Chapter 420 Little Devil Electrotherapy
"Huh? Are you all here? It's okay to just walk around, but be careful and don't touch the white fog outside the island, it will make you look crazy."
With a sleepy expression on his face, Mu Hua was fiddling with a thick stone spear in his hand and spoke to Taibesha and the other two who came to him.
This weapon that looks like a gun and a spear was the personal weapon of the goblin general who was just killed. Although it is made of roughly ground ore, this kind of weapon that can withstand corrosion from the abyss generally contains a lot of high-quality materials.
Dimanru metal increases the hardness and corrosion resistance of weapons, Elkan metal increases ductility, the body tissues of unknown creatures can increase various properties, the spinal cords of certain demons can improve energy conduction, Chimaera alloy can create a perfect fusion between substances, and so on.
Among them, Diluman metal is most commonly used in equipment. It is similar to the high-performance steel commonly used in human society. Whether it is carbon steel or stainless steel, its specific tendency comes from the smelting process.
High-quality Dimanru metal is common, but also precious. The main substance that Mu Hua can obtain from low-end weapons using the Wanzhi Creation is this metal.
The size of the stone spear in front of me is definitely not suitable for human beings to hold. It is thick and heavy. I thought it was a piece of mineral material, but it unexpectedly has good magic-breaking performance.
Unsure of what it was made of, Mu Hua did not disassemble it. Instead, he prepared to keep it temporarily as a weapon for the Touch of Jealousy, as he no longer had only his hands to hold weapons.
"Mu Hua, how could you dismantle the corpse!?" Facing Mu Hua, Vivian and Barbara seemed to have forgotten the purpose of their visit to Mu Hua.
"Where do you think I got those 'Abyss Fishing' items?" Mu Hua casually gave an origin for the fishing rods, and Vivian and Barbara's expressions froze.
Mu Hua's alchemy can use the corpses of monsters to make a fishing rod to catch monsters from the abyss? That question seems to be a question of whether the chicken came first or the egg, and the two women didn't know what to say for a moment.
"You are so anxious to dismantle them because you are worried that a ghost will be born? Are you the ghost that Tricia mentioned that came to the town?" Tabitha did not forget the original purpose of coming to find Mu Hua.
"Oh? You all know about it? Remember to keep it a secret. I don't want to be treated as a monster." Mu Hua said to the women without showing much surprise.
Because of his influence, as long as the soul is not destroyed, the living thing will be transformed into a ghost after death, but this transformation cannot be completed immediately, and it takes ten to dozens of minutes.
And a ghost is a ghost, no matter whether it is the ghost of a chicken, a duck, a pig, a dog, or a human demon, there is actually no difference at the beginning of birth. At most, there is a difference in strength in the later growth.
Therefore, even if the monster is fished out of the abyss and becomes a ghost, it will be a ghost with an exaggerated shape.
However, because they were transformed into ghosts, if Mu Hua tried to smelt their corpses again, not only would he not be able to smelt soul dust, but other aspects would also be affected to some extent.
Ghosts cannot be smelted when they are alive, and nothing is left when they die, so they can basically only be used as food.
Yes, that’s right, rations, not just skeletons and undead, but ghosts can be eaten on Mondays and Tuesdays. After Mu Hua obtained the jealousy talent, he seems to be able to eat it too...
Soul Devouring helps the growth of spiritual attributes, but it is only a ghost, and eating less will basically have no growth effect. And Mu Hua wants to derive high-level undead, so the demand for soul dust is relatively large for the time being.
Nowadays, after killing monsters, Mu Hua usually melts the monsters' bodies as soon as possible to prevent them from turning into ghosts. It can't be considered a waste if he eats them. It is basically a periodic need.
"It's okay for you to keep it a secret, but what about your impact on the outside world?" asked Tabitha.
The ghosts created under the influence of Mu Hua can really be called "ghosts". Imagining that ghosts are everywhere in the town and the courtyard in the future, Tabitha's eyelids can't help but twitch.
"It's none of my business. Just kill the ghosts of livestock and animals. We have night hunters anyway. Human ghosts, necromancers and witches are rare too. It's none of my business." Mu Hua said rather irresponsibly.
"Then you won't go hunting monsters? What about the ghosts of monsters in the courtyard?" Taibetha was speechless. She had no idea what to do, but she further understood the harm of ghosts and gods.
As for the ghosts of the monsters in the courtyard, Taibesha actually doesn't care too much. The monsters don't like ghosts, and many demons even treat ghosts as food.
