Chapter 261: Come on the River(1/2)
"Hoo! Hoo!"
Cang Xu opened his mouth wide and breathed harder than ever before.
His eyes were full of confusion.
"I...amn't I already dead?"
The confusion immediately subsided, Cang Xu realized something, and quickly checked the space bag on his chest.
In the bag, he found the scapegoat.
This was obtained through forced purchase by the survivors at the Double Eye Island auction.
The scapegoat is shaped like a doll, made of pale green wood, with withered yellow grass on its head as hair. The doll's eyes and nose are extremely crooked, giving it a strange and eerie aesthetic.
Now, this scapegoat has collapsed, its limbs are separated from the body, and its torso is shattered. The largest fragment is half a head.
Cangxu and Zidi bought a surrogate puppet and gave it to the dragon boy to use.
For the survivors, the dragon boy is the most important and critical figure.
But before Cang Xu attended the gathering of the undead, the dragon boy considered the risks of this trip and handed over the scapegoat to him.
"It was the scapegoat that brought me back to life."
"No, it was the captain who saved my life!"
Amidst the intense fear, Cang Xu felt a warm current of emotion surge up.
"Is this the water of the Styx?!" After realizing his situation, he stood up suddenly as if he was electrocuted.
Before, he almost lost his life when he looked directly at the River Styx. Now that he touches the water of the River Styx, what kind of consequences will happen?
Cangxu had suffered a loss and was extremely afraid of the Styx. He jumped directly onto the bed and completely escaped from the water of the Styx.
"Huh?" The mysterious man in black subconsciously turned sideways and looked in the direction of Cang Xu.
The moment Cang Xu was resurrected, the breath of life was revealed, and the man in black immediately felt it.
"Actually resurrected?" The man in black was stunned for a moment, and then he guessed the answer.
"It seems to be the scapegoat." The information obtained by the man in black was very sufficient.
Cang Xu and Zidi bought a lot of things at the auction, and the scapegoat was one of them.
Many people know this information.
The man in black and the sea snake girl can follow Cang Xu's clue to commit the crime, so they will naturally not miss this important information.
The man in black turned his head back and ignored Cang Xu.
It’s just a silver level, nothing to worry about!
The man in black thought to himself: If he can easily kill Cang Xu once, he can naturally kill him a second time.
He is so powerful that he turns a deaf ear to the cries of the little prince who is just around the corner. He has only one real goal.
That's the ship ghost!
"Ship Ghost, what are your thoughts?" the man in black asked.
A heavy sigh came from the ship ghost: "Crying Wind, put your weapons away."
Crying Wind's eyes narrowed.
Ship Ghost continued: "I know I am not afraid of death, but at this moment, there is really no need to make unnecessary sacrifices."
Cifeng gritted his teeth and finally put away the knife.
The ship ghost said in a weak tone: "I still don't know where you come from, what force you belong to, and what your specific identity is. If I surrender, what treatment will I get?"
As soon as these words came out, the intention of the ship ghost to surrender was very obvious.
The little prince cheered up.
The corners of the man in black's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a smile.
The atmosphere in the cabin was greatly relaxed.
Cang Xu stood on the bed and looked at the water level of the River Styx on the wooden floor, which was rising rapidly.
"The ghost ship is leaking and sinking!"
"The ship ghost did not repair it."
"what happened?"
"What happened after I died?"
Cang Xu looked at the cabin where the man in black, the little prince, and Crying Wind were.
Although his line of sight was blocked by the wall, he could still clearly sense the life breath of the three of them.
"It's not fighting, it seems like it's a confrontation?" Cang Xu still didn't know the situation at this time.
But this does not prevent him from acting first.
He took out a flying spell scroll and tore it open on the spot.
His body levitated, carefully keeping a distance from the water of the Styx, and then flew up.
Cang Xu got off the bed, pushed open the cabin door, and climbed up the ship's ladder to the deck.
He fell directly to the deck, his whole body was cold, his vision went black, and he felt very dizzy!
This is just a simple flying technique, which consumes Cang Xu like this.
Although he was resurrected, his condition was extremely bad!
Cang Xu quickly checked himself.
He was horrified to find that his left chest was penetrated from front to back, his heart was gone, and he had been stabbed to pieces by the man in black.
His whole body was filled with violent negative energy.
Obviously, these negative energies come from the water of the Styx and are eroding Cang Xu's body and soul crazily.
There is also a miserable green force that is struggling to maintain Cang Xu's life.
Most of the green power is lingering in Cangxu's left chest, replacing the heart and supplying energy to Cangxu.
At the same time, there are wisps of green light extending from the heart, like tree roots and vines, extending into Cang Xu's internal organs and limbs.
"This is the power of the scapegoat, the magical power of the Voodoo sect."
After Cang Xu checked it, he immediately discovered that the green power was fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although he escaped from the water of the Styx, the previous immersion had filled Cangxu's broken body with a huge amount of negative energy.
"This negative energy is dragging me back into death!"
"what to do?"
Cold sweat broke out on Cang Xu's forehead, and he was thinking anxiously about how to save himself.
He first thought of the art of reducing karma and reducing burdens.
The supplementary book of magicians from Ship Ghost is still in his hands and has not been taken away by the man in black.
But the karma-cutting and burden-reducing techniques inside have been used up.
It is impossible for Cang Xu to cast spells by himself.
"By the way, there are also potions!" Cang Xu quickly went into the storage bag and took out some potions.
He drank these potions or poured them directly into the hole in his heart.
The effect of the medicine was terrible.
"There are very few potions suitable for the life of the undead."
"Now my body is full of negative energy, which greatly reduces the effect of the medicine."
Most of the potions refined by Zidi are bronze, black iron grade, and silver grade potions are rarely produced.
As for the gold-level potion, she currently has no ability to refine it.
After using the potion once, Cangxu's bad condition was not much relieved.
He took out some black crystals.
These crystals may be long or short, large or small, but they are all in the shape of long strips. They are deep and dark, exuding an inexplicable chill, they are soul crystals.
The use of Soul Crystal is very simple.
Cang Xu can obtain the nourishment of the soul crystal just by holding it and communicating with his spirit.
The soul crystals shrunk rapidly in his hands, like ice cubes encountering high temperatures, and finally disappeared.
Cang Xu used soul crystals continuously, and his soul received a lot of nourishment, forcibly boosting his spirit.
"I finally feel a little better." Cang Xu's original dizzy feeling weakened a lot.
But the problem of negative energy has not been solved.
