Chapter 502: 164. Silent Visitor
Upon seeing the weak Blood Sun Converter, Noland Lee’s first reaction was that Nikcat had been tainted by the Blood Sun Divine Seal.
However, after looking at the results of Passive Deconstruction, Noland negated this speculation.
The title System assigned to Nikcat did not have the words “Contaminated XXXX” in it.
Nikcat’s personalized panel information obtained from deconstruction also did not possess features like “Corrupted Soul” or “One body, two sides” relating to “Contaminated.”
So where did the weak Blood Sun Converter that emerged from Nikcat’s corpse come from?
Noland knew something was odd and could not allow his arms to continue being separated from his body.
Without any hesitation, he activated “Death Two Finger” and instantly killed the weak Blood Sun Converter with black lightning.
After such a sharp operation, he cast “Soul Absorption” once more. Noland successfully obtained Nikcat’s soul fragments.
[Soul Strength +11 points]
[Soul Strength inventory is 6042 points]
“Nikcat’s soul fragments are too few, aren’t they?”
Noland manipulated his arms to clean up the battlefield while observing Nikcat’s panel information and recent memory fragments.
A few lines of characters on the panel information and a few sinister memory fragments aroused Noland’s alertness.
[Soul Contract: Blood Sun Divine Seal Descendants (Invalid)]
Nikcat secretly signed a soul contract with the descendants of the Blood Sun Divine Seal.
You must launch the Deconstruction Technique on this soul contract from his panel when Nikcat is alive to obtain detailed information about this contract.
Now, since Nikcat has died, this soul contract has become invalid, and you can no longer obtain the specific content of the contract through Deconstruction Technique.
The “Soul Contract” entry is a subentry of “Soul Strength.”
After Noland, Denise Green, and Mabel signed the soul contract with the original master “Noland Lee Jarvis,” they also unlocked the corresponding subentry.
The fact that Nikcat signed a soul contract with the Blood Sun Seal Descendants puzzled Noland.
Since Nikcat is already dead, Noland cannot use the Deconstruction Technique to learn the specific content of the soul contract.
Fortunately, he found some clues in Nikcat’s recent memory fragments.
“So, it turns out…
“The fake Fugidia pursued Nikcat because the Blood Sun Divine Seal Descendant had helped Nikcat. The Blood Sun Descendant drove away the fake Fugidia before she could catch up with Nikcat. After this, the Blood Sun Descendants, through the Blood Sun Converters, had a chat with Nikcat… What exactly was the content of that conversation…”
Noland carefully flipped through the memory fragments.
Unfortunately, the process of the conversation between Nikcat and the Blood Sun Descendant did not appear in the memory fragments.
In the memory fragments that Noland obtained, one second Nikcat saw the Blood Sun Converter, and the next second, the Blood Sun Converter in front of him had left.
A long section of content in the middle was obviously artificially erased.
Assuming that the erased memory content is related to the soul contract and based on the already invalid soul contract, there’s no doubt that Nikcat was colluding with the Blood Sun Descendant.
However, whether or not this matter involved the Lecturer Professor behind Nikcat remains unknown. The Lecturer Professor is not a babysitter, nor a monitor or guardian, so he wouldn’t meddle in such matters.
Assuming that Nikcat personally signed a soul contract with the Blood Sun Descendant, what did he have that the Blood Sun Descendant found valuable?
Noland was somewhat puzzled and couldn’t figure it out.
Nikcat’s panel information showed that he was a pure bone frame, possessing a large amount of bone magic knowledge and some death magic.
After Noland killed him, he gained some magical knowledge, several incomplete spell blueprints, and a scholarly skill.
“Bone Dictionary,” corresponding to “Bone Identification.” This is a scholarly skill specifically used to test the quality and functions of bones.
In addition, “Wand Making Science” and “Magic Tailoring” also increased. However, this was due to Noland breaking Nikcat’s Phalanx Magic Wand and Magic Robe forcibly. Nikcat himself didn’t create magic wands or robes. Noland didn’t gain knowledge related to these two subjects after passively deconstructing him.
So, what was the Blood Sun Descendant’s purpose in cooperating with a wizard like Nikcat who only had expertise in bone magic knowledge?
“Are they after his bones?”
Noland chuckled in his heart.
Since he couldn’t figure it out, he decided to temporarily stop thinking about it.
Noland manipulated his arms to collect all the corpse fragments on the scene into the Blood Haven, completely wiping out any traces of the battle.
Since the weak Blood Sun Converter had just come out of Nikcat’s corpse, Noland decided to study Nikcat’s corpse thoroughly when he returned to see if there was anything special about it.
