Chapter 69: Destruction of Corpses
Muck obviously didn't expect Zuo Si to react like this after seeing the tarantula statue, and the whole person was stunned in place.
You must know that in his opinion, such a tarantula statue is already a treasure that many adventurers and mercenaries dream of.
Summoned at a critical moment, it can often change the outcome of a battle in an instant.
"Yelinia! Show this guy the power you have now. β
Zuo Si directly gave orders to his shadow servants.
The female assassin raised her left hand and gently hooked her fingers into the hallway.
Next Second......
A swarm of what looked like the shadows of twisted deformed humanoids hurled through the walls, floors, and ceilings in a rush of thought.
There were almost as many of them as there were dead in this house.
There were even two of them, who had just gotten up from the corpses in the doorway.
No doubt!
These twisted monsters are all ghostly creatures without exception.
Seeing the shocked expression on Mook's face, Zuo Si explained in a nonchalant tone, "Any ghostly creature has the ability to create a derivative body, just like a vampire.
In other words, any living creature that is killed by Yelinia can turn into a new ghost in a dozen seconds to a few minutes.
New Shadows can create Shadows by killing, snowballing more and more.
And these ghosts are completely under her control and control.
If I want, I can even build up a Shadow Army in a short period of time.
Tell me, is there anything in your collection that can match this power? β
In an instant, Mook fell silent.
Because he really couldn't think of any chips he had in hand to exchange for Yelinia, who had such a powerful ability.
Most importantly, he understood the meaning of the phrase "When you're completely dead, the really fun just begins."
If killed by Yelinia, she will be transformed into a Shadow Creature.
And there is still no sane control of the lowest phantom cannon fodder.
"Hahahaha! Don't play with that ridiculous cleverness!
You know?
From the moment you sent someone to assassinate Soth, it was doomed to today's end.
He's not the stupid spellcaster who gets blinded by immediate gains.
He will not spare anyone who tries to kill or hurt him.
The reason why I have survived until now, in addition to being able to pay a large ransom, is mainly that the battle that led to the annihilation of the whole army was not provoked by me.
Instead, he thought me and my pirates were a threat, and he went on the attack.
But you're different. You have violated his taboos. β
Harlett sneered gloatingly.
The pirate captain will never forget Zuosi's decisive gesture on a desert island.
It's not about good or evil, it's just that I don't want to leave any trouble and trouble for myself.
In Harlett's eyes, this kind of person is the most terrifying!
Because it is almost impossible for them to be bought by interests, let alone accept mediation or negotiation, and once they get involved, it means that they will not die.
"Can I trade my private collection for a natural death?"
Realizing that he couldn't save Yelinia, Mook immediately retreated to the next best thing.
He didn't want to live like this curse forever, immersed in the negative emotions of pain and hatred all day long.
In fact, due to the presence of gods, death is not too terrible for most mortals of faith.
Because after death, the soul will be taken up by the god of faith and reincarnated as a suoper and continue to exist in another form.
In contrast, they are more afraid of being transformed into undead creatures such as ghosts and vampires, and bear the curse of immortality until they are killed and purified one day to be liberated.
Zuo Si stared at the lifelike tarantula statue placed on the table and thought for a moment, and quickly responded, "Yes." Write down the locations of your secret warehouses, and I'll let Harriet give you a treat. β
"Deal!"
Muk didn't even mean to bargain, he immediately pulled out a piece of paper, dipped his quill pen in ink, and quickly wrote a few lines of small words on it.
When he was done, he gently blew off the remaining moisture on his handwriting, rolled up the parchment and handed it to Zuo Si, then turned to the pirate captain and said, "Come on! Kill me! Then the grudge between us was written off. β
"A write-off? You've lost me a lot of money, you bastard! There is also an intelligence network from Port Carlin to Manon and Myratma! Hallette spat viciously.
Are you kidding!
If you can even forgive such a thing, how can you control those ambitious subordinates?
If he could, he would even like to have Mook's heart dug out alive in the most brutal way possible in front of all his men.
But unfortunately, Harlett's current status is only a captive, and he has no right to decide.
Perhaps having put everything down before he died, Mook looked very relaxed, sneered and asked, "Yours?"
I single-handedly set up the intelligence network from Port CarlΓn to Manon.
This money is also something that I have slowly accumulated through trading.
You did almost nothing except give me 20,000 gold to start up at the beginning. β
"Even so, that's mine!
Even you belong to me!
Don't forget, I bought you for 160 gold in the first place.
According to the laws of Port Carlin, you are still my slave to this day. β
As he said this, the pirate captain's eyes shone with malice and cruelty.
He deliberately uncovered the other party's scars, just to see the pained and angry expression on the betrayer's face.
It's a pity that Zuo Si wasn't interested in watching the scene of the two biting each other, so he snapped his fingers to let the [activation rope] fall off, and at the same time picked up a short sword that fell to the ground and threw it over, urging impatiently: "Don't waste time, solve it quickly, I still have to go back to the hotel to sleep." β
"Humph! You're in luck! β
Seeing Zuo Si speak, Harlet didn't dare to continue to entangle, picked up the short sword and rushed to the front with an arrow, stabbing the blade deep into the opponent's chest.
Burst!
As the end peeked out from the back, a large amount of blood instantly stained the luxurious silk robe.
After a few moments, Mook, who had lost so much blood, lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
Revenge!
The pirate captain's face was noticeably better.
He threw the dagger to the ground in a very shameful manner, and let the [Activation Rope] tie himself up again.
As for Zuo Si, he first unceremoniously took the tarantula statue on the table, and then bent down to examine Muke's corpse.
After confirming that there were no valuable magic items, he finally commanded without raising his head: "Use the magic ring to burn this corpse!" β
βοΌοΌοΌοΌβ
Yelinia was completely stunned, unable to understand what this order meant.
But she couldn't disobey her master's order, so she could only raise the [Ring of Fireball] on her finger and activate the spell stored inside.
Next Second......
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
With a violent explosion and flames, Mook's body disappeared from this world forever in an instant.
Now, if anyone wants to resurrect him, they need to use the most advanced magic or magic such as [Wishing] and [Miracle].
Yes!
The root cause of Zuosi's destruction of Mook's corpse was to prevent any friends or allies from collecting the corpse and resurrecting it later.
After all, in the magical land of Faerun, for those who are rich, powerful, and have a background, unless it is a natural death that has exhausted their lifespan, there are too many means to resurrect.
One of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent it is to destroy the corpse, which greatly increases the difficulty and cost of its resurrection.
