I Can See Health Bars in Real Life

Chapter 41: Fear Comes from Insufficient Firepower


Entering this dungeon world, it's already been a while, and several battles large and small have also been experienced.

Aside from the obviously expected rewards like level-ups, Gu Mo also acquired some game-like items and tools, such as Divine Water, Arrow-Deflecting Talisman, and of course, the most classic monster materials... In short, some are quite useful, while others are quite useless.

Among them, the Soul Core of the Demon Ghost belongs to the type that is hard to classify, oscillating between both categories.

If you say it's useless, actually every Soul Core is equivalent to a Skill Badge, even though it's limited to the type of Monster Skill or Demon Technique, and it must be equipped in the skill slot of the Guardian Spirit to be indirectly usable by oneself. But speaking of their usefulness... emmmm, currently Gu Mo can't really use those skills.

He has currently collected Soul Cores of the Hungry Ghost, ordinary Demon Ghost, Ape Ghost, and Horse-headed Ghost, and of course, quite a few of them are duplicates. Adding the current Outer Path Soldier Soul Core makes five Soul Cores in hand.

Examining the Outer Path Soldier Soul Core in his hand, Gu Mo had some considerations; if it could be used, naturally it would be the best, as he is really lacking in useful skills now.

As for the Horse-headed Ghost, not to mention, it is one of the most powerful Demon Ghost he has encountered so far, the Soul Core gotten from clinging onto its coattails possesses the skill "Great Slaughter Slash" which makes him extremely envious. Just think of the Horse-headed Ghost wielding that forty-meter serrated greatsword, imagine the immense swing executed by such a gigantic monster...

Large range, AOE, the damage is absolutely explosive.

Unfortunately, when Gu Mo attached the Horse-headed Ghost Soul Core to his own fox spirit, he hasn't succeeded in reproducing this powerful Demon Ghost strike even once, otherwise, even if he could only use it once in the short term, his output capability would receive a qualitative leap.

It's not for other reasons, it's just his energy bar is insufficient, far from reaching the standard to unleash such a strike.

The ordinary Demon Ghost and Ape Ghost Soul Cores are usable, but their attributes and effects aren't great, and the lack of special energy called Demonic Power means every use drains his Physical Strength and Spirit drastically in exchange, without any particular advantages, and excessively consuming one's energy, this obviously isn't a good choice.

Only the Hungry Ghost Soul Core is temporarily usable, summoning a hungry Hungry Ghost to furiously attack and bite the enemy, dealing some damage while absorbing the lost life essence of the enemy, restoring one's own Health Value to a certain extent...

The consumption is relatively lower, but not to the extent of using it casually, Gu Mo can only use it once when he judges it's necessary, not possible to treat it as a regular skill.

At this moment, the black-haired girl looked around, then continued walking down the corridor.

She was completely used to Gu Mo's quirky actions, like needing to wash his hands frequently and always reaching out to fan the air above fallen enemies, perhaps he couldn't stand the bloody smell...

The mansion was very large and exquisite, surrounded by all sorts of pathways, occupying an exceptionally large area.

However, in Hidechika's perception, even though some Demon Ghosts are wandering inside the mansion, a larger, more mixed demon aura is emanating from further away, with relatively more quantity... but in her perception, that distance and direction have already exceeded the mansion's scope, and have entered deep into the mountain.

So, actually, is there space inside the mountain? Is it hollow inside?

Hidechika thought so, but her actions weren't affected, still following her perception straight in the direction of the Lord of Constant Darkness, preparing to take it step by step and solve this issue first.

Winding and weaving through quite a few paths, knowing her target is right there, she can't walk in a straight line, can't possibly tear down the house, it's her father's future retirement place... The girl herself isn't in a hurry; she has the patience, just worried some people can't hold on.

However, having three more Points than the healthiest normal person has its benefits, and also the Guardian Spirit Nine-tailed seems to be helping Gu Mo resist the suppression of the Constant Darkness, letting him feel warmth and heat to some extent, blocking the ghostly demon aura and cold feeling of the black-and-white world.

Plus, occasionally sipping on Divine Water... he persisted much longer than imagined, at least not being exhausted before finding the Lord of Constant Darkness.

Gazing into the house ahead, in the eerie dim lighting environment, the black-haired girl's rose-red eyes weren't affected at all, clearly seeing the true appearance of the monster.

With a human body, clad in pitch-black samurai attire, but with a neck stretched thin and long, coiling like a snake, connected to a floating head seemingly in mid-air; it just sits quietly in the middle of the room, like a samurai meditating, the scene appears mysteriously strange.

Rattling Head.

A type of Demon Ghost with a neck that stretches freely, some associate them with the Flying Head Monster, but actually, they're two different monsters.

This kind of monster is somewhat special because when their necks aren't elongated, sticking their heads out like snakes, they appear like ordinary people. Not to mention ordinary people can't tell, sometimes even they themselves won't realize they are Rattling Heads, genuinely believing they live just like humans.
