God Soldier Atlas

boom--

Xue Liang's figure was thrown backwards by a strong impact.

The spirit worm in the cage raised its head, and a faint green light emerged from its eyes.

It bared its teeth, and gusts of cold air spewed out from its mouth, and a thin layer of ice condensed on the surrounding ground.

Crack——

A railing was broken, and the spirit worm slowly crawled out of the cage.

Xue Liang's whole body was stiff, as if he had been frozen. He wanted to shout, but he couldn't make any sound.

He watched in horror as the spirit worm crawled towards Zhou Shu.

Looking at the appearance of the spirit worm, it turned out that it wanted to sneak attack Zhou Shu!

At this moment, Zhou Shu was turning his back on the spirit worm, concentrating on casting the magic weapon, completely oblivious to everything that happened.

Xue Liang was anxious, and he struggled vigorously, but the cold air emitted by the spirit insect seemed to freeze the spirit essence in his body, and his whole body could not be controlled.

For spirit insects, it is true that the attack power is far inferior to the defense power, but it also depends on who you compare it with.

Facing the absolute strong, the attack power of this spirit worm is of course nothing, but Xue Liang is just a housekeeper, his cultivation level is not high, let alone his combat power is outstanding.

The attack power is nothing to the strong, but to Xue Liang, it is enough to be fatal.

He is not dying now, and he has already laid a solid foundation.

Help—help!

Seeing that the spirit worm was less than ten feet away from Zhou Shu, Xue Liang finally unleashed his potential and let out a loud cry.

This is the Wu Mansion, and there are guards in the mansion. The only thing Xue Liang prays for now is that the guards in the mansion can come in time when they hear the movement.

But he forgot that Zhou Shu had sent Zhan and others out before. Although Zhou Shu and his party at the head of the city had confirmed that the spirit insect outside the city was coming for this captured spirit insect, after returning, he He started casting soldiers immediately, but forgot to call Zhan and others back.

The absence of Zhan and the others meant that there were no trusted guards in the backyard, and the guards in the mansion were all on duty outside.

Xue Liang was seriously injured by the spirit insect attack. His voice was obviously not loud enough to reach the outside.

Xue Liang's voice did not attract the guards, but it did arouse the reaction of the spirit insect.

The spirit worm stopped its movements, turned its head to look at Xue Liang, and grinned with a threatening charm.

Xue Liang was taken aback for a moment, never expecting a bug to make such a humane expression.

Asshole, come at me if you have the ability!

Xue Liang didn't care too much anymore, he shouted with all his strength, he couldn't alarm the guards, he just wanted to alarm Zhou Shu now.

He couldn't move his whole body, and the only thing he could do was to make as loud a sound as possible.

Come on, you ugly bug!

Xue Liang cursed loudly, and he didn't care if the spirit worm could understand what he said, as long as it was an obscene language that he could think of, he would just blurt it out.

That spirit worm had a trace of anger in its eyes.

It turned around, pointed at Xue Liang, opened its mouth, and spewed out another cloud of cold air.

Kachacha——

Where the cloud of cold air passed, even the air seemed to be frozen, making a burst of sound.

Seeing that cloud of cold air was about to fall on Xue Liang's body, looking at it like this, Xue Liang might also be frozen into an ice sculpture.

Xue Liang's eyes were full of despair. He never expected that he would die in the hands of a bug. He hadn't become a soldier-caster yet.

grown ups!

Seeing the cloud of cold air that was getting closer and closer, Xue Liang exhausted his last strength and made the loudest sound.

boom--

Xue Liang has already closed his eyes, welcoming the arrival of death.

There was a muffled sound in his ear, but the imaginary freezing did not come.

After a few breaths, he opened his eyes.

Then he saw a thick-backed broadsword quietly floating in front of him.

There was a faint layer of hoarfrost on the sound of the blade of the knife, as if it had just been taken out of an extremely cold place.

But on the edge of the blade, there is light flowing, and every time it turns around, the hoarfrost will be reduced by a layer, and the sharp cold air seems to emanate from its blade, which is better than the cold air emitted by the spirit insect. one chip.

