Chapter 50: Chapter 25: Spirit Severance Technique
Li Cunxu ignored him and asked, "Why did you harm me? And why did you pull out a nail from my sister’s body?"
Blood Wind Thoughts couldn’t control his mouth and said, "Your sister is very peculiar, eroded by the power of the Four Deities, she’s a monster. I wanted to see what would happen if your death stimulated her."
It was more or less the same as his guess.
"How did you find me at the ranch?"
"I saw you riding a bicycle on the road and followed you all the way."
He had asked everything he needed to. It was time to squeeze the last bit of value out of him. Li Cunxu’s eyes flickered with ill intent.
"What is your blood beast?"
"The Invisible Lizard Dragon."
Li Cunxu was somewhat delighted. It turned out to be it, which was perfectly suited to his taste.
The lizard skin of the Invisible Lizard Dragon is the main material for making cloaking garments, and in many of Li Cunxu’s future plans, having an invisible cloak was indispensable.
"What level?"
"Silver Level Five."
Li Cunxu went out of the room to discuss with the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter.
"A Silver Level Five blood beast—the Invisible Lizard Dragon, can you kill it?"
The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter patted the guard dog’s head, "On my own, it might be a bit difficult, but with Ah Huang’s assistance, it’s a sure thing."
"Alright, I’ll leave it to you then."
Li Cunxu brought out Blood Wind Thoughts’ head. "I’ll give you one chance to summon your blood beast."
"Mechanical Annihilation Hunter, lift the Hunter’s Cage that seals him."
The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter waved his hand, and the Hunter’s Cage that prevented Blood Wind Thoughts from summoning his blood beast was lifted.
Blood Wind Thoughts was elated; he was finally free of this damn seal and could summon his blood beast.
But first, let’s paralyze this little brat.
Blood Wind Thoughts sneered, "You want me to summon the Invisible Lizard Dragon? Dream on! Do you think I don’t know your plan? You want to kill my Invisible Lizard Dragon and harvest its materials."
Originally, Li Cunxu planned to use a slave collar to control Blood Wind Thoughts to summon his blood beast, but after Lin Qingwei wore the slave collar, it was damaged when removed.
"Refuse to summon? Then you can die!"
With that, Li Cunxu pulled out a Cursed Black Gold Dagger from behind, melted and reforged from a black cat statue.
Blood Wind Thoughts screamed, "Aren’t you going to turn me into the Alliance? I’m a Blood Cultist and know a lot of secrets. If you hand me over, the Alliance will reward you richly."
Li Cunxu, undeterred, raised the dagger. "Are you stupid? You know secrets you shouldn’t; how can I let you live?"
Just as the black gold dagger was about to pierce Blood Wind Thoughts’ forehead, an air bullet suddenly shot out from the side. The always alert Mechanical Annihilation Hunter slashed the air bullet with his knife.
Startled, Li Cunxu retracted the dagger, glaring fiercely at Blood Wind Thoughts. This guy was pretty sly and cunning. He said he wouldn’t summon, but secretly, he had already summoned the Invisible Lizard Dragon without a trace.
The Invisible Lizard Dragon, unlike Blood Wind Thoughts, not only has an invisibility skill (shared with Blood Wind Thoughts) but also a breath-concealing skill. With invisibility and breath-concealing, as long as it stays still within ten meters of the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter, the hunter won’t detect it.
The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter threw a Nepalese Hunting Knife at the source of the air bullet, but it missed. Immediately, the hunter realized the Invisible Lizard Dragon also had a silent step skill.
"Ah Huang, use your loud barking to disrupt the Invisible Lizard Dragon."
Seeing the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter take no action but vigilantly watch his surroundings, Li Cunxu knew it had no countermeasures, so he had to give orders.
The guard dog let out a loud bark, causing irritation to rise in the Invisible Lizard Dragon’s heart, making it stumble in its silent step and reveal a slight movement. The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter, with ears keenly attuned, immediately fired.
