Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 267 Killer, offline!

boom!

Boom, boom!

The harsh sound of musketry, mixed with the sound of the mechanical cannon held by the mechanical transformer, pushed this inexplicable melee into a bloodier and more chaotic direction.

"Kill, kill them!"

"Damn Blood Whale bastards, how dare you attack us?"

"Jie haha... I'm going to kill you. Even if the people from the Black Pearl come, you can't escape!"

"Kill, kill——"

The pirates who were bound by the rules of Alexey Island were all stimulated by the pungent smoke and the smell of blood, and their eyes turned red.

Especially the pirate group, which had had friction and even hatred before, was even more desperate now.

And the three pirates who first tried to trick people with a broken pocket watch had their heads removed at the beginning of the melee.

The noisy trading area is full of crazy and ferocious pirates, and the melee has filled the place with all kinds of negative emotions.

Chaos, killing, blood...

In the blood-stained trading area, corpses with hideous faces were lying, and their broken limbs were scattered in every corner.

Wei En hid in a corner of the trading area, watching the melee that started with him with a calm expression.

After the transformation, there was a faint hint of scarlet in the depths of his green eyes, and there was even more cold murderous intent on his body.

He looked at the scattered corpses below, his fingers slightly bent and twitched, resisting the urge to let the ghost release the corpse explosion technique.

Is this the result I want?

Is this the result I want...?

No!

Wayne took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth, making his cheek muscles tense.

Although this prevented those bloody and chaotic scenes from entering his eyes, his spiritual power still radiated.

He knew that it was the power of the deception talent that was still acting on the pirates below.

Even though some of the pirates had been slaughtered, he could sense that the effects of the deception were still on them.

At this moment, he thought of a lot.

The first thing that comes to mind is the death process that the Joker mentioned before, after suffering fatal injuries.

The brain dies first, so that mental power cannot control the body.

Then the spiritual power will return to the soul, and then the soul will merge into the original core...

Therefore, what fraud changes is not the spirit, but the soul and even the origin!

Where have you seen such a process?

Where is it?

exist……

Wei En opened his eyes suddenly, it was a projection of a god!

I remember the previous time in Custer City, during Carly’s welcome ceremony, the panel prompted like this.

The instillation of the power of faith changes people's perceptions, turning them into fanatical believers of the Dawn Church from the inside out...

The same goes for the time when Pafula obtained the power of "goodness"...

So that’s it, this is the essence of the effect of deception talent – ​​changing cognition!

Guide them to develop in the cognitive direction he wants, and the strength of their mental power is just a factor that affects the time of deception and the depth of their cognition...

At this time, a message suddenly appeared on the panel.

Wei En just glanced at it, and suddenly a chill surged from deep in his heart.

[Congratulations, your natural ability: Fraud has reached the entry level. You can use survival point pairs to increase its level. Evaluation: It seems that something is acting on your origin. Is it an illusion? Special rewards: +200 survival points, +5 origin, +10 spiritual level, and +10 toughness level. 】

[Note 1: Fraud - Illusion Creation, Effect: You can create convincing illusions to confuse and mislead yourself and others, manifesting as creating complete illusions, or changing your appearance to appear real. 】

[Note 2: Fraud - psychological control, effect: You can influence others through words or body movements, guide and manipulate other people's emotions, beliefs, decisions and even behaviors. Make others trust you or make decisions that are beneficial to you. 】

[Note 3: Fraud-Word Spirit can be unlocked after reaching the proficiency level. 】

[Note 4: Fraud-mirror? ? ? 】

[Note 5: Fraud-? ? ? 】

Wayne's hands and feet felt cold, especially after seeing that comment.

The perception of the panel has also been changed?

Yes!

Although a reward was given, just like when he used the deception talent before, the panel did not detect the existence of the deception talent!

The obvious evidence is this - comparing spiritual transformation and deception talent, it can be seen that there is no change in the description of the entry-level deception talent.

