Lord of Mysteries: Taiyi

Although the street where Kurt lives is remote, there are still quite a few homeless people lying on the street.

Sensing a spiritual warning, Kurt initiated "imparting" knowledge, instilling the "knowledge" that "it's dangerous here, there will be a shooting soon, you need to evacuate quickly, head east" into the minds of the homeless people who were awake and looking around. Some of the residents who were also awakened were willing to fulfill Kurt's "imparting" conditions if they wanted to know what had happened.

The effect was immediate. The homeless people, who had been somewhat dazed, instantly perked up and began to leave the neighborhood. Houses that had been lit up turned off their lights and closed their doors.

Kurt shook awake some of the people who were still asleep, and using his extraordinary abilities to impersonate a police officer, he quickly evacuated most of the people in the vicinity.

Then Kurt hid in the shadows of an alley and took out a sterling silver pendant.

"It's dangerous to stay here. It's dangerous to stay here."

After seven repetitions, the pendant begins to move clockwise with a moderate amplitude.

Damn, it really is coming this way... Kurt immediately deciphered the divination result: danger, and quite a danger.

It didn't seem to be a "vengeful spirit," but rather a "living corpse" or a "werewolf," Kurt silently pondered. He finally decided to stay and lay in wait, at least until the Night Watchers arrived. If it was just an Extraordinary being, Kurt could easily defeat it…

As he was thinking this, Kurt took out several talismans and held them in his hand, then began to wait quietly.

Sure enough, a moment later, a tall man emerged from the shadows across the street and began running toward Kurt.

This speed and power are about the same as my speed after activating God's Gift, and there are no wolf hairs... Kurt initially determined that the opponent was a Sequence Six "zombie". It seems that he has run out of zombies, or they are hindering the Night Watchers from behind... Fortunately, the people here were evacuated in advance.

Kurt infused his spirituality into a Sequence 5 "Stagnation" talisman, and then his eyes lit up as time around him slowed down.

He locked his gaze on the zombie's heart. "Freeze," Kurt uttered in ancient Hermes. Instantly, a chunk of flesh was torn from the zombie's heart, and blood gushed out.

He had frozen time for a moment near the zombie's heart, and with his high speed, he tore off a large chunk of flesh.

The man cried out in pain, forcibly stopping his forward momentum and rolling behind a low wall to the left, thus dodging the next three bullets.

The speed was too fast; it didn't tear his heart off. Kurt smacked his lips, deciding not to use "Divine Gift" because it might strengthen the undead opposite him, making him even more insane. He planned to throw a demigod-level "Entropy Stop" spell at it when a bronze door covered in mysterious patterns and filled with an indescribable smell appeared in front of the low wall.

Before Kurt could react, the door creaked open, shaking, revealing a crack.

From within the crevice, pairs of pale, transparent, or bloody arms covered in teeth and eyes reached out towards Kurt! They crossed the void and grabbed Kurt directly.

Holy crap... Kurt was startled by the sudden attack, and his casting of the spell was interrupted.

A dense array of indescribable eyes lurked in the darkness behind the door, silently watching Kurt. Then, those arms suddenly tightened, and bluish-black vines, each resembling a baby's face, bound Kurt's body. Because the injury wasn't sudden and massive, Kurt's unique ability didn't activate passively.

Feeling the chilling cold emanating from the depths of his soul and the exaggerated suction force, Kurt, whose feet had already left the ground, hurriedly reactivated the "Entropy Stop" spell.

"end."

The moment after a large amount of spiritual energy was poured in, the space within a 50-meter radius of Kut instantly froze.

The faint murmurs vanished instantly, and Kurt experienced a ringing in his ears; the world before his eyes lost its color.

The tentacles and vines also froze in mid-air. Because the spiritual connection of the zombies was also "stopped" in mid-air, their suppressive power on Kut decreased significantly.

The next moment, Kurt's body transformed into specks of moonlight, instantly appearing near the "living corpse." He then used another finishing touch spell.

The "Entropy Stop" spell also failed at this moment. The zombie was obviously not in time to react. He only saw the enemy who had been entangled by tentacles suddenly appear to his side.

"How is that possible?" There wasn't even a moment's transition in between.

Kurt pulled the trigger of his revolver, and a bullet with the properties of "armor-piercing and splitting wildly upon impact" struck the zombie directly in the forehead.

To Kurt's surprise, even at such close range, the bullet, enhanced with special technology, still couldn't penetrate his skull. The bullet, upon hitting the zombie's forehead, rapidly split, sprouting a cluster of copper spikes that pierced the zombie's eye sockets with a soft thud, causing his eyeballs to explode.

The bullet, which was supposed to blast the zombie's brains open, spread wildly across his face, causing the zombie to rush forward in pain and throw a punch straight at Kurt's face.

Kurt's vision slowed instantly, and intricate Möbius stripes flashed in his eyes. He now had ample time to activate his extraordinary abilities; his spirituality and mental speed were amplified several times over...

Then another unexpected event occurred: the zombie, which had been approaching at high speed, suddenly made a sharp turn and crashed headfirst into the wall beside it.

Time flowed back to normal, and the zombie crashed into the low wall, burying itself in the rubble, its face still covered in barbed "bullets".

Kurt, who was about to use another "Entropy Stop" spell, paused for a moment, quickly created distance, and raised a "Deconstruction" spell with one hand in a wary manner.

The zombie's movements began to stiffen as it struggled to stand, uttering two words in terror:

"Sharon!"

Then he grabbed his head, which was covered in copper spikes, with both hands, snapped it off, and fell straight to the ground. The "bullets" on his face stopped wriggling and splitting. They had grown to the cochlea of ​​the zombie and were about to enter his head.

After Kurt stopped supplying spiritual energy to the "eye-dotting" point, he looked at the extraordinary properties that were rapidly emerging with some surprise.

So Sharon's magical artifact came from here? Kurt recalled the plot from the original story. To avoid arousing suspicion, Kurt remained vigilant but did not attack again, waiting for the extraordinary properties to be fully released.

A short while later, a grayish-white heart with specks of icy blue was extracted.

A shadowy figure slowly emerged from the living corpse and transformed into a woman dressed in a black court dress. The woman had light gold hair, azure eyes, and exquisite features, but her face was unusually pale. She wore a small black soft hat.
