Chapter 393: Newborn Gluttony(1/2)
In the Twilight City underground prison, the prisoner was locked in a cell awaiting trial, chewing straw from the straw bed out of boredom. He knew very well that he would not be able to escape execution, and it was only a matter of time before the trial court found the evidence chain and convicted him.
But so what? I have been living a idle life, working in a mill every day to earn a few stinky money, and saving as much as a nobleman can spend in a day. People enjoy themselves with women while they work hard. This kind of life is no fun.
Anyway, I can't escape death this time. At least I have a good time before I die. It's worth it.
Thinking of this, the prisoner smelled his fingers. Although they were full of the sour smell unique to the cell, the fragrance of the girl still seemed to remain. He couldn't help but close his eyes and inhale deeply in intoxication: "Hiss~ cool,
It would be nice to do it again, hehehe..."
Just when the prisoner opened his eyes again, his body suddenly shook and he screamed: "What is that?!"
I don't know when it started, but endless darkness shrouded the cell, extending infinitely outward, swallowing up all the light. Only a strange amber eye floated in the darkness, staring at him without any emotion.
The prisoner screamed and rolled back, huddled in the corner, and yelled: "Stop trying to scare me! If you didn't do it, you didn't do it. I don't plead guilty!"
Indescribable ripples and waves seemed to come from the bottomless abyss, flowing in that amber eye, intertwined into light and shadow that could not be described in words. Under its gaze, the original clear consciousness was cut into chaos, and the source of the coldness was unknown.
Coercion rushed over me, and fear erupted from every corner of my body, like a nightmare.
"Hey!!! Is there anyone?! What the hell is this... eh??!!" The prisoner shouted halfway, suddenly covering his heart in pain, his stiff neck made a clicking sound, and he looked down in horror.
The heart that was once beating hotly in the chest was now inexplicably wrapped in a strange cold current, as if a hand from the depths of the netherworld had pinched it, not crushing it directly, but squeezing it as if toying with it.
, allowing him to clearly feel the whole process of his heart being crushed.
"Ah! Help me!! Ah!!!" The prisoner struggled and screamed, but his eyeballs were attracted by an inexplicable force. No matter what, he could not get rid of the gaze of the amber eye.
The cognitive world has long since collapsed, and there seems to be indescribable light and shadow twisted and entangled in the endless darkness, like some kind of terrifying living creature.
"Save...save..." The coercion from ancient times has completely destroyed the prisoner's consciousness, and the breath of death in his heart is boiling like a tsunami. He can't speak complete words, he can only wail hoarsely, and use his teeth to
Chewing the iron bars, banging his head against the wall, hurting himself in every way he could think of, trying to divert attention from the pain in other parts of his body.
But in front of the God of Death, everything was in vain. Most of his teeth were knocked out, and the rest were crooked and crumbling. Seven of his ten fingers were broken by themselves, like the winding roots of an old tree.
He was so twisted that his skull was cracked due to the violent impact, and blood was pouring out. His whole body was in terrible shape and was inhuman shape.
When the guards heard the strange noise and rushed to the cell, blood was already flowing on the floor. The prisoner's consciousness and body had collapsed. He fell to the ground and was trembling uncontrollably. His face was covered with snot, tears and drool.
.
A prisoner died while being admitted to prison. This was a serious accident, and the guards quickly called for rescue.
But before doctors arrived, the prisoner had stopped breathing in extreme fear.
The cell was very dark, and no one noticed that at the moment of the prisoner's death, there was some kind of mysterious black substance lingering around the heart on his left chest, which quietly dissipated with the passage of life.
...
In the office, Chino, who completed the cross-distance killing, has obtained the answer to the test.
Chino was very satisfied with the test results.
Can "Abyss Gaze" and "Eye of Divine Sight" be used in combination? The answer is, yes.
The description of "Abyss Gaze" has made it very clear that in order to be effective, the enemy needs to "look" into the eyes of the incarnation of death. Kino is now separated from the dungeon by half a city, sitting in the office, and theoretically cannot be
The prisoner "visually".
But because the "Eye of Divine Sight" can be used regardless of distance, he can use the transformed eye to observe prisoners, and can also be seen by the prisoners, and that eye will be judged to be his own eye. Seeing the Pupil of Divine Sight
If you see the eyes of the god of death, you can trigger the effect of "Abyss Gaze".
In this way, exchanging Abyss Gaze is not just a matter of adding another means of destruction. This ability can be used in conjunction with the Eye of Divine Sight, and it becomes a means of destruction without distance restrictions.
Theoretically speaking, even if Kino wanted to stare into the abyss at someone thousands of miles away, he could do it in this office.
The only constraint of this combination of abilities is time. After several months of adaptation and training, Kino's Eye of Divine Vision can now be maintained for 15 seconds. Then, combined with the abyss gaze, the unlimited range of killing is also 15 seconds. It doesn't matter how long it takes.
It's long, but it's not short at all. If used well, it will have miraculous effects.
The effect of "Heart-eating" did not disappoint Kino.
What happened in the dungeon just now is actually very simple. The overall summary is this - the prisoner saw the "Eye of Divine Sight" that activated the "Abyss Gaze" effect. While his mind was eroded, fear quickly accumulated, triggering "Heart Devouring", and the heart
Being devastated by the death energy, the severe pain of heart damage further intensified the fear, causing a more violent heart-eating effect, and then fell into an endless loop.
Finally, the prisoner's consciousness fell below the critical point and fell into an uncontrollable state of "self-abuse". In the endless fear and pain, his heart was completely destroyed by the death energy, and he fell into death.
