Chapter 136: Guiding Gaze Spell

Chapter 136: Guiding Gaze Spell

At this moment, Jigu, having just narrated the "love-hate entanglements" with Elder Ghoul, stood like a statue, unmoving and silent. His gaze was vacant, as if his soul had already departed.

Liu Xing nodded, acknowledging the late hour. "Alright, let's discuss how to lift Jigu from the controlled state."

With the assurance that Elder Ghoul wouldn't launch a strong attack, Liu Xing felt a sense of relief, willing to continue gambling with Nyarlathotep.

"I have a spell that can keep someone conscious. I'm not sure if it will work on Jigu's current condition, considering Elder Ghoul's abilities surpass mine," Ji Wu, the "expert" in this matter, was the first to speak up.

Zhu Yan Yu then took a small bottle from her pocket. "I have pills here that can keep someone awake. I believe these can enhance the success rate of your spell, Ji Wu."

Ji Wu nodded, accepting the small bottle from Zhu Yan Yu.

"Alright, I'll go convince Miss Silvia to support our actions. Dealing with someone like Caesar is not going to be easy," Ai Mei said, breaking the silence.

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow. Caesar stood beside Jigu like a loyal guardian.

However, appearances could be deceiving. Liu Xing maliciously believed that Caesar, as the current deputy leader of Jigu's team, was the one most eager to see Jigu "merge" with Elder Ghoul. With Jigu out of the picture, Caesar could naturally ascend to the top, reaping many benefits.

Therefore, Liu Xing thought that Caesar standing by Jigu's side wasn't for Jigu's protection but to prevent others from approaching him.

"No time to waste, let's go." Liu Xing nodded, and the group approached Jigu.

At that moment, Komatsu approached and said, "There are over a hundred Ghouls outside now. Even if half of them are old, weak, or sick, there are still more than fifty robust Ghouls, along with a Ghoul Elder of unknown strength. Many might choose to turn a blind eye and hand Jigu over to the Ghoul Elder, especially those on Jigu's side. From what I know, Jigu's role in the team is dispensable. He rarely handles things and leaves the team's affairs to Caesar. So, your idea is practically impossible."

Komatsu's words left the group momentarily speechless; after all, his reasoning was sound. But then again, how did Komatsu get here?

Liu Xing heard Ai Mei initiating contact with KP Luo Luo for persuasion.

Ai Mei, 43/80, success.

Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief; at least now Silvia was on their side, securing about half of the support.

After a while, Ai Mei approached and said, "Miss Silvia has agreed to fully support us. Now, we just need to deal with the issue of Caesar."

Liu Xing shrugged, relaying the group's earlier discussion to Ai Mei.

Ai Mei furrowed her brows and said, "That's a troublesome situation. If Caesar refuses our help in lifting Jigu from the controlled state, we're left with only one option. The others will block Caesar and his group, and Ji Wu, if everything is okay on your end, you'll cast the spell on Jigu forcefully, trying to bring him back to consciousness."

Ji Wu nodded, confirming his readiness.

However, Liu Xing suddenly remembered a crucial point and asked Ji Wu, "Ji Wu, what's the success rate of your spell under the current circumstances?"

"In the current situation, barring any unforeseen circumstances, I have about a sixty percent chance of bringing Jigu back to consciousness. If Zhu Yan Yu's pills have any effect, I can increase that by another twenty percent," Ji Wu confidently stated.
