Chapter 1600: Chapter 940: I Gave You a Chance and You Blew It (Part 3)
Those are sharp and long, like barbed teeth.
In shock, Yang Xiao manipulated the Mirror Ghost to activate the ability of this thing, and in the next second, the Mirror Ghost suddenly opened its mouth wide, the corners of its mouth inexplicably tearing open, revealing a set of yellowish, shark-like sharp barbs.
These barbs interlocked with each other, numbering in the dozens, each about the length of a midfinger. If bitten, the injury caused would be almost no different from a shark bite, perhaps even more severe.
Within a few breaths, Yang Xiao seemed to understand. While he was in the Secret Realm, he had checked the injuries on the Mirror Ghost’s body, and at that time, he found a very strange wound on the Mirror Ghost’s right arm.
That wound looked like something had taken a bite, that bite snapping the bone, tearing away a large chunk of flesh along with the bone.
There were not just one such wound; the Mirror Ghost’s right hand was almost bitten off, and even now has not fully recovered. freewebnσvel.cøm
Considering the Mirror Ghost’s opponent in battle was the Japanese Apostle Stone Beast, Yang Xiao guessed that this thing must be a magic artifact from the Stone Beast.
Now Yang Xiao roughly figured it out. Because the Soul-Capturing Mirror lost control, the Mirror Ghost nailed by the wooden wedge lost control too, and it also seized the magic artifact from the fallen Stone Beast.
If Yang Xiao had known earlier that the Mirror Ghost had taken something it shouldn’t, he would have certainly stopped it. After all, taking something you shouldn’t in the Secret Realm is very dangerous; if this thing loses control halfway, it would attract the Source Ghost.
This is different from when he used the Ghost Fog Bottle to lure the Source Ghost. He dared to activate the Ghost Fog Bottle because he knew how to avoid the Puppet’s pursuit method inside it and knew that closing the Ghost Fog Bottle could end everything.
But this thing is different. Yang Xiao knows nothing about it, is unclear what kind of supernatural event it might trigger, and most importantly, he doesn’t know how to handle this supernatural event.
Handling a supernatural event is not easy, it requires trial and error, and while facing an attack from the Source Ghost, they obviously didn’t have the chance or time.
Back then, their team was at the end of their tether. If something unexpected happened, there would inevitably be casualties, and no one was willing to take this risk. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
But then again, since they’ve taken it, there’s naturally no point in returning it, and Yang Xiao also feels that although this thing isn’t very elegant, it’s very practical.
After all, during combat, nobody would expect to suddenly get bitten.
Yang Xiao considers himself well-seen, but indeed he has never seen any Envoy with similar abilities; if used well, they could have miraculous effects in combat.
More critically, this thing was obtained by the Mirror Ghost itself, without going through him, and without going through the good sister, which also opened new ideas for Yang Xiao.
If in the future he can manipulate the Mirror Ghost under relatively safe conditions, granting it appropriate freedom during combat, allowing it to "lose control" for a short time, wouldn’t that mean the Mirror Ghost could freely "pick up" the opponent’s magic artifact for its own use?
This might be impossible for others, but for Yang Xiao, it’s not difficult. He has the wooden wedge and also a Ghost Bamboo Stick that can manipulate the "mutation" of ownerless magic artifacts.
Through observation, Yang Xiao also recognized the shortcomings of the Mirror Ghost in combat. Its defense is decent, but its attack power is somewhat lacking; now it badly needs a powerful attack-type magic artifact.
It’s best to have something longer, like standard swords, spears, clubs, and sticks; after all, the longer, the better, and they offer advantages in combat.
Thinking of this, Yang Xiao felt even more discontented and inwardly cursed the Mirror Ghost as an unrecognizing fellow. If taking something, it should have taken the Fisherman’s magic artifact. He envied that oar; if the Mirror Ghost had taken that oar, their father-son combat power would increase significantly.
The more Yang Xiao thought, the more annoyed he became, raising his hand to pull up the Mirror Ghost already resting on the bed, shook its head forcefully, "Still have the face to sleep?! You wastrel, given the chance, and you are no good, given the chance, and you are no good..."
