Chapter 101: Sharing the Soul
"Sergeant Burke, mission accomplished. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info You see, this is the crystallization of Mary's soul, and there should be no more puppet killings in the town. Jaime, your wife can come and leave without regrets. ”
After taking the scarlet soul crystal out of his belt bag and showing it to Burke, and then comforting Jaime a few words, the mission was finally over.
Although Watson was very concerned about the bottle of potion, it was impossible to deduce who did it based on the information Mary said, the only thing that could be known was that this potion still needed to be used, and it was not just a matter of finding someone to drink it to turn his dead soul into a ghost.
Then the men of the garrison began to clean up the mess, and it was already about two o'clock in the afternoon, and Watson wanted to go back to Verdas, but thought that if he returned to Verdas now, he would have to hurry at night.
He was not familiar with the journey between Rivendell and Verdas, and it was likely that he would get lost at night, and he would waste more time when the time came, so he was going to stay at Mayor Edward's house for another night, and Jaime did invite them to stay for a dinner party, so he agreed.
After returning to the mayor's mansion, Watson first greeted Edward, saying that he needed to rest because he had exhausted his strength from the long battle, and that he didn't want to be disturbed, and that he would talk about it at dinner, and then told Viola that he needed to meditate and not bother him.
Naturally, Edward had no reason to refuse the small request of the benefactor who saved his town, and asked the maid to tidy up the room and put on a new bedding immediately.
In fact, Watson just wanted to find a quiet place to absorb the soul crystal, entered the room and called out the maid who was serving next to him, threw the dumplings on the bed, locked the door and leaned against the bed, took out the soul crystal and put it on his eyebrows, and the soul energy was like a clear spring, pouring into his mind that was tired from using his mental power excessively.
The soul spar slowly dissolved, and the hint in Watson's mind kept ringing: Soul repair is ...... Current progress 3.5%, current lifespan: 9 years 3 months 23 days 6 hours.
Gain Soul Ability: Psychic Shock: Inflict a mental impact on the target, according to the difference in mental power between the two sides, if the user's mental power is higher than the target, there is a certain chance to cause a coma, chaotic effect, if the user's mental power is lower than the target, it will cause a mental impact on the target, causing it to suffer mental damage.
It's another new ability, although it doesn't seem to be as magical as the void skill, but it's very practical, and it's quite effective for interrupting the target's movements, which is also Watson's first long-range attack method on the table, and it won't be so helpless in the face of those outrageous beings who fly in the sky or are fast.
The lifespan has increased by more than a year, and it could have actually increased more, but Watson stopped absorbing the soul spar immediately after the soul ability was obtained, and touched the spar in his hand, compared to consuming it all to increase the lifespan of a few months or increase some spiritual power, Watson had a better arrangement for it.
"Viola, come up to me, I have something to tell you!"
I opened the door, walked to the side of the hallway, and shouted to Viola, who was sitting on the sofa downstairs eating pastries, and the other party immediately put down what he was holding, ran upstairs, and walked into Watson's room.
"Is there anything you're looking for me?
"This soul spar is for you, absorbing the soul power inside can enhance your spiritual power, because with your current level, it is really difficult to help me, and there are not many ways I can think of to make you stronger quickly, and this is more convenient at present. ”
Yes, this remaining small piece of thumb-sized soul crystal was deliberately left over by Watson for Viola, and the soul energy contained in it was nothing to Watson, but for Viola, who was just getting started with energy control and his mental power and his lack of spiritual power, it was like the best growth item.
It can help Viola complete the initial accumulation of mental power, so that it can manipulate the thunder elemental energy to join her own combat system, so that she can only attach a little bit to the tip of the knife as before, and whether she can attack the enemy depends on luck.
The reason for this is indeed as Watson said, since he has decided to train Viola to be his assistant, then a certain amount of effort is naturally necessary, not to mention that according to his current strength, the difficulty of accepting commissions will only continue to increase and he will not take on those low-level tasks.
If Viola's strength can't grow quickly, then in the future mission, she can only stand outside the house and wait for Watson like today, because her strength is not enough to support her to fight side by side with Watson.
"This kind of thing...... Are you really going to give it to me? It's not a precious thing......"
