A King Summoner Travels Through the World of Ye Luoli
Chapter 104 New Ghosts
"Sister, that's the team leader who's here for the inspection."
The next morning, Lu Zhaoran led his men to ambush them on their way.
The weathered rocks and uneven terrain of this vast wasteland served as their best camouflage.
At this moment, Lu Zhaoran was looking down from a high place at the patrol team composed of humans and spirits.
"These spirits are much more advanced."
The spirits in these patrol teams were clearly more advanced than the ones Lu Zhaoran used for his experiments.
"Didn't you all want to contract with spirits to gain magical power? Now you've come."
However, I have a limited number of slots, and I can only contract with a maximum of two people, so... to be fair, let's exchange heads.
Only those who kill the two most powerful enemies will be eligible to obtain a contracted spirit beast.
After Lu Zhaoran finished speaking, almost everyone around him had a gleam in their eyes.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
……
Someone shouted, and suddenly the crowd attacked.
"That's really proactive."
Lu Zhaoran stood leaning against a sloping hill, watching the scene of fighting below and couldn't help but sigh, "Of all the good things in the world, only things that benefit oneself are the most moving."
"These are really good quality."
Seeing the spirits below begin to act, Lu Zhaoran also began to act.
These things are now a feast in her eyes.
While attempting to absorb the power of the spirits, she encountered another unexpected surprise.
She discovered that the energy within these spirits, once transferred into the human body, doubled as if a compressed file had been opened. In short, the human body is simply the most perfect container, allowing them to fully utilize this power.
No wonder the guy inside Lu An's body gained the power to resist her after absorbing only a little bit of Pang Zun's energy.
The patrol team was surrounded by people digging sand, who were carrying tools.
The supernatural beings that ordinary people couldn't handle were left to Lu Zhaoran and Xingchen to deal with.
Lu Zhaoran killed them as easily as cutting vegetables. Her sword was imbued with her spiritual power, and with a single strike, she could absorb and devour these monsters.
Xingchen, on the other hand, was having some difficulty. Having just mastered the power, she wasn't very skilled at using it for the first time. However, after slaying a spirit monster, it was as if she had opened Pandora's box, and she became more and more adept at each move.
After freeing up his hands, Lu Zhaoran began to observe Xingchen's battle.
This girl is more talented than she thought.
After watching for a while, Lu Zhaoran couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
Lu Zhaoran only taught Xingchen a few moves, but Xingchen didn't stop there. She hadn't even learned Lu Zhaoran's teachings yet, and had only used some spells and moves in front of her and learned about 50% of them.
"Such a talented child, it would be great if I could bring him back and use him for my own purposes."
Lu Zhaoran muttered to himself.
This girl's amazing talent surpasses even Qi Na's, or rather... the entire Ye Luoli warriors combined cannot compare to her.
At this moment, Lu Zhaoran only admired this intelligent girl. She was still single-mindedly thinking about going back as soon as possible. Little did she know that this unintentional act would raise a killing monster in the future.
……
"Xingchen, keep two of them to take back with you."
Seeing that the fight was almost over, with only Xingchen's side still fighting like they were in a bloodthirsty frenzy, Lu Zhaoran was afraid that they would all be wiped out in one fell swoop.
That won't do; we need to keep two for experiments.
"Lord Lu, what should we do with these people?"
After killing some of the humans in the patrol team, the pearl workers surprisingly restrained themselves and left a small group for Lu Zhaoran to deal with.
"Keep one of them locked up so I can get information out of them and wait for me to question them. Kill the rest."
Although Lu Zhaoran grew up under the red flag and was born in the spring breeze, her childhood experiences destined her to be a non-traditional 21st-century human being.
Her heart is much crueler than that of ordinary people.
After hearing Lu Zhaoran's words, the team leaders, driven by their survival instincts, didn't need to be asked. They immediately claimed to know and say everything, desperately wanting to be the only survivor.
Lu Zhaoran stopped interfering in these matters. Businessmen and politicians are the two types of people who are best at understanding people's hearts.
With that one sentence, she knew that to survive, one would have to reveal everything about their family. She wasn't in the mood for questions right now; she was busy researching these two new and stronger spirits, and then finding someone to sign a contract with to see how effective it would be.
----
A few days later, Lu Zhaoran, who had been in seclusion for a long time, finally emerged.
When she came out, besides seeing the stars staring intently at her, she also saw two boys who were considered relatively strong among the pearl workers.
These two teenagers are probably the two who killed the most people and won the top prize this time.
"Before we conclude the contract, I must remind you that the success rate and failure rate of the contract are fifty-fifty. Success is of course excellent, but if you fail, there is a high probability that you will only face death."