According to Wei En's previous understanding of the panel, whether it is knowledge, skills, attributes or other abilities, the panel has the ability to convert them into numerical values.

If it is normal, after the fraud talent reaches the entry level, the description of each ability on the panel will be more detailed and will also be digitized.

For example, what is the success rate of deception, how much mental power is consumed, and even what effect it will have on what kind of enemies, etc...

But now, there is nothing!

Not only have the descriptions of each ability remained unchanged, but rewards have also been given, and abilities that can be unlocked by reaching the next level...

Thinking of this, Wei En opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but no sound came out of his throat.

The conclusion he came to was that the talent for deception was above the board!

Fraudulent talent...even the panel is deceived...

The word "fraud" kept echoing in Wayne's mind.

Fraud, fraud…

The noisy noises, shouts of death, and the bloody and chaotic scenes all around seemed to have disappeared, without interrupting Wei En's thoughts.

This state lasted for a long time before he thought of another question.

In addition to the deception talent and panel, is there anything else special about him?

Or abnormal?

should……

Wayne's eyes moved slightly and he caught a glimpse of the ghosts floating above his head.

Although they are all his original sub-bodies, their expressions when facing the scene below are different.

The ghost was indifferent, with a pair of red eyes full of coldness.

The driver was calm and unconcerned about the melee below.

The corners of Chi Gui's mouth turned up, his face was full of excitement, and he was even more eager to try, as if he wanted to jump down and fight.

The expression of the secret master is a bit complicated, it is a mixture of worry, pity and sadness, and the red eyes are equally complicated...

Thinking about it carefully, this seems to be the first time that Wei En has carefully observed these sub-bodies, as if he is getting to know them all over again.

Although he has known for a long time that these heads have different personalities and are interested in different things.

But as a descendant of the original body, he has completely different ideas about one thing... This should be considered an abnormality, right?

Like schizophrenia?

No, it's not!

Wei En knows the difference between sub-body and schizophrenia!

The original sub-body is more like an independent individual, originating from him but separate from each other. It has its own thinking, behavior and actions, but it will not affect his body...

Wei En thought for a few seconds, maybe there was something wrong with his previous thoughts on the origin child body.

In the past, he used the original child body as a tool, the carrier of the magic rune brand, and his helper in battle...

But looking at it now, maybe there is a deeper secret hidden in the ghost meditation method!

Thinking of this, Wayne took a deep breath.

At least now, he has found the third possible hidden thing besides the cheating talent and panel - the ghost meditation method.

If the talent of deception changes cognition and creates chaos,

The panel is the source of power, allowing him to grow faster.

So, the ghost meditation method...

Devour, accelerate growth?

Spell rune brand to assist in combat?

Or...in order to give birth to the weird things hidden in the original world...

Thinking of this, Wei En couldn't help but shook his head and couldn't continue thinking.

There are too many secrets in him, and it seems that it will take a long time to figure them all out.

At least now he is alert, which is a good thing.

And he also has some ideas on how to start investigating those abnormal existences - the sequence.

Although the panel, deception talent, and ghost meditation method are each related to some kind of secret, they are essentially different things.

Judging from the order, it should be the deception talent first, followed by the panels he brought to this world, and finally the meditation method!

Therefore, except for the panel, which has no origin, the deception talent should be related to the predecessor, to be precise, the Loft family to which he belongs.

Wayne has not forgotten the illusion of a sister named Estelle Loft when his talent for deception was awakened.

As for the ghost meditation method... someone in the ghost school should know about it!

"It seems that it is very necessary to go to the family and the ghost school..."

Wei En murmured to himself, his slightly confused eyes regained some clarity, and the noisy sounds around him flooded into his ears again.

He looked at the scene below with a hint of bitterness on his face.

Unexpectedly, an unintentional act not only made him understand the nature of the deception talent, but also suddenly promoted him to the entry level.

Beginner...can be promoted to great wizard...

