Chapter 229: Fate-Altering Technique! Hell on Earth
[Disguise Technique (B): Consumes mana to alter your facial features, hairstyle, and body characteristics to any desired appearance.]
Notes:
1. This skill is not affected by level and cannot be seen through by those higher level than you.
2. When this skill is activated, the 'Eye of Identification' viewing your information will automatically display the information template of the person you are disguised as.
3. When disguising as a real person, their habitual actions and personality traits will be comprehended.
The 'Disguise Technique' had also been enhanced by 'Almighty.'
It would no longer be easily seen through by those of higher levels, unless they possessed extremely special means.
As Ling Zhan completely transformed his appearance into that of the perpetrator.
Details about the man's habits, actions, and other traits flooded his mind.
It's worth noting that this skill only inherits the target's habits and personality traits, not their memories.
If it inherited memories, the skill would be too terrifying.
Wearing the perpetrator's clothes, Ling Zhan's lips curled into a wicked, disdainful smile.
The victimized woman, seeing this scene, instinctively fell into a state of fear.
In her eyes, this man was identical to her abuser!
Whether in actions, expressions, or physical traits, he was exactly the same!
Bang!!
With cold eyes, Ling Zhan harshly grabbed the woman's hair, dragging the naked, pitiful woman downstairs.
The idly guarding Demon Arrival remnants downstairs saw this.
They exchanged glances, all showing mocking smiles.
"Brother Liu, why are you down so soon this time?"
"Can't perform well anymore?"
"Why don't we roast this woman and eat her, her skin is so tender!"
It was clear.
These remnants usually had a good relationship with this sub-leader, even joking with each other.
In their eyes, Brother Liu usually took hours before coming out when dragging a woman upstairs.
And the woman, if not dead, would be severely abused.
But this time, he came down so quickly, and the woman only had some minor injuries...
Could Brother Liu really be failing in that aspect?
Though puzzled, they never thought this Brother Liu could be an imposter.
With the protection of the Demonic Spirit Array and the Order of Order.
Plus, three third-tier powerhouses stationed in the town.
These remnants were extremely arrogant.
Even their usual guarding was done lazily.
This morning, they saw a few third-tier powerhouses from the Dragon Kingdom suffer greatly in front of the Demonic Spirit Array, nearly getting severely injured.
Since then.
The vigilance of the thousands of remnants in Black Rock Town had dropped to the lowest.
Indeed!
The great Demon Lord would surely protect us demon citizens!
All things are inferior, only demons are supreme!
Facing the remnants' mockery, Ling Zhan coldly threw the woman on the ground.
Pfft!
The woman, thrown with great force, coughed up blood, nearly losing consciousness!
But she gritted her teeth, making no sound!
She knew, this was the price to leave this hell!
"This woman bores me, useless like a dead dog. If you want her, take her now!"
"Drag her to the hostages, bring a prettier one!"
Ling Zhan impatiently waved his hand.
Several remnants nodded quickly.
Then they crudely dragged the woman's hair, ignoring her cries, even stabbing her a few times!
As if treating livestock!
Ling Zhan...
Maintained an evil smile, following behind without any intention to intervene!
Meanwhile.
He took note of the deployment of remnant forces and building layouts around.
At this moment, he not only looked identical to the sub-leader, but also used the Taoist primary skill 'Fate-Altering Technique' to align his fate with the sub-leader's!
Unless a third-tier Taoist was present, his true identity wouldn't be discovered!
'Fate-Altering Technique'.
A primary Taoist skill.
Without the 'Almighty' enhancement, it could only slightly alter one's fate.
At best, it could slightly increase the chances of guessing multiple-choice questions correctly.
And this skill couldn't be leveled up.
A completely useless skill.
But with 'Almighty' enhancement, it became extremely powerful!
[Fate-Altering Technique (B): Consumes mana to alter the fate of oneself or others, can alter fate for better or worse, or copy another's fate onto oneself.]
Notes:
This skill is unaffected by level, only by personal strength (meaning it cannot alter the fate of those stronger than oneself).
According to intelligence from the Dragon Kingdom.
Among the remnants in Black Rock Town, the three third-tier powerhouses were a Sword Saint, a Magic Emperor, and a Blood Lord.
The Sword Saint and Magic Emperor were traditional third-tier advancements for Swordsman and Mage classes.
Called traditional because these classes have other hidden third-tier advancements.
The Blood Lord was the third-tier advancement for Berserkers.
Since there were no third-tier Taoists stationed here.
Ling Zhan immediately devised his infiltration plan.
Of course, this was possible because he inherited the Demon Lord's demonic blood.
Otherwise, he couldn't even breach the Demonic Spirit Array.
The woman, brutally beaten by the remnants, was covered in wounds, her life hanging by a thread.
Yet she cried silently, not uttering a word.
Ling Zhan, smiling all the way, walked behind, seemingly indifferent to her life.
Luckily...
Just as the woman was about to die, they reached the hostage area.
A filthy, chaotic Black Rock mine.
In the mine.
Screams, sobs, cries, curses, and maniacal laughter echoed.
Upon entering.
Even Ling Zhan, with his cold heart, couldn't help but narrow his eyes!
Inside the mine.
All innocent hostages were tied and hung like livestock in the cave.
Men were beaten, tortured.
Women were stripped, abused.
Even the elderly and children didn't escape their clutches!
The cave was filled with wailing, dismembered limbs scattered everywhere...
Along with the piercing, maniacal laughter!
They raised whips and long knives, like devils from hell, venting their evil freely!
Hell on Earth!
"Heh heh! Brother Liu! The brothers couldn't wait!"
"The priests are here; we can torture these lowly humans to near death and heal them."
"We were ordered to do anything as long as we don't kill them!"
"Brother Liu, why don't you join..."
A remnant dragging the woman by her hair like a dead pig.
Grinning at 'Brother Liu'.
But...
Before he finished speaking.
Boom!!
His head exploded from a scorching fireball!
