Chapter 364: Soul-Receiving Curse
Huh?
(Human, what weird things are you talking about?)
Beta looked at Bai Qi curiously, not understanding what Bai Qi was talking about. However, Chongcao, who had learned a lot of strange works from Bai Qi, seemed to have realized something.
"I didn't expect that what the leader taught me was actually true. He even guessed the fighting forms of these enemies. You are worthy of being the leader!"
Chongcao looked at Bai Qi with admiration, and kept guessing the comparison targets of other works in his mind.
Crunch.
(Boss, this Death Knight seems a little different from the one we encountered last time.)
Alpha looked at the Death Knight who was being teased by the Nine Nether Bird and suddenly spoke.
"I found that, too."
Bai Qi nodded. Although the Death Knight that he had found in the Secret Realm of the Sun was beaten a little badly by the Guardian of the Underworld, the oppressive feeling was obviously much stronger than the one in front of him.
But the most important thing is that the power of death on the Death Knight in the Sun Secret Realm seems to be purer than the one in front of him?
"This Death Knight doesn't seem to have his own soul. It feels like a puppet being remotely controlled."
Jerry also expressed his opinion, saying, "But I don't sense the existence of other souls."
"Puppet? A legendary puppet?"
Bai Qi's eyes lit up and he suddenly became interested in the Death Knight.
This legendary puppet that can be controlled remotely seems to be worth studying.
On the other side, the Nine Nether Bird apparently also discovered the abnormality of the Death Knight and immediately lost the mood to play around, and the Nether Realm suddenly expanded.
In an instant, the sky and the earth lost their color. The Death Knight, who had been like a madman, suddenly froze in place. With a light claw from the Nine Nether Bird, he was torn to pieces, and his fragments rolled all over the ground.
Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately ran back and said, "Teacher, this Death Knight..."
"I can see that this one should be somewhat different from the one you encountered at the beginning."
Bai Heguang leaned down and looked at the Death Knight in front of him, whose armor looked no different from ordinary ones, and fell into deep thought.
Bai Qi didn't waste any time seeing this, and immediately called Shuke to study it, and finally found a special rune inside the Death Knight's breastplate.
"You've never seen this kind of rune before?"
Although the learning time was not long, Bai Qi had a relatively good understanding of runes. He had dabbled in modern runes, magic emperor runes, and primitive runes.
But Bai Qi had never seen what the Death Knight had on him before.
"That's not a rune, it's a curse seal."
Bai Heguang walked up to Bai Qi and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a soul-sucking curse. Someone has placed his or her spiritual power on it and activated this death knight."
"Soul-sucking curse?"
A light of thirst for knowledge flashed in Bai Qi's eyes, and Shuke beside him silently turned on the video recording system, ready to record every word of Bai Heguang.
"Strictly speaking, the curse seal is also a variant of the rune. It only appeared during the Dynasty of Truth when alchemy was prevalent, and then gradually disappeared."
Bai Heguang paused and said, "The Truth Dynasty existed for a very short time, and it involved some taboos, so these are not included in the history spread by the Federation."
"The Dynasty of Truth, Alchemy?"
Bai Qi became more curious after hearing this, but Bai Heguang didn't seem to want to continue to educate Bai Qi, so he asked, "How did you find this big tomb?"
"It's an accident."
Bai Qi told Bai Heguang about his search for the parasitic beast outside and his discovery of the Dusk Tomb.
Of course, the matter of the lava man was not overlooked.
"The Great Twilight Tomb, Emperor Fa..."
Bai Heguang nodded and said, "Don't explore this secret place for now. Wait until I find all possible entrances and exits."
“Okay, teacher.”
Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. Although he really wanted to help Alpha and the Six Sword Servant improve their skills here, who knows if other Death Knights will come in. He couldn't guarantee that Bai and Guang would arrive in time next time.
"By the way, teacher, why are you here? Aren't you going to deal with the chain issue?"
Bai Heguang said: "Originally, yes, it was because President Qin told me that you accidentally entered a lich tomb that I came here."
At this point, Bai Heguang couldn't help but look at the Death Knight beside him and said, "Originally, I couldn't come in so early, but the entrance to the secret realm suddenly opened, so I was able to come in. Otherwise, it would be difficult for you to escape this time."
"I think the Death Round Table might have some means to ignore the defense of the secret realm and freely enter and exit the secret realm. I will have someone investigate it in detail later."
"Teacher, is it possible that the other party has someone with the talent of breaking through the air?"
Bai Qi expressed his opinion.
"It's not ruled out, but we still have to investigate."
Bai Heguang looked at Bai Qi and said, "But this way, the risk of you going out alone has also increased a lot. For the next period of time, you should not go out for the time being. Just stay in Gusu City. When you return to the headquarters to submit the results of the training camp, I will help you think of a solution."
