The sun is high - #120 - Chapter 119 New Changes
The mice that had been listening to the conversation between Shuge and the two quietly dispersed.
The topics discussed by these two young men brought them great pressure. These souls of the Ernst family from a hundred years ago thought that the conversation between these two young men and women would bring them some pleasure, but they continued When he opened his mouth, the discussion was about hair-raising magical academic issues.
And it seems to be related to myself.
However, the new changes that appeared in the corridor caused all the souls to shift their attention again. At the moment when the screams came, both Bernhardt and Alexandra had a thought. The urge to respond.
It was as if they were a pack of wolves that heard the call of the Wolf King.
However, at this moment, the running rat Snitch is not in a good state in Shuge’s perception, because the magic power in his body is too abundant. The current running rat is basically a “rat-shaped” balloon, and Shuge can feel it. Look, the magic power accumulated in its body is beating extremely violently, as if it will completely explode in its body the next moment!
However, this descendant of the three-tailed giant rat seemed to be unable to feel its own state at all. It let out a piercing scream and swung its tail, accurately “selecting” two of the rats from the group. It contains the blessing of the Mother Earth and is about to attack the blind mouse.
Only then did Shuge realize that Snitch’s tail had undergone tremendous changes.
Its three long tails originally only looked tough and sharp, capable of attacking like swords and long whips, but now, some sharp protrusions began to appear faintly on these tails, and this feature was something Xiuge had seen before. I also saw the three-tailed giant rats in the dream…
When these three tails successfully pierced the bodies of the two blind mice, the protrusions densely covered at the ends of the Snitch mice’s tails instantly “stretched” into sharp barbs under the stimulation of magic power. With the tail swinging hard, these barbs immediately turned into terrifying blades. With the power of the tail swinging, the two blind mice strung on them were torn apart on the spot, and the blessings of the Mother Earth that originally belonged to them were also Naturally captured by Snitch.
The sense of expansion of magic power continued to intensify as the fighting progressed.
Xiuge felt that his summoned object was now repeatedly testing the critical point of “self-destruction”…
If this situation continues, it will only be a matter of time before it explodes.
Just when Shuge made up his mind to forcefully recall the running rat, it once again let out a harsh and loud scream. Under the influence of the excessive magic power, a trace of magic power visible to the naked eye spread from the group of rats. When it came out, it swept across the entire underground floor as quickly as a wave of water.
This seemed to be a signal, or a powerful order.
Shuge discovered that when the screaming subsided, the originally chaotic rat tide had completely quieted down. Not only them, but also those who gathered around Shuge and the two of them existed as the carrier of the Ernst family’s will. The group of rats also fell into silence. Xiuge turned around and saw that the rats manipulated by his “ancestors” were now huddled together tightly and pressing their heads to the ground…
It’s like expressing worship and surrender.
In fact, all the rats left in this underground floor are now in the same state. Regardless of whether they were originally controlled by human will or the secret ritual of gods, they are all lying down quietly in the same direction at this moment.
And in the middle of them is the figure of the running rat.
This magical creature that had been following Shuge for a long time and suffered heavy damage from the battle just now had a different appearance.
Its body has grown a whole circle compared to the beginning. Now lying on the ground, it is much larger than some ladies’ pet dogs, and its fur has become fine and thick, as smooth as gray. blanket.
Not only the body shape and fur, but also the sharp claws and teeth of the running rat have also changed. Through the magic connection, Xiuge can be sure that the running rat now has sharper and stronger claws and teeth, which are derived from metal. The corrosive magic power of the disc has been deeply implanted in its body. In this case, even if Shuge does not actively inject magic power into it, it can still inject terrible deadly poison into its target.
“It’s a pity that the horns haven’t grown on the head yet…it’s still far from being the three-tailed giant rat that was truly blessed by the Mother Earth.”
Xiuge glanced at his summoned object with some regret, but this simple action caught Snitch’s attention, and the next second, a very clear feeling of dissatisfaction was transmitted along the magic connection between the two parties.
“My temper has grown a lot…”
Shuge shook his head in amusement, only to see Snitch’s tail swaying in a specific rhythm. It screamed again, but this time the sound was far less harsh and sharp than before.
Under this new “order”, all the blind rats gathered here were immediately freed from their rigid and immobile state. They retreated to both sides, leaving a spacious road and allowed themselves to run wildly. The rat walked out of it with “head up and chest out”.
However, what Xiuge didn’t expect was that his summoned object did not return directly to him.
Under his gaze, the Running Rat trotted to Wei Lin’s feet with brisk steps, and circled her ankle twice, with a flattering attitude that would make even a real cat admit defeat.
Xiuge’s eyebrows suddenly knitted together. He bent down, grabbed the fur on the back of the big rat, and lifted it directly to his eyes.
Faced with Shuge’s actions, Snicki just blinked his dark green eyes again, putting on a very innocent look.
This guy still doesn’t know how to control his thoughts and emotions, so just now, all the details of his thinking were accurately fed back to Shuge’s mind through the magic connection.
Xiuge had no idea that Weilin would gain Snitch’s trust and favor just by applying a few summoning enhancement spells to him. In this guy’s head, there was even a thought of “feeling inferior to so-and-so”. so-and-so” idea.
“Such disloyal thoughts must not be allowed. We must take a heavy blow!”
With this thought in mind, Shuge raised his finger and flicked the running rat’s nose hard. At the same time, Shuge’s own will was directly exerted along with the magic connection, erasing Sni’s nose. While finding out some strange ideas, I also got more details about Snicki’s status.
