Chapter 213: Chapter 143: Terrifying City God Temple_2
Translator: 549690339
[You head towards the City God Temple, eager to explore this most prosperous place of worship in Tianyun City.]
[A minute later, you arrive at the City God Temple.]
[You see that the City God Temple is not a standalone structure, but consists of two side halls and a main hall surrounded by a large courtyard.]
[The three gilded characters “City God Temple” on the courtyard plaque are eye-catching.]
[The temple doors are closed but not locked, and you can faintly see the glow of firelight seeping through the cracks.]
[You hold your breath and cautiously approach the courtyard doors, peering through the cracks.]
[You see several figures standing around a ritual incense burner in the courtyard, appearing to worship.]
[However, to your horror, those figures are not humans nor demons, but paper men made of white paper!]
[The paper men detect your spying, their rigid heads twisting to look at you.]
[You’re dead!]
“Paper men?”
“Ghosts?”
A thought emerges in Su Nan’s mind, shaking his spirit.
He has been in the game for nearly a month, and he has already gained a preliminary understanding of this world.
This world has demons and devils, but he has never heard of ghosts!
Last time he suspected he encountered a ghost was at the Turtle King Lake, but it turned out to be just a resentful demon.
It was somewhat similar but not a ghost.
“No, this time it shouldn’t be a ghost either, most likely a kind of demon I’ve never heard of.”
After the initial shock, he becomes even more interested.
All he has encountered other than the invisible resentful demon last time were tangible beings.
This is the first time he has encountered something so bizarre.
“I have plenty of foreknowledge times left, let’s see what peculiar thing you are.”
He glances at his remaining foreknowledge times.
After achieving the Great Perfection of the Mang Cang Serpent Bloodline, his foreknowledge times increased by three more, reaching 36 times.
He has used 9 times today, leaving 27 times left.
Even if he used 20 times to predict, he believes he could definitely discover something to some degree.
The cooldown of foreknowledge ends, and he immediately predicts again.
[One minute later, you come to the gate of the City God Temple. You know that at this moment, several bizarre paper men are worshipping inside the courtyard.]
[You peer through the crack in the gate and observe the complete appearance of one of the paper men.]
[You react swiftly, using Boneshifting to try and transform into the paper man’s shape.]
[You fail; Boneshifting cannot turn you into the bloodless Paper Puppet Demon.]
[You’ve been discovered.]
[You’re dead.]
“Paper Puppet Demon!”
At the end of the second prediction, Su Nan’s eyes brighten up.
Although the prediction remains simple, he has learned the name of the Paper Puppet Demon.
Continuing with the prediction!
[Arriving at the City God Temple, you know that several Paper Puppet Demons inside are worshipping.]
[Paper Puppet Demons possess bizarre abilities, able to detect your gaze. Instead of peering through the crack, you choose to take action boldly.]
[You launch a Divine Soul Attack on the Paper Puppet Demons, but unfortunately, their Power of Divine Soul is much stronger than yours.]
[You’re dead!]
“Their Power of Divine Soul is much stronger than mine? Seems I was killed by their Power of Divine Soul!”
Realizing this, Su Nan also understands that only the Power of Divine Soul could silently kill him.
“Since the Divine Soul doesn’t work, let’s try another method.”
“Since they’re made of paper, they should be afraid of fire.”
Su Nan continues to experiment.
He wants to see just how peculiar these Paper Puppet Demons are.
[You use the Fire Serpent to attack the Paper Puppet Demons, sensing the heat, the Paper Puppet Demons can’t help but step back.]
[Unfortunately, your Flame is too weak, causing the Paper Puppet Demons to fear but not threatening them much.]
[You’re dead]
“As expected, fire is effective!”
“Finally, a method to deal with the Paper Puppet Demons has been found!”
Su Nan’s eyes light up, though the fire wasn’t tangibly effective, there is hope.
He continues to experiment.
[You use Lightning Power. Electric Light bursts on the Paper Puppet Demon, but it remains unscathed.]
