Suicide Sealing Artifact

Chapter 63 Suicide Sealing Artifact

The "spirit," with its long arms and tongue, moved incredibly fast, and Hobart realized he couldn't escape in time.

However, the abilities of the "psychic necklace" and the "lawyer" also made him quickly discover that the spirit's weakness was its fear of water.

water!

There's water on that table over there!

But it was too late. It had already raised its long arms, which transformed into scythes, like the Grim Reaper, ready to reap lives.

Hehe~

In desperation, Hobart spat at the other person.

Then, under Hobart's spiritual vision, a very comical scene unfolded: the menacing spirit carefully avoided the saliva on the ground.

It looked as if there was a landmine in front of it, and it had to carefully avoid it.

Although Hugh and Upton's vision couldn't see all of this clearly, their spiritual senses could also perceive that the danger seemed to have suddenly stopped.

Upton looked incredulous: "Damn it, this is the first time I've ever seen holy water like this."

At this moment, the spirit had already bypassed Hobert's saliva, so Hobert quickly spat out another mouthful, the spirit bypassed it again, and Hobert spat out again.

So the fight turned into Hugh and Upton watching Hobart spit on the ground.

Soon Hobart's mouth was dry from spitting, and he shouted to Hugh, "Spit towards two o'clock!"

Hugh keenly realized that saliva could ward off unseen dangers. However, although she was usually carefree, she was still a girl after all, and she had basic modesty.

Hobert had no choice but to gather a little more saliva and spit it at the "long-armed spirit," once again blocking its advance: "Hurry up, I really don't have any more!"

Hugh quickly spat in the direction of two o'clock. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hobert took a few quick steps, picked up the water glass on the table, and splashed the half-full glass of water at the "long-armed spirit".

Call ~

After a mournful howl, the "Long-Armed Spirit" vanished without a trace.

Upton began to gather the last of his spiritual energy: "This isn't over yet!"

Having broken free from the fight, Hobart finally had a chance to draw his gun and point it at Upton, shouting hoarsely, "We're not some damn Tamara family! If you use any more sealed artifacts or magical items, I'll shoot you dead!"

Upton was spiritually exhausted; his face was even paler than before. He gasped for breath before asking, "Then who are you?"

Hobart commanded, "Hands up!"

Upton clearly didn't want to die, so he quickly raised his hands.

Hugh instinctively searched him and found a glittering strand of hair on Upton's arm.

"This is a sealed artifact," Hobart said, handing Hugh the gloves he had prepared beforehand. "Don't touch the hair directly."

Hugh nodded, put on gloves, took off her shimmering hair, and placed it on the table.

Hobart repeated his old trick, pointing a gun at Upton with one hand while taking out his medicine bottles one by one from his pocket with the other.

He asked, "Have you ever heard of psychic abilities?"

"I've heard of it." Upton had a bad feeling.

"I'm sorry," Hobart apologized sincerely. "Interrogating you is too much trouble, and I also have to verify the authenticity of your answers, so I will communicate directly with the spirits to get the answers I want."

"But you are a living being. Psychic communication will completely disrupt your thoughts and logic. After I get the answer, you will become a person with the intelligence of a two or three-year-old."

"I feel deeply sorry for this."

Upton's face drained of color instantly: "Wait, wait, wait! You haven't even asked yet, how do you know I won't tell the truth?"

Judging from Upton's reaction, he doesn't seem to be a very knowledgeable extraordinary person, because anyone who has ever witnessed psychic abilities, or had someone explain complete psychic knowledge to him, should know that Hobart's words are half true and half false.

Given Hobart's current spiritual and mental strength, he dares not communicate with living people, as the vast amount of information contained in their spirits would severely impact his mental body.

The most likely outcome is that the world will have two more lunatics.

"Alright then," Hobart said. "Let me ask you the first question: where do your potion recipes and main ingredients come from?"

"As you just saw, I can communicate with the spirit world and defeat the spirits you summoned. I can also perform divination. If you are lying, I will immediately switch to using psychic methods to ask you questions."

Upton quickly said, "My potion recipes and main ingredients come from the Tamara family! I promise, I will tell the truth."

Hobart had never tried using the "psychic necklace" for divination, but theoretically, since the "psychic necklace" could enhance the wearer's intuition, it should also allow the wearer to perform divination-like operations.

Of course, Hobart couldn't use complex divination methods like "dream divination" like a fortune teller, but he could still divine simple right and wrong.

He closed his eyes and silently repeated in his mind, "Upton is lying."

Upton is lying.

"..."

After silently repeating the mantra seven times, Hobart straightened his cane and then gently released it. If the cane tilted forward, it meant Upton was lying; if it tilted backward, it meant Upton was not lying.

Seeing that the cane was tilting backward, Hobart smiled and said, "Very good, I hope you'll continue to tell the truth. Second question: What power did the sealing artifact you just used have? What were its negative effects? Where did it come from?"

Upton was taken aback by Hobart's divination and quickly abandoned the idea of ​​lying: "This sealed artifact is called 'The Astrologer's Hair,' and Father said it came from an out-of-control 'astrologer.'"

"It has two abilities. One is that it can vaguely sense dangers that will occur within 6 hours. The other is that it can open a door to the spirit world. There may be nothing behind the door, but there is a high probability that a 'spirit' with unknown purpose and abilities will appear. This spirit will attack indiscriminately, regardless of whether it is friend or foe."

"The negative effect is that the wearer is easily attracted to the attention of certain beings in the spirit world; if used for more than an hour, the wearer will merge into the spirit world and will never be able to return to the real world."

Hobert thought to himself: No wonder he knew we were coming to attack him; it was the power of this sealed artifact. But this power and its negative effects sound a lot like a "suicide sealed artifact"!

A spirit that attacks indiscriminately, friend or foe; certain gazes from the spirit world; never to return to the real world.

Both its capabilities and negative effects are quite frightening.

Upton continued, "This sealed artifact was brought from the Tamara family by my father."

Hobert was taken aback: "What is your family's relationship with the Tamara family?"

It seems they are both enemies and able to bring out sealed artifacts from the Tamara family.

Upton smiled wryly, "I am a member of the Tamara family, but my father has been trying to break away from the Tamara family since I was a child."

Why leave?

"My father said that something was wrong with the 'high-sequence' powerhouses in the family, as if they had been corrupted by some secret."
