Chapter 233: A Supernatural Entity Shows Up!
Lu Siya looked puzzled. “Lin Chuan, what’s all this about Demonic Halberd Pigs and Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons? I don’t understand. Are you too wounded? Did your brain get fried by the spirit energy magnetic field interference?”
“Perhaps I’ve been pretending to be ignorant for too long, so I’ve never asked you a question.” Lin Chuan turned around and stared at Lu Siya. He asked slowly and clearly, “In your heart, do you treat me like a dog?”
Lu Siya could not believe what he said, “Lin Chuan, what are you saying? How would I possibly think of you as a dog? We’re best friends!”
“Are we?” Lin Chuan laughed in a tragic manner. “From the moment we met Shen Yulong underground, he mocked me multiple times that I’m your loyal dog, and you never spoke up to refute him.
“When we were in school, your rich friends mocked me multiple times that I’m a pet kept by the Lu family and am the same as your personal bodyguard, Lu Fengyin. They said we’re just two loyal hunting dogs to you. Have you ever defended me against that?”
“How could I not have?” Lu Siya said anxiously. “Back then, I always fought against Shen Yulong because of you. I told them repeatedly that you’re on my side, and I will definitely protect you. I’d skin whoever touches even a strand of your hair.”
“That’s where the problem is,” Lin Chuan said. “Siya, right from the start, you never understood one thing. I’m not your dog, and neither am I on your side. I belong to myself.”
“… You’re sick, Lin Chuan. The radiation from the spirit energy magnetic field is affecting your brain, and you’re really sick. You might even be suffering through spirit energy deviation right now!”
Lu Siya spread her arms and tried to ease up the atmosphere. “It’s fine. Sky Pillar Corporation has the best medical equipment, and they specialize in treating illnesses in the head caused by radiation from crystal mines. You just need to calm down right now and let go of Shen Yulong. Come back to my side. It’ll be fine. Everything will be fine.”
Lin Chuan smiled. He continued tightening his grip, and his fingers turned into steel clamps, which closed on Shen Yulong’s throat so tightly that his eyes bulged out. His spine let out cracking sounds.
“Let him go!” Lu Siya became angry. “This is an order, let him go!”
“Look. You finally said what you’re really thinking,” Lin Chuan smiled and said, “If you don’t treat me as a loyal, obedient dog, how would you think that you have the right to order me around?”
“You…” Lu Siya became anxious and angry. Suddenly, she intersected her fingers and danced like a snake while chanting swiftly.
All the spikes that had entered Shen Yulong’s body suddenly retreated and fused with the ground.
Then, a sharp spike shot out from beside Lin Chuan to stab the arm he used to choke Shen Yulong.
Lin Chuan could only let go, but the spike still managed to break his skin.
Shen Yulong screeched, and like a balloon with all the air inside escaping, he instantly jumped more than ten meters away.
“You injured me for him?” Lin Chuan remained expressionless. With narrowed pupils, he observed the wound on his arm. It was not deep, but it was not light either. Once again, he laughed to himself. “That’s right. After all, you’re the same type of people. You’re all Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons.
“Even if Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons fight fiercely against each other and make each other bleed, they won’t just stand by and watch while a lowly, filthy, and stinking Demonic Halberd Pig crawls over them and tramples on the glory of the Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons.”
“Lin Chuan, snap out of it. Do you even know what you’re doing?!” When Lu Siya saw that he was injured by her own hand, she felt her heart ache for him, but she was also puzzled and angry. She gritted her teeth and said, “I don’t have a lot of friends, and you’re the most important among them. Stop forcing my hand!”
Shen Yulong scrambled more than ten meters away before he finally dared to stop and cover his neck while gasping for breath. In puzzlement, he watched Lin Chuan and Lu Siya. He could not understand what these two bastards were trying to do.
“Shen Yulong, don’t run away. I’m just going to ask you one question. Did you ask a mine explorer in white to make our wall collapse?” Lu Siya’s eyes were fixed on Lin Chuan, but the question was directed at Shen Yulong.
He was stunned. “What mine explorer in white? I don’t have anyone in white in my team.”
“That’s right. Mine explorers who venture underground seldom wear white, because they get dirty easily. When they do these sort of tricks in the dark, they don’t wish to stand out either.” Lu Siya’s pupils shrank bit by bit. As she stared at Lin Chuan, her expression filled with resentment and pain, and her voice trembled.
“Now, I can finally understand why there has been a voice in my heart shouting at me not to reveal my trump car, but unfortunately for me, I didn’t believe in my own instincts. Or rather, my trust for you suppressed my instincts of a Spirit Sensor!
“Lin Chuan, the white figure who made the wall collapse wasn’t Shen Yulong’s subordinate but your companion, right?”
Lin Chuan swiped at the blood and grime on his face.
This motion caused all the emotions that had been accumulating in him for years to be fully unleashed on his incredibly handsome face.
At that moment, he had become…
Meng Chao snuck a glance at Qin Hu, who was beside him.
At that moment, Lin Chuan had become uglier than Qin Hu.
“Why did you suddenly look at me?” Qin Hu asked.
“It’s nothing. Be quiet. All the people up there are bad guys. We have to be careful not to be discovered.”
As they spoke, something happened on the cliff again.
After catching his breath for a while, Shen Yulong recovered some strength, and he staggered toward the way back.
Lin Chuan and Lu Siya were busy being in a stalemate, so neither of them could divert their attention to deal with him.