That's right, spirit worm!

Xue Liang was startled, and he no longer cared about looking at the long knife, but cast his eyes forward.

Then his expression froze on his face.

I saw that spirit worm was being trampled under by a person, it twisted its body angrily, but couldn't break free from the foot on its back.

The spirit worm who made himself helpless has really turned into a poor worm at this moment.

The person who stepped on the spirit insect was not Zhou Shu, but who?

It seems to be different from the legend.

Zhou Shu said to himself, Didn't it mean that the spirit worm would choose to kill itself after knowing that there is no hope of escape? Why don't you understand yourself? Could it be that you think you still have hope of escape?

Zhou Shu stepped on the spirit insect's back with one foot, and the spirit insect twisted with great force, but in terms of strength, Zhou Shu was stronger than him.

Zhou Shu is a genuine Taoist, and he has practiced eight or nine profound arts, and his physical strength far exceeds that of the same level of powerhouse.

This spirit worm is nothing more than a power worthy of the Dao Realm. Facing Zhou Shu, it has no chance to struggle at all.

My lord, you are all right.

Xue Liang said with trembling lips, his strength is too weak, so naturally he can't see anything.

In his heart, Zhou Shu is the sky, even if Zhou Shu can subdue a spirit insect, he didn't think too much.

Xue Liang, thanks to you this time. Otherwise, I might have been attacked by it.

Zhou Shu looked at Xue Liang, smiled and said.

Of course he wouldn't really be attacked by spirit insects, who is he? Although he has been concentrating on forging soldiers, he will not be successfully attacked by a spirit insect whose strength is far inferior to his.

If that was the case, all these years would have been in vain.

However, Xue Liang's performance made Zhou Shu see his loyalty, although this loyalty was to Wu Zongquan.

I'll recommend you to Jin Kui to learn the art of casting soldiers in the future. He should give me some face.

Zhou Shu said casually that he had no plans to accept apprentices, but because Xue Liang was so loyal, Zhou Shu decided to give him a chance.

Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord!

Xue Liang was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic. He is the steward of the Wu Mansion, so he already knew Zhou Shu's status as a direct disciple of the master of the Tiangong Pavilion. He never expected to have a relationship with the master of the Tiangong Pavilion, but Jin Kui, then He is also the deputy head of the Tiangong Pavilion. If he can learn from Jin Kui, that would be his dream.

Unexpectedly, happiness would come so suddenly, Xue Liang felt a little dizzy for a while.

Zhou Shu raised his hand, and the thick-backed long knife floating in front of Xue Liang had already fallen into his hand.

He gestured to the spirit insect under his feet, as if to chop.

You don't seem to be quite the same as the spirit worms I've heard, and I don't know if a single knife can cut off your head.

Zhou Shu looked down at the spirit worm, and muttered to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, before the knife in his hand dropped, suddenly a human expression appeared on the face of the spirit worm.

It seemed to be a little panicked, and there was a buzzing sound from its mouth.

Zhou Shu paused, looking at the spirit insect's expression curiously.

Can you understand me?

Zhou Shu opened the mouth tentatively.

The spirit worm let out a sharp cry, and then nodded!

All of a sudden, Zhou Shu became interested. Originally, he was going to use this spirit worm to try a knife, but unexpectedly, it could really understand human speech.

Zhou Shu tried it before on the top of the city, and the spirit insects outside the city couldn't understand his threat at all.

Could this be the reason why this spirit worm is special?

Those spirit insects outside the city did not hesitate to attack the city in advance because of it, could it be because it can understand human speech?

Didn't it mean that the IQ of spirit worms is low, they only have instinct and no consciousness?

How is this going?

From the mouths of Ge Changlong, Jin Kui and others, Zhou Shu had never heard of such spirit insects.

interesting.

Zhou Shu muttered to himself. He looked at the spirit worm and asked, Do you want to die?

The spirit worm shook its head, and there was fear in its chirping.

Its reaction made Zhou Shu more sure that it could understand human speech.

Can you really understand?

Zhou Shu said.

