Chapter 4: Devouring and Harvesting
"It was Sakhir's Lu, an Eredan who excelled in darkness and summoning magic, and the head had been taken by Mephistos. ”
Of the seventeen extant skulls, Schüzenar finally chose the most suitable two.
"Paracels, a humanoid creature from an underworld, specializes in life modification. He has great achievements in alchemy and cursed magic. After returning to the Legion, he was killed in a conquest, his body was divided into countless pieces, and the Legion only recovered his skull. Fortunately, the soul did not dissipate. ”
"The Guardian of the world of Seyne Constantine, once a Titan creature of a certain world, was degraded into a giant by the curse of the Void creatures, betrayed the world he guarded after gaining independent thought, and later became the master engineer of the Legion, turning his original world into a furnace and a powerful user of evil powers. In the end, he tried to betray the Legion and was beheaded by Akmund. ”
Life Modifications, Curses, Engineering Builds, Unholy Spells.
This is the direction that Schüzenar is most interested in at the moment.
"What am I going to do with it?" Schüzenar grabbed Paracels' skull, and he shuddered at the sight of the flames inside the skull.
"It's like eating. "They've all been dealt with, they've lost the protection of their souls, and it's no harder to eat them than it is to eat a human civilian." ”
Schuzenar looked at the skull in his hand and felt something slowly secreting in his mouth......
Even if he doesn't use soul-sucking spells, Nasrezm's instinct for soul-sucking is instinctive.
Shuzenar sucked lightly, and a wisp of soul entered his body, which was quickly consumed by some force within him, and brought a pleasure that had never been seen before.
A small number of memories appeared in Schüzenar's mind like a reserve of information. These memories are different from Schuzenal's own memories, like a book that has been put into the spiritual world, and although it can be read and consulted at any time, it is obvious that it is not himself. In reviewing these memories, Schüzenar could understand how its original owner felt, but he was not lost.
Schüzenar sped up, two powerful souls devoured by him, and he had a lot of knowledge in his mind, but it would take a lot of time to integrate them.
Shuzenar rubbed his fingers lightly, and a pulsing wisp of evil energy appeared on his fingertips, but Shuzenar felt that this power had a kind of all-consuming rage, and the strength of the evil energy he could use was not high. If he used his evil power with this body alone, he wouldn't be much better than an ordinary warlock.
The knowledge in his head soon led Schüzenar to find the answer.
Evil energy—this kind of energy is rarely cultivated through hard work. One of the great characteristics of the evil energy is that it can be transferred, and it can erode and strengthen the host. Many of the demonic powers of the Burning Legion have been gifted by their superiors or transformed by other energies. The way ordinary beings obtain evil power is mainly to please the owner of evil power and obtain rewards by means of sacrifice, and the other way is to burn life. Life force is an excellent fuel for evil energy, and because of this, evil energy has a powerful destructive power on living beings.
If you want to make your evil spells stronger, you need to get more evil energy, which will inevitably be changed by evil energy. Even demons do the same, and many times, they become stronger, and of course they turn greener. Thus, in some of the appellations of existence, the Burning Legion became the Forgiveness Legion.
Evil energy, it has to be said, is a convenient energy that can quickly become very strong. But at the same time, it is also constantly influencing the user itself, and the user's reason and thinking will change, and even lose the original morality and nature because of the loss of power. For those creatures that are not strong enough, evil energy can make them far beyond the boundaries of their own race, but for a powerful race, evil energy can destroy all of a person's talents, and his growth ceiling is greatly reduced.
Compared to evil powers, Shuzenar is more sensitive to curses.
Nasrezm himself has a talent similar to hypnosis, has a natural advantage in the use of mental power, and is also a powerful dark creature himself, with a high resistance to the negative effects of curses.
The so-called curse is not a so-called broken mind circle, but a technique that uses its own power to image the target.
By directly influencing the target by injecting power into the target, using power to construct techniques for indirect influence, and using power to change the world's large-scale influence...... Through the influence of the created weapons, equipment, and other media, it is set to break out under certain conditions...... The functions are also diverse, changing the appearance of the opponent, sealing some of the opponent's abilities, interfering with the opponent's spirit, and changing the opponent's body. Under certain conditions, curses can even have the same effect as blessings, but the cost is known to all.
But this ability is not good at bursting and frontal combat.
Therefore, Schüzenar also opted for life modification and engineering construction.
Life transformation - this is very common for demons, there are too many mutated demons, what hellhounds, three-headed hellhounds, explosive hellhounds, three-meter-tall demon guards, ten-meter-tall demon guards, eye demons and destruction guards who are several times the size of the body, if you don't show some characteristics, you are embarrassed to say that you are not low-level cannon fodder.
For Nasrezm, the transformation of life is not of great significance, Nasrezm's body has been proven to be perfect in tens of thousands of years of development, many demonized creatures and demons are modeled after Nasrezm when transforming themselves, and even many of the characteristics of demon hunters are borrowed from Nasrezm.
Even if Nasrezm transforms his body, he will return to his original appearance after returning from death, so the accustomed Nasrezm gradually stop thinking about transforming themselves. But the technology of life modification is not useless, even important, for Nasrezm.
In the course of his missions, Nasrezm often uses transformation spells to transform himself into the appearance of other creatures, which requires a sufficient understanding of the target creature, and needs to be meticulous to the structure of every muscle and bone in order to perfectly imitate the target creature and not reveal it in the process of obtaining intelligence. A handful of Nasrezm who are particularly adept at this can even take the place of the target's leader, controlling an entire organization to serve the Legion. That's where the knowledge of life modification comes into play, and this knowledge can make Nasrezm's transformed creatures look exactly like the real thing.
A black mist gradually appeared on Shuzenal's body, and his body turned into hundreds of bats, and then, these bats gathered towards the center of the black fog again, and then, a man with black hair and black eyes appeared in the center of the black mist, this changed body was extremely fragile, and any attack could knock him back to his original form, which could not make Shuzenar satisfied, but Shuzenal's current knowledge could only do so much. Shuzenar tried to change the appearance of the incarnated man, and soon, the man became clear-eyed and delicate, and after a while, he turned into a 2.5-meter-tall King Kong Barbie...... Then it developed in the direction of more and more curiosity, and finally, Schuzenar lifted the incarnation and returned to the appearance of the original body.
"Not skilled enough...... Schuzenar pinched his chin and decided to learn the trick.
The last course, constructology.
What is the use of this technology?
