Wizard: Gou Adds some Demon Hunting in the Steam Age

Chapter 161 The Soul Dissipates

Dang, Dang Dang...

Are the bells ringing for Krims?

Wayne opened his eyes and saw that the room was different from the simple layout of the attic at No. 44 Golden Avenue, "I almost forgot."

It turned out to be the sound of the simple clock he made specially last night using the leftover materials...

Wei En sighed softly, got up, put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.

"Breakfast is ready."

Sharapova stood outside the door. When she saw him coming out, she turned her head unnaturally and whispered to him with her intact profile.

"Thank you." Wei En thanked her and took her to the dining table next to the rest area.

Tina was already sitting there, holding a roll of parchment, biting her fingers and looking at it, muttering: "Rixi, death, Axi..."

Zero is sitting on her right side, with his waist straight, two mechanical arms raised forward, holding the Wizard Jerry's Codex, his head looking straight at the contents, a pair of gear eyes rotating rapidly, causing a weak whistling. Voice.

"Design drawings, materials, runes, assembly and activation... Good morning, father."

"Well," Wayne didn't care that it held the notebook upside down. He came to the upper position and sat down. He glanced around and asked, "Where's Claire?"

"She's not here." Sharapova sat opposite the Zero, just facing Wei En with her intact side face.

"Oh, let's eat first."

Did this woman run off to the Ronan early in the morning?

It seems that she should be busy with her Queen's Guard...

"Tina, Yussi."

The white-haired girl put down the parchment, looked at Wei En, and said a set of Gonzales words.

"Eat, not swallow," Wei En corrected with a gentle smile on his face: "The correct word is Sceda, and the mouth should be opened smaller."

"Tina, Scida." Tina nodded and said it again.

"The pronunciation is perfect, Tina. You have a talent for learning Gonzales."

Upon hearing this compliment, Tina's little face burst into smiles, and her two big eyes curved into crescent shapes.

When Wayne saw her smiling face, he couldn't help but recall the content of the clown's 'asking for help' before, and the decision he made last night was shaken again.

Although he doesn't want Tina to return to her previous appearance, but as the clown said, the disaster power in her body needs to be properly dealt with sooner or later.

Tina is not required to have full control in a short period of time, at least she must be able to go out freely like she did in Custer City State before.

Otherwise, it would be a disaster every time I go out... which would be quite scary.

It would be great if Tina could remain in her current state and still be able to master the source of disaster.

"Let's eat first."

"Tina, Scida."

Wayne picked up his fork, put a piece of fried golden fish fillet into his mouth, and asked the zombie lady next to him: "What progress have you made so far in learning Gonzalez language?"

"I've finished learning the vocabulary, but the combination of grammar and common sentences haven't started yet."

Sharva's pale eyes glanced at the white-haired girl who was devouring fish fillets, and said stiffly: "Tina, you learn very quickly."

"Where's the Zero?"

"It's progressing a little slowly, but it has also memorized the design drawings of [Iron Heart Fury]. It requires further practice to know how to master it."

Is that so?

Wei En looked at the three people in front of the dining table, picked up the napkin next to him and wiped the debris from the corners of his mouth, and chuckled: "The progress is pretty good, we can start the second phase."

"Tina, second stage!" The white-haired girl put down the fish fillet.

"Father, can I use your studio?" Zero also jumped up from the stool, the mechanical gears turning wildly.

Only Sharapova folded her hands, her pale hand covering the other mechanical arm, turning slightly to look at Wei En.

"Starting from this afternoon, in addition to learning Gonzalez language, combat classes will be added. Shava will be responsible for teaching Zero Type, and Tina... will be in charge of me."

"In addition, Type Zero, I will prepare an independent studio for you. At night, you can refer to the contents in the manual and try to make a mechanical puppet."

"A separate studio that belongs to me?" The rotation speed of the gears at Zero's eyes can no longer be described as fast, and traces of fire can already be seen.

"That's right, you can control all the mechanical puppets you make. I will also make some to coordinate with you later."

Wei En has not forgotten that mechanical beings are very good at controlling mechanical puppets, and doing so can be considered as playing to his strengths.

