Chapter 11: Devouring the City
As the words of the legendary powerhouse hidden in the shadows fell, dark purple flames suddenly ignited in the army of the undead, burning from one skeleton after another, outlining dark purple lines among hundreds of millions of miserable white skeletons, and finally converging into a strange magic circle.
It is not a traditional five-pointed star or a six-pointed star, nor is it a common Taoist Bagua array Taiji diagram, but a line made up of countless symbols of unknown meaning.
This is the Freedom Method, or as it should be called, a special technique that is activated through the power of existence.
If the focus of magic, spells, witchcraft, and arcane is on "law" and "magic", then the focus of the law of freedom lies in the word "freedom".
The power of existence is not energy, but philosophy, which is a kind of comprehension and understanding of all things in the world.
If you can understand this kind of existence, you can activate the freedom method at will, whether it is breathing and chatting, or even blood flow, every move is the freedom method, which is the so-called saying the law (for example, Ma Qionglin, reciting children's songs will also become the freedom method).
The flame color of the usual existential power determines the talent of the Red World Apostle, the warm color tends to attack, the cold color tends to control, and Feng Xue's dark purple flame is the cold flame that is suitable for using the Freedom Method.
Feng Xue's current freedom method can be described as famous, consisting of the "key silk thread" A large number of torches raised in series turned into the power of existence at the same time, causing the incongruity of the real world, turning the entire city, whether edible or not, into pure existence power, for the master who activated the freedom method to devour, but the number of three thousand torches was still too small (the torches that devoured the city should be at least more than 100,000, and the increase in the power of existence did not rise at a uniform rate, adding one variable might expand the result in a geometric form), in order to maximize the effect of devouring the city, Feng Xue even used the amplification formation that he learned from Leng Yao, even if it was, it was far from being called devouring the cityAt most, it is the Devouring Legion (the difference between the Enemy Treasure and the City Treasure is equivalent to the gap between the Enemy Treasure and the City Treasure).
Tens of millions of skeletons were ignited, turned into flames, and then ignited the compatriots around them, and in an instant, a large number of skeleton legions all turned into dark purple flames, but this is already the limit, seeing that the skeletons were no longer ignited, Feng Xue took a deep breath, a large number of flames suddenly contracted, and finally turned into a wisp of flame, which was sucked into Feng Xue's mouth......
"Hiccup-" Feng Xue burped, he only had a trace of the feeling he had at this moment, but he was still just a red world apostle, although the number of skeletons was large, they had no soul, and they did not have their own stories (the stories when they were alive had been lost with the soul), so there was not much power to exist.
There are still more than 10 million skeletons left, although there are still a lot, but for the defenders, it is already a number that can be wiped out with a wave of their hands, and under the wave of a dozen old summoners, hundreds of extraordinary-level demonic beasts rushed out, which was a devastating attack, and when the demonic beasts were exhausted, the rested slingers came to the city again to start a new round of trebuchet operations.
"That's the end of it?" the hero powerhouse struggled to press his lower bar back into place, "What was that just now?"
"Magic array, right? Or something, it's not something we know anyway, at least I haven't seen that kind of dark purple flame, legend has it that the devil has mastered a black hellfire, but the characteristic of hellfire is that it won't be extinguished, and the flame just now doesn't seem to be too powerful, or has a strong purpose, you see the ground is not much damaged. Another hero struggled to mobilize his knowledge base and enumerate all the flames he knew.
"Who knows, maybe it's the skill of the Eastern Terrans, but this is the first time that the Human Empire has wiped out all the undead legions before they even approached the fortress!
"It's not just Ma Claw, the latest news released by Goblin TV just now, the Hundred Tribes Council has passed the whole live broadcast of this city defense (see the Internet Security Management Regulations for specific content)!
"Uh, live broadcast? I don't see anyone using chips?"
"Chip? Have you been in retreat for the past few years? Don't you even know the "Regulations on the Administration of Internet Security" signed by the goblins? As long as you comply with the "Regulations on the Administration of Internet Security", you can directly broadcast the live situation anywhere through the Internet, otherwise what qualifications do you think the goblins have to say that there will never be a fatal death again? Because as long as someone dies, the magic network will give feedback on all the things before and after the disappearance of the spirit body!"
"Big brother, how do you know? Your family is about the same status as mine, right?"
"Nonsense, just look at it on the Internet, the Goblin Empire Network Association has already announced it, and only the savages who have just come out of the mountains don't know it!"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………
Not to mention the chat between the two legends, Feng Xue walked down the city.
"It's too little, the existence of hundreds of millions of skeletons is actually less than the weight of a few thousand!" Feng Xue frowned, the weight of a thousand people sounded very terrifying, but mortals would not use the power of existence, but as an apostle of the Red World, I am afraid that the amount of the simplest free method to launch alone may exceed the total amount of one person (Feng Xue spent more than a month separately to prepare to save up enough conditions for devouring the city, and it is also a castrated version, the real devouring city is enough to devour a first-tier city, and at the same time, devouring the city is not a free method of great consumption). You know, even a single phosphorus can swallow the existence of dozens or hundreds of people at every turn!