A touch of very human helplessness flashed in Ling Chong's eyes, is this hard to understand?

Zhou Shu pondered for a while, and said, Xue Liang, if you can still move, go and call my guard back.

Xue Liang responded, and scrambled towards the outside.

Zhou Shu raised his right foot.

If you don't want to die, you can just wait for me.

Zhou Shu said, If you want to escape, you can do whatever you want, as long as you are sure you can escape from my palm.

While speaking, the long knife in Zhou Shu's hand slashed down, just right on the tail of the spirit insect.

A deep wound suddenly appeared on the tail of the spirit worm, and its hard spirit piece couldn't block the knife in Zhou Shu's hand at all.

The spirit worm let out a scream and trembled all over. It looked at the knife in Zhou Shu's hand with some horror, and curled up into a ball.

Do not escape, do not escape, dare not escape.

The eyes of the spirit insect conveyed this meaning very humanely.

The spirituality of this spirit insect is really extraordinary.

Zhou Shu was amazed.

Looking at the blood flowing out of the wound on the tail of the spirit worm, Zhou Shu's face revealed a look of contemplation.

Zhuang Zhou's Dream Butterfly Mental Technique has effects on all living things, do you want to enter the dream spirit worm and find out its details?

Just hesitating for a moment, Zhou Shu shook his head and denied his thoughts.

Forget it, dreaming of spirit worms is definitely not a good experience.

Zhou Shu doesn't want to seek abuse by himself.

Since this spirit worm understands human nature, then interrogate it carefully, and you can still learn what you want to know.

The spirit worm curled back into the cage by itself, with no intention of running away.

It was frightened, the knife was too sharp, and its own scales couldn't stop the blade at all.

If he really escaped, wouldn't his head be gone if he cut him down?

Keeping the green hills alive, I don't have to worry about no firewood. As long as I don't die, I will be able to escape sooner or later. When the time comes, it will be these people's turn to be unlucky.

The spirit worm thought silently in his heart.

Not long after, Zhan, Mu Zhixing and others all came back.

Everyone was startled when they saw the staring spirit worm in the cage.

Mu Zhixing subconsciously took out the bell from his arms.

stop.

Zhou Shu quickly stopped Mu Zhixing from shaking the bell, Don't panic, it is different from ordinary spirit insects, it will not seek its own death.

At this time, everyone also realized that this spirit worm was clearly awake, but it hadn't terminated itself yet, which was different from what they had heard before.

Master Wu, what's the situation?

Mu Zhixing asked.

There was an outsider present, and he called Zhou Shu by his pseudonym.

you do not know?

Zhou Shu glanced at him and said with a half-smile, This spirit worm is very interesting. It can understand human speech and has a strong will to survive.

Can you understand human speech?

Mu Zhixing was stunned for a moment, he didn't know much about spirit insects, and he didn't know anything about this spirit insect.

It's not like he captured it alive at all.

Zhan and the others also showed surprise on their faces.

They also inquired about some spirit insects before, but what they inquired about was that the spirit insects had low intelligence and could not communicate with people at all.

My lord, is this a special case, or does it mean that there are individuals with spiritual intelligence among the spirit insects?

Zhan said with a solemn expression.

A spirit insect without intelligence and a spirit insect that can understand human speech are not the same concept.

If the spirit worms possess spiritual intelligence, then the horror of the insect disaster will be raised by more than one level.

You must know that the countless spirit insects originally relied on their instincts to act, which has already caused great pressure on people. Once they know how to act in accordance with the art of war, it will be a disaster for any city.

I think it should be a special case.

Zhou Shu said, The spirit insects outside attacked Tongguan City in advance to save it. This shows that it is a special existence among the spirit insects. It is very likely that some mutation happened to it, so let it have Wisdom.

I called you here because I want you to think of a way together, how to interrogate useful information from it.

Zhou Shu continued.

Everyone looked at each other, interrogating a bug?

It may be true that this spirit worm can understand human speech, but the problem is, it can't speak, how can it be interrogated?

Could it be that we have to teach it how to read and write first?

Not to mention whether it is reliable to teach a bug to read or not, even if the bug can really learn, it cannot be taught.

