Chapter 371 Is this an illusion? ! (4200)
In the end, Qiangwei went up the mountain with Kaxiu.
This is what she said: Hunters carry out their mission and there is no reason to back down. What's more, she is also a Bai Yao level hunter. It wouldn't be a problem to help Ka Xiu clear out some miscellaneous soldiers.
Ka Xiu believed it, and it didn’t matter whether Qiangwei followed or not. Although he has just arrived in the retrospect era at this moment, his courage can already unleash his power through special methods. According to Kaxiu's own estimation, it is not a problem to reach the point where he becomes a boxer. That is, a level comparable to a peak Bai Yao hunter or an ordinary dark gold hunter, and only below six hunters.
If the seventh-ranked hunter in the Dark Hunting Organization cannot handle such a small task, then Kaxiu can end this retrospective training now. What's more, he has a trump card. If he encounters real danger, Ka Xiu can burst out his energy with all his strength once and briefly return to his peak.
The strength of top fighters is enough to eliminate all dangers that seem difficult to defeat. Although after that, Bai Kui's body may be riddled with holes and be close to being scrapped.
Card repair will not be used unless absolutely necessary.
At 5:10 in the afternoon, the sun sets below the horizon, and only the orange afterglow shines through the atmosphere in the clouds. Three or four rows of birds flew by, and a sense of deep twilight darkness was about to fall.
On the path up the mountain, two figures gradually disappeared into the woods. Five minutes passed, and the outline of the castle appeared in front of us.
This is a very typical old castle with a common dome structure. It's just that it has been in disrepair due to weather and sun, and many tiles have been broken and peeled off, and moss is everywhere. It looks like the overall tone is darker and some of the paint has faded.
At the door, Ka Xiu withdrew his gaze. Qiangwei next to her reminded: "Master Bai Kui, it is already dusk at the junction of day and night. If there is a group of dark creatures inside, I am afraid they are close to waking up..."
"Maybe they sensed our approach."
"Huh?" Ka Xiu frowned when he heard this. He keenly captured the key information in Qiangwei's words.
"Day, night, awake?"
The memories of Bai Kui that Ka Xiu inherited did not have these. Every time he went back, there were only some vague fragments of the original owner.
Kaxiu knew the flow of some major events and some unforgettable memories. As for other memory fragments, it is like a dream, no matter how hard you think about it, you can't think clearly.
It's like being covered with a thick layer of black gauze.
The two of them did not enter the Knight's Castle directly. It took Kaxiu a minute of insinuations and exchanges to understand what Qiangwei just said. During the Hongli Empire, dark creatures did not move during the day! They are only active during night time!
This is completely different from the Hong Le Federation period.
The dark creatures at Kashu's time were clearly able to walk freely in the sun. Even though they also hated the sun, they were not restricted from being unable to be exposed to sunlight or being weakened during the day.
He just heard Qiangwei's description and thought he heard it wrong. He thought it was just a characteristic of a certain kind of dark creature that lay dormant during the day and emerged at night. But after understanding it in detail, I understand that all dark creatures are like this!
Photophobia, fear of light, severely weakened during the day.
What's more, they will turn into ashes when exposed to the sun.
I’m talking about the Vampires!
Why have the same dark creatures changed so much in a time span of about two hundred years? Obviously, according to the records of the Hongli Empire, for nearly a thousand years throughout the empire, dark creatures have been afraid of light and daytime! There must have been some events that caused earth-shaking changes.
Could it be the collapse of the Hongli Empire? !
Or is some big event happening in an unknown place?
Card Xiu immediately became alert. He felt that it might not be easy to look back at the times this time, and that he might personally experience a world-class historical process in the transcendent world. Not just the Hongli Empire, changes in the characteristics of dark creatures will affect the entire world.
Thoughts flow, only for a moment. Card Xiu immediately came to his senses and took Qiangwei towards the arch with long strides.
This tall arch is the entrance to the castle, and is made up of two buildings on the left and right that look like arrow towers. There is also a corridor between the two buildings at the top of the arch, with three windows.
Due to its abandonment, it feels inexplicably eerie.
Cross the arch and enter the interior of the castle. The space is larger than expected. The castle is not a single building, but a small complex of buildings. There is a simple and narrow passage in between.
The dead trees have lost their vitality, and their branches are like black claws.
It is obviously the summer when life is lush, but the weeds in the open space inside the castle are withered yellow, without any bright colors.
Card Xiu stood in front of a pile of rubble, his eyes slowly swept around, and he could see some obvious fighting and blood stains. This was left half a month ago, when the mission failed.
