Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 262: Hidden Killer
As expected of the cunning Hell Dragon King, Hades really has good intentions. No wonder he so boldly assigned Tambizi to challenge Leted Ivoire, without worrying that in case of defeat he would be forcibly subdued by me and become my subordinate, so as to further strengthen my power on the "Hell Volcano". However, it turns out that this special mutation ability of "Undead Disintegration Technique" can not only greatly enhance , but also has extremely serious sequelae. Even if one is lucky enough to survive and escape the fate of soul dissipation, there is still a great chance that one will hurt his origin and become mentally retarded or moron, and it is impossible for him to exert the strength that Tambizi should have. He should be worse than the weakest level ten lower-order Hell Dragon, basically equivalent to a useless waste. Moreover, according to Tanbizi's actual performance before and after the mutation and in the battle, combined with the relevant annotations of the "Undead Disintegration Technique", the situation seems to be even worse - although the "Undead Disintegration Technique" is a special ability that risks life and death, hurting both others and oneself, the undead creatures still have a strong desire to survive in their instincts. They only do so when the battle situation is extremely unfavorable. When the usage time limit is about to be reached, they will always concentrate their willpower and try their best to end the "Undead Disintegration Technique" a little earlier while the effectiveness of the "Undead Disintegration Technique" is gradually weakening, so as to increase the chance of survival and not completely die, which would almost certainly lead to death. But Tambizi was not like that. He had no desire to survive at all. He squeezed out the last bit of his body's potential and fought desperately without reservation. In the end, he was unable to control himself and fell headfirst from the air to the ground. He had reached the limit of what his body could bear. The remaining soul energy was very weak and was still dissipating. He was severely injured and had no hope of survival under normal circumstances. This was definitely not Tambizi's instinctive will. It should be from Hades's instruction. He held the belief that if he didn't succeed, he would die. He didn't leave himself a way out and acted as a death squad member. Even if he couldn't hurt me and Let'Ivoire, he wouldn't let Tambizi easily stay alive and give me a chance.
After learning about the dangers of the "Undead Soul Disintegration Technique" and understanding Tambizi's current situation, I couldn't help but become more worried. It seems that Hades has already made up his mind. Once defeated, Tambizi will not be left alive. Almost all of its vitality has been exhausted, causing serious damage to its soul. It has exceeded the normal situation , and the consequences are even more difficult to predict. Even if I successfully save its life, it may not be able to completely repair its soul. There is a high probability that it will become a mentally retarded person with low IQ or a low ability with weakened real strength, which is equivalent to wasting my hard-earned "Millennium Fire Lotus". This is definitely not the result I want. If I had known before that the possibility of saving a normal Tambizi would be so low. I might have hesitated again, but now that I have subdued it and made it my subordinate, it is difficult to back down. Taking a step back would be even more costly. I concentrated on the moment. I exerted the power of "Soul Contract Burning" and tried my best to catalyze the "Millennium Fire Lotus" in Tambiqi's belly to release more fire attribute energy, and strengthened the replenishment speed of soul energy through absorption and transformation. At the same time, I continuously cast the magic of "Soul of the Dead" to help repair Tambiqi's destroyed and fragmented soul. If I can repair the broken soul earlier and restore Tambiqi's self-consciousness, which has been in a coma, it will reduce the damage to its origin and increase the chance of it returning to its original normal state. Tambiqi had been chasing and killing me and Let's Ivoire for a long time, leaving scars all over. I finally managed to get it down, and I didn't even have a chance to rest, but I had to be busy rescuing the original enemy and healing its injuries all the time. It was really funny to think about it.
After a lot of hard work, not only the effect of the "Millennium Fire Lotus" itself, but also my high basic mental power attribute, I can more fully exert the effectiveness of the "Millennium Fire Lotus" and "Soul of the Dead" magic. Finally, most of Tanbiqi's soul was repaired and restored to basic consciousness. I can now communicate with it directly through the "Soul Contract". What I am most concerned about is Tanbiqi's IQ. I don't know if it has been affected by the serious damage to the soul. Although its spirit is still very weak and has not fully recovered, it will not communicate with me directly for a long time. However, I am eager to know its specific situation and draw corresponding conclusions. I can't hold back my temper and continue to wait. I first asked Tambizi some simple basic questions to test its reaction, and then learned about other situations. Because it was too weak, its answers were not very clear, especially for some sensitive questions, probably because of the residual power of Hades. I slightly strengthened the binding force of the "Soul Contract", which made it painful and almost fainted. I had to give up the interrogation and wait for its condition to recover before continuing to inquire. Fortunately, Tambizi's reaction was normal, and the questions it answered were clear and there were no mistakes. It was initially judged that its IQ should not have decreased, at least the degree of impact would not be great, and it would definitely not be mentally retarded. The basic abilities were still there, and I didn't feel that any aspect was weakened. Finally, I was a little relieved. It should not have a big impact on its combat effectiveness.
