Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 686 The Headless Scholar
Da Bao didn't even need to sense the unclean spots in the mass grave; they were just too obvious.

He could easily sense Chu Danqing.

Following their senses, they quickly located a headless corpse.

The flesh and blood had rotted away, leaving only bare bones.

After Chu Danqing arrived, a sense of resentment and malice suddenly arose.

He was certain that it was the scholar watching him, along with Zheng San and the prefect at his feet.

It's obvious without even thinking that it's that vengeful ghost.

Before Chu Danqing could even speak, a gust of cold wind blew by.

Before long, the figure of the scholar with a pig's head slowly appeared.

The immense resentment emanating from him is mixed with divine power, enabling him to target not only humans but also gods.

The avatar is driven by divine power, and therefore as rigid as the gods.

However, as its true form, divine power is only one of its powers and will not affect its actions.

At the same time, this divine power should also be the key to controlling it.

The prefect intended to use it as a gift to fulfill his duties, so he certainly couldn't give Zhang Shanfu an uncontrollable vengeful ghost.

As for how to control it, Chu Danqing had no idea.

All he knew was that it had become a killing machine because its resentment had completely corrupted its reason.

Fortunately, he still had some reaction time; at least he could recognize his enemies.

As the eerie wind swept over them, Zheng San and the prefect shuddered and woke up.

Zheng San screamed in fright and tried to run away in a panic.

As a result, the pig-headed scholar caught up with him and gnawed off half of his body.

Upon seeing this, the prefect was also shocked: "It's Ni Zhihong? How did it become like this?!"

What's terrifying isn't that the ghosts eat people; that's just a common occurrence.

What truly terrified him was that the other party had grown a pig's head.

"It seems you didn't know about this change either." Chu Danqing hadn't expected the prefect to say this.

"Quick, kill it!" the prefect said, trying to escape, but Da Bao held him down.

The prefect struggled and screamed frantically, and in no time at all, Zheng San had been completely devoured.

The pig-headed scholar slowly turned around and walked towards him.

Then the prefect noticed that Da Bao had lifted him up.

"Wait, you can't kill me, I..." The prefect realized Da Bao's thoughts and struggled even more.

Chu Danqing was speechless; this official had indeed become muddle-headed.

In his nervousness, he forgot to mobilize his divine power and even forgot that he could call upon the gods.

It can only be said that the head constables and constables truly lived up to their reputation as a violent organization; their use of deities was indeed far superior to that of most officials.

However, the reason for this situation is that the gods have been too instrumentalized and that their status is problematic.

The prefect was simply thrown to the pig-headed scholar by Da Bao.

The pig-headed scholar opened his mouth and swallowed it whole.

He only chewed it twice before swallowing it.

After they finished eating, the immense resentment gradually subsided, appearing unusually solidified.

The original pig's head also became illusory, disappearing with a gust of wind.

Chu Danqing also realized that the other party was indeed the headless scholar.

The pig's head resembled a weapon, born from the boiling resentment.

After finishing his meal, the headless scholar stood quietly beside his own corpse.

Chu Danqing also indicated that the task was completed.

[Mission Completed, You Gain: Paradise Points x 20000, Attribute Points +5]

The resentment subsided, and the reward was credited to the account.

The difficulty isn't high; the real challenge lies in capturing Zheng San and the prefect alive and sending them to the mass grave.

But as long as these actions can evade the gods, the difficulty will decrease dramatically.

However, Chu Danqing did not leave immediately, but instead looked the headless scholar up and down.

He wanted to determine whether the other party would continue to cause harm.

The main resentment has subsided, but it hasn't disappeared.

"We still have to kill them." Chu Danqing sighed. "This thing has no brains."

If, like the painted skin demon, it possessed a complete self-awareness, Chu Danqing could use the basic skill of domination to discern the other party's thoughts.

Perhaps because his head was shattered when he died, this headless scholar was only driven by resentment.

Now that the resentment has subsided, things are finally peaceful.

But if the resentment in the mass grave is aroused again in a few days, the resentment on its body will boil over again.

Then, it's likely that headless scholars will start wandering around Huangye City again.

Moreover, due to divine power, it will re-evolve into a pig's head and even more features.

Keeping it around will most likely be a huge disaster.

"Kill him." After Chu Danqing finished speaking, Da Bao immediately took action.

Chu Danqing was helping the scholar and the woman named Jinniang to avenge themselves, not helping the headless scholar.

The painted skin demon shows that humans and ghosts are not the same entity.

Ghosts don't even acknowledge that they were once human.

Da Bao immediately activated his Tear Claws + Slaughter Form, and with the help of the Blood Chain of Kinslaying, he tore the headless scholar apart in a single move.

tear
The immense resentment emanating from the headless scholar surged once more, only to be countered by Da Bao's bloodlust and oppressive power.

This made Chu Danqing's heart sink: 'Oh no, the treasure chest's quality is going to be downgraded?!'

The headless scholar has become weaker.

