Mu Hua miscalculated. None of his men who stayed on the Island of Abyss were in danger of the Basanimu demon, at least none of his skeleton undead were.
The contractor brought a group of skeleton undead to encircle and eliminate the wild undead on the island, and also upgraded their levels by the way.
On the edge of the abyss, two black-armored skeleton generals who had taken over from the contractor to supervise fishing were squatting near several groups of Basanimu demons, watching the tangled and screaming black smoke with indifference but seemingly with interest.
"Master! Save me~!" Amid the clanking of chains, Mu Hua appeared and a cry for help was heard in the black smoke.
“…”Mu Hua was a little confused.
For a demon face blindness patient, it is almost impossible to identify the Basanimu demon, especially when several Basanimu demons are entangled together.
Mu Hua heard the cry for help, and could also sense from the souls the individuals who had become his followers, but when several Basanimus were mixed together, they looked like a large cloud of black smoke in Mu Hua's eyes. Not to mention their appearance, even the number of individuals was something Mu Hua could not distinguish for a moment.
"What are you looking at? Why don't you separate them?" When they got closer, Mu Hua caught the two black-armored skeleton generals and kicked them each.
These two black-armored skeleton generals were recently created by Mu Hua. Because several Basanimu demons had never been inclined to accept enslavement, Mu Hua actually forgot to instruct them to guard and care for them.
As skeleton undead, it was good enough for them not to stab the fighting between living beings. If Mu Hua hadn't ordered them, they would have wanted to enjoy the coming of death.
The black-armored skeleton generals were kicked over by Mu Hua. Although they were also Mu Hua's followers, they were born not long ago and had rigid and ruthless personalities. After receiving Mu Hua's order, they got up and stepped forward to grab the black smoke.
Under the tearing of the black-armored skeleton general, accompanied by the clanking sound of the Hell Demon's chains, a large cloud of black smoke was divided into several parts. Only then was Mu Hua able to identify the location of his new dependent through perception.
"What's going on?" Walking closer to a stream of black smoke that was making a strange humming sound, Mu Hua untied the Hell Demon chains that were wrapped around it.
"These bastards want to kill me, master. They see that I have become your subordinate and want to kill me." Freed from the chains, Black Smoke floated around Mu Hua, shouting to Mu Hua with a hint of panic mixed in with anger.
Through the black smoke's explanation, Mu Hua figured out why they were entangled together.
Trapped on the Abyss Island, they sought refuge with Mu Hua and were captured. After a period of being trapped, especially after witnessing Tuesday evolve into a big demon, several Basanimu demons basically had the idea of accepting Mu Hua's enslavement.
However, ideas are just ideas. When it comes to putting them into practice, they are unable to sign a slavery contract.
And when one of the Basanimu demons finally showed enough "awareness" and completed the signing of the contract, the other Basanimu demons were probably worried about the comparison and worried that they would be dealt with by Mu Hua.
But he wanted to kill the Basanimu demon while Mu Hua was away. Maybe he would be able to sign the contract in a few days?
The demons were cunning and cruel, and selfishness had long been engraved in their bones. Mu Hua was not surprised by the behavior of several Basanimu demons. He was just surprised that they were not at peace even when tied up with the hell demon chains.
"From now on you will be called Wednesday. What about these others? Do you want to try to tame them?" After finding out the reason, Mu Hua first gave Wednesday a few philosopher's stones as a reward for joining the gang.
Through Monday and Tuesday, Mu Hua had a clear understanding of the possessiveness of demons. Even if they were slaves to their masters, they did not like their masters to have their own kind under them. Compared with their colleagues, they preferred subordinates under their control.
Not wanting to cause any trouble, and also too lazy to be bothered by them in the future, after having Wednesday, Mu Hua intended to bring the other Basanimus under Wednesday's command.
Of course, for the time being, accepting slavery is the prerequisite for Mu Hua to bring the demons under his command. Whether it is him or his followers, Mu Hua doesn’t care much about whose slavery they are willing to accept.
"Surrender, we are willing to surrender! Studer, we are willing to accept your rule!" Along with Mu Hua's questioning, several other groups of black smoke shouted in panic.
