The moment Qiao An used the pseudo-paladin skill, he felt like he had turned into a monster with countless eyes and tentacles. Those tentacles extended around him under his control, covering the surrounding area silently.

around the stone house, and penetrated into every guard and hound.

He tried to extend his tentacles into the stone room, but he felt a force resisting inside the room, which would have alarmed the enemy. Instead of forcing a breakthrough, he followed his previous idea and activated the subsequent steps of the pseudo-paladin's magical skills.

I saw that all the guards and hounds penetrated by his tentacles were as sluggish and stiff as controlled puppets for an instant, and their necks were instantly twisted twice by an invisible force, like hemp ropes.

.

When Qiao An stopped activating the implant and exited that strange state, the guards who had broken their necks all fell to the ground, breathless, while the hounds did not fall because of the barbs on their tails, but they looked like

They are like strips of meat hanging around the eaves, swaying in the wind.

"Are you okay?" Penny did not look at the results of Qiao An's magical skills, but looked at Qiao An with some worry.

Although Qiao An has exited that state and stopped stimulating the implant, the negative effects are still exerting an effect on him. Not only is his face a little pale, but his expression is also extremely distorted, as if pain and pleasure appear at the same time.

Same on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Qiao An gasped softly, waving his hand to tell Penny not to worry, and said: "It's just the first time I've used this ability to deal with so many people, and it's a little over the limit. It's okay, just take a rest."

Seeing this, Penny took out her bottle of sobriety potion, which was used to calm abnormal mental states, and handed it to Qiao An. Qiao An was not polite, took the potion and drank it, and soon something abnormal happened to him.

The state gradually disappeared under the influence of the medicine, and his uncontrollable distorted expression returned to normal.

Seeing that Qiao An had returned to normal, Penny's attention shifted to the area around the stone house. She looked at the corpses on the ground and didn't feel much discomfort. She was just a little worried and said, "Will the movement you made cause any harm?"

Will it be too big?”

Qiao An also looked at the corpses, frowned, and said, "I just wanted to stun them. Do you believe it?"

Upon hearing this, Penny rolled her eyes at Joan, clearly expressing her thoughts.

Qiao An didn't explain anymore, but the expression on his face was a little serious, and he seemed to be worried.

In fact, as he said, he did want to knock these people and hounds out at first, just like he did control exercises with small animals in front of Leo. This was not difficult for him.

.

But just now, when he controlled the tentacles he had transformed with the power of the implant to penetrate the targets in front of him, an uncontrollable strong desire instantly surged out, driving him to change his mind and directly kill all the targets.

Break their necks and kill them all.

What confused him even more was that after he stopped activating the implant, the extended tentacles did not disappear directly in the air as before. Instead, they continued for a period of time, made retracting movements, and were retracting.

There is a vague shadow at the end of the tentacles that come back, and these shadows feel like the souls of the targets he killed.

Looking back on that scene now, he couldn't help but wonder if those shadows were really souls, and those souls had now been eaten by the implant. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry, and felt that he should talk to Leo as soon as possible

They met and told Leo about the matter. It seemed that Yu knew what the problem was.

However, the idea of ​​telling Leo this matter was quickly replaced by another idea in his mind. This idea was that he felt that it would be useless even if he told Leo, because the image just now was probably an illusion.

There is no problem with my body. Telling Leo now will have no consequences. It would be better to wait until the body becomes obviously unwell.

Just when Qiao An was considering whether to tell Leo what he saw just now, Penny on the side pushed him a little harder and said impatiently: "What's the matter with you? You're distracted at this time."

"What?" Qiao An was stunned for a moment, then quickly returned to normal and said.

Penny took out the mechanical repeating crossbow that Leo had built for her and said: "Let me ask you what to do next? Should you go in directly, or simply deal with the other people in the upper, and then go in, since you have already started, so why not

Be direct, so as not to encounter any accidents after entering and be attacked from the inside and outside by the people in the upper."

Qiao An looked at Penny and didn't know how to answer for a moment. He didn't expect that Penny was more murderous than him, and he instinctively rejected her proposal.

But just when he was about to speak, he had an inexplicable idea of ​​approval in his heart. He felt that Penny's suggestion was not unreasonable, because they didn't know what was going on inside. If any warning device was triggered, then they would definitely

Encountered a double attack, they may be in trouble by then.

The emergence of this idea changed the words that were already on his lips. Qiao An nodded and said: "You are right. Since you have already taken action, let's just do it bigger. Anyway, the reputation of shoe uppers here is not good."

They stink enough that killing them won't make anyone feel guilty at all."

When she heard that Qiao An agreed to her proposal, Penny looked excited. Before, because she was by Leo's side, Leo could easily solve whatever problems she encountered. She had no way to fully use the various abilities she had learned.

, there is no way to understand how much stronger she is compared to the past. Now that a task has provided her with a suitable opportunity, she naturally does not want to complete the task just like this.

In fact, there is a more important reason because she has found out some things about the upper in the past two days, which made her feel that the people in the upper are all beasts. As Qiao An said, these people are considered by her to be in the mountains.

Hunting like those wild beasts does not make her feel any guilt at all.

Penny suggested again: "We can move faster if we split up, what do you think?"

"Can you do it alone?" Qiao An asked slightly questioningly.

Penny patted her backpack very confidently, and waved the mechanical crossbow in her hand. Unlike Joan, Penny got a lot of hunting weapons and tools specially customized for her from Leo, but these were

Tools and weapons she had never had the opportunity to use before.

Qiao An looked at Penny with some envy and said nothing. Compared to Penny, he only had a knight's sword made by Leo. It wasn't that Leo didn't give him other tools, but

Excluding those special pseudo-paladin magical skills, most of his combat power is in teaching the swordsmanship of knights. A knight's sword is enough, and he can't use other tools well.

