The Death List Novel - Chapter 351
Chapter 351 Hand-run
“Chi la!” In the empty sealed room, a tall vertical eye suddenly appeared. A brilliant dot of light shot out from the teleportation portal. Within seconds, it had grown from nothing and reconstructed an apostle’s body of Laws.
The Apostle Soul Seal was protected by Laws in the shattered starry sky and would not suffer any damage upon returning from another world. The protection of the Laws would not disappear again until the construction of the Laws Body was complete.
Of course, if they were in another world, then without such protection, they would still be in danger when they returned. This was also one of the reasons why the Broken Star System required the apostles to return in a non-combat state, as well as in an unmonitored state.
Qin Lun opened his eyes and saw the white wall of the teleportation room. However, the young man did not immediately get up and leave. When he returned, he had made an agreement with Rand to wait for him to leave together to discuss the matter of the Killer Demon Team.
After the incident in York City, Rand was once again involved in the sub-plot of the Isle of Greed. If he could return safely, it would probably be a few minutes later. Qin Lun also took this opportunity to sit down cross-legged and start recalling what he had obtained in the Hunter’s World.
Although the settlement of the mission to Shatter the Universe had been completed, there were still two questions that Qin Lun wanted to clarify. One was that the Broken Star Sky had determined that he had killed three regiment members, and the other was that the “chivalrous doll” he originally owned had not returned to his storage space.
In the Hunter’s World, Qin Lun had killed Watkin and the chivalrous man. There was no doubt about that. Both of their reward items had already fallen. Even if the Phantom Brigade finally used a certain ability to free the puppet doll’s soul, the Broken Star Sky would not deny this battle result.
However, these were only two regiment members, and the last of the three battle results that Shattered Star Sky had determined was still lacking. In fact, two members of the Phantom Brigade had died-Watkin and Pikonoda. The Knight was finally rescued by Didi and March.
Qin Lun thought for a while, and in the end, he could only think that the death of Pycnoda had been counted as a result of his battle.
It was possible. Although Paikonoda had died in the Chain of Judgment because she had violated Coolapika’s rules, the cause of her death should be attributed to Qin Lun. Even the Phantom Brigade thought so.
As for the “chivalrous doll” not automatically returning to its storage space, this surprised Qin Lun. Apostle equipment is a very mysterious thing. Its essence is an additional law that connects the Apostle Soul Seal and an extension of the Apostle Law Body.
As long as the master did not give up his ownership, even if the other apostles found it on the battlefield, they would not be able to own it. In the end, they would return to the original master’s storage space. In order to obtain apostle items from other apostles, apart from normal transactions, they had to be extracted from the Bloody Magic Cube.
Qin Lun was surprised that the swordsman’s sewn-up body could not return. This was within his expectations, but he was surprised that not even the puppet doll in his body had returned. This meant that the shattered starry sky was subject to certain restrictions in the alien world. Under certain conditions, the apostle equipment would be seized by the original inhabitants of the alien space-time.
In this way, Qin Lun could vaguely feel that the chivalrous man might not be dead, and that he might have been resurrected by his companions from the Phantom Brigade. After all, the “chivalrous doll” had an artifact soul and a body. As long as the artifact soul was liberated, it would most likely be reunited with the body and resurrected.
Thinking of this, Qin Lun took out the World’s Special Treasure from his storage space, and a smile appeared on his face. He now vaguely understood why the shattered starry sky counted Pycnoda’s death as a result of his battle, and had given him such a thing.
This world’s special treasure was a palm-sized glass doll. Its texture was a bit like ceramics, but it wasn’t as brittle as ceramics. The tiny glass-haired man was wearing a woman’s suit and a short skirt with one hand on his waist and an indifferent expression. It was precisely Pycnoda’s hand (a model of a collectible character).
This hand was not a pure artifact soul, but a complete apostle item, a dark gold-quality special puppet. Qin Lun estimated that this should be a compensation given to him by the Shattered Universe. After all, the puppet doll had not returned, and the Shattered Universe was also slightly responsible for the flaws in the Laws.
Because the ability to think was essentially life energy, and Parknolda’s hand had no body, this Parknolda could only rely on Qin Lun’s energy and HP to survive.
From the description on the death list, it could be seen that Paikonoda possessed the soul of this brigade beauty, retained her previous memories and combat experience, and still had the ability to “explore memories”. However, without the life energy of her body, she was no longer able to use such a powerful technique as “Consciousness Ballet”.
However, the “Parknolda” Hand Office was different from ordinary apostle items. It was a special item that could not be repaired by external forces.
Parknolda’s Hand (Special Puppet)
Quality: Dark Gold
Material: Soul Item
Weight: 25g
Item Laws: Memory Retrospection, Shared Life
Memory Retrospection: As long as a part of the body touches the other party, it can explore the other party’s deep memories through questioning, and can compress the memories into mindballs that can be fed back to others.
