Chapter 339 Red Sleeve Qiluo
"This is the phoenix feather."
Mu You took out three fiery red feathers from the ring, and gave one to Lin Xue and Shadow Wolf.
Three phoenix feathers, one of which was obtained by Mu You earlier and has never been used, and the other two just grew out of Huo Huo's body.
Not all the feathers on the phoenix have the effect of resurrection, only mature phoenix feathers can be revived, and the little phoenix was just born, after so many days, only these two qualified feathers appeared on his body, and he was coaxed by Mu Youlian yesterday It was taken down by cheating.
Now, one feather per person, in this place where resurrection is not possible, can be regarded as an extra layer of insurance for everyone, and this resurrection item has a public cooldown, which can only be triggered once a day at most, and it is useless if there are too many.
Immediately, Mu You took out the map fragment and looked at it.
The direction of the arrow has changed this time!
The arrow is pointing in a certain direction to their left, and is moving slightly.
This at least shows that the red sleeve has indeed come in here. As for the distance, it is difficult to tell from this map alone.
Mu You subconsciously summoned the war eagle, and wanted to send the war eagle to patrol in that direction.
However, the war eagle had just appeared, and before he could set off, Mu You suddenly found that the war eagle was in a strange state.
The war eagle was hanging in the air, but its figure was wobbly. It flapped its wings desperately, as if it wanted to stabilize itself, but it was continuously pulled up by a strange force. When it reached about 100 meters in the air, the war eagle suddenly issued a Wailing, the blood all over his body suddenly splashed, and in the blink of an eye, it exploded into a cloud of blood mist at high altitude, and disappeared.
"What's the situation?" The people below hurriedly avoided the dripping blood, and looked up into the sky in surprise, but they didn't see anything unusual, and the top of their heads was just the same black sky as in other places.
"You can see it with your heart's eye." Vivienne said at this moment.
Mu You hurriedly closed his eyes and meditated. After standing still for a few seconds, he opened his eyes.
The picture he saw immediately surprised him.
I saw countless illusory ghosts in the space around them. The upper body was a human-shaped ghost with a ghost face, and the lower half was filled with smoke, floating densely on the ground, above the head and in the air, almost occupying all the surrounding space.
Looking up, more than a hundred meters above the head, there are clusters of spatial turbulence invisible to the naked eye. Just now, the war eagle flew into the turbulent flow, and was instantly strangled by the spatial turbulence.
"What's this?"
What Mu You asked was about these illusory ghosts around him.
These things are not ordinary ghosts, because they can't be seen or touched, and they don't have any energy in their bodies. If they don't open their mind eyes, Mu You can't find their existence at all.
However, the appearance of this thing reminded him of the Silent Beast in the Red Rose Library.
"This is a soul-devouring beast." Vivian said: "You can understand that the souls that were once swallowed by the **** of death were all released after the death of the **** of death, forming these things."
"Soul-devouring beasts have a natural obsession with living beings. When they encounter living beings, they will follow them, wait for them to die, and then eat the souls of the dead."
Vivian also looked up and looked around, then shook her head and said: "But don't worry, Soul-devouring beasts are invisible and invisible. As long as we don't die, they can't touch us, but we can't attack them either."
"Shadow and invisible?"
Mu You was stunned when he heard the words: "Then what happened to Zhanying just now?"
The abnormality of the war eagle just now was obviously caused by something forcibly dragging it into the high-altitude turbulent flow before it died.
"What I just said was a general soul-devouring beast, but there is still a very small probability that a mutant soul-devouring beast will appear. This kind of soul-devouring beast is usually untouchable like other soul-devouring beasts, but they can be switched into entities at any time state, so as to gain the ability to attack real creatures..."
Before Vivienne finished speaking, Mu You suddenly looked at a certain place in the sky with his heart.
Among the countless gray ghosts there, there is a blood-red ghost, which is obviously bigger than other soul-devouring beasts, staring fiercely at the three people below, exuding a strong murderous aura.
This is obviously the mutated soul-devouring beast that Vivian was talking about, and it was also the culprit who killed the war eagle just now.
Looking at the expressions on the things, it was obvious that they wanted to jump over and kill them immediately, but there was some hesitation in their movements, as if they were afraid of something, and they kept hovering more than ten meters away from them, not daring to approach them.
Mu You carefully observed the behavior of this thing, and found that what it was always avoiding was not other things, but Lin Xue, to be precise, the sickle in her hand.
That is to say, what this thing is afraid of is the inheritance of Death God. If they hadn't been with Lin Xue after they came in, they might have been attacked by this thing long ago.
Thinking of this, Mu You took out his wand and tried to stay away from Lin Xue.
After walking about fifteen or sixteen meters away, the thing finally couldn't hold back, and rushed towards Muyou with its teeth and claws.