"Master, kill these bastards, I want these bastards to die, I want to eat these bastards!" Wednesday screamed. Facing several of his kind who had just wanted to kill him, it was obvious that Wednesday's heart was filled with a murderous rage for revenge.
"Eat them? It's up to you. Can you get magic cores from them?" Mu Hua did not interfere with Wednesday's revenge. Given the nature of the devil, even if he ordered Wednesday to take them now, Wednesday would probably find a way to kill them later. In order to avoid unnecessary accidents, let it eat if it wants.
Mu Hua had killed Basanimu before, but these guys had nothing left after they died, and he was curious about how these 'black smoke' were eaten.
After getting Mu Hua's approval, Wednesday, like a column of smoke, pounced on other black smoke with a strange smile. Without the restraint of the Hell Demon Chains, when Wednesday was entangled with those Basanimu again, the screams of those Basanimu were heard on the edge of the abyss.
Monday emerged from Mu Hua's shadow, and Tuesday also emerged behind Mu Hua. The two of them admired the erosion between Basani and Mu. There was still a ball of black smoke rolling in Mu Hua's eyes, and he couldn't tell what was going on.
As for these troublesome demons, Mu Hua no longer emphasizes the caution of "not messing with his own people", but changes the code of conduct to not intentionally harming the interests of the master.
Anyone who dares to mess around again will be killed, no discussion.
There were constant shrill screams. Perhaps because of the engulfment, the tangled black smoke gradually shrank until only the smoke column of Wednesday's body remained.
What's more, a fourth-level magic core and two fifth-level magic cores really came out of the smoke column, which also meant that the other Basanimu were completely finished.
The three magic cores were melted into two 'Soul Parasitism Skill Stones' and one 'Illusion Skill Stone' that Mu Hua was looking forward to. However, Mu Hua was disappointed to find that he could not use any of these skill stones.
Soul parasitism is an ability that only spirits can use. Unlike ghosts or faceless men's possession, it can only allow spirits to possess living creatures.
Soul parasitism itself will not cause harm to the organism, and to a certain extent will not affect the character of the parasite itself.
Just like humans whose bodies are occupied by the Basanimu demon, they are more like suffering from multiple personalities. Their original consciousness falls into a deep sleep, and Basanimu controls the body of the parasite on behalf of the original consciousness.
Because the eyeballs of humans possessed by the Basanimu demon will turn into pure-colored demon pupils, this ability is more concealed when placed on a demon.
It is highly concealed, can bring out the full strength of the host, can also exert its own abilities, and will not subjectively affect the health of the host. These are probably the advantages of soul parasitism.
Its disadvantage is that it is less safe than ghost possession. If it encounters danger, the parasitic spirit must escape from the body of the parasite before the parasite dies, otherwise the parasite will also die.
At the same time, because it only makes the consciousness of the host fall asleep, this ability requires a relatively high soul strength of the host. If the soul of the host cannot be suppressed, the host may be retaliated and devoured by the host.
An ability with both advantages and disadvantages. As for these skill stones? There is no point in saying more. Anyway, this ability is only for spirits, and Mu Hua can't krypton.
And 'Illusion Creation' is also a unique ability of Basanimu. Shi Muhua is not absolutely unable to acquire this skill, but it requires the caster to have the life characteristics of 'Shapeshifter'.
That is to say, demons like Basanimu, Incubus, and Nightmare can all learn it, but unless humans obtain the life characteristics of the Changelings, they basically have no chance of having this ability.
Mu Hua estimated that it was unlikely that there was a magical secret technique that could directly create a shapeshifting species, but by performing the Keratin Skin Technique on the Abyss Island, one should be able to obtain the life characteristics of the corresponding species.
I could give it a try if I could get the corpse of a nightmare or a succubus.
As for using the Basanimu demon? There's something wrong with the life form of this thing. There's not even a corpse after death, and there's no hope for keratinized skin.
After dealing with the problem on Wednesday, Mu Hua did not stay on the Abyss Island for long.
He entered the Abyss Island from the grove outside the Fortress City Administrative Mansion. He needed to go back and wait until the banquet was over. He could then return to his own land and do other things. (End of this chapter)
