Chapter 131 Aleister’s famous scene in The Shining
Antlers fled all the way and hid back in the "storage room" again.
But not his storeroom, but Aleister's storeroom.
He resurrected the two remaining corpses to protect himself.
And directly petrify the door of the storage room, and prepare to stay here until the ceremony is over.
It is a pity that the resurrected corpse was stripped of the four realms and cannot use love, beauty, wisdom, and the ability to transcend the four realms. The two corpses should belong to "Red" and the monk, corresponding to love respectively.
The path and the path of wisdom.
This means that these two corpses are only able to move.
But it's not really a big problem. The door has been sealed, and no one will come here except the giants... If the giants arrive, he will send the corpse over for them to eat.
"There are at most three survivors..."
Antlers murmured in a low voice: "It's impossible for Hui to survive. Then the ceremony is actually over.
"I just need to stay here and survive until the end."
No matter what, he never imagined that Mr. Gray would survive Aleister's attack.
For a demon with weak sanity, low intelligence, and prone to madness, chasing assassins who run fast and are good at hiding is probably like a cat chasing a mouse. It only makes him more interested in hunting. The shadow demon can also give him insight into shadows.
ability...so Hui's stealth is also ineffective against him.
"I hope Hui can hold on a little longer."
Lujiao gloated and whispered: "You young people still have many opportunities anyway, so give this opportunity to me..."
As expected of a demon, it’s so terrifying. He sighed.
Although in the view of demonologists, demons are just dangerous humanoid beasts.
But looking at other professions... at least at low energy levels, demons parasitized by higher-level demons are much more dangerous than demon scholars.
According to the demonological knowledge that Shikaku acquired from the Noble Red Society, first-level demons can exert at least one-tenth of the power of upper-level demons and one-third of the power of lower-level demons; as they initiate battles with demons
transactions, the strength they can exert will further increase.
Demons are like a good psychic container, gradually shaping their bodies into something more suitable for demons to use.
For demons, the devil is the "armor" that helps them avoid their weaknesses, and the "house" that can appear in the material world without relying on a contract. It is a very precious asset.
Unless necessary, the devil will not be willing to kill the demon he is parasitizing.
Therefore, demons can gradually give up their control over the body and exchange for more and more powerful power through transactions. As the energy level increases, their bodies will be continuously strengthened, and they can gradually develop the ability to borrow more demonic power in advance.
skills, or permanently distort one's body into a demon-like posture.
Until the demonologist advances into the demon incarnation, transforms himself into a superior demon and gains immortality, in terms of pure combat power, the demonologist will never be able to defeat the demons of the same level. Just like the lawyer, it is difficult to compete with them.
The confrontation between supervisors of the same level is the same.
After all, the caster's combat effectiveness in early encounters is weaker.
However, as far as the relationship with demons is concerned, the relationship between demonologists and demons is always that of collaborators. Higher-level demonologists have an almost enslaved relationship with little demons and lower-level demons.
However, the devil is always at the bottom.
What they want to transcend is their own destiny controlled by the devil.
That Aleister is obviously the type enslaved by the Shadow Demon.
The sound Aleister made in the waiting room could not be a human voice. Judging from the tone and intonation, it should be the movement made by the shadow demon controlling his body.
At that time, Lujiao judged that because he had no one to teach him, he was stronger than the normal demons parasitized by the shadow demon. It was probably because he had sold more souls in his past life in exchange for stronger ones.
Strength.
Based on his trading speed, it is estimated that he will be swallowed into an empty shell by the Shadow Demon before he reaches the third level.
But Antlers still underestimated him.
——When the hound appeared, Lujiao gave up the temptation and turned around and ran away.
Because Antlers knows that hound. It is Shadow Demon's signature attack method and it is also the incarnation of Shadow Demon.
Antlers is friends with Vice President Boka of Lloyd's Club. Boka is also a member of the Noble Red Society and was the one who introduced the society to him.
Boka is a very high-level demon scholar, and Lujiao has seen him use very powerful high-level ritual spells with his own eyes.
The ritual "Bite of the Shadow Dog" is to temporarily summon the shadow demon in the form of a shadow dog, and send it back with only one attack.
It looks like a shadow dog like a vigorous hunting dog. It has an open mouth but is taller than a person. It can devour people with just one bite. And if it jumps up and attacks, it can bring the bitten part directly back to the dream when it lands.
The shadow realm of the world. That is equivalent to directly erasing this part of the body... If you happen to swallow the whole person in one gulp, you can drag it directly into the dream world.
The biggest difference between phantom demons and races in the material world is that all phantom demons can physically enter the dream world. But it is impossible for humans - so humans will die irresistibly the moment they are dragged into the dream world.
If this blow can hit the fifth-level strong person completely and swallow him up without breaking out until he leaves, then the fifth-level strong person will also be killed by one blow.
This is the classic Transcendence Path magic.
Pay attention to the weak defeating the strong, prepare in advance to pay the cost of time and materials, bear the risk of missing a hit or failing to devour, perform complex rituals, and bet on the possibility of killing with one hit.
