Chapter 2: Soul Stigmata?!

Suddenly.

Bang bang bang –

In a roar that exploded out of thin air, huge sharp rocks with hard and coarse grains appeared on the side of the caracal wolf.

Without the slightest hesitation, the rocks tore through the air and smashed straight at the black-robed man and the black-eyed crow.

The black-robed man's eyes narrowed, and his body quickly retreated, and he shouted as he distanced himself from the caracal wolf:

"Black-eyed crow, Iron Feather!"

Ga!!!

With a hoarse chirp, the black-eyed crow fluttered its wings, and its well-defined black feathers quietly fell off, like a sharp sword, and met the huge rock without the slightest hesitation.

With the incessant roar of collision and the sonorous sound of metal, some rocks that were obviously countless times smaller and rustled fell, filling most of the study.

Along with that, there is the billowing dust that fills the study.

The woman took advantage of the situation to come to Li Changan's side and check his physical condition.

After making sure that he still had a breath, his expression was slightly relieved.

"Take care of it for me."

As he spoke, he put a small inconspicuous thing that was originally buried in his arms into Li Changan's hand.

"Squeak-"

It's a little thing that looks like a brown-haired squirrel.

Blinking with big eyes, he left the woman's arms with reluctance.

Li Changan was stunned to smell the faint fragrance in the air, feeling the restless state of the little thing on his body, looking at the woman who got up slowly, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Psychic mouse?"

Bang!!

The fierce wind that swept suddenly swept away the dust and rocks that filled the room in an instant, revealing a black-robed man with an ugly expression and a black-eyed crow hovering in the air with its wings flapping.

However, the woman's expression is not very good-looking.

But he still said: "Around the funeral venue of Professor Yan Fuchun, there happens to be a psychic mouse foraging for food. ”

The black-robed man only showed half of his face, and he could still feel the heaviness of his face.

Obviously.

The woman used the psychic mouse's special perception of 'spirits', as well as the caracal's own sense of smell, to find and lock on to him.

But the next moment.

"Huh-"

The gloom on the black-robed man's face suddenly dissipated, and he even showed a slight mocking chuckle.

"Ran Swordfish, do you think I don't know you're chasing me? Or do you think that this psychic mouse is the only one you can find? ”

"Huh?"

The woman named Ran Jianyu and Li Changan, who was paralyzed on the ground, were stunned.

What do you mean?

The black-robed man shrugged his shoulders and dusted off his body with ease.

When he raised his head again, his tone was full of cold murderous intent.

"This is a flaw left in order to lure you over. Otherwise, why would I let this kid run all the way? The black-robed man pointed at Li Changan, and his words were full of disdain.

"What do you want to say?"

Ran Swordfish asked.

Slender fingers clenched slowly.

"I'm the only one who knows this secret, that's enough!"

The black-robed man flicked his sleeves vigorously and did not explain again.

"Black-eyed crow, the puppet!"

Directly command the spirit beast Black-eyed Crow to launch an offensive against the Ran Swordfish and the Caracal Wolf.

Ga!!!

The black-eyed raven's shiny beak opened violently, ripples of transparent sound spreading from its mouth.

Along with it, there are also hazy and clear silk threads intertwined in the moonlight.

The objects in the room, while touching these "silk threads", hang in the air.

Ran Swordfish didn't dare to dwell too much on these issues.

Feeling the ferocity from the black-eyed crow, he slapped the back of the vicious wolf, and shouted:

"Caracal wolf, cage restraint!"

Bang bang bang!!

The two spirit beasts collided fiercely directly in this small space.

made the originally neat study room a mess in an instant.

Ran Swordfish didn't understand the words of the black-robed man.

Li Changan, who was sitting in the back, understood.

The reason why the black-robed man deliberately lured Ran Swordfish over was to strangle all those who knew about the Black Leather Manual, or tried to know the existence of the Black Leather Manual, here!

Leave all the secrets to him!

So, what exactly is that black leather manual that has disappeared?

Wait a minute!

This girl almost made me run to death, just to lure Ran Swordfish over?

Uncle's!

The violent wheezing once again affected the pain on his body, and the pain made Li Changan grin.

"Squeak-"

Li Changan, who was drenched all over, finally recovered, but the little squirrel standing on his lap clenched his fists and kept shouting.

It seems to be cheering for the Ran Swordfish and the Caracal Wolf.

Spirit beast psychic mouse.

Li Changan tried to distract himself from the pain.

Recall information about psychic rats in your mind.

[Name]: Psychic Mouse

[Attribute]: Knowledge

[Race Potential]: Superior security level

[Racial Skills]: Psychic, Dancing Claws, Rodents......

[Strength]: Unknown

[Introduction]: An extremely petite squirrel-like spirit animal, which does not have too strong combat ability, but because of its sensitive sense of smell and good ability to make holes, it is a natural treasure hunting spirit animal, and is good at finding spiritual materials and treasures.