"Then I'll trouble you, teacher."
Bai Qi nodded and watched Bai Heguang put away the body of the Death Knight. He suddenly thought of something and handed the third-level control rune he had just picked up to Bai Heguang, saying, "Teacher, this is the third-level control rune."
Bai Heguang took the control rune and looked at it, saying, "A product of the Dark Emperor era, this Dusk Tomb is even older than I thought. If it is developed, the gains will definitely be huge."
As he spoke, Bai Heguang threw the control rune back to Bai Qi and said, "Keep this thing. Wait until I make sure it's safe here before you continue exploring."
"OK."
Bai Qi put away the rune and said, "Then what should we do next, teacher? Go back directly?"
"President Qin and the others are very worried about you, so you should leave first. I will take care of the rest."
After saying that, Bai Heguang rode on the Nine Netherworld Bird and flew away into the distance.
"Teacher's style of coming and going like the wind is really... impossible to learn!"
Bai Qi smacked his lips and activated the teleportation rune in his hand.
…
Hill of the Dead.
Chairman Qin paced anxiously as he looked at the still dusk tomb.
Bai Heguang had been in there for nearly half a day, but there was still no movement. Even though Bai Heguang was incredibly powerful, the Lich Tomb was unusually dangerous. If he missed it, Bai Qi would be in real danger.
Swish!
At this moment, a ray of light flashed, and the runes at the entrance of the tomb lit up again, and a figure appeared in front of President Qin.
"Hey, President Qin, Professor Dong, and several other museum owners, are you all here?"
As soon as Bai Qi appeared, he found himself surrounded by people.
"Nonsense, you guys just can't keep quiet every day, can we not come over!"
President Qin punched Bai Qi viciously and said, "You even dare to break into the Lich Tomb. Do you think you are a legend?"
"Uh, isn't this all right?"
Bai Qi scratched his head and looked at Duan Meng and others who were also looking at him with curiosity, but did not tell them about the Death Knight.
Seeing Bai Qi like this, President Qin guessed something. He looked Bai Qi up and down, and after confirming that Bai Qi was not hurt, he said, "Go back and rest first. I'll come to see ."
"Okay ."
Bai Qi nodded. Although he didn't have a direct battle with the Death Knight, he still felt a little tired after being under pressure from the legendary creature at such a close distance.
Go back and have some sleep, then think about other things.
Seeing Bai Qi leave, the three families of Cao, Sun and Liu no longer had any intention of staying here and took the initiative to say goodbye to President Qin.
"President Qin, we are going back together. It just so happens that we have something to discuss with Bai Qi."
Cao Bin said.
"Okay, thank you all for that."
President Qin naturally knew about the Super God Evolution Research Institute, but did not stop it.
Being able to get help from these three consortiums will also be good for Bai Qi's future development.
The three of them left one after another, and Sima Jing woke up as if from a dream. He looked at the few people who had completely left and said, "Then President Qin, I will take my leave first."
"Well, no."
President Qin nodded, and then ignored him. Sima Jing didn't care either. He just silently summoned his pet and chased after them.
…
Gusu City.
Bai Qi looked at the three people who came back with him and said, "Thank you, three museum masters. I will go back by myself from now on."
Cao Bin and the other two nodded and said, "Okay, we won't bother you anymore. We will contact you again after the construction plan of the Super God Evolution Research Institute is finalized."
"Okay, I'll take my leave then."
Bai Qi nodded to the three of them, then quickly headed towards his home.
I've been trapped in the Dusk Tomb for so long, and I don't know if my parents are worried.
Watching Bai Qi leave, Cao Bin and the other two were silent for a while.
"This kid is so troublesome, is it really okay to get involved with him?"
Sun Tian took the initiative to break the silence and said, "Aren't those old guys at home the ones who value stability the most?"
Liu Bi shook his head and said, "Bai Qi will definitely become a legend in the future, but his most important thing is his scientific research ability. Haven't you seen how fast the Wuhou Financial Group has developed in recent times?"
"We have already confirmed our cooperative relationship with Bai Qi, so there is no need to think about anything else. We just need to cooperate well."
Cao Bin said in a deep voice: "If we can establish a good cooperative relationship with the association through this, it will be of great benefit to the future of our three companies."
"As for the Tsukuru Group, their attitude is unclear, so we have to be careful."
Liu Bi and Sun Tian both nodded when they heard this, looked at each other, and flew towards the direction of the elves' home.
The matter of the Super God Evolution Research Institute is not over yet, so they have to hurry up.
The Federation has been in turmoil recently, so naturally their consortiums cannot live in peace either. Leaving the gym for such a long time is not a long-term solution.
