War Paradise

Chapter 91 Loyal props

Unexpectedly, Lin Chi, who would meet a special NPC here, stared down at the old man who fell on the ground:

The old man was no more than 1.5 meters tall, and he looked pitiful when he was bent over. The rough skin was covered with deep wrinkles like ravines, and he was at least 90 years old by visual inspection.

“Uh……”

The old man who had just been picked out by Lin Chi grumbled something in pain, and suddenly raised his right hand, but it was too late to “release the skill”. The dark red walking stick in his hand had been chopped off by the sword of the Demon Slayer’s hand armor!

Before the old man continued to resist, Lin Chi had already put his sword on the opponent’s neck and threatened in a low voice, “Be honest.”

“Bastard stuff…”

The old man was still screaming, but he also curled up obediently, not daring to make any more movements.

“If I see your other organ dolls appear, I will chop off your head.” Lin Chi looked around and looked at the dimly lit secret room: “It’s best not to think about me.”

Hearing this, the old man murmured again, and his right hand trembled.

After hearing a crash, the ten pale white puppets hidden in the corner fell apart and collapsed weakly to the ground.

“I have surrendered!” the old man muttered, “Spare my life…”

Seeing the other person’s spineless begging for mercy, Lin Chi did not remove Jian Feng, but suddenly asked:

“Are you tricking some alcoholics to come here and use their bodies to make organ dolls?”

The old man nodded in frustration, sat up, put his hands behind his head, and assumed a standard surrender posture: “Yes, I am studying dolls here, don’t kill me…”

Although the other party didn’t leave his life in three words, Lin Chi didn’t mean to let this guy go, but just continued to ask slowly:

“What’s your name?”

Although the old man wanted to kill himself, he was a special NPC anyway, so it was a pity to kill him.

“It’s Shen Wenchong below.” The old man immediately said, “The name Taixuan is from Maoshan Taoist Temple.”

“The Taoist still studies organ techniques, don’t you cultivate and become immortal?” Lin Chi asked curiously.

“You don’t understand that Maoshan Taoist Academy is all old and stubborn, and has been out of touch with the times. Compared with the very low efficiency of cultivation in this era, it is better to study organ techniques. As long as you change your body into a man, you can live forever? Speaking of his profession, Shen Wenchong suddenly became interested, and for a while he forgot to ask for mercy.

“This is also an idea…” Lin Chi nodded.

In fact, the “uploading of human consciousness to the Internet” that scientists in the real world are studying is basically the same as the old man’s research direction. It also uses machinery to make people achieve immortality.

Even if the science and technology tree is crooked, the research direction is still the same, so to speak…

“History is always surprisingly similar.”

Lin Chi smiled and removed the blade on the old man’s neck: “It seems that your research has failed.”

As soon as the words came out, the old man stood up immediately unconvinced and retorted loudly, “Not yet!”

“How many years can your bones live?” Lin Chi narrowed his eyes and stared at the other’s old face.

“Don’t look at my old age, many parts in this body have been replaced, and I can live for at least fifty years.” The old man patted his chest proudly: “I am a master of life extension!”

“okay then.”

Standing in the dark secret room, Lin Chi looked around, stretched out his hand and patted the old man’s shoulder, and said with a smile:

“I like your ability. If you want to survive, you will have to do things for me in the future.”

Lin Chi could see that even though this old man was not a good thing, his skill in making organ dolls was definitely top-notch.

The bald man who deceived himself in the tavern before was almost fake, and he couldn’t see that he was a doll at all. He was even more like a real person than the owner of the “Daily Flow Doll Shop”.

If it weren’t for inadvertently, seeing a piece of wood exposed under the man’s trouser legs, Lin Chi wouldn’t have thought that the thing would be a mechanical doll.

If this old man can be brought under his command, his combat effectiveness will undoubtedly be greatly improved!

And now, Lin Chi has already thought of a way to convince this guy…

“As long as I can save my life, let me do anything.”

Seeing a chance to survive, the old man immediately expressed his loyalty. However, Lin Chi naturally wouldn’t believe this glib old fritters so easily, he just winked at that guy:

“Come with me, if you dare to act rashly, I will blow your head.”

