Chapter 18: I Call ...... Huh?
At twelve o'clock in the night, Dio, who had finished his meditation, slowly stood up, and at this time he had been officially promoted to the dark mage of the first ring. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, at this time, Dio was confused.
Because, in this darkness, he can easily see his room clearly, but everything has become quite monotonous black and white.
It's as if he suddenly put on a pair of night vision goggles, except that everything he sees is much clearer than what he sees through the goggles, and the color is not green.
Since there were no mirrors in the room, Dio didn't know that at this moment, his eyes had turned grayish.
(This is ...... What is dark vision? οΌ
Dio closed his eyes, then opened them again. After confirming that this was not his own delusion, Dio, who was frowning, immediately called the system.
(System, are you there?) What's going on? οΌ
Dio is sure that this ability similar to "dark vision" is definitely not brought by the Book of Darkness. Because Dio himself is the owner of the dark ability, he can clearly feel that when he meditates, the dark element does not erode his body, but rather smoothly integrates into his body like a small stream flowing into the sea. Therefore, his body should not have any changes due to the cultivation of dark magic.
In other words, he suddenly has the ability to "dark vision", either the egg made by the master or the egg made by the system.
[This "Dark Vision" ability is actually one of the abilities that you should have as a Heroic Spirit, but it has only been activated now. γ
As you become a magician, you identify with the world a little more. In the same way, the main plane is gradually accepting you. γ
[This is just the beginning.] γ
[And as the main plane gradually accepts your existence, the main plane's rejection and restriction on you will gradually decrease, and your original abilities as a heroic spirit will be restored one by one. γ
(This is the rhythm of making me honestly a legendary dark mage...... οΌ
Dio rubbed his brow and decided to put the matter aside for now.
(I'm already a Dark Mage of the First Ring, what about the quest reward?) οΌ
γDing! γ
[Side Quest: "I'm going to be a mage!"] "Done. γ
[Mission Reward: The "Call of the Apostles" ability has been unlocked.] γ
Are you going to start the summoning now? γ
(Of course.) οΌ
Dio replied in the affirmative in his heart, and then narrowed his eyes, carefully examining the detailed list of summons given by the system.
What makes Dio a little headache is that although he is limited by his strength, he can only summon an apostle whose strength is not stronger than him, but the summoning options that the system can provide are still so many that his eyes are dazzled.
So, Dio threw this trouble directly to the hard-working system elves.
(System!) You should have a filtering function, right? οΌ
[Yes!] γ
(Okay, remove all the summons with intelligence below (9) for me, and pick out all summons that excel in stealth abilities.) οΌ
Swipe, the options given by the system are suddenly reduced by seven or eighty percent, but there are still more than 2,000 options left.
(Well, you have the ability to counter-detect, react quickly, and preferably be able to follow the mission objective for a long time.) οΌ
With Dio's idea, the options given by the system were drastically reduced again. Of the remaining thirty or so options, Dio noticed the first option at first sight.
Its name is "Shadow Feather".
As Dio looked at this option, the system immediately popped up with detailed information about the "Shadow Feather".
"Shadow creatures?"
Seeing these words, Dio couldn't help frowning. Because, as a dark attribute, he is likely to clash with the priests of the Holy White Church one day in the future. And the shadow creatures whose weakness is light will definitely not be useful in that case.
However, after continuing to look at it, Dio found that in addition to the weakness of being afraid of the light attack, this "Shadow Feather" fully met his requirements. And the other options also have some various flaws, and they are not as good as this "Shadow Divine Feather".
This made Dio hesitate.
[Master, you don't really have to worry about this little problem! γ
At this moment, the system elf suddenly sent a message.
"Huh?"
Dio raised an eyebrow, and then waited for the system elf to explain.
Like you, these apostles must be disguised before they can descend to this main plane. At that time, this "Shadow Feather" will be able to freely switch between the shadow form and the disguised form. In the form of camouflage, the strength of the "Shadow Divine Feather" will drop a lot, but there will be no weakness in the light system. γ
After listening to the system elf's explanation, Dio nodded, but another thing came to mind.
(Do all the messengers need to be disguised...... Could it be that my employer is actually an evil god? οΌ
[Not so! Master! The Supreme Lord is not an evil god! It's just that His power is so great that even His weakest apostle needs to go through considerable restrictions before he can smoothly descend to this main plane! That's why you need such a disguise! γ
(Is that so...... οΌ
The skeptical Dio raised an eyebrow, and then decided to put the matter aside for the time being. After all, whether Dio's employer is an evil god or not, he doesn't really have any choice now.
"Alright, let's summon." Dio said lightly.
[Please bite your finger and use your blood as a primer.] γ
Dio didn't say anything more, and bit the index finger of his right hand. Beads of blood oozing from Dio's wound with a hint of dark golden light slowly floated towards Dio's front under an invisible force.
Dio's eyes widened: through the darkness, he could clearly see that a small crack had suddenly appeared out of thin air.
A strange gray-white sculpture fell out of the crack, and the crack quickly closed.
The strange sculpture did not fall to the ground, but hovered in front of Dio out of thin air. As Dio's blood beads fell on the sculpture's head, countless cracks suddenly cracked on the sculpture's body.
As the crack became denser and denser, the strange sculpture suddenly struggled, and then the surface of the sculpture turned into countless detritus and fell to the ground one after another.
Revealing the ...... in the middle of it A little girl with blonde hair.
The little girl, who looked about the same age as Aisha, opened her eyes suddenly, and after carefully observing Dio with her blood-red eyes, the little girl took a step forward and fell to one knee in front of Dio.
"Scorpio star spirit, have seen the master."
quickly ripped off his coat and threw it forward, and Dio, who was quite depressed, covered his eyes with his hands and said helplessly.
"System! Get the hell out of here! I promise I won't kill you! β
