Purgatory Artist-Chapter 225: Lilith’s Doll

By the dry riverbed.

A group of people were walking in silence.

"Where are you going?" Liu Ping asked as he walked.

"Through this river and forest, to the canyon in the west." Norton replied.

"Canyon?"

Liu Ping recalled the terrain and said: "Long Wind Canyon, then?"

"I've already contacted them, the people from Mechanus will be waiting for us there." Norton said.

"Mechanus ... I see." Liu Ping said.

On the map given by the Spirit of the Ancient Tree, Mechanus was in the north.

It was one of the more famous shelters.

If he followed the group to Mechanus, he would be able to escape the pursuit of the Venomous Snake and the Soul Slayer Ant Queen and travel at full speed towards the snow mountain to meet up with Hua Qingkong!

"Liu Ping, your healing skills are quite good, you must quickly increase your strength and have more means to protect yourself." Norton suddenly said.

"Alright, thanks for the reminder." Liu Ping regained his senses and replied.

"Don't blame me for being long-winded, there are just too few healing card users." Norton sighed.

Liu Ping smiled and didn't say anything else.

In front of his eyes, lines of burning text quickly appeared:

[Your 'Life Saving Art' technique drained 26 Soul Points from the target]

[Your target is in a dying state]

[Your current Soul Points have been converted to Experience Points for calculation]

[Congratulations]

[Your Experience Points have reached 125%]

[Your level has increased to: 9]

[All your attributes have increased by 1]

[Your Soul Points limit has increased to 18]

[The power of the mystic laws linger in the void, waiting for your summons]

[You will receive a chance to strengthen an existing skill]

[Please choose carefully]

Liu Ping raised his eyebrows in surprise.

So it wasn't necessary to obtain a new skill, it could also strengthen an existing skill.

Then, how should he choose?

He thought for a while and made his decision.

Lines of burning text continued to appear, recording the situation:

[You've made your decision]

[Your spell: Holy Chant has been strengthened once]

[Congratulations]

[As you've already upgraded Holy Chant to a silent spell, this upgrade will directly increase your healing ability]

[The laws of Evernight have been infused into your body, raising your Sacred Chant to a whole new level]

[You've obtained a new spell: Divine Healing]

[Description: Its effect is stronger than Holy Chant. While healing, the target will not be harmed by curses and magic for 3 seconds.]

[Release Requirement: 1 Soul point]

All the words disappeared in a flash.

Another line of burning words appeared:

[This Ui has detected that card masters will receive a large increase in power every ten levels]

[Please reach level 10 as soon as possible]

Level 10?

Liu Ping silently remembered it in his heart.

Suddenly.

Norton's voice sounded.

"Attention, everyone. Don't make a sound."

Everyone was shocked.

Demonic Ants gradually emerged from the wild woods around them.

They gathered from all directions and crawled back and forth on the long dry riverbed as if they were looking for something.

"Don't worry, everyone ... The secret path won't be discovered. We're not in the same space as them."

Norton shouted.

"Then, how will they catch us?" Liu Ping asked.

"Unless someone acts as a spy." Norton answered.

He turned around and continued: "I'm surrounded by old friends who've been together for decades, and you're someone who's been recognized by the Spirit of the Ancient Tree, there won't be any problems."

Old friends?

Liu Ping's gaze turned towards the caravan behind them.

I'm afraid it's too late.

I have to do something.

"Lilith."

"I'm here."

"Can you let me temporarily control that corpse?"

"Of course, this is my ability to begin with."

"Activate it now!"

"Very well."

...

Colin looked at his comrade on the stretcher, feeling a bit uneasy.

It was clearly just an act, yet he's so heavily injured.

The rest of the mission is on me.

Can I complete it?

While he was thinking, Norton's voice came from the front.

Demonic Ants?

Colin stood up and looked around.

The Demonic Ants that covered the entire mountain are here.

The moment I've been waiting for is finally here!

Colin was overjoyed and wanted to take something out from his chest.

It was a card that the Hibernator personally gave to him, able to build a bridge in space and destroy the power of the 'Hidden Path' from the inside!