At that time, Vice President Boca made the right bet - the Arbitrator, who was more powerful than them all, was directly taken away by the Shadow Demon and disappeared without a trace. Not even a trace was left.
If Aleister could summon the Shadow Dogs...
That means that the power of Shadow Demon has been able to appear to the outside world through him. As a container of Shadow Demon, it can allow the power of Shadow Demon to flow to the outside world, which means that the container has leaked.
As a demon, there is only one step away from losing control. The same is true for those phantom demon eggs that are close to losing control.
"...It doesn't matter, I will win in the end."
Antlers comforted himself.
This promotion will only hasten Aleister's death... His will has been almost completely worn away, and this promotion will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
He vaguely heard that the thunder seemed to make the knight escape. But from Lujiao's point of view, the knight probably couldn't escape either.
The only one who can survive is myself hiding here.
Then after Aleister is promoted and is completely devoured by the Shadow Demon, this ceremony will actually mean that he alone wins.
The location where he is now is the storage room where Aleister first appeared. This is a perfect hiding place that Antlers found with great difficulty.
His judgment was simple - Thunder and his team had three people, but Aleister appeared alone. Then the storage room with two corpses must be the storage room where Aleister appeared.
This is a blind corner of thinking.
Aleister would either hunt down the knights or look for the holy spear. When time was tight enough, no one would think of turning back. Especially the place of birth that took a long detour.
"Seventeen minutes left."
Lujiao murmured in a low voice: "Soon, soon..."
Although he does not have a pocket watch, as an extraordinary person on the Dusk Path, he is very keen on the passage of time.
"——What's so fast?"
A faint, low voice suddenly came from outside the door.
This made Lujiao hold his breath immediately.
A great sense of fear seized his heart - even though he knew that this was all just a dream, the incomprehensible yet imminent sense of crisis still made him feel suffocated instinctively.
He tried hard to suppress the fear in his heart and calm down.
Without saying a word, he raised his hand without hesitation and used his remaining magic power to use the petrifying light on the door again.
——It’s hard to see clearly in this dark environment. There is a bone ring on the index finger of Antler’s right hand.
It was a magic weapon made of a baby's skull that he had personally crafted.
It allows Antlers to skip the first-level spell chanting and complete the spell casting instantly. This is why his level is slightly lower than that of Red and Thunder, but he will sit in the first position.
Before, Lujiao deliberately complained to Mr. Gray that "he didn't have a bone staff", and chanted slowly and completely at the petrified gate. This was just to hide his instantaneous spell casting ability and dig a hole for Mr. Gray. If Hui thought he saw his
Trump card, if you plan to attack him, then he will give Mr. Gray a surprise.
Unexpectedly, Lei Lei, who had fainted for no apparent reason, suddenly woke up.
Compared with the knight and the unknown spellcaster, Thunder was much more threatening. So Lujiao was forced to reveal his trump card and tried to sneak attack Thunder and instantly petrify it.
But for some reason, the Thunder reacted—not so much a reaction as a prediction.
The speed of petrification is faster than bullets, and if you try to dodge it, you will no longer be able to dodge it.
It's really strange, why did Lei Lei realize that he was going to use petrification on him?
Antlers, who was not good at fighting, couldn't figure out what flaw he had revealed. Now, he no longer had the need to hide... All he could do was seal the door.
Without locking the bronze door, it would take these strong young warriors all their strength to push it open. With him welding the keyhole, the handle, and the crack in the door, Aleister was also
Can't open the door.
As long as Aleister is disappointed, he will probably leave. After all, there is no need for him to kill himself. In fact, Aleister has successfully advanced...
But at this moment, there was a loud noise.
It was as if something had struck the bronze door—the extremely solid solid bronze door was cut through with just one blow.
——This is the door of the temple, not a pure bronze plate!
Lujiao's heart was beating violently, and he couldn't help shouting: "Are you crazy?! This will attract the giant here!"
And Aleister's deep and sinister voice came from outside: "Then open the door, sir..."
Before he finished speaking, there was another loud noise, the ground shook, and smoke and dust rose up.
This time Antlers finally saw clearly, it was a huge spiral gun made of shadows. Even the blessed temple gate could not resist the Shadow Demon's full attack. I was afraid that a big hole would be punched out if he tried again.
"——You are crazy, you are such a devil!"
Antlers raised his hand without hesitation and shot the petrifying light at the hole.
However, there was no third attack.
Just when Lujiao thought he was petrified successfully, he was about to send the corpse to test it out: "Go and have a look..."
"I'm here..."
A low, hoarse voice was behind him, whispering in his ear: "What do you want him to see...?"
when--
In an instant, countless sharp spikes with barbs penetrated from the back of the antlers. The slender black thorns were covered with blood, pushing his body forward and upwards.
"Well……"
The severe pain made Lujiao's mind go blank.
He didn't even have time to understand what was happening, when he saw an extremely thick black spiral spear piercing his back, piercing his chest and abdomen, and appearing in front of him.
"Is this what you want to see...?"
Shadow Demon's evil and hoarse voice sounded.
Then, amid its crazy laughter and the shrill screams of the antlers, the antlers were torn into pieces by the shadow demon starting from the limbs.
