Chapter 567 Interrogation of Zhao Yue
[Drawings for making the Shadow Asylum Badge: You can make a badge. Materials required: Sixth-order crystal core*1, Shadow of the Dark Beast*1]
[ Shadow Asylum Badge: Unknown attributes]
The last loot package contained only one drawing, but Wang Tao was a little surprised when he saw the name of this drawing.
What is the relationship between this "Shadow Asylum Badge" and the one-time "Shadow Asylum" status he just obtained?
The names are so similar, they must be related!
Wang Tao immediately took out the corresponding materials to make it.
A moment later, a black badge appeared in his hand.
This badge is completely black, with some faint black patterns on it. I don’t know what material it is made of, but it looks quite delicate anyway.
Of course, what matters is not the appearance, but its properties.
[Shadow Asylum Badge]
[Level 6 (Epic)]
[Dark attribute defense +10%, if you carry the Shadow Asylum status and you have the Dark Awakening status, then the Shadow Asylum status It will not disappear after being triggered, but It will be on a 3-day cooldown]
“Huh?”
This badge adds 10% dark attribute defense, which is dispensable for Wang Tao, because he has dark attributes. Awakening, the dark attribute defense is already relatively high. The focus is on its second function, and this function made Wang Tao's eyes shine a little.
He was just talking about whether the state of Shadow Protection was strong or not, but unfortunately it was a one-time use and could only save one life.
Now, the properties of the Shadow Asylum badge can make the Shadow Asylum status permanent! Although there is a 3-day cooling time limit, this is much better than a one-time use!
Without any hesitation, Wang Tao immediately put the badge on his body. Then he saw his condition changed.
[Status: Shadow Asylum (Permanent)]
The word "Permanent" is added after Shadow Asylum!
"Haha, that's great!"
Wang Tao suddenly grinned.
He has many methods, many of which are life-saving methods. But when it comes to "true life-saving", this Shadow Asylum ranks first!
Wang Tao even wants to become a shadow and feel it now.
But this was a near-death state after all. Wang Tao thought about it and let it go. There was no need to seek abuse.
And one thing to note is that you should keep this Shadow Asylum badge with you at all times. It is best not to take it off if nothing happens. Because the prerequisite for this function to take effect is that you have the shadow protection status. If the Shadow Asylum state is triggered when the badge is not worn, then it is a one-time event...
Wang Tao briefly introduced the Shadow Asylum state to Lan Yulian and Jiang Shixue.
The two girls were very surprised when they heard it, and they were also happy for Wang Tao. With this state, my ability to survive has improved a lot.
After checking the dark beast's trophies, Wang Tao looked at the thing he was most looking forward to - the Black Moon Lily.
The Black Moon Lily has matured. Compared with before, its black flowers are fully opened, and the stamens inside can be seen. But its stamen is a black moon. This black moon moves, from new moon to full moon, and from full moon to new moon, just like human breathing, in a cycle... This should be the name of Black Moon Lily. origin.
Wang Tao frowned after seeing the properties of this Black Moon Lily.
[Black Moon Lily: After activation, a black moon domain is formed, which lasts for 10 minutes (the black moon lily is destroyed after activation, and activation requires 10,000 awakening energy)]
"Black Moon Domain? What is this? ?”
Looking at the above introduction, the Black Moon Lily is obviously a one-time thing, somewhat similar to the Shadow Bead.
But...activating the Black Moon Lily requires 10,000 awakening energy?
Wang Tao's upper limit of awakening energy is still less than 10,000. Although he has not focused much on increasing his awakening energy recently, after all, a few thousand awakening energy is enough for him to use.
"It seems that the upper limit of awakening energy needs to be raised."
Wang Tao really wanted to know what this black moon realm is...
At this time, lying on the golden eagle Zhao Yue moved his fingers on his back and opened his eyes drowsily.
“Ahem...”
He subconsciously wanted to get up, but Wang Tao quickly held him down.
"Be honest if you don't want to die."
After seeing Wang Tao, Zhao Yue's face became visibly angry, and he was about to attack Wang Tao without saying a word.
But with his current strength, he is no match for Wang Tao.
After hearing a burst of crackling, Zhao Yue fell to the ground again, and Wang Tao stepped on his back rudely.
"You continue to jump?"
"Ho ho—"
Although Zhao Yue was stepped on by Wang Tao, he still had a ferocious look on his face.
"You answer whatever I ask. If you don't answer, I will throw you away. Do you understand?"
Wang Tao frowned and asked.
"Damn..."
Zhao Yue didn't seem to care about the current environment at all. He just stared at Wang Tao as if he wanted to eat Wang Tao alive.
Wang Tao’s frown deepened.
When he entered the negative third floor again, he felt that something was not right with Zhao Yue's mental state.
