Chaos Lord: Infinite Guidance

Chapter 49 Crazy Click on the Mysterious Scarecrow

On the half-walled city wall, a mysterious scarecrow danced with its tentacles, while Bandhu slept soundly with its eyes closed.

"Tiger, hey, Tiger, wake up! The lord is calling you!"

Audron heard Wang Jue's shout and kindly went to call Bandhu, but Bandhu was fast asleep and didn't respond. Audron slapped him twice, and this time Bandhu woke up, groggily asking, "What's going on?"

"Brother Tiger, the lord is calling you to the Time Travel Bookstore!"

What does "crossing over to the bookstore" mean?

"The main hall behind the bookstore is right there, hurry up!"

"When did a grand hall build this? Wow, it's like a royal palace! So magnificent! I'm going to take a look!"

Bandhu then controlled the mysterious scarecrow to head towards the trans-bookstore behind it.

At this moment, Wang Jue was checking Mad Dog King's information panel.

"This mad dog king is a bit of an oddball..."

Wang Jue sighed silently, very curious about the actual performance of the [Great Sun Divine Skill].

Before long, Bandhu, controlling the mysterious scarecrow, hopped into the transmigration bookstore. His eyes darted around, and he exclaimed, "Good heavens, this is really grand! Lord, why don't you get a dragon throne?"

"I don't have time to waste on your nonsense."

Wang Jue had previously used 800 points of soul power to guide Mad Dog Turtle, and now he had 2200 points left. He then selected the Mysterious Scarecrow as his target and used [Infinite Guidance] again, and his body immediately lit up with light.

"Mysterious Scarecrow, listen to me. If you want to grow steadily, why not grow more tentacles, or make your tentacles stronger..."

"Ding! Guidance successful! The mysterious scarecrow has gained clarity after your guidance and has made some progress!"

"Ding! The Mysterious Scarecrow's height has increased by 5 centimeters, tentacles by 2, and tentacles by 1 meter."

"Good, hold on, continue!"

Wang Jue continued to use [Unlimited Guidance]...

Ten minutes later, Wang Jue used similar words to give the mysterious scarecrow four more times!

All four of these mysterious scarecrows achieved the same growth effect: +2 tentacles, +5 centimeters in height, and +1 meter in tentacles length.

At this time, he was 2.25 meters tall and had 12 tentacles, each 8 meters long.

When these 12 black, whip-like tentacles are unfurled, the eerie scarecrow's appearance is already somewhat terrifying.

"Very good! It's starting to look like a mysterious creature!" Wang Jue exclaimed, continuing to use [Infinite Guidance] and repeating his previous words, hoping to help the mysterious scarecrow continue to grow.

However, this time, with a ding, the system gave a prompt that the guidance had failed.

"Ding! The Mysterious Scarecrow, guided by you, wants to continue growing, but is hindered by unknown limitations and seems unable to continue. Perhaps you need to provide further guidance!"

"Can't click anymore? Is it due to some unknown restriction?"

Wang Jue frowned slightly.

"Again!" Bandhu exclaimed excitedly, jumping up and down, "Keep it stronger, keep it stronger!"

"Bandhu, you have far too high an opinion of yourself!"

Wang Jue glanced at Bandehu, feeling somewhat disgusted with him, but didn't bother with him at the moment and continued to ponder.

"The guidance of the mysterious scarecrow is different from that of the guidance of the mad dog king. The latter is like an AI writing a novel, which can always provide successful guidance. How it develops afterward depends on the system. The former, on the other hand, has no plot. Success is success, and failure is simply a failure of guidance."

Wang Jue recalled the first time he guided the Mysterious Scarecrow. The first guidance failed, but the second guidance succeeded. The successful guidance allowed the Mysterious Scarecrow to take on the responsibility of the defensive tower, and as a result, he gained the skill "Substitute Body" and also gained a point in the territory's military attribute.

"The Mysterious Scarecrow is essentially a defensive tower. Combined with its teleportation ability, it's definitely the most worthwhile character to train and improve upon. Crucially, it can also increase territory attributes..."

