Chapter 7: Psychic
Downneath the stone gate is a deep and narrow path.
Heine's sense of direction, coupled with his familiarity with the buildings of the buried, soon realized that he had made a large circle along the foundations of the church to the door of the utility room that entered the college.
Before you even stepped into it, the smell of blood overflowed.
Heine pulls out the key and opens the door, which is like purgatory.
The severed limbs and corpses of the human beings were piled up on the ground into two hills, part flesh and one part bone.
Dirty clothes, hair, and blood on the ground were covered in a thick layer of black-brown paste, flies buzzed, and rats crawled paste.
"What the ......"
Teacher Xia was the first to exclaim.
"Is it so exciting? It's good that I'm a skeleton, otherwise I guess I would have to come out......"
"It's a flesh reinvention ritual." Catching the sheep added: "Offering three times as many bones and three times as much meat for the skinned twins in exchange for one being reborn is a prerequisite for becoming a lich." ”
"It's too professional, Brother Yang, do you still have to carry this at Scarlet Dawn?"
"No, I found out there was something wrong with the ritual right then. The wet weight of human bones only accounts for 5-10% of the human body, but the ratio of bone and flesh in this ritual is 1 to 1. ”
"Awesome, Brother Yang, he deserves to be a high-achieving student who hatches eggs!"
"Hatching eggs, this junior high school biology level is okay......"
Heine didn't stand still and listened, he opened the pupil of the dead and found the cutting board that faintly glowed with blood in the mist.
The chopping board was wicked, about ten centimeters thick, and it was covered with scars, but the blood rolled down like dew on a lotus leaf, and it was not stained at all.
The edge of the cutting board is a nailed iron cladd, with a groove in the center, and a pull ring on the back, which just serves as a shield handle.
Although the skeleton was not breathing, Heine felt the sheep behind him "hold his breath".
He was nervous.
Heine empathized fiercely.
Standing in front of Illidan's corpse was the same way.
He pulled out the chopping board, looked at it in surprise, and suddenly looked at his empty right hand, which was catching sheep.
Pretend to think......
Scales fall from one's eyes......
It's decided!
"Come on, you try this."
"Great!"
Catching the sheep excitedly took the cutting board.
The cutting board, which Heine could flip with two hands, fluttered like a cushion in his hand.
Before he could see through it, Heine picked up the heavy bone cleaver again.
"I almost forgot about this, it's Hunter's treasure, take it."
Catching the sheep excitedly threw down the sword and took the knife.
The length of the knife is about 40 centimeters, and the blade accounts for two-thirds of it, which is pitch black and narrow, and is faintly surrounded by blood.
"I'm complete!"
If it weren't for the fear of scaring Heine, he would have to perform a sword and shield in one, GP defense!
"Let's go."
Heine picked up his sword and beckoned the two to leave, throwing a Molotov cocktail before leaving.
If nothing else, this was a ritual for Principal Garay, and the wood and grease in the storage room were enough to burn it all.
……
Half an hour later, Heine completed a cursory search with two skeletons, but to no avail.
At this time, the academy was still far from becoming a dungeon, and except for the miserable situation in the storage room, everything else was no different from normal days.
But for the other two, it's a revisit, full of surprises.
“…… It was supposed to be a trap. ”
“…… This lab doesn't actually farm monsters. ”
“…… This and this, Brother Yang is the famous scene, the god of war in the bathroom! ”
“…… I'm always worried about a ghost coming out of the hallway. ”
Every word of the two of them is a warm memory of the game, but in Heine's mind it is an eerie scene.
The last stop is the principal's office.
The door was unlocked, and everything was not normal.
While the two were still quietly discussing whether the boss was going to be pulled out to fight, Heine pushed the door open.
A porcupine-like monster with a white bone spur on its back is scribbling.
In the vision of the eyes of the dead, the dead qi melted into his body, like a hundred rivers entering the sea.
This is an irreversible undead aberration, and I am still a step too late......
At the sound of the noise, it raised its head, revealing a terrifying face with protruding bones, vaguely visible of Principal Garay.
Heine almost freed the two of them from their restraints, but Garay's eyes were clear, and he stopped the thought.
It wasn't the first time Heine had seen the old man, and he remembered the look.
Gary squinted for a moment before he recognized the man in front of him.
"Heine? I didn't expect it to be you. ”
"I didn't expect you to be like this."
"Terrible, isn't it?"
Gary put down his pen and pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying.
"The ritual was interrupted, did you do it? What about Hunter? ”
"Dead."
Garay was stunned at first, and then sighed: "It's me who has lost my eyes, I thought your talent was all about making money." This is your skeleton...... Well? ”
His gaze froze at the silver-white ghost fire in the upper skeleton's eye sockets.
He got up suddenly, the bone spurs behind him resting on the ground, making a rustling sound.
Heine immediately untied part of his restraints and took a half-step back, hiding behind the undead.
"I have no ill will."
Garay waved his hand and held out his right hand.
"You should have this too, right?"
Heine's pupils shrank, and there was an imprint on the other party's wrist that was the same as his.
"It's ......"
"I guess you've also been cursed by Henbert, and everything about it is written in a suicide note, so see for yourself later, and now talk to me about your skeleton - while I'm still conscious."
The old man looked at him earnestly, and Heine hesitated before agreeing.
He briefly recounted the silver thread he saw and the summoning process, as well as the performance of the two along the way.
“…… After the battle with Old Hunter, I had a guess that my skeletons seemed to retain some sense of combat, especially when I let go of the restraints a little, and they performed better than the experienced mercenaries. ”
"Is that so......"
Gary was thoughtful.
At this time, the two of them had already exploded.
Teacher Xia: "Damn, I've been discovered!" ”
"Reasoning should have been discovered a long time ago, the necromancer's initial minions had a hard time killing a chicken...... We are obviously high-end goods. ”
"Looks like it's not going to turn bone powder, guess he's talking to the boss?"
"Ask if we count as SSRs, and then the two patients talk about curses, that's fine, you don't have to pretend to be stupid in the future."
"That's right."
Heine was pleased with the reactions of the two, and he had intended to gradually show that he was aware of and accepted that the undead were self-aware, but Garay gave him a good step.
The headmaster spoke at this point.
"There are not only wandering spirits in the underworld, but also a class of solid, resilient individuals, known as 'spirits', who retain some memories of their lives and have an intelligence similar to that of a human.
"Necromancers who can summon spirits often do not see geistes, also known as 'psychics', and the first Githil himself was a psychic, but the lineage has long been severed.
"These two skeletons of yours are obviously spirits, and you are also a psychic. The Soul Rebuke has locked your location, and you may continue to find trouble in the future. ”
Heine asked, "Will spirits have consciousness of their own?" Will you betray the psychic? ”
Garay shook his head: "I can't answer. ”
"What effect does that curse have on me?"
"It doesn't matter to you."
Heine breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that it doesn't matter, as for the man-made trouble, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, he is not worried.
Suddenly, Garay's body was stiff, trembling violently, and he let out a chaotic roar.
Before catching the sheep, he took a step to block Heine, and the cutting board in his hand was eager to try.
Teacher Xia also silently circled to Garay's side, and the dagger turned in the direction of his fingertips.
"Don't worry!"
Heine hurriedly stopped the two.
After more than ten seconds, Garay recovered slightly, and he raised his head, and a bloodthirsty red light appeared in his eyes at this time.
"I can't hold on for long......"
He grabbed the paper bag on the table and threw it to Heine.
"All the things I have to say are here, give them to old Severn.
"Then, let your skeleton kill me."
Heine was in awe.
He did not hesitate and decisively ordered:
"Do it!"