Looking at Zhao Yue's appearance now, it seems that there is something wrong with his brain.
If he doesn't cooperate, it will be difficult for Wang Tao to get information from him!
Kill directly?
It feels a bit too wasteful...
Wang Tao asked for a while, and found that Zhao Yue only said things like damn and wanting to kill Wang Tao, and then wanted to rush up and fight Wang Tao. He couldn't say anything else and turned a blind eye to Wang Tao's various threats...
"What should I do?"
Wang Tao and Lan Yulian looked at each other. They could feel that this Zhao Yue was not pretending, and that he really had a mental problem.
I don’t know what he summoned before...
“Shall I try to control him?”
Jiang Shixue suddenly said.
“No, it’s too dangerous!”
After hearing her words, Wang Tao subconsciously refused.
After all, Zhao Yue is a genuine sixth-level awakener. If he controls the sixth-level spirit with fifth-level strength, he will most likely be counterattacked.
However, Jiang Shixue looked at Wang Tao strangely.
"Brother, I won't be revolted..."
"Uh..."
Only then did Wang Tao realize that Jiang Shixue's control method was different from his.
To put it simply, his [mental development] is relatively complex and he knows a little bit about everything. If done improperly, there will be backlash.
And Jiang Shixue’s [Puppet] is a pure control ability. If the control is successful, then she can control the opponent at will, and the control time is directly proportional to the opponent's strength. If she fails, Jiang Shixue will not suffer backlash, but her awakening energy will be wasted.
So if Jiang Shixue is allowed to control Zhao Yue, the success rate may not be 100%, but it will definitely not be counterattacked. At most, it will waste some awakening energy.
“Okay, then give it a try.”
Wang Tao nodded.
Jiang Shixue immediately looked at Zhao Yue, her eyes glowing slightly red.
Then... nothing happened.
"Failed..."
Jiang Shixue suddenly frowned her delicate eyebrows.
"It's normal. After all, he is at the sixth level, and you are only at the fifth level. His mental strength is definitely not bad, and he may have level suppression..." Wang Tao comforted her, and Jiang Shixue continued to control.
Failure, failure, failure...
Failed several times in a row, wasting a lot of awakening energy.
Just when Wang Tao thought that Jiang Shixue could not control beyond the level, Zhao Yue's somewhat crazy face suddenly stiffened, and Jiang Shixue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, it worked! It's just that the time is a bit short..."
"Awesome! How long can it be controlled exactly?"
"Uh...only 10 seconds...this is because of his He has a mental problem, otherwise the time would be shorter. And because he has a mental problem, he may not be able to ask some questions..."
Jiang Shixue scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.
“……”
Wang Tao wanted to control Zhao Yue, not by asking him to fight, but by asking him questions. He couldn't ask him many useful things in 10 seconds.
Wang Tao immediately asked Zhao Yue.
"What's your name?"
"Zhao Yue..."
Zhao Yue spoke with a stiff expression.
"How did you advance to the sixth level?"
"I robbed someone else's summoning altar...to sacrifice..."
Wang Tao was not surprised when he heard this.
He had previously speculated from the 100% impurities in Ge Fuxing's body that this Zhao Yue might have been a sacrifice, but he didn't know whether he escaped or killed the user of the summoning altar. Now through Zhao Yue's words, it is basically certain that he killed the other party.
But Wang Tao still asked.
"You killed the last user of the summoning altar? Who was he?"
"Yes, I sacrificed him...I don't remember..."
His, It’s a bit awesome!
After becoming a sacrifice, you can basically declare death. But Zhao Yue was able to take away the summoning altar, and even killed the opponent and sacrificed the opponent... I have to say that his ability is indeed strong.
"That guy..."
"Damn it, I'm going to kill you!"
Wang Tao was about to ask him the next question when Zhao Yue woke up.
He regained his ferocious expression and stared at Wang Tao fiercely.
10 seconds is still too short...
Wang Tao thought for a while and said to the two women:
"Let's do this. I'll beat him up. Yulian, watch and don't let him die."
"Okay!"
I raised my fist and aimed at Zhao Yue. A sudden beating.
After beating Zhao Yue half to death, Wang Tao used his mental power to give him several sour mental attacks.
If Wang Tao uses his mental power to control Zhao Yue, there may be certain risks. But if you use mental power to attack him, the risk will be much less. In other words, with Zhao Yue's current state, Wang Tao will be fine if he attacks him casually.
"Ah——"
The feeling of mental attack is not pleasant. Zhao Yue was already beaten to the point of losing his strength by Wang Tao, but he was mentally attacked by Wang Tao. He yelled in pain and his eyes became blurry. .
"Ahem, I didn't control my strength well, I hit a bit hard..."
