Did sothing to the stone statues?
"Do you know how those creatures were turned into stone statues?" Changyin asked them with a smile.
"... Isn’t it your ability?" Wen Guixin speculated, "Hmm... when you touch them, they petrify?"
"... There’s no such convenient ability, to petrify just by touching." Changyin shook his head helplessly.
Those around exchanged glances and then burst into laughter.
"Brother, there really is such a convenient ability." Wang Lei pointed to Wen Guixin, "Her ability is just that convenient, those hairy creatures in the prison died because they touched her."
"... What?" Changyin looked puzzled, "What do you an?"
"Ah, my ability is indeed very convenient, just a bit... too convenient." Wen Guixin rubbed her temples, showing a slight distress.
"Your ability?" Changyin looked around at the others, sowhat astonished, "You all wouldn’t happen to have special abilities, would you?"
At this mont, Ji Chaoyang, who had been silent before, spoke up, "Alright, our abilities and your matters below, we’ll talk about them later. Let him finish first. So, how did you petrify those creatures?"
Xu Xin has also been watching Changyin.
In his heart, he had already inferred so information, but he wasn’t quite sure.
"You all seem more mysterious than ," Changyin shook his head and said, "Actually, it’s very simple. I researched a potion that, once it contacts a creature’s body, will cause active petrification."
"It’s just that... I added so ingredients to certain potions."
"And these ingredients can make these petrified creatures subject to my control. Although I can’t fully control them, I can sowhat influence their actions."
"Are there such ingredients?" Wang Lei curiously asked, "What ingredients?"
"That’s a secret." Changyin smiled faintly, not revealing it.
"Actually, it’s quite easy to guess, isn’t it?" Wen Guixin spoke up, raising her eyebrows and sizing up Changyin’s stony body, "The connection to others and yourself... isn’t it just the stone powder shaved off from you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Changyin.
That seems quite possible!
Xu Xin also recalled what had happened when they shattered those stone creature statues.
As long as they didn’t attack their weak points or directly smash them apart, even piercing their heads wouldn’t have much effect; they would keep repairing themselves.
They are terrifying war machines.
And Changyin, as the creator of these statues, should have similar capabilities.
Taking so powder off himself, or even chopping an arm off, probably wouldn’t be a big deal.
After all, he can recover.
Changyin showed a sowhat subtle expression, "Hmm... you did guess part of it right, but it’s connected to the potion’s petrification ability, not to control. Regarding the control aspect, I think Xu Xin should be able to figure it out?"
He said this while looking at Xu Xin, then glancing at Lou Fei’Er beside him.
"? Oh..." Xu Xin raised his eyebrows slightly as well.
Lou Fei’Er blinked in confusion when Changyin looked at her.
But associating it with what he just said, she suddenly understood and exclaid, "Ah! I rember, the contract Xu Xin made sign! That contract was made by you!"
Xu Xin also realized.
The Mutant Beast Contract had the ability to contract other mutant creatures and control them.
He also rembered that in his backpack, he had an upgraded version of the Mutant Beast Contract that could contract interdiate mutant creatures, obtained from the treasure chest monster’s stomach.
This guy, Changyin, must have been researching this thing all this ti, right?
Embedding so attributes of the Mutant Beast Contract in the petrifying potion, allowing him to control the petrified creatures...
With Changyin’s thods, this should be sothing easily achievable.
Ji Chaoyang also seed deep in thought.
"What? What can Brother Xin figure out?" Wang Lei seed confused.
Changyin didn’t continue the topic but went on, "Besides, I also implanted a small thing in the eyes of a few special stone statues."
Implanted sothing in their eyes?
"These tiny things can transmit what they see back underground," Changyin continued to explain.
"... So, you can see through their eyes... what those statues see?" Xu Xin imdiately asked.
"Exactly." Changyin nodded in confirmation. "This way, even if those statues aren’t by my side, I can see their situation through the scenes and influence their actions."
Is that... so!
Xu Xin’s previously furrowed brows loosened.
No wonder!
No wonder back at the edge of the Transmission Array’s huge pit, that dragon statue’s gaze was always on them.
And after Xiaohong was released, this dragon statue’s attention was all on Xiaohong.
"Ah, I understand!" Lou Fei’Er exclaid, clapping her hands, "That dragon was under your control! The dragon attacking my treehouse was also controlled by you! No wonder it wasn’t hostile to Xu Xin and kept trying to take Xiaohong away, it was you!"
