Chapter 38: The Second Destiny: The Puppet

"But what the hell is going on......"

"Those phantoms in the relics are more real than real people~"

"That's right, Skeleton!"

After pondering for a while, Jiuyu suddenly remembered the appearance of the black shadow at the beginning before it dissipated, and a spiritual light finally flashed in the sea of knowledge.

As soon as he thought of it, Jiuyu directly controlled the man in black to disperse, turning back into a dense black mist shining with Venus.

Then a part of the cloud and mist was separated, and with the mind, it condensed into a pitch-black human skeleton.

"Alright...... What a ghost! ”

But it's a pity that Jiuyu is not familiar with the structure of the human body, and looking at the pitch-black bones of the alien in front of him, Jiuyu feels a pain in the skull.

"Hey~ There's one and almost forget it!"

After thinking about it and thinking about it, Jiuyu, who couldn't think of a way, gave up directly and reconstructed the skeleton again.

Only this time, the bones are more alien.

The pitch-black skeleton looks thicker, and the parts are very strange, and the limbs resemble a thin human body more than bones.

Even the chest is not ribs, it is directly a flat look.

Except for some similarities, it has nothing to do with humans at all.

What's even more weird is that Jiu Yu manipulated this skeleton and started to act, and there was not much difference between his gestures and ordinary people.

"Sure enough, it's easier to be a 'robot'!"

Dao Dao praised Zijiu Yu's mouth, and he looked at these mechanical structures that were not complicated, and he was obviously very satisfied.

Because there is no need to think about energy, control, material strength, etc., this is similar to a do-it-like puppet that can be easily made.

"However, although the movements look very silky, there is still a bit of a gap, so let's just change the appearance directly to the image of the armor."

So with the change of Jiuyu's mind, the remaining black mist wrapped the skeleton, and after a while, the new image of the man in black was completed.

The outermost layer was still a black gold-rimmed cloak that covered the whole body, but the inside was no longer normal clothing.

Under the inky black cloak is a slightly simple black armor with gold edges.

Compared with the various ancient neck guards, capes, breastplates, abdominal armor, arm guards, and many other parts, this armor is more similar to the appearance of the modern style of the previous life.

The simple helmet has no parts such as red tassels, and the visor is similar to the previous mask, smooth and undulating, and there are no openings for observation.

Rather, two golden rays of light represent the position of the eyes.

However, after thinking about it, Jiuyu still changed this more cool and bizarre appearance back, so that the face armor opened a diamond-shaped hole, revealing a pair of golden eyes.

After all, it's okay to be cool and aesthetically pleasing to you, but it's a little annoying if it's too bizarre to attract unwanted attention.

"Well, that's it, let's go!"

Jiuyu nodded with satisfaction, and after taking another sip of mellow spirit wine, he controlled the black-clothed man under him to sit on the gourd that had become huge.

The next moment, the gourd brought a whistling sound of breaking wind, flew into the sky, and quickly moved towards the judged direction.

And this time there was no reckless acceleration, just a fast speed of fifty meters per second.

Although it is not as fast as the previous 300 meters per second, the speed of 180 kilometers per hour is not slow.

As the wind passed, Jiuyu looked forward to what he saw and heard in this otherworldly town, as well as the food he had never tasted.

Even the prey that I saw from time to time along the way was not in the mood to hunt.

Even before approaching the destination, there was no interest in watching a chase that he saw.

Of course, when Jiuyu passed by, the battle below also stopped for a moment.

It wasn't until the figure of Jiuyu could no longer be distinguished, and when the group of people who were being chased and killed wanted to take the opportunity to escape, the sonorous sound of the clashing of blades sounded again.

It took an hour and a half along the way, and Jiu Yu saw the figure of the relatively tall city wall of the city from a distance.

After flying for a few more minutes, Kuyu landed on an uninhabited road, and the gourd, which was large enough to be used as a mount, shrunk in size and flew to Kugo's side.

The man in black wrapped around the white snake began to gallop in the direction of the city.

Although the actions of the man in black need to consume a lot of demonic power to support, the Star Pupil Second Life itself stores an extremely large amount of energy.

Under normal circumstances, only when Jiu Yu dies, it will instantly stimulate him to resurrect with full blood.

The cost of constructing and maintaining this Black Mist Golem is one of the few ways that can consume the energy of the Star Pupil Second Life.

Moreover, it automatically draws energy from the outside world much faster than the man in black consumes.

The man in black ran much worse than he flew, but it was thirty meters per second, up to one hundred and eight kilometers per hour.

Although the pedestrians on the road did not see the black light flashing, they were still horrified to see the black shadow passing by with a whistling speed.

Even if the speed converges the closer it gets, it is a little more than eight minutes, and Jiuyu is approaching the city gate.

Looking at the flow of people queuing up to enter the city, Jiuyu breathed a sigh of relief, according to his observation, there was no entrance fee to enter the city.

