Chapter 110 Incomplete Exemption
Chapter 110 Incomplete Exemption
Xu Si stared blankly at his empty palm, carefully sensing the state of his body.
The [Protective Spirit] had somehow managed to wander to his heart.
It fell asleep on that strange, icy-crystal-colored object, and was not harmed by its coldness. Could it be that this little guy has really become a part of me?
Xu Si never expected that the price of [symbiosis] would take effect in this way, leaving no room for refusal.
At the same time, a strange sensation surfaced in his consciousness; it must have been the little guy's [malice perception].
This was completely different from the feeling he got from "Star Trails," and it was much more convenient.
To put it another way, perhaps "sixth sense" would be a more appropriate description; it's more like a bodily instinct.
Xu Si smiled wryly. It was quite nice for the little guy to be hiding inside his body.
At least we don't have to worry about the little guy getting killed sometime.
"Little guy?" Xu Si murmured to himself.
No response!
However, the "second heartbeat" seemed to be clearer, indicating that he was asleep.
Xu Si rubbed his temples. This guy really is...
Domineering yet somewhat cute.
He composed himself and turned his attention to the outside world.
The night was as dark as ink, and all the caravans tacitly extinguished their campfires and lights, including the Martial God caravan in the center of the square.
The wind on the Gobi Desert, carrying sand and gravel, blows over abandoned mines, becoming the perfect background sound for the night.
The campfire in the fire truck convoy's camp had already gone out, whether intentionally or by mutual understanding, it was unclear.
Under the starlight, Fu Xiaojian, Su Su, Ta Shan, Shao Bing, and others had also entered a state of light sleep or alertness.
Jiao Jiao was already drooling as she leaned on the steering wheel of the pickup truck. It was a bit much to ask her to stay up all night after a long day.
Xiao Luo was also dozing off in the Mengshi vehicle, his head bobbing up and down.
Everything seemed calm.
However, in Xu Si's newly formed "malicious perception," there were several distinct "malicious thoughts" outside the convoy, slowly heading towards the camp of the Xinhuo convoy, especially... the pickup truck where Jiao Jiao was.
There are only five paths of malice, as dazzling as candlelight in the dark.
The detection of characteristics ended, and Xu Si's "Star Trails" unfolded.
Just like infrared imaging, the five people's every move was clearly visible. Judging from the energy fluctuations, two of them were even superhumans. They really went all out.
Xu Si sneered inwardly.
Jiao Jiao's healing and purification abilities are clearly coveted by other car teams.
Time slowly passed, and suddenly one of the evil thoughts became incredibly clear, violent, and... undisguised!
Xu Si suddenly opened his eyes, his body sliding off the car as if weightless. The concealment effect of the [Empty Cloak] had already covered his entire body, making him almost blend into the shadows.
He didn't wake up anyone else; these were all his purification points!
At the same time, he had already blown the [Skull Raven Whistle], but no sound came out, and Xu Si thought something was wrong.
However, the men who rushed towards the Pikachu were all stunned.
Apart from the two superhumans who performed slightly better, the three ordinary people collapsed to the ground like they had lost their souls.
Xu Si's figure was like a ghost, so they couldn't be allowed to sleep wherever they went!
The Sword of Punishment in his hand drew several almost invisible blood-red lines in the dark night.
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"
Three soft sounds rang out almost simultaneously; they were the sounds of three ordinary people falling asleep on the spot.
Only the two superhumans who could barely retain some consciousness had a line of blood suddenly appear on their necks.
There was no beheading?
Xu Si was a little puzzled, after all, he had been quite considerate of these two guys just now.
[Purify the filthy souls of humans, Purification Points +100]
[Purify the filthy souls of humans, Purification Points +100]
[Purify the filthy souls of humans, Purification Points +100]
By this time, the two extraordinary beings were fully awake, and the pain in their necks was unmistakable.
"Enemy attack!"
Meanwhile, Shao Bing, Su Su, Ta Shan, and others were also awake, and the little girl looked at Shao Bing, who had suddenly spoken out, in a daze.
Shao Bing has reconnaissance skills and was the first to react.
【ruling】
Xu Si was even faster. With a slight twist of his wrist, the sword flashed again, like the Grim Reaper's scythe, slicing across the necks of the two superhumans who had almost completed their transformation.
The two beasts didn't even have a chance to roar before Xu Si chopped off their heads one after another.
Their appearances are more like the "wolf" and "jackal" from textbooks, but at this moment they have all become Xu Si's purification points.
[Purify a level 1 corrupted soul, purification points +1000]
[Purify a level 1 corrupted soul, purification points +1000]
Are they just two sequences of 1?
Where did they get the guts?
This is a complete crushing defeat in terms of sequence, in terms of wonder, and in terms of perception!
"How is it?" Shao Bing came to help immediately.
"They must be after Jiao Jiao!" Fu Xiaojian looked over the corpses on the ground, especially taking a second look at the two beasts.
"Ah! Brother Dao!" Jiao Jiao realized what had happened, and Su Su stood guard by her car, preventing her from getting out.
As for Tashan, he was assigned to protect the members around the bus to prevent them from being lured away.
Xu Si remained expressionless.
With "Star Trail" fully activated, a faint "second heartbeat" also began to pulsate gently—within the range of the [Protective Spirit's] malicious perception, there were no further abnormalities for the time being.
He bent down and deftly began to search the two superhuman corpses.
Logically, the first sword strike should have severed their heads, so he suspected that these two guys were carrying something.
Sure enough, in the pocket of the leader, a short, stocky superhuman who resembled a wolf, Xu Si felt a long, narrow object that was icy cold to the touch.
[Current Rare Item: Huodao Stone]
[Ranking of Oddities: 3472]
Feature 1: Sharpening
Description: A fine sword is forged through tempering; it can sharpen any bladed object to achieve its sharpness, with the sharpness directly proportional to the time spent tempering.
Feature 2: Incomplete exemption
Description: Has a chance to grant or reduce one instance of weapon-based fatal damage to yourself and an ally. The chance of granting the immunity is inversely proportional to the effect and the severity of the damage taken.
[Price: Hiding in obscurity, requiring the holder to nourish it daily with their own life essence.]
[Comment: Humility is the most powerful form of showing off. (Note: Don't actually use it as a whetstone; it could also be a savior.)]
When Xu Si saw Feature 2, his eyes lit up, but then he smiled bitterly. No wonder the ranking was so low. It's a pity about this feature.
The worst thing in combat is this kind of "incomplete immunity".
You should say exemption!
It may happen, or it may not happen;
Who would dare use that?
What if I lose the bet?
If it were a complete immunity to a fatal injury, it would definitely be a rare item ranked within the top two thousand.
This is what makes Xu Si so regrettable.
However, those two guys must have triggered the 'incomplete exemption' feature just now. Those two bastards were really lucky.
However, meeting Xu Si was incredibly lucky.
