Chapter 26 The Ghostly Bow Spirit
I was a little absent-minded at our regular meeting of the Wind Brigade. I strongly wanted to see the shadows, and I didn’t know why I felt a little uncomfortable.
"Spider! Spider! Hey! It's back!" The stolen sky swept his palm in front of my eyes.
I came to my senses, "What's the matter?"
"What's the matter? You've been heartbroken, but you're still being someone else. Why are you so unsteady? We're discussing when to leave the Fox Clan."
"Have you collected enough poison?" I asked the Dragon and Wind, and he has always managed these things.
"Enough, my money house's box is almost filled with poison. We dare not provoke a few spiders that are too powerful, but we have collected some of the other spider poisons."
"How have you practiced your skills?"
"Don't you ever look at the rankings? We've all entered the top 100 in the thief rankings and assassin rankings. Do you think it's OK?"
I nodded, "Where is the ore?"
"It's all in my storage box, some bought from the exchange, some mined by myself, and some bought from other miners, a large box full of dangdang." Piaochen said confidently.
"Then I'll take it to refine it, and then we'll ask the patriarch to go through the procedures and leave!" Thinking that I was about to go out, I forgot about the troublesome things for the time being. I was a little excited. I had been living in this place for so long, but I didn't know what the outside world had become.
The five thieves were also very excited. They felt like we were like monsters who had been practicing in the deep mountains and forests for hundreds of years and finally achieved great magic skills. We were finally going down the mountain to harm the world and finally seeing the flower world outside.
All six of us took our belts into the air before we put the pile of iron ore brought by the little thief Piaochen. When we poured the ore pile like a hill in front of Elder Tong, Elder Tong, who had always been calm, couldn't help but show a surprised expression, but immediately turned into an excited expression.
"Haha, I haven't used the Demon Fox True Fire for a long time. Today I will give you a long experience." Elder Tong's beard was shaking as he spoke.
"Then I'll trouble Elder Tong." We said in unison.
Elder Tong nodded, stretched out his arms and shook the sleeves of the wide robe, revealing a piece of strong arms. Damn, he looks stronger than stealing dragons and turning winds. He doesn’t look like an old man in his sixties, and he doesn’t look like a weak mage!
Elder Tong buckled his hands, and a huge purple fireball appeared in the air, just like what he saw before. Then Elder Tong's hands gradually covered a layer of faint purple. Two smoke-like breaths floated quickly to the huge fireball. The fireball was like an inflatable balloon, expanding rapidly. Even if we were 30 meters away, we could clearly feel the strong aura. Even if we were at the extreme, we would turn back. I looked at the fireball without a trace of temperature, and this word suddenly appeared in my mind. Does it become cold when the temperature reaches a certain level? Or is the natal flame of the demon fox clan originally such a contradictory flame?
When the fireball reached a diameter of 30 meters, Elder Tong stopped inputting flames. With a wave of his sleeves, a gust of wind sent all the ores into the fireball in the air. Wind-type spell?! Double-type mage?! It's so outrageous!
"Elder Tong, you are a dual-type mage!" I looked at him like a pervert.
"Of course not." Elder Tong looked unhappy and still shining with spirits. "I am a wind-type mage. Didn't I tell you that the natal flame of the demon fox clan is innate to us? There is no need to practice at all. It will gradually become stronger as we grow older. We just need to practice the usage skills. From another perspective, you can also think that all the demon fox clans are dual-type mages, because our demon fox clan does not have fire-type mages." Elder Tong explained proudly.
"Then, that elder Fire is not a fire-type mage anymore? Then why should he be called elder Fire?" I asked curiously.
"The elders in charge of punishment in the Demon Fox Clan have been called Elder Fire, just a title to distinguish the elder's responsibilities. That kid is actually a water-based mage who majors in water-based attack spells, which is what you call ice-based spells. However, the one we Demon Fox Clan likes to use the natal flames most. After all, the real name Flame can use powerful spells without chanting complicated spells. Other spells are just auxiliary in our opinion."
"Then why are you all wearing red robes?! I have to think you are all fire mages." I feel like I'm being deceived.
"Because it's beautiful!" Elder Tong said for granted.
Plop! All six of us fainted. The Demon Fox Clan is really an unreasonable race. Although we are all part of the Demon Fox Clan now, we are different from these perverts, and we will never admit that we are one of these perverts!
...
In the six of our stunned eyes, Elder Tong controlled the large iron ball to fall in front of us.
"How can we get this thing?" said depressedly as the iron ball, who was fatter than him.
"Just cut it open." Elder Tong said lightly, as if cutting open this high-purity iron ore is a simpler thing than eating. Seeing us all looking at him resentfully, Elder Tong smiled strangely, "If you can't cut it open, then tell me, I will definitely cut it for you if you say it. How can I know if you cut it open? As long as you say it, I will refuse..."
