The Strongest Curse Master: Start by refining the Seven Arrows Book

#143 - Chapter 143 The New Abilities of the Stand-in Puppet

After Gu Ning waited for Fang Che's excitement to subside, he took out the jade pendant used to enter and exit this place and handed it to Fang Che, saying:

"Next, I need to prepare for my promotion to the fourth rank, so I won't keep you. When you come next time, it's best to choose after half a year, by which time I should have completed the breakthrough."

Fang Che nodded lightly and said, "Understood, then I'll take my leave."

"Take care."

Afterward, Fang Che put on his cloak, wore his mask, took out the temporary Son of the Plane token from his Niwan Palace, put it into his storage ring, and then took out the black jade pendant needed to leave this place, directly crushing it.

A mist instantly covered Fang Che's body, obscuring his vision.

When the mist dissipated, Fang Che had already returned to a mission hall in the Emperor Plane.

Fang Che looked around and found many familiar faces.

This was precisely the mission hall near Iron Hand Academy; the last time he returned, Fang Che was teleported here.

Fang Che didn't rush back to the Iron Hand Gang but quietly left this place under the cover of his cloak and mask.

Fang Che wanted to take advantage of his free time to capture Hong Fei and seize the plane coordinates from his hands.

After getting away from the Iron Hand Academy area, Fang Che found a place to stay and took out the enhancement item that could give curse items new abilities.

Immediately afterward, Fang Che took out the curse items he possessed and pondered silently.

Fang Che currently had four items, among which the Nailhead Seven Arrows Book was specifically used for killing.

Furthermore, because Fang Che previously guessed that Gu Ning was wary of the Nailhead Seven Arrows Book, Fang Che didn't plan to enhance it.

Fang Che put away the Nailhead Seven Arrows Book and glanced at the Voodoo Doll, also putting it away.

The Voodoo Doll could investigate enemy information, destroy groups, and collect resources; its functions were simply too numerous.

Having too many functions wasn't necessarily a good thing; if Fang Che needed to use two abilities in two directions, the Voodoo Doll wouldn't be able to solve it in a short time.

Therefore, Fang Che needed to separate the functions.

Immediately afterward, Fang Che focused his attention on the Revenge Evil Mirror.

Fang Che's original intention in refining the Revenge Evil Mirror was to find hidden enemies; he hadn't thought about other aspects.

Moreover, Fang Che couldn't think of a way for the Revenge Evil Mirror to control enemies.

Fang Che put away the Revenge Evil Mirror and focused his attention on the Substitute Puppet.

The Substitute Puppet could condense wooden pieces to touch enemies, making them Fang Che's substitute, replacing Fang Che to withstand attacks.

This Substitute Puppet was Fang Che's only item that actively came into contact with enemies.

In terms of controlling enemies, actively contacting them should have some advantages.

Thinking of this, Fang Che stuck the item onto the Substitute Puppet and used the [Flash of Inspiration] skill.

The Substitute Puppet immediately absorbed the item, and its original abilities were enhanced, and new abilities were born:

[The Substitute Puppet can be divided into a core talisman and forty-eight substitute talismans. Integrating the substitute talismans into the bodies of seventeen types of professionals such as Curse Masters and Fire Manipulators can regard seven types of professionals as substitutes;

When you suffer a fatal injury, the core talisman can transfer the damage to the body of any substitute, with the substitute bearing the fatal injury;

Substitute talismans can conceal their aura in environments with accumulated stones and lush wood-attribute abilities;

After the substitute talisman is integrated into the body of a professional, the body of the professional can be controlled through the Substitute Puppet]

Seeing this information, Fang Che smiled slightly, drew a portrait of Hong Fei, and stuck it on the Revenge Evil Mirror.

Information about Hong Fei quickly condensed on the Revenge Evil Mirror; at the same time, Fang Che also felt his body rapidly weakening.

Fang Che glanced at Hong Fei's information and found that Hong Fei was still in the previous area.

Fang Che noted this information and then closed his eyes, relaxing his tired body.

Time flew by, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Fang Che's body returned to normal, and he immediately set off to find Hong Fei.

……

East of the Seven Star Gang's sphere of influence, in the area bordering other gangs, there is a relatively prosperous market.

This place was once the territory controlled by a gang in ancient times.

However, with the rise and fall of various forces, this market was successively occupied by multiple forces.

Now, the market has developed rapidly, providing huge commissions every year.

The gangs around the market are unwilling to give up the market but are unable to occupy it alone. Therefore, the market is jointly managed by multiple gangs.

At this time, in the market, a flamboyant second-tier woman was leisurely strolling around the market, occasionally stopping in front of some stalls to buy one or two items.

After shopping, the woman walked into a small alley, where she saw a black-clad, masked third-tier Curse Master sitting in a corner.

The woman felt the powerful aura emanating from the third-tier Curse Master, respectfully lowered her head, and then turned and left.

In the corner, Fang Che, masked in black, looked up at the woman's back, a hint of joy in his eyes.

Fang Che gently waved his hand, and the Voodoo Doll burrowed out of the ground and was collected by Fang Che.

Then, Fang Che stood up and followed the woman's footsteps.

Before long, Fang Che followed the woman away from the market and came to a deserted forest.

Fang Che quickened his pace, walked up to the woman, and looked at the woman's expressionless appearance, somewhat expectantly using the power of the Substitute Puppet to stop controlling the woman's facial expressions and some of her voice.

The next second, the woman's expression twisted in terror, and she desperately cried for help, "Help!"

However, the woman's voice was weak, barely audible to Fang Che.

Fang Che continued to use the power of the Substitute Puppet, controlling the woman's voice volume and manipulating the woman to make various expressions such as joy and sorrow.

These expressions were lifelike, and even her eyes were changing in coordination with the expressions.

If the woman hadn't been constantly calling for help, it wouldn't have been possible to see any fear.

The woman realized her situation and immediately stopped calling for help, pleading, "Senior, I don't know where I have offended you? Please spare me, I am willing to pay any price."

Upon hearing this, Fang Che stopped manipulating the woman to change her emotions and calmly said, "I want the plane coordinates."

The woman immediately agreed, "No problem, as long as Senior lets me go, I will definitely work hard to find the plane coordinates in the future and give them to Senior."

Fang Che looked at the woman's expression of agreeing to everything in order to save her life and praised, "Hong Fei, your acting is very good, no wonder the Seven Star Gang has never found you?"

The woman asked with a blank face, "What Hong Fei? Why is the Seven Star Gang looking for me."

Seeing that the woman still didn't admit it, Fang Che took out the potion that Gu Ning had given him, cut open his palm, and sprinkled the blood into it.

The potion absorbed the blood and instantly turned red.

Then, Fang Che handed the potion to the woman, manipulating the woman to take the potion and drink it into her stomach.

At this moment, a look of horror appeared in the woman's eyes, wanting to stop drinking the potion, but her body was completely out of her control, and she quickly finished the potion.

Immediately afterward, the woman's expression gradually became blank, and a voice seemed to be telling herself in her heart that she must believe in the person in front of her without reservation.

The woman realized something was wrong, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes, but before long, the struggling emotions disappeared, and the woman looked at Fang Che with absolute trust.
