Chapter 45: Sunflowers
As Li Changan pulled the trigger, the special "Soul Containment" bullet that contained his "soul" exploded in the corner of the ceiling.
It's a pity that this is the first time Li Changan has used a pistol, and the accuracy is indeed a bit unsightly.
But it still played a role.
With the burst of bullets in the firelight, splashing under the sparks.
"Whew!"
I saw that in the corner where there was nothing originally, a figure slowly emerged.
It resembles a lizard, with an emerald green body, yellow spots on its back, a slender tail curled, and two prominent eyes glowing red, which is full of malicious and fierce lights.
stared at Li Changan tightly, quite jealous of the revolver he was holding in his hand.
"It's ......."
Seeing this chameleon, Zhou Hai, Zhou Yingpeng and all the workers in the factory showed surprise.
I didn't expect that in the factory where they worked, there was such a spirit beast hiding.
Seeing this guy, Li Changan narrowed his eyes.
"Dementors." Slowly spit out its name.
[Name]: Dementor lizard
[Attribute]: Chaos
[Race Potential]: Superior security level
[Racial Skills]: Invisibility, Binding, Soul Dementorship.......
[Strength]: Unknown
[Introduction]: Chameleon-like spirit animals, have a soft spot for human "souls", like to live in damp corners such as cemeteries and dark woods, are good at hiding their bodies, and rarely take the initiative to attack. Note: However, living with a Dementor lizard for a long time can lead to mental exhaustion and malaise.
When he held Zhou Hai's brooch just now, he keenly noticed the abnormal light in the southeast corner of the ceiling.
In addition, he had noticed that the "souls" of the workers were scattered in the direction of the southeast corner.
So he did not hesitate to pull the trigger of the revolver.
As it turned out, he was not wrong.
As for why his "Soul Vision" and Xiao Douding's "Psychic" didn't discover it, it was probably because of his special "stealth" skills.
Li Changan turned on the "soul vision" again without moving.
This time.
He could clearly see the fluctuations in the "spirituality" contained in the dementor lizard.
"Security Level 5."
Roughly judged its strength.
"Director Zhou, please take everyone out first." Li Changan didn't look back, and said in a calm tone.
“...... Oh oh, good! ”
Zhou Hai reacted a few beats slower, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to run outside the factory.
However, the moment Li Changan pulled the revolver, he had completely angered the soul lizard.
Seeing that his "food" was about to escape, a fierce light burst out in his eyes.
Tightly closed mouth open.
A pink tongue stained with viscous liquid ejected.
Roll towards the nearest worker, panicked.
Binding!
"Little Fantasy."
Li Changan, who had been prepared for a long time, was not flustered, but just shouted silently in his heart.
"Meow!!"
The next second.
The little phantom limbs standing on his shoulders suddenly tensed, and his petite body suddenly burst up.
Under the blinding incandescent light, it could be clearly seen that a thin black mist was curling from its body, surrounding its body.
Shadow Escape!
Although it was not possible to completely conceal its form in such a place as obvious as the light, it also increased its speed to a certain extent.
Li Changan let it often train in the "shadow escape" under the noon sun, which played a role in actual combat.
Whoosh –
The little black illusion was bathed in black mist, like a black lightning bolt, quickly smoothing the distance between it and the dementor lizard's tongue.
As the dementor's long, soft, but tough tongue touched the worker, a flash of silver light.
Whew!!
"Whew!"
The tongue is attacked.
The dementor felt the pain and jerked his tongue back.
When it was all withdrawn from its mouth, it was flushed red.
Hurt.
At the same time, the Dementor lizard was flustered.
At this time, it realized that Xiao Fan's strength was stronger than it.
Most importantly, the claws were far sharper than it could have imagined.
The dementors want to escape!
Seeing this, Li Changan's face turned pale, and through the communication bridge built by the "spiritual balance", he continued to command:
"Don't let it run, Dancing Claw!"
Dementors are dangerous spirit animals.
Although the harm is not strong, according to the regulations of the Tranquility Society, if you see this spirit animal in a human habitation area, you must clean it up as soon as possible.
So Li Changan didn't have the slightest intention of keeping his hand.
The little phantom dexterously landed without a moment's stay, and its long-term physical fitness and dexterity training in the woods made it show good dexterity.
Turn around and leap to the ceiling.
When passing through the height of the incandescent lamp and entering a dim area where the light does not shine, the little phantom figure is completely enveloped in black mist.
The sudden disappearance of the figure made the dementor even more panicked.
Desperately crawling towards the window, trying to escape from there.
But when it was halfway through, it saw a black mist appear in front of it quickly, and as the mist slowly dissipated, a cold claw came towards it.
The dementor's eyes were filled with panic and nervousness.
Attempting to cast the "Dementor" skill.
But in a panic, it has not yet had time to use it, but the cold light in its eyes is becoming more and more obvious.
The cold feeling swept through the whole body.
Burst!!
With the bloom of bright red flowers, Xiaophantom landed lightly.
Bang!!
A green lizard followed, slamming into the ground.
There was no movement.
The whole process didn't take more than ten seconds from the time it happened to the end, which made Zhou Hai, who was only halfway there, and the workers all look at this scene in a daze.
