The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 407 The Sacrifice Arrives

Since the Devourer is a creature, it naturally has the temperament of a creature. Even if it is easier to control because of the transformation of the Via people, the nature of the creature itself will not change.

When Leo was taking care of the Devourers on the spaceship, he had dealt with the Devourer riots more than once. Although in these incidents, he only played a supporting role, it was the souls on the spaceship that really dealt with the Devourers. He is not a psychic, but he was present during the whole process, so he also fully recorded the way the psyker dealt with the devourer, and fully understood the weakness of the devourer.

Just now, Leo didn't take action immediately, but watched the female leader and the Devourer fight, just wanting to know whether the Devourer's behavior and weaknesses would also change due to the mutation after the Devourer mutated.

After observation, he found that the devourer in front of him was exactly the same as the devourer without mutation, except that his body had become larger, he had added some deformation abilities, and he had no experience in using psionic powers. Digestion in the body is dominated by strong acids.

As for its weakness, it is still obvious, just like the corrosiveness of strong acid is more powerful than that of ordinary devourers, but it can still be blocked with spiritual energy, and its fatal weakness is still there even though it has an extra layer of protection due to the mutant body , and when the body of the devourer changes drastically, there will be gaps in that layer of protection, allowing Leo enough time and space to get rid of it.

Leo, who had already rushed in front of the Devourer, did not use the psychic energy field, which was the most resistant to acid, because the method of this psychic energy field was figured out by himself, and the lack of effective methods made the consumption of psychic energy much faster than The other psionic skills are much bigger, and the gains outweigh the benefits, so he prefers to use the Quen Seal, which also has the effect of protecting the whole body and consumes less.

I saw that under the action of Kun En's seal, a layer of force field protection was formed around his body. When the acid fell on it, it immediately aroused the rebound of the seal, making a crackling sound, and bounced the acid away to prevent the acid from falling. The liquid adheres to the surface of the force field causing continuous consumption of the force field.

Afterwards, he who had rushed under the Devourer jumped up high, and raised his fist to hit the joint of the arm of the nearest skeleton. The power of his evolved body was magnified by the twin fists, plus The simplest impact spiritual energy is attached to it, and all kinds of power are more than doubled by the amplification effect of the Gemini Glove itself, so that his fist has the power almost like a powered mortar.

Although the skeleton arm from the giant is very hard, and it is also protected by the devourer's rough spiritual energy field, it still cannot stop Leo's fist. The entire joint is directly smashed into pieces, and the impact spiritual energy has also carried out secondary damage. , directly broke the bone with a diameter of about six meters.

Although the Devourer's perception was obscured by Alice's ability, it was still able to perceive the impact of a broken arm and react, and various nearby arms and feet attacked in that direction indiscriminately.

It's just that Leo, who has rich combat experience, quickly moved to other places after breaking the joint bone, easily avoiding the attack of the devourer, and found the second target.

In this way, Leo moved quickly under the Devourer, constantly attacking the Devourer's arms and feet, each attack would make an arm and foot completely inactive.

Although the Devourer has a lot of arms and feet, they can't withstand damage like Leo's. The breakage of a large number of arms and feet makes it even more cumbersome, let alone attacking Leo. The whole body is very difficult, and it can no longer attack Leo with its arms and legs, it can only increase the secretion of acid to form more acid rain.

However, the increase in acid rain also made the stone platform below corrode more seriously. A large amount of gravel cracked due to corrosion, and collapsed under the pressure of the lava flow below, continuously reducing the area of ​​the platform. The huge body of the devourer stood a little bit, so don't even think about turning around.

And the skeleton bridge connecting outward was also destroyed in the attack of acid rain and devourers under Leo's conscious guidance, completely cutting off the connection between this platform and other surrounding platforms.

Although the mutated Devourer didn't have much intelligence, the extremely narrow platform was enough for it to realize that its body was too large in this environment, so it took the initiative to discard some immobile limbs and shrink down. Make yourself more flexible.

When the Devourer began to adjust his body according to the environment, Leo also confirmed through the spiritual network that the opportunity he had created had come. When the Devourer changed its body structure, the neurons on its back were protected from layers by layers by the crushed special bones. The protection is exposed, although the exposed area is not large, there is only a small gap, but it is enough for Leo to do a lot of operations.

I saw that Leo supported the devourer to change his shape. When he was not attacking, his legs quickly stepped on the skull column, and the soles of his feet were attached with spiritual energy, allowing him to run as fast as flat ground on the almost vertical skull column. When he reached a certain height, he spotted the position of the neurons on the back of the devourer, flew down there, and at the same time, the glove in his hand instantly changed into a sacrificial knife mode, stabbing straight at the neurons.

The biological instinct of the Devourer sensed that his weakness was extremely dangerous, so he reacted instantly, and immediately prepared to quickly close the bone armor that was still cracked just now, but although its reaction was already very fast, for Leo who had planned it earlier But still very slow.

The arm holding the sacrificial knife went directly through the gap in the bone armor, which was nearly one meter thick and more important than the armor of a battleship, and stabbed the sacrificial knife firmly into the neurons.

The giant skeletons that make up the huge body of the Devourer lost control instantly after the neurons were destroyed, and all fell in a scattered manner. The slimy body of the Devourer also began to harden uncontrollably, and the outward flow of acid also stopped. It is secreted outward and transformed into another corrosive liquid, which starts to corrode the body of the devourer inward, and the corroded remains become a blocky substance that breaks away from the body of the devourer and falls to the ground.

