Chapter 238 Summoning the faceless shadow!
"It seems that it is not just a simple scream, it contains weak mental damage, which is barely comparable to a second-class soul witchcraft!"
Fortunately, with the soul strength of the third-class necromancer apprentice, and the earth knight With a weak physique, it took only two or three seconds for Yihua to recover from the screaming impact of the shadow of the deceased.
"It seems that the increase in strange power in the secret world has also given the Shadow of the Dead new abilities!"
Seeing a group of Illuminati apprentices a hundred meters behind them, they seemed not to be affected by the screams of the Death of the Shadow of the Dead. , Yihua said clearly in his heart:
"Next, when dealing with the shadow of the deceased, you must keep your distance as much as possible."
At the same time, nearly a hundred apprentices a hundred meters behind him also reacted.
Due to the long distance, there are hundreds of meters between him and the dissipated shadow of the deceased.
Although a group of Illuminati apprentices heard the screams of the deceased's shadow as it dissipated, they were not affected by it.
Therefore, everyone focused their attention on Yihua killing the shadow of the deceased with one sword.
"The speed of that ghost thing is too terrifying! If it were me, I wouldn't be able to react at all. Fortunately, I have the protection of the Vice President." "The pale-faced
shadow of the deceased who just attacked us seems to be the current one. A genius second-class apprentice who ranked among the top 100 in the academy competition!"
"Could it be that the apprentice who died in the secret world was resurrected by the strange power mentioned by the vice-president and came to claim his life?" The
Illuminati apprentices present, Everyone was talking about everything that had happened before.
At this time, some people also noticed the four male and female apprentices who had woken up from dizziness and stood up one after another. They were the male and female apprentices who had followed the recently deceased "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
"Why did those apprentices faint? Could it be that the piercing scream that the ghost made when he died just now has the effect of affecting the soul?" "But why does the
Vice President seem not to be affected?" "
You are Are you an idiot? How can the vice-president be compared to those apprentices!"
Ignoring the comments of a group of Illuminati apprentices hundreds of meters away, Yihua stepped forward when he saw the four surviving people regaining consciousness.
"Brother Tucker..."
The four of them looked at the unrecognizable mess on the grass beside them, mixed with broken bones, eyeballs and internal organs, and their faces showed an expression of sadness that could not be concealed.
Seeing Yi Hua coming forward, the young second-class apprentice with blond hair glanced at the gray-haired girl, the brown-haired young woman beside him who were in mourning, and another sturdy young man with a Chinese character face.
Without thinking much, he faced Yihua decisively and said in a low voice:
"Sorry, we misunderstood you earlier. Thank you for saving us. It's a pity that Brother Tucker..."
Compared to mortals, wizard apprentices are more rational.
The blond young man knew in his heart that Yihua had nothing to do with the others, and even if Yihua did not save the others, there would be no problem.
Therefore, the blond young man did not resent Yihua because he did not have time to save "Shadow Thorn" Tucker, but felt grateful to Yihua.
Yi Hua did not respond to the blond young man's thanks on the spot. Instead, he glanced back and forth at the four people in front of him.
Through his soul power, Yihua stared briefly and found that the karma auras of the four people in front of him were all light white.
This means that each of the four second-class apprentices who follow "Shadow Thorn" Tucker has a positive merit value.
The amount of merit and the positive and negative are the criteria by which Yihua judges whether he can join the Illuminati.
An apprentice with a negative merit value does not provide Yihua with as much merit as if he killed the opponent.
Yihua, who knew that the Illuminati lacked second-class apprentices, glanced at it and said immediately:
"Nothing, I'll give you a few leeks. No, apprentices have two choices. One, join our Illuminati, and then follow us. I will protect you under the hands of those 'Shadows of the Dead'." "
Second, hand over most of your points. You can stay here temporarily. After the daylight period of the secret world is over, you can choose to leave on your own. ."
Since the death of the apprentice will enhance the strength of the strange forces in the secret world, neither option allows the four of them to leave immediately and face the shadow of the deceased.
The four second-class apprentices, led by the blond young man for the time being, suddenly looked solemn when they heard the choice given by Yi Hua.