Observing this, Li Cunxu instinctively evaluated that the guard dog and Mechanical Annihilation Hunter had combat power, but they had relied too much on the Beast Master’s command in the past, lacking adaptability.
Not knowing where the Invisible Lizard Dragon was hiding, the correct response was not to look for it but to attack its Beast Master, for the Invisible Lizard Dragon would appear when saving its master.
If the Invisible Lizard Dragon shows a flaw, reveals its position, it’s not about shooting at it, but instead, continue to target its Beast Master.
Overall, attacking its Beast Master is undoubtedly correct.
Its Beast Master’s head is right on the table, easy to kill.
For instance, now, Li Cunxu plunged the black gold dagger into Blood Wind Thoughts’ skull.
Blood Wind Thoughts died, and immediately the Invisible Lizard Dragon suffered from the backlash of the Beast Taming Contract, raising its head and howling loudly. The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter picked up the hunting knife, charged for five seconds, and beheaded the Invisible Lizard Dragon.
Li Cunxu(⊙o⊙)...
Uh, that’s the second beheading, the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter probably doesn’t have some strange fetish, right!
The Invisible Lizard Dragon died, dropping nine skill seeds: [Invisibility], [Conceal Breath], [Silent Step], [Stealth], [Lock Picking], [Theft], [Air Bullet], [Blood Spike], [Blood Recovery], a Silver Level Five spiritual core, a pile of flesh, and a lizard skin.
Unfortunately, it didn’t drop any skills related to nightmares. Skills related to dreams are all quite valuable.
Li Cunxu picked out two skill seeds: Blood Spike and Blood Recovery. These can’t be used or sold; only blood beasts can use them. If given to a pet beast, it might become infected and turn into a blood beast.
"Mechanical, these skills like Invisibility and Conceal Breath are good, they match well with your abilities and can enhance your strength."
Li Cunxu handed over the remaining seven skill seeds to the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter.
The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter shook his head and refused, "I don’t want them. There’s no point in getting stronger without a master."
"What do you mean? The stronger you are, the more confident I am in you protecting the ranch."
Li Cunxu forced the skill seeds into the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter’s hands without allowing any argument.
The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter pushed them back to Li Cunxu. Since the hunter was stronger, the skill seeds ended up back in Li Cunxu’s arms.
Li Cunxu handed the skill seeds to the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter again, "You helped defeat the Blood Cultist who nearly killed me. You did me such a big favor, I can’t just let it go without appreciation. Otherwise, I’ll be embarrassed to ask for your help next time."
"Take them! Even if you don’t use them, Ah Huang can."
"If you don’t accept them, I’ll throw them away."
Seeing the seriousness in Li Cunxu’s words, the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter reluctantly accepted them.
"I can’t use the lock picking skill."
Li Cunxu smiled, "No worries, learning an extra skill never hurts."
"Master, how did you know Ah Huang would bark loudly?"
Li Cunxu’s command of Ah Huang, which revealed the Invisible Lizard Dragon, was astounding to the Mechanical Annihilation Hunter.
"Common sense! Guard dogs usually have this skill."
Common sense? The Mechanical Annihilation Hunter was doubtful. The latest Beast Master textbooks didn’t record that guard dogs all had a loud barking skill.
Li Cunxu cheerfully skinned the lizard, "This skin is enough to make an invisible cloak, and the extra scraps can cover the processing fee."
Because he was skinning the lizard, Li Cunxu’s hands were bloody, so he ran to the creek to wash them.
"Ah! The downside of not attending Beast Master class is showing again. No one taught me Spiritual Flaying."
If he knew Spiritual Flaying, Li Cunxu wouldn’t have to skin the lizard himself; a single use of Spiritual Flaying would easily solve it.
Looking at the pile of the blood beast Invisible Lizard Dragon’s flesh, Li Cunxu felt troubled.
