Chapter 425
Northern Court, Tree Shade Transit Station.
The station manager, Xie Yi, talked with Yao Jun, the director of the Magic Bureau.
“…… You want to buy a high purity source crystal with any attribute? There are no requirements?”
“Not really. We just want anything cheap.”
Yao Jun: “……”
‘Each attribute of the source crystal has a corresponding group of hunters. How can there be cheap source crystals?’
The elemental-type high purity source crystals were suitable for many people and were in short supply. Hence, it was generally impossible to sell them to the public unless they were exchanged for items of equal value.
But there were specific attributes of high-purity source crystals, such as blood attributes, such as etching attributes …… their affinity with normal hunters was really low. There’s a danger that the attributes might clash.
Yao Jun pondered his options, whether to trade them or just sell them.
Xie Yi continued, “We also need some Dream Water, about a hundred grams.”
“Dream Water?”
Xie Yi took out a picture showing a colorful water drop with a description of the item’s characteristics below.
Yao Jun carefully examined it and suddenly remembered a certain item, “What do you want the Mirror …… Dream Water for?”
“I don’t know about that. After all, I’m just an errand boy.” Xie Yi spread his hands.
Yao Jun was speechless. A few days ago, Xie Yi won against Zhu Long, unleashing the might of firearms.
The two of them bargained for some time.
In the end, Tree Shade purchased eight thousand units of high purity source crystal from the Northern Court, as well as 80 grams of Dream Water.
As a price, it was necessary to provide the Northern Court with one hundred B-grade custom weapons, as well as to help the Northern Court resolve the 4th age powerhouse occupying an ample sanctuary.
……
“That’s not a problem; fortunately, the Northern Court possesses the Water of Dreams.”
Tang Yu was able to gather ten thousand units of high purity source crystals, several major mines stocked, plus the ones in his own spatial ring. But the result was bound to lead to a short supply of cultivation resources for the next period, and it’s best to be able to trade from the Northern Court.
And the Dream Water, which was something that has never even been heard of.
Over at the transit station, Xie Yi requested that the transaction be made as soon as possible.
Five hours after Tang Yu sent the news to Xie Yi through the communication device, eight thousand high purity source crystal units were finally sent to the territory through the teleportation array. He himself took another two thousand units and rushed to buy the nightmare golem drawings.
The lavender-tinged parchment scroll drawings flew out and landed in his hands. Tang Yu refreshed hundreds of times and finally put together a set of four Nightmare Golem drawings, cloak, scythe, seat, and treasure.
It’s very expensive!
……
The workshop.
After the territorial fit was raised and Tang Yu’s in-depth understanding of his newly upgraded territory, a new manufacturing model was opened. He no longer needed to put the material in manually. He just placed it in the warehouse when manufacturing. The materials were automatically consumed, just like a building system.
Much more convenient.
However, the manufacturing button still needs to be manually controlled by him.
When he first chose to create the Nightmare Golem, a progress bar slowly advanced on the display.
The slow progress was only compared to the usual manufacturing of high-level rune equipment, less than a minute, along with a “drop” sound, a puff of black smoke from the exit of the workshop’s black box, quickly turned into a human form.
“Nightmare puppet?”
Tang Yu tried to check it out. When his spiritual power got in contact with the puppet, the nightmare puppet’s appearance changed. Even Tang Yu’s vision was affected by this peculiar phenomenon. His perspective was split in two, seeing the changed Nightmare Puppet on one side, and seeing himself through the Nightmare’s eyes on the other.
“Weird.”
……
Two hours later.
At the back of the mountain, a figure wearing a cloak and holding a scythe was hovering in the air, his figure becoming illusory from time to time, disappearing and suddenly emerging from another place.
“Nightmare puppet has the ability to shuttle between reality and illusion, and it can also be manipulated from a distance.” The figure murmured. His voice was somewhat similar to Tang Yu’s, while in fact, it was also him who was controlling it from behind.
In terms of battle power, the Nightmare Puppet performed relatively average, only slightly stronger than Yan Dingtian. Its behavior pattern was rather rigid, far from being comparable to No. 1 and No. 2. It also couldn’t become stronger through cultivation and couldn’t learn new battle techniques.
The nightmare puppet becomes stronger in only one way by devouring dark attribute source crystals.
“Another krypton crystal consumer…”
Although this was the case, Tang Yu was satisfied.
The Nightmare Puppet itself only had one ability, which was to shift between reality and illusion. When entering the illusory space, the Nightmare Puppet could not have an effect on the outside world, so its combat power was not strong, but ……
The illusory space was not at the same scale as reality.
