Chapter 1059: Little Loki’s New Skills!
Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Little Loki’s New Skills!
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy was very familiar with these war puppets.
Yes, these war puppets were actually the Terracotta Warriors or the stone puppet soldiers made from the corpses of the fallen soldiers in the Yin Burial Ground!
They chose the best ones among those stone puppet soldiers, upgraded them to war puppets, and made them guard the Imperial Treasury!
Just when those war puppets almost pierced Little Loki’s body with their spears...
BZZT—! BZZT—!
Who knew Little Loki’s tiny black figure transformed into a streak of black lightning and moved around so fast, then struck all of those war puppets heavily at once!
BANG—! BANG—! BANG—! BANG—!
Those war puppets were thrown back and rolled on the ground embarrassedly!
Their bodies were charred as if they had just been struck by lightning.
When those war puppets stood up again, their movement were still affected by the paralyzing effect from Little Loki’s lightning attack and became very stiff and sluggish.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy widened her topaz blue eyes and gasped in shock and disbelief.
"That skill is... Lightning Guardian’s skill?!" Perfect Copy exclaimed.
Little Loki transformed back from its black lightning form to its kitten form, and it sat proudly at Perfect Copy’s shoulder.
"You are really amazing, Little Loki~! No wonder Lightning Guardian looks strange, and it even calls you a monster before!" Perfect Copy happily praised Little Loki and gave it a thumbs up.
Little Loki still looked smug as usual, but its furry black tail, which was swinging rapidly to the right and left, had shown how pleased it was.
Right at this moment, several war puppets still refused to give up and attacked Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy instead!
The strength of these war puppets was quite powerful. They probably had the strength equal to the Great Perfection of the Core Formation Stage.
Unfortunately for them, the current Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy could even defeat the Nascent Soul Stage masters, who had not mastered any profound law, with ease, so she clearly would not take these war puppets seriously.
But Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy still wanted to test Little Loki’s progress after it had practiced in the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], so she decided to let Little Loki fight against those war puppets alone instead.
Little Loki immediately realized the Perfect Copy’s purpose as soon as it saw that the Perfect Copy was just standing there without moving.
Little Loki snorted as if it were saying: "Heh, then look at this~!"
[Phantom Splitter] + [Black Lightning Form]—!
Little Loki’s tiny black figure instantly split into dozens of streaks of black lightning!
BOOM—! BOOM—! BOOM—! BOOM—!
Dozens of destructive black lightning bolts struck those several war puppets mercilessly until they were shattered to dust!
"Wow—!" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy clapped her hands in astonishment.
Little Loki not only learned the signature move of Lightning Guardian, but it also combined it with its own signature skill!
Surprisingly, the final result was not as simple as one plus one equals two!
The combination of [Lightning Form] and [Phantom Splitter] was definitely worth more than ten in Perfect Copy’s opinion!
"All right, you may have already sorted out those annoying puppets, but there are still many hidden traps, so you’d better not do anything rashly." Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy warned Little Loki in a stern tone.
She really did not try to scare Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy truly spotted so many hidden traps with her [Fiery Bright Eyes].
If they were not careful, those hidden traps might bring some danger to them.
Perfect Copy walked around the several hills of spirit stones and Yuan Coins while looking for a way to defuse the traps with her [Fiery Bright Eyes].
After three minutes or so, Perfect Copy pushed down the candle holder at the corner of the Imperial Treasury until she heard a ’click’ sound.
"Fiuuh~! It should be safe for now." Perfect Copy in relief as she hastily put as many spirit stones and Yuan Coins as she could into her space pouch.
Little Loki also finally made its move after it heard Perfect Copy’s words.
It opened its tiny mouth widely...
[Temporal Space]—!
Most of the high-tier spirit stones and Yuan Coins on the first floor of the Imperial Treasury were sucked into Little Loki’s mouth!
Little Loki decided to store them first in its [Temporal Space] and consume them slowly as its snack later.
Little Loki knew that if it swallowed so many high-tier spirit stones and Yuan Coins at once, it would probably fall into a deep sleep for some time to digest them.
They were still in a precarious situation after all, so Little Loki clearly did not want to fall into a deep sleep in a situation like this.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy frowned deeply and muttered in a hesitated tone: "There is still the second floor and the basement."
"The treasures stored there should be much more precious compared to the first floor, but the danger would also be much greater."