Under Lin Chi’s “escort”, the old man reluctantly left his murder studio, and walked out staggeringly.

Although Lin Chi had put away the Hidden Blade, the deterrent power of his armor just now was so great that the old man didn’t dare to act rashly for a while, and could only move on with Lin Chi.

The two left the intricate, labyrinth-like Xiacheng District, and returned to the puppet shop where there is no water.

As soon as Lin Chi opened the door, he saw the exiled shop manager packing his parcel in the house, as if he was about to leave:

“Ah… have you come, have you found my “father”?” While asking questions, the store manager looked at the old man behind Lin Chi: “Who is this thief?”

“Do you dare to comment on me?” The old man snorted unconvinced.

“How did you tell?”

Realizing that the other party had seen his identity in an instant, the store manager stopped the action at hand, and the expression on his face suddenly became complicated: “Want to die?”

“Wait a minute, don’t quarrel.” Lin Chi smiled and stood in between the two.

“This old man is my new partner. I need you to help me build a’collar’, similar to the puppet master’s armor, you know.” Lin Chi said and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Hearing his words, the smart beautiful woman puppet immediately understood what he meant: “You want to control him?”

“Yes.”

Lin Chi suddenly activated the Hidden Blade, pressing the throat of the old man who was about to turn around and run: “Don’t even want to run, jerk.”

——In the face of such insidious and cunning, guys who may betray at any time, naturally they have to take special measures. The shopkeeper who built the armor of the puppet master should be able to make similar things.

“Ha, you just came here, I happen to have one left here. This is a bestseller, and many female customers buy it and give it to her husband as a gift.”

As the shop owner said, he pulled out a brass collar from under the counter, stuffed it into Lin Chi’s left hand, took out a brown wood ring similar to the ring that controlled the armor in his hand, and placed it on the counter.

“I am about to leave the Institution City, so I will treat it as a farewell gift. Anyway, I will be taken away by the ‘doll house’ if I stay here anyway.”

“Well, thank you then.”

Lin Chi felt the weight of the metal collar in his left hand, and the text of the item introduction popped out in due course:

The collar of the puppet master.

Special props.

Item level: Sophisticated.

Special requirement: Can only be used on NPC.

The special props created by the manager of the Broken Flow Doll Shop will not be able to be taken off by the person wearing the collar. If you try to remove the collar or attack the holder of the ring, the blade hidden in the collar will automatically activate and cut. Lower the wearer’s head.

“Women’s heart, needles on the bottom of the sea.-Propaganda slogan for the Broken Flow Doll Shop.”

“Ha, this is not bad.” Lin Chi smiled.

Obviously, this item is similar to the “Dark Tower Warden’s Bracelet” in the previous map, but the control area is much smaller, and it can only control one NPC.

But even so, for Lin Chi, such props were enough.

He put the new ring on the little finger of his left hand, and saw the serrated blade on the inside of the collar suddenly retracted it back. Seeing this scene, Lin Chi handed the collar to the shivering old man, and smiled: “Put it on, ‘friend’?”

“…”

Looking at the ghost that could not be removed once it was worn, which meant that he would be a slave for life, the old man’s hands trembled slightly, but under the threat of the sword’s edge, he could not take the collar and put it on his own. On the neck.

Click!

With a crisp sound, the mechanism behind the collar snapped.

“Don’t take off the ring, or he will die.” The shop owner thoughtfully reminded him again: “In addition, if you want to kill him, just press the button on this ring.”

“You bastards, don’t you know how to respect the old man…” The old man tremblingly stroked the terror organ on his neck, his angry voice trembling slightly.

“The murderer is embarrassed to demand respect?”

Lin Chi shook the ring on his left hand in front of the old man, the expression on his face was very proud.

——Although the method of recruitment is rather “strange”, for Lin Chi, this old man is the first NPC he successfully recruited after entering the Institution City!

“Follow me, it’s best not to run away, if you still want your head.”

Lin Chi laughed, turned and pushed open the door of the Shushuiliu doll shop.