Twelve hours had passed, and one of the challengers had completely lost the ability to continue fighting. According to the rules, even if the party concerned did not actively admit defeat, the system would automatically determine that it had lost, thus ending this "magma cave mouth" challenge. The result was out, and I had to leave the challenge-only space, fearing that Hades would harm Tambizi, whose wounds had not yet healed and who had been subdued by me, and let him leave with me, flying out of the "Hell Volcano" territory, and I would continue to activate the "Soul Contract" and "Soul of the Dead" to speed up the repair of its soul. However, because it was too seriously injured, the repair of the soul was the most difficult. Even with my help, it could only restore a little bit of its willpower, and it could not be completely restored in a short time. The most important thing was to rely on its own efforts, and it needed a long period of recuperation. Although the time online was not very long, I was almost constantly being hunted down by Tambizi, and I was struggling to escape for survival. The fierce battles made me physically and mentally exhausted, and coupled with the worry and busyness of saving the dying Tambizi, my spirit was already overwhelmed. I arranged for my 500 Black Bone Dragon Guards to protect Tambizi. I had to choose to log off and rest. Let it recover on its own for now. Fortunately, the power of the "Soul Contract" has replaced Hades' will, and I have awakened Tambizi's instinctive desire to survive. It has also focused its gradually recovering consciousness and used the power of the "Millennium Fire Lotus" and "Soul Contract" to repair its broken soul. The prospects are still very optimistic.
After resting, I regained my spirits and logged into the game again. It was just as I expected. Tambizi's condition had recovered a little. After I patiently treated it for a period of time, it could communicate with me spiritually smoothly without much hindrance. Tambizi also had a clearer understanding of his physical condition. He believed that his IQ and ability had not been affected by the severe damage to his soul, and he could still play his previous strength normally. Through a series of tests and inspections, I did not find any adverse reactions or signs, and I was finally relieved. Finally, I got an ideal result. Hades had made all the calculations, but he underestimated my reaction and ability. He successfully rescued Tambizi, who was already on the verge of death, without any injury. He created the possibility out of the impossible and once again thwarted its conspiracy to suppress and contain me. Instead, I added a capable subordinate, which also helped me to further understand some inside information about Hades, which should bring greater help to my expansion plan in the "Hell Volcano".
Under my inquiry, Tambiqi explained the relevant situation of Yisha clearly. Its original form is a thorn bone monster, which belongs to a relatively low-level undead race. Under normal circumstances, even if it evolves to the top form, it cannot reach level 10 and cannot be promoted to the ruling class of "Hell Volcano". However, Tambiqi is a relatively lucky guy. It is a local undead, born on the "Hell Volcano". It was contaminated with some soul energy of the Hell Dragon and obtained the qualification and opportunity to mutate and evolve into a Hell Dragon. Of course, the process is extremely difficult. Because the level of the thorn bone monster is too low, it does not have much development potential and grows very slowly. For the dream of evolving into a Hell Dragon, becoming a ruling class, and becoming a "superior person" one day, Tambiqi has made more efforts , struggled on the edge of death countless times, and evolved step by step to a higher form. Finally, he won the challenge, obtained the qualification to soak in the "Hell Magma Pool", and began to become a member of the upper undead of "Hell Volcano".
While gaining a certain amount of glory, due to its low starting point, Tambizi's growth path became increasingly difficult. He often needed to work to increase his strength. He didn't know when he would be able to accumulate enough energy to evolve into a Hell Dragon. The knowledge of the existence of the "Dragon Transformation Tribulation" was a thorn in Tambizi's heart. With his qualifications and strength, unless a miracle happened, he was almost destined to be a loser who would be eliminated in the "Dragon Transformation Tribulation" and it would be difficult for him to survive. Many undead of the same era, especially those "predecessors" with stronger strength, asserted that he had no chance at all.
Although Tambizi still persisted, his faith was shaken by the indisputable facts. He had already despaired of evolving into a Hell Dragon. At this time, Hades quietly summoned him, played the role of "savior", and claimed that he could secretly help him successfully evolve into a Hell Dragon, giving him hope of becoming "the best". Of course, there is no free lunch in the world. In exchange for receiving the assistance of the four, Tambizi must swear in the name of the supreme god of death, resolutely obey Hades' orders, and not violate them in the slightest, and become a loyal subordinate who completely obeys his orders. Under normal circumstances, undead creatures like Tambizi, who have obtained the qualification to soak in the "Hell Magma Pool", have been given a name by the system, and have a high IQ, will not easily give up their own rights and interests. However, Tambizi's previous miserable experience made it hesitate between enjoying higher rights and maintaining freedom. In the end, it resolutely chose to succumb to Hades's temptation. Life cannot be maintained, what is the use of freedom? After suffering the cold eyes and contempt of other high-level volcanic undead, it wants to have stronger strength and win the respect of others. Next, with the secret help of Hades, it provides more abundant magma energy for it to absorb, and even uses "Nether Dragon Qi" to speed up its growth. Further enhance its strength. Finally, it created a miracle in the astonishment of other volcanic undead. Helped it survive the "Dragon Transformation Tribulation" and successfully evolved into a tenth-level lower-level alien hell dragon. And Hades also used secret methods. It helped it to evolve successfully and also acquired the ability of "Undead Disintegration Technique", which it could use in critical moments to unleash even greater strength.
