Chapter 156 Order Grabbing and Order Refund

A large transport flying boat flew across the sky at high speed, and white clouds were linked together by the air waves. The mountains and rivers on the ground were left behind, and some birds were chasing after it.

The dull man on the flying boat deck was not too surprised when he saw a black skeleton walking towards him. Many magic monks often practiced to make themselves look like neither human nor ghost, and it was not uncommon to see people look like skeletons.

Lin Shan was relieved to see that the Black Skull Demon Lord had successfully approached his target. Then he saw the two people slowly start talking to each other, and they even had a good time talking.

As he was speaking, the Black Skull Demon Lord pointed in Lin Shan's direction, and the dull man also looked over there. Lin Shan didn't know what the Black Skull Demon Lord said to the target, so he could only smile and nod in cooperation.

After that, no one looked at him again. The man and the skeleton just kept chatting about something.

After a while, the Black Skull Demon Lord took out a small light array and handed it to the dull man. The latter took it in his hand and carefully observed and played with it. After playing with it for a while, he couldn't let it go, but it seemed that he was still vigilant. In the end, he returned it to the skeleton with a little reluctance.

They chatted until it was almost dark, and the dull man stood up to say goodbye and returned to his room in the cabin of the flying boat. The passengers on the deck also lost interest in enjoying the scenery and went back to their rooms to meditate.

The Black Skull Demon Lord returned to Lin Shan and grinned at him.

"It's done."

……

Lin Shan's room was on the third floor of the flying boat cabin, next door was the dull man. He chose this place for the convenience of action. As for the restrictions in each room in the cabin, it was naturally a piece of cake for the Black Skull Demon Lord.

After returning to the room, the skeleton took out the small light array it had just used. There was a white mist the size of an earthworm hidden inside it. It took out a small bottle, put the mist directly into it and threw it to Lin Shan.

"This is the target's aura. It will last for no more than three days before dissipating."

Lin Shan took it and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that after the Black Skull Demon Lord recovered from the Foundation Establishment Stage, his methods had indeed increased a lot. He could perform many unorthodox secret techniques, which were indeed becoming more and more helpful to him.

He did not hesitate too much and started to fiddle with the props in his room, not avoiding the black skeleton who was watching. After all, this guy was summoned by this magical power and was no stranger to it.

"Wow~"

The curtains were drawn down, and the room became dark in an instant.

A straw man is placed in the center, two candles stand on the left and right, and a small bottle is placed in the middle. The shadows of a man and a skeleton are enlarged in the darkness. The sound stone is taken out and some scary music is played, and a gloomy atmosphere is created.

Under the speechless gaze of the Black Skeleton Demon Lord, Lin Shan drew his bow and arrow and began to cast his first curse.

"Shh!"

His consciousness instantly passed through the void inside the straw man and came to the opposite side, which was the next room. He found that the target of the mission, a dull man, was sitting cross-legged in meditation, surrounded by dark demonic energy, and seemed to be practicing some kind of magic.

For some reason, his whole body suddenly began to twitch and tremble, and his robes began to swell. The dull man opened his eyes with horror and sat there at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

The next moment, the robes on his body exploded instantly, exposing the skin underneath. Then he discovered that patches of red areas had appeared, with tiny blisters growing all over his body.

Unable to bear the extreme itchiness, he couldn't help but break the blisters on his skin one by one, but the yellow pus inside immediately flowed out. It contained white insect eggs, as if countless unknown insects were parasitic on his skin.

Then, new bubbles started to grow from the same place. He was so frightened that he started to panic. He tried to circulate the magic energy in his body to expel these things, but the bubbles seemed to be nourished by the magic energy and grew bigger and bigger.

Through these pustules, one can see the thick yellow fluid inside. The white worm eggs are also being nourished and growing bigger. It seems that as long as they get a little more nutrition, they will be able to break out of the shell. The body of the dull man is a breeding ground for these little things.
In desperation, he simply began to save himself frantically, using all sorts of means to ruthlessly remove the blisters on his body. Streams of yellow pus splashed everywhere, and the whole room turned into a hell, filled with unpleasant odors.

Lin Shan regained consciousness and returned to his room, having already shot the first arrow in his hand.

The Black Skeleton Demon Lord standing nearby seemed to be thinking about something. He had already quietly set up a formation in the next room, and could even detect the movements on the opposite side like Lin Shan.