The two boys exchanged a glance. They both wanted to try it, because they had fantasized countless times about how Xingchen had become stronger that day.
"Sir, I'd like to try."
After the two gave their answers in unison, Lu Zhaoran conjured up two tiny, shimmering silver threads out of thin air.
"Swallowing this silver thread marks the beginning of the contract; whether it succeeds or not depends on yourselves."
Although they had answered firmly just now, the two boys hesitated to move after actually taking the silver thread.
The price of death is far too high. They are still young people, in the prime of their youth. It would be a real pity if they lost their lives at this time.
"Fear?"
"Go and bring a few supervisors over."
Seeing that they were hesitant, Lu Zhaoran asked her to help them add a basis for their decision.
Upon hearing Lu Zhaoran's words, Xingchen quickly brought over two overseers.
"Here, feed them."
Lu Zhaoran took out two new silver threads and instructed Xingchen to give them to the two of them.
Xingchen took the food and roughly fed it to them.
After the two men ate it, they soon let out painful screams, and then a jaw-dropping scene unfolded.
Both of them rolled their eyes back and foamed at the mouth, and soon they were dead.
Lu Zhaoran: ...
She was convinced; both of them were incredibly unlucky.
"Don't look at me like that. I didn't poison them. They were just unlucky and incompetent, so neither of them succeeded."
After sensing the strange looks from the two boys, Lu Zhaoran gave a helpless explanation.
She didn't resort to underhanded tactics. You see, these silver threads were the materialized spiritual energy she painstakingly created. Killing these people wouldn't be such a waste.
"It's good that none of them succeeded. This way, you still have two more chances, one for each of you."
There are multiple mental powers, but there are only two monsters, so there are only two chances. If you succeed in one, you will have used up one chance.
Do you want to try it?
"I...I...I give up."
One of the boys returned the silver thread to Lu Zhaoran and chose to give up.
Lu Zhaoran then turned her gaze to another boy.
"I... want to give it a try."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and swallowed the silver thread.
"Ahhh!"
Just like the two previous overseers, this boy also let out a painful scream.
Xingchen quietly watched the boy, her thoughts unknown.
"Sister, he will succeed."
"Ah."
With Lu Zhaoran's mental power, she could tell that the boy would succeed when he reacted to the silver thread.
She was a little curious that Xingchen could also see it.
"I...I succeeded!"
The boy opened his eyes, used his hands to push himself up from the ground.
At this moment, the pain had vanished, and he now felt full of strength.
"Congratulations, this is your spirit. Take it back with you."
Lu Zhaoran took out a spirit creature about the same size as her from inside the house, freed it from its restraints, and tossed it to the boy.
"Oh!"
The monster was too big for the boy to catch, and both of them fell to the ground.
Lu Zhaoran: ...sorry.
Xingchen: (With starry eyes) Sister, you're so strong! I want to be as strong as you too!
…………
After the boy left, Lu Zhaoran began to stare blankly at the spirit.
What should we do with it? Should we eat it directly, or try to find someone else to form a contract with?
"Sister, I want to make a contract with it."
“Stars? That’s possible, but you only recently formed a contract with the previous spirit, and your spiritual energy hasn’t fully recovered yet. Forming a contract with an even stronger one would be very risky. It would be better to wait a few more days.”
"Sister, I can."
Looking at the determined girl in front of him, Lu Zhaoran agreed.
After all, the silver hair that the boy who had given up earlier didn't want was taken by this guy first.
She believed that as long as she said "no," Xingchen would immediately swallow the silver thread, giving her no time to take it back.
"Once you've made the decision, don't regret it."
"Ah."
"Come here, let me help you break the contract with the previous spirit."
Only one contract can be signed; to sign a new one, the original one must be erased first.
"No need for you to go to all that trouble, sister."
"Click."
Stunned, Lu Zhaoran then saw Xingchen swiftly and decisively eliminate the original spirit.
Lu Zhaoran: ...
New monster: Σ(?д?|||)??_(:3」∠)_ Private Marseille master, will Watashi be eliminated in the future too?
"What's wrong, sister?"
"No, it's just...too much killing...it's bad, it'll harm your health..."
Lu Zhaoran looked into her innocent big eyes and didn't know what to say.
This girl has a tragic past, and she must harbor a deep resentment towards these spirits.
Xingchen swallowed the silver thread without hesitation.
Unlike the previous people, she didn't utter a sound. Logically speaking, no matter how talented she is, she should be in great pain after suffering losses before.
But the person in front of him kept his lips pursed and his eyes closed, not making a sound.
……
"Sister, I succeeded."
"Congratulations."