Mu You was not in a hurry, he waited until the opponent rushed forward and waved his paws towards his face before he made a sudden move. As expected, he grabbed the opponent's body and threw it heavily to the ground. The tip of the wand surged with lightning, and the raging red lightning struck the ghost directly.
Ghosting howled miserably, its size shrunk in an instant, and it became extremely weak. At the same time, it showed panic, and hurriedly wanted to fall into nothingness again.
It's a pity that Mu You would not let it escape. A holy light spell and a ghost fire explosion directly made the ghost disappear completely.
The ghost image disappeared, but the remaining energy in the body condensed into a fingernail-sized crystal in midair and fell to the ground.
Mu You picked it up and took a look.
【Requiem Stone: A special spar condensed from the energy released by the soul-devouring beast after death. After use, it can calm the soul and calm the nerves, and permanently increase the upper limit of magic by 10 points. 】
"Permanently increases mana..."
Mu You was taken aback.
One can only increase the upper limit of mana by 10 points, which is actually very little, but the problem is that there is no mention of the limit in the description.
This means, as long as this thing is continuously obtained, wouldn't it be possible to increase the magic power infinitely?
Of course, the Soul-devouring Beast is only found in this place, and the probability of this kind of mutant appearing is also very low. There are at least a few thousand ghosts on the scene, and only one mutant appears. Even if the soul stone itself is not restricted, its Sources are rather limited.
"Let's go first..." Mu You shook his head and put away the stone.
"Go this way." Lin Xue nodded, pointing to a direction, which was the final destination that the sickle guided her to.
Mu You glanced at the fragments of the map. This direction is quite different from the arrow pointing on the map, but the destinations on both sides are the same, and they will definitely end up in the same direction in the end.
While the next few people were on their way, Mu You was also constantly looking for the mutated soul-devouring beasts around him with his eyes. Every time he found one, he did the same: stay away from Lin Xue, lure the other party over, and then fight back.
It's a pity that the number of these things is really rare. After driving for more than two hours, they only encountered more than 120 mutants. Even if they were all fused, the magic limit would only increase by more than 1,000 points.
If Mu You had enough time, he wouldn't mind catching all the soul-devouring beasts in this space, but unfortunately not, they only have five short hours, once they leave, they probably won't have a chance to enter here again...
Closer to home, after two hours of rushing, they finally approached their destination.
Looking up, a huge mountain rises in front of the ground. The overall shape resembles a giant skull, which is particularly conspicuous on this barren plain.
However, Wangshan ran a dead horse. Although he saw the target, he still had a long way to go.
"The other party seems to have come over on his own initiative!" Mu You looked at Lin Xue and said.
He has experienced this situation twice before, and it must be another fragment that is coming straight towards him.
Obviously, the other party saw that they were not far away at this time, so they directly chose to kill them!
"How to deal with it?" Lin Xue asked, clenched the sickle slightly.
The opponent's move is obviously preparing for a decisive battle before approaching the core area.
"Well... you guys hide for a while, I'll lay an ambush and get to the bottom of it." Mu You thought for a while and said.
The opponent is coming straight to the fragments, the number of people is unknown, and it is best not to reveal too much information about the opponent without ascertaining the ability of the opponent.
Mu You is also relying on many means to save his life, so he plans to use the robot skin to test it first.
Mu You handed the pocket watch to Vivienne, and then watched the three of them go away, hiding under a hillock a few hundred meters away.
He himself switched to mecha skin, released a large number of sand spiders, and explored the surroundings along the ground.
Soon the sand spider sent back the image of the target: it was a woman in a red dress, with an obvious bulge in her lower abdomen, and the ID on the top of her head: Red Sleeve Qiluo, it seems that this is the real initial ID of the target.
Mu You asked the sand spider to continue investigating, but the woman seemed to come alone, and no one else was found around.
He didn't know how this woman acted alone, but it was good news for them.
Mu You directly used the camouflage form of the sweeping robot, but he deliberately disguised the appearance as a severely rusted state that was about to be scrapped, and his body was irregularly half buried in the soil, looking like a piece of garbage that had been abandoned for many years.
As for the fragments of the map, he casually threw them on the ground in front of him.
Through the sand spider's scouting perspective, the woman soon appeared nearby, holding a map in one hand and a chain in the other, rushing towards her.
However, when she approached within a hundred meters and saw the randomly discarded map fragments on the ground in front of her, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stopped in the distance, looking around vigilantly.
No way, this scene is too much like a trap!
The woman in red wandered around for half a circle in the distance, but still didn't see any problems, and the chain in her hand didn't respond, and told her that there were no creatures in front of her, which made her feel relieved.
But the woman in red still didn't choose to approach, but stood at a distance, throwing out the chain in her hand.
The chain was like a spirit snake, suddenly extending a length of 100 meters, heading straight for the debris on the ground, as if trying to hook the map back directly.
