Chapter 17 Mouse and Mouse

Chapter 17 Rat, Rat

In addition to the three large bottles of changeling bug slime collected by Shuge, the next thing waiting for Shuge to verify are the other three materials he bought from Boss Gerald.

According to his own expectations, Xiuge first brought the three tough long tails of plains belly rats to a floor-to-ceiling cabinet close to the wall.

As Xiuge's eyes moved, the strange words sealed on one of the drawers also appeared.

"The intact rat has three tough long tails."

After confirming that there was no problem, Xiuge randomly found a god of Van En and prayed a few words, and then slowly leaned forward while holding the three long tails of the belly rat coiled into a ring with his hands.

Soon, changes began to happen.

Xiuge first felt that the three long belly rat tails he was holding were trembling very irregularly. It felt as if these three tough tails had been injected with life again.

Within two seconds, Xiuge's premonition came true. He saw these three long tails starting to twist slowly in his palm. This feeling was a bit bad. Xiuge only felt that he was holding three special tails at this moment.

snake.

He endured the discomfort in his heart and continued to observe the changes in front of him.

The strange line of text sealed on the drawer finally reacted. It began to sink towards the surface of the drawer and merged with the drawer itself in an instant. Then the handle of the drawer disappeared and was replaced by a full-length handle.

A black hole the size of a fist.

"This seems to be something close to the legendary familiar... Well, every minute and every second it exists, it is constantly consuming my magic power. Although the consumption is very limited, at my current level

, sooner or later it will drain you dry."

"squeak!"

The three rat tails reacted more strongly to the hole than Shuge himself. They twisted their "bodies" like real snakes and clung to the surface of the cabinet, and began to cautiously approach the black hole that appeared.

This sound continued for quite some time, and finally it gradually subsided, and at that moment, two small green eyes suddenly appeared in the darkness.

That was the cry of some kind of rat, but before Xiuge could make any further judgment, the three long-tailed rats had already disappeared into the darkness one after another.

After picking up the cup and taking two gulps of cold water, Xiuge leaned on the bed and let out a sigh of relief.

It lay down, its three tails naturally stretched out behind it, and its head was awkwardly pressed against the ground.

"Is it bowing?"

Fortunately, it did not last long. As the magic disk in the spiritual world continued to rotate, another groove in the innermost circle changed. Just next to the tentacle groove, one with black lines

The drawn mouse pattern slowly emerged.

Beside him, all the magical biological materials prepared before have now disappeared. Only the containers containing them are still in place, and they have now brought enough benefits to Xiuge.

He really felt like there were mice crawling on his body now.

The pain faded away.

"Try it?"

Just like the black tentacles, the moment it sensed Shuge's "eyes", the mouse pattern engraved in the groove suddenly came to life. It raised its head and shook its head in the direction of Shuge. It looked like

It's cute to be naive.

In addition to these two "alchemy bombs", the magic disk in Xiuge's spiritual world has also undergone amazing changes.

Shuge felt a connection between himself and this magical creature.

A mouse that was larger than an ordinary mouse. Its body was covered with fluffy gray-black hair, and three slender tails were trailing behind it. Xiuge recognized that the three tails were clearly the long tails of the belly rat he had brought with him.

But now, they are "grafted" on the mouse in front of them in some way that they cannot understand!

The strange three-tailed mouse jumped to the ground. It raised its body, looked at Xiuge twice with its green eyes, and then made a strange posture.

Huge rats crawling around, long black snakes protruding from the wall, broken sewer pipes with a strange smell floating around, and a graceful woman walking towards him, covering her face with a fan...

"The magic power on the metal disc seems to have become more intense... From this point of view, it seems that completing other magic engraving processes can bring certain benefits to my total magic power."

With this thought in mind, Xiuge dragged his tired body, gritted his teeth and walked towards the two unprocessed items.

This is really a mouse.

This is what Shuge got in exchange for "offering" the set of female accessories from the Walter Kingdom.

Xiuge looked at the two mung bean-sized eyes with some surprise. Then, he saw the two green eyes gradually approaching him. Soon, the owner of these two eyes came to the exit of the hole.

at.

The moment the bite came, the mouse exploded into an invisible mist in front of Shuge's eyes. At the same time, an indescribable pain crawled all over Shuge's fingers, as if there were countless mice.

The pain gnawing at his flesh was not as severe as the first time he received the magic inscription, but it was equally unbearable.

Shuge took a look at his relatively abundant magic power reserves, and then jumped out of bed. This time he very carefully set the place for experimenting with magic in the empty foyer.

Just like when he released magic several times before, Xiuge raised his palm and his spirit began to converge towards the groove with the rat pattern on the disc.

While Xiuge was thinking, he moved his gaze to another pattern that was close to the tentacle magic pattern.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xiuge opened his eyes to the sound of the magic clock chiming.

This time Xiuge heard clearly.

After observing his own spiritual world, Xiuge became excited again: "Although the total amount of growth is still limited, judging from the current situation, this is the only way for me to learn magic systematically as I currently have no way to do so.

The only effective way to quickly gain magic power..."

In order to avoid unnecessary shock, Xiuge moved back slightly with his office chair and began to wait quietly for the next change.

He fumbled around twice, and then carefully picked up two metal spheres about half a palm in size. The surface was covered with complex green lines, and on one side, there was a button-like existence.

"The fur will become my armor, and the sharp teeth will become my swords and guns... Your claws have become the continuation of my limbs, and your breath has become the extension of my sight... Praise the Mother Goddess, praise the Mother Goddess...

