People's understanding of things and the environment is always very easy to be subverted and refreshed.

Before the outbreak of the Great War, most people's understanding of the word war was still in the past, and their understanding of the composition of armies, and the weapons and magic that might be used, came mostly from the many battlefields that had occurred in the past two hundred years.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if they go back another three hundred years, they are actually not too much different, and the difference may only lie in some changes in battlefield tactics, as well as several variants of crystallized guns and crystallized cannons.

However, that sudden "big war" was like a terrible lever.

When it was pulled down by the invisible hand, everything in Vann began to become unfamiliar.

Strange weapons beyond the imagination of ordinary people continue to appear in the ever-changing battlefield like weeds after the rain, and the magic and crystallization that Van En relied on in the past are no longer the only decisive forces, they are beginning to combine with a large number of new concepts and knowledge, and evolve more new things.

At the same time, a number of unimaginable and even catastrophic phenomena are emerging.

The Black Sun Society, and the ancient gods they worshipped, were the main source of these horrific disasters.

Strange creatures of life, strange lost powers, blasphemous magical rituals...... Such "miracles" continue to torment people's nerves and wantonly undermine the curtain of moderation that has been woven by rulers and administrators such as the Legislative Council for thousands of years.

Behind that torn veil is a devastating reality.

At this point, the residents of Overwatch have become the most vocal group after the poor Salem refugees.

In a way, what they saw was even more shocking and incomprehensible than the disasters that befell the city of Salem at that time.

After all, the Descendants of the Abyss who once filled the city and hunted its inhabitants were not invincible or invincible, but still had the weakness to contend with weapons and magic.

However, the mass of things that were now squeezed out of the great dark rift was enough to destroy the thinking capacity of any determined person in an instant.

The events that took place in Overwatch were more or less explained or comforted by concepts such as "miracles" or "miracles."

But in the face of the current situation, the knowledge they have and the knowledge they have has completely lost its effectiveness.

Even the most knowledgeable scholar had no way of explaining the terrifying claws of a beast that seemed to be capable of crushing almost half a city.

Also witnessing this scene were the Dawn infiltrators who, under the cover of the Wattle shelling, managed to pass through the St. Steele line and began to advance towards the rear of Overwatch.

At this time, they were still a long way from Overwatch City, but the cracks and claws were so amazing that the night could not hide their existence at all, and such an abnormal and strange scene also made these warriors with strong beliefs dumbfounded and weak.

"Record it, record it! Draw it down! ”

Almost every leader who infiltrated the ranks gave this order to the full-time clerks in his ranks.

However, in the face of such a situation, the war clerks who had mastered many skills and were good at using magic to record on the spot became like children, holding magic ink pens, but they could not put pen to paper at all.

And when they finally escaped from the horror of the distant scene, and decided to try to depict and record this strange scene, the patterns and magical lines left on the pages of the book became extremely distorted and messy, and the words written were reversed and lacked logic.

Beyond that terrible shadow, apparently from another world, there is an invisible force that can directly interfere with the observer's mind.

Anyone who tries to observe it with the naked eye, perceive it with magic, will suffer quite a serious effect.

As a result, these brave and determined warriors quickly stopped this futile and dangerous attempt, and within a few tens of seconds, they felt that their cognitive abilities had been severely impaired, and some of them even vomited or fainted as a result.

"What are the people in that city going to do? What about the comrades who remained in that city? What do we do if this happens to us? ”

Questions like these fill everyone's brain, and they look at each other, but they can't come up with a clear answer.

And at this moment, the huge shadow peeking out of the gloomy crack had a new movement.

The strangely shaped, dark purple glow of the crystal claw shook violently twice as hard as it could, stretching outwards as hard as it could, slamming the narrow "door" open.

More purple light and shadow squeezed out of the crack, and a piercing sound was produced, tormenting everyone's eardrums, shaking the confused night, and sending unspeakable strange shocks into the distance.

……

The closer you get to Overwatch, the more intense the shock becomes.

At this time, Xiuge, who was in the central square of Overwatch City, undoubtedly suffered the most terrible impact.

Even if he had already been mentally prepared, even if there was an extremely strong and tenacious protective force in the spiritual world, Xiuge still had a serious feeling of dizziness at this time.

When the limb belonging to the true invisible wolf successfully passed through the rift and reached Vane, Shug was directly under the weight from the physical to the soul level.

Whether it is the naked eye or perception, it allows him to clearly capture the truth of what exists in front of him.

The surface of the twisted limb was not covered by ore or magic crystals.

It was the remnants of the souls, wills, and despairs of countless victims, the remnants of which had spanned countless times, and together they had become the hardest skin and scale of the invisible wolf, and the eyes and ears of the terrifying hunters to spy on this long-lost hunting ground.

When the limbs of the invisible wolf tried to squeeze out, it inevitably rubbed violently with the chasm, and a large number of crystalline debris fell off, and these so-called "debris" were actually extremely staggering in size, and when they fell to the ground, a thick abyssal fog burst out from within, and not only that, but they also tried to fix themselves in place as if they had life, and began a new round of "growth".

"How's that, it's spectacular, isn't it?"

In the face of this extremely impactful scene, Theseus's performance was still very calm, and he was even in the mood to laugh in Xiugu's head: "This is the power that the real 'Great Hunt Master' has...... The previous projection was only a perfunctory treatment of the so-called believers and seekers. ”

Theseus's voice already contained a certain amount of power, and although his tone was as bad as ever, hearing him say this, the painful feeling that Xiuge felt because of facing the impact of the invisible wolf was also alleviated to a considerable extent.