"What do you think, Little Loki? Should we proceed or retreat?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy decided to ask Little Loki.
The first floor was only used to store spirit stones and Yuan Coins, so the Minister of Finance or Imperial Treasurer could easily retrieve them for various government expenditures, such as salary payment, military expenses, rewards, and so on.
But the second floor and the basement were completely different.
They might contain the Great Wei’s precious inheritance or even the Emperor’s most valuable treasure collections!
"Mew Nyaaoow Meeoww?! (How could we retreat after going this far?!)" Little Loki disdainfully replied to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.
Perfect Copy chuckled as she patted Little Loki’s tiny furry head gently and said: "Hehe, I know you will say that~!"
Then, Perfect Copy used her [Fiery Bright Eyes] again to carefully lead Little Loki to the second floor of the Imperial Treasury.
.....
...
.
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue had finally reached the first location pointed out by Xu Yang.
She shook her head helplessly while murmuring: "Those two are truly reckless and not afraid of death."
Tang Li Xue realized that even though her perfect copy was very similar to her, but there was still a subtle difference between the two of them.
Maybe because her perfect copy knew that she could not be killed or die, so she tended to be more reckless and impulsive than the real Tang Li Xue was.
After pondering it carefully for a while, Tang Li Xue decided to just let her perfect copy and Little Loki do whatever they wanted for now.
Anyway, if they were in great danger, she could just use her [Swap] skill, store Little Loki into her System’s pet space, then return here and re-summon her perfect copy to her side in order to escape easily from any danger.
Tang Li Xue could only hope that she and her perfect copy would not bump into great danger at the same time.
"Forget it. Let’s focus on carrying out my task first." Tang Li Xue stated with a serious expression.
Just like Xu Yang had warned before, there was a lot of crimson corrosive slimes guarding this location.
"And what the heck is that huge disgusting thing?!" Tang Li Xue murmured in astonishment.
Among those crimson corrosive slimes, there was actually a giant kraken-like creature.
The size of the corrosive kraken was bigger than the previous crimson fox and crimson bird, but it was still much smaller compared to the corrupted Heavenly Golden Dragon.
Of course, it did not mean Tang Li Xue could defeat the giant corrosive kraken just because it was weaker than the corrupted Heavenly Golden Dragon.
Just watching its many huge slimy legs wiggling from afar was more than enough to make Tang Li Xue shudder in disgust and dread.
Tang Li Xue sighed and muttered: "Urgh, or maybe I should just swap with my perfect copy and let her fight that disgusting thing instead."
"Wait a minute, why should I fight against that thing head-on from close range?" Tang Li Xue said as her topaz blue eyes brightened.
Tang Li Xue jumped onto the top of one of the buildings and lay down to hide herself.
Tang Li Xue canceled her [Ethereal Form] and [Void Barrier], then the black jade bracelet on her wrist transformed into an anti-materiel rifle-shaped treasure weapon, ’Dark Light’.
Tang Li Xue carefully aimed at the giant corrosive kraken and began to infuse her various powers into the treasure weapon in her grasp.
[Starfall], [Frost Moon], [Flame of Pride], [Sun Dragon Flame]...
[Moon Shattering Blast], [Space Power], [Charged Void Bullet]...
[Sharp Edge Power], [Energy Manipulation], [Spirit Shock]...
The rune patterns inscribed on the treasure weapon were lit with mysterious, dim light as Tang Li Xue infused and compressed six kinds of powers into her ’Dark Light’!
After Tang Li Xue locked onto the giant corrosive kraken, she held her breath and pressed the trigger of her ’Dark Light’!
BOOOOOOOM—!
A dazzling silver beam containing devastating destructive power was unleashed from the muzzle of the ’Dark Light’!
The dazzling silver beam evaporated all the crimson corrosive slimes on its way!
But when it reached the giant corrosive kraken, the giant corrosive kraken could actually move fast enough and use all of its slimy, huge tentacles to block the dazzling silver beam!
The destructive silver beam shot by Tang Li Xue’s ’Dark Light’ managed to destroy most of the giant corrosive kraken’s huge tentacles, but it failed to deliver a finishing blow to disintegrate the giant corrosive kraken!
"Damn it! That monster is more tanky than I thought!" Tang Li Xue angrily complained.
