Mage Adam

If you want to find a way to counteract this magic, you must first understand the principle of magic.

This is a process from zero to one, and it is also the biggest obstacle to eradicating the virus. Adam needs to find an entry point.

At this time, Master Black's words emerged in his consciousness: "Anti-Mage needs to torture humans and souls countless times to observe despair, so as to complete the promotion of the soul..."

"What exactly is despair?" Adam murmured silently to himself. He thought of the feeling of no way out and no way out when he was hunted down. If he realized something, it was not enough, the despair was not deep enough, and it was just a situation An emotion produced by the underlying thinking. This emotion was constantly suppressed and chopped by logical thinking to keep calm at that time. Its intensity was not enough for Adam to engrave it in his memory.

Looking at the gray waves in all directions, Adam used telekinetic power to protect his body and walked into the waves.

After stepping into the wave and getting close to the gray, Adam discovered that this magic is not a manifestation of energy, but another concept that he does not know how to define for the time being. Every dot in the gray is a soul, they have no mind, no fixed form, but are twisting and changing all the time.

The negative emotions they constantly exude form the gray tone, and each point is trying to expand itself and devour others all the time.

Adam is like a drop of water dripping into hot oil, instantly arousing the reflection of the entire oil pan, countless souls frantically rushing towards him, the endless breath of despair completely surrounded him, tearing his telekinetic barrier fiercely , the distorted faces showed him the pain of the master's life, Adam thought of the creatures of the abyss, the kind of disordered creatures with reduced entropy. Ancient magic simulated the entropy reduction system. No wonder this kind of magic cannot improve. No wonder they were eliminated by the mainstream and abandoned by the ether. This is a system that is not beneficial to the world or the plane at all.

Adam found that doing so was not very useful. Although he could see the 'point' of pain, he didn't know where this pain came from, and what kind of despair it would form.

"To observe despair, or to experience despair?"

Adam gently stretched out a little bit of perception, trying to touch those 'points', the desperate soul gnawed at him crazily, completely irrational.

The soul felt the pain, but Adam didn't care. In the next second, he made an astonishing move, dispelled the telekinetic barrier, only maintained his sanity, and then let Gray bite his soul.

Adam's soul received countless information, which cannot form a complete memory, but the deepest and most desperate fragments of these souls before death.

Homes were destroyed before their eyes.

Parents and children are slaughtered but they can do nothing about it.

Loved ones are insulted and commit suicide.

A lifetime of effort becomes a laughable joke.

I thought that hope was right in front of me, but after I passed it, I found that nothing had changed.

Experience the most severe torture and bear the unbearable pain of life.

All kinds of despair washed over Adam's soul over and over again, and countless information ravaged, gnawed, and devoured in Adam's soul. Gradually, a monster born of despair took shape in Adam's soul.

Adam felt that his consciousness began to distort and self-destruct. At this time, the monster was still weak, and Adam could wipe it out with telekinetic power, but Adam chose to stand by and let it devour despair and let it parasitize his soul grow in.

The monster had no form, but Adam could still feel its ferocious mouth opening and roaring silently, and then, all the gray waves began to gather towards Adam.

Adam's soul is divided into two parts, usually the last sanity protected by telekinetic power, while the other half is the twisted body of the parasitic monster.

It made its first impact on Adam.

Adam found himself in a dilapidated city, wearing clothes that could not cover his body, surrounded by ruins,

Gunpowder smoke filled the air, corpses littered the field, and there were many people buried in the corpses in the dark, and the faces of those who slumped casually on the ground were numb, as if they didn't care about their own life or death at all.

Adam walked slowly on the street, crushing the stumps of unknown people under his feet. Suddenly, Adam felt deep malice, and his eyes hidden behind a wall exuded cruel dimness, and he turned around and walked towards the wall.

Someone behind the wall was startled. It seemed that he didn't expect Adam to find him, but hunger fueled his inner madness. He rushed out from behind the cover, raised his arm as thin as a firewood, and rushed towards Adam. There was nothing in his open mouth. The salivation is low, but the blood after the skin is dry and cracked.

Adam stood there without moving, allowing the man's fist to hit him, but he was so weak that he was ejected by Adam's body's self-defense.

"What are you going to do?" Adam asked softly, then continued to look behind the wall.

The man crawled towards Adam on the ground, and there were unspeakable words in his mouth: "Hungry, hungry, eat, eat..." The man bit Adam's foot, and all his teeth were shattered. , blood spattered, he greedily drank his own blood, his haggard face was filled with perverted satisfaction.