Wayne glanced at the information on the panel, and there was indeed a new prompt displayed there.

[You have met the conditions for promotion to the Grand Wizard. Do you want to advance? 】 【no! 】

Wei En made his choice. It's not time to advance yet, at least not now.

At this time, the melee in the trading area not only did not stop, but became even more chaotic as more and more pirates heard the news and came.

A pirate dies almost every moment, bringing in more pirates who are involved with him.

"Kill them and avenge Shelty!"

"Damn it, why are you starting a war here? You dare to attack me? Kill!"

"you--"

[You are targeted by Ossie Drix's murderous intent. Rating: Weak scum. Reward: Survival point +1. 】

【…】

[You are under a mental scan by Salvatore Samuel Capo. Evaluation: No malice, no malice in repeating. Reward: Survival Points +100. 】

Salvatore Samuel Capo?

Wei En, who was watching the melee below, noticed the familiar name appearing on the panel and raised his eyebrows.

In such a state, the other party can also find where he is?

You need to know the effect of the fourth-level transfiguration - any source power lower than 40% of the original mass power of Olanel, the God of Death, will not be able to detect traces of your transfiguration when it senses your body! (Chapter 178)

Wei En's eyes flickered slightly. He was not sure before in the arena, but now...

He can be sure that the legendary and extraordinary target named Salvatore Samuel Capo is himself!

But what is the other party’s purpose?

Is it true that the other party has no ill intentions as stated on the panel?

still is……

At this moment, a roar sounded from the shop area behind him.

"You bastards, stop it!!"

The pirate who heard this voice stopped his charging action, and the cruelty and bloodlust on his face stopped for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, all the pirates involved in the melee retreated from the inside and outside and scattered around.

"The 'Slayer' is coming, retreat!"

"Damn it, if you don't come sooner or later, I will shoot the 'lone wolf'!"

"Stop talking nonsense and leave the city-state quickly. Otherwise, if you are blocked in the city by the people of the Black Pearl, you will die——"

Wayne took a look and saw "The Killer" Honatan Kirkland running very fast in the distance, his body full of evil aura, and his face full of anger...

Honatan…

On the contrary, it can be like this!

He suddenly thought of how to make the next arrangements on Alexei Island!

Wei En looked around calmly, and when no one was paying attention, he directly asked Chi Gui to release the Shadow Step spell.

The next second, he appeared in the death-filled kingdom of Death, staring at the entire Alexey Island.

If he wants to complete what he just imagined, he still needs to wait for a while.

Moreover, he also needs to avoid the legendary extraordinary person hiding in the dark.

In this way, Wei En maintained his Shadow Step, and when the time came, he would find a corner to hide in, and then return to the Kingdom of Death.

On the other side, hiding outside the trading area, in a corner closer to the city-state's high wall.

Ronan could not help but frown when he sensed Wei En's disappearance.

His spiritual perception covers the entire Alexei Island, how come...

Did he go to his hiding place again?

Ronan, who was preconceived, curled his lips slightly. He originally wanted to see if there were any other moves from him, but he didn't expect it to end like this.

He withdrew his mental strength and thought back to what Wei En had just done in the trading area. He always felt that there was something wrong in it.

Is it the charm spells cast by those phantom clones that are causing the chaos?

But how did those pirates believe that the pocket watch was really worth ten thousand gold pounds?

Ronan thought for a few seconds and twitched the corner of his mouth. It seemed that the little guy had learned a new spell, and the effect was to make people fall into an illusion...

With this thought in mind, he turned around and walked out of the city.

The little guy is just like that bastard Boras said, be careful and you shouldn't be in danger in a short time.

It just so happens that he can do other things during this time...

……

……

The farce in the trading area had stopped before "The Killer" Honattan arrived, leaving only devastation and corpses everywhere.

The pirates who were injured in the melee and unable to escape were lying in a pool of blood with miserable expressions, staring at the cold-looking Honatan not far away.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on here?"

