In the world before Xiuge, "a dog takes a mouse" was a widely applicable proverb, and it often ended with "meddling in other people's business."
But in Van En, this saying is obviously untenable.
At least for now, it seems that the hunting skills of the palace hounds against the rat-like clansmen have long been deeply engraved in their instincts. During the brief confrontation, Shuge could see that the hounds must have used the earth mother for a lot in the past.
God’s loved ones are the targets of hunting.
Correspondingly, the fear of these Dark Abyss hunters must have been engraved into the power and blood of certain creatures.
Therefore, when he saw the monster hunting him clearly, the rat-man spell caster who was mutated from the Black Sun Society mage fell into complete chaos, and a large number of instinctive reactions that did not belong to his body began to play.
effect.
In front of the amorphous figure that was approaching, the rat man spellcasters began to use various magics in vain that were twisted by the power of the Mother Goddess of the Earth. However, no matter what power and effectiveness these magics had, they were still unable to
Successfully hit the strange existence that shuttled between the building wall and the darkness.
"enough."
Seeing the rat man caster's arm being bitten off by the hound that sprang out from the corner behind him, Xiuge silently gave an order to the palace hound in the spiritual world. At the moment of receiving the order, the hound was preparing to
The terrifying shadow that was hiding in the corner of the building and continuing to play with its prey suddenly disappeared. The next moment, it appeared from another completely impossible angle.
The ratman spellcaster screamed and reached for his magic book, which was his instinct as a human.
However, the ferocious mouth that could grind solid flesh into pieces in an instant bit down with force. Under the grinding of the sharp teeth and the terrifying bite force, the remaining arm of the rat-man caster was broken on the spot.
The hound shook its head hard and threw down the skinny arm. Then it opened its mouth, and a tentacle that also grew in the mouth but was like a long tongue came out and hit the rat man with the accuracy of casting a spell like a straw.
The head of the person.
Xiuge noticed that the blessing radiance attached to the body of the rat-man spellcaster did not play any defensive role.
It's as if the shield that can easily block ordinary magic is just some kind of decoration.
For the constant influx of rats, the spellcaster seemed to be equivalent to the "priest". Therefore, when the "priest" died, all the attacking rats immediately fell into a state of madness, and the darkness on them
The yellow blessing light began to spread out uncontrollably, and that power seemed to become the sweetest bait, making all rats flock to it.
Although the rats who carried the will of the Ernst family chose to retreat immediately, a considerable number of rats were still "infected" by the power from the gods' secret ritual.
In the previous dream, Xiuge already knew that this blessing from the Mother Goddess of the Earth was what all the clansmen longed for most. Therefore, when he saw the power beginning to spread towards the "own" rat group, he immediately
He mobilized his magic power and summoned the running rat.
"squeak!"
Before the body could take shape, the running rat Snicki felt a strong sense of excitement and yearning. It let out a series of screams, and without waiting for Xiuge to issue an order, it headed directly towards the blind animal closest to it.
The mouse rushed away.
Without the support of the same kind, these rats that had been mercilessly punished for "betraying" the gods in the past were simply unable to compete with the "pure blood" running rats, so the will of the unknown member of the family belonged to
The mouse was immediately picked out by Snitch, and its three tails easily pierced its target, and immediately took away the trace of the god's power.
Immediately afterwards, it ran towards its next goal...
The rats that were still under control naturally retreated quickly, but Snitch was now eyeing the "traitors" who openly "occupied" the blessings of the gods. It rushed towards the center of the fight desperately.
Go, the three long sword-like tails quickly launched an attack, constantly attacking and killing the competitors.
As the fighting progressed and the power of Mother Earth continued to gather, Snitch's body began to undergo obvious changes.
At this moment, Snicki's figure began to faintly overlap with those three-tailed giant rats that Xiuge had seen in his dream.
Although there is still a huge gap between it and those "ancestors" who were huge and used as war beasts, many similar characteristics are still emerging.
The first is body shape.
As the killing continued, Snicki's body began to expand - this time, Shuge could be sure that the swelling was not the hair that exploded under his bluff, but a real change in body shape, although this progress was not.
It's not very obvious, but its power is obviously increasing rapidly.
Then there is the desire to kill and fight.
Although the original Snitch is equally warlike and bloodthirsty, when it encounters an irresistible enemy, it will still show strong vigilance and fear. When "death" comes, it will also let out a miserable scream.
But this time it was different. Facing the tide of rats that had hit him hard before, the running rat did not show any flinch. On the contrary, as the number of wounds on its body increased, its eyes began to turn from the original dark green to
Scarlet transformation.
Xiuge was a little hesitant at this moment.
For safety reasons, he should immediately forcibly take over the thoughts of his summons and disband them. However, this is obviously an extremely important moment for Snitch, if it can obtain enough in this battle of rats.
With the blessing of Mother Earth, it might have a chance to "reappear" the "glory" of the three-tailed giant rat.
As someone who has indirectly ridden such a ferocious war beast in a dream, a real three-tailed giant rat is really too tempting.
Who can resist a magical mount with strange horns on its head that can single-handedly break through the enemy?
However, Snitch's presence among the rats is too high. It has killed a large number of targets, which has allowed it to successfully seize a large number of blessings from the gods, which also makes it the leader of all rats.
The most obvious "target" among them.
Under this situation, even those blind rats who also had blessings and were being fiercely besieged began to actively rush towards this alien.