Wang Tao quickly withdrew some of his strength and attacked for a while, until Zhao Yue lay on the golden floor like a dead dog. Without even turning his eyes, Wang Tao finally stopped.
"Xiaoxue, you are controlling him."
Wang Tao even felt that he could control Zhao Yue now without Jiang Shixue. But for the sake of safety and efficiency, let Jiang Shixue do it.
“Okay!”
Jiang Shixue launched [Puppet on Strings] again against Zhao Yue. This time she controlled Zhao Yue immediately, but the control time remained the same, still 10 seconds. bell. 10 seconds seems to be the upper limit for Jiang Shixue to control a sixth-level awakener.
“Very good, keep asking!”
Wang Tao interrogated Zhao Yue again.
After that, Jiang Shixue spent a lot of awakened energy to control Zhao Yue. Although the control was successful every time because Zhao Yue was too weak, it could only be controlled for 10 seconds each time, which was somewhat inconvenient.
During this intermittent interrogation, Wang Tao obtained a lot of useful information, which made the three of them feel that their trip was worthwhile.
The first is the issue of Zhao Yue's promotion to the sixth level. Wang Tao originally thought that he was also a victim at first, but as he learned more about it, he found that he still thought too simply.
Zhao Yue has been a member of the Twilight Church for a long time. Before he got the summoning altar, he killed many compatriots. The reason why the Twilight Church has a bad reputation in the Silver Snake Base is directly related to him.
After that, he was framed and became a sacrifice, and he almost died. But the man didn't know much about the summoning altar and didn't know that the summoning altar could store sacrifices. He thought that the sacrifices had to be sacrificed on the spot, so he spared Zhao Yue's life.
Zhao Yue took this opportunity to set up a trap, killed the opponent in a thrilling manner, and took away the summoning altar.
After some research, Zhao Yue knew the function of the summoning altar, and immediately began a cruel hunting operation. Many innocent people died in his hands. His strength was out of control, as if Rising like a rocket.
However, promotion to the sixth level will reach the top, and the summoning altar cannot help him advance to the seventh level.
Because the seventh level and the sixth level are completely different, the gap between them is like the gap between the fourth level awakened person and the third level power user!
Promoting to the seventh level is not just about fusing the crystal core. You must meet some specific conditions before you can be promoted.
But what are the specific conditions... After Zhao Yue was promoted to the sixth level, he could vaguely feel something. He only knew that he did not have the conditions to advance to the seventh level. But he didn't know exactly what the conditions were.
However, he slowly figured out one of the conditions, which was related to the summoning altar. To be precise, it has something to do with summoning the "god" on the other side of the altar. It seems...that thing needs to be killed!
This is too difficult for Zhao Yue. After all, his strength is improved by the other party. He can sense that the other party's strength is ridiculously strong.
So don’t even think about advancing to the seventh level.
But what he didn't expect was that when he was outside, he suddenly discovered a shadow monster, also known as a dark beast.
He vaguely felt that killing the dark beast would also have a certain effect on his promotion to the seventh level. Although he didn't know what the specific use was, he trusted his intuition.
But he didn't expect that he underestimated the strength of the dark beast, which almost made him unable to come back. He had no choice but to return to the base and shake people off, taking advantage of the fact that the Dark Beast was also injured and captured it in one fell swoop!
The reason why he brought Ge Fuxing and the others was because he was prepared on the other hand. If the dark beast could not be eliminated, he would directly sacrifice everyone. Summon the "Light God" over!
"Light God" is the self-proclaimed name of the evil god in the summoning altar.
Guangshen told him that as long as he could come in person, Guangshen would not only help Zhao Yue solve his troubles, but also allow Zhao Yue to advance to the seventh level effortlessly.
Zhao Yue has harmed many people in his life. He definitely does not completely believe in the God of Light. This is just his last trump card.
In that situation, let alone Wang Tao's sneak attack on him, even if Wang Tao didn't sneak attack, he would not be able to deal with the dark beast. So he could only summon the God of Light.
Unexpectedly, the summoning failed!
The summoning altar was directly destroyed, and the God of Light failed to come over. Naturally, the promotion to the seventh level promised by the God of Light was also gone.
Zhao Yue didn’t know why he failed. He only heard the roar of the God of Light.
But the summoning did not completely fail - although the God of Light himself could not come over, he did come over with part of his power.
After this part of power entered Zhao Yue's body, Zhao Yue's strength directly doubled! However, since Zhao Yue's strength can no longer be improved, this doubling of strength is a temporary increase.
And after receiving this temporary improvement, the transcendent spirit had some problems, becoming violent, angry, and losing his mind... Then he was caught by Wang Tao.
He himself has some consciousness, but he cannot control himself. Jiang Shixue's forceful control over him actually made him sober...
