Under the sunlight, the box that was already glowing with golden light became more and more charming.
Two [Gorot's Chains], one on the left and the other on the right, meander like snakes close together.
high speed.
Seems impatient.
But when there were still two meters away from the golden box, the two [Godo's Chains] suddenly rotated on the spot, and one end of the chain was like a whip being thrown out, with a crackling sound, straight abstracted. The fallen, dry trunk.
The seemingly dead tree trunk moved back abruptly, not only avoiding such a blow.
Moreover, an illusory, shriveled, bark-like human face just emerged from the tree trunk, roaring at the two [Gorot Chains].
But just as the roar sounded, it stopped abruptly.
Qin Ran, who was hidden on the ceiling, jumped down in the air, and the [A-Kha Blade] in his hand swept across that face with a cold arc.
Starting from the center of the eyebrows, a straight line spread to the chin.
On that ugly, illusory face, the mouth squirmed a few times before it collapsed straight away.
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound like broken glass, and then, like smoke, it turned into nothingness.
With the disappearance of the illusory face, the bright and charming golden box quickly dimmed.
A box is still a box.
But it was rotten.
The things inside have long since disappeared.
Qin Ran was not in a hurry about this.
He knows how to find his own loot.
Just as he knew that no opponent should be underestimated.
Qin Ran didn't know it was a trap.
But habitual caution let him know what to do.
The two [Gorot's Chains] struck again on the shriveled and withered tree trunk. This time, no accident happened.
The shriveled and withered tree trunks were directly smashed to pieces.
A fist-sized stone fell out.
Qin Ran asked one of the [Gorot's Chains] to pick up the stone, and after examining it carefully, he took it into his hand.
[Name: Stone of Siodi (Complete)]
[Type: Strange Object]
[Quality: 1]
[Attack Power: None]
[Defense Power: 1]
[Attribute: 1, covenant; 2, domination]
[Special effects: none]
[Requirement: Spirit]
[Whether this copy can be brought out: No]
[Remarks: The Sioudi stone is also extremely rare among strange stones. Its existence seems to exceed people's understanding of ancient alchemy, and it has also strengthened the recognition of the natural school that strange stones are natural products. However, you want Using it requires strong mental power]
…
[Covenant: You can use the Sioudi Stone as a medium to sign a covenant with any creature you see. You need the blood and oath of the covenanted person, and a judgment of the opponent's spiritual level +1 (after all pass, the two parties will become a covenant. Covenant of Trust)]
[Domination: On the basis of having a covenant of trust, make another judgment of the opponent's spirit level +3. After passing, you will be able to dominate the opponent, but every 24 hours, you need to re-judgment the spirit of both parties.]
(Note 1: When the Siodi Stone is lost, the covenant and dominance effects will disappear)
(Note 2: Special items can get rid of the covenant and dominance effects of Siodi Stone)
(Note 3: When the dominant creature is greater than 3, 7, or 9, the mental judgment of the dominated creature gets +1 again)
(Note 4: When the dominant creature is greater than 12, your mental power will be occupied, the highest level -1, and will decrease more as the number of dominant creatures increases. This is an irreversible operation, even if you are dominated Creatures die and will not change, unless the Sioudi stone is destroyed, otherwise your spiritual attributes cannot be restored)
…
The attributes and many markings made Qin Ran, who was holding the [Sioudi Stone], narrow his eyes.
"A powerful but dangerous stone!"
Qin Ran commented like this.
Obviously, relying too much on [Sioudi's Stone] will only lead to self-destruction.
But the kind of power that dominates others and is quickly acquired is powerful, but it is enough to make people addicted.
However, for Qin Ran, it was not a problem.
Because, he knows his strength!
He has seen and possessed power far beyond this stone, so naturally he will not be confused by this stone.
Of course, this does not prevent Kieran from using him.
Put [Siodi Stone]into the backpack.
Qin Ran glanced at the sun that was beginning to slant west, and quickly cleaned the battlefield.
But to his disappointment, from the top floor to the forty-first floor, there was nothing worth paying attention to at all, not even the huge skinned monsters had any loot.
As soon as he raised his hand, two [Godot's Chains] were wrapped around his hands again, and after returning to the appearance of a bracelet, Kieran turned and walked downstairs.