Weilin carefully observed the movements of the rats, and she also noticed the changes that were taking place in Shuge's summons. Based on what Shuge said before, Weilin immediately guessed something, so she curled her lips and immediately mobilized herself
With the magic power, he began to cast some magic that he didn't commonly use.
A slight buzzing sound came to Xiuge's side. He turned around in surprise, only to see Weilin silently carving magic patterns in the air with her magic power.
After a few breaths, the magic pattern was completed, and complex magic models began to be assembled under Weilin's control.
Finally, with the completion of the magic, the light blue magic power quickly formed a continuously changing glow in front of Wei Lin, and then, from this glow, several different animal images split out.
With Weilin's concise gesture, the auras of these animals with different forms such as cats, deers, and eagles immediately dispersed forward, and quickly chased Snicki's figure.
In just an instant, the light and shadow of these animals disappeared into the running rats that were constantly chasing their targets.
"Um?"
As the summoner of Snitch, Shuge immediately felt the benefits brought by this magic.
With their help, the running rat's magic concentration, reaction speed and the strength of the magic connection with itself have been significantly improved, and as the last light and shadow that seemed to be some kind of bear creature disappeared into the place Nicky's body immediately began to expand rapidly.
"What's this? The speed of a cat and the strength of a bear?"
Shuge couldn't help but ask questions. Now he felt that he didn't have to worry about Snitch, because with the blessing of these magics, it had begun to kill its own kind. The three tails could actually swing around. When those magic mice were torn into two pieces, the scene could be said to be extremely bloody and brutal.
"In the last chapter of the book "Magic and Sleight of Hand", this type of magic is introduced... specifically for magical summons."
Weilin slowly replied while replenishing her magic power: "Although this chapter is theoretically optional reading, I remember I said that you should read the entire book, huh?"
A familiar feeling of "teacher questioning" came over me.
It's as if a certain topic has been randomly checked or a certain assignment has not been completed.
So Xiuge was very calm and explained naturally: "I have been too pressed for time recently, so I have focused all my energy on learning how to use the magic book... Miss Weilin, you should have seen it, and the results are not bad."
While the two were talking, the surrounding rats remained silent.
These souls who have not been exposed to ordinary life for many years are very interested in the topics among young people today, especially the communication style of Shuge and his two brothers, which seems to be hugely different from the aristocratic young people in their impressions.
Wei Lin glanced at Xiuge, and then she nodded slightly, indicating that she recognized Xiuge's explanation.
But then, she added: "The magic and rituals related to summoned objects have always been in the blank area of the Legal Committee's research... Although the Legal Committee has always had a department specifically responsible for studying the magical system of summoned objects, as far as I know , this department has not developed any new magic for decades, so now, this type of magic has been included in the general spells."
"Is it difficult to innovate this kind of magic?"
"Well, because depending on the summoned creature, the effectiveness of magic and rituals will also change dramatically. You should still remember the medium summoning technique I used before, right?"
While staring at the fighting rats, Weilin explained: "In fact, among the several magical creatures that I can summon, only the 'Blue Raven' can withstand the enhancement of many different summons. Magic, and the rest, can only serve as pathfinding pets most of the time."
"I understand, which means that the magic that can enhance the summoned object must be created for the summoned object itself, but even if it is successfully created in the end, it will be difficult to promote it, because other types of magical creatures are completely inapplicable?"
"Yes, it is under this circumstance that quite a few magic scholars believe that the known magic that can stably strengthen summoned creatures is actually related to the lost evil magic. After all, the operations in them
The principle has not been completely dismantled until now."
As soon as she mentioned evil magic, Wei Lin began to speak faster. She seemed to have forgotten that she was in a strange and gloomy underground floor, and that there was a group of rats in front of her who were constantly fighting. Behind her glasses
His eyes began to shine visibly, and his originally gentle tone began to become more powerful.
"I originally thought this was a cover-up for their incompetence by those summoning magic researchers, but now I don't think so..."
While speaking, Weilin constructed the magic pattern again, and a new enhanced magic immediately fell on the running rat, which made Snitch, who seemed a little tired, become energetic again.
"Mr. Shuge, the abilities you have now should all be related to sorcery, right?"
Wei Lin asked seriously: "This rat named 'Snitch', that terrifying monster just now, and even the tentacles you used as destructive magic... they all seem to have the ability to 'summon'
Characteristics, if they are indeed closely related to the era when sorcery and magic were created, then I can make a bold assumption here. The essence of the so-called "Mother of the Earth" secret ceremony is actually the same as that passed down to this day.
The summoning enhancement magic is similar.”
"As we can see now, the power of this magical secret can change the form of living creatures, enhance their strength, and even interfere with their thinking. The essence of this is something that we cannot understand yet, and it is extremely powerful.
, a terrifying enhancement magic, but the coverage of this magic is not only for specific magical creatures, but also includes humans."
Having said this, the female mage breathed a sigh of relief, and she unknowingly showed a smile full of expectation: "Mr. Shuge, I have a hunch... When your summons successfully absorbs all the magic power here, maybe
It will be able to reveal many secrets to us about those evil magics and the lost gods followed and worshiped by the Black Sun Society. I am looking forward to it."
Before he finished speaking, a piercing scream suddenly came from among the rats.
Xiuge immediately turned his attention to the running rat. Through the magic link between the two parties, he was surprised to find that the concentration of magic power in his summoned object had reached a limit at this moment.
It was almost bursting with magic power!
