Chapter 321
The "Hum-Ha Technique" was named by combining the "Hum" sound of the nose and the "Ha" sound of the mouth, which made Lu Mian feel quite special.
Moreover, the armor shadow was suspected to be a human or humanoid intelligent creature before death, so many characteristics and abilities had their own names, unlike those muddled guys who could only be summarized and summarized by Lu Mian, simply named for easy memory.
The information passed through the special connection let Lu Mian discover that "Hum-Ha Technique" was also a spell-like ability that could affect the spirit body.
It mobilized the spirit itself through these two kinds of sounds, "Ha" and "Hum," creating mystical abnormalities and forming special fluctuations that surged toward the target.
Any creature touched by this fluctuation would be severely dizzy at best, and at worst, it would be like suffering a "spiritual piercing," even causing the target to fall into a coma directly.
This ability would also gradually become stronger with the user's rank promotion. In other words, it had hope of affecting divine creatures, provided that Lu Mian was also promoted to Sequence 4 or used some way to temporarily increase his own rank.
It's not bad, not worse than coma screams. And "Hum" and "Ha" are always more decent than screaming randomly... Seeing that there wasn't much time left, Lu Mian began to make promises and sign the contract.
Actually, he was also quite curious about other abilities and characteristics of the armor shadow because their names had a weird taste, such as "Ten Thousand Ghosts Night Walk" and "Soul-Devouring Fierce Scream."
This time, the black seal-like thing fell on Lu Mian's right chest, and the ritual ended.
He hurriedly tied the "Decent" brooch with a thin string, put it back into the iron-gray military flask, and lifted the "Wall of Spirituality," cleaning up the altar and picking up the items he had thrown on the ground before.
Then, a ghost light flashed on his right shoulder, and he disappeared instantly, entering a magical world full of layered color blocks and strange creatures.
The next second, he left the Spirit World with slight dizziness and appeared in the bedroom on the second floor of the Breeze Ballroom.
Lu Mian rubbed his head, which was twitching, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction:
"It is indeed a true 'Spirit World traversal.' This ability is too practical..."
The only problem is that the consumption of spirituality is abnormally huge. With the double improvement of "Contractee" plus "Pyromaniac," he can currently only complete three to four times. And considering the consumption of using flames and the reservation for guarding against accidents, in a relatively intense battle, he can almost only use it once, with the limit being twice.
If it were a pure "Contractee," even without other consumption, they could normally only "teleport" twice.
And this was only in the case of choosing surrounding coordinates. Of course, surrounding coordinates didn't represent only corresponding to the surrounding area.
The Spirit World is a very magical and very special world. In it, up, down, left, right, front, back, and even time are mixed together, overlapping with the real world and being chaotic on its own. Except for things gathered by the same concept being together, others seem to be arranged by throwing dice at will.
Simply put, Trier as a whole, a powerful concept, has a corresponding area in the Spirit World and won't be torn apart and distributed in different places. But its vicinity is no longer the surrounding towns and villages; it might be the concept corresponding to some river in the Southern Continent, or it might be the projection of a settlement of deep-sea creatures.
Without accurate positioning, Lu Mian could only "teleport" within the range of Trier; otherwise, he would inevitably be lost in the Spirit World, which would be very, very dangerous.
Just now, when he tried to traverse the Spirit World, all the locations in Trier he had been to many times appeared in his mind in the form of strange coordinates, allowing him to directly "teleport" back to the Breeze Ballroom instead of running to other corners of this big metropolis.
At the same time, Lu Mian vaguely sensed the "White City" Laps of the Highland Kingdom he had been to. It wasn't too far from Trier in the Spirit World, but it wasn't close either. It was obviously impossible for Lu Mian to "teleport" directly there; he had to find one or two transit coordinates between the two sides.
"It's not bad." Lu Mian sighed with satisfaction.
Except for the limitations on the number of times and "distance," the "Spirit World traversal" obtained from "Abscessed Severed Hand" perfectly met his expectations.
Lu Mian immediately walked to the full-length mirror, stimulated the black seal on his left shoulder, and looked at himself, who was scorched, gradually transforming into a middle-aged man with a few white hairs at his temples, fleshy cheeks, brown-red eyes, deep features, distinct contours, and a friendly temperament.
Gardner Martin!
Can restore appearance, body, and temperament, but behavior and tone can only rely on himself... Lu Mian evaluated the ability of "Nisse's Face."
Just now, when he changed, he consumed quite a lot of spirituality, but maintaining the change only needed a little. He could live in the appearance of Gardner Martin for more than ten hours.
Lu Mian lifted "Nisse's Face," took several steps back, looked at the mirror, and opened his mouth.
"Ha!"
He suddenly felt spirit surging into the black seal on his right chest, his spirit body appeared to vibrate, and a pale yellow light that was almost invisible sprayed out from his mouth.
The light penetrated the mirror, flew out of the wall, and didn't disappear until nearly ten meters away.
"It's only effective at close range... The consumption is less than 'Spirit World traversal' and more than 'Nisse's Face.' I can use it four or five times in a battle..." Lu Mian, who was burned everywhere, exhaled slowly, put on his clothes, fell on the bed, and fell asleep.