Downstairs in front of the door, Palladia, who was tied firmly, looked at Qin Ran who came out, and his body, which had been twisting all the time, became more and more intense.
Palladia didn't hide his desire to escape.
Because, he knew very well that he couldn't hide his thoughts from someone like Qin Ran.
Although it was only a few hours, Palladia already understood what kind of person Qin Ran was.
Do not trust others.
The character is calm and decisive.
Acting is very hot and abnormal.
Once recognized as an enemy, there is absolutely no good end.
People like him who want to hide their thoughts and deceive each other are naturally classified as enemies.
What would happen to him who was not directly killed
Palladia had already guessed.
After all, he had just experienced his career as a 'bait'.
However, Palladia would rather not have guessed it!
It's too scary!
The experience of brushing shoulders with death again and again is enough!
Again
Even if you don't get eaten by those monsters, you still have to be scared to death.
Therefore, Palladia chose to save himself.
but…
Who can tell him what happened to the buckle the other party was wearing
Not only did it lock all his joints, but it also tied his arms and calves together, and his palms were completely closed without leaving any gaps. What's worse, his body was completely bulged and became an irregular shape. It's so far away that you can't use any force at all.
In fact, if so, Palladia could also rely on rolling to move around a bit.
If he hadn't tied another rope around his waist and tied it to the marble pillar of the office building.
Palladia tried everything.
But, no use!
His joints and knuckles were all locked, and he couldn't use any strength, and he became more and more desperate.
Especially after seeing Qin Ran return, this despair reached an unprecedented level.
"Woo, woo, woo!"
Palladia, whose mouth was full of dirt and weeds, wanted to say something, but couldn't come up with a complete sentence.
And Qin Ran was very straightforward, without talking nonsense with the other party, he directly took out the [Sioudi Stone].
"Understand?"
Qin Ran asked.
Palladia's pupils shrank when he saw the [Sioudi Stone].
It was clear that Palladia recognized the stone.
However, Palladia shook his head vigorously.
At such a close distance, Kieran could clearly see all the changes in Palladia, so when he raised his hand, he slapped him.
Snapped!
Amid the loud slaps, Palladia was slapped to the ground.
Blood, mixed with mud, teeth, just sprayed out.
"Understand?"
Kieran pulled out the [Akka Blade], pierced Palladia's finger, and asked again.
"Understood, understood, I understand!"
Palladia nodded again and again, and then opened his mouth and said: "I, Palladia, am willing to be an ally of... and abide by his... covenant..."
It seems that because of the tooth loss, Palladia's voice became muffled.
Without hesitation, Qin Ran raised his hand again.
Snapped!
Palladia was drawn to the ground again.
This time, it was heavier than the previous one, to the point that Palladia's eyes began to scramble.
But he didn't dare to let himself lie there.
Because the [Akka Blade] in Kieran's hand aimed at his neck.
"I, Palladian, would like to be an ally of the man in front of me, and abide by all the covenants he made..."
Before the words fell, the [Sioudi Stone] in Kieran's hand shone with brilliance.
The brilliance is fleeting.
The [Akka Blade] in Kieran's hand also passed the rope.
Snapped!
All the ropes were untied, but Palladia was not happy at all. He looked frustrated, and even stood up in a hopeless manner.
[Sioudi Stone]He knows.
Even, when he participated in the 'Winter Night Battle', this stone was one of the things he wanted the most in his fantasy.
But what he fantasizes is that he holds the [Sioudi Stone] to sign a covenant with others, rather than others holding the [Siodi Stone] to sign a covenant with him.
The ideal is full.
The reality is very cruel.
It sounds nice to say it's a covenant, but it's a slave contract that doesn't sound good.
And now
He signed this bond of slavery.
Does he have a future
Won't work till death
Thinking about what Qin Ran did just now, he fully approves of this guess.
Presumably, he will become the most miserable laborer, right
Life…
That's it.
As if accepting his fate, Palladia stood beside Kieran, waiting for Kieran to throw him as 'bait' again.
However, to Palladia's surprise, Kieran just sorted out the items in those boxes and went straight ahead.
That direction seems to be... out of the city
Palladia was taken aback
"Are we leaving?"
Palladia asked.
This is really incredible to him.
