Section 9 Hand-to-hand combat with hornworms
Ivy felt like she was lying on a glowing water, with a colorful sea of light beneath her, and a void around her.
It was obviously an extremely illusory and unfamiliar place, but she felt very familiar and peaceful, as if she realized that she was having a controllable dream, and she was afraid that she would suddenly wake up because of something more in her head.
The sea of light beneath her body was warm and calm, and Ivy couldn't feel her hands and feet, as if her whole body had dissolved into this infinite light, merging with the sea of light.
Looking up in the sea of light, Ivy could see a purple sun slowly approaching in the sky.
The eerie purple color is a little unsettling.
The purple sun drifted down countless firefly-like points of light, slowly merging into the sea of light.
At first, it was just a little bit of a star, and before she knew it, Ivy noticed that the void around her had been shrouded in a cloud of purple smoke.
The uneasiness that lingered in my heart suddenly became a kind of warning sign!
Ivy was amazed to see strange things floating out of the sea of light, towards the purple ball of light.
These strange things drifting away from the Sea of Light have fleshy cores, and branches of various shapes and numbers, some like coral, some like tree roots, and in a word, like tentacle monsters.
Watching these things float away slowly, Ivy was still in a trance, but when the first strange thing submerged into the purple sun, a huge sense of emptiness was like a fist on her heart, which shook her heart!
Stop them from leaving!
With this thought, Ivy's mind suddenly became clearer, and her originally vague consciousness became clear, and specific feelings appeared in her hands and feet.
With a flick of her legs, Ivy jumped in the air and grabbed a coral tentacle monster with whirring flesh.
"Huh, what's the matter?"
The self that jumped out of the sea of light was actually a fruit body!
"Wait, wait, is it okay to fight the tentacle monster hand-to-hand like this?"
Although such a thought occurred for a moment, another rational consciousness told himself that the current situation was not that the tentacle monsters were invading themselves, on the contrary, they must prevent these tentacle monsters from leaving, otherwise, they might lose something very important!
As if to verify Ivy's thoughts, the tentacle monster in her arms began to struggle violently, and the movements of these tentacles were indeed not eating the tofu of this body, but trying to get out of her arms!
"What is this called! You actually told me to counterattack the tentacle monster naked?" Ivy felt awkward in her heart, and her movements were slightly relaxed, and the tip of the monster's tentacle was attached to her body.
Buzz-buzz
"Whoa! Actually electric shock!?"
Her whole body seemed to be pierced by iron needles at high speed, and waves of tingling pain with a paralyzing sensation caused her limbs to spasm, and the monster immediately broke away from her clamps and merged into the purple fireball in the sky.
Rumble!
It was the indescribable feeling again, the emptiness of the shocking explosion, which once again slammed heavily into her heart, and with this shock, Ivy's consciousness appeared for a short period of vertigo.
But a tentacle monster was absorbed by the purple fire, and he was hit so hard, seeing that dozens of tentacle monsters were about to submerge into the purple sun one after another, Ivy had to be ruthless!
"TNND, fight!"
With a roar from the depths of consciousness, Ivy jumped into the air again, entangled a tentacle monster with her hands and feet, and fought desperately with her limbs and tentacles, while staying away from the tip of the tentacles, she really couldn't dodge the electric shock that she didn't know how many volts Ivy seemed to be more clever than this strange tentacle creature than anyone's obscene kung fu.
At this time, in the real world.
Ivy had a strange purple skin, her limbs twitching, and her mouth was spitting out unsyllable sounds, as if she was having terrible nightmares.
The female archer who was taking care of her on the side looked solemn: "That demon is eroding her spirit!"
"Think of a way!" Beludi urged urgently.
She had already learned from her conversations with several people that the Templars were hunting down a wanted criminal who had killed hundreds of innocent civilians, and that her teacher had been caught up in the fray, and had become a nosy citizen.
This wanted criminal is not only strong, but also a master of soul spells!
Soul spells not only require extremely high spiritual talents, but the process of cultivation is also very difficult, and there are very few people who practice soul spells, but once this kind of person appears, it will inevitably be extremely difficult to deal with.
For example, he actually used his spirit to corrupt others when he could be separated from the body.
"Let me come!" the short-haired female knight took a flute from her bosom and played a gentle music.
Listening to this voice, everyone suddenly had the illusion that even the passage of time had become slow, and the tense feelings were fully soothed.
