When I was supposed to be slaying the dragon, I accidentally started cultivating immortality

When Old Tang jumped out from the crack in the coffin lid, he had to admit that his legs were a little weak.

This job of attracting corpse guards should have been the responsibility of Mai Shutoku, but he had just damaged Mai Shutoku's knife when he was experimenting on the power he awakened after taking the medicine.

Although he immediately tried to use that strength to assemble the knife again, and even "pinched" its rough spherical area again, it could only remain intact in his hand.

The moment Shuutoku Mai took it in her hand, the blade fell off the handle like the petals of a lilac after a rainstorm, leaving only the bare handle like a short metal stick in Mai Suddoku's hand.

So now the task of attracting the two corpse guards and dealing with them belongs to him - he can't let Mai Shutoku carry a short stick less than half a meter long to "deal with" a behemoth with an upright height of more than six meters.

Although even including the blade, the knife was just a dagger in front of the six-meter-tall corpse guard, it still had an edge when it was held in Old Tang's hand.

After drinking the potion and awakening this strange ability, Old Tang clearly felt that he could control metals, such as the buttons on his clothes, and the metal nameplates worn around his neck similar to those used by mercenaries to identify corpses. , he can completely control them to fly freely, and even shoot them out like bullets.

It's a pity that he doesn't have any big metal on hand at the moment. After all his teammates died and he and Mai Shutoku ran out of bullets, he even threw away the gun. After all, without bullet supply, an empty-loaded gun would be a hit. Even if you throw it away, it can reduce your burden and make it easier to run.

If the gun was still there, he could throw the iron lump out and hit the corpse guard.

Although the nameplate and buttons can also be used, they are too small. Even if he could mash them into one piece and then accelerate them to the speed of Barrett's bullets coming out of the chamber, they would not be able to make a hole in the body of the corpse guard. It can only cause a little damage. Considering the naturally rotting flesh and skin on the body of the corpse guard, it is hard to say whether the small pits made by the metal can be considered injuries.

If he could control the naginata in Mai Shutori's hand like ordinary metal, or even the swords clustered on the corpse's skeleton, then the small volume of available metal would not be a problem - unfortunately he couldn't do it, although he could also do it to a certain extent. To a certain extent, it affects Shutoku Mai's naginata and the sword on the corpse's skeleton, but this effect is very limited, and he can't even make them fly.

However, correspondingly, the swords that Mai Shutoku calls "alchemy weapons" seem to have some kind of special consciousness and power. Although it is difficult for him to control the materials of these swords, he can easily change them after contact. The awareness and power that comes with it.

For example, the pieced-together naginata in his hand is actually not put back together and maintained by his ability. Instead, he changed the consciousness and power in the naginata, allowing the naginata to piece itself together—— But for some reason, the naginata no longer maintained its power once it was in Shutoku Mai's hand, and fell into fragments on the ground.

Among them, Guanqiao Old Tang has no time to think about it now. When Fei Ge gave him the medicine, he said that although the medicine was effective, it had a time limit, and the side effects of using two medicines together were not small. He had to escape as soon as possible, otherwise Once the medicine wears off, you can only wait to die.

It’s just that when Brother Fei gave him the medicine, he only said “it works well”. As a result, after taking it, his physical fitness has improved significantly, and he is so energetic that he doesn’t feel tired at all. He has even awakened a “superpower” similar to Magneto... …This cannot be described simply as “good effect”.

I have long heard that Chinese people are relatively modest. Today, through Brother Fei, he not only saw the modesty of the Chinese people, but also saw their generosity. It is really too embarrassing to give away an extra dose of such a precious medicine!

The only thing he was worried about was that Brother Fei was "modest" about the effects of the medicine. Now that he had taken the medicine, he was unexpectedly happy. So wouldn't Brother Fei be "modest" about the side effects he said?

But now that his life is in danger, he doesn't have much energy to worry about the future. He can only bite the bullet and jump out of the sarcophagus with a naginata and rush towards the large corpse guard. After dragging out the corpse guard, Mai Shutoku will find an opportunity. Take the Pot of the Galaxy.

However, what surprised him was that when he was secretly ready to turn around and run away as soon as the corpse guard moved towards him, but on the surface he was holding a naginata and running towards the corpse guard with rapid strides, the corpse guard actually... took the initiative to retreat. Already? !

