Chapter 58: Falling into a trap (please follow up)

"This is."

“It was the city lord’s thunder tiger beast that was roaring. After it killed the city lord, we controlled it and locked it in an iron cage.”

“This crazy and strange disease is most likely a curse. It may be cured by using the purification moves of light spiritual beasts or some exorcism moves.”

 Liu Guoan reminded me.

"Hey, spiritual beasts that can ward off evil spirits are rare. There used to be a herbal medicine shop in the Golden City. The owner of the shop, Granny Lan, had a black dog demon that could ward off evil spirits. But when I sent people to find her, I found that she had died a week ago. Suddenly disappeared."

Hearing this, Chen Mo felt a little creepy.

 This is too much of a coincidence.

Before the strange disease took hold, the only spiritual beast with the ability to exorcise evil happened to disappear?

“How about I go take a look at that thunder tiger beast? Maybe we can help it.”

 Liu Guoan thought for a while and said.

He originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but the beast's roar was too miserable, so he finally relented.

 “Okay then, come with me.”

Song Qingshan’s eyes flickered, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly answered.

Soon, under his leadership, everyone came to a wide courtyard.

 In the center of the courtyard is a large iron cage, which contains a black and white striped thunder tiger beast. At this moment, the eyes of this thunder tiger beast were red, filled with violent killing intent. Its body is as skinny as a stick, and the hair on large areas of its body has fallen out, and some places have even begun to rot.

Seeing everyone, the Thunder Tiger Beast began to slam its body against the iron cage crazily, but it was in vain. Its body was covered with spiritual power locks, and it could not mobilize a trace of spiritual power.

　　It is like suffering from the symptoms of a strange disease called "lost mind madness".

But it’s a bit too weak.

 Chen Mo had doubts in his heart. Even if the city lord's palace couldn't dispel the curse on the thunder tiger beast, couldn't it still cure its injuries?

 And judging from the appearance of the Thunder Tiger Beast, it must have been several days since it had eaten.

When he first entered the city lord's mansion, he felt something indescribably weird. Now that he saw this skinny thunder tiger beast, he felt even more weird.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the blood in the Thunder Tiger Beast's eyes dissipated, as if it had regained its consciousness, and roared again.

 Chen Mo, who has the talent of animal language, understood the meaning of the thunder tiger beast's roar - run!

Chen Mo was startled, then forced himself to calm down, and at the same time glanced at Liu Guoan.

“Ahem, I’m sorry, this thunder tiger beast is extremely ill, and there’s nothing we can do. Now that the deal has been completed, let’s take the first step.”

Liu Guoan said, preparing to run away with his team.

He had noticed something strange about the City Lord's Mansion before, but now he saw the look in Chen Mo's eyes and immediately reacted.

 The deputy city lord in front of me has a big problem!

In line with the idea that doing more is worse than doing less, it’s better to go first!

 They are just here to transport goods, there is no need to get involved in any conspiracy.

If the deputy city lord is really related to the strange disease ravaging the Golden City, the most important thing for them now is to report the news to the company.

 For such a big company, there will always be big bosses to handle it.

 In short, let’s go back and shake people first.

 “I want to leave, but it’s too late.”

However, just as the Thunder Team was about to leave, Song Qingshan snorted coldly, and then a dozen soldiers wearing armor ran in from outside, surrounding everyone, and there were spiritual beasts following them.

 Obviously, these soldiers are all spiritual masters!

"You want to leave after catching my spirit beast. How can it be so cheap?"

Song Qingshan changed his face instantly and said with a sneer.

The Pale Ghost Bat King that the Thunder Team encountered in Thunderstorm Mountain was his spirit beast!

 This morning, he asked the Pale Ghost Bat King to lead a group of bats to spread the disease to the spiritual beasts in the nearby area, and then collect their corpses.

But not long ago, he suddenly lost "contact" with the Pale Ghost Bat King, and the bats did not come back.

 The moment Chen Mo and others entered the city lord's mansion, Song Qingshan once again sensed that his spirit beast was nearby!

 So he roughly judged that it was the group of "businessmen" in front of him who captured his own Pale Ghost Bat King.

 Seeing that the deputy city lord was so angry, Chen Mo's heart sank.

  It’s a bit unlucky to catch someone’s spirit beast and then talk to them about business with such arrogance.

　　They are simply throwing themselves into a trap when they come to the City Lord's Mansion! It is estimated that when Song Qingshan stepped into the City Lord's Mansion, he was thinking about **** them!

The flag that Sister Yun Shu set before setting off must have taken effect!

 “Chirp!” (Don’t be afraid, I’m here!)

Feeling the tense atmosphere, Xiaojiu looked stern and was ready to fight at all times.

A complex gray summoning circle appeared in front of Song Qingshan, and then a huge black spider leg slowly stretched out from the circle.

With other spider legs and bodies extending, a giant black spider appeared in the courtyard.

Except for the eight eyes on its head, each of its spider legs and body are covered with black and white pupils, which looks weird and abnormal.

This is Song Qingshan’s other spiritual beast, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Spider.

Chen Mo scanned its information with his spiritual master bracelet—

  【Spiritual beast name: Hundred-eyed Demon Spider】

 【Growth Level: Command Level 7】

 【Race Level: Commander Level 9】

  【Description: Evil spirit beasts, possessing the ability to devour the souls of living beings. When you look into its eyes, your soul will be taken away by it. 】

 Evil spirit beast!

The most likely person to spread [Mind-Heart Disease] is the Hundred-Eyed Demonic Spider in front of us!

 Liu Guoan took a sip of the soju in the flask, and his expression turned bad.

The growth level of this Hundred-Eyed Demonic Spider is Commander Level 7, which is a full 5 levels higher than his Purple Lightning Lightning Zombie!

Although the growth level cannot represent everything, the number and strength of the opponent's spiritual beasts are now much stronger than them.

 If a fight breaks out, the probability of them escaping is extremely low.

“Were you responsible for the strange diseases in the city? Did you kill the city lord and spread the curse in order to gain power?”

 Liu Guoan roughly guessed the cause and effect.

Song Qingshan spread the disease of heartlessness, killed the city lord, and then suddenly told the residents of Golden City that he had found a solution to the curse when people were panicking.

He can naturally become the city lord.

"That's right. Of course, I'm just one of the participants. And this is just one of my purposes. The most important thing is to let my Hundred-Eyed Demon Spider advance quickly."

Song Qingshan raised the corners of his mouth and said with some pride.

The way for the advancement of evil spirit beasts is quite special. They need to absorb all kinds of negative energy. Plague and death are their best nutrients!

“If you kill us, aren’t you afraid of the revenge of the forces behind us?”

 Liu Guoan was stalling for time while thinking about countermeasures.

"Oh, you think I don't know your true identity? You are not big businessmen from Yunzhou, but invaders from another world, right? You can't see the light at all! And who has no backer? Already?"

Song Qingshan chuckled and seemed to enjoy this moment of being the mastermind behind the scenes in front of others.

"Three years ago, Zhou Hong wouldn't be where he is now without your help. Now I just want to get back what originally belonged to me. Obediently release my pale ghost bat king, and I can keep you alone. Whole body."

 Looking at Song Qingshan who was "pretending to be cool", Chen Mo on the side thought of a good idea.

 Perhaps we can break the situation!
