**Chapter 1071: The Second Puppet, Instant Kill**
Lin Moyu put away the Starfire Jade Bottle and looked into the depths of the starry sky. "The laws here are very clear. And there is a strange energy that seems to accelerate the comprehension of laws."
Over the past two days, Lin Moyu felt that his strength had increased slightly. His soul power naturally increased, and his comprehension of the Undead Law seemed to have deepened as well.
This feeling was strange. Although he didn't deliberately try to comprehend the law, he kept having realizations and his understanding of the law gradually deepened. It was as if those insights were forcefully stuffed into him. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
However, Lin Moyu also realized that if others experienced the same thing, it could explain why people would come to the battlefield when they couldn't break through. Although the battlefield was dangerous, it did increase the chances of breaking through.
Lin Moyu knew the phenomenon but not the reason behind it. Fundamentally, it was because his own strength and insight were not enough.
In the starry sky, the resurrected Black Lizard clansman was fleeing in panic. Behind him, a dark star that was almost invisible to the naked eye was frantically chasing him.
Through the connection with the resurrected being, Lin Moyu could sense his location and state.
"Oh, he's actually being chased!"
The resurrected being was injured, and quite severely. Half of his scales were shattered.
With his strength and stealth abilities, he should have been able to walk freely in Area 5-38, or at least defend himself without issue.
Lin Moyu's order to him was just to pretend to be defeated and lure other races over, not to actually get injured.
It wasn't until Lin Moyu saw the "dark star" chasing him that he understood what was happening.
The pursuer was not an actual "dark star", but a member of the Black Profound Race.
He had seen the Black Profound Race in the virtual secret realm of the Human Sovereign Network before and had killed many of them.
But the virtual world was just virtual after all, and there were bound to be differences from the real world.
Members of the Black Profound Race blended perfectly into the battlefield, as their bodies were naturally dark. Normally, they would curl up into a ball, making them indistinguishable from small asteroids in the starry sky.
Especially in this pitch-black area of the battlefield, they were extremely similar to dark stars.
The Black Profound Race had extremely powerful defenses. Lin Moyu guessed that his resurrected being must have failed in his sneak attack and was almost killed by the Black Profound clansman.
The Black Profound clansman in front of him was emanating the aura of a True God seventh rank, but his defenses had likely reached the eighth rank of True God.
In the True God realm, a single rank difference could lead to a huge gap.
The resurrected being could instantly unleash the attack power of a True God seventh rank, but he was definitely no match for this Black Profound clansman.
Following Lin Moyu's orders, the resurrected being changed directions and fled towards Lin Moyu.
The Black Profound clansman also noticed Lin Moyu and curled up into a ball, shooting directly at him like a meteor.
Lin Moyu even heard his mocking laughter.
"Not bad, you'll be my second puppet."
Lin Moyu chuckled softly and flicked his finger.
Fusion Spell: Time Curse!
A red light fell, and the Black Profound clansman immediately let out a scream of pain.
The entire "small asteroid" violently shook, and the momentum of his charge was greatly reduced.
Although the Black Profound clansman had at least the strength of a True God seventh rank, Lin Moyu knew that the Time Curse spell alone would not be enough to kill him.
But the soul attack was enough to slow down his charge.
As expected, a large group of skeletons appeared, swinging their bone swords and unleashing a barrage of sword qi.
The sword qi woven together like a net, enveloping the Black Profound clansman.
The sword qi slashed through, and the Black Profound clansman's body was cut into quarters, unable to even let out a scream before being shattered into pieces.
A ball of flame flew out and landed on the shattered remains of the Black Profound clansman.
Stellar-level Spell: Resurrection of the Dead!
In the flames, the already dead remains were reborn with flesh and blood, and his soul reappeared.
In the blink of an eye, he was kneeling alive in front of Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu looked at his appearance. His body was somewhat similar to a human's, but he had a tail.
His head looked like a flattened lizard, extremely strange.
His entire body was covered in black scales that could absorb light, allowing him to blend in with his surroundings.
If relying only on the naked eye, it would be difficult to detect his presence even at close range.
Lin Moyu asked, "What race are you? What is your strength?"
"I am from the Black Profound Clan, True God seventh rank," he replied, kneeling on the ground without raising his head, speaking in a low voice.
After becoming a resurrected being, Lin Moyu's words were commands.