Only Bai Kui and the old hunter were left in the seven-person team.
After escaping, I got some useful information.
One: The strength of the dark creatures in the castle is underestimated.
Two: This is a rare dark creature that has never appeared before, a ghost knight wearing plate armor.
Three: What are these dark creatures, simply named Ghost Riders, guarding? Won't be leaving anytime soon.
Card Xiu also happened to encounter a mission that caused the original owner to be seriously injured and comatose in bed for half a month. It just so happens that ending this matter can be regarded as announcing a new beginning for Bai Kui.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Two footsteps sounded softly in the dilapidated corridor.
Around a corner, a surprise appeared.
At the end of another corridor, a tall figure riding a war horse suddenly turned around. No, not riding a war horse, but the form of the dark creature is a centaur and half horse. It is about three meters tall, covered in heavy armor, with some ferocious scale-like patterns on its surface. There is still a faint blue smoke surging.
Its lower body is in the shape of a horse, strong and powerful. The upper body is also a burly man, holding a bloody ax in both hands.
Judging from the appearance alone, it feels quite oppressive. But in fact, this Nether Knight is the lowest level of dark creature. That is to say, it is roughly comparable to the level of immortal blood.
Ka Xiu didn't even look at it, he raised his hand and was about to kill him. Next to her, Qiangwei took the lead and seemed to want to fulfill her previous promise to help Kaxiu deal with the miscellaneous fish. I saw her right hand quickly drawing a symbol in the air and spitting out a syllable.
The eyes suddenly turned red, and rose patterns spread out from the corners of the eyes, climbing and entangled together. In an instant, a magical wave surged out. It's like an invisible and intangible realm shrouds the surrounding area.
This is the illusion space of the illusionist, a product similar to the aura of the secret warrior. If a fighter's aura is released through spirit, then the illusion space is a field that is released based on spirit. It is the same as but different from the mind of a telekinesis master.
The Dark Hunting Organization is the official force of the Hongli Empire. It has controlled the extraordinary world for hundreds of years, and has therefore made many research and summary things over a long period of time.
In addition to the secret warriors who practice secret martial arts, there are members of the Dark Hunting Organization themselves who drink the holy spring and gain strength, and the Eye Strangers of Black Rain Villa. The power obtained by all other extraordinary beings is called source energy by the Dark Hunter organization, which is a talent that is different from ordinary people.
Source energy energy, concise and concise. Ability in origin.
There are only three types of human bodies that can be called origins.
Body, spirit, spirit.
Some people are born with special talents, and one aspect of these three sources is particularly strong. As you grow older, your abilities will naturally be stimulated.
This is innate, and there are some acquired conditions.
Or he came into contact with some mysterious artifacts, or he went to some weird places and encountered some unspeakable things. Thereby stimulating body strength and mastering source energy.
The Hongli Empire has a vast territory and a large population. The abilities of those awakened by source energy are also diverse, with many weird categories. We can only make some simple divisions of XX series.
For example, under the spiritual origin, there are categories such as illusion system, telekinesis system, and ghost system. It can be said to be flashy.
In fact, speaking of it, energy users and dark creatures are like the front and back of a mirror. Source energy users are one of the three origins that is particularly powerful. Dark creatures lack one of the origins.
And those who drink the holy spring are different from the Eye weirdos. One has a holy spring, and the other has a secret power that melts into the rain. External objects can be used to enhance the three origins of the human body, so that they can develop in free channels and be more selective.
Finally, when it comes to the secret martial artist, the secret martial artist is one. In Kashu's opinion, the most balanced and correct path is also suspected to be the oldest.
When the world was still in the barbaric era, ancient boxing techniques seemed to have appeared. As a result, it is passed down from generation to generation, and the upper limit is extremely high.
Body, spirit, spirit. None of the secret martial arts is missed, and every practice will be practiced. However, the emphasis is different at different stages of secret martial arts training. In essence, secret martial arts training is three things going hand in hand, three origins in a powerful body.
Developing human body secrets has the most comprehensive combat effectiveness.
Generally speaking, practicing secret martial arts is the best, followed by the unstable but powerful holy spring and secret soul power. All kinds of source energy are combined again, and only one of the three major gates can be cultivated, which is very extreme.
However, the Source Energy Ones are quite accomplished in their extreme category. Not even powerful secret martial arts practitioners can catch up.
For example, now, Qiangwei has shown the power of a Bai Yao-level illusionist. The moment she released the illusion space, the ghost knight running wildly in the distance suddenly stopped in place. Showing a running posture, the giant ax is frozen in mid-air.