I don't know if it's because the fake body was killed before or because the pig's head is gone.

If it's the former, then the quality of the treasure chest won't drop. But if it's the latter, then there's nothing that can be done.

Chu Danqing has to complete the mission.

However, upon further reflection, Chu Danqing concluded that it was the former, since the total amount of resentment from the other party had not changed.

As for why it couldn't beat Da Bao, it's because Da Bao was stronger than it from the very beginning.

Do you really think that the Great Prowess equipment is just for show?

"Da Bao, wait a minute and kill him." Chu Danqing shouted as he released the Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness: "It's good to exchange some health points."

Chu Danqing shouted.

The previous characters like the Painted Skin Demon, the Oil-Faced Man, and the Constable were really inappropriate.

However, Green Sprout Garden seeks quick results and cannot find a good opportunity.

This headless scholar would be perfect.

Not only was it located in a mass grave, but its strength was also significantly greater than that of Chu Danqing alone.

That would be perfect.

Upon hearing Chu Danqing's words, Da Bao's strength surged once again due to the Pulao Dragon Soul.

The headless scholar, who had been able to put up a little resistance, was immediately rolled into a ball by Da Bao and forcibly pressed into the sea of ​​suffering.

The headless scholar tried to struggle, but no matter how hard it tried, it could not break free.

The karmic ghost remained silent as it watched this scene.

They only do this much work, and yet people still try to steal it from them.

After struggling in the sea of ​​suffering for about ten minutes, the headless scholar died completely.

Drowning is secondary; we still need Da Bao's help.

Otherwise, if one were to truly drown in the sea of ​​suffering, then one would need the help of karmic ghosts who are drowning in suffering.

At least he's dead.

Chu Danqing also received the notification from the amusement park very smoothly.

[Your health limit +15000]

"Tsk, so little." Chu Danqing said, withdrawing from the Sea of ​​Bitterness.

You should know that in the last invasion, that giant worm provided him with a full 5 health points.

But this headless scholar only had 15,000.

But then I thought, that big worm was a cultivated medicine, so its effects must be better than the headless scholar's.

Moreover, this headless scholar is a ghost, so his blood content is low.

If the sea of ​​suffering transforms into malevolent energy or evil spirits, then its capacity for resentment could probably be transformed into a considerable amount.

What is converted is health points, so the percentage is definitely lower.

As his maximum health increased, Chu Danqing smacked his lips.

"It's great, but there's something not quite right," Chu Danqing muttered.

My mana dropped by 99% in an instant, and then it was replenished in a flash.

This feeling is not good, and it's also very harmful to the body.

It's like instantly drawing all the blood out of your body and then instantly replacing it with fresh blood.

It would be a lie to say it won't harm your health.

Therefore, Chu Danqing always used the Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness as a trump card, rather than a regular skill.

Because it's a professional skill, its effect will increase as Chu Danqing's strength improves, which also means that the cost will not decrease.

If this were a regular skill, the effect would be related to its quality and could not be upgraded, while the cost would decrease as strength increases.

It's not impossible for them to be eliminated.

Chu Danqing muttered something to herself, then watched as Da Bao returned carrying a treasure chest.

Brilliant quality.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the headless scholar's weakness was not due to the loss of his pig's head, but rather, as he had guessed, due to the death of his avatar.
-
"The smells have been a bit mixed lately." A red-haired monster with a rat's head and a human body stood in the river god's temple, sniffing around it. There were four similar rat monsters busy around it.

“Besides Flower Butterfly, there are two other people,” another green-haired rat demon said.

They were monsters kept in the Xuanlou under the command of the Prince of Fanyang, sent to investigate the death of Hua Die.

Of course, the most important thing is to find the precious pearl.

A rat demon sniffed outside the temple and said, "We found the flower butterfly, and there's a scent buried down here."

Upon hearing this, the four rat demons rushed over and began digging with their sharp claws.

The mummified body was dug out, but the flower butterfly was not.

"It's all mixed up with the mud, boss, what do we do?" the white-furred mouse asked.

The leading black-haired rat demon leaned closer for a closer look: "The pearl isn't here."

"It seems it was taken by another scent. Let's give chase!"

However, the yellow-haired rat demon hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, look at the clothes of this dried corpse. It belongs to a constable."

"If this smell can kill him, then we probably are."

The black-haired rat demon fell silent upon hearing this.

Then he said, "It's alright, we won't confront them head-on, we'll just find a way to force him to his death."

"But we need to find the right people first."

As he spoke, the black-haired rat demon picked up a map, examined it, and then discerned the scent and direction.

"As expected, they went to Huangye City. I wonder if they can catch up with them."

It was worried that by the time its five rats arrived, they would have already set off again, which would have been troublesome.

The remaining four rats wanted to leave, but seeing their eldest brother's attitude, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

If they dare to refuse, they will be bitten to death on the spot.

Even if they manage to escape, they will not be spared if they fail to complete their mission.