Adam didn't attack him, but he couldn't stand up anymore, Adam stepped back silently.

The rest of the people hiding behind the wall stumbled out, threw themselves on the fresh corpse frantically, bit down on it with their teeth, tore it up with their hands, and used all the methods they could do to eat up the corpse that was still alive.

Adam suddenly felt a little weak, and a ray of hunger began to take shape in his body.

He didn't care and continued walking in the city.

He saw starving parents swap their own children for the rest and then eat the other children. He saw someone collecting stumps on the ground and randomly stuffing them into their mouths. He saw some strong men picking up dead bones on the ground and raising flames, and together they killed the elderly and children and cooked them. They looked at each other vigilantly, snatched the food from the pot and devoured it greedily, and then yelled at the women behind them. vent.

He saw armored soldiers driving away hungry people with knives and guns, yelling and cursing loudly, and he also saw slightly clean women being taken away, and the mansion in the center of the city was brightly lit, singing and dancing.

As time went by, Adam became weaker and hungrier, so he came to an unoccupied bunker and sat down silently.

Then night fell, and the screams of monsters rang out from all directions outside the city, and with a burst of flames rising high, they frantically attacked the city.

The soldiers appeared again, drove everyone out of the city, formed a human wall, and let the monsters tear them apart and ignored them.

Then the Master Mage appeared. He sat on a sedan chair lifted by eight people and climbed up the city wall. All the people who survived looked at him hopefully, expecting the Master Mage to rescue them.

The mage made a move, a bloody ball of light condensed in front of his staff, but the next second they found that the mage's magic fell on their bodies, their flesh and blood exploded, and under the effect of the magic, they attacked the monster. go.

Adam hid in the dark and saw this scene completely.

For a whole night, the mage repelled the attack of the monsters by relying on the flesh and blood of the common people.

The next day, just as the sun was shining, the monsters retreated, and the soldiers reappeared, driving the civilians back to the town.

Adam grew weaker.

 …

The trial will not stop because of the death of several apprentices. The one-month period is set by Dean Victor. No one in the entire Moldo tower can violate it except the tower owner. The two mages brought Adam back to the mobile home Among them, he threw it aside and continued his leisurely life.

They suddenly stared at Adam at the same time, and the fire elemental mage said: "Kino, it seems that the little guy is dying."

Adam's body began to radiate gray aura. From the mage's point of view, this was the result of the soul being swallowed and assimilated. He stretched out his hand regretfully, wanting to destroy Adam completely.

The mage named Jino didn't stop him. Only the living Adam has the ability to bring him benefits, and the dead Adam is worthless.

At the moment when the flames were about to burn Adam's body, a sudden change occurred, and the transparent and qualitative thought power was spontaneously stimulated, competing with the gray breath for space little by little.

Master Jino waved his hand to block the flames with a torrent of metal, and said, "Wait, Ryan, he's still resisting."

Master Ryan scattered the flames and said, "Although it's just a mouse's magic, it's a big mouse's magic after all. Do you really think the apprentice can resist it?"

Another stronger and more cohesive thought power appeared on Jino's body. It gently lifted Adam and placed him in the distance. The breath of negative energy made the mage feel very uncomfortable. Afterwards, he said to Mage Ryan : "Haven't you read his mind-power meditation method?"

Naturally, Master Ryan did not. Due to the accumulation of knowledge and the gap in vision, most of the research results in the apprenticeship stage can only be used as a reference for official mages, and their practical value is very low. Out of this kind of thinking, Master Ryan has never understood Nian power.

"Oh?"

"This kind of power is very good. Its meaning is not to use it directly, but to control it." He took out a piece of metal and wrapped it with telekinesis. The metal instantly decomposed into small volumes, and then became smaller and smaller, and finally Breaking it down completely, "Look, here it is, this ability has a huge impact on my research."

Master Ryan looked at Jino with great interest. It would not be miraculous if this scene happened in the laboratory. It could be easily done with experimental equipment, but now Jino did it with pure mental power.

"Psychic power is the power of the soul. Ordinary apprentices have low-quality spiritual power and cannot resist the curse of despair, but maybe this little guy can. And you know, he is an apprentice of the academy, and we are the contract mages of the tower, It would be good for all Tower mages if he survived and continued to develop his meditation methods."

Master Ryan shrugged noncommittally, and said, "Then wish him good luck."