The spirit animal of the psychic mouse is a relatively common spirit animal, and it is also one of the few spirit animals that can be active in the human world.

But just as he looked at the little guy on his body, ready to let it be light, he was stunned.

Because, he actually saw a few lines of small words on the psychic mouse's body.

[Name]: Psychic Mouse

[Endeavor]: 10

(Psychic): 5

(Dancing Claw): 4

(rodents):1

[Efficiency]: 25

(Psychic): 13

(Dancing Claw): 8

(rodents): 4

Li Changan blinked, sure it wasn't dazzling.

What is this?

I didn't see it on the black-eyed crow just now.

He looked up at the Rock Wolves and Black-Eyed Crows in the midst of the fierce battle.

In Ran Swordfish's caracal wolf, he also saw the message.

[Name]: Caracal wolf

[Endeavor]: 55

[Efficiency]: 65

There is less information and more vague than what can be seen on psychic mice.

Because..... Distance?

Yes.

The black-eyed crow who was farther away could not see the information, and he saw rough information on the relatively close caracal wolf, and on the psychic mouse that was close at hand, he saw very detailed values, and even the efficiency column had plus and minus signs.

Plus and minus?

"Squeak!!"

The psychic mouse didn't notice that Li Changan was observing it, and still clenched his fists and waved them up and down, as if he could attack the black-eyed crow in this way.

It's just that it jumped up and down like this, so that Li Changan's finally distracted attention had to focus on his twitching leg again.

"Shhhh ”

"Squeak?"

At this time, the little psychic mouse reacted to Li Changan's existence.

Looking at his expression, I also realized what kind of damage my actions might have caused to him.

Embarrassed, he stuck out his little tongue.

Tightly gestured with both hands.

The fierce expression represents the caracal wolf, and the arms waving up and down represent the black-eyed crow, and it tiptoes closer, and the next second it grabbed its neck and rolled its eyes and fell on Li Changan's legs.

Although the performance was slightly exaggerated, Li Changan understood what it meant.

Tentatively asked:

"You want to say that the battle between the caracal wolf and the black-eyed crow, you may die if you get close?"

"Squeak-"

The psychic mouse nodded repeatedly.

Li Changan looked at the two sides of the fierce battle again, and recalled the information about the caracal wolf in his mind.

[Name]: Caracal wolf

[Attribute]: Order

[Race Potential]: Restricted Inferior Level

[Racial Skills]: Psionic Smell, Command, Rock Coffin, Cage Restraint......

[Strength]: Unknown

[Introduction]: The ferocious wolf spirit beast that inhabits the craggy rocks, it is said to contain rare dragon blood, and is a natural guardian of order, a guardian of the ring, from the sharp rock cone on its back, you can judge the strength of the ability.

"Also, they are all spirit beasts with restricted-level inferior potential......"

Safety, Negative, Restriction...... This is the level of potential division of the spirit animal, and it is also the level of the "strength" of the spirit animal.

Ran Swordfish's caracal wolf and black-robed man's black-eyed crow were both spirit beasts with restricted-level inferior potential, while the psychic mouse was only a safety-level high-potential spirit beast, and it was a whole level away from the other two.

Although the potential does not represent the true strength of a spirit beast, it can also represent the strength of the spirit beast to a certain extent.

"Squeak!!"

The psychic rat, who had finished performing for Li Changan, continued to pay attention to the battle.

When it comes to critical moments, it can't help but want to use its skills.

At this time.

Li Changan noted.

The value of the psychic mouse's ability that he could see had changed.

In the "Effort" column, the effort value of the "Dancing Claw" skill has increased rapidly.

Meanwhile.

Brush Brush –

Tiny claws shot out from their fingertips and staggered in the air, leaving several milky white scratches.

Looking at this change in value, Li Changan was slightly stunned.

The psychic rat wants to perform the "Dancing Claw", so the effort value of the "Dancing Claw" has been increased?

However, there is no change in the efficiency value.

Instead, my heart moved.

If you say that with the same effort, the higher the efficiency value, the higher the power of the skill you cast, and if you want to increase the efficiency value......

Li Changan locked his gaze on the plus and minus signs on the "efficiency" column of the psychic mouse.

Seems to understand the purpose of the values he can see.

Bang!!

There was a bang.

"Caracal wolf!"

Immediately, the Ran swordfish appeared behind the caracal wolf.

In the next second, it was smashed out and slammed into the bookshelf beside Li Changan.

Along with the cracking of the wooden bookshelves, and the large number of books falling with a clatter.

The sound of fierce fighting in the study died down.

Seeing this scene, the psychic mouse reacted the fastest.

Lying on Li Changan's lap with his eyes rolled......