Wang Jue checked the territory information panel.

The current total attribute value of the territory has reached 46 points. It only needs 4 more points to reach 50. Once it reaches 50, the territory mission will be completed.

Originally, Wang Jue didn't have much soul power. He wanted to collect building blueprints to improve his territory's attributes, which is why he was so eager to unlock the scrap recycling function of the Fortune House and then go to the goblin vendor to buy a [random function building blueprint] worth 10,000 yuan.

Looking back now, perhaps guiding the Mysterious Scarecrow to become stronger and increase its territory attributes would have been a faster way to complete the territory quest.

Of course, there is another way now, which is to sell your liver and write words in the Transcendent Bookstore.

"I still have 1700 soul power left, worth a try!"

Wang Jue made a decision immediately. After pondering for a moment, he once again used Infinite Guidance, saying to the Mysterious Scarecrow, "Mysterious Scarecrow, strengthen your [Substitute Body]..."

He hoped the mysterious scarecrow could give him more lives and wanted to elaborate further, but the mysterious scarecrow immediately emitted light and gave him the guidance he needed.

"Ding! Guidance successful! The Mysterious Scarecrow has been enlightened by your guidance, and its defensive tower skill [Substitute Body] has been strengthened!"

"Ding! The number of targets that can be replaced by the 【Substitute】 has increased from one to two. When a target suffers fatal damage, the Mysterious Scarecrow can take the place of death. The skill effect is permanent until the Mysterious Scarecrow actually dies."

"Ding, [Mysterious Scarecrow] skill updated, territory military attribute +1."

"The territory's military attributes have indeed increased!"

Wang Jue was overjoyed. Although Xiao Wai was strengthened by the [Substitute Body], the increase in the territory's military attributes was really appealing.

"Then let's continue!" Wang Jue used [Infinite Guidance] again, saying to the Mysterious Scarecrow, "Mysterious Scarecrow, continue strengthening [Substitute Body]!"

"Ding, guidance failed! The Mysterious Scarecrow, following your guidance, wants to continue strengthening [Substitute Body], but is inexplicably restricted and seems unable to further enhance the skill. Perhaps you need to provide other guidance!"

"What a clean and decisive failure!"

Undeterred, Wang Jue continued to offer guidance, saying, "Mysterious Scarecrow, enhance your [Instant Teleportation]..."

"Ding! Guidance successful! The Mysterious Scarecrow has been enlightened by your guidance; his [Teleportation] ability has been strengthened, and its cooldown time has been reduced to 50 seconds!"

"Ding! The Mysterious Scarecrow's skill has been updated; Territory Military Attribute +1!"

"It's done again! The total territory attribute value has reached 48!"

Wang Jue was overjoyed and continued to instruct: "Mysterious Scarecrow, continue to enhance [Instant Teleportation]!"

"Ding, guidance failed! The Mysterious Scarecrow, having received your guidance, wishes to further enhance [Teleportation], but due to unknown limitations, it seems unable to continue with this skill. Perhaps you need to provide other guidance!"

"I'm restricted again! Then I'll switch to another skill!"

Wang Jue continued using [Infinite Guidance], saying, "Mysterious Scarecrow, enhance your [Capture Substitute]..."

"Ding! Guidance successful! The Mysterious Scarecrow has gained clarity thanks to your guidance. Its [Staple Capture] ability has been enhanced. After capturing a Stand, the Mysterious Scarecrow can share the Stand's abilities (excluding talent-type skills and certain special passive skills). Please explore the details yourself!"

"Ding! The Mysterious Scarecrow's skill has been updated; Territory Military Attribute +1!"

"It didn't capture more Stands, but this upgrade is still pretty good! Next, Mysterious Scarecrow, continue upgrading [Capture Stands]!"

"Ding, guidance failed..."

The system has notified the mysterious scarecrow that it has been subjected to an unknown restriction.

Wang Jue had anticipated this result, thinking to himself, "The total attribute value of the territory is 49! I can't get stuck here, let's try again!"
