Well, I did a very stupid thing yesterday, and I actually pasted a small piece of text wrongly, and the whole thing went up, and now it has been modified, and I saw a duplicate friend last night, I'm really sorry.
――
"Let go of me, you soft devil who should be incinerated by the Holy Flame!"
The five senses of the Spirit Suckers are no different from those of humans, and they are even far sharper than those of humans, except that they do not have the feeling of blinking. Edward had been familiar with it for a short time after the transformation.
Therefore, he could notice that the little girl in front of him was quite delicate, her skin showed a wheat color that often moved in the sun, and her dark eyes and dark flaxen hair looked quite healthy and sunny. It's just that her thin body still has a bit of the androgynous characteristics that are unique to her age - if it weren't for the fact that the knight's training uniform on her body was a woman's style with an over-the-knee skirt, and her voice was extraordinarily sharp, Edward might have thought that this was a cute boy.
"These celestial creatures are really hungry. The imposter sucked his head and shook his head.
Of course, the advent does not care about the appearance of the recipient, as long as it is suitable for carrying the soul of a celestial creature, or it will be fine...... But this look is really a little too small. Or is it because of this that the connection between her two souls doesn't seem to be very successful either—it's clear that the human soul is dominant, and the Astral Apostle doesn't seem to be of much use other than a slight increase in her power?
So, what do you do? Identify yourself. Talk to her again?
It doesn't seem appropriate.
"What are you doing here, looking for something?" he asked casually.
Speaking of which, the plans of these Blazing Celestial Servants seem to be similar to their own...... It's just that I don't know how many guys in charge of execution they have sent in?But if there is no fragment of royal power, it is not easy to find a small thing in such a large city, and Elena with the fragment is now outside the city, how did this girl find here?
Could it be that they have come up with a more accurate way of inquiry?
"It's not about you. Let go of me, you wicked tentacle monster!" the little prey screamed, kicked, and struggled. Apparently with no intention of answering: "You slippery tentacle monster! let go of me! I'm going to kill you, throw you, throw you in the stove and bake the city...... Whoa, whoa, aaaa......a
Pity. No matter how much she made a fuss, the invisible power only tightened and tightened—and as he touched the wall of truth, Edward's power of mind control increased by another level. At least a few hundred pounds of pressure was spread out to the limbs, and even the body of a celestial bio-enhanced adult could not move lightly, let alone the slender body of this little girl.
So in addition to screaming, she could only watch her body fall a little, and as usual, she put the weapon in her hand into the monster's hand.
Reach out and take the sword. Edward shook his head.
It was not the style of the sword that the priests liked, but a delicate and ornate sword like a ceremonial ornament, with a hilt inlaid with glittering gems, and the blade was only a finger and a half wide. It seems that even a small child's strength is enough to break the sword into two pieces as long as it is held horizontally......
However, it was clearly still a murder weapon - a dull black smoke haze a layer of ominous mist on the blade, forming a smart cold light with the pale blade. Just a slight glance at it can cause a strong sense of unease to arise in one's heart. I want to look away from it.
So he put it in his pocket.
Several invisible spiritual tentacles also spread around them, slowly attaching the little girl's mind......
Is it just or should I say expected? a tenacious mental barrier that holds back the tentacles before they can go deeper.
However, it is not sturdy.
"Okay. If you don't say it, then you're of little value. You celestial creatures seem to be dead-headed, and it seems that you have only one role...... You know our recipe, don't you?" Edward wiped the corners of his mouth as he stretched out a tentacle and gently rolled out a piece of clean silk.
"What...... Recipe or something...... I didn't know!"
Of course, this was an obvious lie—the voice was so terrible that it could almost be used as a weapon, but fortunately, every voice around it had been controlled by the psychic magicians, otherwise the spirit-sucking monsters in the central square might have heard the piercing wail.
"I don't know...... It just so happens that I tell you, after all, you humans, as well as celestial creatures, will always say that we, the cannibalistic species, are so-called monsters, but in fact, this is slander......"
The counterfeit spirit sucker was slow, and the luster in his silver eyes flashed: "In fact, you will never know that the cooking of brain food is a very particular thing, and the things that determine the taste must be secreted by themselves before eating, and they must mix evenly...... It's a seemingly simple project, but it's incredibly sophisticated. In comparison, your cooking with heat and metal is really shoddy. ”
This deterrent is obviously more effective than any rhetoric - the screams of the other party suddenly mute.