"Master 'Slayer', we don't know either..."

The guards of Alexey City State were also confused. The melee started inexplicably and expanded to a thousand people without giving them time to react.

If Honatan hadn't arrived, they wouldn't have been able to stop him.

Who dares to run past those pirates when they are killing Red Eyes?

"waste!"

Honatan glared at the guards angrily, looked at the injured pirates on the ground, thought for a few seconds and waved his hand, "Take a few of the less seriously injured pirates back to the arena."

The guard was about to agree, but after a quick glance, he hesitated and said, "Sir, what about the others?"

"Kill them all!" Honatan gritted his teeth and said: "If you dare to cause trouble in the city-state of Alexey, you will die!"

"Yes!"

For a time, the entire trading area was littered with corpses, with thick blood mixed with broken limbs and weapons and equipment...

Honatan's expression softened a little, and after glancing around, he said coldly: "This matter will not just be forgotten. After finding out who did it, everyone will be hunted by the Black Pearl, even if The same goes for him escaping from this island!”

The pirates and nobles watching the show were shocked, but they smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Humph!"

After making arrangements, Honatan saw that the farce here had stopped, so he turned and headed towards the central city-state, leaving only the guards to deal with the follow-up.

Not long after, he walked through the shop area and arrived at the larger pirate group's garrison area, mumbling with confusion on his face.

"Damn it, I feel like there's something unusual on the island these past two days."

"First, 'One Eye' was killed, and then 'Beautiful Hand' was assassinated for no apparent reason. There was also the matter in the trading area..."

"No one will be eyeing this island, right?"

Honatan looked around and quickly quickened his pace. He had to discuss it with Frenda quickly.

What a bad omen... huh? !

At this moment, a strange Gonzalez language sounded in his ears.

"Flo, Ize, Orella!"

Then, before he could react, he felt pain in his shoulder and was dragged into a sticky place.

"Who?!"

Honatan's murderous intention suddenly broke out.

But the moment his vision returned, he was stunned.

I saw that the world in front of me was no longer the familiar garrison area, but a world full of death.

The mountains made of piled corpses tower into the sky, connecting to the sea of ​​blood in the sky...

And behind this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, there is a huge throne high above.

Hazy, the disappeared memory in Honatan's mind resurfaced - that was the god he saw after being hit by the Howling of Fear!

At this time, Wei En, who was standing behind Honatan with his back to him, said calmly: "Welcome to the kingdom of death."

The kingdom of death? !

Honatan was about to activate his extraordinary bloodline, but a terrifying scream made his consciousness sink.

The terrifying figure appeared in front of him again, sitting on the throne and looking towards him...

In his last consciousness, a word appeared in his mind, the God of Death...

[The Howl of Fear (Death) spell you released hits Honoran Kirkland, causing him to fall into fear and despair for 100 seconds. Evaluation: Using the power of the origin of death in the country of Olanel... I have to praise you... Special rewards: +50 survival points, +1 spiritual level. 】

commend?

Are you afraid that doing this will cause something bad?

Wayne curled his lips and looked at Honatan who had completely lost his resistance. He no longer hesitated.

Activation, spiritual transformation increases the toughness level!

Boiling blood!

He blasted the "slayer's" head with one punch, and then cast a soul-eating spell to devour Honatan's body clean.

[You use the Devouring Soul Spell to devour the origin of Honatan Kirkland, and your origin will be improved. Special reward: Origin +5. 】

Immediately afterwards, Wei En directly gave the order to Chi Gui - the transfiguration technique.

The next second, he turned into Honatan, stepped out of the Kingdom of Death, and reappeared in the garrison area.

Wei En adjusted his gorgeous robe and continued towards the arena with a calm expression.

Sorry, for the sake of the next plan, I can only make you disappear.

However, since even "One Eye" and "Pretty Hand" are dead.

As one of the people in charge of Alexei Island, the "Slayer" should also go and reunite with them.
