I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 414: Chapter 357: Faceless Ones and Human Puppet Golem (Part 3)

At the critical moment, the Beastman barely twisted his body.

Splurt!​

Blood sprayed as the entire right arm of the Beastman masked man, with its claws, flew into the air. Thunderlight rushed into his body through the wound, halting his movements instantly.​

It’s now!​

Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Qin Tian vanished from the spot like a phantom, and in the next second, he appeared behind the Fire Mage.

Assassins first take out the squishy mage.

The soul mage sensed something was wrong and hurriedly launched a soul attack towards Qin Tian’s sea of consciousness, the sharp mental assault making his temples throb sharply.​

But Qin Tian endured the blow, reversing the Black Frost Blade for a horizontal slash.​

Thud!​

The Fire Mage’s head, with burning hair, rolled to the ground, but, strangely, no blood spurted out.

In the instant the Fire Mage was dealt with, the remaining Soul Mage, Poison Master, and Beastman trembled and quickly regrouped to confront Qin Tian.

Just as Qin Tian was about to pursue the victory and deal with these three, an extremely powerful presence suddenly swept in from outside the valley, more terrifying than the combined presence of the four masked men before.​

Qin Tian abruptly turned his head to the side, only to see a figure in a blood-red robe standing there at an unknown time, half a face exposed beneath the hood, pale as paper, playing with a spinning blood-red bead, its aura so chilling that the temperature of the entire valley dropped a few degrees.​

“I didn’t expect a big shark to break into my little valley~”

A slightly sharp voice echoed eerily within the valley.

Qin Tian’s gaze swept over the newcomer and then back to the decapitated body of the Fire Mage.

The cut on the neck was as smooth as a mirror, the edges encrusted with white frost frozen by the Black Frost Blade. Strangely, not a drop of blood flowed out, the muscle tissue at the wound solidified like wax.

Even more peculiar was that after the kill, he gained no evolution points or talent light spheres, something he had never encountered before.

Clearly, there was something wrong with this Fire Mage.

Thinking of this, Qin Tian willed it, and the steel mask tightly attached to the face was forcibly lifted, tearing the surface skin to reveal the bizarre “face” beneath.

Qin Tian looked closely, his pupils suddenly contracting.

Beneath the mask, there were no human features. Where eyes, nose, and mouth should have been, there was a smooth skin, not a wrinkle in sight, as if someone had smoothed it out, exuding an indescribable eeriness and horror.​

This was not the body of a living person!

At that moment, he suddenly recalled a detail: throughout the battle, none of the four masked men made any sound, not even a grunt when their arms were severed.

Now it all made sense.

“Heh heh, so you discovered it.”

The figure in the blood-red robe let out a deep, eerie laugh, raising a hand to remove the hood. A pale, narrow face was fully exposed to the air, with high cheekbones and deep-set eyes, narrow pupils glinting with a cold light, watching Qin Tian like a playful predator. The blood-red bead in his hand suddenly shone brightly, radiating an uncanny red glow.​

“Since the Human Puppet Golem has been discovered by you, you won’t be leaving today.”​

Before his words faded, an aura several times stronger than the four masked men before erupted like a tsunami, sweeping the entire valley. The boulders on the rock walls shook, and the ground beneath split with spiderweb-like cracks.​

This was a Peak Tier Six power.
