Chapter 004: Mythological Sequence - "Black Wukong"
Half an hour ago, in the bathroom.
Xia Mingwei dried his hair with a towel and looked down at his bandaged right hand.
Before he fell asleep last night, there was a sudden pain in the back of his hand that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, as if someone had forcibly ripped his skin open and struck his bones with a hammer.
At that moment, he opened his eyes suddenly, turned on the light, and saw that the skin on the back of his hand was gradually twisting and cracking, and then an imprint of blood appeared.
Xia Mingwei couldn't see what it was at all, but he could vaguely see that it seemed to be a figure, and the flesh on the back of his hand was too blurry, so he only thought about how to deal with the wound.
"Speaking of which, how are my hands now......
As he spoke, he removed the bandage that was wrapped around the back of his hand.
The bandages slowly fell, and the back of his hand was exposed to the scorching heat of the bathroom.
It was clear that the flesh and blood were still blurry last night, and at this time, the pattern of the black mark on the back of the hand was much clearer.
I seem to be able to see a rough outline.
"What's going on......"
Xia Mingwei stared at it, his face suddenly turned pale, and a shadow like a python surrounded the circular imprint, like a wreath dotted with the imprint pattern.
When his gaze touched the creepy pattern, his heart shook.
- It was clothed in armor as black as night, wore a dark crown on its head, stepped on somersault clouds, and held a club with a black gold hoop at both ends, and a black iron in the middle.
- Black hair, golden hoops, golden eyes, pointed mouth and shrunken cheeks.
Even if it deviates from the image in his memory, Xia Mingwei can see at a glance what character this pattern is related to - the Monkey King in Chinese mythology, Sun Wukong!
In Xia Mingwei's cognition, the appearance on the pattern does not seem to be Monkey King.
Insist on what he says...... This is more like a blackened version of the Monkey King.
It grinned, its eyes glowed with a deep red glow, all parts of its face except for its facial features were shrouded in dense black hair, and it wore a crown of phoenix wings and purple gold on its head, and two black feathers above the crown soared into the sky.
Not only was he wearing black armor, but even the phoenix wings and purple gold crown on his head were dyed black, not to mention the golden hoop rod that was much darker.
And, the scarlet light circulating in its eyes, this violent face like a ghost, was very different from the image of the well-known great sage in Xia Mingwei's memory.
Wait a minute...... On the back of my hand, an image of a mythical figure appeared?!
Xia Mingwei was shocked at first, and then quickly reacted.
Rather than delving into the origin of the pattern, the most important question now is: why did such a mark suddenly appear on the back of his hand?
At this time, Xia Mingwei remembered the mythical character he had just seen in the book: the flame giant Surtr.
Like Surtr, the characters who appear on the back of his hands are also mythological figures, but the former comes from Norse mythology and the latter from Chinese mythology, which are two completely different mythological systems.
Thinking about it this way, all the strange things that happened to him seemed to be related to the word "myth", and he couldn't help but wonder if there was a connection between the two.
..............
.............
Time comes back to the present.
Xia Mingwei was dripping with cold sweat on his forehead, he looked at the "Monkey King" coat of arms on the back of his hand, and thoughts flowed in his mind:
According to Aynance, there's a good chance I have two sequences at the same time.
- The first is a mythological sequence, which corresponds to the Monkey King in Chinese mythology, and it doesn't seem to be an ordinary form of the Monkey King, this pattern looks strange......
- The second sequence is a career sequence, he said that my career sequence may be related to "dreams", and I don't know what kind of performance it will be......
"You can't sit still, you have to figure out these strange things in me......"
Summerway made his goals clear.
At this time, it is unclear what attitude the "Serialist" organization will have towards an outlier that has both a "mythical sequence" and a "career sequence".
Therefore, he had to test it further and then clarify his position.
In any case, he must conceal the existence of the mythical sequence, otherwise it will definitely cause a stir among the sequencers.
Suddenly, the back of Xia Mingwei's hand lit up again.
A deep, dark light pierced through the bandage, conspicuous in the dimly lit attic, and he removed the bandage on the back of his hand to reconfirm the pattern.
At this moment, the warm glow that came from the imprint, lines of words poured into his mind, the strange thing was that it was clearly a text that he had never recognized, but Xia Mingwei could understand its meaning without mishaps.

"Mythological sequence...... Black Goku? โ
Xia Mingwei said hoarsely.
If before that, he could still convince himself that he had thought too much, then until this moment, he had to be convinced of one thing: he was a mythical carrierโan existence similar to the "Flame Giant Surtr" who destroyed his village and town in the first place!
The difference is only that the other party is a "fourth-order" mythical carrier, while he is still just a "first-order" mythical carrier, and he does not have the power to destroy the world for the time being.
"What do I have to do...... Xia Mingwei thought, "Is it really a thing to hide your identity in a group of serialists?" โ
He didn't regret agreeing to allow Anlens to enter the Sequencer Organization, because if after that, his Mythic Sequence was really as the other party said, irrepressibly advancing upward, becoming stronger, and then getting out of control.
So that he will one day become a monster, it is only a matter of time.
Instead of this, it is better to fight and join the Sequencer Organization directly through the path of Anlens, and try to see if you can find some useful information to curb the speed of the advancement of the Mythic Sequence, or find a way to master the Mythic Sequence.
Although the odds are slim, he must also give it a try.
Xia Mingwei had not been able to investigate any information about the truth about Snow Deer Town for nearly eight years, which shows how secretive the Sequencer Organization has hidden the events related to the "Myth Carrier", let alone their handling of themselves.
If this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult for Xia Mingwei to investigate the relevant information of the Serial Organizer Organization again.
Only by giving it a go can we find a way out.
Moreover, Xia Mingwei himself wanted to find the human who held the mythical sequence of "Flame Giant Surtr".
Then slaughter this person completely, in order to comfort the fathers and villagers in heaven.