The people from Zhan and Gu Tianting are not young boys who have just come out of the rivers and lakes. They have experienced too many battles in their lives.

How could they not have imagined how dangerous it would be to teach a bug to read?

If a bug is educated, if it escapes, it can use the skills it has learned from humans to deal with humans. This kind of thing must not be allowed to happen.

My lord, the spirit worm can't speak, but it should have a Taoist cultivation base and strong spiritual power. Maybe we can communicate through the spirit.

Zhan murmured and said.

It doesn't work.

Zhou Shu shook his head and said, The spiritual frequency of spirit insects is completely different from that of humans. I tried to capture its thoughts, but I couldn't understand it.

The structure of this spirit insect is different from all the creatures he has seen before, including the mental fluctuations emitted by the spirit insect, which is also incomprehensible.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Shu called Zhan and the others back.

It is possible to find a way to communicate with spirit insects only by working together.

The problem now is that this spirit worm can understand what they say, but they can't understand what the spirit worm says, which is very annoying.

Since it has mutated and can understand human speech, then maybe it can also speak.

Mu Zhixing said, took a step forward, and came to the cage, Bug, can you talk? Be honest with me, or I will stew you!

The spirit worm rolled his eyes and turned his head to the side.

Its humanized action caught everyone in awe.

Everyone no longer doubted that the spirit insect Zhou Shu said could understand human speech.

If the mental power can't communicate, then you can only teach it to write and communicate through writing.

Zhan pondered, However, teaching it to write will have great hidden dangers. If it escapes, it may have the opportunity to learn the art of war—

No need to be so troublesome.

Zhou Shu shook his head and said, I have a way to get all the information it knows, but I need a trustworthy person to execute it.

me.

Mu Zhixing took the initiative to stand up and said, My lord, is there anyone more trustworthy than me?

How to do it, I'll do it! For my lord, I will go through fire and water, and I will do anything!

Mu Zhixing patted his chest and promised.

The corner of Zhou Shu's mouth twitched slightly. He didn't want to experience the life of spirit insects by himself. Since Mu Zhixing volunteered so much, it was just right.

you sure?

Zhou Shu said calmly.

certainly!

Mu Zhixing said, My lord, I brought this spirit worm back. To show that I have no other intentions, it is most appropriate for me to do it!

In that case.

Zhou Shu nodded and said, Xue Liang, go and guard outside the gate of the mansion. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter Wu's mansion.

After Xue Liang left, Zhou Shu winked at Zhan and the others again.

Zhan waited for a meeting, and they immediately acted and surrounded the entire backyard.

At this time, Zhou Shu flicked his fingers, and the blood on the spirit insect turned into a little white light, which fell on Mu Zhixing's eyebrows. Mu Zhixing's body froze, and he sat down cross-legged involuntarily.

There was a slight white light on Mu Zhixing's body, and the eyes of the spirit worm shook, looking at Mu Zhixing curiously, as if he didn't know what happened to Mu Zhixing.

Aren't these people going to interrogate themselves? What are you doing now? Why not ask?

However, its limited knowledge is not enough to understand Zhou Shu's supernatural powers.

Zhuang Zhou's Dream Butterfly mentality can not only be applied to himself, but also to others.

Let Mu Zhixing enter the dream spirit insect, Zhou Shu doesn't need to personally experience the feeling of becoming a spirit insect. The experience of an insect is nothing to experience.

After a while, the variable light on Mu Zhixing's body had disappeared.

He opened his eyes suddenly, countless scenes seemed to flash in his pupils, and then his face instantly turned pale.

The next moment, he jumped up, ran to the side and vomited.

Seeing Mu Zhixing's appearance, Zhou Shu felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn't enter the dream spirit worm himself. If you want to come to Mu Zhixing's dream experience, it's not so good.

Sure enough, my intuition was right, dreaming spirit worms is risky!

Ju Zhixing, what did you see in your dream?

Zhou Shu said.

Don't talk to me yet, let me vomit first.

Mu Zhixing waved his hands again and again, and continued to vomit non-stop.