So Xiuge breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and pulled the corners of his mouth very reluctantly: "I want to know, why can you be so calm......"

"What? You don't think the mad dog I 'kicked' before is the projection you just got rid of, do you? ”

Theseus laughed very disdainfully: "Is that level of projection worth my own foot?" ”

Hearing this, Xiuge's eyebrows couldn't help but rise, and he looked at the night sky in front of him, only to see countless layers of patterns emerging from those dark purple crystals, which combined and blended with each other, and quickly formed pupil patterns of different sizes.

Countless eyes were focused, and it was clear that the invisible wolf was confirming the identity of the prey in front of him.

So Xiuge asked, "Can I understand that you are actually capable of dealing with the trouble in front of you?" ”

Theseus laughed dryly twice, and then the wicked faceless god responded, "You guessed wrong this time, huh...... To tell you the truth, I can't beat this guy, at least in the frontal battle, I'm no match for him. ”

“……”

In the face of Xiuge's silence, Theseus seemed very calm, and he said without shame: "However, the true power of the abyss is already worse than before, otherwise it would not have required such a long foreshadowing to even launch a formal 'Great Hunt'." ”

At this point, Theseus finally restrained his frivolous tone.

He looked at the dark pupils that were coming over through Xiuge's gaze, and said in a deep voice, "Fundamentally, I have a very similar origin to this mad dog...... We are all born in the most chaotic and filthy shadows at the bottom of the abyss, so the source of our power is infinitely closer...... It was able to use these powers to hunt me down, and I was able to escape with it, and the chase that took place in the endless abyssal fields was destined to lead to nothing. ”

"Xiuge, there are two choices in front of you now."

It was the first time he had heard the other person call himself that.

"The host of the Great Hunt has left his own beacon on you, and you can choose to continue to escape in Vanne, but this is destined to start the Great Hunt earlier, and even let that 'mad dog' set foot on Vann again and again."

"In the same way, you can choose to go deep into the abyss and compete with it in an endless race in a world where there is no boundary."

"Just like you before?"

"Not exactly, because I will never get lost in the abyss, and I will always succeed in finding a way out of it, but you're different...... As an individual with flesh and soul, it is very easy to get lost in that chaotic world. ”

At this time, the giant claw that poked out of the crack had already made a new movement, and with the focus of those pupils, the breath and traces of power on Xiuge's body were finally successfully captured by the invisible wolf, so the limb was raised high, and the light and shadow symbolizing destruction began to brew inside those crystals.

As if to pronounce a verdict on the entire city, the high-raised, twisted limbs fell so violently that even Xiuge could not capture them.

At the moment of the attack, the metal disc that was the carrier of power rotated violently, and with a keen sense of magic and decisive judgment, Xiuge's figure quickly exploded into the abyssal mist, and drifted out in a specific direction.

In the next instant, the impact of the invisible wolf's movements erupted in the central square, which had been completely destroyed, and the dark purple devastating shadows split apart, turning them into sharp invisible blades, cutting countless shadowy ravines on the shattered ground, and then flying away in different directions of the city at an astonishing speed.

Streets, Buildings, Vehicles, Human ...... Everything that stood in the way of these invisible blades was cut at the moment of contact, and this was the mark left by the true wolfbeast when it set foot in the world.

To it, this is not even enough to be called a footprint it leaves behind, at most a little smoke and dust that it stirs up as it steps.

The souls in the crystals are whistling, and the detritus that falls off is also making a piercing hiss, as souls that have been completely occupied and conquered by the invisible wolf, they are destined to applaud all the actions of the wolf beast.

The scattered shadows reunited into a substance, and in the confusion of light and shadow woven by this dark crystal, Xiuge's figure seemed a little erratic, and his pupils, still with a little blue light and shadow, stared at the giant claw that was raised again.

The second slap came.

This time, Xiuge didn't choose to dodge, he raised his arm, and swung his staff diagonally upward, and the magic power of the sea tide was drawn from the gap in the disc, and turned into a slender blue sword with his movements, leading a bright thin line in the shadow of the wolfbeast's limbs.

The azure light that had collapsed before due to the explosion of magic power appeared again, compared to before, it seemed so fragile and dim, but in the face of that astonishing pressure, it still burst out with infinite vitality, the moment this thin line touched the giant claw, countless dark crystals turned into powder, and a shocking ravine appeared on the limbs of the wolf beast!

"It's useless, it's not enough to crush it, it will only make it more determined to pursue you."

In the face of Theseus's advice, Hug did not answer, he only took deep breaths and tried to stabilize his violently trembling palms and arms.

Under the pressure exerted by the invisible wolf, he could barely feel the presence of half of his body.

Theseus didn't continue to speak, as usual, he could clearly perceive Shug's thoughts at this time, and he was naturally able to understand the choice that Shug really wanted to make.

Then there was a crisp snap of fingers in the sea of spirit, and then the magic book hanging from Shuge's waist opened silently, and all the pages fell off at this moment, and they flew wildly around them, and then captured by the silk threads made of mist.

Drawn by the faceless gods, the pages with different magical patterns floated in the air, forming concentric circles and beginning to flutter rapidly around Shuge.

This structure is exactly the same as the rotating metal disc.
