Chapter 480: Short-lived existence

"Go ahead, Hedgehogmon!" After summoning the soul of the Hedgehog Man, Noah simply pointed his finger and ordered the soul to attack the target dummy.

The translucent soul of the hedgehog man also revealed a fierce expression. He then opened his hands, and spikes grew all over his body, including his cheeks. He then rushed directly towards the target dummy.

The hedgehog man swung his arms and legs with a ferocious expression on his face. The spikes on his body were not as intimidating as the black spikes that grew on him in his living form, but they were definitely stronger than those physical black spikes. This was because the soul of the hedgehog man at this moment was blessed by the power of Mejia's Soul Stealing Scroll, and his soul state at this moment was definitely much stronger than the weak hedgehog man before.

With the power of the Soul-Stealing Scroll, although the Hedgehog Man is in a translucent soul state, his soul body can actually interact with objects in the real world. Even in his current high-speed charge state, he runs by stomping his legs quickly on the ground, rather than floating in a ghostly manner.

Before the hedgehog man rushed to the dummy, Noah raised his hand and released a stream of magic power in the direction of the dummy. This stream of magic power quickly passed over the hedgehog man and was injected into the dummy's body.

This magic power is to stimulate the dummy's defense enhancement ability. In the League of Legends game, players can directly increase the dummy's defense and health by clicking on the panel in training mode. In reality, if Noah wants to increase the dummy's strength, he must enhance the dummy's defense ability by injecting magic power.

Noah controlled the magic power and increased the dummy's defense to roughly the level of steel. In other words, the target dummy now looks like a wooden man, but in fact it is already a steel man.

After the target dummy was strengthened by Noah's magic, the Soul Hedgehog Man also came to the front of the target dummy. Then, with a fierce expression and his body full of spikes, the Soul Hedgehog Man hugged the target dummy.

That's right, this is the Hedgehog Man's way of attacking. As a hedgehog man who can only grow spikes, his spikes cannot be shot out, and his mutant genes do not enhance his physical strength, so his way of attacking is to use close combat and attack the enemy with his own spikes.

In the original X-Men, the hedgehog's greatest achievement was killing an ordinary human woman with a hug.

But after becoming a soul, he seemed much more powerful than before. After the hedgehog man's soul spikes came into contact with the steel target dummy, with a "whoosh" sound, all the spikes easily penetrated the steel skin.

The spikes on the hedgehog man's body were all stuck on the dummy. At this time, the Teemo dummy was almost full of holes. After the hedgehog man hugged the dummy tightly, he retracted the spikes into his body to avoid getting stuck when he stood up with the spikes. Then, he extended the spikes again and smashed the dummy with various parts of his body.

Because he is under the control of the Soul Scroll, the Soul Hedgehog Man will constantly attack the enemy, using all the means at his disposal. Of course, the Hedgehog Man only has a few means of attack, so he looks no different from an ordinary person, except that he has a few more spikes on his body.

"Tsk~" Noah looked at the Hedgehog Man's poor performance and laughed with some disgust. Even after being strengthened by the Book of Death, this guy still looked so poor. Noah didn't even need this soul anymore.

"Buzz~" As if sensing Noah's thoughts, the Book of Death flashed a light again, conveying a message to Noah.

"Can unwanted souls be destroyed?" After Noah sensed the message conveyed by the Book of Death, he looked at the hedgehog man pattern on the first page of the Book of Death in his hand.

He really didn't want this guy. Noah himself disliked this hedgehog man. Such a lousy guy, even if he appeared on the page of the Book of Death in the form of a soul, Noah still felt a little uncomfortable. You are on the first page, at least you occupy the first position, you must have a stronger or special soul, right?

Thinking of this, Noah decisively stretched out his finger, and his fingertips gently touched the page with the Hedgehog Man printed on it. The fingertips pressed against the paper gathered magic power, and then Noah began to use his fingers as an eraser to slowly erase the Hedgehog Man's pattern.

At the same time, as Noah's fingers moved, the Hedgehog Man, who was frantically attacking the dummy, froze in his arms as his portrait was slowly erased from the pages of the Soul Stealer Scroll. The Hedgehog Man's soul began to dissipate gradually with Noah's movements, first his head, then the other soul bodies below the head also slowly dissipated, until it turned into a pure soul energy and returned to the Soul Stealer Scroll.

"Okay, clean." As the portrait of the hedgehog man was erased from the first page, all the pages in the murder book turned blank again.

After the Hedgehog Man's soul was erased, it turned into pure soul energy like other ordinary souls, providing soul energy for Noah and the Soul Stealer Scroll.

As a divine artifact with its own consciousness like the Magic Hat of the Destroyer, the Book of Death did not have any opinion on Noah's elimination of his soul, and did not even react. It just silently absorbed the Hedgehog Man's soul after it disappeared back into its own body, and then fed back some of the pure energy to Noah, increasing Noah's soul strength.

“It’s no shame to delete a rookie. I’ll find some powerful guys to print for you later.” After deleting the hedgehog man, Noah closed the Soul Stealer Scroll, then patted the paper and said.

The Soul-Stealing Scroll flashed a light on its cover, as if responding to Noah's words, but then fell silent.

"Why are you different from Mao Mao? You don't seem lively at all. Are you a otaku-type artifact?" Noah knocked on the cover of the Soul Stealing Scroll and said, of course, there was still no response.

"However, the ring has turned into a book. Now it seems difficult to carry." Noah suddenly thought of this. When it was still a dark seal ring, it was very convenient to carry. He just had to wear it on his hand. Now that it has turned into a book, it is a little difficult to carry. After all, he can't put a book in his armpit anytime and anywhere, right?
