The sound was not made from somewhere around them. If you insist on saying it, it surrounds this black pine forest.

Cheng Ran raised his attention. He was alert to Deng Weichao's things, and at the same time tried to find the master of the voice.

"Are you looking for me?"

As if he had spyed on his thoughts, his voice suddenly focused.

The soil between Cheng Ran and Deng Weichao suddenly showed signs of cracks. One by one, the structure was clearly painted black, and things like branches poked out from the cracks, tangled together like silk threads, forming the shape of a human body. The next moment... they turned into a naked girl with long black hair.

The girl's skin was as white as snow, her long hair was scattered on the ground like night, and her figure was thin and small, as if it were a fruit born from the branches.

The black branches tied on the ground withered and dissipated, and the girl's jade feet gently fell down. Then she opened her eyes, which were dark and deep as if they could suck a human soul into it, making people unable to help but feel fearful.

The moment she gently tapped the ground with her toes, it seemed that there were invisible ripples fainted in all directions. Then in the blink of an eye, the black pine leaves blew along the wind and fell on the girl's naked body. The structure quietly changed, forming a pitch-black princess long skirt.

She looked at Cheng Ran's stiff face, but showed a sweet smile.

Obviously, he looked at his appearance, he was just an ordinary and cute human girl, but Cheng Ran was nailed to the spot as if he had been imposed on a fixed posture, and could not breathe in pain.

"The pollution index is rising, and the current pollution index is 5."

"The pollution index is rising, and the current pollution index is 6."

...

"The pollution index is rising, and the current pollution index is 10."

He had just completed a usurpation of divine power, but Cheng Ran's pollution index began to rise sharply again.

There is no doubt that the seemingly harmless girl in front of her is the culprit that caused her pollution index to rise sharply.

The moment the girl's voice sounded, Deng Weichao's face turned pale. In order to prevent the system prompts from affecting the battle, his pollution index will only be prompted after reaching the cordon. It was not until this moment that he realized something was wrong.

The moment the girl appeared completely, Deng Wei was moved.

He gave up the assassination mission without hesitation, and his figure quickly disappeared transparently. It was the signature skill of the Assassin's pre-professional stalker, stealth!

The girl who appeared in front of Cheng Ran, clearly facing Cheng Ran, instantly noticed Deng Weichao's intention, and the smile on her face quickly disappeared. She turned around and reached out to the empty position and gently grabbed it-

The black pine trees around them suddenly stretched out their torso, and their empty eyes, nose and mouth grew, as if they were suddenly given a soul.

They tilted their bodies one after another, and the branches poked out like arms. The branches of dozens of black pine trees suddenly extended out more than ten meters, and then pierced through the air with a thud, breaking Deng Weichao's stealth state. The precise hit seemed to have nowhere to hide in her eyes from the beginning.

"Damn it!"

Deng Weichao whispered, waved his sleeve sword to cut off the branches that penetrated his chest. Only the branches that penetrated his chest were as thick as the size of his fist. Although it was unbearable, Deng Weichao gritted his teeth and launched a shadow attack, flashing behind the woman's back, took out a pitch-black metal baseball bat from the storage space and smashed it at the back of the girl's head.

This attack comes with the stalker's professional skill "spray". He does not want to kill the opponent, but only wants to make him dizzy for a short time, so that he will have a chance to escape. He believes that even the owner of this dark forest will inevitably be temporarily controlled after taking a disturbance.

However, just as the bat was about to hit, a slight sound suddenly came from the wound in his chest, and then countless black branches as small as silk thread broke out from his chest and even the surrounding muscles, growing rapidly. Then these branches extended and plunged into the ground, setting Deng Weichao's figure trying to approach the girl in mid-air.

Deng Weichao felt that the vitality in his body seemed to be taken away by half of the branches left in his body, and his body stiffened and could not move.

The next moment, countless black branches pierced Deng Weichao's abdomen, shoulders, arms, and thighs, lifted them high and reached the position directly in front of the girl before stopping.

Deng Weichao struggled in pain, but there was no possibility of breaking free. All this happened in just two seconds.

Cheng Ran looked at the powerful man who easily cut off his limbs a few seconds ago and could take his life at any time and turned into the current tragic situation. Not only did he not feel gloating, but he felt a bone-broken chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

The girl looked at Deng Weichao and said coldly: "Don't you think it's very rude to suddenly escape while someone is talking?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a black branch on the left that was inserted on Deng Weichao's shoulder suddenly exerted force and directly pulled out Deng Weichao's left arm.

"Ga!!!" His arm was torn apart, and even Deng Weichao let out a depressing scream of pain. The reason for suppressing his voice was because he knew very well what it meant to make an overly sharp scream in front of the girl.