All five thieves looked at me, and I understood their eyes. They were saying, "This elder Tong is the reincarnation of Tang Monk!" I replied with a helpless look and told them, "Don't be surprised, I'm used to it. Maybe the person who designed this elder Fire is a star fan!"
"Then please help Elder Tong cut it for us!" I said respectfully.
"Yeah." Elder Tong seemed to be impatient. This guy really loves to show off!
A sharp blade made of flame appeared in Elder Tong's hand, which was 3 meters long, and the vague Taoist body was indescribable.
"Dear children, please be careful!" Elder Tong raised the flame knife proudly and brushed it. Then he saw a layer of purple light and shadow covered an iron ball. A few seconds later, Elder Tong floated to the side and stood with his hands behind his back, looking like a fairy-like paradise, but I know that this guy is pretending to be B!
The iron ball was broken into pieces, and five thieves looked at Elder Tong in admiration, and the latter looked enjoyable... It made people want to despise him in their hearts!
"Haha! I haven't used the demon fox with all my strength for more than three hundred years. It seems that I am still a sword!" Elder Tong boasted shamelessly, but we were all busy preparing ore, and no one paid attention to him...
However, the little thief Piaochen asked a question because of curiosity that Elder Tong vomited blood: "Three hundred years? Elder Tong, you were a blacksmith three hundred years ago!"
"I...I...I...I participated in the World War three hundred years ago and made great achievements. You said that I was a blacksmith, and I was so angry!" Elder Tong was so angry that his beard shook.
"World War? Who won?" asked reflexively.
"Of course it's our demon fox clan!" Elder Tong became proud again, "At that time, the Su Nie clan was defeated by us, and the White Wolf clan was unable to steal chickens and lose rice. After the failure, their clan leader was pissed to death. If the Lord of Eclipse City had not kept his neutrality smartly, Eclipse City would have been razed to the ground by us."
"Then why does the demon fox tribe still stay in this corner and not occupy other tribes?" asked Miraculously. According to our world war history, defeating the enemy generally means cede land and pay compensation, or developing colonies. However, according to the current situation in the prehistoric world, other tribes are not restrained by the demon fox tribe?
After hearing the question about the question of "Stealing the Sky to Change the Sun", Elder Tong looked at him with contempt: "If you have been living in a luxurious villa, would you still be willing to live in thatched hut?"
"Of course I don't want to."
"That's it. The place where our demon fox tribe survives for generations is like a luxury villa. Compared with us, other cities are no different from thatched huts." Elder Tong was stinking again. Although other tribes are not as beautiful as here, they are not related to thatched huts! The demon fox tribe is indeed arrogant and narcissistic, but we don't have the courage to show contempt.
"Elder Tong, we're leaving. I'll see you when I have time." I'll be confused if I stay with this old pervert again, so it's better to leave quickly.
"Oh, don't be busy, Spider, I have something to talk to you alone, you can leave later."
"?" I was full of questions. What tricks did this old guy want to do?
The six of us looked at each other and spoke: "Spider, let's save the ore first, and then wait for you at the gate of the palace."
"Yeah!" I had no choice but to nod.
When the five of them walked away, Elder Tong changed into a serious expression and pulled me to a corner without saying a word: "Spider, do you remember you buried a bow here?" Elder Tong pointed to the ground.
I took a look at the mark I made, "Of course I remember, I buried the Demon Kill here, that is a weapon I made myself." As I said that, I was a little sad. The wisteria bow I used now is far inferior to Demon Kill, and it is too light in weight, which makes me feel very unattackable.
"There's something wrong with your bow!"
"What? If something goes wrong, it will be broken. What problems will happen? Will it be broken into pieces?" I asked strangely. It's all broken. It doesn't matter if there is any problem. Why is Elder Tong so serious?
Elder Tong shook his head, "On the contrary, it repaired itself."
What?! It's a miracle that has arrived! I was stunned. Could it be that my character is so good that the ghost killer, who was sentenced to death by the system blacksmith and carpenter, will be repaired by himself?! By the way, why did I forget that ghost killer has the attribute of automatic repair!
"That's not surprising. Ghost Kill can be automatically repaired." As I said that, I was so excited that I was about to dig out Ghost Kill, but I was caught by Elder Tong.
"I know that the Mikun Wood can be repaired by itself, but it is absolutely impossible to connect it if it is broken into two pieces. The restoration of your bow is something else." Elder Tong's expression was still serious.
I looked at Elder Tong, and he didn't look like he was pretending, "What?" I asked very carefully, afraid that it would be a situation where joy and sorrow were caused by sorrow.