Just, it's over?
They were nervous a second ago, and they knew by the appearance of the dementor lizard that it was not a good stubble.
The dementor lizard's behavior of not hesitating to attack the fleeing workers made them even more frightened.
Although in this world, the spirit animal culture has spread to every corner of the world.
But the news of the accidental death of the spirit beast in the mouth of the spirit beast every year is also extraordinary.
The tide of spirit beast disasters in various places has never stopped.
Most ordinary people still maintain a sense of awe for spirit animals.
But when they panicked at the appearance of the "vicious" spirit beast, they panicked and didn't choose the way.
I saw that in just a few tens of seconds, the spirit beast was solved.
"I didn't expect that there was such a spirit beast hidden in our factory."
"Let's just say that I always feel dizzy during this time, and I went to the health center to check the various indicators of the body but there is no problem, it must be because of this spirit beast!"
"It's good that I was dealt with by this, this Mr. vigilante."
“...”
The situation was stable, and while the workers were relieved, they couldn't help but whisper.
looked at Li Changan's eyes, with a little respect, and a little fear.
"Brother Li and Li Changan, the problem, the problem is solved?"
Zhou Hai then took Zhou Zhou Yingpeng and walked over again.
I don't know how much better the attitude is than before.
"Hmm." Li Changan nodded expressionlessly.
He looked at the dementor lying on the ground, and little by little he tried to inject the "soul" into the brooch in his hand.
The information obtained after a brief understanding relieved all his doubts.
"So the reason why the workers of our factory are like this is all because of this spirit beast?" Zhou Hai couldn't help but ask curiously.
"There are some reasons, but not all."
"Not all?"
Li Changan looked at Zhou Hai again and gestured to the brooch in his hand.
"The main problem, in fact, came from here first."
"This brooch?" Zhou Hai was stunned.
"It's called 'Sunflower', and it's a historical instrument that absorbs light and converts it into special powers, which heals injuries and relieves fatigue. The reason why the workers in the factory are mentally exhausted but so physically healthy is because of its 'credit'. ”
Li Changan suppressed the change in his expression and said in a restrained tone as much as possible.
In fact, this "sunflower" brooch, in addition to healing injuries and relieving fatigue, also has certain side effects on the user.
And this side effect is very intuitive, it is....... Hair loss.
This is also the reason why Li Changan used his "soul vision" to see Zhou Hai's "soul" escaping towards his head.
It's just that considering that Zhou Hai's head is already as bright as a light bulb, he won't say anything to hit him.
"Sunflowers? Historical utensils? ”
Zhou Hai chewed on the noun given by Li Changan.
He couldn't have imagined that a brooch could have such a function.
Li Changan put away the brooch, gently stroked Xiao Huan's back, and continued to explain in a soothing and low voice:
"A healthy physical state can indeed give workers the illusion that they are still able to work, but long-term mental fatigue cannot be recovered, resulting in a decrease in mental immunity, which has become the best target for the dementor lizard, and this factory has become its most comfortable 'restaurant', thus aggravating the progression of this sign."
Zhou Hai suddenly bowed his head and sighed:
"That is, our ...... Psychic immunity, yes, is the word. It was the decrease in our spiritual immunity that attracted this spirit beast. Just like our body's immunity is weakened and we get sick? ”
"Coupled with the fatigue-relieving effect of the 'Sunflower' brooch, it also has a certain attraction to the dementor lizard." Li Changan added.
Under the double temptation, the dementor lizard, who likes to be damp and dark, will appear here.
"What about my nightmare......"
Zhou Hai thought of his own problem again.
"It's also because of it. While the brooch is working, it will drain your spirit, and you will consume it faster than the workers, and when you are extremely exhausted, nightmares will follow. ”
Ordinary people use the spirit master equipment, even if they don't use it actively, but just carry it unconsciously, and after a long time, it will make people feel sluggish, or even mentally die.
Soul masters, who have learned to control their own "souls", can control the use of these instruments.
Hearing this, Zhou Haicai breathed a sigh of relief.
"Please take this brooch with you."
With a somewhat pleading tone.
He really didn't dare to touch this brooch again, what if he really "sucked" him to death.
Professional things should still be handed over to professional people.
Li Changan nodded and did not refuse.
It's good, the province continues to flicker.
Actually, it's not a fool.
This brooch is indeed harmful to ordinary people, but it is a rare good thing for the spirit master.
The only downside may be...... Hair.
Li Changan estimated the amount of his hair.
Should...... You can afford to play a few times.
"Let me ask curiously, where did you get this brooch?"
Zhou Hai's expression was completely relaxed, and he smiled a little embarrassedly.
"I don't usually have any hobbies, I like to buy some old things, and this thing is also something I bought in the antique market, and it looks chic, so I wear it on my body."
After a pause, he sighed:
"Sure enough, professional things still have to be handled by professional people. You're the most professional spirit beast expert I've ever met. ”
Although, he didn't come into contact with many such people at all.
"You're welcome. If nothing else, I'll take my leave. ”
Zhou Hai immediately understood.
Hurriedly said: "Xiaopeng, send Brother Chang'an for me." ”
At the same time, the eyes are indicating.
Don't forget.