Play dead.

Li Changan's heart chuckled.

Oops.

The other side dared to calculate Ran Swordfish, indeed because he had enough confidence in the strength of the black-eyed crow.

"Ahemβ€”"

The embarrassed Ran Swordfish and the Rock Wolf pushed away the books that were pressing on them and staggered to their feet.

The corners of his mouth were dripping with blood, and his eyes were staring at the opposite side, with an extremely serious expression.

"Whew-"

The caracal wolf whined softly and stopped in front of Ran Swordfish and Li Changan.

"It's useless." The voice of the black-robed man came again, "Ran Swordfish, since I know about your existence and dare to lure you over, I naturally have my certainty." ”

The contemptuous eyes passed through the hood, swept over Li Changan and Ran Jianyu, and finally stopped on the body of the caracal wolf.

"Although your Rock Vicious Wolf has great potential, its strength is only the third order of the negative level. Besides, in terms of potential, my black-eyed crow is no worse than a caracal wolf. ”

In the words, there is no concealment of complacency.

Regarding the black-robed man's provocative and mocking words, Ran Jianyu did not speak with a calm face.

The third order of the negative level is the strength of the Ran Swordfish's caracal wolf.

"What should I do?" Li Changan couldn't help but ask.

Ran Swordfish lost the blood stains on the corner of his mouth, glanced at him, frowned and said in a deep voice:

"Can you go?"

Li Changan showed a bitter smile.

But I also know that if I can't walk at this time, I may be abandoned.

Gritting his teeth, he nodded fiercely and said, "Yes!" ”

Ran swordfish heavy jaw.

"I'll open a road, you rush out, find the sheriff's office, and tell them about the situation here!"

Rush out?

Out of the corner of Li Changan's eye, he glanced at the door that had been blocked.

But he still didn't say anything, and replied in a deep voice: "Okay! ”

Whether you can survive or not may depend on this time.

"Caracal wolf, command. Forbidden here! ”

He didn't have any time to prepare, and while commanding the vicious wolf, Ran Swordfish slapped him on the shoulder.

"Let's go!"

"Whew-"

The caracal wolf roared in the sky, the sound of the wolf roaring mixed with a shallow golden halo, and at the same time, the mysterious power seemed to make it incarnate into the leader of the wolf pack.

"Spirituality" is forbidden here!

Li Changan didn't dare to hesitate at all, picked up the psychic mouse that pretended to be dead, endured the severe pain on his body, ignored the darkness in front of him caused by the sudden rise, and slammed headlong towards the door.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

He's never been like this moment and wants to run as fast as he can.

The distance between him and the door seemed to be the chasm between life and death.

But.

Things often don't work out that way.

"Let's go?!"

I heard the cold snort of the black-robed man.

"Black-eyed crow, Iron Feather!"

This moment.

Li Changan's heart fell like an ice cellar.

Isn't it a forbidden spirit?

It was also at this moment that a lot of thoughts rose in my heart.

Did Ran Swordfish deliberately let himself run to attract the other party's attention?

Can he go back if he dies again just after he has just crossed over?

What does it feel like to die?

But also in this short moment.

A strong desire to survive instantly filled Li Changan's heart, and all distracting thoughts were swept away.

He grabbed the psychic mouse in his hand and held it sideways to the black-robed man and the black-eyed crow.

"Squeak squeak?!"

The psychic rat panicked.

I never thought that I would be used as a shield.

But.

With such a small body, how can it be used as a shield?

Just listening, Li Changan's hoarse voice seemed to come from Jiuyou.

"Dancing Claw!"

The psychic mouse's heart trembled.

Let its "dancing claws" resist the "iron feathers" of the black-eyed crow?

Seeing that the feathers with a metallic luster were close at hand, the psychic mouse could only be heartbroken.

Make every possible effort!

Brush Brush –

The extremely skillful "Dance Claw" skill allowed it to be successfully released before the metal feathers could wipe over it.

However, when casting the "dancing claws", the psychic mouse has a very strange feeling.

It's like......

I used the same amount of effort as usual, but I did a more efficient behavior.

Qiang Qiang Qiang –

The sound of metal colliding, accompanied by splashing sparks, suddenly burst into light in the small room.

Rumble!!!

Li Changan hugged the psychic mouse and slammed it against the wall.

The old walls, the skin of the wall that was directly smashed fell off.

"Ahem, ahem!!"

A mouthful of crimson blood bloomed in the air.

But this result made both the black-robed man and Ran Swordfish look surprised.

"Huh?"

"Squeak?"

Psychic rats are also full of accidents.

Although the collision still made it painful, and its claws and palms were covered in blood from the shock, it was still surprised.

Myself...... Can actually block the "iron feather" of the black-eyed crow?

This is, why?

Only Li Changan knows.