Chino also had a general understanding of the relationship between the fear value and the heart-eating lethality. Just as the ability described, the deeper the fear - or the higher the fear value - the stronger the heart-eating effect.
When the prisoners first develop fear, their hearts are only damaged and they are not on the verge of death. The "death point" appears when the fear value reaches 200, which is the moment when the harvest limit is reached.
In other words, if you want to kill the enemy with "Heart Eater" alone, you need to make the enemy's fear reach its limit.
To be honest, whether it is respect, awe, or fear, it is very difficult to reach the limit of 200 points in one breath.
What we are dealing with now is just a prisoner, and casually applying Abyss Gaze can bring his fear to the limit. But in the future, if we have to deal with powerful reincarnations or other determined enemies, it will not be so easy to maximize the fear.
It's arrived.
Fortunately, the level of Heart Devouring can be improved through subsequent strengthening. The higher the level, the lower the fear required to reach the "lethal point". After strengthening, the "lethal point" may be reduced to 100 fear points and 50 fear points.
Fear value...or lower.
Currently, "Heart-Eating" is only at Level 1, and Chino hasn't made too many demands on it.
After the verification was completed, Kino asked the guard to call Lugo.
Not long after, Lugo walked into the office and closed the door behind his back: "Sir, are you looking for me?"
Kino touched the little black cat and said calmly: "The prisoner arrested by the Public Security Department yesterday was the one who trapped and killed the little flower girl. He died violently in the cell. You can just go and say hello to the trial office and just close the case."
There is no need to hold anyone accountable, and there is no need for an autopsy, the body is directly burned."
Lugo was stunned: "That bastard died suddenly? When did it happen? I didn't hear anyone say it."
Chino: "Just now."
These two words made Lugo suddenly feel a creepy feeling. He was very self-conscious and stopped asking questions. He directly responded: "Okay. I'll do the work, don't worry."
After speaking, Lugo left.
Now that the respect and fear system matters have been dealt with, what is left is 20 million fear points. This huge "wealth" needs to be carefully planned.
Kino triggered the awe system in the triple shackles, and the endless white frost instantly froze all particle vibrations, making time stand still. The surrounding space began to collapse, turning into a mirror world of vast nothingness.
Chino's original intention was to go back to his past life to discuss issues about artificial intelligence and see how to use the omnium core like Zero more efficiently... But just as he was about to enter the mirror of his past life, he suddenly discovered something
Not quite right.
Kino stepped out of the mirror of his past life and looked at the Seven Sins Mirror, which represented the other rejecters.
It's not an illusion.
The mirror aura of gluttony is very weak...
In the past, when Kino stood in front of any mirror of the other six sins, he could feel the huge pressure from them without any form of interaction.
Especially Gluttony. Although Kino, who has no ability to empathize, cannot understand what fear is, he could clearly feel the class gap between himself and the other party during his brief communication with Gluttony last time.
It was a gap that could be felt intuitively without any confrontation. If it weren't for this layer of mirror that protected him and brought him face to face with Gluttony, he would have acted like a dog when he was in a good mood, and when he was in a bad mood.
An ant trampled to death has no control over its own life.
But now, the pressure of the other five sins remains the same, and has even become more powerful.
Only gluttony is no longer what it used to be, and the previous coercion disappears, as if it never appeared, replaced by a faint breath, like a swaddled baby.
Kino initially thought that his perception was biased, but when he touched the gluttony mirror, he discovered something that he didn't know should be called "serious"...
Gluttony to death.
To be precise, it was the "ex-Gluttony" who I had never met and who felt extremely powerful just based on his perception, died.
The reason for reaching this conclusion is simple - the awe value required to interact with "Gluttony" has plummeted, and it has dropped to an exaggeratedly small number.
Now, Kino interacts with the other five sins. Taking "Leap" as an example, the required awe points are all in the million level, and the lowest consumption "Wrath" world is also 1.03 million.
To initiate a "leap" to the current "Gluttony" world, only 1342 awe points are needed - there is data for comparison. Chino obtained awe points for the first time. When checking the gluttony mirror, it was prompted that the required "leap" consumption value is
576681 points of awe.
Previously, Chino has analyzed that the awe value required for interaction is directly proportional to the strength of the rejecter. The stronger the opponent is, the more awe value he needs for interaction.
At this moment, the awe points required to interact with the other five sins are higher than before, which shows that the rejecters of these five worlds have survived from beginning to end, have not fallen, and have been getting stronger.
However, if the awe value required to interact with "Gluttony" plummets, there is only one possibility - the previous Gluttony is dead, whether it is due to the reincarnation invasion or at the hands of a local force. The former Gluttony has been wiped out.
Like the Sun King, the former rejecter of the "arrogant" world.
Kino currently has more than 20 million awe points, and can theoretically launch a "leap" into the world of any rejecter.
But as mentioned before, when the difference in strength is too great, there is no initiative to jump rashly. Life or death depends entirely on the other party's intention. There is currently no evidence that the Seven Sins Refusers are allies, and one cannot be ruled out.
Rejectors who kill another Rejector receive special rewards.
It would be funny if Silly jumped to a world stronger than his own and was swallowed up by other rejecters as experience babies. This kind of risk would be unacceptable to Chino.
Now, the awe points required to jump to the world of "Gluttony" are only 1342 points, which means that the new "Gluttony" rejecter has arrived not long ago, just like when he first arrived in Xilin Town last year, he is still in the "infancy stage"
.
No matter who this new "Gluttony" is, what his personality is, or whether he is hostile or not, with Chino's current strength, not to mention any benefits, at least he will definitely not suffer any loss.
