Chapter 1762 The mysterious visitor
At this time, Su Xiao was in a bedroom, which was simply furnished with a double bed, a wardrobe and a dressing table. The oval mirror on the dressing table looked filthy, with some dried blood stains on it.
Compared to the mirror, Su Xiao was more concerned about the double bed behind him. The quilt on the bed was stained and slightly bulged in some places. An arm that had turned into dry bones was exposed from the edge of the quilt.
When the quilt was lifted, a dead body was found lying on it. The corpse looked horrifying. The left half of the body had turned into dry bones, while the right half remained intact. Except for the loss of elasticity of the skin, it looked no different from a living person.
Compared to the terrifying scene that Su Xiao encountered, Lin Jiu was much better off. Except that the place he arrived at after being teleported was a bit shabby, he did not encounter any strange scenes.
[The hunters have arrived at the wizard city, Heru. ]
[“Heru” is a neutral danger zone. Due to the influence of the old gods, more than 68% of the plot characters in this area ignore the negotiation effects derived from the charm attribute. ]
[The first round of the main mission has been completed. 】
[You gain 2 real attribute points.]
[The hunter needs to activate the second ring of the main mission within 2 hours. To activate the second ring of the main mission, the hunter needs to negotiate with the mysterious visitor (remnant soul).]
[Tip: The hunter's current location is a relatively safe area. The hunter can rest here and recuperate from injuries.]
……
Under his feet, the faint light left by the teleportation array was gradually dissipating, revealing a dark gray carpet. The carpet no longer had a soft texture and was as hard as leather. Lin Jiu looked around and did not see Su Xiao and the others. Only he and Isabella were rolling. Lin Jiu was only slightly surprised that he was teleported separately. After all, the power of the teleportation array came from Sotosa, the ruler of one of the ancient gods. There was a notarized reason why they did not get any accidents halfway.
The environment of the house they were in was worse than he expected. It was dark inside, and the only window was broken, so only a faint light could seep in. The whole space was filled with a suffocating damp atmosphere, which made people shudder.
The roof was in tatters, revealing black strips of cloth, the windows were broken, and the curtains were always hanging down. The furniture in the room was covered with thick dust, as if time had stopped.
The furniture was full of traces of time, with uneven surfaces, as if telling of its history. The paint on the walls had peeled off, revealing the bricks and stones underneath. The wooden boards on the floor were loose, and walking on them was like being in a trap.
"Why is there nothing in this damn place?" Lin Jiu didn't encounter any strange things because there were only a few furnishings in the room. He suspected that the rotten furniture would turn into dust if he touched it.
boom!
Gungun's butt hit a table, which was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The table collapsed instantly, and the dust splashed made Gungun sneeze several times in a row. These sneezes were quite powerful, and a chain reaction occurred, turning several pieces of furniture into tatters.
Su Xiao was in an independent building, with a spacious first floor, various furniture placed around, and a ceiling lamp that could be raised and lowered in the center. It was decorated very elegantly. In comparison, his place was just a shabby little house.
Lin Jiu knew that the terrifying-looking corpse that Su Xiao encountered was not an evil creature. On the contrary, it was one of their colleagues. It just failed in the mission and left a clue for Su Xiao and the others.
A sixth-level hunter had just arrived at the Wizard City Heru and died here. He also provided a lot of useful information. The puppet girl was a neutral unit and could provide help. Most of the wizards in the Wizard Association were pitiful people. The crazier the wizard, the more credible his words were.
"Since Xiao Su has all the hints, then I shouldn't have nothing here." Lin Jiu began to notice the hints he received from the park after arriving here, and found the difference. To activate the second ring of the main quest, Su Xiao needed to negotiate with the puppet girl, but he had a "mysterious visitor" on his side.
"So where are the people?" Apart from other things, Lin Jiu was the first to experience this "mystery". Lin Jiu secretly said in his heart that this guy had better pray that he was a neutral unit, otherwise he would not mind "taking over" Su Xiao and learning some physical negotiation skills.
"Do you think I want to come?" A translucent figure slowly appeared beside the wall covered with mold and greeted Lin Jiu.
Seeing this figure, Lin Jiu had nothing to say. Even if the opponent was not a neutral unit, he could not defeat him now. No wonder the note had the "residual soul" logo. It turned out to be this guy Lin Jing. According to him, his residual soul had very little power left. If anyone believed this, Lin Jiu would laugh at him for a whole year. This time, it seemed that Lin Jing did not want to come here, but was a little reluctant. It was obvious that he was pulled over by the Samsara Paradise to help.
However, it is a good thing that this "neutral unit" is our own. At least we don't have to worry about whether there will be any traps and we can just trust them.
"So what can you do to help?" Lin Jiu was more concerned about what kind of help Lin Jing's remaining soul could provide.
Lin Jiu was not very satisfied with the answer given by Lin Jing's remnant soul: "I will help whatever the puppet girl can do. It's because the power of that thing is not enough for two people to use, otherwise I wouldn't have come here."
The biggest function of the puppet girl is to purify the erosion of the ancient gods. It is already the limit for Su Xiao to use it alone. If there is one more, it will not be enough.
"You can also purify?" Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows and asked, thinking that this guy knows a lot.
"No." Lin Jing shook his head.
"How to deal with that?"
"When you are corrupted, you will know when you come back." Lin Jing smiled so sweetly that Lin Jiu wanted to beat him up.
If Su Xiao knew what happened here, he would be very happy. Let Lin Jiu experience how others are usually mad at him. Lin Jing's speech style is more or less the same as Lin Jiu's. When they are in a bad mood, if someone wants to communicate, they have to improve their psychological endurance.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I'll tell you some information." Lin Jing smashed the tattered wooden cabinet in the corner, revealing a map carved on the wall behind the cabinet.
"Here, in the southwest of Heru, is where the Wizarding Gathering is located. Just like the city of Kiel you arrived at before, the Wizarding Gathering is still the tallest building in the city. When you reach the central street, turn right from the Ataha clothing store and you will find it quickly." Lin Jing pointed to a location on the map and said to Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu memorized the route on the map, and then asked Lin Jing, "What about the mission? What will my second mission be? Is it also to kill the ruler? Can an ancient god be killed twice?"
The neutral unit here is the remnant soul of Lin Jing, and there is another advantage, that is, you don't need to be secretive when talking. Su Xiao needs to use some keywords to trigger the second ring of the main task at the Daughter of Sorrow, but Lin Jiu has no such restrictions and directly asks Lin Jing about his main task.
"It's not impossible." Lin Jing smiled mysteriously at Lin Jiu.