Tang Yu recalled that he had just manipulated the Nightmare Puppet with just a gentle leap and appeared in the back of the mountain a few kilometers away.
“And the nightmare puppet control, unlike other puppets …… Other puppets can only be controlled if I can see them, basically their range is equal to my perception power, but the nightmare puppet… I can split my vision with them, so… long-range manipulation shouldn’t be a problem.”
To verify this, the Nightmare Puppet entered a flowing void space under Tang Yu’s control - he had ordered in advance that the general control was disconnected, and the Nightmare Puppet would automatically return to the castle in ten minutes.
One minute ……
Two minutes ……
In that flowing space, the connection between Tang Yu and the Nightmare Puppet remained tight. A moment later, the Nightmare finally leaped, and the illusory figure solidified and appeared in the real world.
Surrounded by desolate land, buildings crawling with green vines, old trees, dim crows.
That wasn’t his territory anymore.
And a part of Tang Yu’s spirit still remains in the nightmare puppet, as if having bilocation ……
The idea was to raise the right hand, grasp the hilt of the scythe and swing it out with force, pure source power into a knife mane, cutting hundreds of meters long gully.
“Although you can’t learn any skills, a transcendent is transcendent, and moreover, the Nightmare Puppet made with the Evil Dragon Clan Soul Crystals as its core also inherits the fundamental ability of the Evil Dragon Clan transcendent.”…
The Nightmare Puppet stretched out his left hand, as white and tender as a human, a gray airflow spurted out violently from his palm, and everywhere he went, both grass and trees and buildings burned up silently.
Visible to the naked eye, the grass and trees withered, the building walls grew older, a crack snaked.
Special ability!
An extremely strong erosion ability!
“With this ability… their lack of combat ability wouldn’t be a problem …… combat, remote control, with the ability to virtual reality shuttle, warp, it’s pretty good, no wonder the nightmare golem intelligence was low, but anyway, as long as I am the one controlling it, what use is their intelligence ah!“
………
The Nightmare Puppet back to the territory.
After taking the return scroll, the figure becomes lighter, crossed into the colorful illusory space.
Continuously shuttling through the fabric of illusion.
According to the previous experience, the distance span in the illusory space was far higher than the reality—what a godly technique. The only problem was that it was difficult to identify the direction and did not know where the landing point was located.
The moment you reappear in reality, you fall directly into a trap, also very possible. But… Although the nightmare puppet was not strong in combat, their ability to escape was excellent.
Not a big problem.
Tang Yu was greedy. He wanted this ability so bad!
……
His consciousness was divided into two, cultivating and controlling the nightmare puppet.
Finally, Tang Yu felt that it was about time.
The Nightmare Puppet jumped out of the illusory space, surrounded by the devastated old city.
There was a great density of demonic beasts here, and just as the Nightmare puppet appeared, the demonic beasts roaming the streets were surprised to see that an alien had emerged from among them.
A scythe turned from illusion to real and was held in the hands of the nightmare puppet, a round moon-shaped light from the scythe cut out, in an instant, hundreds of meters around the demonic beasts into pieces, and buildings collapsed layer by layer.
“The force seems to be too strong.”
Tang Yu smiled bitterly, but he was the one who controlled it. It seemed to be far less flexible than the main body.
At this time, the nightmare puppet looked up into the distance. With a flash, its speed had broken through the sound barrier and shot off into the distance.
……
The team of eight people wearing animal skin clothing, each in their own way. Some were checking their equipment; some were stepping on the spot, observing the county’s environment.
“Captain, this county is not good, ah, the density of demonic beasts is also too high …… wait, how there is a man there! “
The alarming sound made several team members look over, but only to see smoke and dust, a figure wearing a cloak and holding a scythe, suspended outside the eighteen-story rooftop.
‘A ghost?’
‘Ghosts!’
The eight-man team looked terrified, but they couldn’t scream as if their throats were choked.
Just when they thought they were about to die, the cloaked figure, whose face could not be seen, spoke, “Three questions, where is this place? What is the name of the largest shelter nearby? Is there a secret realm or crystal mine in this area?”
A few people gave out the information they knew, lest they be a step behind and become dead by the sword.
A few moments later, the oppressive aura was gone, the captain carefully raised his head, but the cloaked man had gone.
……
For two days in a row, Tang Yu stayed inside the territory and manipulated the nightmare puppet to wave around outside.
The nightmare scouting efficiency was very high as a scout that can go straight to the past. The northern court has a lot of information.
The nightmare puppets can be used to scout out less populated areas without any fear. Everywhere they go, they meet different hunters and ask them about it, and if they have bad intentions, they are killed directly.
At this time, the message from Xie Yi came.