The whole figure is like a statue, and the pupils are already dark.
It was obvious that his consciousness was dragged into the illusion space in an instant.
"Snapped."
Qiangwei snapped her fingers, quickly changed the handprints with her right hand, and finally pronounced a corresponding syllable. The ghost knight's aura suddenly became silent, and his pupils lost their luster.
"Although it is dusk now, and the light in the corridor of the castle is quite dim. But my rose space can still exert more than 70% of its effectiveness. Now this dark creature has lost its ability to move, and its consciousness has been dragged into the illusion space. All it takes is In another five to ten seconds, its consciousness will completely sink, and the body of this dark creature will die..."
Qiangwei thought secretly in her heart. She is still able to deal with this kind of dark creature that is one level lower than herself. The sky is getting dark, and the battle must be resolved before night falls. Otherwise, the dark creatures will enter an active state and their desire to kill will increase. Coupled with the dark light, vision is blocked. Even if Bai Kui is a master of illusion, I'm afraid he won't get any benefits.
"Master Bai Kui, we..." Qiangwei was about to urge her when a series of sounds of galloping horses suddenly came from the end of the road ahead.
He was suddenly attracted by the movement of the Nether Knight running just now.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Four or five figures jumped out from the corner in succession, each of them in the shape of a heavily armored knight, running at full speed like a small car.
The gravel on the ground kept shaking.
The tip of the weapon scraped against the wall, sparks emitting.
"Twilight Rose!"
Qiangwei took a step forward, traced an afterimage in front of her chest with her fingers, and uttered more than a dozen syllables in succession at the same time.
With a special rhythm, like singing.
Fingerprints flew, and the fingers overlapped to perform various difficult movements. It seems to be a basic technique that takes a long time to practice.
More powerful mental fluctuations followed the illusion.
It is necessary to drag the four or five ghost knights in front of them, emitting blue smoke, into the illusion. Unexpectedly, two more Nether Knights rushed out from the corner, four meters long, emitting blue light.
These two knights already correspond to Bai Yao level hunters.
Qiangwei secretly shouted something bad, and the next moment the illusion space was shattered on the spot. Too many enemies were dragged into the consciousness at once, especially two of the same level, and the illusion was broken.
Moreover, these two blue ghost knights are much more powerful than ordinary dark creatures of the same level, which leads to backlash.
There was blood falling from the corner of her eyes, Qiangwei felt dizzy, and was about to speak to remind Ka Xiu. But he suddenly heard a roar.
It was the howl of a strange raptor that sounded like gold and cracked stone.
In the darkness, Kashu remained as motionless as a statue. A huge blood-red figure jumped out from behind the body, and its ferocious huge wings suddenly covered most of the corridor.
The truck-sized head opened its mouth and swallowed it.
He bit the upper body of a ghost knight and cut it into two pieces with a click. The thick and simple armor was like paper, the blood was flowing rapidly, and the cross-section was bloody and bloody. The smaller half of the horse's body still rushed forward for a short distance before falling to its knees.
The vicious bird opened and closed its huge beak twice, and its searchlight-like blood-red pupils were full of greed, a desire for blood.
It let out two strange screams, opened its big mouth that was so red that it looked like it was about to drip blood, and a huge suction force came from it.
The air flow rolled in backwards, and the three men and horses could not stabilize their bodies at all. The three-meter-tall body was dragged by the suction force, and fell into the black hole-like mouth in despair.
The sound of crackling and chewing metal bones was heard.
Blood splashed out from the gap in the bird's beak like a fountain.
"!!!"
The remaining two blue netherworld knights, who could barely keep their bodies steady, were horrified and fled frantically in the direction they came from. But there was a terrifying explosion of air behind him, and the blood vulture's neck contracted like a spring and ejected, and the huge blood mouth bit it in one bite!
With a click, the two knights and half the house were swallowed. The cross-section is extremely smooth, and there is a huge "U"-shaped depression on the marble wall. Stone chips fell one after another.
Not far away, Qiangwei rubbed her eyes. Looking at the giant bloody bird feasting in the ruins, he turned to stare at Ka Xiu who didn't do anything, his expression gradually distorted.
There seemed to be a voice shouting deep inside her.
"What the hell is this illusion? Can it swallow up a building? The illusion master in the organization doesn't seem to be that outrageous! Theoretically speaking, this is impossible!"
My throat hasn't healed yet, so I barely managed to type a chapter. I have to take my time...
