“I have truly become a slave… a member of the prestigious Shadow Clan…”
After signing the contract, Phantom's lips twitched, looking extremely aggrieved.
Lin Xu glanced at the Phantom.
The little devil's clothes were torn to shreds, and now she's completely naked.
Although this beautiful woman still has a great figure even after being shrunk, if this beautiful sight isn't covered up, it will be seen by others sooner or later.
He had no interest in sharing the beautiful appearance of his female slave with others.
Lin Xu flipped his hand and took out a Tao Yao suit from his personal space.
These were a batch of small clothes that Xiaoyu made using the materials after dismantling Wang En's knight castle.
Lin Xu threw the skirt suit at Meiying's head:
"Put your clothes on first. I don't want to mistreat slaves."
Phantom took the clothes, and upon hearing the word "slave," her eyes twitched, and she felt an urge to explode.
However, she held back, thinking it was better not to offend this terrifying man in front of her.
But when she picked up the suit and started to put it on, she had some doubts.
Why does this man carry girls' clothes with him? And they're even small-sized little girls' clothes?
Does this man have some kind of unusual fetish?
Phantom looked at Lin Xu with a suspicious expression.
Lin Xu and Phantom are still in a state of soul fusion, and are bound by a slave contract, so he can vaguely sense what this female demon is thinking.
He immediately raised an eyebrow, stretched out his finger, and flicked the Phantom's forehead hard:
"How dare you slander your master! It seems you haven't figured out your place yet!"
The Phantom screamed and retreated miserably, clutching its forehead:
"You're abusing your slave! Are you going to assault your beautiful slave?!"
The phantom cried out in anguish.
Lin Xu's lips twitched, but he ignored Mei Ying.
Phantom rubbed her forehead vigorously again, but after glancing at Lin Xu, she had a strange feeling in her heart.
In fact, she had been trapped in this ruin for two thousand years.
She had encountered other adventurers before, but none of them had the chance to get close to her.
This is the first time in two thousand years that she has been in such close contact with someone.
Although the man's tapping on her forehead was a bit rough, it was a touch she hadn't felt in a long time.
How many years has it been since she had any contact with anyone else?
Phantom felt a strange sensation rising within her, even a little nostalgic for the moment Lin Xu had touched her.
The next moment, the female demon was startled, then shook her head violently.
How could that be!
She is a descendant of the Shadow Clan, and a high-ranking Shadow!
She was only imprisoned for two thousand years, how could she possibly become a masochist because of that!
Especially those servants who enjoy being abused by this terrifying man.
This is not in keeping with her status!
Lin Xu saw that Phantom was muttering to herself with her head down, and didn't listen carefully to the female demon's thoughts.
However, after looking at the ruins, he asked:
"So I've cleared all the levels in the ruins now, right? What's the final reward for these ruins?"
The Phantom's thoughts were interrupted, and she only came to her senses at this moment.
Then she also showed a hint of confusion:
"I don't know what the final reward of this ruin will be. Because I've never seen anyone else complete it."
Lin Xu curled his lip:
"What a useless slave."
The phantom glared at him, immediately feeling embarrassed and angry.
But before the phantom could begin its menacing rebuttal, a sudden tremor emanated from the ruins.
A blinding light shone down from the top of the cave.
A round stone altar rose from beneath the ground, upon which were placed two reward items.
Lin Xu looked at the two items and confirmed that they were not traps. He knew that these two items should be the rewards after clearing the level.
He first picked up a parchment scroll from the side, and then saw a diagram of a riddle drawn on it, along with coordinates and a name written on it:
[The final piece of the Shadow Ruins: The Fire Demon Ruins]
[Coordinates: Area C, -111, -123, 8]
[Relics Appearance Countdown: Appearing within 10 days]
Looking at the map, Lin Xu remembered that the Black Goat Ruins were a series of interconnected ruins.
