You know, in his opinion, such a wolf spider statue is already a treasure that many adventurers and mercenaries dream of.
Summoning it at a critical moment can often change the outcome of a battle in an instant.
"Yelinya! Show this guy the power you now possess."
Zuo Si gave orders directly to his shadow servant.
The female assassin raised her left hand and gently hooked her fingers towards the corridor.
The next second...
A large group of things like twisted and deformed humanoid shadows rushed in through the walls, the ground and the ceiling.
Their number was almost exactly the same as the number of deaths in the house.
There were even two of them who had just crawled up from the corpses at the door.
Without a doubt!
These twisted monsters are all shadowy creatures without exception.
After seeing the extremely shocked expression on Muke's face, Zuo Si explained in a nonchalant tone: "Any shadow creature has the ability to create derivatives, just like vampires.
In other words, any living creature killed by Yelnia can be transformed into a new shadow within a dozen seconds to a few minutes.
New shadows can be created through killing, just like a snowball.
And these shadows are completely under her control and domination.
If I want, I can even build a shadow army in a short time.
Tell me, do you have anything in your collection that can rival this power?"
For a moment, Muk was silent.
Because he really couldn't think of what chips he had that could be used to exchange for Yelnia, who possessed such powerful abilities.
Most importantly, he understood the meaning of the sentence "The really fun part will only begin after you are completely dead."
If killed by Yelnia, they will be transformed into shadow creatures.
And they are the lowest-level shadow cannon fodder whose minds are not under control.
"Hahaha! Stop showing off your ridiculous cleverness! Do you understand? From the moment you sent people to assassinate Soth, today's outcome was doomed.
He is not the kind of foolish spellcaster who would be blinded by the immediate benefits.
They will not let go of anyone who tries to kill or hurt them.
The reason I am still alive today, besides being able to pay a large ransom, is mainly because I was not the one who started the battle that led to the annihilation of the entire army.
Rather, he thought me and my pirates were a threat, and he attacked.
But you are different. You broke his taboo."
Hallet sneered with gloating pleasure.
The pirate captain will never forget Zuo Si's decisive killing attitude on the deserted island.
It has nothing to do with good or evil, I just simply don't want to leave myself with any trouble or trouble.
In Hallett's eyes, this kind of person is the most terrifying!
Because it is almost impossible to buy them off for personal gain, and they will not accept mediation or negotiation. Once you provoke them, it means a fight to the death.
"Can I trade my personal collection for a normal death?"
Realizing that he couldn't save Yelnia, Muk immediately settled for the next best option.
He didn't want to live in this cursed state forever, immersed in negative emotions of pain and hatred.
In fact, due to the existence of gods, death is not a terrible thing for most mortals with faith.
Because after death, the soul will be taken away by the god that one believes in, reincarnated as a petitioner, and continue to exist in another form.
Zuo Si stared at the lifelike wolf spider statue on the table and thought for a moment, then quickly responded, "Okay. Write down the locations of your secret warehouses, and I'll let Hallett give you a quick death."
"make a deal!"
Muk didn't even bother to bargain. He immediately pulled out a piece of paper and quickly wrote a few lines of small words on it with a feather pen dipped in ink.
After washing, he gently blew away the remaining moisture on the writing, rolled up the parchment and handed it to Zuo Si, then turned around and said to the pirate captain: "Come on! Kill me! Then the grudge between us will be written off."
"Write it all off? You bastard caused me to lose a huge sum of money! And the intelligence network from Port Calin to Mannon and Mylatma!" Hallet spat viciously.
What a joke! If even such a thing could be forgiven, how could he control those ambitious subordinates? If possible, he even wanted to dig out Muk's heart alive in the most cruel way in front of all his subordinates.
But unfortunately, Hallet's current identity is just a prisoner and he has no decision-making power.
Perhaps because he had let go of everything before his death, Muk looked very relaxed. He sneered and asked, "Yours? I built the intelligence network from Kalin Port to Mannon.
This money was also accumulated slowly through trade.
Apart from giving me 20,000 gold coins as a starting capital, you did almost nothing. "
"Even so it's mine!
Even you yourself belong to me! Don't forget, I bought you for 160 gold coins.
According to the laws of Calimport, you are still my slave to this day."
As he said this, the pirate captain's eyes revealed a look of viciousness and cruelty.
He deliberately exposed the other party's scars just to see an expression of pain and anger on the betrayer's face.
Unfortunately, Zuo Si was not interested in watching the two biting each other. He snapped his fingers and let the [Activation Rope] fall off. At the same time, he picked up a dagger that fell on the ground and threw it over, urging impatiently: "Don't waste time, hurry up and solve it. I still need to go back to the hotel to sleep."
"Humph! You're lucky!"
Seeing Zuo Si speak, Hallett did not dare to continue to pester him. He picked up the dagger, rushed forward, and stabbed the sharp blade deeply into the opponent's chest.
Puff! As the end came out from the back, a large amount of blood instantly dyed the luxurious silk robe red.
After a while, Muk lost consciousness and fell to the ground due to excessive blood loss.
Great revenge!
The pirate captain's expression looked noticeably better.
He threw the dagger to the ground in a very bachelor manner and let the [Activating Rope] tie him up again.
As for Zuo Si, he first took the wolf spider statue on the table without any hesitation, and then bent down to check Muk's body.
After confirming that there were no valuable magic items, he finally ordered without even looking up: "Use the magic ring to burn this body!"
"?!!!"
Yelnia was completely stunned and could not understand what this order meant.
But she could not disobey her master's order, so she could only raise the [Ring of Continuous Fireballs] on her finger and activate the spell stored in it.
The next second...
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Accompanied by violent explosions and burning flames, Muk's body instantly disappeared from this world forever.
Now, if anyone wants to resurrect him, they will need to use top-level magic or divine arts such as [Wish] and [Miracle].
Yes!
The reason why Zuo Si destroyed Muk's body was to prevent the other party from having any friends or allies who would collect the body and resurrect it afterwards.
After all, in this magical land of Faerun, for those who are rich, powerful, and well-connected, there are many ways to resurrect, unless they die of natural causes due to the end of their lifespan.
The simplest and most effective prevention method is to destroy the corpse, greatly increasing the difficulty and cost of resurrection.