When Shen Yulong ran into the subsurface plasma, Lu Siya suddenly shuddered and shouted, “Shen Yulong, come back!”
But it was already too late.
Shen Yulong’s scream tore through the subsurface plasma, and a white monster’s savage and strange figure came out from it.
It bit Shen Yulong’s neck, and with a crack, his spine snapped. Shen Yulong’s cervical vertebrae broke, and blood gushed out of his artery.
Shen Yulong’s eyes bulged out, and he died on the spot.
The white monster tossed Shen Yulong’s corpse back between Lin Chuan and Lu Siya. Then, it calmly revealed itself.
It was a wolf-shaped monster that could not be considered large.
Its eyes shone with a profound light, which meant that it possessed intellect that did not lose to that of a human, but it also had the cunning of a fox.
Its fur was as white as snow, and it had a crystalline quality to it. Not a speck of dust could be found on it.
Swinging behind it were three fluffy tails. They looked beautiful, but dangerous.
Qin Hu’s eyes went wide, and he mumbled in disbelief, “White Spirit?”
Meng Chao shuddered. “What?”
“This is a different type of Illusion Wolf. In the hunter’s circle, we call it White Spirit. Normal Illusion Wolves are just Grade One Nightmarish Beasts, and they can be considered to be distant cousins of the Demonic Blood Moon Wolves. They don’t have powerful talents, but they have a faint mind attack that can interfere with a human’s brain waves. They can then create all sorts of illusions. They’re like the fox spirits in legends, but it’s not difficult to see through their illusions.
“But this Illusion Wolf is different. It’s very rare and is an abnormality that can evolve on its own will. Look at the three tails it has, that shows just how powerful it is.
“Monsters who are skilled in mind attacks usually have highly developed brains, and the heat dissipation issue they face when their brains work at high speed is always a major problem for them.
“Aside from the normal brain that Illusion Wolves have above their cervical vertebrae, they have a bundle of special nerves that are swelled up at the end of their caudal vertebrae. It’s like a second brain for them.
“It’s an organ to release mind attacks which can interfere with human brainwaves and create all sorts of illusions, and their fluffy tails can increase the surface area for heat dissipation, which is deliberately there to help their second brain dissipate heat.
“Normal Illusion Wolves only need one tail for heat dissipation.
“But this super Illusion Wolf has three tails to dissipate the heat because of its second brain. From this alone, you can tell just how strong its mind attacks are.
“By the way, this three-tailed Illusion Wolf goes way back with your Big Brother Lin. Lin Chuan has been staying in Shattered Starlake and Graveyard Forest for years because he has been hunting it. Don’t you know about it?”
“Of course I know,” Meng Chao said in a daze. “During Big Brother Lin’s first mission, he ran into this incredibly cunning Illusion Wolf and nearly suffered a party wipe. He was the only one who escaped.
“Big Brother Lin has a huge grudge against that Illusion Wolf, and to take revenge for his comrades, he formed a few hunts to take it down, but every time, his teams suffered heavy casualties and have come back dejected.
“Big Brother Lin’s hate has continued growing, and as he trained and hunted madly, he improved by leaps and bounds, but the three-tailed Illusion Wolf seems to be a genius among monsters as well. Its strength had flown over the roof, and it became his mortal enemy.
“Big Brother Lin has said multiple times in his broadcasts that half of the tears he shed as the Weeping Reaper are for the Three-tailed Illusion Wolf. If he doesn’t kill it, he won’t come back to enjoy his life in Dragon City. He will definitely fight against this monster until one of them dies.
“But why have I never heard that this three-tailed Illusion Wolf has the nickname of White Spirit?”
“This is a nickname that has only recently spread around,” Qin Hu explained. “In the northern offense, this three-tailed Illusion Wolf moves through Graveyard Forest like an elusive spirit and by now has killed more than ten hunters. Recently, it killed two four-star superhumans back to back, and it became a lot of hunters’ nightmare.
“You know that we aren’t that afraid of high-grade monsters who are born strong. They just have brute strength. Their attacks are monotonous, and they’re huge creatures who can’t understand human strategies. They don’t pose any real threat to our teamwork and steel army.
“But these sort of mutated types who can evolve very quickly, have great learning abilities, and are incredibly cunning and fierce get more and more troublesome the longer they live.
“This creature has risen from a Grade One Nightmarish Beast to a Grade Four Hell Beast in just a few short years since the first time it appeared and attacked Lin Chuan’s squad. No one knows just what sort of terrifying existence it will become if we don’t kill it soon.
“So, the hunters named it White Spirit. The Supernatural Tower also put a high bounty on its head because they want to get rid of it and be free of trouble. It’s a surprise that it not only did not run far away, it actually went under Raging Waves!”
Meng Chao’s eyes widened further.
White Spirit! White Spirit! White Spirit!
This name was like a burning steel needle that crawled out of the depths of the memories from his previous life.
White Spirit, one of the Nine Great Supernatural Entities!
Nine Great Supernatural Entities were so intelligent that they were nearly at the level of supernatural beings. These nine creatures not only had Apocalyptic Level destructive power at the end of the Monster War but also great intelligence, which allowed them to have a good understanding of human civilization. They even tried to gather all monsters to upgrade monster tribes into monster civilizations. They were the ultimate superbeasts!
Among them was the Nine-tailed Illusion Wolf, White Spirit. Its most terrifying talent was not the illusions that normal Illusion Wolves created.
It was mind control. It could control human hearts!
