Regardless of what other places in Van'en and the other corners of Salem City look like now, Shuge himself has fallen into another round of trouble.
There is a huge difference between those magical beasts in the past who had no power but no idea how to use it, and today's descendants of the Dark Abyss who rely on their own wisdom to effectively use various means and actively exert their own advantages.
For a few moments, Xiuge even felt that he was not fighting against some lost magical creation, but facing a strange army.
With the outbreak of magical changes, the huge power and knowledge accumulated in the bodies of the descendants of An Abyss finally ushered in an important transformation.
For them, although the changes that occur at night symbolize the further approach of the crisis, at the same time, the turbulent magic also opens the door to a new world for these defective products that are constantly learning and growing.
The "mountains" covered with hard carapace that can destroy fragile buildings at night are just the beginning.
Soon, the desperate situation that Shuge had experienced in the sewers of Salem City appeared again, and this time, they were more violent and more difficult to deal with.
A large number of instructions were conveyed outwards from the main will of the descendants of Dark Abyss, and at the same time, countless pieces of knowledge and memories were classified and sorted by the main will, and a clearer division of labor began to appear.
Shuge originally wanted to use his magic ability to break through from the front again. However, when Shuge rode the running rat Snitch and began to charge forward under the cover of Charron's Touch and many fire magics, Dark Abyss
The descendants finally brought some small changes to Xiuge.
This time, the person who expressed the strange emotion that "the times have changed" was Shuge himself.
God knows what the main will of the descendants of An Abyss has retrieved from those mountains of memories and knowledge. Maybe they succeeded in finding some memories belonging to the soldiers of Salem City and the accompanying mages, or maybe they succeeded
All the content and knowledge related to battles and wars have been gathered together. In short, these "silt" people who used to only rely on their own strength and numerical advantages to swarm up in an attempt to completely submerge Xiuge have shown extremely amazing results this time.
Discipline and division of labor.
Facing the rampaging rats, which were like steel chariots, they first built an extremely solid line of defense. The descendants who formed this dark wall were deprived of all offensive capabilities, and a large amount of dark mucus was quickly consumed, and directly
It is made up of extremely solid horny material, which looks just like the carapace on the Touch of Charron of Shug.
The descendants of the Dark Abyss, who were supposed to quickly shrink and disappear under the burning magic flames, became tougher this time. Although the black carapace that formed the defense line still could not stop the spread of the flames, Xiuge could no longer do what he had in the past.
That way, you can open up an escape path for yourself through a series of fire magic.
What surprised Xiuge even more was the resistance shown by these descendants of the Dark Abyss against the messenger mist in the mirror.
The changes in magic power seem to not only make them "smarter", but also make them gradually step out of the ranks of "incomplete creations".
Ever since Xiuge mastered the Mirror Messenger Mist, he has been using them to hunt the descendants of the Dark Abyss. In the face of the orthodox power of the Dark Abyss Palace, the incomplete characteristics of the descendants made it impossible for them to struggle in front of the fog. However, it is different now.
Well, when Snitch, who was surrounded by thick fog all over his body, crashed into the obstacle blocking the road, the mucus that should have been crushed on the spot in front of the mist, the messenger in the mirror, and captured into the essence of the dark abyss, was unexpectedly forced by the huge group consciousness.
Then it started to self-destruct.
Yes, they would rather completely throw away part of their power in the process of blocking Shuge's advance than let Shuge successfully seize half of it.
In desperation, Xiuge could only choose to change direction and break out from other passages in Rowe Square. However, at this moment, a scene that shocked him even more appeared - a road that was originally relatively smooth suddenly disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Filled with many dark slime individuals, they basically maintained their human form, but part of their bodies took on the state of other creatures.
Then Xiuge felt a violent tremor of magic power.
As a spell caster, he is already familiar with this change. It is a normal situation that occurs when magic power is actively invoked and begins to build a magic model. However, now, it is not Xiuge who is building the magic model, but those who are trying to block the way.
Descendants of An Yuan.
The worst situation that Shuge had anticipated finally occurred. They not only began to imitate and use complex strategies, but also mastered the power that the residents of Vann relied on most in the past long years.
Xiuge's reaction was still quick. When these dense figures were still constructing magic models, a page of the magic book was torn out by him. With the injection of magic power and the waving of Charron's touch, it was enough to make a huge difference in the world.
The "Dance of Resonance" that terminated the magic construction within the range was sent to the center of the crowd. As this magic took effect, the magic power that had been in a regular state was instantly disrupted, and the bodies of the heirs of the dark abyss were also violently
He was shattered and deformed by the mental shock.
But their bodies are just a ball of mucus.
The individuals responsible for casting spells are only an insignificant part of the ethnic group.
Seeing more human forms begin to reorganize, Xiuge immediately burst out his power. With the roar of "Hound's Teeth", the palace hound that had been restless for a long time rushed out of the groove in the ground that "evaporated" out of thin air.
A professional hunter, today's hound can no longer regard the target in front of him as boring prey. It shuttles through the disintegrating mucus like a phantom, and countless newly reorganized descendant humanoids are easily defeated by it, and the hound's
The unique power directly deprives the life force of these mucus, making it impossible for them to reunite again.
At the same time, a large amount of Charron's Touch was rolled out under the control of Shuge, and the sharp sickle blades and long and short swords swept through the defense line like a storm, just like those in the ancient heroic novels among Van En.
The scene is ordinary - a powerful sword-wielding mage rushes into the enemy group and wipes out all the enemies with pleasing sword skills and weird and inexplicable magic.
In the chaos, there was still magic that was re-condensed by the descendants of the Dark Abyss, who successfully constructed it.
These human figures were hidden in the buildings on both sides of the street. They used the buildings as their bunkers and launched unexpected attacks.
