The two rows of white teeth on the skull chattered up and down for a while, making an irritating friction sound:
"This is just a way to fulfill my promise. In order to give you shelter, I traveled through most of the mine. Let me see how many resources you have obtained during this time."
The skeleton dropped the big demon's body and walked towards Holo and the two.
The strong pressure emanating from his whole body made Hero's scalp feel numb.
'It's really scary. Because there are so many people in the square, I don't want to attract attention, so I suppressed my aura? Now it's all released, trying to inflict power on the two of us!'
From time traveling to now, Helo has met many magicians of different levels.
But it was the first time that I felt that my aura was in full swing and my soul was so oppressed.
Moreover... the form of the skeleton magician in front of me should have completely abandoned the body and embraced the soul. His attainments in soul magic must also be very high.
"Wuhu, let me see what you hunted, a... head of a little devil?"
Seeing the way Holo stepped on it, the skeleton wanted to laugh.
"I suddenly feel that signing a contract with you is a bit hasty. I originally thought that such a weak soul can fluctuate and get the invitation letter because it has some background and strength, but now... why are you afraid that I will steal your little devil?
Head? Hahahaha..."
While talking, the skeleton took out the parchment contract from his sleeve, unfolded it and pointed at the two of them.
Holo stepped on the little devil's mouth tightly to prevent it from speaking suddenly, and even an extra drop of sweat broke out at the corner of his eyebrows.
The maximum soul energy output effect is increased by [Exponential Explosion] of [Famia's Illusion].
Subjective changes distort the perception of surroundings and targets, which makes Hero feel a little difficult.
He didn't dare to relax even a little bit.
When the contract is placed in the skeleton's pocket, there are multiple layers of isolation, making it difficult for problems to be noticed.
But now that the skeleton has unfolded the entire contract in front of him, if Holo makes a mistake in controlling his soul skills, he will find something wrong on the parchment.
Skeletons are not like Marquis and Hall. No matter how powerful they are, they are still in the category of magician apprentices.
Their souls have not undergone qualitative changes.
But the skeleton is different. The feedback from Holo's soul perception is really unbeatable.
The aura just now was like returning to the edge of the port, feeling powerless in the face of the majestic tsunami.
"The instructor only asked us to come here for training. We have just found the traces of the little devil and chased it here to kill it. We will hunt more devils in the future. Do you need to come with us? If you have your blessing, I would like to
You can hunt more little devils."
Hero's words were very interesting. He first emphasized the existence of mentors and their arrangements.
He even wanted to test the skeleton’s purpose.
Do you want to slave them to do some hard work, or let them roam free, and then slaughter them in the end?
As expected, this question made Skull hesitate a little, as if he was considering whether bringing these two wastes with him would slow down his progress.
After all, Hero and Luo didn't seem to be very strong, and they didn't feel the existence of the pseudo-horcrux in their entire bodies. They were just carrying a small bag.
His habitual thinking made him think that Hero and Byrne definitely didn't have space equipment.
After all, no teacher who has been taken advantage of can give them such a precious thing and let them go out of the tower to practice.
If you encounter a black-minded magician, you will be robbed without even knowing who did it.
After weighing the pros and cons, the skeleton quietly took back the contract and sighed.
"It's really a burden. I really want to capture you and use it as bait, but it's really not cost-effective. In this case, I'll come back to you when I leave. Come on, little darlings."
The skeleton snapped his fingers, and a blue glowing will-o'-the-wisp suddenly ignited on the big demon's corpse.
It soon spread to every corner of the body.
'Crack!'
The flames continued to burn the corpse, and Hero, who was so close, could smell the smell of meat.
In just two or three minutes, the flames twisted and dissipated into the void.
All that is left is a piece of scorched earth and the purified materials on it.
A spine without a trace of minced meat, a pair of long and narrow black blades, which are the bone blades of the big demon growing on the outside of its arms, and a twisted curved horn.
The soul spell performed by the skeleton made Holo a little jealous.
Mud! Destroy the corpse, eliminate traces, and extract materials.
It's really easy to use, but unlike me, I have to pull it with my hands in order to get the spine.
Every time, I was covered in blood.
I originally wanted to be a sunny boy, but in the end, even Byrne was scared.
The skeleton who had packed up the materials didn't stop for much, and passed by Hero, intending to walk in another direction.
And just when the skeleton walked to Holo.
The words he said made Hero's heart tense.
"Although I don't know why you keep stepping on this head, it must be quite important to you."
Hero suppressed his heartbeat and replied calmly:
"After all, it is our first trophy, I want to take it back and display it."
However, Byrne beside him couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
A pair of hollow eyes with soul flames peered in front of Hero.
"It seems like your little friend can't hide secrets."
Before the skeleton finished speaking, a pair of bone hands instantly grabbed Holo's neck, trying to control him.
Hero's pupils shrank, and the soul magic formulas carved in his left and right eyes were activated in an instant.
[Exponential Explosion] needs to work in a very short period of time, so Helo needs to output soul energy with all his strength.
A layer of white stone covers the joints of the bony hand.
Compared with the body that can resist stone formation for a period of time, there is nothing in the bones that can stop the spread of stone.
In just a moment, the knuckles, wrists, elbows and other places of the bony hand are completely covered.
Even though he was as strong as a skeleton, his movements were temporarily restrained.
But even the soul control skills that are far beyond the apprenticeship stage are nothing to the skeleton. The soul energy produced after the soul's qualitative transformation can break through the stone control as long as it is washed away.
Even Hero's stone transformation only controlled the surface, and could not even penetrate into the bone seams.
But just for a moment, it was enough for Holo to distort and disrupt the consciousness around him.
"Huh? I didn't catch it."
The skeleton clearly felt that he had caught it, and even the feel was a little different, but he saw Hero lowering his head and passing through his armpit.
Holo kicked the little devil on the head and kicked it away.
He also bent down and ran wildly, and three balls fell from the apprentice's robe, with blue arcs of electricity flashing on the balls.
"Let's go!"
Regarding Byrne, a pig teammate, some want to beat him up. Why did such a smart person before turn into a stupid kid now?
Fortunately, Byrne had come to his senses, and the moment Hero started to move, two wind soul arrows had already been inserted into the hole in the skull's head.
Immediately afterwards, he followed Holo and ducked to the side.
He saw Holo throw three [Tesla grenades].
In this narrow passage, the power of the explosion can be imagined.
And Hero turned his head and used the most powerful [Petrification], trying to hinder the skeleton for a while.
He picked up the kicked nightmare soul.
"Tell me quickly, what are your conditions for seizing the body?"
The nightmare soul hiding in the little devil's head instantly understood what Holo meant, and when he looked at the skull, there was a hint of sparkle in the corner of his mouth.
