Lord of the Witches

Chapter 50 Essos ghost grass

The coffee table is almost full of various manuscripts and notes. There is a cup of cold coffee, a plate of scattered snacks in the gap, and a small flower pot in the corner.

The plant in the pot was pitch-black with a little bit of purple in it. It was shaped like a sunflower that was dried up and then soaked in ink, dried in the sun, and then turned over and thrown there. It was extremely inconspicuous.

call!

A gust of night wind opened the curtains and swept across the living room, causing the dry branches and leaves of the plants to move.

Seems to be blown by the wind?

The night wind was gentle, but occasionally there was a heavier blow, which made the desk lamp next to Tang Qi shake suddenly, and the light also shook along with it.

In the creaking sound, another voice was mixed in it.

"Pfft~"

The withered plant in the flowerpot jumped up suddenly, like a weird bug, and embraced Tang Qi's face at an extremely precise angle.

In his sleep, there was still sound interference, a high school student had no defense at all.

You can't even notice it, can you?

laugh!

At this moment, a bright silver light suddenly appeared, and the sharp dagger pierced into the body of the seemingly dry but slippery "plant". Then with a bang, the tip of the dagger pierced through the wooden coffee table and nailed the plants to it.

"Squeak ~ squeak"

A mouse-like cry immediately emanated from the plant, sharp and ear-piercing.

"Huh? Sure enough, it is the same as what is recorded in the notes, the legendary dark plant that can temporarily host the soul... the shadow bridle fungus!"

"hum"

When Tang Qi spit out the five words, the weird plant on the coffee table, which was struggling and screaming, that is, the shadow clump, suddenly stopped. Although it was still slightly twisting, trying to relieve the pain, it was indeed quiet. It was just a few dark, slippery tentacles shaking wildly, as if they wanted to express something.

Seeing this scene, Tang Qi was not surprised at all.

Turning around silently, he went to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water.

Then it was placed in front of the pinned plant tentacles, opened its mouth at the same time, and said something that made people feel horrified.

"It's our first meeting, Professor Cassel, you can call me Tang Qi."

When introducing himself, Tang Qi didn't reach out his hand, probably because he didn't need it. After all, the object of communication was a plant.

Barely, it's a plant.

At least the interface that popped out of Tang Qi's eyes did not deny this.

[Extraordinary creature: shadow clump fungus. 】

[Status: Activating. 】

[Information Fragment 1: One of the oldest and rarest plants in the Saha continent. It is called "Essos ghost grass" by black wizards and shamans. Its real name is shadow bridle fungus. , it allows the soul that has lost its body to lodge temporarily, and put it in an activated state, so that the host soul can find a new body conveniently. 】

[Information fragment 2: Although it is activated, it is also very fragile, so fragile that an adult human can easily kill it and the soul inside. 】

This information is why Tang Qi deliberately brought it back.

Today, Tang Qi is entertaining the guests inside.

Just the way, the guests obviously don't like it that much.

Tang Qi blinked, looked at the tentacle that gave up struggling, did not exchange too many greetings, and said indifferently as if telling a story: "A professor of history who ran around and worked hard when he was young, finally obtained great achievements in his old age. High status and income, oh yes, fame."

"It's a pity that when I should enjoy all this, I suffer from an incurable cancer. Her terminally ill body can't even satisfy the young and beautiful teaching assistant. Captain of the Guard."

"The old professor couldn't stand all of this, so he remembered the knowledge he had, the mysterious fields, and the weird secret medicine. The old professor prepared two curse potions and designed them for the teaching assistant and her lover to drink."

"Soon there were two more spider monsters in the school. They couldn't restrain their desire to kill. After killing six people in succession, they finally tasted enough of human fear. They mustered up the courage to go to the professor and successfully killed him. .”

"Unfortunately, they didn't know that the professor had expected all of this a long time ago, and his soul was transferred to the Essos ghost grass at that moment. The old professor planned to wait for everything to pass, find a suitable body, and start a new life."

"Am I right? Professor Rick Castle!"

After Tang Qi finished speaking, he asked a question, and then fell silent.

After waiting for a while, a sticky tentacle of that weird plant moved, slowly lifted it up and put it into the cup, soaked it with water, and began to write on the tea table.

Can hear, but not speak? It's amazing.

Seeing the crooked handwriting appear, Tang Qi exclaimed in his heart.

Although it was the first time to write with tentacles, Professor Kassel's control was good, and the line of writing was clearly displayed.

"what do you want?"

Seeing the problem, Tang Qi was not surprised.

After all, he is a professor who is about to end his life, and he will not really be described in some stereotyped novels as having a high IQ and a low EQ.

Instead of asking Tang Qi what he wanted, he directly asked Tang Qi what he wanted.

Obviously, the old professor also knew that in his current state, he would fall into the hands of Tang Qi, who was obviously an "extraordinary person", so he might not have much leverage to negotiate with.

Tang Qi didn't say the request immediately, but glanced at it, and then stabbed its wounded heart again, but Tang Qi continued: "Before listening to my conditions, I have to tell you a cruel In fact, your parasitic behavior just now is very rude, and even if I don't resist, your efforts will be in vain."

"I don't know where you learned that after transferring your soul to the Essos ghost grass, you can rely on the activated state to parasitize the human body at will. I regret to tell you that it is impossible."

"Essos ghost grass can indeed be used to transfer souls, but it requires extremely harsh conditions, and you need to find a suitable body. Believe me, the word suitable rejects most of the humans on Blue Star. At the same time, you need someone to help you Perform rituals, such as chanting mantras."

"If these are not satisfied, you can only maintain this state until ten days later, you will dry up and die."

As soon as Tang Qi finished speaking, he heard a "click" sound from the coffee table, the water glass was directly swept down by the tentacles, and seven or eight greasy tentacles writhed wildly, obviously receiving a lot of impact.

Rows of curvy small characters were subconsciously written by it.

Damn wizard, how dare you lie to me?

I gave them half of the funds!

I'm going to kill them all!

...

For half a minute, it finished expressing its anger, but it still couldn't break free from the dagger.

Finally, a tentacle was raised again, and in front of Tang Qi, he wrote the following words word by word.

You, willing to help me?

Seeing this sentence, Tang Qi's eyelids drooped slightly, his eyes were dim, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

"certainly!"

Tang Qi put down his coffee and said with a smile.
