Chapter 366: Chapter 217: Glazed Karma Fire, Chaos Origin Dragon_1
[Note down the location marked in the letter, and leave the tavern ...]
[You traverse through the narrow alleyways, heading towards the city gate...]
[...]
[The streets are deserted at night, and the edge of ’Fugang City’ is not far off. The city walls are not as tall and sturdy as you imagined, standing roughly the size of two-story buildings.]
[Under the city gate, several sword-wielding warriors stand guard...]
The warrior that Lin Xun is currently possessing is also a security officer in the city. He’s a colleague of the guards who stay at the city gate, which means he doesn’t have to switch to the ninja shell to sneak out of the city.
With a friendly greeting to the guards, he easily crosses the city gate.
[You reach the wilderness outside the city, and according to the location marked in the ’Anonymous Letter’, you quickly leave ’Fugang City’ and arrive at the designated place.]
[Here, there is a large and sturdy cherry blossom tree that stands out under the bright moonlight.]
[A figure waits for you under the tree. When you approach, you notice that they are dressed in black, their face masked. They don’t look like a ninja.]
[This is because ninja uniforms are often tight with the cuffs tightly secured to facilitate movement, while the figure’s clothing is loose, clearly not a ninja outfit.]
[As soon as they see you, they draw the sword from their waist and slash at you without uttering a word!]
[The strong wind hits you square in the face, not leaving any time to dodge. You reflexively raise your sword to block the attack.]
[The clash of swords echoes with a ’clink’ sound, and your weapon breaks into two halves.]
[The remnant of the sword energy keeps moving towards you, causing a chill on your chest and abdomen.]
[The sharp sword grazes your skin, tearing your clothes and almost gutting you...]
[The figure pulls the sword back, their voice hoarse under the mask, suggesting that you should fight them in your true form.]
"True form?"
Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed. He speculated that this person might have noticed the anomaly in the duel ring earlier, which is why he invited him to fight outside the city.
By the ’true form’, he probably meant the Little Dragon shell.
However, the phrase ’true form’ is somewhat ambiguous. Remember, when the Little Dragon was dueling, it was using ’Rainbow clamshell’, an artifact that made its shell look no different from ordinary people.
This person saw through his multiple shells, but he was not sure if the person had realized the Little Dragon’s true appearance.
Now that the effects of the ’Rainbow clamshell’ have faded away, if he switches to the Primordial Hermit’s shell, his true form - a dragon-headed humanoid - will be revealed.
"Do I have to use the Little Dragon just because you say so?"
The intent of the person before him is not good, and his warrior shell is not strong enough to resist.
Currently, he is in the wilderness and there is no one around. Lin Xun doesn’t need to hide his identity. He can directly reveal his hand.
[You possess the shell of the ’Fallen Earth Giant’!]
[A surprised voice came from under the figure’s mask. Who taught you the Art of Transformation, which allows you to have two human faces?]
[You stride forward, raising the ’Ancient Dragon Tooth Mace’ and boldly launch an attack!]
[The mace swings creating a strong wind pressure while rushing towards the enemy with unmatched ferocity.]
[The enemy senses your terrifying power, opts not to resist your attack with their sword, and quickly dodges...]
[When the mace hits the ground, it raises a cloud of dust. The strong wind caused by this action lifts the figure’s mask off.]
[You see a face covered with thick, short black hair. A short jaw protrudes slightly from the face, and two fuzzy long, pointed ears grow on the top of their head. It doesn’t look like a human face, it looks more like a dog’s face.]
[You have discovered the ’Source Tracing Night Delivering Dog’!]
[Witnessing your terrifying attack, it lets out a yelp, turns tail and runs with an astonishing speed...]
[In the blink of an eye, the ’Source Tracing Night Delivering Dog’ has put quite a distance between you both and is about to disappear into the vast night...]
"Trying to run away after being unable to win, can you really escape?"
With a cold smile, Lin Xun switched shells.
[You possess the shell of the ’Knowledge Seeking Direct View Association President’!]
[You look at the figure getting further and further away, and suddenly open one pink eye...]
[Special skill, ’Pleasure Smoke Vision’, activated!]
[Suddenly, the figure freezes in place. The inertia from its running causes it to fall to the ground. The ’Night Delivering Dog’ convulses on the ground and finds it hard to get up.]
[You slowly walk towards it, raise one hand, the ’Pre-stored Magic Ring’ shimmers, pure white characters emerge and converge into a giant spear, with the tip of the spear aimed at the chest of the ’Night Delivering Dog’.]
[As soon as it moves, the ’Knowledge Spear’ will pierce its heart!]
[You stare at the panic-stricken ’Night Delivering Dog’ and demand that it tells you the reason for your meeting.]
[The ’Source Tracing Night Delivering Dog’ claims that unless you reveal your true form, even if you kill it, it won’t reveal anything...]
[The pure white spear slightly penetrates into its chest, causing blood to spill out, and the ’Night Delivering Dog’ to yelp and whine in pain.]
[Even when the spear is about to pierce through its heart, the creature with a dog’s face and a human’s body just keeps whining from the pain, but never reveals anything.]
[It reiterates that unless you release the ’Art of Transformation’ and reveal your true form, you will not get any information from it.]
"Well, aren’t we a tough little doggie."
Lin Xun quietly thought that to kill the monster and get the relevant memories purely depended on luck. And even then, he might not get the information he wanted.
This monster named ’Source Tracing Night Delivering Dog’ does not have the prefix ’Fire Worshiping’, but a new prefix he had never seen before.