He clenched the card and was about to activate it, but was suddenly grabbed by a hand. novelbuddy.cσ๓

"You."

Colin shivered in fright.

Looking down, he saw that his comrade had woken up and was grabbing him.

Colin was overjoyed, he couldn't help but squat down and quickly said: "You really know how to play dead, you're so proactive when it comes to taking credit. Hurry up and protect me, I'm going to release that card."

"Don't use that card." his comrade said.

"Ah? Why? "Colin was a bit cautious and defensive, he clenched the card even tighter.

As if ready to throw it out at any moment.

"You'll alert the enemy like this" his comrade slowly said.

He glanced at the card, then at the void of space.

That was close!

That was a close call!

"I've already found a more valuable target, if we alert him now, he'll escape again" he continued.

"Can you take responsibility for your own words?" Colin stared at him for a bit and asked.

"Of course, what kind of situation do you think I'm going to mess around like this?" his comrade asked.

Colin's expression darkened.

He thought for a bit, held the card with one hand, opened the card book with the other and put his hand on a card.

The card instantly disappeared.

"I've already used the only sound transmission card I have, you can report it to the higher-ups yourself, I can't take responsibility for that." Colin said.

"No problem." his comrade glanced at him.

This guy is really cautious, not letting go of the card in his hand that can destroy everything for even a second.

At the very next moment.

A resounding voice resounded in their ears at the same time.

"You've been following Norton all this time, constantly reporting your coordinates, now that we're about to close the net, why aren't you doing anything?"

It's the Soul Slayer Ant Queen!

It's here to ask about this matter!

Colin was shocked and respectfully answered: "Venerable great being, my comrade said that now isn't the time, I don't know what he means, but he must have something to report to you personally."

"Speak!" the Soul Slayer Ant Queen said impatiently.

"Venerable great being, I've found a strange guy, he's a young man about 14 years old, with a palm-sized girl by his side, I think this situation needs to be reported first, then we'll wait for your decision."

The other side went silent for a moment.

Suddenly, a woman's voice came:

"You've done well, make sure not to alert them, they're very good at escaping!"

The Soul Slayer Ant Queen's surprised voice came: "Don't do anything, wait for us to come, got it? Wait for us! "

The woman stopped the Soul Slayer Ant Queen's voice and solemnly said: "Remember, this is a huge contribution, make sure you don't give yourself away, make sure to stay calm and wait for us to arrive, where are you?"

"The Grey Stone Forest. " Colin hurriedly answered.

"Sir! Colin almost alerted them just now, he's in a hurry to take the credit, and he doesn't trust my judgment, I hope that I'll be responsible for holding the card that can break the spatial barrier. "his comrade said.

"You." Colin stared straight at his comrade.

"Do you dare say that wasn't the case just now? Come, in front of the two of them, we have to make this clear, we can't be careless. "his comrade asked.

Colin opened his mouth, but no words came out.

His comrade was right.

Even if he had ten thousand guts, he wouldn't dare to quibble in front of the two of them.

"Alright, you're more perceptive, and your judgment is correct, you'll be the one holding the card." the woman's voice sounded.

Her comrade reached out his hand.

Colin reluctantly handed the card over.

"My lords, I'll be waiting for your arrival."

The comrade said in a calm and reassuring voice.

The call ended.

Colin closed the card tome and was about to say a few harsh words.

A hand.

A hand reached out from behind and covered his mouth.

A dagger pierced through his chest.

Libertas' excited voice sounded:

"Aha, a new skill after leaving The Fool. I can smell the fresh scent of Evernight that it emits. It's as sweet as your death."

Continuous stabs.

Colin struggled desperately, his head constantly turning, but he saw a scene that made his hair stand on end.

At some point in time.

Around the caravan.

Many card masters were holding card tomes in their hands, releasing all kinds of isolating cards, so that whatever happened here would not be able to spread out.

The youth stood beside Norton and said with a leisurely expression.

"Lilith, he's yours too."

An excited feminine voice rang out:

"A brand new doll."

Doll?

Colin wanted to continue listening, but the world seemed to slowly sink as eternal darkness enveloped everything.

He couldn't hear the rest of the words.
