Chapter 217 The Octopus Rope
Saul looked at the Angela with this appearance, and then associated it with the poor and cute Angela just now, his hunger was suddenly not so strong.
It seemed that seeing real people he knew brought his thoughts back to normal slightly.
But Saul's newly evolved tentacles were still around Angela, the tip of his tongue sticking out and nearly licking the girl's face several times.
At that moment Angela suddenly turned around and walked deeper into the lab, and Saul hastily withdrew his tentacles back a bit so as not to actually touch Angela and make the latter notice something.
Angela, who was unaware of the strange aura around her, quickly walked towards the cabinet at the back of the lab.
As soon as the door was opened, there were many shouts of "Help me!
This cabinet was the one that housed the puppet dolls used to test their mental powers.
At the moment, the dolls were still standing neatly inside, but as the sound of "Help me" grew louder, the bodies of the puppets were also trembling gently.
Along with the trembling, the dolls were vaguely moving outward.
At that moment, Angela's left hand suddenly raised, waved at the puppets in the cabinet, and then quickly picked one out of it.
As one puppet left the cabinet, however, those remaining looked even more agitated.
They trembled even more, as if they were about to fall out from inside the cabinet at any moment.
Thor was also attracted by the movement of Angela and the puppets, and his tentacles lifted up, his numerous mouths aimed at the puppets inside the cabinet.
"These little things look pretty tasty too." Saul felt hungry again.
Thus, Angela, who was frowning and trying to close the cabinet door behind her, suddenly realized that all the puppets' quieted down and stopped begging for help and trembling.
She looked to her left hand, "If you could quiet them, why didn't you do it sooner?"
After a moment's pause, she frowned in surprise, "What? You didn't do it?"
Angela slammed the cupboard door shut and immediately turned to look around with a serious expression and a petulant voice, "Come out!"
Saul was a little confused, had she found out about her?
Should he eat her now?
Just as Saul's sanity was fighting against his hunger, the door to Mentor Kaz's lab was once again pushed open.
A man who looked seven times similar to Bill who died in the Valley of the Drooping Hand walked in.
Unlike Bill whose eyes were full of mockery, this man's face was expressionless and looked somewhat shady.
After he walked in, he closed and locked the door with his back hand, and then coldly gazed at Angela who had a tense face.
"Got you this time, believer in Bichir."
Angela's eyes widened at once, "Senior Billy?"
But before she could react, her left hand had acted first.
Only the young girl's left hand jerked forward, releasing gray twisted energy from the tips of her five fingers.
However, Billy on the other side just opened his mouth and silently recited something, and the distorted energy that was rapidly approaching him made a sour teeth "zira" sound, and was completely canceled out.
Seeing this, Angela became even more nervous, while her left hand once again threw out the puppet doll in her palm.
But Billy grabbed the puppet doll with his bare hands and pinched it, the puppet doll let out a mournful wail, and then two lines of blood tears flowed out of its empty eyes.
Billy casually threw the broken puppet doll into the trash can next to the front door, which had turned back to yellow.
He walked slowly toward Angela.
Angela looked nervous as hell, but her eyes kept rolling as if she was thinking of another way to get out of the situation.
When Billy was less than three meters from Angela, he stopped again.
"You've raised a grudge spirit inside you? Are all apprentices nowadays so bold? I've seen similar ones in this way, but the means are more skillful than yours. It's hard to believe that you bought a defective product from the Mutual Aid Association?" Hearing Billy's words, Angela was so shocked that she didn't even roll her eyes, "You, you, could it be that you are the one who sold this Priest method to me?"
Billy frowned slightly, "Is there a problem with my expression, or is there a problem with your hearing?"
Did he just mean what he said?
At that moment, a black shadow spread out from under Angela's feet, seemingly trying to sneak up on Billy while the two were talking.
While Saul, who was watching from the sidelines, saw the same starry purple particles emanating around Billy's body, which were just hard to spot with the naked eye.
As soon as Angela's black shadow got close to those purple particles wrapped around Billy's body, it was corroded, emitting a pungent smoke.
But Angela couldn't see the purple particles, nor could she see the smoke, she could only slowly turn white after noticing that the black shadow was not coming back.
Saul was suddenly a little curious about the composition of the purple particles as well, curiosity overriding his hunger. He reached out a few tentacles to approach Billy, one of them sticking out its tongue in an attempt to roll a purple pellet back.
However, the tentacle's outstretched transparent tongue was instantly corroded out of a large hole just as it touched the purple pellet.
The tentacle trembled and hastily withdrew the tongue that had burned a hole.
"This Billy actually majored in the poison attribute element just like his brother Bill." Saul sighed and suddenly jumped backward and flew to the ceiling.
In the next second, Billy twisted his head to look around, and the purple particles around his body violently expanded outward in a circle, but Saul, who had long since retracted his hand, had already climbed up to the ceiling.
Billy didn't notice anything else out of the ordinary, and assumed it was Angela's undying attempt to try again.
He gathered up the purple particles and walked toward Angela again.
Angela recoiled in fear, her back slamming into the cabinet behind her in one fell swoop.
In a head-to-head confrontation, she definitely couldn't beat Third Level Apprentice Billy.
But the tactics played in private didn't work at all. Even the illusion released by her left hand was corrupted by something and disappeared the moment she got close to Billy.
In the face of the well-known third level apprentice, she was surprisingly helpless!
"Are you going to arrest me and hand me over to my mentor?" Already without the ability to resist Angela, she could only helplessly perform a beauty trick.
She trembled as she looked towards Billy, a clear tear slipping from the corner of her eye and sliding down to her jaw.
Just in the ordinary people's world is better to use the beauty plan, in the wizard world often hit a wall. This time was no exception, and Billy didn't move a muscle in the face of Angela's tears.
"If I wanted to get you, I wouldn't have let you go on purpose last time."
"Last time?" Angela couldn't believe it, was it because of Billy that she was able to escape Billy and Konza's roundup last time and find a scapegoat in time to take her place?
"That's right, I was watching you from a short distance when you temporarily knocked on the door to coax the boy out."
Angela had to believe it this time. She put away her tears and looked at Billy warily, "What the ... hell are you doing?"
Billy hugged his chest and leaned against the door, "I need Bichir's Conjuration to extract enough grudges to create a soul toxin."
"You're insane! Even if I don't know anything about soul toxins, I wonder how many people would have to be killed to create a toxin that your third level apprentices could use? At that time, I'm afraid it'll be my mentor coming over and tearing me apart with his own hands!"
Billy didn't care about Angela's anger in the slightest, he waited for Angela to finish venting before he lowered his voice and said, "You, have you stayed in the Sorcerer's Tower for too long, have you forgotten the wide world outside?"
Angela froze.
Billy continued, "People, there are plenty of them out there, I'm responsible for providing the place, you're responsible for killing them. The souls that come to hand, we can split them equally."
Angela gritted her teeth, although she had already killed a lot of people, she had never thought of turning on the slaughter mode.
And Billy across the table brought up human life like he was just talking about a string of numbers.
"Do I have a choice?" Angela bit one side of her lip.
"There is," Billy raised his eyes, "death."
