"Lawyer" Path Seal

Chapter 71 "Lawyer" Path Seal

The light from the burning sunflowers pierced the darkness of the basement. Hobart remembered that when he opened the basement door, he couldn't see inside even in the sunlight.

The burning of the sunflower, clearly symbolizing the realm of the sun, dispelled the darkness created by the sealed artifact.

Immediately, the effects of the sealing artifact began to appear, and Daly, who was originally at the front, suddenly appeared in the middle of the group.

At the same time, Hobart suddenly appeared at the bottom of the basement: "It feels like I'm riding an elevator!"

He picked up the sunflower and looked at the basement. The basement was very large, measuring seven or eight meters in length and width.

First, Hobart saw a stone platform in the center of the basement, on which sat a stone statue the size of a palm.

The stone statue looks very ancient, like a half-body human figure, but it doesn't have obvious facial features, so you can only roughly tell that it is a half-body human figure.

Seeing the stone statue, one could feel a surging, twisted power, and Hobert suddenly felt that its aura was very familiar.

Looking at other places, there was feces and chicken feathers left by the giant dog.

However, the droppings and chicken feathers were all more than half a meter away from the stone platform, and the area around the stone platform was clean and tidy.

This was very unusual, so Hobart stood aside, not intending to be at the forefront.

Daly and Scarface, who arrived later, also realized this was abnormal, but for now they could only rely on this sealed artifact with unknown abilities to deal with the undead and Little Henry behind them.

At this moment, the zombies had already rushed into the basement. The scarred man gritted his teeth and strode towards the stone platform.

But when he was about half a meter away from the stone platform, he suddenly appeared on the other side of the platform.

All three were taken aback. Then the scarred man turned around and went back to the stone platform. When he was still half a meter away, he reappeared on the left side of the stone platform.

Dai Li also tried, but the result was the same; she couldn't even get within half a meter of the stone platform.

At the same time, they must be careful to deal with random changes in position. Currently, random changes in position are advantageous to them, as they can cause the zombies to lose their target and freeze in place for a second or two.

Otherwise, there would be no way to deal with Little Henry and the zombies in the cramped basement.

Hobert, who had been observing from the sidelines, felt increasingly that the sealed object was very familiar to him.

Furthermore, Daly and Scarface may not have noticed that when they first entered the basement, after Hobert was moved from the steps to the bottom of the basement by the power of the sealed object, his position did not change randomly again.

So, as Daly and Little Henry fought for control of the two undead, and Scarface attacked Little Henry with a pistol, Hobart walked step by step toward the stone platform.

Three meters, two meters, one meter, half a meter, and then Hobert took another step forward and arrived in front of the stone platform.

Dai Li and the scarred man exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise on each other's faces.

Hobart reached out to touch the statue, and suddenly he saw blue sky and white clouds, he saw the ancient town at the foot of the mountain, he saw the tall clock tower, and he saw the stone throne on the mountaintop!

That's a "country in chaos"!

But it was a "disorderly country" where everything was normal, with blue skies and white clouds in the sky, night and day in perfect order, and forests and clock towers on the ground.

"So that's it," Hobart realized. No wonder the stone felt so familiar; it came from the "Land of Chaos."

But how did it leave the "Land of Chaos"? And what did it go through to acquire such strange abilities?

Because of Hobart's special connection with the "Land of Chaos," the statue resonated with him and did not reject him.

The moment Hobert picked up the stone statue, his spirituality immediately sensed the power of this sealed artifact: firstly, it could create a dark area within a seven-meter radius, within which the holder could deprive the enemy of sight and inspiration.

Secondly, the holder can manipulate the space within a ten-meter range at will, and can also make certain distortions, such as changing enemies that were originally moving forward to moving backward, or changing enemies that were originally running away to charging.

Third, it can create a spatial distortion zone within half a meter around the holder, preventing enemies from getting close to the holder.

The negative effects are: every twenty minutes of use, the holder's soul and body will be completely distorted once, up to a maximum of two times, causing complete mental disorder; and up to a maximum of three times, causing complete physical collapse. If this sealed object is used by an extraordinary individual who is not a "lawyer" or "arbitrator," there is a certain probability that the sealed object will betray the holder.

The sealing method is as follows: using the "Twisting" ability of the "Lawyer" pathway, the limited will of the sealed object must be distorted. This "distortion" must be performed once every three days; otherwise, it will be difficult to enter within half a meter of the sealed object. If the will of the sealed object is not "distorted" within three days, the "Weakening" or "Twisting" ability of the "Middle Sequence" must be used to have a chance to regain control of the sealed object.

Hobart thought to himself: This is a seal artifact made specifically for the "lawyer" path! No wonder the Henry family, now down to just three members, can still wield this powerful seal artifact.

"Hobert!" The scarred man's shout brought Hobert back to his senses.

By this time, Henry had already made his way to the basement, and the aura of death emanating from him collided with the distorted aura of the sealed artifact.

The two zombies, already riddled with bullets by the scarred man and missing limbs, continued to charge towards them.

As Little Henry drew nearer, Daly's face turned deathly pale, and it became increasingly difficult to stop the zombies' movements.

Hobert held the sealed artifact in both hands, and instantly moved the two zombies into the soil of the basement, leaving only their heads sticking out.

They shook their heads, trying to escape, but to no avail.

Then Hobart looked at little Henry, wanting to trap him in the soil as well, but it seemed to encounter a tremendous resistance, and little Henry's eyes became even deeper and more terrifying.

Dai Li, who was in the same group, even had the urge to crawl on the ground.

In the end, the sealed artifact prevailed. Little Henry's original intention to attack turned into defense, and his original intention to unleash more power turned into the intention to reduce the power.

Henry, who was not very intelligent, gradually developed cloudy eyes after Hobart repeatedly twisted his thoughts and powers, and eventually collapsed to the ground, motionless.

Hobert used the sealing artifact to move little Henry, who was lying on the ground, to within half a meter of himself, confirming that the power in the other's body had completely disappeared.

He said, "I'm curious, when I encountered Little Henry before, why did it just seem like an ordinary zombie?"

After examining little Henry's body, Daly said, "That terrifying power wasn't originally in little Henry's body. It was after I performed a psychic ritual that his body underwent some changes, attracting some attention."

She shook her head: "This must be a ritual that little Henry's parents kept performing on him, making some mysterious entity happy to bestow power upon little Henry."

In other words, through the efforts of Henry and his wife, they transformed little Henry's body into a sealed artifact that could easily attract the attention and descent of powerful beings through the "Grim Reaper" pathway!
