Novel Bin Chapter 292: Ninth Uncle: Soul Returning Talisman
Chapter 292: Ninth Uncle: Soul Returning Talisman
With the special ability of the “Water Demons”, it wasn’t difficult to fetch a body from the sea at all.
“It’s true that he was already dead!
“But who says that a dead man can’t testify?”
Ninth Uncle walked out from behind the natives with a book that had golden “Dragon” and “Tiger” sewed on the cover in his hand!
[Dragon and Tiger Golden Book]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Description: This is the ultimate treasure of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain. It can store the Daoist Talismans and improve their quality with the Dragon and Tiger Vibe!]
From this book, half a talisman that was spreading golden light was floating, and the other half was attached to the body of the native named “Yang Lu”.
[Soul Returning Talisman]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7]
[Rarity: Superior (Rare)]
[Description: This is an excellent Maoshan talisman that can temporarily bring back to life the soul of a dead body whose level is no higher than the talisman’s!]
[Note: The soul can’t be completely destroyed!]
It was an item containing Transcendent power that Ninth Uncle exchanged from the City of Humans. It was an artifact from the Dragon and Tiger Mountain and wasn’t completely compatible with Maoshan.
But since it was also from the Daoist School, he could in a way make use of the item.
“It’s Ninth Uncle!”
“Yes, Ninth Uncle can take someone back from the netherworld.”
“Although he’s dead, Ninth Uncle is still able to summon his soul to testify!”
After seeing Ninth Uncle, the players of the Twin Dragon Mount fort were greatly excited.
“His fatal wounds were the results of soundwave attacks. Do you mean to suggest that the Magma Monsters did that?”
A purple light flashed on Ji Ye’s finger, and the transparent Mirage Dragon Pearl showed up.
It projected a scene with a mirage in midair. The scene was exactly one where the man fought the Magma Monsters in the Musical House!
“Well...”
The Musical House players seemed even more frustrated.
“Hehe. He who has a mind to beat his stick will find his stick easily.
“We’re not the only settlement that can launch soundwave attacks!
“Besides, it’s just a body. Who can tell for sure if it’s a puppet that’s saying something insincere under the manipulation of someone?”
The middle-aged suona player gritted his teeth and raised his eyebrows, unwilling to give in.
“Who killed this man? Why did you kill him?”
Hardly had he said that when a voice came out of the Twin Dragon Mount fort.
Shang Yan, who was wearing a white medical uniform, stared at a Musical House player with a white glow emerging in her eyes.
[Heart Questioning (Talent Skill)]
[Level: Extraordinary]
[Rarity: Refined]
[Description: This skill can let the target confess the truth uncontrollably!]
“Boss Zhong did it himself. He ambushed the man with the ‘Shock’ note of his pipa and killed his brain. Then, Brother Yu threw him into the sea. He had to be killed because the natives deployed him to watch over the guqin ship. We couldn’t sail the ship away without killing him...”
A Musical House player who had eye contact with Shang Yan couldn’t help but speak out aloud.
“That’s really a shameless thing to do.”
“We can’t allow people like them to come to the Twin Dragon Island!”
“That’s right. How can anyone be so unscrupulous! I hope that Master can exile those human scumbags!”
“You’re wrong. Those people should all be killed!”
After the confession, the new players around all shouted in indignity.
Hearing what they said, the Musical House players became really panicked.
The middle-aged suona players looked awful too, because he was the one who dropped the body into the sea!
“Heh!” Boss Zhong, however, sneered and didn’t defend himself.
It was unnecessary. As a beta tester who failed the trial but managed to level up quickly by swindling the natives out of their resources, he had already realized that the leaders of the Twin Dragon Mount fort didn’t want to accept them at all.
It wasn’t just about setting up the natives!
From the perspective of the players, was what they did really unforgivable and disgusting?
If the new players who were scolding them had been faced with the same situation back in the Musical House, he was sure that many of them would’ve made the same decision.
Those people were just habitually criticizing other people on the moral high ground to show their decency.
But the public opinion of those newcomers couldn’t pose any influence on the one person on the Twin Dragon Island who really had the decision-making power.
“Are you sure?”
Ji Ye, however, frowned at this moment.
It was not because of the new players’ shouting, but because Chu Yin and the pipa woman made a surprising decision after a conversation.
“Yes, I wish we could take care of it on our own.”
Chu Yin nodded solemnly.
“Okay, I respect your decision!”
Ji Ye looked at Chu Yin and the pipa woman who seemed determined. He nodded in agreement.
Then, Ji Ye turned to the Musical House players and opened his mouth.
“By logic, we should seek justice for the members of our settlement. I have the right to take action and directly kill some of you...”
“You...”
He sounded quite arrogant.
However, the Musical House players didn’t retort although all of them had an awful look on their faces.
From the projection of the Mirage Dragon Pearl, they had seen how Ji Ye killed the Magma Monsters with the Dragon-Subduing Strike. Naturally, they realized the origins of the eight Flood Dragons on the sea.
They only managed to resist the dragons with everyone’s effort. Still, they used up the power in the musical instruments and lost their combat abilities.
It was safe to say that if Ji Ye were to take action, he could’ve killed them all by himself.
It was needless to mention the intimidating fully-armed soldiers as well as the machine guns and cannons on the two sides of the entrance!
“But the victims insisted on taking care of the matter independently, I respect their decision. You can have a pipa competition. Considering that you’re stronger, the two of them will fight you simultaneously. If you win, you can leave with your men and the guqin ship.”
Ji Ye looked at Boss Zhong who raised his eyebrows.
“If you fail, she will decide your fate...”
Then, he turned his eyes and looked at Pei Xingnu who was filled with hatred.
“Well... Zhong...”
Hearing what Ji Ye said, the Musical House players showed different reactions.
Some of them were hopeful, but some didn’t want their fate to be decided by someone else.
“Very well. I’m of a mind to find out what a great pipa player a settlement of bandits can raise.”
However, after Zhong Zhou picked up the pipa and laid his fingers on it, everybody shut their mouth.
It was because while Zhong Zhou might not be a decent man, he was definitely strong.
Also, because he had reached Extraordinary Rank-8, he still had the ability to fight even though he was slightly exhausted on the guqin ship, and he had to fight two on his own!
Chu Yin, as a player from the second batch, couldn’t have been as skilled at pipa as Zhong Zhou, who was selected in the first batch.
The pipa woman wasn’t as strong as Zhong Zhou in the first place. Her mental power was exhausted in the battle against the Magma Monsters, and she seemed to be in bad shape. Also, with her past with Boss Zhong and the others, she might not be able to make up her mind to kill them...
“I hope that you’re really determined to seek revenge and that you won’t prove yourself a burden to my friend.
“Otherwise, he will definitely die a miserable death if I take action in person!”
On the tip of Ji Ye’s finger, the glow that represented the healing talent appeared, and his voice was condensed and passed into the pipa woman’s ear in a stream.
