Chapter 1975: Soul Guard

The Soul Speaker in the cell was tied up with five flowers and three ropes, and also wore a head cover.

"If this place is breached, kill her immediately."

"Yes!"

The little adjutant took out a steam bomb and stuck it on the wall beside the iron cell.

Su Xiao turned and walked out of the dungeon. After going up the stairs, he entered the underground hall, dragged over a metal chair, and sat in the center of the underground hall.

Su Xiao was verifying whether his guess was correct. If he wanted to continue triggering the awakening mission, he could only do so. Now, he just needed to wait.

It was very quiet outside. With nothing to do, Su Xiao took out 【Soul Source (High Purity)】. There were many ways to use this thing, which changed according to the improvement of different abilities, such as drinking directly, injecting, or absorbing with abilities, etc.

Su Xiao opened the bottle cap of the small glass bottle. The entire glass bottle was only the length of a thumb, and the liquid inside was completely transparent, smelling of nothing.

Su Xiao sent the small glass bottle to his mouth, opened his mouth and tilted his head, his index finger tapped the bottom of the bottle lightly, and the colorless liquid inside fell into Su Xiao's mouth like jelly.

Su Xiao frowned. The Soul Source had a strange taste, somewhat sweet, and a bit sour, just like adding vinegar to ice cream.

Swallowing the Soul Source, Su Xiao mobilized the Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in his body and began to absorb it.

As soon as the Soul Source entered his body, it spread out. The Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy didn't repel the Soul Source but absorbed it at a speed visible to the naked eye. The process wasn't fast.

Su Xiao could feel that the Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy in his body was growing rapidly, but it stopped after growing to a certain extent, which made him not only eager to obtain more Soul Source, but unfortunately, he only saw this thing in the Old Saint King's hands.

Su Xiao solved the Eagle Marquis, and the Old Saint King took out this small bottle of Soul Source. One could imagine the preciousness of the Soul Source.

【Green Qing Qing Gang Ying ability has been improved to lv. 46.】

【Green Qing Qing Gang Ying ability has been improved to lv. 47.】

【Green Qing Qing Gang Ying: lv. 47 (Active Skill)】

Usage Condition: After turning on (Green Qing Qing Gang Ying), the hunter consumes 134 mana per minute (increased by 4 points), and it automatically turns off after mana is lower than 1%.

Skill Effect: After turning on (Green Qing Qing Gang Ying), each melee attack will burn 265 mana of the enemy (increased by 10 points) and cause true damage of 1.6 times the burned mana (424 points of true damage). The enemy will suffer intense pain after mana burning. While suffering intense pain, the enemy has a 20% chance to trigger one of three abnormal states: paralysis, immobilization, or dizziness. The abnormal state duration is 0.2~3 seconds.

Defensive Form: Proud Song (Active), can generate energy shields of any shape to defend...

External Form: Energy Interruption (Active), Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy intensity is insufficient, temporarily unable to use this ability.

Hint: Green Qing Qing Gang Ying skill reaching lv. 40 can awaken this ability, and it can be used after being improved to lv. 50.

The comprehensive attributes of Green Qing Qing Gang Ying were improved, and it was only 3 levels away from reaching lv. 50. By then, he could obtain the "Energy Interruption" ability. Su Xiao didn't know what effect this ability had for the time being.

As one of the two forms of Green Qing Qing Gang Ying, Energy Interruption would definitely not be weak, so Su Xiao was very much looking forward to this kind of ability.

Some long waiting began. Until the next morning, there was no movement around the station. Those soldiers who were requisitioned still stood straight, and 29 transcendents were hiding on the 1st to 3rd floors of the building.

Sunlight penetrated from the dense forest, and climbing plants were crawling on the outer walls of the station building. Everything looked peaceful and natural.

Until the sun fell from the edge of the sky and the moon gradually climbed up, the surroundings were still that quiet.

Whoosh~

A black shadow swept across the dense forest, agile and swift.

"Safe."

The black shadow half-squatted on a tree fork. She had fiery red hair and was wearing leather armor. Her hair was blown by the night wind, and there were a few small pimples on her fair cheeks.

A few seconds later, at least a hundred figures rushed out from behind the forest. The red-haired girl leaned back and landed steadily.

"Lan, what should we do next?"

The red-haired girl spoke. The "Lan" she mentioned, whose full name was Rice Lan, was a young man with blonde hair. His age was less than 20, and his aura was like sunshine, making people feel warm.

"Must save Lady Nidia."

Lan picked up a branch and began to sketch a rough map on the ground.