There are not a few mages devoured by the descendants of the Dark Abyss. These victims were mainly concentrated at the beginning of the disaster and during the actions of several legal committee branches later. However, they were eventually devoured and completely "digested".
", but most of them are stream-level mages and ordinary mage apprentices, which makes the magic mastered by the descendants of An Yuan relatively common and ordinary.
Acid liquid, fireballs, electric light, and sharp blades and arrows made of magic power flew towards Shuge from different directions. The original normal magic power had turned into black under the transformation and distortion of the descendants of the dark abyss themselves.
It was a dream state for the members of the Dark Abyss History Society in the Rijie Club. Therefore, these mutated magics composed of Dark Abyss magic dragged out countless oppressive dark trajectories in the air. Surrounded by them, Shuge even felt that the surrounding temperature was changing.
A sharp decline.
"It seems that magic and magic are indeed not our exclusive tools, nor are they the authority given to the residents of Van En by the goddess Mel... At least, she cannot protect these monsters."
Xiuge sighed in his heart, and then quickly retracted the Charron Touch that was originally deployed outwards, and built several layers of temporary bunkers around him. After the violent shock and the destruction of multiple layers of protective magic, the first batch of descendants
The magic bombing came to an end, and the Running Rat had already led Shuge through the area where the enemy group was the densest.
There was no such troublesome roadblock ahead, so the Running Rat once again unleashed its true speed. Xiuge also took the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief, but before he could relax, the speed in the metal disc suddenly increased.
Improvement, under the influence of instinct and intuition, Shuge directly used the magic connection to take over Sniqi's movements. Then the sensitive three-tailed giant rat suddenly changed direction, leading Shuge to jump at an extremely awkward angle.
go out.
Almost at the same moment, there was a loud roar from the end of the street, and then, a bright fire broke out from where Snicki had just been standing, and a violent shock wave swept over, killing the running rat carrying Shuge.
It was thrown away fiercely, and the two layers of protective magic that Xiuge had temporarily constructed were torn to pieces in an instant.
Relying on his quick reaction, Xiuge completely turned his body into a human-shaped mist at the moment when the magic power explosion occurred. Although the sweeping impact caused him to lose a lot of magic power, it ultimately failed to damage his body.
causing direct damage.
"what?"
However, there was a buzzing in Xiuge's head after he had escaped. He cursed silently, but at the end of the street, he saw an astonishing group of An Abyss descendants that were two stories high.
Slowly squirming.
Its body is now tightly wrapped around an old-fashioned crystal cannon that was disassembled from somewhere. However, the metal base that was supposed to be equipped with magic crystals to stimulate magic rituals and provide power has now been replaced by the constantly flowing offspring.
It was replaced by the body, and next to this cannon barrel that was successfully combined with living creatures through some unknown principle, humanoid figures made of mucus were constantly moving. Under Shuge's horrified gaze, they actually cooperated to move a group of people.
A crystallized cannonball stored inside the mucus was "moved" out and loaded into the cannon.
What Xiuge didn't know was that in the past period, as the Anyuan descendants continued to absorb and learn from the victims' memories, they not only successfully understood human emotions, but also further perceived these emotions.
origin of.
Among these memories, the series of artillery bombardments launched by Votel's army and the traces of artillery shells flying continuously in the sky are so vivid.
Weapons, magic, tools...
In terms of how to perfect themselves, the descendants of the Dark Abyss are very willing to make every possible attempt.
Xiuge never expected that he would be able to withstand the bombardment in Salem City, nor did he expect that the initiator of the bombardment would be a gathering of dark abyss slime.
The new crystallized shells were ready, and fine magic lines appeared on the surface of the ugly black slime. These were the magic circuits they extracted from the victims' memories. With the operation of magic, a considerable part of the slime's vitality was permanently destroyed.
The earth was consumed in the heavy weapon fixed in the descendant group, and then there was another roar, and the classic-style but amazingly powerful crystal cannonball hit the center of the street, and the violent explosion and magical light and shadow tore apart everything around it.
They also seemed to wrap up Xiuge who was stunned on the spot.
…
The sound of cannons in Salem City turned into a strange and long muffled sound after passing through the barrier of the ceremony venue.
The people who were busy in the emergency committee's station looked up in surprise. It was now a truce. Logically speaking, there should be no sound of shelling. However, after looking for a while, people could not find any noteworthy traces in the sky, so they
He lowered his head and returned to his work.
Compared to the busyness in other places, the laboratory where Wei Lin worked before seemed particularly quiet.
People who occasionally come in and out of the laboratory are all fully armed. They wear protective magical mysteries, have the highest-standard magic metal helmets on their faces, which are enough to cover the entire head, and are covered with heavy magic all over their bodies.
Fabric lab coats, these things have only one function, and that is to isolate magic.
And inside this laboratory, all the hospital beds that were previously placed here have been removed and replaced by metal magic containers one after another.
Inside the container, there are strange figures soaked in a large amount of alchemical liquid.
Several senior magic scholars stood in the laboratory. They looked at these bodies that were soaked in alchemical liquid and seemed to retain a certain amount of vitality, but they could not say a word.
The figures in these newly added tanks are not the third group of volunteers who entered the crack at all. They are the resident mages who have been staying in the crack camp and are responsible for monitoring the secret ritual and the crack situation.
Even the senior scholars within the Law Committee did not expect that with the outbreak of magic power, the strange power that originally existed only under the cracks came to the surface completely. Overnight, the spell casters who stayed in the camp
The soldiers were completely wiped out. The more abundant the magic power, the higher the degree of crystallization.
Now, the tanks in front of them even contained two valley-level mages and a sword-wielding hermit.
Their loyalty to the goddess Mel did not save them from the disaster.