Mu You was waiting for this opportunity. The moment the chain came flying, he suddenly jumped up, and the left mechanical arm grabbed the chain.
The moment he touched the chain, Mu You deliberately let the spikes of the chain pass across his arm, leaving a scratch.
As a result, the body did not respond, nor did his soul have any abnormalities.
Mu You immediately had a bottom line.
Before he gave the pocket watch to Vivienne, just to let her help control the situation. If the chain can cause crippling damage to the mecha's skin, then go back immediately, and he will take other actions.
But it seems unnecessary now, Lin Xue's guess is right, the opponent's chain is only effective for biological flesh and blood, and it is an ordinary chain when facing a mechanical body, so Mu You doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
"Do it!"
Mu You yelled directly into the distance, and at the same time, the mechanical arm exerted force to pull the chain back with all its strength.
The strength of the opponent is not as strong as him, under this pull, the opponent will either let go, or he can only be pulled over by him.
Hong Xiu couldn't let go of such an important weapon, so he flew straight towards Mu You.
This sudden change made Hongxiu exclaim in surprise. He really didn't expect that the piece of scrap iron on the ground was transformed by a human being, but why did the chain not work on him?
Before he had time to figure this out, the two sides were already engaged in hand-to-hand fighting in the blink of an eye. The other hand of the red sleeve hurriedly took out a gleaming short knife from his waist, and slashed at the arms of the mecha, trying to break free.
However, what Mu You is loading now is not the chaos circuit, but the fighting circuit. It's fine if this woman uses magic, but it's a tragedy if she insists on close combat with him.
Mu You dodged, narrowly avoiding the knife, and then quickly slammed into him with an iron shoulder. With a big windmill on one arm, he slammed the opponent to the ground.
Immediately before the opponent got up, an iron foot stepped on his body and forced the opponent back. At the same time, two spiral barrels emerged on the arms, and the flames spewed out, and the two shotguns approached. Shoot at each other from a distance.
Hongxiu was extremely angry at this time, because half of the opponent's bullets were aimed at her stomach, she couldn't possibly protect her well, and her health dropped sharply.
And I don't know if the power of mother's love played a role. The woman broke out in this adversity. She folded her body and forcibly pulled the chain back, and kicked the mecha in front of her.
The woman was overjoyed and jumped up hastily to run away, but before she could take a step, she saw a grenade rolling down at her feet.
The next second, the repulsive grenade exploded, and the woman was thrown away by the huge repulsive force, and flew back uncontrollably, and the landing point happened to be the direction where the mecha was kicked away just now. All this is so similar to just now, she once again 'threw her arms' towards that weird mech man...
But this time the mecha didn't wait for her to land. In mid-air, a launching device appeared on her chest. The next moment, a burst of frost energy struck, and the woman felt cold all over her body, and her whole body was frozen into an ice lump. , rolled to the ground in embarrassment, unable to move.
During the entire process above, Mu You never stopped shooting bullets with both hands. When the woman landed on the ground, she dropped three Eva robots to send her off.
Amidst three more explosions, the woman's blood volume plummeted.
The freezing device can only last three seconds for creatures, but that's enough. When Mu You's crazy output, teammates in the distance have already rushed to support.
Hongxiu just broke through the ice, and the first to meet her were three sharp arrows.
The long-range attack from the shadow wolf, Hongxiu couldn't dodge, was shot through, and the blood volume continued to decrease.
At the same time, Lin Xue had already arrived, slashing from the side with a sickle.
Hongxiu saw the iron barrel image of the man holding the scythe, and then looked at the ID above his head, and immediately vomited blood: Do you want to be so targeted!
The other party seemed to have guessed the weakness of her weapon. Not only did she send a fleshless robot to ambush her, but she was also armed with an iron bucket. There was even an archer hidden in the distance. The location is not grasped.
The three people who came out all came for her characteristics, making her weapons completely ineffective, and she could only be beaten passively at this time.
"Mean!"
The woman cursed while struggling in the hail of bullets.
However, the three of them were busy exporting, and no one paid any attention to her.
The woman had no choice but to look at Lin Xue again: "Girl Red Scythe, today is the inheritance competition between the two of us, one-on-one if you have the ability!"
This is too straightforward, how could Lin Xue care about this? Silently speeding up the speed of the hand a little bit.
"Speed, speed!" Mu You was still yelling from the sidelines, the various mechanical weapons in his hands switching smoothly as if juggling, always maintaining the maximum power output.
Under this kind of targeted fire, the woman really had no power to resist. After struggling for a long time, she was still flattened from head to tail, and did not make any effective resistance until her blood volume was emptied.
However, when the woman died, the imagined scene of exploding things all over the ground did not appear. Only a dispensable prop fell out of the scene, and the woman herself directly became a cross buried in the ground.
