Chapter 20: The Black Coffin

In the canopy of the giant tree with corpses, the sky-high pillars of golden red fire slowly dissipated, revealing the almost dying shrike bird.

At this time, the small half of its body on the right side was blown to pieces, and one wing had disappeared, and the section was incomplete and charred, and the broken bone stubble and wriggling internal organs were faintly visible.

With just one arrow, the shrike bird can basically be sentenced to death, and under such a tragic injury, even if Xu Yue does not continue to make up the knife, it will not be able to live.

This is the strongest arrow that Xu Yue shot at this stage after spending nearly 300 mana points, and there are very few existences within the first order that can be taken safely, and even in the second order, the lethality of this arrow cannot be underestimated.

As long as it is locked, under the double flight speed bonus of 'Hook Xia', the arrow speed brought by the combined blade is +8, and the lock is +8, even if the agility attribute of the shrike is as high as 44 points, it is too late to react.

The terrible sound of birdsong came from the mouth of the shrike, and the pain did not weaken it, but only aroused his ferocity, and the bird's eyes, covered in black horizontal stripes, stared at the equally mutilated corpse of the giant serpent, and the fierce light in his eyes was full of fierceness.

"Whew!"

Before the shrike could make a move, the faint sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded again, and another golden arrow flew from a distance, this arrow nailed the only remaining left wing of the shrike deep into the trunk of the tree, and then the arrow burst, and suddenly the flesh feathers flew sideways, and most of its wings were directly shattered.

This was followed by a second arrow, which was blocked by the shrike with the beak, which cracked and scattered into several black fragments.

In the third arrow, all the flesh of the head is flattened, revealing a white skull with cracks spreading.

At the fourth arrow, the shrike's head exploded, and the headless corpse lay on the monstrous giant tree filled with the corpses of his prey, blood gurgling, and a purple treasure chest fell.

[You killed the butcher bird * Shrike]

['Shrike' is an elite unit of the mysterious island, gaining 4.3% of the Source of the World, and now a total of 4.3% of the Source of the World]

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

At the same time that the park prompt sound sounded in Xu Yue's ears, a crisp applause also came from the top of the canopy.

Xu Yue, who was in the abdominal cavity of the giant snake, heard the applause, his face was a little shocked, and he suddenly raised his head to look at the source of the sound.

I saw a pale-faced male contractor standing on the branches of the canopy, and this contractor was in a few minutes, it should have been a dead corpse, but at this time, he moved freely, there was no abnormality, only there were more than ten blood holes left in the abdomen, and the black viscous liquid in the blood hole was surging, which was quickly filling the damage.

The contractor condescendingly looked down at Xu Yue in the distance, and after seeing that he had already attracted the attention of the other party, his hands that were still clapping were put down, and his bloodless lips were hooked, revealing a sickly smile.

"Good archery, among the trialists this time, your ranged attack power can be ranked at least within the top five."

"But a long-range contractor, it's not easy to survive alone on this mysterious island for ten days, the entourage behind you doesn't seem to be frank, right, how about cooperation, my name is Black Coffin, Lord Tanga Control Department."

Below, Xu Yue looked the other party's somewhat emaciated figure up and down, and finally stopped at the blood hole that was healing rapidly in the abdomen, although the other party's figure and the term Lord Tan really didn't match much, but the strong recovery speed seemed very convincing.

It's a pity that Xu Yue has not been interested in cooperation from beginning to end, his left hand holding the longbow is slightly tight, and a brilliant golden light arrow quickly emerges, although he did not open the bow to shoot, but the threat is already self-evident.

"I'm not interested, leave now, or I'll send you away."

"Don't be so angry, and in order of priority, I came to this place first."

"Leave? I haven't held you accountable for destroying my cultivation grounds. ”

Saying that, the black coffin didn't look at Xu Yue again, but moved his gaze to the mutilated shrike corpse below, and then he leaned over and inhaled, and suddenly countless black breaths poured out from the corpses hanging from the canopy, rushing into his nose, and more than 60% of these weird black breaths came from Yu Shrike.

"It's a pure and mellow pain, it's a pity that the host's house was killed by an uninvited guest, otherwise I would have wanted to stay for two more days."

With the inhalation of the black breath, the body of the black coffin trembled slightly, and his face flushed, and when the breath was completely absorbed, his pale complexion became ruddy, and even his emaciated figure became strong and powerful.

Xu Yue quietly watched the series of changes in the black coffin, and did not take this opportunity to attack, he had a hunch that it was never a good thing to attack rashly at this time.

The real world is not a film and television drama, there are no rules that cannot be interrupted during the transformation, since the other party dares to make such a transformation-like move in front of a hostile contractor, it is either a fool or something to rely on.

And fools often don't survive the survival trial.

At the top of the canopy, after the black aura was absorbed, the greatly changed black coffin straightened up, and when he looked at Xu Yue below again, a trace of imperceptible regret flashed in his eyes.

It's a pity, if the other party was waiting for the opportunity to do it just now, then he would have saved a lot of trouble next, but the other party's cautious and rational character is indeed a good choice for developing into teammates.

The regret in his eyes quickly faded into sincere appreciation, and he continued:

"That's sensible, I appreciate you."

"And you have a good way of inflicting pain, let's not talk about your teammates, are you interested in joining our Sect of Pain?"

"To inflict pain, to enjoy pain, to become pain in the end, we do not believe in gods, we only follow absolute pure suffering."

"Body, emotion, soul, we are sublimated in extreme pain, leaping on the brink of destruction."

"As long as you join us, I can help you improve your physique to the limit of the first order as quickly as possible, and I can swear to the Paradise Contract, and I will never lie to you, how about it?"

"Suffering is pleasure, and the suffering of all beings is boundless, and it is also endless happiness......"

When it came to the Cult of the God of Pain, the tone of the black coffin was obviously much more excited, his eyes were fanatical, his hands were raised high, and he looked like a religious fanatic.

Xu Yue looked indifferently at the black coffin preaching the teachings of this so-called Pain God Cult, with no intention of moving on his face, as for what the other party said about quickly improving his physique, he believed it, but the price to be paid behind it was absolutely unimaginable.

Cult of God? Hehe, the cult is pretty much the same.

"One last warning, leave!"

The indifferent voice spread through the canopy, interrupting the passionate preaching of the black coffin, and the frenzy on his face instantly subsided and became gloomy, and he hated it most when someone interrupted him during the mission, which was very rude.

"I was rejected again, I'm obviously so friendly and kind, and I'm even willing to waste time to let you recover your mana, why are you always so uninteresting?"

As he spoke, his whole body was covered with black gas, and his gloomy gaze focused on the longbow in Xu Yue's hand, and he smiled coldly.

"The first arrow used up most of your mana, so the next arrow saved more than the other, and it took four arrows to kill a dying beast."

"And that longbow relies on mana to condense arrows, the storage space is sealed, how much mana do you have now? How many arrows can you shoot? ”

"An archer without arrows, hehe!"

"Let's put it another way, join or die!"

"Whew!"

Before the words fell, a golden long arrow broke through the air, which also represented Xu Yue's decisive reply.

To be honest, he had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and if he hadn't been afraid that attacking too actively would arouse the suspicion of the other party, he would have done it a long time ago.
