Chapter 704: Chapter 71 Sealing Magic Ring

"Swipe card successful, please wait."

At the end of the downward sloping corridor was a tightly sealed alloy gate. Shao Zifeng swiped his card as instructed, and blue matte strip lights lit up on the alloy gate, silently sliding open to reveal a scene straight out of a sci-fi movie.

Clack clack clack.

The powerful dome lights came on one after another, unveiling the vast underground training facility before Shao Zifeng’s eyes.

This underground training facility covered an area of about 300 square meters and was about 10 meters high. Apart from the stone floor, the entire interior wall of the training facility was made of special materials.

Looking at the spacious training ground, Shao Zifeng nodded contentedly. Although the space was a bit small for super-sized pets like Yaya and Qiuqiu, it was sufficient for the vast majority of pets. (300 sqm = 20x15m, Qiuqiu’s normal body length is about fourteen meters, and although Yaya is shorter, it is taller.)

After briefly studying the control panel, Shao Zifeng followed the instructions and chose the fully enclosed mode.

An indifferent synthetic electronic voice echoed in the training facility.

"Fully enclosed mode activated, small life-support system activated, air circulation system deactivated."

As the electronic voice ended, the doors of the training facility silently closed, and the whole space became very quiet.

After completing all this, Shao Zifeng walked to the middle of the training ground and drew ’Glory of the Karen Family’ from his waist, lifting his right hand and looking at the dark ring on his index finger.

Shao Zifeng’s hair moved without wind as his spiritual power madly surged into the ring.

Szzz.

The dome lights flickered a few times. The creepy pumpkin lampface on the ring became somewhat distorted, and wisps of black smoke began to ooze out of the ring, the dark color visibly dimming.

The amplitude of movement in Shao Zifeng’s clothes grew increasingly large, as if an invisible mad wind burst from within him.

The flickering lights continued to make a sizzling noise until the last wisp of black smoke drifted out, and all the strange phenomena abruptly stopped, with the ring returning to its dirty appearance.

Shao Zifeng’s right hand fell, his chest heaving rapidly it seemed that guy really had become stronger, as the spiritual power he had just consumed was far more than any previous pet.

However, there was no time to continue pondering other things, as Shao Zifeng cautiously surveyed his surroundings.

The underground training facility was deathly quiet, seeming as though there were no other creatures besides him.

Shao Zifeng gripped his short sword, its sharp blade flickering a cold gleam under the light, he took a deep breath, closing his eyes tightly to activate his perceptual vision.

In the void space, Shao Zifeng frowned, still unable to spot that creature around him.

After a slight pause, he gradually expanded his range of perception.

Three meters.

Five meters.

Ten meters.

Suddenly, Shao Zifeng’s vision blurred, a seductive voice emanated from deep within his heart.

"Do you have any wishes?"

...

In the middle of the underground training facility, Shao Zifeng stood frozen, one hand gripping the knife.

His complexion shifted uncertainly, at times joyful, at times perplexed, as if making some difficult decision.

"Tch."

A scornful laugh echoed through the spacious training facility, grey mist rolling and filling the entire area, the boundaries of the training ground blurred by the hazy grey fog, and the bright lights quickly dimmed.

Drip drip drip.

The sound of wood hitting the ground rose from a distant place, and amidst the endless gray fog, two dim green lights flickered.

The green flames colored the rolling fog, and a tall, slim figure with a cane held a pumpkin lamp as he walked from the depths of the fog, the eerie green light swaying and dispelling the dense fog around him.

He wore a top hat, its tilted brim obscuring half of his face, his thin lips etched into a faintly mocking smile, and an old coat with two rows of meticulously aligned buttons across the chest.

Thud!

He stopped in front of Shao Zifeng, lifting the pumpkin lamp with his dry, pale hands, as if examining the person before him closely.

The hollowed-out pumpkin lamp emitted a ghostly green fire that flickered on and off in the windless fog.

The man looked very carefully, the pumpkin lamp also moved downward with his gaze, and when the green light shone upon Shao Zifeng’s palm, the moving light suddenly stopped, and his gaze also fixed on the ring there.

"Hehe..."

A sinister laugh sounded, and the man slightly lifted his head, revealing an eye burning with green flames under the brim of his hat.

The cane in his hand turned into fog and vanished, slowly raising his dry palm; his sharp fingertips pointed at Shao Zifeng’s forehead, drawing bizarre runes.

"Have you decided, if you have, then sign the contract with me... Once the contract is signed, your body, your flesh, your life will all be mine..."

"Oh, and that includes that magical ring..."

Watching the runes taking shape under his fingertips, ’Miser’ Jack’s voice was filled with greed and fanaticism, "All mine..."

"Roar!!"

Just as the runes formed, two immense crimson gold eyes suddenly lit up behind Shao Zifeng, the authoritative roar exploding like thunder, making ’Deceiver’ Jack’s form blur.

"A dragon, it is a dragon!"

’Miser’ Jack snapped out of his trance, struggling against his fear as he tried to flee, but his eyes were involuntarily drawn to the ring on Shao Zifeng’s hand.

But it was during this moment of hesitation that the hand suddenly shot up like lightning, pressing an ancient silver ring against his forehead.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment, disbelief filling ’Miser’ Jack’s green eyes.

Shao Zifeng’s hand let go, the ancient silver ring embedded in his forehead, wisps of black fog rising around the ring.

Boom!

"Ahhh!!!!!"

The silver ring suddenly burst into white light, thick black smoke billowing out like churning steam from the center of the ring.

Enveloped by the black fog, ’Miser’ Jack’s face contorted in a shrieking roar, tumbling to the ground, he reached out his withered hand to grab the ring, but the moment he touched the ring, it burst into an even brighter light.

In miserable screams, the figure of ’Miser’ Jack rolling on the ground became blurry and then clear again, his gaunt body seemingly enduring immense pain.

The whole process lasted nearly five minutes, then the light from the ring slowly dimmed.

[Name]: Sealing Magic Ring

[Attribute]: Light

[Quality]: ★★★

[Condition]: Intact

[Effect]: Demon Sealing: Has a significant suppression effect on ghostly/mystic mutant creatures; upon contact, it can greatly weaken the target’s power, and even eradicate targets of lesser strength.

[Description]: A Sealing Magic Ring crafted by the church specifically to deal with ’Miser’ Jack; due to technical limitations, it only works upon contact with the target, but its unmistakable aura of light acts like a warning device, making it quite ineffective.