Elder Tong stroked his beard and thought for a while, "Although I am not a psychic, I can still feel the soul of my tribe. I can be sure that there is a demon fox clan's soul attached to your bow, and your bow is repaired. Maybe it hopes that after the bow is repaired, the owner of the bow will take it out!"
"Isn't this a good thing?" I was confused. Not only did my bow be repaired, but I also provided a long-term residence for a lonely ghost. Why did Elder Tong be so serious about such a best-in-one thing?
"Oh, it seems to be a good thing from some point of view. If this soul attaches to your bow, it becomes your bow spirit."
"Bow Spirit?"
"Well! Any equipment above spiritual weapons will have a soul attached to it. Because of this bow spirit, your bow has reached the level of a lower-grade spiritual weapon. The breath of this bow spirit is quite powerful. If your bow had not been of low level and had suffered severe damage, it might have been even more powerful."
"No need to be more powerful, so I will be very satisfied." I said happily, stretching out my claws to dig ghosts and kill them, but I was stopped by Elder Tong again. I looked at him resentfully, "What else do you have to say at once?"
"The biggest problem is that the origin of this soul is unknown. After all the people in the Demon Fox Clan die, the soul will go to the underworld. There is no exception, even Fan... even those criminals. Unless this soul has a way to return from the Underworld, but there will be no soul that will come back from the Underworld for no reason, that means losing the opportunity for reincarnation. And even if it wants to come back, it is impossible without the help of the Underworld. Therefore, this bow spirit must have returned with some purpose. When it wanders on the land of the Demon Fox Clan, it found this spiritual mystical wood attached to it. Isn't this a big problem?"
"It's a big problem." I agreed, but in my heart, I was thinking proudly. God treats me well. Since this bow spirit can come from the underworld, I must know the way to go. And it seems that it has something wrong with the Underworld. If I can communicate with it, my main mission will be settled. Thinking of this, I asked Elder Tong: "Elder Tong, is only a psychic master able to communicate with the ghost?"
Elder Tong nodded, "It's true, but unfortunately, the only psychic in the demon fox clan... is dead, and I can't know why this bow spirit appears."
"Why would Elder Tong tell me where there is a psychic? I will take the ghost killer to find him. So that I will know its origin soon?" Haha, I will become more developed when I figure out the way to go to the underworld.
Elder Tong thought for a long time and said hesitantly: "Your method is the only method now. As for psychics, they are very mysterious. I don't know where to find them. However, according to convention, there should be one or two psychics in each tribe. If you go out and walk around, you might be able to encounter them."
I vomited blood and asked me to find it myself?! It’s so big and so many NPCs, I can only find it in the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month!
"Also, this psychic is not necessarily a native native like me, or an adventurer like you." Elder Tong added.
I fainted and I didn't want to live anymore.
What I don’t know is that in reality, there is also a person who fainted because of this incident, which is the technical director of Huafeng who has only appeared once - Qi Tianshu.
"The director's health has always been good! Last time, the company's basketball game was extremely fierce and he committed fouls. He knocked several of them over, but was sent off by the referee's red card. Why did he faint today? What was so exciting?" Employee A.
"Maybe I had a charming girlfriend two days ago. I've been overworked recently!" Employee B.
"Don't guess it." The assistant to the director said helplessly, "In fact, it was because a girl from the demon fox clan with the ID named Luoshui Spider in the prehistoric world took over the new system task he had recently added."
"The system tasks are originally something that people can take, so what's so strange about this."
"Oh~" the assistant director sighed, "It's really nothing strange, but the girl has already taken over the two system tasks we designed in the previous one. In order to give other players a chance, we added another system task, and just in case, this task is designed as a psychic special task, because this also doubled the number of hidden professional psychics. But unexpectedly... by chance, an archer picked it up cheaply. Fortunately, she had to find a psychic to cooperate to start the task, otherwise we would have to consider whether to add another main system task."
"This girl is so awesome. She can actually kill people invisibly. She made Director Qi, who has always been strong, vomit blood and faint in just a few seconds. Idol!"
"..." The assistant director was speechless.
"But you are also very strange. Why do you still have to design the task trigger point in the Demon Fox Clan even though you know she is from the Demon Fox Clan?"
"Who said we were in the Demon Fox Clan?" the assistant director cried, "The main city of each clan has a task trigger point. In a large place like the City of Chaos, there are more than a dozen trigger points. As long as one of them is triggered, the others will be invalidated and replaced with a one-time small task. How can we blame us? We just don't give the trigger point to the Demon Fox Clan because the girl is in the Demon Fox Clan? Other Demon Fox Clan players will not kill us even if they know."
"It seems really weird."
“That’s it.”
