They say itās a protective talisman that can detect curse power, thanking Lu Wenwu for helping him win effortlessly in the last instance.
Itās not just this little octopus tentacle.
The cross token given by the rigid and doctrinal Holy Knight Aiken is also slightly heating up at this moment.
It has sensed the fluctuation of evil power against the light and is now issuing crazy warnings.
The Eye of Insight swept over, and Lu Wenwu solidified the void, slowly speaking: "Isnāt it delightful to have visitors from afar? You seem to value me highly."
The sky rippled like a lakeās surface, sending out water-like ripples.
Three figures emerged from the void, slowly revealing their forms.
The person on the left is of medium build, cloaked entirely in a black wizardās hooded robe, wearing a bird-beak mask like a medieval doctor.
[Plague Apostle Nimancha Singh (A-)]:125 0000/125 0000
[Current State]: Demon Godās Blessing, Demon Godās Curse, Plague Body, Calamity Body, Power Brewing, Killing Intent Gathering, Fear
The person on the right is evidently a dwarf.
Besides, he looks completely different from the others, as if walking out from a steampunk set.
Except for the right arm, which retains more than 50% flesh and blood, the other three limbs have been entirely replaced by metal prosthetics.
Even half of the skull has been transformed with mechanical parts, with eyes like the electronic red pupils of the God of Infinite Mechanical Dragons.
[Magic Apostle Kuriyama Bancho (A)]:46 0000/46 0000
[Current State]: Demon Godās Blessing, Demon Godās Curse, Celestial Deformed Body, Curse Protection, Silent Spellcasting, Killing Intent Gathering, Cautious
Finally, the person in the center, who seems utterly inconspicuous, resembles an ordinary zombie, with a sickly young appearance as if on the brink of death.
He gazes at Lu Wenwu with intense hatred and loathing, so strong itās nearly tangible.
[Puppet Apostle Rong Shiheng / Puppet Apostle Split Body (A-)]:25 0000/???
[Current State]: Demon Godās Blessing, Demon Godās Curse, Soul Split, Power Extension, Killing Intent Gathering, Fury, Fear, Terror
Split Body?
Soul Split?
Lu Wenwu looked at the Puppet Apostle in the center, pondering internally.
Is it both the true body and not the true body?
Perhaps itās similar to Voldemort, a case where oneās soul has been divided into many parts.
But each part of the Puppet Apostleās soul can act like an avatar and possesses the power of the true body.
This is indeed intriguing.
Feeling Lu Wenwuās gaze, the central Puppet Apostle felt his fury intensifying.
But he forcibly suppressed it, speaking up: "Violent Dragon, you claim to be the new apostle. You killed that war kid and the foolish woman of life and slaughtered a tenth of my people. Enough already? You have proved your power and are qualified to become one of us."
"Become one of you?" Lu Wenwu asked nonchalantly, "Whatās the benefit?"
The Puppet Apostle was clearly taken aback but patiently explained: "All of war and lifeās territory belongs to you; you can be Emperor, do as you please, and no one will interfere."
Lu Wenwu questioned, "But canāt I already do as I please now? Whatās the difference?"
Puppet Apostle: "..."
Damn, Iām stumped.
Seeing the atmosphere turn awkward for a moment, the Plague Apostle added: "You can enjoy the pleasure of ruling, isnāt that great? Like me, you can set different rules for the people and watch them struggle to survive under your regulations; isnāt that fascinating?"
Lu Wenwu gave him a disdainful glance, switching to another language, dismissively saying: "Boring, is your impoverished and unremarkable life only about pursuing such simplistic, repulsive low-brow interests? If itās just that, Iām ashamed to associate with you, itās too embarrassing."
Plague Apostle: "..."
Iām fm spinning fuck you on the spot!
This guyās mouth, how can it be so infuriating!
The Magic Apostle, who had been silent before, laughed heartily, the metal parts on him constantly making a subtle "crack" sound of rubbing and colliding.
The guy whose name looks like a Little Ghost looked at the other two with eyes full of schadenfreude.
He spoke in a stiff Chinese: "I knew it, sooner or later there will be an apostle who, like me, possesses a grand blueprint and far-reaching goals."
"I hope for everyone to have powerful strength, so Iāve turned my kingdom into a Magic Sanctuary, an imagined Mageās Paradise."
"As long as sacrifices are offered to the great God of Magic, the power of casting spells can be obtained! I want to create a wonderful world where everyone is like dragons! I..."
"Sorry to interrupt," Lu Wenwu gestured for the other to stop ranting, "You mean sacrifices, wouldnāt they be parts of your own body?"
Earlier in the Eternal Illusion instance, during the initial rushed journey, he had learned a bit about Curse Masters from Da Bao.
According to Da Bao, thereās a special sect among Curse Masters that can only be cultivated by people with disabilities, and they must be congenitally disabled.
The more severe the disability, the stronger the casting talent, and the more powerful the curse art they can cast.
Such Curse Masters are also known as Celestial Deformed Series.
Congenital deformity brings greater combat strength, and certainly possesses casting talent.
The same curse art they cast is at least 50% stronger than ordinary Curse Masters, even double.
Itās not impossible to become such a Curse Master postnatally.
But it requires special opportunities to achieve.
