"This is..." Gong Yangwan's eyes became brighter.
"You, have control over it?" Lin Qiye asked in surprise when he saw that Gong Yangwan's body was not out of control.
"I knew I could do it!" Gong Yangwan burst into laughter, but her expression froze in the middle of her laughter. "No additional ability to change? The [Heart-Returning Gu] didn't disappear either... Damn it! What's the point of having this hand then?!"
Gong Yangwan took the risk of swallowing the willow branch in the hope of gaining the power of the restraint system and breaking free from Huo Qubing's control. But now, not only has she not gained any abilities, she has also turned into a monster that is neither human nor ghost. What's the point of her taking the risk?
Gong Yangwan's expression changed repeatedly, but in the end, she frowned and looked at the disgusting willow branch arm again.
"If you lose the bet, you lose... At least, it looks intimidating enough." She snorted coldly.
Gong Yangwan's strong psychological quality directly shocked Lin Qiye and Wuquan. If an ordinary person risked his life to make a gamble, but only got a disgusting arm in the end, he would probably collapse on the spot. But she was able to calm down quickly and accept the reality calmly...
Gong Yangwan is far more powerful than Lin Qiye imagined... both in terms of ability and character.
"Are you really not feeling unwell?" Lin Qiye frowned and asked, "Did you hear someone talking in your ear? Did you feel unusually irritated? Did you feel itchy, as if something was trying to come out?"
"No." Gong Yangwan waved her hand impatiently.
Now, Lin Qiye was really confused... He had dealt with the Cthulhu mythology so many times, but this was the first time he had come into such close contact with Cthulhu creatures and no mutation had occurred. Considering the characteristics of the Cthulhu creatures, this was simply impossible.
Moreover, the Gong Yang Wan he saw in modern society was not the strange image before him... Could it be that she used some method to hide this arm later?
"Who are you?!" Just as the three were talking, a roar came from a distance.
Lin Qiye turned around and saw several figures in armor, holding blood-stained weapons, rushing towards him quickly.
Lin Qiye frowned and was about to say something when Gong Yangwan beside him let out a light exclamation.
"strangeness……"
"What's wrong?"
"Why are there willow branches in their bodies?" Gong Yangwan narrowed his eyes and pointed at the several willow branch corpses under him with his right hand. "Just like them."
Lin Qiye was stunned at first, then seemed to realize something and looked suddenly at her willow branch arm with eyeballs!
"You can...see their true forms?"
Lin Qiye also recognized those soldiers in armor. They should be the expeditionary soldiers who followed the Marquis into the palace. If those outside were all fakes, then the figures in front of him were most likely fakes as well...but Gong Yangwan could tell their true colors at a glance?
Could this be the ability she gained after swallowing the willow branch?
"Wuquan." Lin Qiye said.
"yes!"
Wu Quan raised his hand and several weapons that had fallen to the ground immediately flew out and directly pierced the bodies of the soldiers who were rushing towards him.
With a wailing sound, they fell to the ground one after another, and after a moment, they turned into willow branches!
Seeing this scene, Lin Qiye's eyes suddenly lit up. The biggest problem now is that they can't tell which are the real people and which are the replaced fakes. Now those replaced ordinary people have been killed by Chloe, so what about the others?
Zhan Yuwu, Yan Zhong, Wuquan, and even Huo Qubing... How can we tell whether they are real or fake?
But since Gong Yangwan has obtained this ability by chance, all difficulties will be solved! This will be their hope of breaking through!
At this moment, Gong Yangwan seemed to realize her own uniqueness. She turned her head and glanced at the ugly willow branch arm, her eyes narrowed slightly:
"interesting……"
She turned her head and looked at Lin Qiye, with a hint of smile on her lips, "It seems that I am the only one who can tell whether they are real or fake now... Then, can we discuss the terms?"
"What terms do you want to negotiate?"
"I'll help you identify all the fake monsters, and let Huo Qubing remove the [Heart-Returning Gu] for me... How do you think?"
"I can't make the decision for the Marquis on this matter." Lin Qiye paused for a moment, "However, I can help you try to persuade the Marquis, but I can't guarantee the result... Of course, if you make great contributions to the Han Dynasty this time, I think with the Marquis's clear character of distinguishing between gratitude and resentment, he should not refuse."
"make a deal!"
Lin Qiye nodded, and after a moment added, "Don't be clever when trying to tell the difference. The body will naturally prove whether what you said is true or false... If I find out that you are confusing right and wrong, I will be the first to kill you."
"Don't worry, I would not bother to do such a thing." Gong Yangwan said calmly.
Lin Qiye was about to leave when his foot suddenly stopped in mid-air. After hesitating for a moment, he pointed at the black spring behind him:
"He's not a fake...right?"
Gong Yangwan turned his head to look at Wuquan. The eyeball on the end of the willow branch stared straight at Wuquan.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and after a moment, nodded:
"Well, he's not."
…
Outside the palace.
"Lady Saint, you are finally back!"
Inside the post station, seeing the familiar figure returning, all the missionaries stood up with joy on their faces!
"Lady Saint, are you not hurt?"
"What are you talking about? You are the Holy Lord's messenger, how could you be injured?"
"Lady Saint, have all the chaotic troops outside been killed?"
Chloe walked into the house surrounded by the missionaries and nodded slightly, "Yeah, it's all taken care of."
She walked to the wooden chair by the window and sat down, taking a long breath. This was the first time she had killed so many people since she left the Holy Lord and entered the human world to preach... Although she knew that those were all fakes transformed from monsters, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
A missionary brought a basin of hot water to Chloe and gently placed it next to her. He stood up and was about to say something, but he saw the window out of the corner of his eye and suddenly froze in place.
"Lady Saint...what is that?"
Chloe raised her eyebrows and looked in the direction of his finger. Under the dim sky, in the wilderness outside Chang'an City, a large cloud of hazy smoke was slowly approaching...
The range of the smoke was very large, and it looked like colorful auspicious clouds in the night sky, illuminating the dark night sky into colorful colors. Countless people who survived the disaster saw this scene, stopped, and knelt down as if they had seen a miracle!
"That's..." Chloe's pupils shrank slightly.