Shared Life: With the consent of the owner, the Handler can return the damage to the owner and recover the damage. And vice versa, he could withstand the damage his master suffered.
Equipment Description: This Hand Office possesses the memories and combat experience of its original soul. It can recover its original spiritual power system with the improvement of its owner’s strength. Once the manual is completely damaged, it will not be able to be repaired in any way. The handler has a sense of self, can reject the owner’s request, and is forced into a state of drowsiness.
Qin Lun looked at Pycnoda’s hand and sighed. He helplessly threw it back into his storage space. Since this thing possessed self-awareness, then its growth potential would be great. Perhaps it would be able to recover its formerly formidable strength.
However, he was a mortal enemy of Pycnoda and killed her companions, Watkin and the chivalrous man. Pycnoda’s furious soul would never be willing to help him. If he were to stumble over him at a critical moment, he would die in grief.
After resting for a while and seeing that it was almost time, Qin Lun stood up and left the teleportation room, waiting for Rand’s return in the hall.
“Qin Lun!” A few minutes later, a loud voice sounded from behind the youth.
“You are … Rand!” Qin Lun turned around and looked at a handsome young man behind him. He was a little surprised, “Is this your concealed image?”
“No, this is my original appearance from a few years ago!” Rand shook his head, his eyes shining with reminiscence.
“So it’s like this!” Qin Lun was relieved. Fireworks Rand was originally a well-trained firefighter, so his body naturally couldn’t be weak. In the past, he would turn into a sad middle-aged man with a stooped body. It could be seen how severe the mental trauma that blow had left him.
“Come and sit at my place. When we call Hill and the others over tonight, perhaps we can start preparing our own team!” Qin Lun smiled and said, “I just want to buy a Bronze Team badge. I still have a few servants at home, and the Black Iron Team of five can’t accommodate them …”
Just as Qin Lun was halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped and slowly raised his eyebrows. A trace of coldness appeared on his face.
“What’s the matter?” Rand’s eyes lit up and he immediately noticed the changes in his companions.
“Sorry, Rand, please do me a favor!” Qin Lun grinned, revealing a mouthful of pure white teeth. He said indifferently, “I’m afraid I can’t go back now. Help me inform Hill and the others that the favors they owe may be repaid!”
“What do you want me to do?” Rand narrowed his eyes and asked cautiously.
“Help me tell them” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he moved closer to Rand and instructed in a low voice.
“Alright, as soon as I find them, I’ll come over here!” Rand nodded his head in silence and quickly left the teleportation hall.
After seeing Rand leave, Qin Lun’s expression immediately sank and slowly turned ashen. When he mentioned Frank and the others to Rand just now, he suddenly found something strange on the death list.
There were now three servants beside him, Frank the hunchback, Basil Alexandra the dumb, and Didi the Sulu. Didi didn’t mention that Schiff and Frank were both apostles. Schiff was an independent apostle, and Frank was a true servant apostle closely related to his Apostle Soul Mark.
When he entered the Hunter’s World, the apostle number of Frank on the death list was gray, indicating that the servant apostle was not in the same space and time as his master. Now Frank’s apostle number had disappeared from the death list, not gray, but disappeared!
This showed that Frank was either dead or had taken the initiative to break off his master-servant relationship. With Frank Stan’s character, he could never betray him for no reason. There were only two conclusions left. One was that Frank was dead, and the other was that Frank was reminding him in this way.
There were many small salons in the teleportation hall for the apostles waiting for their companions. Qin Lun found a sofa on the back and sat down. He supported his chin and began to think.
“Which guild is it, Primordial Chaos, Loss, or Sky Floating?”
In order to prevent the villa from being attacked by fellows like Hill and Hansen, Qin Lun had taken some precautions in the villa after Nars World. These items didn’t require any apostle items. The magic formations of the Abyss Devils and Elves were pretty good, and it would be very cheap to purchase them using broken crystals and urban points.
Only high-level apostles could break into the villa and control or kill Frank and the others in a short period of time without making a big commotion. Qin Lun believed that there was a reason why the city patrol didn’t notice, because the duration of a trip to another world was only an hour or so for the Broken Star System.
There was no notification or information on his apostle token. Apparently, the management of the Corner of the Abyss had not discovered the incident, and the enemy might still be waiting for his return at the villa.
‘”If my guess is correct, Frank should still be alive. Since he did not hesitate to dissolve the master-servant relationship to remind me, then it means that the enemy is very strong. Frank doesn’t think I can defeat them head-on!” Qin Lun’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he smiled and muttered to himself.
“Frank, I won’t waste your reminder. No matter who those people are, I hope they are mentally prepared to face me!”
