Chapter 468: Chapter 349: The Strange Distribution Room

The effects of the Soul Raiding Skill were quite evident; the Wandering Spirit hardly put up any struggle before it was completely absorbed by the move, and this time, even the corpse vanished without a trace, utterly disappearing.

Zhang Xiaoman walked over, placed his hand near where the monster had died, and then activated the ability of the Eye of the Starry Sky. Indeed, amid a flurry of white energy fluctuations, he heard the System’s prompt:

"Ding, successful absorption of Wandering Spirit essence, points increased by 1."

"1 point..."

He recalled the last time he absorbed a Wandering Spirit at Lin Sisi’s house; although it wasn’t much, it still yielded 3 points. Clearly, the lower amount of points this time was due to the disappearance of the monster’s corpse, allowing that "essence" to dissipate.

Regarding this "essence," Zhang Xiaoman had some speculations as well. It could be the force of existence from another Fusion World, in other words, the "origin."

When creatures from another world die, part of their origin essence within their bodies starts to disperse. Because he absorbed it promptly before, he was able to gain points.

But now, with the collapse of the monster’s corpse causing the "container" holding the essence to disappear, those essences quickly scattered, perhaps absorbed by this world, or maybe they simply vanished.

Of course, these were just Zhang Xiaoman’s guesses. Whether the truth of the matter was as he surmised would require further experimentation.

Having absorbed the Wandering Spirit in front of the two of them, Zhang Xiaoman’s expression remained impassive. After all, this creature was far too weak. Initially, his Soul Absorption Technique could instantly take out such an entity, let alone now with his Soul Raiding Skill, which had been doubled in effectiveness by the Spirit Star Ring.

Even Aaron seemed calm at the moment, for he had already witnessed the strength of this great man. Back in Milk Town, he had even personally killed one.

Though he was curious about the strange green creature, Aaron made an effort to appear composed in front of the Star Lord and to maintain face in front of his friend.

However, someone nearby couldn’t remain calm.

At the moment, Beelu had his mouth wide open, forming an O shape. After seeing Zhang Xiaoman kill the monster with a wave of his hand, he was stunned for quite some time before coming to his senses.

"Oh my god! Oh my god! What just happened! Is this magic? My goodness, there’s actually magic in this world! Are you a Mage? Or a Priest? What’s that move called? It’s so cool!"

Clearly, Beelu was a chatterbox. Zhang Xiaoman paid him no heed and made his way straight to the other end of the corridor.

Seeing this, Aaron shrugged helplessly at his friend and also followed along.

By the time Beelu snapped back to reality, the other two had already walked away. He looked around and then, with a determined bite of his teeth, chased after them.

"Hey, man, don’t walk so fast. Tell me, what was that just now? Is that guy a Mage? That terrifying ghost was taken down in a flash; how did he do it? Right, why do you also seem so calm, did you know about this stuff a long time ago..."

Beelu caught up to Aaron and rapidly fired away all the questions he had in mind.

"I must be going crazy, man. Tell me, do you know any magic? I remember you once said you were a Demon Hunter, could it all have been true? Why don’t you teach me a thing or two? I bet my Talent is going to be incredibly high, just teach me or have that guy teach me, I’ll give you all my savings..."

As the party continued on their way, Beelu tagged along behind Aaron, talking incessantly, until the latter couldn’t stand it anymore and stopped in his tracks, issuing a threat:

"Enough! Beelu! Shut up this instant, or I swear I’ll turn you into a sheep!"

With that reprimand from Aaron, Beelu immediately quieted down, looking hurt and muttering something under his breath.

Zhang Xiaoman also stopped walking and looked back at him.

"Leave this place, it’s very dangerous."

Beelu only felt a shiver run through his body, and a sudden sense of panic rose in his heart. His footsteps involuntarily halted.

By this time, the two of them had already arrived at their destination. After Aaron opened the door, Zhang Xiaoman followed him inside.

Aaron’s home wasn’t big, and like the overall style of the apartment building, it appeared old, but to Zhang Xiaoman’s surprise, it was unexpectedly clean, indicating that the guy had fairly good living habits.

"I’m sorry, I haven’t been home for a long time, and I can’t provide any hospitality..."

Aaron said somewhat apologetically, "By the way, Beelu’s house is right next door. How about I go there and warm up a cup of coffee for you?"

Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand and said, "No need, I’m here just to look for something. Whether I find it or not, I won’t stay long."

As he said this, he looked through each room but didn’t find what he was looking for.

"Um... Regarding this pattern I have, have you seen it before?"

Zhang Xiaoman felt that he might not find it after all, but still unwilling to give up, he asked Aaron again.

"I’m sorry, sir, I haven’t seen it in my house..."

At this moment, Beelu, who had been hesitating at the door, listening to the conversation between the two men, especially Zhang Xiaoman’s voice filled with magic, which seemed to reach directly into the spirit, couldn’t help but walk in.

"Uh, excuse me, Mr. Mage, are you looking for a very special place? I think I know where it is."

Zhang Xiaoman glanced at him with some surprise.

"Oh? Let’s hear it."

Seeing that the other party didn’t blame him, Beelu’s spirits immediately lifted, and he shared what he knew.

"Mr. Mage, although I’m not sure what you’re looking for, if there is any special place in this building, it can only be one place, and that’s the underground electricity room!"

"The electricity room? What about it?"

Aaron looked puzzled.

Beelu nodded and said, "Man, you haven’t been home lately and didn’t hear about it. There have been rumors of ghosts in the building recently. At first, I didn’t believe them until I met that... thing, just now..."

He paused here, glancing anxiously around before continuing:

"They say, ah, that the ghost came from the underground second-floor transformer room. At night, there are terrifying sounds that come from there, just like those made by that monster earlier, only more horrifying."

"I even heard from Jack on the first floor that he saw the graffiti in the corridor come to life. Their eyes all moved following him, and even their positions changed mysteriously. If he hadn’t run fast enough, he might have been... gone."
