Zuo Si stared into the other person's eyes and issued his ultimatum word by word.
But the female assassin didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem. She sneered and responded, "Don't dream! I won't betray my master! Even if you kill me now, you can't change your fate of death. It won't be long before the master sends more assassins to kill you."
"Very good! You have successfully made me abandon the last bit of compassion in my heart."
Zuo Si activated the card in his hand without hesitation.
moment!
A ball of black and gray energy completely enveloped his right hand, like a burning flame.
But what’s interesting is that this flame doesn’t have even the slightest bit of temperature. Instead, it gives people a dark and cold feeling.
Without a doubt!
This is the negative energy that contains the power of life, but it is different from the negative energy that creates undead creatures.
If it were any other time, Zuo Si might have spent some time on research.
But now, he just wanted to make this half-elf female assassin who tried to kill him feel pain and regret immediately, and find out who was the mastermind behind it.
When the hand covered with black and gray negative energy touched the female assassin's neck, the latter let out a creepy scream on the spot.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!”
I saw the strong negative energy like liquid, slowly seeping into the body through the mouth, nose, ears, and eyes.
Because the speed was so slow, the onlookers could clearly see that the blood vessels under the half-elf's skin were turning black at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, a large amount of black mist began to emerge from all over the body and surrounded it.
When the concentration of the fog reached a certain level, her broken knees, arms and fingers miraculously recovered.
Even the two daggers that were knocked off flew back under the influence of some invisible force, and merged into one with his hands under the transformation of energy.
The whole person even floated up from the ground uncontrollably, with an extremely hideous expression on his face.
Anyone who is not a fool can realize that this unfortunate assassin is suffering unimaginable pain.
Many ordinary people who had never seen magic were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground and shook violently all over.
Fortunately, the transformation process didn't take too long and it gradually subsided after just two minutes.
When the black mist surrounding them dissipated, everyone who saw the female half-elf's new appearance gasped at the same time.
Because now she can no longer be called a human being.
Whether it was the dull and gray face that looked like a corpse, or the body that was made up of a mass of shadows and gave people an extremely unstable feeling, or the two eyes glowing red, all of them proved that this woman had turned into a complete shadow creature.
"You...what did you do to me?!"
The female assassin asked loudly in a creepy hoarse voice.
"I have transformed you into a shadow servant. Now as your master, I command you to kneel!"
Zuo Si directly used the power in his hands.
He could sense that after the transformation was complete, he had established a vague connection with the other party.
As long as you want, you can use this connection to control the shadow servant at any time, and even summon it to your side instantly from a very long distance.
Plop! After hearing the words "kneel down", the female assassin suddenly felt her body being dominated by an irresistible force.
Then, with an extremely humble and submissive attitude, he knelt in front of the target he wanted to kill just a few minutes ago.
shock!
stunned!
incredible!
She didn't understand what was going on at all! Why was she so full of hostility and hatred in her heart, but she couldn't put up even the slightest resistance?
No matter how much you hate me or how much you want to kill me, you must unconditionally obey every order I give you and kill the master you are loyal to for me.
And this pain will last forever!"
Hearing these words, the expression on the female half-elf's face suddenly became extremely distorted, and her two red eyes were filled with hatred and murderous intent.
Because of her excessive emotions, her body, which had completely turned into a shadow, began to flicker constantly, sometimes lengthening and sometimes shortening.
[Unstable Form + Semi-Virtual Life]
This is a characteristic that only typical shadow creatures possess, and can also be considered a spell-like ability.
Since the flesh has been converted into a semi-energy form, ordinary weapons will just go through it as if they were cutting through the air.
Even enchanted weapons have a 1 in 20 chance of failing.
It can also pass through various physical obstacles, such as walls, ceilings, etc.
In addition, another major characteristic of shadow creatures is that they can hide directly into the shadows, making them impossible to be discovered by ordinary people.
Only with the help of the three-ring [Daylight Technique] can it be driven out.
"Don't look at me like that. Don't forget, I once gave you the chance to choose, but you didn't cherish it. Now, I order you to tell me your name and who is the master who ordered you to kill me."
Zuo Si completely ignored the assassin's murderous look and used the authority granted to him by the card to force him to tell the secret.
As early as when he was in the tower of the floating city, he was accustomed to the jealousy, hostility, hatred, resentment and envy of other apprentices towards him.
Because these guys simply don't understand why the Grand Necromancer Asta looks at him so differently.
Little do they know that he holds the power of the Spark, which can open portals to other planes, crystal walls, and universes, and is the only hope for the Grand Necromancer to escape death and pursue immortality.
Some daring apprentices even tried to poison the food or create various "accidents" to eliminate this huge threat.
Compared with the intrigues and fears of life on the brink of death during those days, this little scene was nothing.
"My...my name is Yelnia. Mu...Muk sent me to assassinate you."
Although the half-elf was very resistant to this order and tried to interrupt it forcibly several times.
But in the end, he was unable to resist the powerful control given by the cards, and he gave away his own name and the name of the mastermind behind the scenes in bits and pieces.
"Muk? Who is he? Why is he trying to kill me?"
Zuo Sixia obviously heard this name for the first time and immediately frowned subconsciously.
Calling herself Yelinia Half-Elf...
Oh, that's not right.
Now it should be a shadow servant.
She knelt on the ground and obviously struggled for a moment, then answered again in an extremely low and hoarse voice: “Muk is one of Captain Hallett’s confidants of the Bloody Hand.
Mainly responsible for collecting intelligence and secretly operating shops, taverns and hotels controlled by pirates.
Recently, Eric, another close confidant of Hallett, has been selling off assets to raise ransom, causing Muke to suffer heavy losses.
After some investigation, he found out that all this was because you captured Captain Bloody Hand..."
"So he decided to kill me first, and then kill Harlet once and for all, so that he can get rid of control and take all the wealth?"
Zuo Si effortlessly sorted out the cause and effect of the whole incident.
He originally thought that the assassination was probably caused by his involvement in the guild war in Kalin Port.
But who knew that the answer actually came from the infighting among pirates.