"Those hateful power-holders, what did Lady Nidia do wrong, suddenly arresting her old lady."

The red-haired girl was somewhat angry. She was a main member of the Soul Guard. Although this organization had only been established for a few years, it had quite a reputation. They were mainly responsible for dealing with some supernatural abnormal events, while the Soul Speaker acted as a guide in it, a very glorious image.

The Soul Guard organization had repeatedly applied for establishment to the empire, that is, to give them a small amount of administrative power, which would make it more convenient for them to deal with supernatural abnormal events.

Judging from the performance of the Soul Guard all along, they had indeed done a lot of good things. The Skinning Incident, the Upside-down Mouse Kidnapping Case, and the Red Boots Serial Murder Case were all solved by them, saving many civilians.

Precisely because of this, this civilian organization recruited many civilian transcendents, operating in a way similar to a detective agency.

Unfortunately, the members of the Soul Guard didn't know one thing, which was what the Soul Speaker of this generation had done. If it weren't for the protection of the Moon God Monastery, the Soul Speaker wouldn't have enough lives to be killed by the Ninth Unit.

Even, the members of the Soul Guard didn't know the true identity of the Soul Speaker, firmly believing that the other party was a kind old man named Nidia, the original founder and guide of the Soul Guard.

"We are resisting the empire, really... is there no problem?"

A member of the Soul Guard spoke.

"At worst, escape the Dawn Empire, the Luodan Empire will accept us."

"That's right, the mission we shoulder is to ensure that ordinary people aren't harmed by those weird supernatural events, don't be as unfortunate as our families, this has nothing to do with national borders, and the power-holders of the Dawn Empire are unreasonable, suddenly arresting Lady Nidia."

"The soul is supreme."

"The soul is supreme!"

A dozen men and women around spoke in unison. As the second leader, Lan frowned slightly. He felt that everything about the Soul Guard was good, except for this sentence "The soul is supreme," which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

Clearly, the Soul Speaker's brainwashing was quite good. Sense of justice, sense of responsibility, kindness, integrity, unfortunate experiences, sense of belonging, were all things she could utilize. More interestingly, the age of the Soul Guard members was generally not large.

"There are 200 soldiers around that building, well-trained, there are 29 transcendents in the building, Lady Nidia is imprisoned in the basement, her aura is a bit weak."

"Damn, these bastards."

"Can't drag it on anymore."

After arranging the attack formation, more than a hundred members of the Soul Guard began to approach the station.

Two minutes later, the battle broke out. Facts proved that civilian transcendents weren't to be trifled with, but the soldiers weren't vegetarians either.

The battle lasted for nearly half an hour before stopping. Lan punched and knocked out an imperial transcendent. At this time, his fist was wrapped in golden light.

Corpses were lying around the building. When they first attacked, the members of the Soul Guard didn't expect so many people to die. They rarely fought in crowds. The largest battle was only a fight of a dozen people.

As soon as the battle started, the scene got out of control. The soldiers and imperial transcendents didn't care about any Soul Guard organization. If they came to commit an offense, kill them!

Therefore, the battle was much more tragic than Lan imagined. More than a dozen members of the Soul Guard even fled during the battle.

Lan panted, and the red-haired girl beside him wiped the blood off her face. Two thorn swords returned to their sheaths. Her mood was very heavy.

"Continue."

Lan took the remaining dozen members and entered the four-story building. After a search, they found a corridor leading to the underground.

Puchi~

The first steam door opened. Lan was at the forefront, keeping his body low and maintaining vigilance.

"No one?"

"Continue forward."

A dozen members of the Soul Guard advanced into the corridor, soon opened the second steam door, still no one, and the third steam door was only ten meters away.

A dozen people arrived in front of the third steam door. A teenager who was blind in one eye pressed his hand on the steam door.

Puchi~

White gas rose, and the steam door opened. The scene that came into view was an underground hall, the ground was paved with black marble, and occasionally one could see broken paper and dried blood stains.

Lan and the red-haired girl stood still. They didn't dare to continue moving forward, because in the center of the underground hall, a man was sitting on a metal chair, crossing his legs, with a sheathed long sword leaning on the armrest of the chair.

Lan and the red-haired girl looked at each other. They didn't need to approach the man at all to smell the faint smell of blood. That kind of terrifying aura, which was there and not there, was something they had never seen before. It seemed that it wasn't a human sitting there, but a blood-thirsty beast grinning at them.

A dozen transcendents, no one dared to take half a step forward. ===== CHAPTER 1976 =====
