To be honest, given this attitude, it would be perfectly reasonable for me not to save him.
I was already incredibly lucky that I didn't go up and give him a kick to get him into that deadly trap faster.
But then I thought about it again, and what he just said was indeed a bit strange, so I had to ask him to find out.
"You mean that water lord? I don't know anything about him. I only know that he's my creditor on this trip. I haven't brought him anything useful in a long time..."
The man's voice became very hoarse, and it increasingly sounded ghostly.
I looked at his body, and if I had just seen him then, I would definitely have mistaken him for a monster.
At this moment, Yiyi was also whispering to herself beside him.
"Brother, look, this person was so fierce just now, but now he's talking sweetly."
I nodded slightly, and then continued to ask the man questions.
"What does he mean by asking you to find the aura of a living person?"
I deliberately cleared my throat and spoke very slowly.
"If you want me to save you, you have to be clear about it and show the right attitude and sincerity! I advise you to think it through and tell me whether you understand or not!"
As I spoke, I watched the giant's reaction; its body became increasingly transparent and swelled.
It feels like you've been soaking in water for a long time.
And the few strands of hair on his head began to look less and less like hair, and more like dried seaweed.
The man's body paused for a moment, and then, with a whoosh, a piece of semi-transparent energy fell from his shoulder.
This energy contains some black elements!
Immediately afterwards, the blackness left the painter with not a single trace of air.
It's as if it's been diluted by the seawater.
I used my Heavenly Eye to examine him briefly and could clearly see that the black aura and malice on this person had been greatly reduced!
"Master, I can tell this guy's become much more timid!"
The sound of lightning striking the sword echoed in my mind.
That's for sure, his face was contorted in embarrassment as he was about to enter the aura.
But since he's already a ghost, I don't know what form he can take to perish.
Is it entering a more nihilistic state, or completely shutting down the senses?
Or did it vanish into thin air, as recorded or fabricated in some texts?
"Think quickly! We're about to go in!"
Lei Jijian also spoke up unexpectedly, urging the man to hurry.
The man seemed to have heard something extraordinary, but he didn't have the time or energy to pay attention to the sound of the lightning sword.
At this moment, he seemed to be desperately trying to remember, and his ethereal hand could still be seen pounding against his chest.
"I...I really don't know much about it!"
The man's voice was intermittent; he paused after each word, and his body became more transparent.
In that brief moment of hesitation, I could see the "flesh" on his shoulder—or more accurately, a patch of white mist.
It's starting to drop again...
"The informant I connected with was someone I initially linked to because he was cheap... that's why I teamed up with him!"
I frowned slightly, feeling quite puzzled.
Looking for a cheap option?
Even if it's cheap, you have to consider your own life!
But then I thought, if someone can get drunk on the street, they probably don't have any high aspirations.
He should be considered one of those outlaws.
Not only is he extremely courageous, but he also has extremely low intelligence.
At this moment, Yiyi was also talking to me from the side.
"Brother, this person is too stupid. He doesn't even know the other party's specific information, yet he dares to sign a contract?"
I didn't say anything because I sensed something was very wrong!
We are in the same situation. If our story were to be told, we would know that we had already signed the contract without knowing any information about the other party!
I'm wondering if, if it really comes to that, will we suffer the same punishment as this guy?
Although humans and ghosts are different, I think the general forms are similar.
"My communication with him is one-way; he's always the one who contacts me, and I don't even get a chance to reply!"
The man's voice was intermittent, and his body was so weak that I could see the cars behind him.
So this drunkard is just a freebie now!
They knew his background, but he had never even met them.
Isn't this just like sticking your head out and letting someone flick it on the head?
They're completely sold out, and they're even helping the seller count the money.
It's no wonder he's ended up like this.
I couldn't help but shake my head: "Brother, you're guaranteed to lose money, and you're still helping him find the signs of life in this situation!"
At this moment, the big man seemed even weaker, and I could even see a hint of red on his face.
It seemed to be a somewhat awkward color, and his voice sounded very aggrieved.
“I had no choice… I couldn’t even breathe back then, and he said that if I did things for him, he could… give me something to keep me alive, so that’s why I did it…”
At this point, the big man let out a very long sound from his throat, and then he coughed loudly twice.
The transparent body swayed violently forward, almost being sucked into the halo.
But this guy, by sheer bad luck, managed to hold on.
"I really don't know, all I know is that he can control me..."
Just then, the halo's suction seemed to increase, and the big guy let out a long, sharp cry of pain.
At this moment, he was pulled forward a little more.
I could see it clearly; at that moment, he was less than a meter away from that halo!
The tubes in his chest gradually turned from green to black, and now only two or three remain.
Black liquid kept dripping down his chest.
Unsurprisingly, those things instantly turned into smoke before they hit the ground.
The man seemed to think he was beyond saving, and suddenly raised his voice, as if he were having a final burst of energy before death.
"I know... I can tell you everything I know! As for that water lord, I couldn't find out anything about him, but he's a respected commoner!"
He doesn't hold a specific position... he's a freelancer!
After years of lying low, he has now basically established connections and can mobilize a great deal of resources!
At this point, the man was suddenly and completely sucked into the halo.
And at that very moment, the halo, like a television set, was turned off.
It's as if nothing happened!
