The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 324 Monsters in the City

The invasion was too sudden, and the force was extremely fast, exceeding more than one spiritual level. When Leo's body's self-defense function faced this invading force, it was unable to make any effective resistance at all, and the only thing in him that could act Only the will of the ninth-level psyker will be effective.

Leo felt that this force was about to break through the psychic defense in his body and touch the spiritual core. Although he didn't know what would happen when this force penetrated into the spiritual core, he instinctively felt an extreme danger.

However, facing this situation, Leo couldn't find any effective blocking means from the existing methods.

However, the more critical the time, the calmer Leo was. At this moment, he felt as if he had returned to the place where the war was raging, and would be torn apart by a particle beam coming out of nowhere at any time.

The brain of a psychic who has evolved to the fifth level deduces at an extremely fast speed, one by one countermeasures are created and overturned, and finally the best way of survival is calculated from tens of thousands of different ways, and the time it takes is only an instant .

After getting the calculated result, Leo ignored the series of eye-catching side effects and used it directly according to the calculated method.

I saw that he used the willpower of his ninth-level psyker to control the mental power that was somewhat chaotic due to the invasion of external forces, and instantly built a stone throne in the spiritual core area, and the shape of this throne was not the same as when the blood was activated that day. Instead of the final form of the stone throne, it is the throne seen when entering the subspace when the psychic power is activated, and even the stone pillars around the throne are also constructed.

The moment the stone throne was formed, Leo immediately felt the blood in his body burn violently like ignited gasoline, and at the same time, an uncontrollable violent force was generated out of thin air from the blood, rampaging inside his body .

Leo didn't expect the sudden burst of power, and the unknown existence that invaded Leo's body was also unexpected. Just like Leo couldn't stop its invasion, it couldn't stop the impact of Leo's bloodline power either. .

A scream of psionic energy poured directly into Leo's mind, and the invading power disappeared instantly. At the same time, some disorganized knowledge poured into his mind just like the web weaver back then. In the spirit, it turned into memory fragments in the brain waiting for his sorting.

It's just that at this moment, Leo doesn't care about the memory fragments that are forcibly poured into his brain. He is now in pain from the power generated in his blood. Even he who has experienced various wars can't bear this pain. Can't help but hum out in pain.

If his willpower is not strong enough, he may have passed out at this moment, but it is not a good thing for him to be unable to coma, because he can clearly feel every pain in his body at this moment, this pain is like His body was constantly being torn apart and reassembled. This was the first time he discovered that having the willpower of a ninth-level psyker was not a good thing.

This pain made Leo feel miserable at the very beginning, and then Leo began to be able to bear the pain on his body, until his body was completely numb to this pain, a total of more than half an hour passed.

Although Leo felt that it might be better to wait for the pain in his body to completely disappear and leave after his body recovers, he heard that the fighting and roaring outside the stone tower were weakening, and it seemed that the battle outside might be over. , he wanted to leave this city quietly, and it might be difficult to return to the stone house where he was before.

So Leo had to endure the pain in his body, quickly walked down the stairs, walked out of the stone tower, carefully observed the surrounding situation, looked for a path without people, and walked towards the nearest place outside the city of Yam past.

The monsters outside the city made a lot of noise, attracting most of the people, only a few people were stationed in other places, and the patrol routes of these people were very fixed, and Leo easily passed through The direction of these people entered outside the urban area controlled by the Yam people, then identified the direction, and walked towards the megalithic house where they temporarily lived.

Unlike the empty streets before, many people can be seen on the streets at this moment.

It is not very appropriate to say that they are human beings, because the limbs of these so-called human beings are much longer than normal people, and they look like some humanoid spiders from a distance, and these humanoid monsters do not have any facial features on their faces. Layers of scaly skin wrap around the face.

Although they don't have facial features, these humanoid monsters can see, hear, and ask questions, and even make piercing screams through the vibration of their scales.

These humanoid monsters did not wander around, they were always surrounded by piles of bonfires burning in the street, and these bonfires burned not wood, but a person.

It's just very strange that even though the bodies of these people are all burnt into coke, some sparks will fly out from the cracked parts of their bodies from time to time, but they are still alive, and they are constantly struggling to get out of the fire, but no matter what No matter how hard they tried, they still couldn't climb out of the fire, they could only let out a shrill cry.

Leo's extraordinary five senses found these humanoid monsters and fires far away. If he was in good condition before, he might explore it out of curiosity, but now he is enduring all the time. The severe pain of tearing his body made him need to find a safe place as soon as possible and take a good rest.

So in order to avoid these monsters, he could only detour as much as possible, away from the detection range of these monsters, and doing so made him have to deviate from the originally planned route and go deeper into the city.

However, after walking a certain distance, and about to walk out of the blocks blocked by these bonfire humanoid monsters, Leo found that something was wrong with the surrounding buildings, because some mottled traces began to appear on the exterior of the buildings that were originally white as snow, and the surrounding incense The thick smoke turned from gray-white to gray-black, and the originally bright moonlight in the sky also had a touch of blood, and some obsidian-like parasite creatures could be vaguely seen wriggling on the moon.

Leo felt that something might happen if he continued walking like this, so he stopped and looked at the surrounding buildings, and soon his sight fell on a giant stone house similar to the stone house he had stayed in before.

"Hey! Here comes another fool who dares to leave the safe house at night." Just as Leo walked into the stone house, a gloomy voice came from the small apartment building in the stone house and sneered.

"Looks like there's another good show to watch." Another person said gloatingly.

Immediately afterwards, I saw pairs of eyes sticking to the gaps in the windows of the small apartment building, staring at Leo who was standing not far from the entrance of the stone house.