But after confirming that Mu Hua had indeed become a jealous ghost, needless to say, Taibetha could also foresee that there would definitely be a lot of trouble around Mu Hua in the future.
"I want the monster's corpse. I can extract its essence and blood." As if she had caught Mu Hua's handle, Barbara raised her chin and said pretentiously.
"Here, go fish yourself." Mu Hua handed Barbara a fishing rod. It was impossible for him to eat for free, and he would not let Barbara destroy the corpse. "..." Barbara and the other two looked at each other in surprise after taking the fishing rod. Vivian asked for the materials to refine the corpse demon but failed, but Mu Hua promised her to keep as much blood as possible to build the blood pool.
He gave each of Taibesha and the other two a fishing rod, and told them to be careful and not to pull up any monsters that they couldn't handle. Mu Hua then ignored them.
From time to time, skeletons would drag monster corpses to Mu Hua for him to smelt them. Even though most of them were goblins, Barbara and Vivian were jealous of Mu Hua's comfort.
The three women were not in a hurry to fish, but first learned about the things on the edge of the abyss. Tina, who was wearing a flaming dress, stopped practicing and acted as a guide for Taibesha and the other two.
Tina analyzed some of the abyss monsters she had seen, and also emphasized the three girls' attention points when fishing. Mu Hua seemed to be studying the derivation of the undead these days. Tina was not sure what he was studying, but she only knew that he made himself very haggard.
When they arrived at where Ikaros was, Tabetha and the other two were speechless again.
Ikaros was seen standing in front of a pile of iron cages with an electric baton in her hand. The little demons locked in the cages were screaming as she poked them.
The little demons were shocked by the electric baton and stabbed by the iron spear. They cursed and begged for mercy. Some of them were dying, and Ikaros would also cast healing spells on them.
The originally cute and adorable angel girl turned into an unscrupulous jailer. Damn it, Tabetha actually found traces of divine power in Ikaros' healing skills. This girl seemed to have come into contact with the power of faith.
"Ikaros." Walking closer and watching Ikaros feeding pieces of meat to some little demons who had just received electric therapy whipping, Tabitha called Ikaros.
"Well, you are here? Want to try it?" Ikaros stopped feeding and handed a spear-length electric baton to Tabitha like entertaining a guest, causing the little demon in the cage in front of him to scream for mercy.
"What are you doing?" Tabetha and the other two waved their hands, rejecting Ikaros' kindness.
The little demons in the cage were just like a group of abused monkeys. There were a lot of blood stains nearby and a fishy smell, but it was not strong. It should be because these little demons were frequently washed with purification magic.
"The boss wanted to see if he could enslave them. As you saw, the effect wasn't very good." Tina explained to the others with a look of embarrassment and helplessness on her face.
"Demons are not so easy to enslave. Why don't these little demons commit suicide?" Vivian asked, shaking her head.
"Look, in each cage there are two little demons who won't be abused, uh, trained." Tina pointed to a cage and modified her wording due to a slip of the tongue.
"If a little devil dies, these two will take the place of the dead little devil. If a little devil is able to sign a slavery contract, Mu Hua agrees to accept them as servants, and they will not let other little devils commit suicide."
When Tina explained, the three girls felt that it was a little immoral, but since the target was a demon, they didn't feel too disgusted.
"But what does he want the little demons for? Even if these little demons become his followers, they are useless. They are no better than skeleton warriors. Little demons can't give people the ability of clairvoyance, right?" Barbara wondered.
"Evolution? Is he studying demonic evolution? Like Monday and Tuesday?" Tabitha muttered in speculation.
"Maybe. The boss is planning to bring back some black dogs. Don't talk about what happened here outside." Tina said casually to Tabitha and the others.
Mu Hua shared almost everything on the island with them. Taibesha and the others were in the same boat with Mu Hua. They might keep their family secrets even more strictly than Mu Hua did.
There are many people who try to train demons, and many people study the evolution of demons. Compared with Mu Hua’s other secrets, this kind of thing is insignificant.
But after all, Monday evolved from a black evil dog to a hellhound in Mu Hua's hands, and Tuesday even became a big devil. Mu Hua might have really figured out some tricks in the evolution of monsters. Since Tina had said so, Taibesha and the other two nodded in agreement.
The three of them seemed to be lost in thought when suddenly a shrill alarm sounded in the distance. Taibetha and the others looked around in confusion.
"I'll go take a look. I think we've caught a dangerous monster." As she spoke, Tina ran towards the direction where the alarm came from.