The existence of a thousand human beings is, at best, only a relatively strong phosphorus or the level of a newborn disciple.
This level made Feng Xue unable to even bear the weakest trace of existence in the "Writing Vientiane".
Fortunately, Feng Xue's half-red world apostle and half-fire mist warrior state devoured the existence can increase the upper limit of his own existence, but this is the only thing that is gratifying.
Feng Xue was a little eager to enhance her existence.
When it comes to the power of existence, there are two ways to ascend it, to elevate itself and to plunder others.
Plundering others is the devouring of the basics, and strengthening one's own body is even more troublesome, to use the more fashionable phrase, it is to enhance one's own presence.
The strength of a person's existence is divided into two kinds: acquired and congenital, the congenital existence is the amount of existence that a person is born with, and some people are indeed born extraordinary, such as Xana, the bloodline of a noble person is born with enough existence to accommodate the Heavenly Punishment God, if you leave it alone, you can easily become a great artist who has been famous for a hundred years, or you can become a big criminal who has been stinking for thousands of years, and the sense of existence that is enough to be recorded in history gives her an absolute amount of existence. Not only this rare bloodline, but the natural existence of a newborn from an aristocratic family or a celebrity family is far better than that of an ordinary family, because he is naturally more concerned than ordinary people.
And the acquired growth is completely different from ordinary energy.
The power of existence is not power, but philosophy.
To paraphrase Western fantasy, it is the power of faith (but the means are similar, but the essence is completely different), and if you want to increase your existence, you need to enhance the perception of others about you.
Not faith in the narrow sense of the word, but all thoughts about you, hatred, worship, fear, disgust, or even just hearing about you, all the emotions that subjectively enhance your influence on the civilized world (which is actually the 'world of intelligent creatures', but it doesn't sound very pleasant) will enhance your existence.
The god of punishment, Arasther, absorbed the fear and worship of human damnation and fire to become the demon god of the Red World, and the power of the serpent of the Creator God Ritual came from the fantasy of the creator of the world.
Therefore, whether it is good or evil, as long as it is famous, it will be powerful.
The power of the Red World Apostle is divided into two parts: domination and possession, possession refers to the amount of existence, and domination is the amount that can be used, as the former Red World Demon God, Feng Xue does not have too many problems in terms of domination.
But the power of existence is not like other power systems, where domination is more important than possession.
This is because the total amount of existence, even if it is not dominated, still symbolizes the life force of the disciple (the top seat has an almost infinite reserve of existence). An acquired master who has completely controlled the internal force may have a high chance of defeating a rookie who coincidentally entered the innate world, but this is absolutely impossible in the world of the Red World Apostle.
Even if the Red World Apostle can completely control his own existence, don't want to defeat the Red World Demon King who has a large number of existences, even if the power of existence that the Demon King can control is not more than the ordinary Red World Apostle (but this is actually just a metaphor, because if you want to become the Red World Demon King, you must be able to control a certain percentage of the power of existence), Xana in the early days of the original book can't even control the flames of Arastel, but under the attack of the Demon King level, it is only impacted and will not be fatally injured (it will be injured because of the part of the human body), although Xana at that time was also unable to defeat the Demon King。
Saying so much, it was actually because Feng Xue was not suitable to launch the Devouring City again to greatly enhance the power of existence he had.
Using Devouring City against the skeleton army, on the one hand, Feng Xue was forced to be helpless, and on the other hand, these skeleton soldiers did not belong to this world, and devouring them did not need to bear too much cause and effect.
You must know that what Feng Xue has mastered is the castrated version of the existence power strengthened by the main god, and there is no characteristic that can cut cause and effect like the original book.
If the target is a human city, I'm afraid that the moment you swallow it, you will become the enemy of the world, right?
No, I'm afraid that before he becomes the enemy of the world, the hidden myth-level masters of various empires will appear one after another and dismantle Feng Xue to pieces!
As for devouring ordinary people, even phosphorus can swallow hundreds of people at a time, how many people do you need to make Feng Xue improve?(The Red World Apostles devoured human existence not to become stronger, but to survive in the real world, because they needed to consume existence if they wanted to exist in this world, and the reason why Devouring Cities existed was huge was because of the cause and effect that erased a city from the world, not the human beings themselves)
This is also the reason why Feng Xue attaches great importance to the Internet, because there is no way to collect beliefs, and it is faster than the Internet to create gods.
But things always turned out so unexpectedly, and before Feng Xue could start his first wave of online offensive, his presence had already begun to grow.
"Eh?" Feng Xue was stunned for a moment, and carefully combed through her own existence, it was indeed an increase, although it was not much, but it did increase.
"What's going on? Because I successfully defended the city just now, I gained prestige in the territory? No, the only people who saw me do it were the soldiers defending the city in the fortress and the servants in the castle, and they couldn't survive a few thousand people, how much power can this person provide in this little time? I'm afraid it's difficult for a single unit!"
Why is that?
"Young Master, Young Master, You're famous!" Xiao Yu, who was running wildly and shouting, brought the reason......