Although it was the first time she had seen this kind of soul crystal, Viola still understood that this kind of thing was very precious, and it was a great trust for Watson to be able to hand over this kind of thing to her, and she accepted this kind of gift for the first time in her life, and she also understood Watson's words as care for herself, and her eyes immediately turned red.
"Hey, what the hell did you make up in your own brain, I just gave you the crystallization of the rest of my soul with me, so that you can play the basic role of an assistant, there is no need to be so moved, right? Why are you still shedding tears...... Anyway, here's what I'm going to use!"
"Thank you, thank you very much, I will use this soul crystal well and repay you!"
Viola automatically ignored Watson's explanation, hugged him with red eyes and whispered.
After about ten seconds of being full, Viola let go of Watson, pinched the soul crystal in his hand, and ate it in one gulp, as if he had made some great determination...... Ate it?
"Are you stupid? Who told you this thing is for food!"
Fortunately, Watson had been sitting next to her, and when he saw this terrifying scene, he immediately reached out and slapped Viola's back to make her vomit, looking at her speechlessly.
"Isn't this food? So how should I use it......"
The half-swallowed soul crystal stuck in her throat was forcibly slapped out, causing Viola to blush and ask in an embarrassed whisper.
"Put it on your forehead and use your mental power to digest it! Why are you so stupid, do you think it's maltose, and if you swallow it, it will melt by itself? Or are you very confident in your stomach acid and can digest this hedron condensed by soul energy?"
Pointing to the soul crystal in Viola's hand, which still had saliva in his hand, Watson asked with a black line on his face.
After understanding the use, Viola obediently put the soul spar on her forehead and eyebrows, and the few spiritual powers penetrated into it, slowly absorbing the soul energy inside, unlike Watson's fast speed, she was very slow to extract soul energy because of her weak mental power.
The feeling of this rapid increase in mental power was intoxicating, and Viola naturally quickly immersed herself in this kind of thing for the first time, putting all her attention into the soul blending in her mind.
So Viola stayed on Watson's bed until dusk, so that Watson, who wanted to rest, could only sit on the chair next to him with milk tea, and couldn't take his eyes off looking at her, guarding against possible accidents.
The soul spar continued to weaken from the size of her thumb, and finally became a small point of light that merged into Viola's eyebrows, and she finally woke up at this time, Watson could feel that Viola's mental power had grown considerably, and it should have reached the level of most demon hunters when they were intermediate demon hunters and was already very close to the advanced level.
Don't think it's fast, Viola's own strength is not weak, and her hand-to-hand combat ability is also at the average level of a demon hunter, what is lacking is that this is just the communication and use of energy.
Although Watson used the rest, but this level of soul spar is not something that can be taken out casually, even Watson did not use this kind of thing to increase his spiritual power when he was a demon hunter, and this spar is very useful for mages to increase their mental power, not to mention for beginners like Viola.
Moreover, the soul spar only increases the amount of her mental power, not that Viola has reached the point where she can skillfully use it, and the control of energy using mental power will become the most important thing for her to practice at present, and only when she can truly use these spiritual powers for her own use, Watson will submit a letter of recommendation to the guild for her.
"How much thunder can you control now? Try to mobilize them to form a barrier in front of you. ”
Seeing Viola wake up, Watson intends to test what she can do now.
With the unique sound of thunder elemental energy, a purple barrier of thunder energy that almost covered Viola's upper body appeared in front of her.
Manipulating a small part of the dark energy to condense into a small dark energy claw and rushing towards the barrier, it was quickly consumed by the lightning energy barrier, which made Watson nod his head, it is not unreasonable that the thunder element has always been one of the several energies that melee professionals want to communicate the most.
Of all the elements, thunder and fire are the two most irritable, unlike Watson's dark energy, which can delay the recovery of wounds for a long time, and thunder energy, which maximizes damage and paralyzes the enemy's wounds, which is naturally useful in close combat.
"Can I become a Demon Hunter now? Write a letter of recommendation for me, and I'll go to the Demon Hunter Guild for an inauguration test when I get back." ”
Viola was very excited to feel the use of this energy, and said to Watson excitedly.