"continue."

Lin Shan drew his bow and aimed the second arrow. This time, the dull man next door was no longer dull. Even if he was paralyzed, he could not remain paralyzed when faced with this situation.

Horror is not enough to describe it, it can be called shock and anger!

He messed up his room and tried frantically to save himself. Blisters appeared one after another like bamboo shoots after rain, and they were densely connected like a raging fire. Scary red spots occupied every pore on his body, and the scene of blood mixed with pus filling the honeycomb made Lin Shan suffer from intensive phobia.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

The man frantically scratched his face with his hands, disfigured himself in the blink of an eye. His entire face was bloody and all features disappeared except for the bloody eye sockets.

Between the rolled-up skin and flesh on his body, there was a thick layer of insect eggs inside, which were flushed by the blood and began to enter his body's internal circulation.

Through the numerous wounds, one could vaguely see that the body seemed to have turned into a black furnace, with rays of black light shooting out from the cracks.

In the area of ​​his kidneys, one could faintly hear the roars of wild beasts, as if some terrifying creature was growing in his body, or perhaps there was a portal in his internal organs, and the creature on the other side of the portal was trying to pass through his body and break out!

Black flames swept from inside the body to the outside, and the white insect eggs were burnt with a "crackling" sound. The tempting aroma of the roasted protein mixed with the stench of pus, forming poisonous clouds in the entire room, which further turned into miasma. After that, the poisonous fog filled every corner of the space, and the target man's figure was gradually wrapped up and disappeared from sight.

Lin Shan's consciousness retreated again, and he nocked the third arrow, but this time he didn't look.

Curse him if you want, I am not a pervert. The original purpose was to seriously injure this person, not to disgust me. Anyway, the rest of the follow-up will be handled by the Black Skull Demon Lord.

"Snapped!"

Three arrows were stuck in the straw man. Lin Shan, who had just finished his work, turned his head and looked at the black skeleton next to him. The latter's figure was stretched out on the wall in the dark room by the two candles. It nodded slowly, turned around and walked out.

Lin Shan put away the props and sat cross-legged in his room waiting.

After a while, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord came back with an expressionless face. It was originally a skeleton, and it was indeed impossible to tell any expression from its skull.

"How about it?"

"."

It didn't rush to answer Lin Shan, but was just thinking about something.

After thinking for a long time, he threw a storage bag over.

Lin Shan opened the storage bag, and he didn't care about the mess inside. The only valuable things were two high-level magic tools, a green short stick and a brown zither. The enhanced panel helped him skip the process of figuring out the functions.

【Jade Stick】

Quality: High-level magical instrument

Introduction: This offensive weapon is made from the third-grade spiritual material, the Jade Mountain Essence Jade Stone, and contains three high-level solid inscriptions.

Enhancement required: 32 points

……

[Black Xylophone] Quality: High-level instrument

Introduction: Made of the fourth-grade spiritual material deep-sea inkwood, it has five advanced inscriptions of Soul-Calming, Soul-Shocking, Soul-Attack, Illusion, and Heart Fire, and can directly penetrate the soul from a long distance.

Enhancement required: 32 points

……

The jadeite stick in front is just average, not a high-level magical weapon that stands out, but it is sturdy and durable, and can be used to fight and resist.

The ink wood harp at the back is a bit peculiar. It is actually made of the fourth-grade spiritual material deep-sea ink wood, which is a material that can be used to refine magic weapons.

Moreover, the five soul-raiding inscriptions can be used to launch sneak attacks on the enemy, which is simply a powerful weapon.

If there is no soul defense magic weapon of the same level, or the soul power is far beyond the same level, it is very likely that he will fall into oblivion and be hit to death by a club!

If I'm not mistaken, this dull man's combo against the enemy is - playing the piano - calming the soul - stewing the stick - collecting the corpse.

If Lin Shan fought this dull man face to face, without the assistance of the Black Skull Demon Lord, he would probably suffer a great loss because he was caught off guard.

"Hi~"

Lin Shan instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He originally thought that he could kill Qi Zhong, a true disciple of a great sect. He thought that he should have nothing to fear from the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the same level. He didn't expect that there was someone who possessed such a powerful spiritual weapon!
If he hadn't used the sect's magical power to curse from a distance, and then taken advantage of the enemy's weakness to besiege them with formations by the Black Skull Demon Lord, a master of formations, this mission would probably have been full of twists and turns.

