to take down a first-order wizard whose strength is far above him almost without injury, he also knows the value of the cards launched by the ghost-shaped people.
As a veteran God Eater, the cards collected by the Ghostoid represent true power in a sense.
"It's okay, you can choose on your own. Fate, it is better to decide for yourself. Seeing that the two disciples were a little hesitant, the old man smiled and said yes.
When Zhu Peng and Yi Wen opened the three cards one by one, a sword-wielding warrior wearing black and red heavy armor, a snow-white and cute fat young dragon, and a hideous insect beast wielding double blades like an amplified mantis, each with its own own spirit, slammed into the eyes of the two people seated.
The fallen holy warrior who represented the "past", the card rank of the third order as high as the third order made Zhu Peng stunned, and he was stunned by the profound heritage of the ghost-shaped people. This tactical card, I'm afraid, is also quite strong in the third estate.
The Blood Blade Mantis represents the "present", its characteristic is sacrifice, which can be sacrificed by summoning elves in a combat state, and summoning it beyond the ranks, in other words, allowing a wizard apprentice to have a first-order summoning elf in a short period of time after paying a certain price, and the actual combat is strong, there is no need to say more.
The juvenile white dragon representing the "future", although it is a juvenile, and it is also a white dragon clan with a relatively low status among the dragon clan, but this is a dragon, and the heavenly plane is basically placed in any plane, and they are all high-level bloodline dragon clans. Although it is now a zero-order young dragon, although it can eat, sleep, and dismantle, it just can't fight, but this is a dragon, for the vast majority of people, just this reason is worth a thousand or ten thousand other sentences...... It's a dragon.
The moment the white dragon card was opened, Zhu Peng could almost clearly feel that the beautiful burgundy eyes of the silver-haired female elf beside him seemed to be burning at this moment.
She stared at the white dragon card for a moment, almost uncontrollably, and was about to reach out. However, suddenly, the ghost-shaped man said slowly, as if unintentionally: "Ino, you are a senior brother, you choose first." ”
When the ghost-shaped man full of evil taste finished saying this, Zhu Peng almost felt that the whole girl on her side was black and burning, but she didn't dare not listen to the teacher's words, so she could only stare at the man beside her, as if Qin Xianglian was staring at Chen Shimei, and Pan Jinlian was staring at Ximenqing, viciously, she wanted to swallow him whole.