Praise the Mother Earth.”

As Xiuge saw with his own eyes, the mouse pattern that symbolized the new magic had three extremely long tails. These three tails coiled its body, as if it were three long snakes trying to strangle it...

In desperation, he had no choice but to retract his head, knowing that this was probably some weird ritual that he couldn't understand.

The ritual process this time was extremely long. Although the three living rat tails were constantly moving, they were always very "cautious" and did not immediately get into the black hole that connected the inside of the drawer. This made

Xiuge was somewhat impatient.

When this magic crystal was formed, Xiuge felt that his consciousness seemed to be dragged into a strange and fragrant illusion, but the figures in it, which were not naked and difficult to distinguish between men and women, all covered their faces without exception.

, it seems that they are not willing to let others see their true appearance.

"Squeak!"

Anyone who spends a whole night in a lucid dream state that can maintain self-awareness will not be able to maintain a good spirit.

These chaotic and broken shadows seemed to form a faint whole. While making Xiuge feel uneasy, they also revealed an unspeakable charm that made him unable to extricate himself.

Time began to pass little by little.

And just when Xiuge wanted to deal with the other two things first, he suddenly heard a very slight sound.

"squeak!"

Xiuge climbed up from the ground tiredly. The experience just now almost made him hallucinate.

For him, this night was destined to be extremely long.

"This is...a mouse?"

Xiuge was a little curious, so he bent down and tried to cast his gaze into it, but the hole was completely dark and he could not see anything.

Intuition and instinct dominated Xiuge's body at this moment. He unconsciously knelt down on one knee in front of this strange mouse, and then stretched his right hand forward.

It was like something was calling softly somewhere far away.

This time, Xiuge didn't dare to think about leaving. He bent down and looked seriously into the depths of the hole, quietly waiting for the next development of the situation. Then he heard a series of sounds coming from the darkness, and

It was as if something was biting and fighting crazily inside, and Xiuge even heard a few indistinguishable sharp screams.

If possible, Xiuge really wanted to sleep in so that he could replenish the energy he lost during the night. However, the passing of the night showed that he was one day closer to the armistice celebration.

This is what Shuge obtained in exchange for a whole basket of swamp witch hair. From the appearance, they look like some kind of one-time anti-personnel alchemical bombs, and their structure is somewhat similar to the "grenade" in Shuge's impression.

Similarly, considering the poisonous properties of the swamp witches, Shuge quickly put the two alchemical creations aside carefully to prevent himself from triggering them unintentionally.

It circled in place, then stopped, raised its head and began to wait quietly for the order of its summoner.

On the night that just passed, Xiuge's spirit suffered an extremely severe test. He didn't know if anyone in this world besides himself would experience multiple magical inscription rituals in one night. He only knew that this kind of

The horrific process had already caused a lot of mental pressure on him. All night long, his dreams were filled with all kinds of weird and bizarre scenes.

As if it had finally received a favor, the mouse that was lying on the ground suddenly jumped up. At this moment, it exposed its huge teeth, and the sharp claws hidden in the soles of its feet poked out. It was extremely hungry.

The ground fell onto Xiuge's palm and bit down hard on his index finger.

Now, in the center of the metal disk, there is a dark green crystal embedded in the disk itself. It is generally hexagonal in shape and is constantly flashing an obscure and dark light, radiating its own mysterious light to the surroundings.

And gloomy magic.

He felt that his sleepiness had become one with the ceiling of the bedroom. Once he closed his eyes, the ceiling would press towards him with a heavy sense of sleepiness.

Xiuge raised his head in surprise, and then he saw the three rat tails he brought with him rushed to "swim" toward the black hole as if they had felt some kind of call.

As the spirit gathers, a completely different spell-casting process emerges in Xiuge's mind, followed by a strange and unfamiliar text. As the magic power flows, the interpretation of this strange text begins to become clearer.

, so Xiuge followed the power of magic and slowly read it out.

"Its existence has increased my magic power by more than one level, and it seems that it can directly affect my two magics embedded in the innermost grooves... I still need to conduct further tests. In any case,

The increase in the total amount of magic power is a good thing, at least now I don’t have to worry about falling asleep when I use magic."

As Xiuge chanted, a dark magic power visible to the naked eye slowly condensed in his palm. Then, the dark hole that had appeared in the dream before suddenly opened in the middle of Xiuge's palm.

The next moment, a strange mouse dragging three tails jumped out and jumped to the ground.



This outrageous idea popped out of Xiuge's mind. At the same moment, he felt distinct fluctuations of magic power. His metal disc used to inscribe magic spontaneously began to rotate, with countless gears hidden in the disc.

There was also an orderly sound. Under the operation of those structures that Shuge could not understand, the two metal slots closest to the center of the disk emitted a faint white light. They seemed to be eager to welcome their new arrival.

Guests are here.

Xiuge briefly assessed the rate of loss of magic power, and then tentatively began to issue orders to the three-tailed mice.

Soon, Xiuge had tried some commands such as running, jumping, biting and even more detailed commands. Xiuge was pleasantly surprised to find that the flexibility it displayed was more outstanding than he had imagined, and he seemed to be able to do it as well.

There is no need to give verbal orders, just convey some vague ideas, and it will be able to understand and execute them quickly.

After discovering that this special mouse could even use its claws and teeth to make beautiful bows, Xiuge couldn't help but become curious.

He asked: "Do you have any other work? Show it to me?"