After that, Tambizi began to follow Hades' orders, hiding his strength and identity, and became a hidden killer. He took advantage of the "magma cave mouth" challenge to eliminate those guys in the level 10 lower-level Hell Dragon area that Hades disliked, and even sacrificed his further growth for this. Up to now, he still has no hope of reaching full maturity and winning the challenge to evolve into a level 10 intermediate Hell Dragon. Not only did Hades not allow it to stay in the level 10 lower-level area as a secret weapon, it has not been able to occupy the "magma cave mouth" containing higher fire attribute energy, and it is difficult for it to accumulate enough energy to supply growth. The reason why he came forward to challenge Let's Ivar this time was the task assigned to him by Hades. If he could not successfully kill Let's Ivar in his normal form, he would use the "Undead Disintegration Method", and the main target became me. At all costs, even at the cost of his own life, he would try his best to kill me. It's a pity that God's plans are not as good as man's. Hades still underestimated my strength and performance. Even though Tambichi tried his best, he still failed in the end. Instead, I took the opportunity to subdue him and took advantage of him.
Swearing to obey Hades in the name of the god of death is extremely effective. It is impossible to choose to betray like the Kokoxili who was bribed by Hades, and it is impossible to be conquered by me willingly. Unless forced, ordinary undead creatures will not easily accept such conditions. Hades is also good at choosing targets. Only undead in situations like Tambizi will have a greater chance of serving him. It's a pity that the "Soul Contract" skill possessed by our undead wizards is still more effective than the not very formal "Death Oath". Once the contract is successfully signed, we can forcibly seize the control of Tambizi from Hades and become its new master.
There is a single line of communication between Tambizi and Hades. If there is anything, he will directly issue orders to it. In order to conceal his identity, he usually acts low-key and rarely contacts other people of the same kind. Therefore, it is not clear how many "private armies" like Tambizi that Hades has who are absolutely loyal to it. I only know that there must be more than one, but I don't know who they are. Because Hades originally planned to let Tambizi and the other two lower-level tenth-level Hell Dragons challenge Let's Ivoire, Khufu and Kekexili together, so that I don't have to be prepared. In addition, this requires three consecutive challenges, and he doesn't want to leave me more preparation time. However, although they have been the ruling class for quite some time, Khufu and Kekexili are not in a hurry to launch a "magma cave entrance" challenge. They are currently occupying the lowest level of "magma cave entrance" automatically configured by the system, and are not qualified to accept the challenge. As time went by, Letediwa grew up very fast, and I was probably also making progress. Hades was worried that if he continued to delay, he would miss the favorable opportunity and the possibility of winning would become smaller and smaller. He had to send Tambizi to challenge me first and fight me to the death with all his strength. It was a close call. If I hadn't made the right tactics and made a quick decision to waste two "Millennium Fire Lotuses", even if I could win the challenge, I couldn't save Tambizi's life and couldn't successfully subdue him, so it would be difficult to gain any advantage from it.
In this way, under Hades' deliberate operation, in order to better ensure its dominance, there must be more than three or five "private armies" like Tambiqi who obey it completely. Perhaps there are such hidden killers not only in the lower-level tenth-level Hell Dragon area, but also in the middle-level area and even the upper-level area, so as to clear some troubles and hidden dangers for it. Fortunately, for the sake of safety, I did not rush to let Khufu and Kekexili challenge too early to compete for the higher-ranked "magma cave|mouth". Otherwise, if Khufu or Kekexili, who are slightly weaker and cannot fly, and I join hands to face Tambiqi's challenge, they may not be able to effectively intercept and win a little breathing space for me. I need to participate in three challenges within a limited time, I am afraid that it will be more dangerous than good. In this way, Taotao may not be able to ensure safety in the tenth-level middle-level Hell Dragon area. Perhaps there is also a hidden murderous intention. We need to beware of the Hell Dragon pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger and challenge it to the "magma cave|mouth" as a "low-hand". It seems that future development requires even more caution, and we must never underestimate the enemy or advance rashly, so as not to fall into the calculations of Hedis who has been lurking in the dark and suffer unbearable losses.
