Chapter 150 Devouring Magic
The evening breeze blew by, bringing with it a fishy smell.
Zhang Yi's windbreaker swayed in the wind, and in the cool wind, some of the worries in Zhang Yi's heart also disappeared.
Now is not the time to worry about outsiders who shouldn't be here. Zhang Yi put away the batarangs, then shifted his gaze to the unconscious pests on the ground.
He didn't know how cowardly this guy was. He was scared to death by Kara and didn't wake up for so long. If he hadn't been able to feel the powerful life energy in his body, Zhang Yi almost thought that this guy had been scared to death.
"Are you going to start? Do we need to step back?" Pietro asked curiously.
"It's not necessary. This is not a complicated matter, but I really can't be disturbed." Zhang Yi made a decision, and then, clusters of green flames appeared in the air.
These fireflies, like will-o'-the-wisps, were burning in the air and floating around Zhang Yi.
In Carla and Pietro's vision, these things seemed to be moving according to a certain established route, but when they looked carefully, they could not see any rules at all, as if these flames were proceeding without any logic. Irregular movements.
And when they withdrew their attention and watched casually, the feeling of careful and regular action appeared again.
"Magic depends on talent, I guess." Pietro leaned close to Kara and whispered. "No matter how many times I see it, I still think this thing is so amazing. I always wanted to be a wizard because, you know, I learn very quickly."
"It's not that easy. As you said, magic requires talent. This cannot be understood by having a super brain. John once said that witchcraft and magic originate from imagination and vision. Zhang is very good in this regard. Excellent." Kara said calmly.
Pietro nodded solemnly after hearing this. After all, he was able to persist in practicing alone in no man's land for seventeen years. This kind of perseverance is not something ordinary people can achieve. At the same time, Zhang Yi is too 'peculiar'.
This does not mean that Zhang Yi behaves strangely or talks nonsense. On the contrary, Zhang Yi is an extremely logical thinking person. But for some reason, Pietro always feels that he will not have any difficulties and problems when he is with Zhang Yi. Pressure, as if everything can be solved.
Moreover, Zhang Yi has always been very mysterious. He never talks about his past to anyone. It is like he suddenly broke into this world, and he has always been watching these multiverses with a more macroscopic vision.
Regarding Zhang Yi's past, Pietro himself was too sensible to delve into it. He firmly believed that Zhang Yi was by no means an ordinary person.
Pietro and Carla's whispered exchanges did not disturb Zhang Yi who was casting spells. At this time, he had already entered the state of casting spells.
The fingers of his left hand were still maintained. At the same time, Zhang Yi reached out his right hand and stretched it in the direction of the harmful beast. His fingers were spread out, as if he wanted to grab something from the void.
Following this move, the beast's body began to tremble unconsciously for an instant. This trembling was not caused by the beast's own consciousness, but rather seemed to be affected by some strange force that could not be observed with the naked eye.
The green flames became brighter, and Zhang Yi also concentrated on the harmful beast. This extension of his will allowed Zhang Yi to better discover and seize the life force from the harmful beast's body. .
With the help of magical energy, Zhang Yi's mental power gradually invaded the spiritual world of the pest, which was protected by a soul curtain and where all the consciousness of the pest gathered.
With a thought in Zhang Yi's mind, his powerful mental power instantly broke through the curtain barrier. All kinds of complicated and incomprehensible information filled the pest's spiritual world in the blink of an eye, and at the same time, the transcendent energy in his body was stimulated.
His right hand suddenly grasped the air, and the next moment, green fluorescence burst out from the pest's body.
Immediately afterwards, a ferocious-looking, translucent rat-headed monster was pulled out from the face of the harmful beast, as if Zhang Yi had ripped out his soul with his bare hands. The scene was extremely spectacular.
"Hi ha——!"
Zhang Yi opened his mouth slightly and let out an inhuman roar. At this moment, the teeth in Zhang Yi's mouth suddenly lengthened and became sharper, and his pupils also turned blood red at this moment.
The shadow of the rat man kept struggling, but under the cover of the dark green flames, his resistance had no effect. He could only be torn closer and closer to Zhang Yi by an unstoppable force. .
Seeing this scene, Pietro and Carla couldn't help but widen their eyes. This was the first time they had seen such a scene. If they didn't know Zhang Yi well enough, they would definitely think that this was a black man who fell into madness. The magician is making sacrifices to the evil god.
In fact, their understanding is not wrong.
What Zhang Yi is performing is a very ancient witchcraft, or ancient magic. This is an ancient magic that exists in the laws of the ancient gods themselves. It allows the user to devour the energy of other creatures that are weaker than themselves. Feed yourself back.
This devouring witchcraft was born before magic was divided into black and white. It is more like the original power of the ancient gods. The big fish eats the small fish, and the fittest survive. Only the surviving ancient gods can become more powerful.
However, this kind of witchcraft is also very dangerous to use, because when constantly devouring other creatures, the devourer itself will not only obtain the powerful energy, but also be affected by the consciousness of the devoured person. If he cannot hold on firmly, One's own sanity, then it is very likely that he will become a madman.
And this is also the fundamental reason why this magic is defined as black magic.
As for the creator of this magic, it is the author of the Dark God Book, who is known as one of the evil old gods. This is a powerful black magic that he learned from the God Eater who also existed in ancient times. .
However, this magic is not difficult to use. In other words, among wizards, the upper-level ones have a particularly strong suppression force on the lower-level ones. As long as the ability is strong enough, even ordinary wizards can forcibly seize the magical energy of other wizards.
This point has also been shown in Doctor Strange's movies. After Baron Mordo betrayed Karma Taj, he has been seizing the magical energy from other wizards in an attempt to subvert the wizard's influence on reality.
But in Zhang Yi's memory, the most famous user of this magic was the Supreme Mage Doctor Strange.
In order to change the 'established time point' of Christine's death, Strange in that universe began to learn devouring magic, hoping to gain powerful power by devouring demons from other dimensions to change what happened. .
And in the end, he failed, and he became the last living thing in that cosmic reality.