This is only the penultimate ring of the ruins. Only when we reach the final ring of the ruins can we truly decipher the entire mystery.
In other words, the current relic rewards should not be considered the final result of a chain of relic sites.
And this ruin is called the Flame Demon Ruins?
Is there any connection between this thing and black goats?
Could it be someone the Phantom knows?
Lin Xu looked at Mei Ying and decided to ask this woman about it after he left.
Then he looked around the ruins. Although he was somewhat prepared for this kind of harvest, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Is it possible that all this hard work will yield no additional benefits?
There's only one next step on the map, plus another reward?
Lin Xu looked down at the reward again.
This thing is different from a map; it's a milky-white sickle.
This thing should be the same type of item as the Soul Scythe, and also some kind of soul weapon.
Lin Xu picked up the milky-white sickle to examine it, and was immediately disappointed again.
This thing really is something like a soul scythe.
It should even be more advanced than the scythe that Phantom used before.
However, Lin Xu now has multiple stacked blue scythes, so this reward scythe is not enough.
Unless he breaks this reward scythe into pieces and adds them to his blue scythe, this milky-white scythe is now useless and has no significant purpose.
Lin Xu was disappointed, but when he turned his head, he saw the Phantom next to him staring longingly at the milky white scythe.
The female slave had a longing look on her face:
"Master...Master, is this scythe useful to you?"
Lin Xu's brow twitched.
Speaking of which, the scythe that Phantom used to wield, which he used in a fight, is now shattered on the ground.
This weapon originally had self-repairing capabilities; even if it was broken, as long as the owner's soul power remained, the weapon would be repaired rapidly.
However, after Phantom's scythe broke, Lin Xu collected it and directly made a new scythe, so her weapon could not be restored and was completely broken.
Without that scythe, the female demon's fighting power would decrease by at least 80%.
Lin Xu thought for a moment and asked:
"You've forgotten how to upgrade the Soul Scythe, but do you still remember how to create the Primal Scythe?"
The Phantom tilted his head and thought back for a moment:
"Of course I remember! This is something I came up with after researching a lot of information. As long as I have the right conditions and materials, I can make a new primitive sickle!"
As she said this, the Phantom added somewhat guiltily:
"However, while the primitive scythe is relatively easy to forge, upgrading it and acquiring new properties is still very difficult. I may have forgotten a lot of the relevant memories..."
Meiying was worried that Lin Xu would blame her, and she had an urge to crouch down and cover her head in defense.
However, Lin Xu waved his hand:
"Knowing how to make the primitive scythe is enough. You can have this reward scythe. If you want this scythe to be upgraded in the future, I can help you."
As long as the Phantom knows how to make the original scythe, he can keep obtaining scythe fragments.
With multiple layers, even a primitive scythe can be transformed into a super weapon.
Phantom was surprised that Lin Xu didn't scold her. She looked up at Lin Xu's expression in surprise, and then she saw Lin Xu throw the milky white scythe over to her.
She quickly reached out and caught it:
"This top-quality weapon... you're just handing it over to me like this?"
Lin Xu raised an eyebrow:
"What's wrong? You are my slave now. The stronger you are, the better it is for me. What's wrong with me giving you some weapons?"
The Phantom was still somewhat stunned.
She recalled how her people treated human slaves when she lived among them.
Those tribesmen would never give weapons to human slaves, much less empower them to defend themselves.
From the moment those people submitted, they faced endless mockery and torture, barely surviving and maintaining the survival of their race. They could never obtain such favorable conditions.
Is the current system of slavery different from that of the past?
Phantom was somewhat confused about her current situation.
She glanced at Lin Xu cautiously, making sure the man in front of her didn't have any ulterior motives, before putting the sickle into her bosom.
A moment later, due to the powerful soul fluctuations of the scythe in his hand, and the soul-nourishing function it demonstrated, the phantom gradually smiled again and began to twirl the scythe in his hand with smug satisfaction.
