Chapter 210: Long and Short Swords

The bottom line is a very interesting concept.

In the world of Xiuge's past, it is often said that there are only the first and countless times to break through and trample on the bottom line.

There are many people who believe that once a person's bottom line is undermined in one act, it will be difficult for him to set a new ideological threshold for himself again.

Of course, Xiuge didn't think that what he did to the Black Sun Association mage violated his bottom line, he had already ended a lot of lives with his own hands, and there was no shortage of this one.

After all, as Xiuge himself said, what really made him feel awkward and disgusting was the act of feeding his own kind to those monsters with his own hands.

But in any case, Schug eventually did.

He did not intend to trust the confessions of any of the members of the Black Sun Society, and instead of wasting time interrogating and torturing them, he would rather choose this process directly, and obtain that part of the information and secrets thoroughly and clearly.

In the perception of the children of the abyss, an immobile magician was naturally an excellent ration, and soon, a large number of wriggling sticky shadows crawled out of the ruins of nearby buildings, and the strong temptation of "food" made them ignore the dappled sunlight and scramble towards their goal.

Surrounded by the children of the Abyss, the extremely tenacious Black Sun Formation Mage slowly woke up, and when he opened his weak eyes, he felt a tsunami-like despair.

The lethal magic was unleashed extremely reluctantly, and the blazing magic flames bloomed beside the mage of the association with the construction of the magic pattern, and in the beating firelight, the children of the abyss who were surging forward came to a standstill, and countless large and small green eyes emerged from their pitch-black figures, and the firelight reflected in these eyes, but it reflected an extremely strong and primitive greedy desire.

"It's a betrayal!"

Surrounded by the children of the Abyss, the Mage of the Society roared in despair, straining to call for more flames as he turned his head to try to find Shug.

Then he saw that the young figure with a cane was standing quietly on a piece of ruin, not too far from him, his dark coat fluttering gently in the cold wind, and on the fair, thin face, there was no expression of emotion at all.

Like an emotionless sculpture, he silently waited for the moment to kill and eat.

"yes, it's a betrayal...... But alas, you are not in a position to rebuke me for my actions, after all, you are the greatest traitor to Vann, are you?"

Xiuge opened his mouth slightly, and his not very loud voice came with the wind under the effect of magic.

Under the desperate gaze of the association mage, Xiuge raised his right hand, the magic pattern flashed rapidly on the fingertips, and a "brain spike" instantly formed, and flew out in the direction of the association mage.

This time, without the protection of the magic ritual, he could no longer resist Xiuge's brain spike technique, so under the violent mental impact, the thinking of the association mage came to a standstill, and the magic flame that was barely maintained was extinguished on the spot.

As a result, the children of the Abyss who surrounded him immediately rushed forward, and before the mage of the association could recover from the trance caused by the mental shock, the viscous black gum had completely submerged him.

In an instant, the body that was missing a leg and foot was wrapped in a cloudy color, and like all victims who are enveloped and devoured by the children of the Abyss, the face and expression of the Mage of the Association froze at the last second of being wrapped.

Immediately afterward, the Descendants of the Abyss showed Xiuge their extremely high eating efficiency.

As soon as they succeeded in enveloping their prey, countless wiggling sharp limbs grew inside the slime, and they split and shredded the body of the mage at great speed, and then the broken human remains immediately rolled in the black muddy slime.

The mucus, like some kind of strong acid, began to decompose and melt the human debris at an alarming rate, and the power that remained in it, as well as the memories that remained in the soul and brain

Knowledge is also absorbed and divided by the descendants of the abyss who have gathered together.

After the important feeding, the Descendants of the Abyss began to move significantly lower, and in order to be able to digest their prey as quickly as possible, the gathered Descendants of the Abyss formed a new whole.

They quickly avoided the sunlight and slouched out in one direction, eventually struggling to hide in the shadows of a ruin.

As the person who was most familiar with and understood these mutilated abyssal creations, Xiuge did not leave, nor did he rush to find and hunt down these abyssal heirs, but waited patiently in the same place.

As the only living creature standing in this ruin, he naturally attracted the attention of many of the Descendants of the Abyss, but the Mirror Emissary Mist, which flashed from time to time on Shug's body, succeeded in causing confusion and shock to these greedy and murderous monsters.

After a succession of Descendants of the Abyss who had boldly approached Xiuge were cut and devoured on the spot, the rest of the Descendants of the Abyss decisively regarded the area around Xiuge as a forbidden area, and as for this strange and terrifying human, they regarded it as some kind of terrifying predator that was extremely similar to themselves.

Shug didn't mind what the monsters would think of him, he sat down on the ruins, his eyes slightly closed, his mind and perception locked on the heir of the abyss who was sucking away the soul and memories of the mage of the association.

While waiting for the Descendants of the Abyss to devour and absorb the soul and memories of the Mage of the Society, Xiuge shifted a considerable part of his attention to his "capture" on Iris Street, where the Iris Guard, who had been completely transformed into the "Heir Form" because of the ingestion of a certain substance, also provided Xiuge with a cloud of power essence after being successfully swallowed by the Mirror Messenger Mist.

Compared to the ordinary Descendants of the Abyss, the essence provided by the Iris Guard was much weaker, but in Xiuge's opinion, the memories and information contained in this group of essences were very rich, and the structure of these contents was unconventional, and there was no need to sort and organize them superfluously at all.

So Xiug easily extracted this huge amount of information, and when he was about to deal with the remaining mass of power essence, the Calon touch, which had always been extremely weak and had a weak thirst for strength, was rarely active, and Xiuge saw that these black tentacles that had been with him for the longest time actually took the initiative to poke out the grooves of the metal disc and gently swing towards him.