It's just that the change of the Devourer's body has not yet reached the final step due to the destruction of neurons, the power of the sacrificial knife has spread to the Devourer's whole body, and a force in the void instantly fixes the entire space and time. As if a huge eyeball containing an entire galaxy appeared out of thin air above Leo's head, he looked at the sacrifice, and then at Leo who couldn't move or even think because time and space were frozen, and then his attention was always on Leo turned around, as if in his eyes Leo was a better sacrifice.

At this time, suddenly there is a force around, this force is not strong, but it contains some rules, not affected by the power of the galaxy's eyeballs, it passes through layers of power barriers, and injects into the eyeballs.

The eyeball immediately showed a humanized displeasure, and then stayed on Leo's body for a while, a drop of starlight-like liquid seeped out from the eyeball, landed on Leo's body, and then took it away as a gift. The devourer of the sacrifice and the power to fix time and space around him disappeared directly above Leo's head.

At the moment when the eyeball disappeared, the surrounding environment returned to normal, but the Devourer that existed at the previous moment had disappeared. Only some giant bones on the ground and the massive material left by the Devourer after being corroded can prove that it existed just now Pass.

"What's going on here?" Both Alice and the female leader looked at the broken platform that had been emptied across the street, not knowing what happened just now, especially Alice, who was still trying her best a moment ago. She used her ability to cover the perception of the devourer, but the next moment the monster under the influence of her ability disappeared, as if it had never existed.

However, compared to Alice and the female leader, the Eyeless Mammy, who was always trying her best to find the weakness of the Devourer, showed a weaker expression on her face, and her eyes towards Leo became a little weird, and When everyone was not paying attention to her, she naturally wiped away the two lines of blood and tears flowing from her eyes, and then moved to the side of Alice and the female leader as if nothing had happened, with a look of surprise on her face.

Although the eyeless mother didn't look abnormal at the moment, she already felt an unparalleled shock in her heart.

Just when time and space were blocked by the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness, the Eyeless Nanny spied the image of the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness through the ability given to her by the victim. Although it was only a vague influence, it had already had an almost devastating impact on her soul, almost shattering her soul. Fortunately, the power left by the victim protected her and allowed her to support her. Come down, and seal all perceptions in time, so as not to suffer further damage.

Also because of the impact on the soul, part of the damage was directly applied to the body, among which the damage to the eyes was the most direct and the heaviest. Although her eyes looked normal now, they had actually received irreparable wounds. Damage, her eyesight has been weakened to the extreme, and she can only see some things clearly. Fortunately, she does not need her eyes to recognize things in the outside world. The damage to her eyes will not affect her actions in any way.

On the other hand, Leo was still immersed in the fact that the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness actually appeared during the sacrifice just now.

Although when the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness appeared, all the time and space around him were fixed, according to common sense, Leo should also be among the fixed objects, and he would not have any perception of the outside world, but the original source in Leo's body The blood and the abyss snake eyes of the palm have an effect, helping him resist the power that seals time and space, allowing him to still feel the things outside, so he can know the attention that the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness puts on him , can also feel the invisible force that appeared out of thin air and drove away the turbid and light master.

It's just that these things are insignificant compared to the marks left on him by the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness.

Leo's body already contained a lot of imprints of the gods. When these imprints were integrated into his body, he would not bring him any abnormal sensations, but after the imprint of the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness was injected into his body, his body would actually produce A feeling of fullness, as if he had eaten enough, made him have to spend a while to adapt to the changes in his body.

After feeling the fullness of his body eased, Leo picked up some lumps left by the devourers on the ground, and then mobilized his psionic energy to create a traction rope, pulling him from the isolated platform to Alice and the others. on the platform.

"What happened just now? Where is that monster?" The female leader couldn't help being curious, and when she saw Leo standing still, she couldn't wait to go up and ask.

"It's been resolved." Leo said simply, without making a more detailed response, he said to Alice: "Let's continue on the road!" As he said, pointing to the surroundings that were violently shaken, he said: "Again Continue to vibrate, I'm afraid this place won't last long."

Although they were full of doubts, Alice and the others didn't ask further, because they discovered that the frequency of the earthquake had increased a lot during the battle just now, and the intensity of the vibration was also much greater.

On the surface, it seems that the surrounding skull pillars are still intact, and it feels that they should be able to support it for a long time, but no one will take chances, so after Leo's voice fell, Alice immediately turned around and continued to lead the way, leading the way. Lead the crowd towards the entrance to the lava lake.

Perhaps because of the Devourer, the group of people did not encounter any enemies on the road afterwards, not even the corpse of the giant spirit.

After passing through the lair door of the Hall of Valor, the group entered a relatively small passage.

The ground of this passage is not made of obsidian, but a metal plate. There are some octagonal concave holes densely distributed around the passage, which looks like a huge honeycomb as a whole.

Alice and the others didn't have any special feelings about these things around them, they just thought it was a special construction style of the Guha giants, but Leo knew very well that this passage should be a rescue cabin for the Via people, and from the current situation Look, there are people in all the rescue cabins, and they are all dead Via people.

At this time, Leo couldn't help but feel puzzled. The main reason for his confusion was that he discovered a time loophole that he had ignored before.

Because according to his previous guess, the Holy Hall and the Hall of Valor should have been built by the giants of Guha, mainly to bury their dead clansmen. The construction time should have been built together with the Black City, but now he suddenly thought of building the Black City This volcano was transformed after the death of the leader of the Guha giant, and the leader of the Guha giant died in the war with the Weiya people. After the war, the Weiya people and the Guha giants who entered the Devil Nebula all perished.

In this way, the question arises, who built the black city, and who built the white city, if analyzed according to this chronological order, Leo's previous judgments about the black city, white city, etc. have all been overturned.

Such a big time gap is so obvious that you can detect it with a little thought, but he ignores it abruptly, as if it doesn't exist at all. This situation is really unreasonable.