So he followed the flow of people generously towards the city gate.

And Jiuyu, who was preoccupied with food and novelty, didn't notice the people around him looking at his appearance.

After all, even though Jiuyu had added a lot of stylistic elements of this world to the man in black, the aesthetics of his previous life still affected his appearance.

For these mortals, who have only traveled back and forth between several towns all their lives, the luxury and exotic customs of the people in black are too strong, and people can't help but stay away and curious.

Finally, Kuyu also came to the gate of the city under the slow push of humans.

Unlike other civilians who were easy to inspect, Jiuyu was directly stopped by two big-waisted round city guards.

"Where's Lu Yin?"

"Huh?" Listening to the words of the soldiers, the whole snake of Jiuyu was numb.

"Lu Yin, take it out!"

The city guard didn't find that the source of the voice was wrong, and he didn't be too vigilant, but he just looked at the man in black who was too ostentatious and had a headache, thinking that he couldn't understand the words, and repeated.

"Take off the mask!" The other city guard frowned, grabbed the hilt of the knife in his hand, and said vigilantly.

"Ah~" Jiuyu felt that the situation was a little wrong, and he was a little at a loss.

And the city guard, who was originally just a routine business, was also vigilant, and even secretly made a gesture and called other soldiers.

"I'll go, is it so troublesome!" Jiuyu looked at several soldiers who surrounded him, and blurted out subconsciously with a complaint.

"Huh!"

Hearing and seeing the two soldiers who were spitting out their words, the two soldiers let out a terrifying scream.

"Hug, sorry!"

"Master Immortal, please forgive me for my rude offense!"

"......" Jiuyu looked at the soldier who immediately knelt down on one knee, and the whole snake became even more numb.

"My lord, I'm just doing my duty, please let me go."

"Hmm...... It's okay...... I, we went in. The thought was just a turn, and Jiuyu understood the scruples of the soldiers.

These two people regarded him as the demon pet of the man in black, after all, the animals that can speak are not demons, but starlings, parrots and the like.

And those who can tame demon beasts are not monks and immortal masters.

"It seems that in this world, the status of monks who cultivate immortals is quite high. ’

Also, if a mortal can't beat a monk, there is only reverence. ’

The man in black armor and cloak didn't say a word, turned around and walked straight into the city gate.

And those soldiers who had originally gathered around were also distracted when they saw the actions of their colleagues, and slowly dispersed as if they had nothing to do.

"Ditch, be careful next time, not all immortal masters are so kind."

Wiping the cold sweat on his head, one of the city guards who stopped Jiuyu stood up tremblingly and said to his colleagues.

"Know, know...... I'm also a ghost, what are I doing with my mouth? ”

Remembering that he had drunk the Immortal Master just now to take off the mask, the city guard, who was called the ditch, almost fell down with a weak body.

After all, three months ago, a team of colleagues was burned by the "immortal fire" for a whole day and a night because they angered the immortal master.

The terrible scream is still hard for him to forget.

……

Ignoring the frightened soldiers, at this moment Jiuyu was snorting at the strange fragrance coming from the air.

"Food, I'm coming!"

"Oh, by the way, change the money first."

Jiu Yu struggled to discern from the strange fragrance in the air that it should be the smell of medicinal herbs, so he controlled the man in black to turn around and look for the smell.

Soon, Jiuyu found his target, which was a storefront with the sign of Jimintang, and a pair of couplets on both sides.

It's better to collapse with medicinal insects.

I hope that there will be few diseases in the world.

"Tsk, the doctor is benevolent, this ideological realm is not much higher than buying medicine and sending eggs!"

After complaining, Jiu Yu walked into the pharmacy with Shi Shiran.

"Guest officer, Dr. Zhang is treating patients, if you need anything, you can tell me first."

The busy pharmacy guy saw the man in black in a strange costume enter the pharmacy without calling anyone, and did not look around, so he hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"We're here to sell, medicinal wine."

Jiuyu withdrew his gaze from the side, and looked at the pharmacy guy without embarrassment and spoke directly.

“…… Immortal, Master Immortal, please wait a moment, I'll go and call Dr. Zhang over. ”

The pharmacy guy followed the sound and saw the white snake, and was stunned for a moment before hurriedly speaking.

"No hurry, let's wait."

Jiuyu didn't want to urge, and after stopping the pharmacy guy, he continued to look around curiously.

This was a bitter pain for the pharmacy guy, who didn't dare to say more or move around, and he sweated profusely after a while.

Fortunately, the patient's injury this time was not troublesome, and I saw an old man with crane hair walking slowly with a sad face on crutches.

"Doctor Zhang, Doctor Zhang, you are here, the Immortal Master has been waiting for a long time!"

"Immortal Master!"

"Okay, you little fifth son, you dare to slack off when the immortal master comes!"

The old man was shocked when he heard this, and then rebuked with a heart full of horror.