His bloodshot eyes jerked up and he grinned in a bloodshot grin.

His conjecture was correct!

At the moment when he commanded the psychic mouse just now, he changed the efficiency value of the psychic mouse's "dancing claw".

Turned to the highest!

The 25-point efficiency value of "Dancing Claw" does not fight against the black-eyed crows, but it keeps them alive.

The price is.

Originally, he was just in pain all over his body, but at this moment, his head was like being pricked by a needle, and the stinging pain was abnormal.

Moreover, the fragile claws of the psychic rat were drenched in blood.

Ran Jianyu really didn't expect that the black-eyed crow would be able to break free from the shackles of the "order" so quickly, causing Li Changan and the psychic mouse to fall into a dead end.

But she probably had some conjecture.

Since the black-robed man knew about her existence with the caracal wolf, and wanted to kill her and Li Changan here so boldly, he must have made sufficient preparations.

After all, the black-eyed crow is stronger than the caracal wolf, but it is not so obvious.

But the surprise in her heart at the moment was definitely heavier than that of the black-robed man.

Because she knows best how "weak" the strength of the psychic mouse is.

couldn't help but look at Li Changan, who was covered in blood.

Just met his bloodshot eyes, full of desperate fights.

My heart trembled inexplicably.

But from Li Changan's eyes, I understood what he meant.

Do it!

The teeth were bitten and the palms waved.

"Caracal wolf, cage restraint!"

The black-robed man scratched the "lucky" Li Changan fiercely, although he hadn't figured out what the situation was, but the offensive launched by Ran Swordfish and the Caracal Rock Wolf again made him have to deal with it.

And at this very moment.

Li Changan's blood-drenched smile became extremely hideous.

This is the struggle of man in the most desperate moments.

A low, hoarse whisper sounded in the ears of the grinning psychic mouse.

"Little one, psychic!"

Forcibly endured the increasingly intense stinging pain in his head, and pulled the efficiency of the "psychic" skill under the "efficiency" column of the efficiency of the psychic mouse to the maximum!

As the efficiency value of "psychic" changed, the stinging pain in his mind seemed to drown Li Changan's consciousness and swallow his mind like a tide.

[Skill]: Psychic

[Attribute]: Knowledge

[Grade]: Negative level is inferior

[Proficiency]: C, etc

[Introduction]: You can perceive the "spirit" fluctuations on the other party through your own "spirit", and at the same time have a certain hypnotic and ecstasy effect.

This time, the psychic mouse did not hesitate.

Like Li Changan, it knows that only by killing the black-robed man can it survive now.

"Squeak!!"

I saw that in the big eyes of the psychic mouse, there was a faint light blue glow, and a faint ripple rippled open.

"Psychic?" The black-robed man laughed.

Do you really think that a weak psychic rat can stir up how much wind and waves?

"What?!"

Can be a second.

His expression stiffened.

Because he clearly felt that the light around him became dim and the figures became blurred.

His consciousness was gradually becoming chaotic, and his mental activity was rapidly decreasing.

Even with the power of the contract with the black-eyed crow.

His mind and consciousness were sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire.

After thousands of calculations, he didn't calculate that such an inconspicuous psychic mouse could perform such a "psychic".

Even the black-eyed crow, under the influence of the psychic mouse, was sluggish in consciousness and movement for a moment.

Although it quickly broke free.

But this is a short delay for it to fight against the caracal wolf, which is not much different in strength......

Extremely deadly!

On top of that, the Soul Master's consciousness is sluggish!

Bang bang bang –

Countless rocks and rubble were overwhelming, accompanied by the huge body of the caracal wolf, and they swooped down heavily.

In an instant, the black-robed man and the black-eyed crow were covered under a large number of rocks.

The same look of disbelief.

There is also Ran Swordfish.

She looked at Li Changan, who fell heavily to the ground and was about to fall into a coma, and couldn't hide her surprise and whispered to herself:

"B-level proficiency psychic?!"

She made the psychic mouse's "psychic" skill use it all the way, and it was definitely only barely reaching the C level proficiency.

But just now, the "channeling" cast by the psychic rat showed a range effect that can only be achieved by B-level proficiency.

Immediately, it seemed that something had come to mind.

The pupils in the already widened apricot eyes contracted suddenly.

"Spirit, Soul Stigmata: Enhanced?!"

The mountains in her chest rose and fell, and she spoke the conjecture in her heart.

And at the same time.

In the last slit of his eyes, after seeing the black-robed man and the black-eyed crow being crushed under the rock, and the black-eyed crow was even more bitten in the mouth by the caracal wolf and screaming, Li Changan finally couldn't control his consciousness and was completely unconscious.

At the moment when he was unconscious.

He saw a familiar black leather manual, which dimly appeared before his eyes.

It turns out that it's here......