The four of them had just seen Yi Hua, with almost crushing strength, destroying the shadow of the dead that they could not compete with with one sword.
The four apprentices who had followed "Shadow Thorn" Tucker and were rescued by Yi Hua knew the current dangerous situation and made a decision on the spot without much hesitation.
"Let's choose the first option!"
"Okay, sign them and come with me."
Seeing that the four agreed, Yihua casually threw out four template contracts from the Illuminati.
"Merit? What is that?"
"Huh? You can get merit points by 'helping' others, even if the person being helped is not a wizard apprentice, but just a mortal? This thing called 'merit points' can be obtained so easily ?"
"After joining the Illuminati, we can use this easily obtained 'merit value' to directly exchange for second-class scrolls? I had heard about this before. At that time, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it. It's true!"
Compared to other forces in the academy, the Illuminati's contract is extremely loose.
It can even be said that there are almost no restrictions except that the apprentices in the guild cannot harm each other.
Among them, the stipulation that the second-class light therapy scroll could be redeemed by collecting merits made the four people look shocked.
Regarding the merit points, in order to increase the attraction to other apprentices, Yihua did not set any "performance" requirements.
After all, the attraction of being able to exchange for tangible second-class light therapy scrolls through easy-to-obtain, illusory merit points is enough for apprentices who join the Illuminati to work hard to collect merit points day and night.
If we add the restriction that each person must collect a certain amount of merit within a specified time, it is completely unnecessary.
Now that time was running out, Yihua did not take the time to give a detailed explanation to the four people.
Seeing that Yihua did not explain, he realized that time was running out at this moment, and new shadows of the dead would appear and attack everyone at any time.
The four people took a quick glance and found that there were no loopholes in the contract. The four people, who had not joined other forces before, immediately signed the contract and received the four Illuminati silver cross badges casually thrown by Yi Hua.
Seeing that the four people successfully joined the Illuminati, Yihua turned around and glanced at a token embedded in the flesh and blood of the dead "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
With "Shadow Thorn" Tucker's ranking of thirty-three in the standings, the points contained in the token will now be no less than a thousand points.
The translucent tentacles of fear extend through the activated third-class half-dead witch body.
Due to the characteristics of the fear tentacles, part of the form will only appear briefly when in contact with other things.
The blond young man and others around him did not notice the existence of the fear tentacles from the brief contact between the tip of the fear tentacles and the token in the minced meat on the ground.
Under the surprised gazes of several apprentices around him, Yihua took the token thrown to him by the fear tentacle with his hand.
After simply erasing the blood stains, Yihua extended his perception to the token left by "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
After a while, Yi Hua reacted with a hint of undetectable joy.
"Sure enough, there are more than a thousand points in the token of 'Shadow Thorn' Tucker!"
Just when he wanted to transfer the points in the token immediately, Yihua frowned and thought of another thing:
"I don't know. How many apprentices are left in the secret world now..."
Thinking of this, Yihua decisively called up the real-time scoreboard in the secret world -
[Apprentice Exam Real-time Scoreboard]
[First Place - Mirko Fabuti ——Currently held points: 10682 points]
[Second place——Rey Felsis——Currently held points: 8038 points]
[Third place——Enzo Rutland——Currently held Points: 7775 points]
...
[Fifth place - Iwa Fersis - currently holds points: 5848 points]
...
[Third thousand eight hundred and eighty-second place... currently holds points: 13 Click]
Seeing the number of apprentices in front of him, which was only less than a thousand fewer than before, Yihua frowned, and doubts suddenly came to his mind:
"Huh? The number of apprentices displayed on the real-time standings does not seem to have changed from before. Big...?"
Just when Yihua was a little surprised by the number of apprentices.
He suddenly remembered the apprentices who died under the strange power of the secret world, unless there were other apprentices around.
Otherwise, the token it carries will most likely remain in place.
The points contained therein are still retained in the token and have not been transferred by others.
The real-time standings can only determine the current points in the corresponding apprentice token based on the points in the token.
It is impossible to directly spy on the life and death of the apprentice holding the corresponding token.
Just like the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker who just died, because his points have not been transferred by Yihua, he is still ranked 33rd in the real-time standings.