"That dull man is indeed not simple, otherwise the master would not have used him to test you."

The Black Skull Demon Lord sat down leisurely. This old monster did not mention at all how he solved the target. Anyway, no sound or movement could be heard in the big formation, which made it seem even more unfathomable.

"The accumulation of a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building should not be limited to these two high-level magic tools, right?"

"I also destroyed two defensive magic weapons. This is inevitable. It is impossible for them not to resist."

Lin Shan looked at this guy with some suspicion. Given his usual lying behavior and cunning and despicable character, how could he resist taking kickbacks?
However, the fact that Momuqin was able to leave such a top-grade magical instrument to him showed that it still had a conscience, so Lin Shan didn't bother to pursue the matter.

"Indeed, what was the result of the curse?"

"Um"

The Black Skull Demon Lord seemed to have thought of something strange, and the soul fire in his head began to flicker again. Lin Shan, who was familiar with it, immediately guessed that this guy must have encountered something unusual.

"What came this time was not a ghost, but an old friend."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, to be specific, your curse looks scary this time, but it is only a phenomenon curse. The creature summoning is done by someone else!"

After seeing it with his own eyes, the Black Skull Demon Lord had a vague guess about Lin Shan’s curse power.

After he cursed, some strange things happened to the target. It did not necessarily mean that strange creatures had come, but it could also be that a "phenomenon" had arrived.

For example, the dull man's constant pustules and blisters are a normal curse "phenomenon", and other monks who can curse can also do it. When the curse summon takes effect, it depends on whether the other creatures in the contracted world accept the order.
It will only be summoned by you if there are creatures accepting the order. If there are no creatures accepting the order, there will only be a "phenomenon" curse.

However, it seems that Lin Shan’s previous curses had caused the summoning quota to be “grabbed” by strange creatures!

This was the only explanation that the Black Skull Demon Lord could think of.

"Strange creatures can also grab orders?!"

Lin Shan was a little bit unbelievable.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems to make some sense. My curses don't always fail. Isn't the Black Skull Demon King a genuine hell creature who responds to orders? This shows that my curses don't always go wrong.

"What about the old friend you just mentioned?"

"This is the creature that responded to your call and accepted the cursed summoning contract normally. It is a species in our hell world."

"Oh? Tell me."

"The three-headed hellhounds are reptile-like creatures from the third world of hell. I once led my troops to the third world of hell and fought against them. They were not worth mentioning."

"That"

"I will refund your order directly!"

The Black Skull Demon Lord "generously" made the decision for Lin Shan and drove back the courier boy "Three-headed Hellhound" from the third world of hell!
There was disdain in its tone, as if the creature coming from the opposite side was its defeated opponent in the past, with ability and strength far inferior to it, and there was no need for it to meet with its "employer" Lin Shan.

However, Lin Shan could vaguely hear that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. There was a faint smell of tea in the room.

"So what was the outcome of your expedition to the third world of hell?"

"Of course. We are not used to the local climate, so we have to retreat strategically. We will wait for the right time, place and people to come together with other demon lords in Skull Demon Ridge to regroup and discuss again."

When Lin Shan heard the words "regroup", he nodded silently, patted the Black Skull Demon Lord on the shoulder blade with a sense of shared hatred, and mocked the weakness and incompetence of the Third World of Hell with it with endless praise.

At the same time, in the chaotic void, there is another place extremely far away from this world.

In the third world of hell, rolling magma rushed up into the sky and then scattered in all directions. Towering lava crystal pillars rose from the ground. The gurgling magma sea was emitting hot steam, and hot bubbles were constantly evaporating.

A thousand-foot-long black palace was floating on the lava sea. At the end of the palace, on a black throne, lay a vicious dog covered in thick black flames. What was surprising was that it had three heads, and at this moment, its three fang-like mouths were roaring wildly in the palace.

"The defeated enemy of the fifth level of hell, damned black skeleton!"

"If you can't defeat us here, make trouble in other worlds!"

"I just managed to grab an order, but it was interrupted by this!"

"I'm so angry! I'm so angry! Woof woof woof!"

"No! I can't swallow this anger. Tomorrow I will lead my men to the fifth level of hell, find its true form in its territory, and beat it hard!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"