You know, the monsters here are so afraid of the sun, and they have so many mirrors, as long as they operate a little, they will definitely be able to obtain the most lucrative results.
Although it will be sunset, but the current time is still early from sunset.
At least three or four hours.
Enough to find prey several more times!
Is it because you got the [Sioudi Stone], are you satisfied? Ready to hang out until 'Winter Nights' is over
Looking at Qin Ran's back, Palladia guessed.
Palladia's puzzled gaze naturally couldn't hide from Qin Ran.
Coupled with the assistance of the [Sioudi Stone], Kieran can almost clearly understand what Palladia is thinking.
His departure was indeed because of [Sioudi Stone].
However, it is not enough.
Qin Ran, who had already regarded the whole city as the place where his loot was produced, how could he be satisfied after getting a piece of [Sioudi Stone]
He just thought of more through [Sioudi Stone].
For example: Where in the city has the least sunlight
No need to think.
The answer is obvious.
underground!
Or to be precise: the sewers!
And the reason why the tree-like monster chose a tall building instead of going underground was because the other party couldn't move!
Kieran was sure of this point.
He had observed the monster carefully before.
Even under the direct sunlight, the other party remained motionless even under the pain to the point of twisting.
However, other monsters are different!
Other monsters have legs, and they won't be rooted there like the opponent, motionless.
In fact, Kieran was sure that if the other party hadn't used the [Sioudi Stone] to control the large skinned monsters, and then used the large skinned monsters to control the small skinned monsters, those skinned monsters would have gone back underground long ago.
Using sunlight to restrain those monsters on the ground and using sunlight to restrain those monsters underground are completely two concepts.
The complicated underground environment is destined to be unable to replicate the previous methods.
Unless it is step by step, little by little, build 'mirror fortresses' one by one, and implement the method of fortifying the walls and clearing the fields.
However, this is definitely not something that one or two people can do.
Moreover, even with a large number of people, it is difficult to complete.
Not to mention the number of mirrors needed, the limited amount of sunlight in a day alone is the biggest problem.
At night, without the restraint of the sunlight, Qin Ran would not believe that those monsters would still stand there by those mirrors and ignore them.
Of course, there is no way.
The most straightforward and easiest way is to blow up sewers and other facilities.
However, Kieran would never do this before he knew the extent of the monsters underground.
One after the other, Qin Ran and Palladia quickly left the core area of the city. When they reached the edge of the city, Qin Ran suddenly stopped.
In his field of vision, a pool of blood appeared there.
Palladia was not slow to respond.
When he saw the pool of blood, he looked around vigilantly.
Qin Ran slowly approached the pool of blood.
The spray of blood was very irregular, and the prints protruded left and right on the ground, just like an abstract painting.
There are still leftovers of minced meat and bone scum, but not much.
But it was enough to judge that these came from humans.
He raised his head and looked around.
After confirming that there were only bloodstains, meat scraps, and bones here, but nothing around, Kieran turned his gaze to the sky.
Judging from the distribution of bloodstains, the person who was suddenly attacked had no power to fight back, and was swallowed by the monster from the sky.
After the monster chewed a little, it flew away again.
Being able to swallow a whole person in one gulp, there is no doubt that this monster is huge, and making one of the representatives of a herdsman in a certain place helpless shows that the opponent is not only powerful, but also very stealthy and fast in flying.
And the more important point is: this monster in the air can appear during the day!
The other side, not afraid of the sun!
In an instant, Qin Ran thought of these.
Palladia's reaction was not slow. Immediately, the representative of the herders in the gem area wanted to open his mouth to say something.
But before Palladia could speak, Kieran grabbed her and dragged her into a nearby grove.
The next moment, a monster with a wingspan of more than 10 meters, a crocodile head, and a standing chicken body quietly appeared in the sky above where they were standing before.
Palladia looked at the monster with an ugly face, even though it flapped its wings, it was unreasonable and didn't make a sound.
He knew very well that if it wasn't for Qin Ran, he would have been swallowed in one gulp just like the unlucky ones before.
Subconsciously, Palladia looked at Qin Ran.
He wanted to see how Kieran faced such a monster.
I hope to see a little different expression on Qin Ran's face.
But Palladia was shocked to find that Kieran didn't pay attention to the monster in the sky at all, but stared straight at the direction they came from.
