Chapter 144 Riley: It's a success, but it also seems like it wasn't.
It is precisely because we know that there are some incompatibilities between Shendu and the current Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Riley, now emboldened, dared to prepare the potion before dealing with the old Green Goblin after his resurrection.
Finally, he led everyone and, as if on a picnic, leisurely caught up with them!
Even after seeing Shendu and resting for a while, Riley, whose condition had recovered considerably, reset his own anchor status, took out the prepared potion, and enchanted everyone's hands. He didn't forget to use a bug-exploiting method—first casting a rewind spell on everyone else, then resetting his own status before casting the spell on the next person—giving everyone a resurrection shield.
With the intention of demonstrating for everyone, he first entered the stealth state of the Snake Talisman, then used the high-speed flight of the Chicken and Rabbit Talismans to quickly approach the Holy Lord, ignoring the terrain. Then, with the added momentum, he unleashed the Cheng Clan Flying Kick, amplified by the Ox Talisman.
With a series of fluid movements, Riley successfully kicked Shendu to the ground, then quickly pierced Shendu's body with his already enchanted hands.
After a frantic search, before Shendu could react and use the Rabbit Talisman to escape Riley's clutches, they successfully extracted two new talismans from Shendu's body!
This should have been good news.
But when Riley opened his palm and saw what the newly acquired talisman was, the smile that had just appeared on his face immediately fell.
Those were actually sheep and tiger talismans!
In terms of individual effects, it is the most useless of the twelve talismans, and can even be said to have a purely negative effect!
Besides, once Riley learns magic, he can create his own soul, so he doesn't need the Sheep Charm at all!
Not to mention the Tiger Talisman that separates the Yin and Yang aspects!
Why, at such a crucial moment, are you splitting Riley into two sides, good and evil, and making it look like he's fighting himself?
They're afraid the current crisis isn't serious enough, aren't they!
If Sheriff Black knew the effects of the Tiger Talisman and found Riley holding it right now, he'd probably have a heart attack from fright!
So much so that when Riley looked at the "lottery" results in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he inwardly laughed bitterly.
Alright, alright, you draw two out of twelve talismans, a one in six chance, and I just had to get the worst combination, huh!
Just like someone with bad luck and an unlucky constitution, consistently performing well as always!
Even if I drew a pig or a monkey, it would be more useful than these two things, right?
Alright, I should have brought Xiaoyu along.
With her luck of being favored by both dark and righteous forces, she will definitely be able to draw the Dog Talisman in just one lottery draw, just like in the original story, and directly break the Holy Lord's immortality!
Even more outrageous, it's not impossible that they could directly pull out the Rat Talisman, so that even if Shendu still has the other eleven talismans, he would only be able to turn back into a cold statue on the spot and be at the mercy of others!
Of course, with the release of the "lottery" results, Riley's previously restless desire to earn points, which had been growing stronger with the emergence of numerous supervillains, subsided once again.
He couldn't help but secretly rejoice...
Fortunately, I always played it safe and spent all the points I earned from the system on attribute point bonuses, which resulted in a real increase in combat power, and I gradually grew into the numerical monster I am today.
But what if you put all those points into the lottery?
Riley's luck is so bad that even a dog would shake its head and sigh, unable to bear to look at him...
I'm afraid they've already lost everything, even the guaranteed minimum return, and ended up with nothing!
"It's you! I clearly killed you, so why... give me back the talisman!"
While Riley was inwardly cursing his consistently bad luck, he was also mentally ranting about his unlucky streak.
Feeling as if he had lost something, the Holy Lord quickly scanned the surroundings after regaining his balance, finally fixing his gaze on Riley, who had come back from the dead and was holding two talismans in his hand.
The next second, although he didn't understand how Riley, who hadn't been able to hurt him not long ago, could remove the talisman from his body after only a brief contact, the Holy Lord immediately became anxious when he saw that among the talismans Riley had obtained was the Tiger Talisman.
With a fierce roar, he resorted to his old trick once more. Using the power of the chicken talisman, he suppressed Riley's movements and began to gather flames, preparing to kill this troublesome reptile again!
But this time, Riley is no longer fighting alone.
Before the Holy Lord could even breathe fire, several spider silk threads shot out one after another, binding the Holy Lord's hands and feet tightly, and also binding his mouth, forcibly silencing him.
Then, six Spider-Men, each with a different appearance, leaped down from the sky, raising their enchanted hands in unison, and rushed towards Shendu with excitement and anticipation.
Riley, who never misses an opportunity to stir up trouble, didn't forget to deliver a serious sarcastic remark at this crucial moment.
"Hey! Take it easy, you're in China now. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Arsonists will rot in jail'?"
"Damn it...you eyesore reptiles—!!!"
Seeing the same aura of Chi Charm emanating from everyone's hands as Riley's, Shendu knew perfectly well that these Spider-Men, just like Riley, could easily extract the charms from their bodies through physical contact!
The situation instantly reversed, and the Holy Lord, who had gone from hunter to prey, was secretly annoyed that he hadn't taken the easy way out and killed these annoying guys directly. At the same time, he had to give up control of Riley and withdraw his psychic power back to himself.
Then, using his own body as the center, he transformed his telekinetic energy into a repulsive force from the inside out. With no blind spots, he simultaneously annihilated the attacking Spider-Men, turning them into clouds of blood mist!
Just when the Holy Lord thought that this would temporarily resolve the crisis.
Completely unaware that Riley, having regained control of his body, had taken advantage of the chaos to silently open a small portal behind Shendu's forehead.
Then, Riley stretched out two dirty little "black hands" and rummaged around on the back of Shendu's head. Before the startled Shendu could break free of the spider silk and retaliate, he grabbed two new talismans and withdrew back inside.
The good news is that Riley's wish came true.
The bad news is, Riley's wish came true.
Because this time, the two talismans Riley received were indeed a monkey and a pig!
So much so that Riley's previously relaxed brows furrowed again, making him look like an old man on the subway looking at his phone!
No way, buddy! You're kidding me!
Why are you suddenly being so obedient?
I've tried four times already, and the probability is only one in three...
Rabbits, dogs, cows, and so on...
At least pick one of these three for me!
Doesn't this even have a safety net?
This is outrageous!
