Chapter 256 Rock Puppet Master

"Want to run?" Enzo sneered.

But just as he was about to chase, a strange feeling suddenly came from the Soul Bone Wand in his hand, as if he was longing.

On the ground, a group of spirits quietly emerged from the ashes of the black-robed captain's body.

"It's so unlucky to have provoked such a monster." The black-robed captain in the ghost state was shocked and frightened. He took advantage of Enzo's attention being attracted by Scarface and used his last trump card to separate his soul from the body that turned into ashes.

"Is he a quasi-witch?" A thought flashed through the ghost's mind.

Only quasi-witches have such strength to destroy a team of third-level apprentices by themselves. The combat power of those monsters is infinitely close to that of formal wizards. Some special existences can even defeat formal wizards.

"We must hurry up and leave here and find a body as soon as possible."

The ghost had no time to think about it and quickly floated away. He could not exist for a long time in the soul state and must find a body to attach to as soon as possible.

"Want to leave now?" At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

The dead soul was frightened and trembled all over. He didn't even have the courage to look back. He desperately floated forward, but the next moment, a suction force came from behind and sucked him back.

"No!!"

Enzo held the Soul Bone Wand, and the purple crystal on the top facing forward flashed with a strange luster, and then swallowed the screaming dead soul instantly.

Buzz!

The Soul Bone Wand swallowed a group of dead souls, and the Soul Devouring Crystal inlaid on the top flashed a lavender luster and emitted a subtle hum.

"The Soul Devouring Crystal has the characteristic of swallowing souls. It is rumored that when a Soul Devouring Crystal swallows enough souls, it will enter the metamorphosis period."

"The energy of those swallowed souls is intertwined and fused together. After the Soul Devouring Crystal passes the metamorphosis period, a new 'spirit' will be born inside."

Enzo looked at the Soul Bone Wand and the Soul Devouring Crystal on the top, his eyes flickered slightly.

"If it can really reach that level, the quality of the Soul Bone Wand will be further improved, and even relying on the power of the 'spirit', it can become a magical wizard weapon!"

According to the equipment level classification of the wizard world, items containing energy are called magical items, which are divided into three levels: low, medium, and high.

Although magical items are precious, there are no fewer of them, and they can be artificially manufactured through alchemy. Almost most wizards have the ability to refine low-level magical items.

And some wizards who are proficient in alchemy can even make intermediate or even high-level magical items.

Equipment above magical items is called magical wizard weapon.

The value of magical wizard weapon is extremely high, and most first-level wizards cannot control it. Only the elite among first-level wizards, or second-level wizards, can own a magical wizard weapon.

"Equipment at the level of magic wizard contains extremely powerful energy. Even if it is obtained by the apprentice, it is impossible to control it!"

Enzo shook his head and looked into the distance, the direction where the scarred apprentice fled, and murmured, "He should not have fled far. It's still not too late to chase him now."

...

On the barren land, the cold wind rolled up a cloud of dust. In the distance, a steel-spiked hyena was running all the way. The scarred apprentice on its back looked back with horror.

Scarface was relieved when he saw no one chasing him from behind.

"A quasi-witch! Definitely a quasi-witch!"

Scarface shouted wildly in his heart, his chest heaving violently, and tremblingly said, "The captain is the elite among the third-level apprentices, but he can't even withstand a spell from the other party. It's too scary!"

"Fortunately, he didn't chase me..."

Scarface was secretly rejoicing, but a shadow suddenly passed through the sky, and two wings like black mist spread out, like a huge black eagle.

"He's coming?!"

Scarface glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and was immediately frightened to death. He punched the steel hyena pig's neck hard and ran away desperately.

"Shadow Spear!" In mid-air, Enzo waved his hand and released a shadow spear.

Swish!

The black spear shot out and pierced through Scarface's shoulder. He immediately pounced forward, and rolled over with the steel hyena pig under him.

"Steel hyena pig, stop him!"

Scarface got up from the ground, shouted wildly, and ran forward with rolling and crawling.

At the original place, the steel hyena pig turned around, and the needle-like hairs on its skin exploded like a hedgehog.

"In order to escape, you even gave up your soul pet?"

Enzo sneered. The soul pet that signed the contract was different from the witchcraft puppet. There was a kind of spiritual connection between the two. Once one of them died, the soul of the other would also be damaged.

"You must stop him!!!"

Scarface ran desperately without looking back. He knew very well that the steel hyena pig could not stop a quasi-witch at all. When the soul pet was killed, it would be his turn next.

The only thing he could pray for was that the steel hyena pig could buy him more time!

Scarface thought so in his heart.

In front, after climbing over a low earth slope, a figure wearing a brown robe and a wooden mask on his face appeared vaguely.

"That is..."

Scarface's eyes widened, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, like a traveler who was about to die of thirst in the desert and saw an oasis.

"Master Rock Puppet Master, please save me!"

Scarface fell to the ground in a panic and said quickly, "I am from [Skull Castle] just like you. There is an apprentice of [Crow Phantom] behind me, chasing me!"

The man in a brown robe and a wooden mask on his face lowered his head slightly, his eyes full of indifference, as if he was looking at a dead person.

The Rock Puppet Master, the notorious quasi-witch-level strongman in the Skeleton Castle!

He always wears a mask on his face. No one has ever seen his appearance, and no one knows his real name. Everyone calls him by his nickname, the Rock Puppet Master!

"Fleeing in the face of a strong enemy, [Skull Castle] doesn't need useless trash!"

The Rock Puppet Master's voice was cold and indifferent.

A touch of fear rose in Scarface's heart. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but the ground under him suddenly bulged and the soil surged.

"No! Help..."

A brown rock python suddenly emerged from the mud on the ground. Its yellow vertical pupils were dull. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Scarface in one gulp amid his horrified screams.

Then, the rock python burrowed into the mud again.

At this time, a shadow passed through the sky. Enzo removed the shadow wings and landed on a huge rock.

"Another prey?"

The Rock Puppet Master raised his head and looked at Enzo on the rock. A hint of interest appeared in his eyes, and he said, "It looks like he's an interesting guy."
