Chapter 100 Ghost Baby 2
Chapter 100 Ghost Baby 2
Obviously, the ghost baby didn't really want to kill them. It was probably because the two D-level ones were blind and angered the ghost baby, so they were eaten by it directly. The remaining Li Ming was smart enough, and he had the ability to restrain his weirdness like a hedgehog. The ghost baby couldn't eat him, so it could only use illusion to fascinate him and keep wandering around the top floor of the villa.
However, the last time he took a quick glance at this ghost baby, it was still C-level. He didn't expect that it was almost at B-level this time. It seems that the two D-level souls are also a great supplement for him.
Zagreus glanced at the sleeping Xiao Li, then reached out to push the door, but embarrassingly it didn't open. He looked down and found that the lock on the door had disappeared, and even the keyhole was gone. It was obvious that the ghost baby didn't want him to enter.
"Why do you open the door when Xiao Li comes, but you don't even have a door handle when you come to my place? Do you look down on me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow on the ground suddenly moved, as if something was about to come out.
"Click, squeak~"
Just as the shadow moved, the door in front of him suddenly opened slowly, and a dark breath rushed in.
In the dim light in the opponent's territory, he saw a small figure lying on the ground, a baby covered in blood. He looked very fragile, with a bloody umbilical cord on his belly leading to nowhere. He was shivering as if he had been extremely frightened.
Despite this, he still struggled to use his tiny hands to pry the door open little by little. Seeing this sad scene, Zagreus was also confused. He knew that this was a kind of ghost baby, but he didn't expect it to be so small. He even felt like he was employing child labor.
"Yeah ah!"
The moment the ghost baby on the ground saw Zagros, he immediately put away his hostility. Although he didn't know who Zagros was, he could sense an extremely dangerous aura from the person in front of him, making him feel as if he was facing endless darkness.
This ghost baby can grow to level B, so it is natural that he is a wise man who knows the times. Since he can't beat him, he should just be honest and don't provoke the other party to eat him alive when he is unhappy.
"As you please, I'm just taking a look, you're very interesting!"
Zagrous chuckled, and just as he was about to step in, he suddenly stopped. He just realized that this ghost baby actually had a blood connection with him. Of course, it was not Zagrous himself, but the vest of Huang Jue on him.
This blood connection made him feel moved, and he stopped involuntarily. He stared at the ghost baby quietly, with curiosity flashing in his eyes.
He was about to grab the ghost baby with his hands, but when he saw the large amount of blood on the ghost baby's body, he stopped immediately.
After carefully observing the strength of the ghost baby's soul, he stretched out his finger and gently hooked it. The next second, a stream of turbid water suddenly gushed out from Zagreus's shadow, instantly wrapping the ghost baby completely.
The ghost baby didn't even have time to make any resistance before it was dizzy from the impact of the high-speed rotating water flow. It was as if it was thrown into a washing machine, rolling continuously.
As the water washed away the blood and dirt on the ghost baby, they gradually disappeared. After seeing that the ghost baby was finally clean, Zagreus waved his hand casually, and the water around the ghost baby evaporated instantly.
This is the water of the Styx that he summoned with his divine power. It is of course weakened. Only the water of the Styx can wash away the blood stains on the ghost baby's body that were condensed by hatred.
As the water dissipated, the true appearance of the ghost baby, covered by the stained blood, gradually appeared before his eyes.
When Zagros saw the ghost baby's true appearance, his eyes drooped slightly. At this time, the ghost baby's body was covered with dense runes. These runes carried a lot of malicious intent and kept moving around on its body.
Zagreus could see that these were not methods from Dragon Country, but were consistent with the evil magic in Southeast Asia. With the emergence of spiritual energy, some ancient traditions gradually emerged.
He said that with the status of the Huang family, even if black smoke came out of their ancestral tomb, they could not create a C-level evil ghost. It turned out that they used evil methods. The dirty blood before was a means to deceive the ghost baby and make its intelligence chaotic so that it could be used by humans.
Zagros looked at the ghost baby in front of him that was babbling to him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. The shadow of another person seemed to have appeared in the ghost baby's eyes just now, but it disappeared in a flash.
He bent down, stretched out a hand, and lifted it up effortlessly. As he moved, the ghost baby in his hand began to make sharp cries and struggled to escape.
But as Zagros stood up, the ghost baby in his hand became smaller and smaller, as if it was compressed by an invisible force. Later, the ghost baby became only as tall as Zagros's fingers and looked very fragile.
But even so, the ghost baby still did not stop struggling. Fear and ferocity were revealed in its ignorant eyes, but the more afraid it was, the stronger its consciousness of resistance became. The runes on its body became brighter and brighter, as if it was attracting the power of the domain. The baby's cry instantly resounded throughout the villa, and an invisible sound wave continued to echo in the villa.
"Don't make any noise!"
Suddenly, an invisible pressure phenomenon appeared, and the shadow under Zagros' feet expanded rapidly, soon covering the entire villa. The runes on the ghost baby's body suddenly dimmed and became quiet in an instant. Then, when he looked at Zagros, there seemed to be a little clarity in his eyes.
At this moment, the ghost baby suddenly stopped struggling, but instead held Zagros's fingers and was unwilling to let go, because he seemed to feel a familiar breath from the person in front of him, and this breath made him feel close.
Seeing that the ghost baby was not moving, Zagros could carefully observe the runes on its body. At the same time, he also saw a faint yellow light on the ghost baby's body. He was familiar with this. It was a symbol of wealth. Zagros also had this thing on him. His river of wealth was a symbol of money.
Now it makes sense. No wonder Huang Ye was able to suddenly get rich by joining the Elysee Group. It was probably because of this little devil he raised.
The sorcerer that Huang Ye found had some skills. His refining method should be the Kumantong from Southeast Asia, using unborn babies.
It's a pity that he didn't learn it completely there. If he remembered correctly, this thing was originally called Five Ghosts Bringing Wealth in Long Country. However, the Five Ghosts Bringing Wealth technique in Taoism can only be used by masters with profound skills. Once mastered, it can steal wealth from the unknown.
However, these methods have too many restrictions. Some people who follow unorthodox ways cannot learn them, and they imitate them to practice the Five Ghosts Moving Technique. This wealth-making technique directly steals other people's money.
Nowadays, those who are refining Kumantong for Huang Ye are even more unbearable. On the one hand, they have to use human blood to refine the ghost baby, but on the other hand, they are afraid of the ghost baby's backlash. They use resentment to pollute the ghost baby's mind and force the ghost baby to steal wealth.
However, the wealth he stole was actually his own. Huang Ye was just prepaying his future wealth in advance. Moreover, this kind of magic was against the harmony of nature and would cause fratricide. Every time Huang Ye used the ghost baby, he would have to pay the price with his life. Now it has begun to backfire, and it won't be long before his finances will be in big trouble.