Only the old man's face changed drastically: "No, Midosi, as the most likely to become the next saintess, you can't overdraw the power of holy grace for an ordinary girl here!"
fourteen
Magic and vindictiveness all have their own set of rules, but the power of divine grace possessed by the Templars is completely unfathomable.
As long as the believers pray, they will receive the power of divine grace, and some believers inexplicably have more divine grace than others, but if you examine his body or words and deeds, you will find that he may not have the best physique, and the number of prayers may not be more than other believers, and there is no reason why he has a stronger power of divine grace than others!
These lucky ones can only be referred to by their peers as "chosen ones".
Midos, the short-haired girl known by the old man as having the potential to be a saint, is the best of the "chosen ones".
The effects and ways of using Divine Grace are also special.
In terms of effects, the most typical phenomena such as the regeneration of limbs and the resurrection of the dead are miraculous even in the eyes of the strong at the peak of magic and fighting spirit, and other strange situations such as building a palace out of thin air and making the river flow backwards often occur.
And what makes those old scholars who have been studying magic for hundreds of years vomit blood the most, the way to use this divine grace power is simply illogical to the extreme!
All the believers have to do is pray.
Yes, you don't have to know the rules of the star map, you don't have to calculate the combination of magic runes, you don't have to worry about the principle of the interaction of various magical elements, you just need to communicate with the worshipping holy light gods, and sincerely think: "Great god, let my wish come true!"
Your wish has come true!
Of course, there are very few Holy Sees that can actually cause such miracles, because although the Church of Light has almost all the power of the world, there has been no petition from all the parishioners, and the world is completely peaceful.
Midos did not do any complicated examination or treatment except for communicating the power of divine grace with the sound of the flute, she just thought reverently: "Merciful God, save this innocent girl." ”
Back to Ivy's perspective again**************
"I remember what these tentacle monsters are, they look like neuronal cells!" Ivy was inspired by the illustrations in her junior high school biology textbook.
"It's just that the image is close, and it's not scientific to say it, but even this kind of thing has happened, so there's no need to be surprised when you see anything. By the way, this glowing ocean, is it my sea of consciousness?"
Although Ivy had some enlightenment, it didn't help her much in her battle with the tentacles.
With all her strength, Ivy finally pushed a tentacle monster back to the Sea of Light, or the Sea of Knowledge.
But at the same time, dozens of tentacle monsters are already about to be fused with purple fireballs again!
"It's an impossible task, but it's just a matter of fighting. With a hint of despair, Ivy used her hands and feet again, scuffling with another tentacle monster that was slowly floating into the air. ...,
I don't know how many times I've gotten started, but I feel more familiar with the movements of this tentacle monster, and my perception is more sensitive.
Hundreds of them were caught, right?
But I'm afraid there are thousands of them absorbed!
Ivy even felt that the empty shock that the tentacle monster fed back after being absorbed by the purple light was no longer as uncomfortable as it was at the beginning, could it be that she was used to it?
The movements became numb and mechanical, what Ivy thought in her heart at this time, what her body did, was simply to press these nerve cell-like tentacle monsters back to the sea of knowledge!
Her movements are becoming more and more efficient.
However, no amount of effort is like a grasshopper shaking a tree, and the hecticism of a small figure can never stop groups of tentacle monsters from floating into the air.
In a trance, Ivy seemed to see more and more components of the colorful ocean of light and cold colors under her, gradually leaning towards sad blue and desperate purple.
What would happen to me if all the nerves got into that purple fireball?
Become an idiot?
Maybe my situation is more suitable to be called a brain or a cripple?!
Just when she was getting more and more tired, and she didn't even have the strength to laugh at herself, and she was about to lose consciousness, a faint flute sound came from her ears inexplicably?
The flute was faint, but it was like a small prelude to a magnificent symphonic poem by a whole royal orchestra, and soon the magnificent hymn that followed!
The ocean of light, which Ivy thought was the sea of knowledge, was surging like boiling water.
From the bottom of the sea of knowledge, a golden light was transmitted, piercing the purple fireball in the air!
The fireball skyrocketed, spreading across the entire sky, and then shrunk suddenly, turning into a small pale blue fireball about a meter in diameter.
After the purple fireball changed, the nerve cell-like tentacle monster no longer left the sea of consciousness, although there were still some about a few hundred of these things floating in the air, but they were all in a static state.
For no reason, Ivy felt a sense of relief, and she fell back into the sea of light, as if she had been awakened from a dream in the middle of the night, and gradually fell asleep.
