Manipulating bones and playing with them is a habit of Bone Butler, because he practices his talent whenever he has free time, which is why his talent level is so high.
But this move terrified the prisoners!
Manipulating corpses—that's a technique used by demonic cultivators!
In the Bone Deacon's view, this was simply a perfectly normal control of bones.
To those Hua Nong Sect prisoners, this was a method of controlling corpses!
The thought of having one's body controlled after death is terrifying!
The female prisoner was the most terrified of them all.
After all, she's a woman!
The female swordsman who had been defeated by the White Cat Salted Fish Sword let out a deep breath and spoke with a heavy expression.
"I can tell you about the Hua Nong Sect, and I can take out the things in my storage space, but you must swear that you will not play with my soul and body."
? ? ?
What is that?
Sancha, who was still chatting with Bone Butler, was taken aback upon hearing this.
I haven't even used my full strength yet, how come you've already confessed?
The original plan for the loose tea was to fry one person as a warning to others before starting the inquiry.
Why did you chicken out?
And... manipulating the soul and body?
Bone Butler and Sancha exchanged a bewildered glance. What happened?
"Hmph! Stop pretending!" the fat cultivator shouted angrily. "Playing these disgusting evil tricks of yours in front of us is just threatening us!"
Upon hearing this, the two instantly realized that it was the skeleton pig that had been helping them all along!
That wild boar is such a hard worker!
In life, they helped serve tea and tasted dishes; after death, they still had to satisfy the appetites of the bone stewards, and their bones could even be used for torture!
Wow!
"Damn it! You traitors! So what if your soul and body are to be controlled? We are members of the Hua Nong Sect! How can you do this!" One of the cultivators, whose face looked rather old, began to struggle frantically, roaring and cursing. However, before he could finish speaking, he was grabbed by the neck by the cold-faced San Cha and thrown into the oil pot behind him.
"Aaaaaah!!!" Accompanied by crackling sounds, the old-looking cultivator's screams echoed throughout the room, "I, the Sect Master of Hua Nong Sect! Aaaaah! I will not let you go!!! Aaaaah!"
The cultivator's screams and the sizzling sounds from the oil in the fryer gave Deacon Bone goosebumps.
Not to mention those few cultivators.
This loose tea...
That's really heartless!
As the cultivator's screams gradually subsided, Sancha looked at the last remaining young cultivator, who had not yet expressed his opinion, with a sullen face.
"So, do you want to be boiled in oil or live?"
"You...you must swear to the Heavenly Dao!!! You will not control our souls and bodies!" The young cultivator trembled, but his words were firm. "Otherwise, I'd rather be boiled in oil!"
Swear to the Heavenly Dao?
Both Sancha and Steward Gu were taken aback upon hearing this, and strange smiles appeared on their faces.
In the game's lore, we are the henchmen of Heaven's will!
Swear an oath to the enemy boss to protect your safety?
What kind of logic is that?
Well... but others don't know that we are Heaven's most beloved children.
"Alright, I agree, but you must also swear an oath to Heaven to cooperate with us."
Sancha rolled his eyes and made a new request.
We swear an oath, so it's probably nothing, but if you swear an oath and then break it, then that's another story.
The three prisoners exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
Sancha took the lead and swore with a strange expression, "I swear to the Heavenly Dao that as long as you cooperate, I guarantee that I will not control your souls and bodies, nor will I kill you."
Then the three prisoners each swore to cooperate with the tea-serving work.
Seeing that the three prisoners swore to cooperate, Sancha readily took them down from the shelf.
He wasn't afraid the prisoners would escape, considering that the NPCs in this game really believed in oaths.
After all, it has an Eastern fantasy background.
The prisoners, who had been released by Sancha, readily began to rummage through their storage spaces.
Sancha put away his personal oil pot and tossed the unrecognizable enemy inside to Bone Butler.
I also gave him a little nudge.
The bone steward nodded slightly, feigning a drooling expression, and dragged the dead prisoner out.
Actually, they were dragged to the Heavenly Altar for sacrifice.
But to the prisoners, it seemed like they were being dragged away to practice evil magic!
They pulled out their belongings even more diligently.
Now that the prisoners had decided to cooperate, Sancha no longer needed to worry about the rest. He informed Hydra that the enemy had confessed and handed over the whole mess of intrigue.
He was busy preparing tea and studying cooking, so he didn't have time to hang out with the prisoners.
Because the prisoners were quite cooperative, Hydra obtained the information they wanted and the equipment that was useful to the players with almost no effort.
This time, Hydra obtained two skill books from the prisoners.
These are earth-based and water-based spells that can only be used by those at the Golden Core stage.
Now players have four elemental spells: earth, water, wind, and fire.
It's important to understand that players are different from cultivators. They don't need to cultivate; they just need to go to Kakashi's place, contribute a little contribution, and they can learn it and then gradually become familiar with it.
Such spellbooks are extremely valuable to players.
The remaining spirit stones and magical artifacts were handed over to the players in the logistics team for research.
The acquisition of items is a minor matter.
The key is the acquisition of intelligence.
I learned from several prisoners who were at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm that there were two people in charge on this Bamboo Rat Star: one was the Dog Protector and the other was the Pig Protector.
These two guardians did not get along well, because the dog guardian was on one side of the planet, while all the pig guardians were on the other side, avoiding the dog guardian.
Based on combat strength, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the current players should be able to reliably defeat the Pig Guardian.
As long as the half-Nascent Soul stage Wang Ergouzi and Pig Protector are entangled, the players can form a formation to finish off the enemy and win easily.
However, the worst-case scenario is that something unexpected might happen.
The interstellar teleportation array on Bamboo Rat Star is directly connected to the mother planet of Hua Nong Sect, Hua Nong Star.
If Hua Nong Zong senses something is wrong and sends reinforcements, they can arrive very quickly.
However, according to the prisoners, there are still many bamboo rats imprisoned on this planet, and Hydra plans to exploit them.
After obtaining information about the prisoners, Hydra imprisoned them.
Because right after the prisoners revealed the information, they turned into yellow names, no longer the hostile red names.
There's no need for players to take action anymore.
So they simply locked them up and left.
Anyway, the prisoners are all Golden Core stage experts, so they won't starve to death.
Because Wang Ergouzi had already conquered a celestial city, the Heavenly Dao Orb appeared and transformed that celestial city into a stronghold for the players.