"Damn it, damn it!"

Deng Weichao screamed in his heart. After these black branches broke through his body and drilled out, fear grew in his heart uncontrollably. And when human will collapsed, it was also the source of pollution that invaded in one fell swoop.

"The pollution index is rising, and the current pollution index is 80, which has reached the warning line."

With this prompt, Deng Weichao was shocked to realize that the pollution index was soaring rapidly at an extremely abnormal speed.

"What's going on? I obviously took the potion, why did the pollution index rise so quickly!?" The branch suddenly appeared in his mind that had entered his chest and seized his vitality, and his pupils tightened: "Is that!? There are seeds of this monster hidden inside!?"

He forced himself to suppress his fear of death, and with the existence of resistance potions, he barely curbed the trend of complete degeneration. As a superior professional of lv13, his self-regulation ability is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Even though his light glimpse of his remaining right hand gradually darkened, his skin seemed to be transforming into the dead bark, and he forced it out of his mind.

After the pollution reaches the 80th warning line, the pollution caused by humans will be directly reflected on the body. The reason why Cheng Ran has never seen such a situation before is very simple. Most of the degeneration he witnessed occurred in slave companions during the slave period. These slaves experienced too much spiritual and physical torture, and their mental will was on the verge of collapse. Once the warning line is broken, it will not last long, and he himself will not be affected by pollution. Naturally, he has never noticed this abnormality - until this moment.

"Is this... degenerate?" Cheng Ran's pupils tightened, and the lv13 player instantly degenerated in front of his eyes?

Unspeakable fear climbed up Cheng Ran's back, and his body instinctively wanted to escape, but he restrained this idea with his strong will. Deng Weichao had already made a wrong demonstration of this option just now. Escape rashly would only cause the girl's unhappiness and reincarnation in advance. So... what should I do? Is there any way to survive this monster!?

The girl admired Deng Weichao's painful expression, her lips curled up slightly, and suddenly remembered something, turned to look at Cheng Ran, and said softly: "By the way, I almost forgot that you still have. I rushed into my territory without authorization, and I should have been ready to die here, right?"

Cheng Ran was still thinking, and the black root-like object had already jumped out of the ground and poked straight towards him. The speed completely exceeded Cheng Ran's reaction range. Even though he had already reacted in advance when he heard the girl's voice, Cheng Ran knew very well that this must be useless.

Puchi--.

Cheng Ran was penetrated on the spot without any accident. When the pain was blocked, he felt the feeling of his feet hanging from the ground. He widened his eyes and looked at the thick black cylindrical object on his chest. His heart was empty, and a sweet feeling suddenly surged in his throat. When he came to his senses, he had already spit out a mouthful of blood.

With a puff, the branches that pierced through his chest were quickly retracted. Cheng Ran, who had just been forced to hang in the air by the branches, fell to the ground like a pool of mud.

Feeling the gradually cold limbs, Cheng Ran knew that he could no longer hesitate, and immediately shouted in his heart: "Super regeneration!"

The lost right arm and left palm quickly grew out, and the abdomen also squirmed and repaired. At the chest, he felt a huge resistance.

"The pollution index is rising, and the current pollution index is 80, which has reached the warning line."

"The duration of the skill potential explosion ends, enters a weak state, with all attributes -50%"

Two prompts popped up in my mind at the same time, and a strong sense of weakness followed.

Just like an athlete using hormones, after a strong excitement, a huge rebound followed. Cheng Ran felt that not only his body, but his own spirit was also extremely weak. When he opened the attribute panel, he saw that except for the will column, there was still a dazzling yellow light, the other attributes turned into red debuffs.

Logically speaking, weakness should be a debuff for all attributes. However, Cheng Ran discovered a long time ago, as if the hidden power of the robber's talent was protecting his will. In any case, his will attribute has not been reduced.

"You are indeed amazing. You are so weak, but you have such tenacious vitality."

It seemed that he could still notice that Cheng Ran's breath was still there. The girl's jade feet stepped on the pitch-black soil, and for some reason it was not stained with any filth. She walked in front of him, and then suddenly burst out from the ground, wrapping between Cheng Ran's chest and abdomen, lifting it up.

"The pollution index is rising, the current pollution index is 100, and the pollution index has reached 100%.

“Automatically consume all pollution indexes—”

“Please select.”

"1 Improve the existing divine power genealogy skills."

"2 Unlock the skill ‘overlord aura’ (level d)."

In a quick glance, the so-called overlord aura is a abilities similar to the domineering nature of the "Sea X King", which can be said to be of no help to the current situation.
