Chapter 159: Eater
Meng Xuan followed Eshiocchi along the staircase-like folds of Agunoli's body, meeting many black-robed students along the way.
Meng Xuan felt a lot of distorted aura on their bodies, and it seemed that they were newcomers who had held one or two secret medicine ceremonies.
Eventually, they entered a fortress-like minaret complex.
Eshioch asked Meng Xuan to wait in a room with complicated decorations for a while, and then went out alone.
Meng Xuan curiously looked at the furnishings in the room, and found that although they were not exactly the same, they could roughly see some remnants of the style of the Nelson period, and at the same time, perhaps it was affected by distortion, and the style was more gloomy, making the whole room feel a little gloomy.
Squeak squeak!!
Meng Xuan sat on a wooden chair made of black branches growing from the ground, and a strange sound came from outside the door.
Two women dressed in black robes, with blond hair and delicate faces that looked like works of art, walked in and placed a delicately shaped wooden cup and several wooden plates containing small snacks of tempting colors on the seat beside Meng Xuan.
"Please····· Slow ·····"
The two black-robed women said to Meng Xuan in a synthesized voice with unfocused eyes, and then slowly walked out of the door with a creaking sound.
Evil couples?
Meng Xuan looked at the two puppet women with some curiosity.
Creak!!
Then he found that on the pillar beside him, a wooden long snake sculpture wriggled, its long body stretched out of the pillar, and the snake's head came to the table next to Meng Xuan.
Gurgling ······
A hot and smoking yellow liquid spat out of the snake's mouth, which slowly poured into the wooden cup on the table beside her.
When the wooden cup is filled with liquid, the head of the snake gradually retracts and solidifies into a relief.
Drink?
Meng Xuan glanced at the yellow liquid in the wooden cup with interest, hesitated for a moment, picked it up and took a sip.
A strong pungent taste mixed with celery, houttuynia cordata, carbonated drink, and mint water constantly hit Meng Xuan's taste buds.
The strange thing was that Meng Xuan actually thought that the taste was not bad.
He took the yellow drink and began to eat the snacks on the wooden plate.
It's still a dessert.
Meng Xuan's eyes brightened, and he took a big gulp.
By the time the Masters of the Black Eater arrived, the serpentine had already refilled his cup five times, and the two evil maidens had already exchanged more than twenty plates of desserts for him.
It wasn't until Eshiocchi entered the room with the three mentors that Meng Xuan stopped eating dessert with some regret and stood up.
"This is Meng Xuan, huh...... Meng Xuan, this is the mentor of the three major schools of our Black Devourer's Evil Couple Stream, Phantom Stream and Blade Stream......"
Eshiocchi introduced Meng Xuan.
"Alright, Eshiochi, let's introduce ourselves for the rest."
The Mentor of the Evil Idol Stream said to Eshioch with a neutral and gentle smile on his face.
Meng Xuan found that this guy Ashioqi actually blushed inexplicably.
"Hello, fellow practitioner, my name is Wan Ling, and I am the mentor of the Black Devourer's Evil Occasional Stream, huh...... We are more casual in our art activities, so if you like art, you can come to the evil couple, and we will communicate more. ”
Wan Ling's face was like a work of art with a beautiful smile.
Meng Xuan was a little speechless, what kind of self-introduction is this, he didn't even figure out what the evil puppet stream was doing, this was too perfunctory, right? Is it about beauty?
"Okay, Wanling, you guy is not suitable for teaching students, you have time to tidy up your artwork, don't come to join in the fun."
The two old men behind him hurriedly roared and pulled Wan Ling aside, and Wan Ling was not angry, still smiling.
"I'm Claudi, the mentor of the Phantom Stream, what you have condensed is the secret pattern of the 'Evil Eye', and I should also know that the effect of the Evil Eye is more inclined to illusion, and what we are studying is the phagogue of illusion, and we are good at confusing, concealment, control, and assassination, no matter how you look at it, it is your best choice."
Claudius said solemnly to Meng Xuan.
"Don't listen to his nonsense."
The bald-headed and white-bearded strong man Dorogu immediately said to Meng Xuan.
"I'm Blade Stream Mentor Dorogu, the evil eye itself has a strong illusion ability, and it has a strong explosive power, if you can have a good blade to strengthen your attack to the greatest extent, this is the best choice, I am willing to give you all the basic materials you need to forge the phagogue except for the core materials, how about it? The blade flow is the destination of the fighter. ”
Dorogu said seductively.
"The basic materials are not too valuable, come to Phantom Flow, I will give you one more core material for forging the phagogen, you know, you have reached the fifth level, breaking through the transcendent boundary, and every core material for forging the phagogue is worth a lot!"
Not to be outdone, Claudi said.
"I'll help you with half of the core materials, no more."
Dorogu said with a deep breath.
"Are you crazy?"
Claudius glared at Dorogu, even if their rank was very high, but Meng Xuan was an extraordinary person after all, and the core materials of the transcendental-level phagogus, even they didn't dare to say that they could take it out easily.
"The damage of the Blade Flow was too great last year, and the battle of the Degula Mirage consumed too much of the combat power of the Blade Stream, and it urgently needs to be replenished."
Dorogu said in a deep voice.
"How about it, if you follow the normal process, if you want to get together enough to forge the core materials of the transcendental-level phagogen, it will take two or three years, I will help you save more than half, join the blade flow."
Dorogu stretched out his palm to Meng Xuan with temptation.
"The ......"
Meng Xuan listened to the nagging of the two old men for a long time, feeling the eyes of the two old men looking at him expectantly, a little uncomfortable, and said a little speechlessly, "You have said so much, I don't know what a phagogue is, can you let me understand it first, and then choose?" ”
Claudy and Dorogu turned and glared at Eshioch, who had an embarrassed but polite smile on his face.
Look at what I'm doing, I'm not careful, that's why I didn't tell him......
……
……
Two hours later, under the introduction of the two old men, Meng Xuan had already roughly understood what the so-called "phagoger" was.
The Devourer is a method gradually explored by the Warp Conquerors after the Warp Rebellion to suppress the influence of the Warp Power on the body and personality.
Roughly speaking, magical items with "living" properties are forged through special rituals.
Then, the forger enters into a symbiotic relationship with the magical item through a symbiosis ritual, and transfers the core of the warping power, the secret pattern, to the magical item that is symbiotic with the main body through a specific ritual.
This is the "devourer", the container of the conqueror's twisted power.
Through the Devouring Method, there is the transformation of items in the middle, and combined with the Will Core Construction Method researched by the Twisted Conquerors, the risk of distortion and alienation can be greatly reduced.
And these "devourers" that carry the secret pattern will also have extremely terrifying special abilities, becoming the most powerful help for the twisted conquerors, helping them to liberate the power of the secret pattern to the greatest extent.