"Wait a minute." After deciding to split up, the two agreed on a round time and were about to separate, but Qiao An suddenly stopped Penny and said, "Give me a bottle of more sobering potion, and I might

Need to use it."

Penny hesitated for a moment, then took out a bottle of sobriety potion, handed it to Qiao An with some reluctance, and said, "You can borrow this."

Joan reached for the bottle and wanted to take it from Penny's hand, but Penny didn't let go, so she didn't pick it up for a while.

Seeing this situation, Qiao An knew that it would be impossible for Penny to let go without agreeing to her request, so she could only nod helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll borrow it."

After hearing Qiao An's promise, Penny let go of her hand, and without saying anything else, she quickly got into the shadows on the side and moved along the wall towards where she thought it might be the resting place for the uppers.

.

Qiao An did not leave immediately, but after putting away the sobriety potion, he walked outside the stone house, quickly dragged the corpses to a dark place, hid them, and followed him to look at the stone house and feel that the stone house

There was something inexplicable inside that attracted him, but he was not affected by this attraction. He still moved towards the place where another upper patrol team would pass by as discussed with Penny.

A silent massacre was taking place at the upper station. Because of the protection of the high wall, and the large number of people outside the high wall who were responsible for guarding the entrance and exit roads, the upper members in the station were still performing daily vigilance.

mission, but their vigilance is much lower than that of people outside the station. Even the people inside some fixed checkpoints are dozing off or doing other things without the slightest worry about being attacked.

It was under the influence of this unwary mentality that when they faced fatal attacks from the dark, they didn't even have the slightest chance to resist, and they died inexplicably one by one.

Some people were directly penetrated in the head by crossbow arrows shot from unknown places, some had their heads cut off by blades that bounced off the ground while walking on the road, and some had inexplicable things wrapped around their necks that were smaller than hair and smaller than hair.

The steel cable was even tougher than the silk thread and he was hung alive from the tree next to him.

Without exception, these people died silently, and even the corpses were completely melted into blood under the influence of some special medicines.

The blood might be very conspicuous during the day, but under the cover of night, the blood blends into the darkness. Even if someone walks by, they won't feel anything unusual.

On the other hand, the members of the upper group died in a very simple way, all of them died by breaking their necks.

Joan did not use his knight sword at all, but activated the implant from beginning to end, then used the pseudo-paladin magic to control the power of the implant to form tentacles, and then used the tentacles to control the Nasia target, using the target's own power

Break their necks.

Because he maintained the activated state of the implant for a long time, while using the power of the implant, he also discovered some phenomena that he had not discovered before. However, he did not know that this phenomenon was a fake created by Leo.

The effects caused by the Holy Knight's magical skills are the inherent effects of the power of the implant.

For example, he found that the tentacles that control the target only need to touch the target, even if it only touches the edge, without penetrating, they can control all the movements of the target. The target cannot make any resistance, even if it is a person with extraordinary power.

People cannot resist this control.

In addition, he is also very sure that those tentacles will extract something from the body of the killed person and absorb it. However, whether the thing extracted is the soul in some stories or something else, he cannot be sure for the time being. He can be sure.

The only thing is that after the implant absorbed these things, there was no mutation. The ban imposed by Leo on the implant was still taking effect, and he himself did not feel any changes in his body after absorbing these things.

It's like those tentacles have absorbed some air.

There are many people in the Shoe Gang station, more than 500 people, accounting for almost one-third of all members of the Shoe Gang.

However, when so many people faced Penny and Joan's assassination, they did not last long. In less than an hour, everyone in the shoe station was slaughtered by the two people. Those who died under Penny's hands

People were turned into blood, but the bodies of those killed by Qiao An were still there.

After the two reunited outside the stone house, Penny seemed to still have something to say and suggested: "How about we deal with those guys outside the wall as well?"

"Our mission is to investigate the situation here, not to kill people." Qiao An seemed very calm and rejected Penny's proposal, and then added: "I have finished drinking the sobering potion, and my endurance has reached its limit.

If you continue to use the power of the implant, something could go wrong."

When Petunia heard this, she originally planned to suggest that she should do it alone, but she didn't say anything anymore. Instead, she looked at the stone house and asked, "What should I do now? Just walk in directly?"

Qiao An turned his head and looked at the silent upper station around him, shrugged and said, "Do we need to worry about anything else?"

Penny rolled her eyes at the other party, took the mechanical crossbow, inserted the new arrow box into the ammunition port, then signaled to Qiao An, then carefully opened the door of the stone house and walked in cautiously.

Although they had already dealt with the people stationed at Shoe Upper and felt that they didn't need to worry about anything, they were still cautious after entering the stone house and did not move forward rashly. Instead, they carefully checked that there was no danger around them before continuing to move forward.

However, as they checked the entire stone room, confusion appeared on their faces, because they found that the stone room was empty and there was nothing. This was obviously the same as what Leo had observed.

The situation does not match.

Petunia couldn't help but feel confused and said in a deep voice: "Did they know in advance that we would come here and move everything?"

"No, Mr. Leo mentioned that Staff just learned from him that I had appeared near a special place like the Upper Station, and then we set off. In terms of time, it was impossible for Staff to notify

Move the things here." Qiao An shook his head, and then suggested: "You can try your ability. Mr. Leo said that this is the source of interference with his power, so your ability may also be affected.

This way you can know where..."

Before Qiao An could finish speaking, Penny tried to use a psychic detection technique similar to the mental network. As a result, just like Leo's mental network, she was also affected.

"It seems that the source of interference is still here, but we didn't find it." Seeing this situation, Qiao An thought of a way, so he activated his implant, wanting to see if the power of the implant could make

He discovers the secret hidden inside the stone house.