The hearing of the spirit sucking monster is with the help of the slippery skin on the top of the head, and the effect of amplification is particularly good, so Edward can clearly understand the sound of the little girl's heart beating powerfully in this strange silence, the tension makes her blood flow back faster, the blood vessels on her fingers and face constrict, and the slightly black face instantly turns white and blue.
"Soft Devil! You...... You can't scare me! The big deal is to die!"
After a long pause, the little girl's lips moved, as if her tongue was knotted, and she finally squeezed out a hard sentence: "I, I'm not afraid...... I am a faithful servant of the Lord of the Dawn, and even if I die, I will eventually return to the Heavenly Mountain......"
"Oh, don't you know that the person whose head has been eaten has no soul, because the soul of man is stored in the mind, otherwise why would the person who has his head cut off ......?"
"You're a liar. I don't believe it!"
"Don't believe it, it's okay, I love this kind of food...... Did you know that the human brain secretes a ingredient called endorphins, which are the basis of our cooking...... Painful and secreted endorphins are spicy, sadness is sour. The shock is numb...... So, I think it's better that you still think you have hope to escape, because despair makes the taste bitter. That's not going to be fun. And then, you know, the best taste is fear. It was the best sweetness and I loved it the most when I ate......"
Of course, Edward, as an imposter, didn't know what kind of brain the specific fear would have, but as a psychic mancer, he knew very well that fear could effectively reduce the resistance in a target's heart.
The wavering spirit is the best way for the tentacles of the mind to take the opportunity to invade.
Well, scaring a little girl is a bit despicable. However, in order to achieve the goal, Edward did not mind doing it occasionally.
"You, you, you, you're scaring me, woo woo I won't be fooled!" the little girl's voice choked, and tears had already burst out of her eyes: "Father will take care of my soul." ”
"Oh, yes, maybe I'm just talking about it, but it doesn't matter anyway, you'll find out what happens. Don't worry, I promise you won't die until your gray matter is sucked up, and it doesn't matter if you die, I know you're just an angel attached to this body, and it's nothing to die. Ah, by the way, then you can make this feeling a little more complete, and I can also eat more to my heart's content, after all, once the creature dies, the taste will be weakened, and it is naturally better to keep the umami taste all the time. ”
"Mistress Ariel will avenge me, she will surely cut your slippery soft body to pieces! Let your soul burn in the flames......!" I'm not afraid, you'd better kill me quickly, or my companion will soon come and slaughter your stinky octopus!"
"Kill me? Where do you think this is? This is our city, a relic of the Age of Magic, and we are reinforced with psionic energy, and our defense is extremely powerful, and your companions want to come in, it is simply a fool's dream!" The psychic warlock guided quietly, the psychic ability did not require any gestures and spells, and the control voice perfectly covered the humming sound of the manifest energy.
"We've got twenty companions nearby, and they'll soon find you, the octopus, and cut you to smithereens!" the little girl seemed to calm down a little, and cried out with a crying voice, "And, Sister Elena...... No, Sister Ariel will soon be able to defeat you octopus-headed ones and send you all to Hell and the River Styx......"
Carefully guiding the direction of the spirit, but Edward suddenly frowned and turned his gaze to the side.
Amid the sound of heavy footsteps, the two guys turned from the end of the hallway, panting and running to the door, staring at the room with bubbling eyes.
"What are you two pieces of waste doing here, trying to steal something?"
"Hiss...... My lord, we hissed on patrol and found out that someone had killed a guard's hiss, so we hissed in and checked the hiss......" This scream made the two slaves tremble in unison, and after a long pause, the lizard spoke tremblingly, fortunately, the underground lingua franca was fluent in addition to a lot of hissing, and it was also higher in intelligence than the stupid-looking bear goblin next to him.
"Waste!By the time you find out what's wrong, the thief will have already fled!How many of you are here?" Edward snorted.
"It's just the two of us, he hisses and can't speak, so we want to come in and hiss......" the lizardman began, but after two bulging eyes rolled around, he seemed to suddenly remember something: "Elder Carnzback once said hiss, this place is not for anyone to hiss but him, everyone ...... They can only stop here...... Sizzle. ”
"Very smart. ”
"Hiss...... Yes, I'm the smartest lizardman, hiss, the smartest lizardman of the Nick family, ......"
The lizardman's voice suddenly stopped...... He stretched out his hand blankly, as if to grasp something, but in the end he could only fall to the ground with a thud - the terrible psychic power had destroyed him, wantonly crushing his spiritual essence. Let this poor creature lose his soul unconsciously.
And the bear goblin watched the occurrence of a qiē unconsciously, his stupid mind, and he didn't think about what had happened to his companion. It was only a reflexive look, and at this moment, his companion suddenly raised his hand, and the simple spear in his hand sneered through his eye socket. Accustomed to the back of the head!