The grooves in the metal disc began to change.
This time, the increase in the running rat’s power did not directly “open up” a new space on the metal disc. What changed was the groove where Snitch originally lived.
Xiuge saw that the space in this groove seemed to have been expanded to a considerable extent. If the previous groove was compared to a shallow “pit”, then the changed groove seemed to have real depth—— It becomes a cave that exists in the spiritual world.
It is conceivable that in such a space, the Running Rat will be able to have a wider and more comfortable space for activities, and the cave itself seems to be able to accommodate more things, but Xiuge is still unable to figure out the doorway. .
Not only that, Xiuge also noticed that a series of patterns gradually emerged on the edge of the groove. The patterns of these patterns were very simple, but the images they carved were extremely clear.
It was a long line of blind rats lined up, easily identifiable by their eyeless heads and mutated, whisker-like hind legs.
“It seems that the Earth Mother’s Mysterious Instrument has indeed brought huge benefits to it…”
Xiuge observed the changes in his spiritual world and began to think: “The Running Rat is originally a dependent of the Mother Goddess of the Earth. This has been confirmed in previous dreams, so its acceptance of this power is obviously higher. Far higher than ordinary creatures, and definitely more than all rats and magical creatures encountered today.”
Snitch was obviously not satisfied with Shuge holding him, so he carefully twisted it twice. Seeing this, Shuge let go of his hand and let it fall to the ground again.
As if to “make up” for his previous mistakes, the Running Rat had just landed back on the ground, and hugged Shuge’s legs very affectionately and flatteringly, and rubbed it twice, and then ran away under Wei Lin’s extremely disgusted eyes. He took two steps forward and began to actively show Xiuge the “new unique skills” he had acquired.
Following the command, the rats in the corridor that not only did not obey its command but even actively attacked it immediately mobilized. Under Snicki’s intentional manipulation, these dense rats immediately formed a formation. The neat queue stretched to the end of the corridor.
It seems that its ability to control and command the will of rat creatures has been greatly strengthened. Not only are the rats it can summon more exaggerated, but even these magical creatures that have been transformed by the power of the Mother Goddess of the Earth are also controlled by it. Included in the command list.
While demonstrating his abilities, Snitch was also very smart and clever in relaxing his influence on the “own rat pack”. However, Alexandra and other family members were still extremely afraid of Snitch’s existence. .
“It gives me the same feeling as that secret ritual. I believe your words…”
Alexandra walked slowly, she glanced at Shuge’s summons warily, and then said: “Not only are you related to the Black Sun Society, but you may also be related to the gods that the society worships and believes in. There is some kind of relationship.”
“It’s too early to tell.”
Shuge glanced at Alexandra. He quickly swept away his excitement caused by the changes in the running rat, and said instead: “We have only temporarily solved the current trouble. We can only be secretly…” Only when the instrument itself is completely destroyed or terminated can things here come to an end.”
He looked at the members of the Ernst family gathered around him. After this series of changes, the originally large group of family rats had now been reduced by nearly half. They were previously controlled by Alexandra to “take care of them.” The waiters and servants who “served” these rats were all seriously injured in the conflict just now.
With the current state of severe attrition and damage, these human wills that have persisted for countless years seem to have finally come to an end.
Xiuge even suspected that once he completely destroyed the secret ritual buried underground in this manor, these “ancestors” in front of him would immediately disappear completely because they lost the support of their power.
His thoughts were not hidden from these souls with rich life experience.
After a moment of silence, the damaged rats made a slight noise and told Alexandra, the speaker, the results of their “discussion”. Then the former legend faced the two people in front of him. The young man smiled gently.
“We have already been prepared.”
Alexandra said softly, and with the slight fluctuation of emotions, the black shadow existing in her eyes swayed slightly, like a candle that was about to be extinguished: “As the person in charge of the family, as the forerunner of the family, When we learned the truth about the secret ceremony and gathered on this floor, we were all prepared to face the bleak end… Children, don’t forget, we are the dead.”
“For us, a complete sleep is the best ending.”
Alexandra raised her arm and showed Shuge her arm, which was gradually collapsing into the rat swarm form due to the weakening of strength: “Furthermore, we don’t want the young people in the family to know that those of us who were drawn The elders who had beautiful portraits hanging everywhere eventually became like this.”
While he was speaking, the running rat, which had quietly returned to Shuge’s spiritual world, passed on a message. Shuge instinctively understood the content of the message, and his expression immediately changed subtly.
Via the change in Shuge’s demeanor, Wei Lin seemed to notice something, so she asked, “It seems that Mr. Shuge has some different views on this?”
“Opinions don’t count.”
Shuge looked at Alexandra and then at the group of rats aside. He sighed softly and said, “I have some other proposals on this matter, but I can’t ensure that they are really true.” It will work, but I’m not sure if it’s in line with your original ideas.”
General Bernhard was always impatient, and his group of rats immediately started making noises: “Come and listen, tell and listen!”
“If I do not choose to destroy the secret ritual of Mother Earth, but try to inherit and take over the power, then you will be able to continue to exist in your current form…but at that time, you will no longer be bound here, But to be able to leave with me and return to the outside world.”
Shuge slowly read out the message sent to him by Snicki, and he said seriously: “I cannot guarantee the stability and safety of this approach. After all, the act of accepting the power of the secret ritual itself has risks, so The choice is still left to you.”
