Chapter 26: An Unexpected Bonus
Just by seeing the two emerald green flames burning in the eye sockets of his skull, Russell felt his body stiffen, and a layer of rock-colored gray appeared on his skin.
Petrified Gaze!
Russell quickly ordered the head to close his eyes, felt the strangeness of petrification gradually fade, took out his magic phone, and checked the ability of the third contract spirit.
This skull-like spirit has only one supernatural power, and that is Medusa's petrified gaze, which can petrify creatures that see their eyes, and can also remove the petrification state according to their own wishes.
The power of the petrified gaze is actually no less than that of life. This came as a surprise to Russell. According to common sense, the extraordinary strength of the dead should not be as strong as before the death.
However, other than that, it has all its stats, such as flight speed, attack resistance, intelligence, and reaction speed, which are not outstanding, and it has no other means of attack.
Theoretically, any blind man who has the means to attack the spirit can defeat the skull-shaped spirit.
"It looks like an evil spirit with extreme abilities and a bad rating. The Petrified Gaze is at the third grade level, but all other stats are average. I wonder if Subway has a way to assess this guy's strength level? ”
Russell muttered to himself as he looked at the phantom of Medusa's skull, which looked like a skeleton and a stone statue, thought about it seriously, and asked a serious question:
"What should I name a new covenant spirit?
"A Petrified Skull-Form Spirit ......"
Xinghuo looked at the young man's back, and couldn't help but help Russell think of a name together.
The head of Medusa?
The Gorgon's gaze?
A gray skull?
"Let's call you Stone Head!" Russell slapped his thigh and thought of a good name.
Starfire questioned Russell's ability to make a name and couldn't help but cough lightly twice.
"Forget it, it's not a nice name, as if to say you're not smart - although you really are." Russell deleted the name he had just given in his phone and decided to start a new one.
"Let's call it Ling, the head sculptor." Russell came up with a new name.
"A sculptor who turns people into stone statues? The name is quite ironic. Starfire said with a smile.
"Master, I'm going to have a new name, I'm going to have a new name." The Nemnader raised his hands next to him and shouted, "You can't just call me the Nemnam, it's my racial name, and it's easy to misunderstand. ”
"Got it, let's talk about it next time, Sandman." Russell said.
Having harvested the 3rd contract spirit and caught the culprit who spread the occult disease in the academy, Russell gained a lot from this operation and shared the spoils of this battle with Starfire.
Although both Medusa and Doctor Birdbeak were defeated by Russell, this is due to the Acid Orb, the Cobweb, the Demolition Staff, the Transgender Belt, and the Teleportation Charm, not to mention that the information about the cave was also provided by Starfire, who deserved a share of the spoils......
"Wait, wait, there's a Medusa that the two of us killed. What's on Russell on your head? Feng Chime was furious and shook his fist angrily, "Is it true that the performance of employees should be recorded on the boss's head!" ”
Ignoring the wind chimes' protests, the two decided how to divide the spoils.
Starfire took the core hedron from a dozen shattered gargoyle slags - this otherworldly material was of low value, but for Starfire, a supernatural craftsman, it was always good to have more materials.
In addition, the petrified Medusa was also put into the storage ring by Starfire. The magic of petrification is reversible, and such a living Medusa will definitely make a profit if she sells it to the Academy's laboratory or biological garden.
In addition, Starfire also harvested the little crying fountain left in the previous waterhole this operation.
Looking at the already empty pool, Xinghuo's expression was slightly disappointed:
"It's a pity, when I entered the cave, there was only a little bit left at the bottom of the Weeping Fountain."
The spring of wailing souls is the most valuable thing in the cave!
At this moment, the "head sculptor", who resembled Medusa's withered head, floated to the bottom of the empty pool, and made a muffled sound from his mouth.
"What is it talking about?" Starfire looked at Russell as the owner of the spirit in surprise.
"There's something at the bottom of this pool!" Russell said, "Dig up the dirt underneath and take a look." ”
Transformed from Medusa, who had been polluted by the Weeping Fountain, this undead must have a good understanding of the environment here, and should retain a small amount of instinctive memory, even if he has not inherited much of his life's wisdom.
Starfire raised his hand to summon a stone man three or four meters tall, and used his creation ability to create a large shovel for the stone man to dig at the bottom of the already dry pool.
Bang dang.
The stone man dug up a basketball-sized, pitch-black and shiny crystal.
The crystal was like a deep night, and there were still a little stars flashing in it, and there were many strange patterns that resembled human faces in the crystal, as if hundreds of souls were imprisoned in the crystal. Just staring at the crystal was enough to make ordinary people and weaker transcendents feel dizzy or even unconscious.
"Soul Crystal? So big! Wind Chimes exclaimed.
When she was a haunted house employee before, the salary she received every time was only a small piece of soul crystal, even if the quality was higher, the value was not known to be many times different from this basketball-sized crystal.
"I see, there is a large soul hedron underneath this weeping fountain. Almost missed. Russell said thoughtfully.
Although the value of this large soul spar is not comparable to that of a whole pool of Weeping Fountains, it is also a rare priceless treasure in the world.
If it weren't for the skull sculptor's spirit body containing the contamination of the Weeping Fountain, and the innate sensitivity to the accompanying soul crystals beneath the spring, such a precious treasure would have been missed.
"This soul spar belongs to you, I have gained enough this time. You and your contract spirits are the biggest contributors to this adventure. Starfire said to Russell.
Russell didn't shirk and took the soul spar from the stone man.
As a psychic with three contract spirits, this soul spar was obviously more useful to him.
In addition to this soul crystal, this adventure also allowed him to harvest a contract spirit and a large amount of supernatural materials scavenged from the Bird's Beak Doctor.
I have to admit that a third-year powerhouse who is in the same major as himself and is proficient in herbology and necromancy carries herbs, mineral powders, essential oils and flower lotions and other materials on his body are indeed of high quality and quantity, and they can just meet his needs. At least for a long time, Russell, as a herbalist, didn't need to worry about the materials used to refine magic potions.
In addition, according to the agreement between Russell and Xinghuo, the captured Birdbeak Doctor was handed over to the school, and all the rewards obtained also belonged to Russell.
- Travel to the jungle to find out the causes of the occult plague. This was originally the task that Russell took over from Mr. Principal.
Wind Chimes watched Russell put the soul spar into the dimensional pocket, and was very happy:
"With such a large piece of soul crystal, even if I only absorb a part of it, I will definitely be able to break through to the great realm and advance to the realm of the early third year! Don't know how long to absorb? ”
"And me, I also want to divide half and enter the half-step third-grade realm as soon as possible." The pale Nightmare waved his hands behind him, signaling that his master could not ignore him.