Realizing this, Yihua shook his head.
"It seems that the information obtained from the real-time standings is no longer useful for reference."
Next, Yihua did not waste time and quickly transferred the dead "Shadow Thorn" Tucker under the complicated eyes of the four apprentices. Points in tokens.
Just as Yihua was about to leave, he accidentally caught a glimpse of fleeting jet-black energy from the unrecognizable, meat-like corpse of "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
"Huh?"
Seeing this, Yihua's right foot that he just took suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Yihua, who realized the strangeness, immediately stepped forward and looked over the body of "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
After checking for a moment, Yihua found no trace of the jet-black energy he had glimpsed earlier on the shattered body of "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.
"Did you see it wrong?"
Yihua stood up and stood still, thinking subconsciously.
But whether the jet-black energy he saw before was real or just his hallucination, Yihua still firmly remembered the scene he saw before.
He decided that when he encountered the death of his apprentice again, he would take a closer look at the body.
"Fair... no, Mr. Vice President, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Yihua suddenly turning over Brother Tucker's body with a thoughtful expression, one of the four people who had just joined the Illuminati , the leading blond young man asked doubtfully.
"No, it's nothing. Come with me."
Yihua shook his head and did not explain too much to the others.
Next, Yihua led four people and returned as quickly as possible to a group of Illuminati apprentices hundreds of meters away.
After transferring the points in "Shadowthorn" Tucker's token, the points in Yihua's token have exceeded 7,000 points, ranking fourth in the real-time standings, second only to Melkor. Rey and Enzo.
Before Yihua could issue a new order, an Illuminati apprentice suddenly pointed to a distance several hundred meters away and exclaimed:
"Mr. Vice President, over there!"
Hearing the apprentice's exclamation, All the apprentices present looked in the direction pointed by the Illuminati apprentice one after another.
The location where everyone is now is located in the middle of a forest in the secret world, covering an open area of several hundred meters in radius.
At some unknown moment, another ghostly figure that was very similar to the one who had just been killed by Yihua, with a pale face and tears of blood in its eyes, appeared hundreds of meters away from the crowd, at the edge of the open space and the forest.
Judging from the fact that it is somewhat different from the Shadow of the Dead that was previously killed by Yi Hua, but the body is also blurred, covered with scars, and the skin is swollen like a dead person, this is undoubtedly a brand new Shadow of the Dead.
Before Yihua could react, the blond young man who had just joined the Illuminati shrank his pupils and said directly:
"That guy is the bastard who chased us before and killed several of our companions!"
The other three companions of the blond young man, Seeing the familiar figures in the distance, their eyes showed the fire of hatred that wanted to eat them alive.
However, before anyone could say anything, two more shadows of the dead with the same pale white translucent form, but different appearances, appeared next to the first shadow of the dead.
The two appeared to be a young man with black hair and a girl with long orange hair.
But at this moment, under the influence of the strange power of the secret world, the two people turned into the shadows of the dead. Their bodies were covered with centipede-like dark red scars, and their bodies were covered with death energy. They did not look like living people at all.
Previously, just one shadow of the dead had forced the blond young man and others to flee.
Now, three of them appeared at the same time!
The blond young man was about to speak when the gray-haired young apprentice beside him trembled in the eyes and said with fear on his face:
"Wait a minute, the one who appears next to that guy... is Karl!"
"And Sally!"
At this moment, Another shadow of the deceased, covered in blood, like a humanoid monster made up of countless pieces of flesh stitched together, suddenly appeared next to several shadows of the deceased.
Next to Yi Hua, the four people who had just joined the Illuminati revealed their horrified eyes after barely making out the face of the suture monster with collapsed bones.
"Look at that face, it's Brother Tucker!"
"This!"
"Damn it! Damn it! It's so weird! Do you want us to be enemies of our former partners!"
Regarding the strange power in the secret world and the behavior of blaspheming the dead classmates, the blond The faces of the four young people showed pain and hatred.
However, in today's era where night and day are confused, a large number of apprentices have died in the secret world, turning into food for strange powers, and strange powers can launch attacks without restraint.
The attacks by strange forces on the apprentices in the secret world are obviously far more than that.
