Chapter 656: The beam of light reappears
Skeleton once said that the resources that can be obtained here will be what they need most at the moment.
Now it seems that this sentence is indeed correct.
Ling Chen followed the instinctive instructions from the Soul Fire at this time, holding the twisted seed and placing it close to his chest.
That is where the tattoo formed from the Book of Contract is, which is equivalent to the place where various spells are placed.
He felt that as the distortion seed approached, most of the spells placed on the blank page began to vibrate slightly.
It seems that as long as the seed of distortion is absorbed, the original rigid demand can be reversed, the connection between the natal cursed object and the ordinary cursed object can be instantly established, and the process of devouring the ability can be carried out.
However, when the twisted seed came close to the chest, countless tentacles were violently waved from above, preventing the absorption.
Seeing Ling Chen and Michael's attempts, Skeleton smiled and said:
"The commission must be completed before these tentacles will disappear completely and will no longer hinder the absorption of the seeds of distortion."
Hearing this, Ling Chen retracted his hand, his tentacles immediately retracted, and the twisted seed returned to normal.
Then, he slowly lowered his head, deliberately not letting others see his expression at this time.
A trace of disappointment suddenly flashed across his eyes.
When the Seed of Distortion came close to his chest, there was only one spell that didn't react at all, and that was the Solid Rock.
He had originally chosen this cursed item a long time ago, and the previous assimilation process was already 99% complete.
According to the description of the skeleton and the book of contract, the special nature of the twisted seed should be able to cause any cursed object to be instantly swallowed by the original cursed object.
However,
Ling Chen did not expect that even a strange treasure like the Twisted Seed would not be able to loosen the last bit of progress.
Ling Chen frowned and thought to himself:
"It seems that if you want to be promoted smoothly, I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
However, no one has ever walked the road of dual natal curses before, so it is impossible to learn from other people's promotion methods.
Such a discovery made his interest in the twisted seeds suddenly drop a lot.
Of course, since this thing seems to be able to be brought back to the real world, even if he can't use it himself, he can still trade it with others.
No matter what, completing the commission and taking control of it will eventually bring certain benefits, so you won't want to give up.
While Ling Chen was thinking, the black sphere in mid-air suddenly underwent another change.
Not far in front of the sphere, a scene with a hint of illusion suddenly condensed.
Then there are the images of three people, two men and one woman. The images 100% restore the appearance, and every detail can be seen at a 360-degree view.
Immediately afterwards, the surface of the black sphere vibrated with ripples, and a voice that was neither male nor female reached Ling Chen's ears at the same time.
"Kill any one of them and come back here again to release the restrictions of the twisted seed."
Michael raised his head, looked at the black sphere and said:
"Who are you? Why did you kill these three people?"
The black sphere did not answer the question and continued to make a sound:
"The twisted seed has a tracking function to help you find the traces of these three people."
"Damn it! I'm asking you questions."
"If you want to obtain the Seed of Distortion, you only need to complete the commission. There is no need to know these things."
Michael's face froze when he was pushed back by a word, but thinking of the pressure that came upon him when he broke into the observatory, he ultimately made no further move.
At this time, the skeleton clapped his hands and suddenly said:
"Don't worry, the black sphere needs us to complete its commission. If its behavior is not too outrageous, it will not attack us."
Michael said:
"What if we attack it actively?"
"Haha, I don't know either, but you can try?"
Michael sneered, crossed his arms and stopped talking.
Ling Chen suddenly asked:
"How can this be considered as not out of line? Have you tried it before?"
The skeleton replied:
"I don't dare to attack. But I once used a reconnaissance ability, and it didn't respond at the time. It didn't seem to care."
"What information did you get?"
"There's only one name. Oh, no, it's half a name. Everything else is a question mark."
Ling Chen frowned, wanting to try it himself, but he had to be wary that the skeleton was deliberately digging a hole.
After all, the three parties have not actually reached a real agreement. They are more wary of each other than trust.
At this time, Michael exhaled a breath and suddenly stepped forward.
Ling Chen had been wary of this guy, and when he saw him walking out, his eyes suddenly froze.
However, he soon realized that nothing would happen to him.
There was a hint of momentum rising from Michael's body. However, his fighting spirit was locked on the skeleton.
The skeleton was stunned for a moment, stared at Michael, and said coldly:
"You have to think clearly. Everyone's strength here is suppressed, and there is an unknown existence above our heads. This is not a good time."
"I understand everything you said..." Michael looked at the skeleton and said:
"But I know better that after you leave and find a quiet place, you will definitely absorb the twisted seed as soon as possible. If you want to snatch it by then, it will be too late."
Ling Chen, who was staying away from the incident, slightly raised the corners of his mouth after hearing this, but he understood Michael's approach very well.
Is there any shortcut in the world that can be done faster than robbing someone else of the fruits of their labor?
If it weren't for the fact that the twisted seed couldn't solve his big problem, he would probably work with Michael to snatch it.
Michael noticed Ling Chen's gaze and revealed a sinister smile on his face:
"What do you think? How about we kill a few of them together and have another duel to decide who gets the twisted seed."
Ling Chen took a few steps back, waved his hands and said:
"I'm not too sure, so don't count me out."
While talking, Ling Chen had already retreated to a corner of the observation room, making it clear that he did not want to interfere.
The skeleton pointed at Ling Chen, looked at Michael and said:
"Aren't you afraid that both sides will be injured, and that he will take advantage of you?"
Michael's aura had completely exploded, and he stared at the skeleton fiercely.
"I'm never afraid of sneak attacks. Even if he does, he will only turn into a cold corpse in the end."
Skeleton sighed, and immediately understood what kind of person the Michael in front of him was. If he continued talking, it would just be a waste of saliva.
But what is strange is that until now, the skeleton has not put on a defensive posture. Not only himself, but also his companions.
The feeling he gives people can be described in four words:
Be patient and fearless.
Could it be that Skeleton is really so confident that Michael cannot threaten him?
The next second,
Ling Chen's doubts were finally fully answered.
I saw the black sphere vibrating violently, slender tentacles flying out from the surface, and the entire body emitting an astonishing high temperature.
Ling Chen and Michael's expressions changed at the same time, only the skeletons were laughing wildly.
"It will teleport us to the area near the target person. Are you thinking of taking action now? It's too late, hahaha..."
The black sphere suddenly burst into a dazzling light.
The ceiling of the observation room is opened, and the light shines towards the astronomical telescope, then passes through the gap in the ceiling and is directly reflected into the sky, forming a pillar of light rising into the sky.
Ling Chen looked at the black sphere.
"Originally, this is how the light beam came. The skeleton has obviously experienced it once before. No wonder it doesn't care about Michael's actions."