A True God seventh rank, capable of instantly unleashing the attack power of a True God eighth rank.
Moreover, the Black Profound Clan could change their color, making their hiding ability outstanding, suitable for ambushes here.
Although slightly inferior to the Shadow Clan, it was already quite good.
If the timing was right, it could potentially kill a True God eighth rank.
Lin Moyu quickly analyzed his strength and said in a low voice, "Leave your storage ring, go find races other than the human race, ambush them, pretend to be defeated, and lure them to me."
"Yes, master!"
He immediately obeyed and left, his color changing, disappearing into the darkness.
If it weren't for Lin Moyu's ability to sense the presence of resurrected beings, it would indeed be difficult to detect his presence with the naked eye.
Unfortunately, before this, it couldn't escape the eyes of the skeletons.
Before it got close, the skeletons had already detected its presence. Lin Moyu had long set a trap, waiting for it to come in.
"With the first puppet, there should be more puppets in the future."
This was Lin Moyu's initial strategy.
He could directly use the skeletons to attack, but that would be too conspicuous. It might be effective at first, but it wouldn't be sustainable.
The effect would be far less than using other races to lure people over.
Lin Moyu was not in a hurry; he still needed to find Stellar Essence Fire.
The mission's target was ten Stellar Essence Fires, but Lin Moyu's goal was far beyond that.
Stellar Essence Fire could be sold for money, with each one worth at least several thousand points.
Moreover, he still needed to find aliens.
Before coming here, he had spent 5 million points, and Lin Moyu planned to earn it all back on the battlefield.
Ten minutes later, the Stellar Essence Fire in front of him was collected, and the Starfire Jade Bottle contained another flame.
The Starfire Jade Bottle was a special magic treasure specifically for collecting flames, capable of holding a large amount of fire.
A thousand Stellar Essence Fires could be stored without any problem.
With the Stellar Essence Fire gone, the starry sky became dark again.
Lin Moyu took out the newly obtained storage ring. The storage ring looked different from those of the human race, but its function was almost the same, and the usage method was no different.
The previous owner of the storage ring was dead, and the soul imprint on the ring had disappeared, making it an ownerless item. Lin Moyu easily opened the ring with a thought.
The space inside the ring was not small, filled with a lot of miscellaneous items, most of which were alien objects that Lin Moyu didn't recognize.
There were a few magic treasures that didn't seem to belong to the Black Lizard Clan, likely spoils of war. Many aliens must have died at its hands.
After rummaging through the items, Lin Moyu found something similar to the Starfire Jade Bottle.
This bottle was used by aliens to store Stellar Essence Fire, containing three Stellar Essence Fires.
Lin Moyu didn't hesitate to take them all, completing half of the mission in an instant.
"Indeed, killing and looting is the fastest way to make money."
Lin Moyu said softly, putting away the ring.
As for the value of the items inside, he would let the trading center's appraisers estimate it later; he couldn't be bothered to calculate it himself.
He glanced at the Warning Pearl on his waist, finding it somewhat useful, though its effectiveness was limited against well-prepared assassinations.
The Warning Pearl hung on the left side of his waist, while a specially made iron plate hung on the right side.
The iron plate was called a battlefield plate, given to everyone who came to the battlefield.
This plate recorded the number of aliens killed on the battlefield.
When leaving the battlefield, a unified settlement would be conducted.
The battlefield plate was linked to the Human Sovereign Network, making cheating impossible.
Cultivators didn't need to pay attention to it; it would automatically settle when leaving the battlefield.
In the battlefield, the presence of the Human Sovereign Network was very weak, so such iron plates were needed for recording.
In the human territory, such trouble was unnecessary, as the Human Sovereign Network could record everything.
Continuing to fly deeper into the war zone, occasional faint lights flickered in the dark starry sky.
These faint lights indicated the presence of Stellar Essence Fire.
Stellar Essence Fire was scarce, and Lin Moyu had been here for two days.
After collecting the first Stellar Essence Fire, he had no further gains.
Lin Moyu had to continue deeper, as the probability of encountering Stellar Essence Fire increased the deeper he went.
Two more days passed, and Lin Moyu found another Stellar Essence Fire, successfully collecting it.
During these two days, no aliens came to harass him.
Lin Moyu knew he was still on the periphery. As he continued deeper, he would inevitably encounter alien warriors.