The gold owed to the armor shadow and the promise to help "Abscessed Severed Hand" find its body were temporarily thrown to the back of his mind. Anyway, there was still quite a lot of time. What he needed most now was rest and recovery, and waiting for the disgusting aura brought by the "Decent" brooch to naturally fade away.
The next morning.
Lu Mian, wearing a black felt hat, a shirt, a sweater, and a relatively thick jacket, rang the doorbell of Apartment 601, 3 White Coat Street.
Franca opened the door with a depressed face and was surprised by Lu Mian's attire:
"Is your perception of temperature confused?"
Lu Mian didn't answer but asked:
"Have you collected real mummy ash?"
"You asked this question just yesterday!" Franca replied angrily.
The answer was no.
Lu Mian laughed:
"I'll take you to find real mummies."
"Where are you going to find them?" Franca was both suspicious and curious.
Lu Mian walked into the room and answered as if casually:
"Southern Continent Star Plateau."
"How to go?" Franca glanced at the bathroom and lowered her voice, "You don't want to trouble your Great Arcana card, do you?"
"I just wrote a letter to ask for a transit coordinate." Lu Mian answered with a smile.
"Transit coordinate..." Franca combined her mystical knowledge and soon had a guess, "Did you get a magical item that can 'teleport'?"
Lu Mian shook his head and explained roughly:
"Using my contract creature."
"What kind of contract is so powerful?" Franca blurted out in astonishment.
She had been suspicious before about why Lu Mian was so anxious to screen contract creatures. Normally, those willing to sign contracts with Sequence 7 were relatively ordinary, and they had to set up rituals to summon them, making it very difficult to play a role in most battles.
Lu Mian smiled:
"A special kind of contract."
"Uh..." Franca looked Lu Mian up and down and walked half a circle around him.
This "witch" wearing trousers and a shirt cleared her throat and said:
"Are we brothers?"
"No." Lu Mian answered without hesitation, "We have different faiths!"
"Aren't they both surface Steam, actually Mr. Fool?" Franca lowered her voice again.
Lu Mian responded "devoutly":
"I still have a little faith in the 'Eternal Blazing Sun'."
At least he had believed for almost six years.
Franca was speechless for a while and asked again after a few seconds:
"Then are we friends?"
"Yes." Lu Mian didn't think one thing in his heart and say another with his mouth this time.
Franca's eyebrows stretched out:
"Can you teach me that kind of special contract? Name your price."
She put forward her request very frankly.
Lu Mian shook his head again:
"I had a special encounter to be able to use that kind of contract."
"Alright." Franca didn't pursue it, quite disappointed.
At this time, Jenna walked out of the bathroom, and Lu Mian asked half-jokingly:
"Do you want to go to the Southern Continent for a trip?"
"Trip, why go for a trip?" Jenna looked blank.
Franca hurriedly told her about her need for mummy ash and the fact that Lu Mian had a way to "teleport" to the Star Plateau, and finally asked:
"Do you want to follow and see?"
Jenna pondered for a moment and said:
"Alright."
She felt that she lacked too much experience in the extraordinary field and needed to see more, hear more, and exercise more.
Moreover, she had lived until now, and the farthest place she had been to was the opera house district of Trier, and she had been curious about those Southern Continent stories circulating in bars and ballrooms for a long time.
Lu Mian looked at his two companions and reminded with a smile:
"You'd better wear thicker clothes. It's not only a plateau there, but it's also winter."
"Oh..." Franca looked at Lu Mian and understood why he would dress for winter.
Not long after, Franca changed into a black jacket similar to leather armor and dark trousers with knee pads that were lined with velvet inside, dressed like a female mercenary or bounty hunter. Because Jenna's thick clothes hadn't been moved over yet, she could only borrow Franca's to wear, which was also the same look. However, she was a bit shorter, so she had to rely on tightening her belt, buttoning her sleeves, and rolling up her trousers to avoid her actions being affected.
Lu Mian immediately reached out his palms, grabbed their shoulders respectively, and stimulated the contract mark on his right shoulder.
A ghost light flashed in the gap of his clothes, and Jenna and Franca entered a magical world, where there were thick and overlapping pure color blocks and strange creatures retreating in all directions everywhere.
Amidst the dizziness, they left the Spirit World and appeared on a desolate island.
Without waiting for Jenna and Franca to adjust, Lu Mian used "Spirit World traversal" again.
After returning to reality, what appeared in the eyes of the two "Assassins" were the snow-covered mountain peaks in the distance and the exotic city dominated by white buildings nearby.
Jenna calmed down her state and exclaimed subconsciously:
"So magical..."
If she had to use any words to modify magical and express her mood, she might choose to swear.
Although she wasn't sure yet that this was the Southern Continent Star Plateau, being able to come from White Coat Street to the wilderness so quickly was enough to show the magic of "teleportation"!
Lu Mian endured the twitching of his head and the massive consumption of spirituality, looked as if nothing had happened, and pointed to that "White City":
"Let's go in."
