Chapter 1042: Chapter 1046: Blind Eye (Six) Chapter 1042: Chapter 1046: Blind Eye (Six) Judging from the reaction, it seemed that his “knowledge” hadn’t been misconstrued.
He successfully activated the power of the glove and, while condensing the Resonance Spike, Fu Qian didn’t forget to observe everyone’s reactions.
As it turned out, no one showed any sign of surprise; even from Lady Ice’s eyes, there seemed to be a look of appreciation for his execution.
At this time, the original inhabitant who had been lying on the ground was arching his back like a hunting leopard ready to pounce.
From this angle, he could see that the part of the body originally pressed under him had become completely melded with the clothes, looking for all the world like a living corpse of indeterminate age.
Nevertheless, Fu Qian still noticed a similar pattern of pupil-less eyes on the black robe, just like before.
A real native indeed, but a pity.
Although he didn’t know how it had come to this, it was clear that the leopard was unable to answer questions.
With a somewhat regretful sigh, Fu Qian didn’t keep his teammates waiting, and with the spike at its peak of concentration, he took aim and threw it.
Perhaps because it had just woken up, the ghoul’s movements were not very agile. With a flash of golden light, it was accurately headshot.
Fu Qian himself was also headshot.
In that instant, it felt as if a bucket of molten iron had been poured into his head, the intense heat shooting straight to the heavens, as if he could even smell the fragrance of his brain matter.
Was that backfire a bit too strong?
And was this kind of mental shock really effective against these ghouls that might no longer have any sense of self?
Savoring the enchanting fragrance of wit, Fu Qian kept his glove raised, ready to fire another shot if necessary.
…
It seemed that it actually did have an effect.
As the golden light penetrated the ghoul’s brain, the original inhabitant, although still staring at him, had completely stopped moving.
“Hello there!”
Obligated by his polite nature, Fu Qian nodded slightly in response to such attention.
Unfortunately, although it seemed the ghoul had attempted to open its mouth, emitting a sound like that of a cracking egg, which rapidly grew more intense.
Within a few seconds, countless butterfly-like fragments began to fall from its pallid face and quickly spread over its entire body, silently decaying into a heap of ash.
Was it truly specialized against monsters?
For a team that was supposedly exploring for the first time, wasn’t their preparation a bit too thorough?
After confirming the instant kill, Fu Qian finally lowered his hand, but an inkling of doubt arose within him.
And from the corner of his eye, it seemed he wasn’t the only one feeling perplexed.
At that moment, more than half of the team members were assessing him with incomprehensible looks.
“All set.”
Confronting their scrutiny, Fu Qian nodded.
“Is your left hand okay?”
Unfortunately, instead of any commendation, it was Lady Ice who couldn’t help but ask first.
These people also knew about the serious side effects!
Fu Qian naturally understood the source of their astonishment; it was simply because his own reaction was too nonchalant.
To tell the truth, this was also puzzling for him. Although it was proven that this move was effective against monsters, the cost seemed to be something an ordinary person couldn’t bear.
Without any special combat training to counter the effect, being able to use such an attack once an hour would already be quite impressive.
Even for someone like him, who had undergone special training, after firing a barrage, he would probably need to allow for a cooldown to let his brain cool down a bit.
In short, such a boss-fight move with a long cooldown period could be understandable, but to have it arranged first thing to lead the way made it impossible not to suspect an ulterior motive.
“Very good.”
The next moment, Fu Qian looked at Ice with a smiley face, even extending his left forefinger to blow on it.
“I’ve granted him a release.”
“This…”
This peculiar line made not only Ice’s smile stiffen slightly, but Charlotte beside her couldn’t help but glance at Sage, her expression more serious than when someone had died just moments before.
“Don’t worry, the performance of my left hand is very good and there’s no problem with its condition.”
However, facing his doubts, Sage Old Master merely glanced and signaled that there was no need to worry.
“He has simply relied on his willpower to control that mental influence, which is actually good news for us.”
Sure enough, my own vanguard tactics had a hidden reason behind them, and Sage Old Master’s Insight ability was truly remarkable.
Charlotte and her group took a breath of relief, and at the same time, Fu Qian also received the results of his probing. He felt ever more that this team was worth collaborating with.
“I must say, Left Hand, your performance in actual combat really is a surprise!”
Laid-back Ice, now with a sly and charming smile, did not hide her praise.
“But even so, we can’t ignore the side effects of Heart Calamity. Step back and rest for a while.”
The effects of the “Holy Garment” were known not only to the wearer.
Silently drawing another conclusion and realizing there were no objections from the others to Ice’s statement, Fu Qian didn’t stand on ceremony. He immediately stepped back from the front to her side, leaving Brother TP as the main vanguard.
“Alright, let’s continue.”
With just a glance, Sage Old Master directly signaled for the team to move on. But this time, the direction he pointed to…
The passage behind the native undead led to an open hall, seemingly a single path spiraling downwards.
However, Sage Old Master’s Golden Staff pointed into the air in another direction.
It looked like following that direction would end with a headfirst tumble.
But at this moment, Brother TP displayed his professionalism. With only slight hesitation, he bent down to grab a handful of dust from the ground and tossed it in the direction Sage had indicated.
In the supposedly empty air, an entire plane abruptly appeared.
Visible to the naked eye, the dust adhering to it was fading bit by bit as if merging into it.
Now it seemed understandable how this thing managed to stay transparent.
And with this event, the credibility of Sage Old Master’s words undoubtedly skyrocketed.
Without any more hesitation, Brother TP signaled for the others to wait and stepped onto this “path,” advancing step by step.
And upon truly crossing through the air, Brother TP finally reached a high point on the opposite side of the hall and, after some searching, forcefully opened a Dark Gate.
In the hushed silence, the sound of friction was particularly grating.
Nothing sprang out.
On high alert, Brother TP, who had placed his Gold Shield in front, subconsciously let out a breath of relief realizing there was no surprise attack upon opening the door.
“Above.”
However, at that moment, Brother Shi Gaozhi uttered a warning.
Startled, Brother TP lifted his gaze and saw, silently and without warning, three distinct faces peering out from above.

Ding, ding!
Thanks to Brother Shi Gaozhi’s warning, Brother TP’s Gold Shield blocked two incoming swipes.
Nevertheless, what caught everyone’s attention the most was the one farthest away, whose claw couldn’t reach.
On its deformed hand, it was in fact gathering a familiar golden spike.
So that’s how it was!