Seeing the six-meter-tall behemoth fluttering its bone wings and retreating, Old Tang, who was striding like a meteor, almost stumbled.

what's going on?

Standing less than thirty meters away from the corpse guard, which was the maximum range that his awakened ability could cover, Old Tang took a tentative step forward. The corpse guard immediately took a big step back and exited Old Tang's territory.

Old Tang took another step forward, approaching the area but not touching the corpse guard, which remained motionless.

Old Tang took two more steps forward, and the edge of the domain was close to touching the corpse guard, who immediately took a step back.

Old Tang's eyes widened - could it be that this dragon-like, rotten beast was actually a useless thing with a huge body but not really strong?

This idea flashed through Old Tang's mind, and then he rejected it - he could actually feel the vibrations caused by the dragon's claws on the ground when it moved. At least this weight and size were absolutely genuine. Even if it was just If you rush up, lie down and roll around, you can crush him!

Mai Shutoku taught him some science. Although this giant dragon is indeed a giant dragon, it is already dead. It is now a concocted alchemy puppet. It uses alchemy to drive its actions and protect an area. It is called a "corpse guard". From a certain perspective, it can be regarded as a "mummy among dragons" or a "zombie among dragons".

The corpse guard obviously has no brains. It relies entirely on the presets of alchemy and the remaining biological instincts. Old Tang can only guess that the scope of his ability makes it instinctively feel uncomfortable or even threatening, so he will take the initiative. Back away.

Maybe...this is an opportunity?

The original plan of Old Tang and Mai Shutoku was for him to attract the Zhou Xuan Corpse Guard, and Mai Shutoku took the opportunity to get the Milky Way Pot on the stone platform. But now that he is pressing closer to the stone platform, the Corpse Guard will only retreat. If he Take two steps closer and let the scope of your ability cover the Milky Way Pot on the stone platform. Is it possible to directly control the consciousness in it and use it?

Old Tang decided to give it a try. If Corpse Guard kept retreating and tolerated his ability field coming into contact with the Galaxy Pot, then he could try to use the Galaxy Pot.

If the opponent was originally made to guard the Pot of the Galaxy and was made into a corpse guard, he would definitely not be able to bear it and would launch an attack. Then it would be Mai Shutoku's chance to take the Pot of the Galaxy!

Old Tang strode forward, and the corpse guard then stepped back, making the ground shake slightly with every step. Knowing that it was standing next to the stone platform and that Old Tang's domain was only a few meters away from the Galaxy Pot, the corpse guard stopped retreating and allowed his body to be enveloped by Old Tang's domain.

Old Tang hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and suddenly jumped forward, and the realm instantly enveloped the Milky Way Pot.

The corpse guard roared silently to the sky, but still did not move.

The moment Old Tang's domain enveloped the Milky Way Pot, he felt that emotions far more complex than the naginata emerged from the Milky Way Pot. At the same time, the consciousness in the Milky Way Pot was actively pulling at him. After hesitating for a second, Old Tang was alert to the corpse guard who was roaring in the sky but not moving, and focused a little bit of his attention to communicate with the Galaxy Pot's consciousness.

A half-reality and half-illusion feeling came to him, and the body of the Milky Way Pot in his sight became blurred, replaced by a pocket-sized silver winding river. This seemed to be the visualization of the consciousness in the Milky Way Pot. It appeared to others in the eyes of others. It's still a pot, but in Old Tang's eyes.

Unexpectedly, the image it turned into was not the Milky Way in the sky, but a real silver river.

"It's a pity, this silver is still very beautiful. It would be great if the consciousness of this Galaxy Pot is a silver-haired beauty with hair of this color."

This thought popped up in Old Tang's heart, and then in his shocked eyes, the miniature silver river twisted. A few seconds later, it was replaced by a group of people wearing silver jumpsuits, with fair skin that was almost transparent, and long silver hair. A woman who is as tall and exquisite as Mai Shutoku and has a beautiful face without any flaws.

"Your Majesty," the woman saluted Old Tang, "I offer you the highest respect."

Old Tang was stunned for a moment. He really couldn't figure out what was going on. He was about to ask questions when he heard a rustling sound in the distance behind him.

He suddenly turned his head, and the small corpse guard who was originally guarding the door was now flying towards the sarcophagus where he and Shutoku Mai had taken refuge before, and now only Shutoku Mai was inside waiting for an opportunity!