However, we have to come up with a transformation plan later.

With Zero's current captain-level combat capability, if he doesn't grow enough, the help to him in the future may be limited.

"Tina, fight!" When the white-haired girl heard that she could fight against Wei En, she clenched her little fists and gestured, "Tina, you're awesome."

"Of course, you are the most powerful among us." Wayne stretched out his hand to ruffle her hair, "So, just add some experience."

This is the method he came up with last night - to speed up everyone's progress without leaving any trace, and take the opportunity to fight Tina to see if he can let her learn to use the power of disaster in her current state.

"Tina, I know."

"What about me?" Miss Zombie turned her head and looked directly at Wei En with her mechanical eyes.

"you……"

"Reform!"

Wei En was startled, looked at the mechanical eyes and the mechanical arm on her face, thought for a while and said, "I haven't had time to ask for your advice. Are you still willing to accept mechanical transformation?"

"I am willing. I hope I can help you. I don't want to be like last time."

Help me?

Wei En looked at her deeply, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said, "You have already helped me a lot... If you believe me, just wait. I still need to prepare for a while."

"I can wait!"

"Well, there is another way to enhance your strength, and I will give it to you when the time comes."

That is to transform into an undead creature with the identity of 'Deadpool' and gain innate abilities.

However, the level of undead transformation is not high yet, and the chance of success in obtaining the talent is too low. He will have to wait for a while.

Moreover, Wei En also needs to find out more knowledge about mechanical transformation and undead transformation.

He had not redeemed relevant knowledge from the Ghost School before, so he decided to conduct research on his own.

"I believe in you, Wayne!" Sharapova nodded heavily, her neck almost folding at right angles to her flat chest, "If possible... I hope to devour more undead creatures."

"Devouring the undead? Okay, I will provide it to you." Wei En did not refuse her request.

He knew that it was normal for undead creatures to devour each other and it was also their main means of increasing their strength, but it was not very efficient.

However, there is an item on the exchange list of the Ghost School to exchange for undead creatures, which is nothing more than spending a few more gold pounds.

The exchange price for an undead creature like Sharapova, whose overall strength could reach the captain level, was twenty gold pounds, while the price for a minister-level creature was ten times higher.

As for the director level, Wei En simply ignored it. Those prices, which were often a few thousand gold pounds, really irritated his fragile eyes.

In addition, there is Type Zero's studio and the cost of materials for making mechanical puppets - Type Zero does not like him first master the full-level runes before making puppets.

I'm afraid that the chance of failure during the Type Zero production process will not be low, and it will cost a lot of money.

Adding these bits and pieces together, for Wei En, who now holds a huge sum of 10,000 gold pounds...

Well, he is still poor and needs to make more money!

After breakfast, Wei En left the theater space and returned to the Ronan.

Um?

There was a faint sound of chanting praises coming from the direction of the deck.

"...on the blue sea of ​​Cordo, the brave sailor has fallen asleep, his soul soars like a seabird, and his name lives on in the wind."

"His ship sailed on the Cordo Sea, his eyes were firm and sincere, his courage was unparalleled, and his stories were spread in the sea breeze..."

Wei En's mental perception covered him, he frowned slightly, pushed the door open and walked out of the cabin.

"...We sent him on his last journey. His courage, his tenacity, and his love will remain in our hearts forever, and his soul will fly on the sea."

Dozens of pirates were seen gathered in twos and threes on the deck, facing the ship's bow made of mechanical gears, lowering their heads and chanting in unison.

On the other side was Claire, and dozens of guards behind her who were wearing uniform leather armor and lined up neatly, singing along.

And among them, there were five men with ferocious faces lying, their eyes wide open and almost in a standard round shape, with two bloodstains on the corners of their eyes, without any scars on their bodies...

Three men and two women?

Wei En noticed the appearance of these people and thought to himself, are even the women who just got on the boat dead?

As the singing stopped, Ronan shouted in a low voice: "Send them a ride!"

After saying this, a dozen strong pirates walked out and carried the corpses to the side of the ship, as if they were going to throw them into the sea.