He could clearly feel the begging and overtures.

For the "model worker" who has never been noisy or noisy, and has performed extremely well, Xiuge will naturally be a little biased towards taking care of it, so he immediately dispelled the idea of throwing the power essence to the messenger in the mirror, and instead handed it to the swinging black tentacles.

Xiuge originally thought that this kind of power essence of extremely ordinary concentration could only be used as a snack for the guests of his disc, and the Calon Touch called for this power only out of "temporary gluttony".

However, as the writhing black shadow fell into the "lair" of Callon's Touch, changes beyond Siuge's expectations immediately began to take place.

The Kalon Touch in the groove of the metal disc scurried, and in just two breaths, the mass of power essence that was still trying to struggle was completely torn apart, and the black keratin of the Callon Touch gradually faded, and the "suckers" that originally belonged to these cold tentacles reappeared, and they turned into edible mouthparts at this moment, devouring the fragments of those powers at an astonishing speed.

There was a slight vibration from within the disc.

The dark green crystals embedded in the center of the disc and the lines of the Walking Forest shimmered at the same time, so that the tiny lines that spread between the discs were quickly lit up, and the grooves that were originally used to mark the path of Calron's touch alienation, carrying the light and shadow of the arthropods and sickles, began to flicker continuously.

A somewhat dim, faint curve stretched out of the groove, and it crawled slowly along the surface of the disk, eventually barely reaching another groove next to it.

Then, in a series of dense metal blink sounds, the most familiar and long-awaited disc change of Xiuge arrived, and in that new groove, two extremely simple black patterns appeared—look

It's like two blades crossed over each other, one long and one short!

Shug immediately recognized the source of this pattern, and it was obvious that Calron's Touch was not imitating some exact biological trait this time, but through the essence of the power derived from the Iris Guard, it successfully simulated the long and short swords that the Deresan royal family had equipped for the Iris Guards!

Shug even saw two peculiar magical patterns on the handles of the two blades - they were not the familiar iris decorations of Huge, but two strange lights and shadows that faintly merged with the hilt of the sword, which seemed to be some kind of soft creature swimming in the abyss of the ocean, and looked like some kind of strange octopus, but the head of this octopus was extremely blurred, and the extended tentacles had mouths and sharp teeth like sea snakes.

Unfortunately, the essence of the power from the Iris Guards was still too weak after all, and with the help of this force, the Touch of Calon just "lit up" a new groove and outlined the pattern in it. z.br>

When the power of the mass of essence was completely exhausted, the change in the new groove on the metal disc also stopped.

Eventually, a special crossed twin sword motif was successfully engraved in the grooves of this new disc, but unfortunately, due to the lack of "raw materials", it presented a very sharp contrast with the other two grooves of the Touch of Calron.

Both the Touch of Calon itself, and the magical motif used to carry the changes of the arthropods and scythes, were much clearer and more specific than the two crossed long and short swords.

With a deep sense of curiosity and doubt, Shuge summoned the touch of Karron, and as his mind turned, the ends of the black tentacles that coiled and suspended around Shug's body immediately began to change, and the originally sharp and hideous insect arthropods dissipated, replaced by a black blade with different handles of different lengths, but equally sharp.

The ends of these blades were tightly bound to the Touch of Calron, so it looked as if there were countless black ropes and ribbons manipulating these ominous blades.

And when Xiuge tried to give the command to attack these blades, a large number of instinctive memories from the irise-tailed guards immediately emerged, under the sensitive manipulation of the black tentacles, the long and short blades imitated by the iris twin swords in the memories of the self-guards immediately swung and stabbed at an astonishing speed, they did not interfere with each other and danced at an extremely amazing speed, and each attack and retreat showed a very similar quality to swordsmanship.

This tricky, ruthless approach to attack was in stark contrast to the brutal attack orders that Xiuge had given in the past.

"Interesting...... It seems that these tentacles are not only able to learn and imitate biological features, but also simulate weapons based on the memories they have learned, and reproduce how to use them?"

Thinking so, Shuge pointed to a large piece of building stone and gave the order to attack.

After a brief pause, the "sword-wielding" Calon Touch immediately swung up and down at an astonishing speed, and the long and short swords simulated by hard carapace and left a series of marks on the stone like a sharp, tough carving knife, and they even "carved" the stone directly into a simple human figure according to the idea in Xiuge's mind!

After testing the usability of Calon's Touch, Shug raised his hand, and the familiar black skin once again covered his palm, but this time, instead of forming sharp pitch-black claws, they formed a black longsword that emitted chaotic light and shadow in Shug's palm.

Following the memory and instinct from the Iris guard, Xiuge stood up in place, and he gently shook this special weapon extended from Karon's touch, and inadvertently, he had already put on an extremely professional swordsmanship preparation posture.

If there were people who were familiar with the Iris guard, they would definitely find that this young man, who had never received systematic swordsmanship training, now exuded a temperament that was not much different from those extremely experienced swordsmen of the Deran royal family.

And the magical light and shadow emitted from the pitch-black sword added a cold color to him that he couldn't help but retreat.

Well, I admit it...... I've been snubbing you a little bit over the past while."

Shug shook his head with a smile as he looked at the black sword in his hand, which obviously had considerable room for growth, and then he admonished Karon's touch very sincerely, "Remember, if there is any real need in the future, you must tell me in time...... Just like the other two, you know?"

So the black tentacles swayed lightly twice, as if to ask for credit, and as if they were nodding in response.