The monster was stunned before realizing anything, but in fact, it didn't realize anything when its brain was pierced.
The corners of his mouth twitched under the hood.
But Edward hadn't done anything more. A dazzling light burst out!
"Bastard!"
The bright light pierced into the eyes like a knife blade, and humans instinctively tried to close their eyes. So I ate a straight ...... Although he immediately raised his hand to cover it, the stinging pain in his eyes made Edward curse in a low voice, and the tentacles on his face trembled......
Then, his spirit was shocked, and he couldn't help but be startled by a soft bang. In a moment's time, he spread an inert armor around his body!
After five or six breaths, his aching eyes barely opened, and Edward's mouthparts grinded, noticing that there was no change in the qiē around him, but the little captive. It's gone,
Obviously, that little girl is not as timid as she seems on the surface...... Just now Edward was distracted and his spirit was only slightly distracted, and the other party actually took advantage of this opportunity to explode with a flash. Break free from his control and escape into the secret passage!
Cursing in his heart, he could only helplessly drag the two guys at the door into the dark passage, and after a little thought, he pulled out a scroll and cast an eagle eye sharp ear technique in the shadows of this small hall. Then, I walked into the passage.
In the passageway, there was a spiraling staircase, unlit and dark.
But this was not a problem for Edward. He walked cautiously, but the staircase was extremely long, until after two hourglass scales, the bottom of the staircase in front of him gradually widened, and finally evolved into a wide corridor.
It's still pitch black. The mottled stone walls were clinging with black moss, small lizards and photophobia, and spiders crawling among the rattan webs. But the smell of age in the air had begun to thicken—the stones on the ground had fallen with a light layer of ash from weathering, which grew thicker as we progressed. Some footprints are laid out on it. Occasionally, a cyclone will lift up dust and sprinkle it down, reflecting some subtle sparkling light in the darkness.
It seems that the Psions didn't look into this place carefully?
Edward's spirit slowly tensed. He felt that the ring on his hand was stirring, and his heart became happy, excited, or rather, like he wanted to see an old friend he hadn't seen for many years...... But at the same time, another feeling slowly came to him from the darkness.
It's also a little unclear, like a kind of cold, or depressing, but it's not something that is felt by the body.
The deep corridor finally came to its end, and a thick stone door emerged in the darkness, the ancient but new patterns on the stone door seemed to sense the approach of humans, and slightly exuded a blue and silver light, and Edward's eyes hidden under the hood shrank layer by layer.
...... of the Seal Earth?
He carefully read out the twisted and strange characters on the door—in fact, he didn't seem to have seen the language at all, but he knew exactly what it meant, and even the meaning of the small print beneath it. 、
...... Don't be afraid. He is the first, the last, and the living. He died, yet he was resurrected, and was destined for eternity.
Edward took a deep breath and pushed the door with his mental power.
But the gate didn't move.
He shook his head, then reached out his left hand and pressed it against the door.
The middle finger ring lit up...... The wisps of luster, like a compressed flame, connected to his pale fingertips into fine lines that blended with the space and were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, slowly poked forward,
There was a faint sound, and in the creabling of hidden gears or hinges, the two stone gates rattled against each other, and with a choking puff of ash.
Edward waved his hand, then noticed that it was a large rotunda.
The area is the kind of mage likes the most, the wide and stunning scale, the high zenith is hidden in the darkness, and the countless blood-like lines seem to be chaotic and unusually regular coiled on the ground, countless structures of different shapes, large and small, unknown figures are interspersed among them, forming a mysterious, weird and incomparably grand figure. Reflected by the surrounding spheres of light suspended in the air, the dreamlike scene is enough to amaze every human who has set foot in this place for the first time.
His gaze fell straight to the middle of the room—in the center of the huge circle, something stood quietly.
A whole piece of transparent crystal is exuding a gentle silver brilliance, reflecting the surrounding dozens of feet, and around the surroundings, on the countless patterns that are delicately depicted, there will occasionally be some mysterious characters, but once it appears, Lixuan is decomposed, melted into some points of light, and is absorbed by the surrounding ground, a layer of flowing black, and disappears.
The darkness that appeared in the wisps of penetration was still mysterious and flickering, unlike the surrounding qiē. It gives people the illusion that this multiverse is ruined, and this thing will wander in the void forever.
He was stunned.
And at this moment, a short figure, passing by him, with a faint ripple in the air, rushed forward...... At the same time, there was a small cracking sound. (To be continued......)