"Wait!" Wei En said.

"captain?"

Ronan was stunned and said carefully: "Captain, they are all people who were unfortunately pulled into a dream last night and died due to being disturbed..."

The other pirates were also puzzled.

According to the rules of the Cordo Sea, the sailors who died unfortunately will complete the funeral on the ship to comfort their souls.

"We'll talk about it later."

"What's wrong? Captain Marco~" Claire's face was still full of excitement about the ceremony just now, and she was quite interested in it.

The newly refreshed women behind her saw the red-haired captain for the first time, and they did not expect him to be such a young and handsome man. They all had shyness on their faces, obviously remembering some maritime rules.

Wei En knew that they had doubts, but he did not explain too much. Instead, he waved for them to put the corpses down, and then took out two bottles of spiritual evocation potion and poured them into the mouths of two of the corpses.

"Calling spirits? Do you want to awaken their souls?" Claire raised her eyebrows, vaguely understanding something.

Wayne nodded, "I just wanted to see if I could get some information from them."

"It's useless, Captain..." Ronan hesitated and said, "Some people have tried this before, but they didn't find anything."

"not found?"

"No, it's just that these people's souls can't be condensed, that's right, look!"

Without him needing to remind him, Wei En had already noticed that the gray mist was rising on the two corpses that had just drank the soul-calling potion, and little bits of fluorescence were flying out from their bodies, but they did not condense together, as if their souls had long since dissipated. generally.

No soul anymore?

Wayne used spiritual perception to surround the body.

No hair...

Um?

there's noise!

"...Ciel...Risi..."

Several hoarse and illusory voices came out from the gray mist, like the last words conveyed by the light fragments of souls, or like the traces left by others on these souls...

Killing, death?

González?

Wei En frowned slightly, thought for a moment and then ordered: "Second officer, put them all in the box, I want to study them."

"Box? Okay," Ronan didn't ask any more questions and motioned for several pirates to return to the cabin. At the same time, he shouted to the surroundings: "Everyone else dispersed and returned to their posts!"

As the pirates dispersed, Claire came over and looked at the corpses on the deck with Wayne, wondering: "Did you find anything? Is it related to the killing dream?"

"Not sure yet." Wei En shook his head and said nothing more, thinking about that matter in his heart.

Five minutes had passed since he returned to the Ronan, and no message about the containment of murderous intent had been received on the panel.

The fact is as he guessed last night, those places where killing intent is contained will only work at night.

But what he didn't expect was that the souls of people who couldn't leave that dream safely would actually disappear.

Or... is the origin of these people dissipated?

No, it means the source dissipates - the panel does not improve him, there is source power that can be devoured using the Devouring Soul Spell!

"Then you study it, I'm going to take them for training."

Claire glanced at the guards behind her who were both voluptuous and beautiful, rolled her eyes, and continued: "Captain, do you want to choose two guards? They are both beautiful~"

"Huh, huh? Guard?" Wei En was stunned for a moment, then glared at her, "Go and do your business!"

Claire curled her lips and showed a charming smile to the women in the guard who quietly puffed out their chests, "I'm sorry, the captain doesn't like you, so you should restrain your bells."

"Pfft!"

Hearing her words, the guards almost couldn't help laughing, but when they saw Wei En looking over, they quickly put on a serious expression.

"Hmph~ Go back to training so that your captain doesn't have to focus on you!" Claire also noticed Wei En's eyes and snorted with some displeasure.

Wayne: "..."

What and what?

How had he ever put his thoughts on these women?

[You are scanned by the mental perception of the deep-sea creature-blue marlin. Evaluation: Oh~it tastes good... Evaluation: Survival points +2. 】

【……】

[You are targeted by the killing intent of the deep-sea creature - the blue marlin... Evaluation: Survival points +3. 】

At this moment, some information prompts flashed on the panel, interrupting Wei En's thoughts.

Um?

Could these damn deep-sea creatures smell the smell of corpses?

PS: There will be an update in the evening. Oops, I forgot to write the title. I have to ask the editor to change it after the holiday.