Leo frowned when he heard the words, ignored these gazes, walked to a house without lights, and was about to open the door and enter the building.

However, what surprised him was that the wooden door, which looked very fragile, remained motionless under his strength, as if there was an invisible force clinging to the surface of the wooden door.

A vicious voice came from behind the door, yelling at Leo: "Go away! I don't want to be implicated by you, you idiot who wants to kill himself." After seeing Leo ignore his words, he continued to push He opened the door and shouted: "Don't waste your energy, you can't come in without my permission. Instead of wasting time here, you might as well run away, as long as you don't get caught before dawn, you can survive."

Leo ignored the suggestions of the people in the house, and did not waste any more effort to push the door. Instead, he sat in the corner of the house by himself, ignoring the sights cast by the people in the windows, closing his eyes slightly to adjust his breathing, Controlling the power of nightmare and the power of gluttony combined to pinch the power gushing out of the blood, slowly wearing away the impact of this power like a millstone, relieving the pain on the body.

Although the power in the blood tortured Leo's body and made him feel pain like never before, he didn't feel disgusted with this uncontrollable power.

Because he found that the torment of this force on his body was more like a blacksmith forging iron, using extreme methods to continuously temper his body, and at the same time, it was also dissipating the sudden surge of spiritual energy in his body, erasing the spiritual energy like polishing jade The sharp edges and corners make it easy for Leo to control the spiritual energy, which greatly shortens the time for Leo to practice controlling the spiritual energy.

According to Leo's deduction, as long as it lasts like this for about three days, the uncontrolled fifth-level psionic energy in his body can be polished to a smooth shape, and he can easily perform any kind of witchcraft without using the control ring and psionic skills.

It's just that this is obviously unrealistic. Just at this moment, he already feels that life is worse than death. Let him endure the pain of tearing his body for three consecutive days. .

When Leo was sitting under the corner of the small building for more than ten minutes, a faint vibration from the ground made him alert. He immediately used the power of shadow, buried himself in the shadow of the corner, and quietly looked at the stone house. Entrance.

After a while, I saw a monster more than ten meters high appearing at the door. Although this monster looked like a complete giant, if you looked carefully, you would find that except for a huge faceless man's head, there was nothing on its body. The other parts are formed by twisting and intertwining countless humanoid monsters with long arms and legs.

These humanoid monsters are entangled with each other like hemp rope, and some of their bodies are more fused together. With every step this huge monster takes, the humanoid monsters that make up its body will show an expression of extreme pain, wanting to scream, but they scream Can't come out, struggling to get out of the monster, but none of them can succeed.

The huge monster walked to the entrance of the stone house where Leo was hiding with heavy steps, and suddenly stopped, then turned his head to look into the stone house, stretched out his head and sniffed into the stone house, as if smelling something.

Afterwards, the monster's neck began to extend outward like a snake's head, deep into the stone house.

All the people hiding in the surrounding apartment buildings fell silent. Except for a few bold people who were still lying on the cracks of the windows and looking out to check the situation, the rest of the people held their breath and did not dare to make any unusual movements.

I saw the monster's head carefully avoiding the incense brazier at the top of the stone roof, and also quickly waved its arms through the humanoid monster that made up its neck to create a strong wind, blowing away the thick incense smoke that was approaching around it, and followed it in the air. After circling a few times, it finally aimed at Leo's hidden shadow.

Immediately afterwards, the head split open to both sides, revealing a big mouth full of sharp teeth, like a poisonous snake, it burrowed towards the shadow of the house where Leo was, and opened the big mouth, it seemed that Leo was regarded as a delicious food. dessert.

However, Leo did not intend to wake up. When the monster rushed over, he directly cast the shadow jump and moved to the entrance of the stone house. Then he rushed out of the shadow and came to the monster's feet. It pierced fiercely into the humanoid monster that made up the monster's left leg and ankle.

The real eye of the pseudo-god is still unable to resist the power of the sacrificial knife. The monster in front of him looks powerful, but it is only equivalent to a third-level psychic, and it is even more unable to resist the power of the sacrificial knife. .

I saw that from the position where the sacrificial knife pierced the monster's ankle, a petrified force quickly spread, and soon spread all over the monster's body, and stretched upwards along the neck.

The monster obviously didn't know the condition of its own body. It was completely attracted by Leo's food. When it found Leo, it immediately turned its head and bit Leo.

Facing the attack, Leo didn't move at all, but stood there calmly looking at the sharp-toothed big mouth that rushed towards him. When the big mouth was only more than one meter away from him, the big mouth stopped suddenly, and followed with his head. Turned into stone together.

The situation of the monster has long been expected by Leo, but what Leo did not expect is the feedback from the turbid and light master of the sacrifice after using the sacrificial knife.

The sacrificial knife melted quickly like ice, and the melted sacrificial knife penetrated into Leo's body from Leo's hands, and at the same time there was a mysterious mark on his arms.

Leo felt that the sacrificial knife did not disappear, but merged with his hands. As long as he wanted, he could make the three modes of the sacrificial knife appear in his hand at any time, and there was one more point, even if he didn't apply the three modes. This mode of sacrificial knife, with only his hands, as long as he thinks of sacrifice in his heart, any creature killed with his hands can be sacrificed to the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness.

Although the feedback after the sacrifice was to let the sacrificial knife be integrated into his hands, which surprised Leo, he may have been used to all kinds of power integrated into his body, so he has no dislike for this newly added power, and he has nothing against it. Favor, face it calmly like drinking water.

The result of the monster turning into a stone sculpture is a reasonable thing for Leo, but for those in the apartment who have not been able to fully integrate with the obsidian parasite, it is an incredible thing. The gaze projected on Leo was therefore full of awe.
