When Hero opened his eyes again, a bright white light flashed in the distance, filling the gap between heaven and earth.
It's still dark night, but the end of the horizon is illuminated like daylight!
Like a handful of combed silver hair, the pure white hair sticks to the black sky one by one.
The moon shines down from the gaps in the lush tree canopy, forming spots of light that swim under the black forest.
The wind carries the fragrance of early autumn leaves and blows slowly through the forest.
Everything was wonderful, and that nightmare-like experience was as if it had never happened.
"Is that... the power of rituals left over from the Great Crusade?"
How much energy does this need to fill...
Hero guessed that the blazing whiteness that was close to deathly silence extended to such a large area, and its power to annihilate the [Deep Sea Ritual] Undead Mist would probably mean that the entire port would no longer exist.
As if he misunderstood Hero's worries, Mena, who was teleported next to him, comforted:
"The rituals inherited from the miracle will not be destroyed along with the port, it will last forever.
Your hometown... Actually, don’t worry, the empire will send people to rebuild and manage the port. Although the upper levels of the tower have given up hope for the Great Expedition, and the outpost is of no practical use to the magicians, they still Can be used for shipping transit and...yes! Historical commemoration! "
Holo rolled his eyes secretly.
This guy must have misunderstood his mood. He didn't even know where he came from. He just sighed at the power of the ritual.
This strategic weapon can cure his innate phobia of insufficient firepower!
Huh!
When Hero came back to his senses, he realized that there was something extra in his hand.
In the impression... it seemed that it appeared at the last moment of the [Gate] transmission, when he was excitedly counting the soaring [Soul Shards].
I happily clicked on the system panel.
[Soul fragments, 5624]
The deep sea soul beast's final explosive seed, during that incident, Helo had absorbed more than 5,000 piecemeal [soul fragments].
If the anchor point hadn't teleported too fast, he probably could have collected a few more.
After all, such a huge soul energy output should not be encountered in a short time.
'But what's going on with this slimy ball? '
"Hey! Is this the soul beast egg that the deep sea soul beast left for you?"
The reason for the misalignment was that Mena did not see the ball in Hero's arms for the first time. When Hero turned around, Mena exclaimed.
Holo fell into memories...
Soul beasts are generally described in the expansion pack. Such creatures whose souls have the same nature as the magician often coexist with the magician in soul.
After each magician's soul strength reaches a certain level, he will look for a soul beast that suits him to fill the shortcomings of his own abilities or enhance his abilities.
For example, soul magicians who are not good at controlling soul energy often like to match plant-based soul beasts found in the high mountains of the grasslands in the western part of the empire.
Plant-type soul beasts that grow in harsh environments must use their soul energy rationally in order to survive in harsh environments. Their ability to control and purify soul energy is extremely powerful.
"Egg? I'm going to be a daddy before I become a soul magician?"
Holo felt a little uncomfortable. He hadn't even become a soul magician yet, but he had to take on the responsibility of raising soul beasts!
Not to mention raising eggs, he doesn't even know how to hatch eggs!
Although Danta Niang looks awesome, she still doesn't know whether the ability of this soul beast can complement or enhance the soul circuit of her future awakening.
Hero squatted on the ground quite decadently and asked Mena about his worries:
"Can soul beasts be traded? I'm afraid that this soul beast won't match my awakened soul circuit..."
Mena touched the stubble on his chin, thought for a while and said:
"You haven't awakened your soul circuit yet. It's too late to think about it after you go to the Imperial Capital and enter the Holy Land Tower.
In fact, as long as the soul is not released and the soul beast is swallowed and contained, the soul beast is ownerless and can be traded.
But you have to think about it, young soul beasts are difficult to encounter in the magician world, and there are often adult soul beasts to protect them. Even if the tower wants to capture the offspring of powerful soul beasts, it will have to pay a considerable price.
In fact, this is a common problem in the magician world. When magicians are of low strength, they cannot make a good decision about which soul beast is more suitable for their future.
After all, every magician's soul circuit is different, and there will be some differences between direct blood lines, which can easily lead to the experience of previous generations being useless to future generations.
And when the magician's strength reaches a certain level, he doesn't want to capture the juvenile body, because cultivating soul beasts from an early age is too time-consuming and resource-intensive, and the growth period of some powerful soul beasts may last for decades.
After accommodating the juvenile body, it means that for a long period of time, it will not be of much help to you, and it will even be a bottomless pit of resources, dragging down your progress in becoming stronger.
It's important to say it's appropriate, but for various reasons, magicians will still pursue powerful soul beasts, and in the process of pursuing them, they often overlook one thing, the step of soul devouring soul beasts.
The stronger the spirit beast's soul is and the tougher its soul is, the more difficult it will be for a magician to contain them.
Therefore, when choosing a soul beast, other people's opinions can only be used as a reference. In the end, you still have to make the decision yourself.
Only the magician himself knows his own soul best.
Oh~ I forgot to tell you, there are not a few magicians of this level who have their souls destroyed every year because of the tower’s accommodation of soul beasts~”
"Level magician? I thought only magician apprentices would be so dangerous..."
However, after listening to Mena's explanation about the soul beast, Hero felt much more at ease.
That deep-sea soul beast is physically so powerful that it must have a long growth period. He is not in a hurry to make a decision in a short time.
It would be too late to think about it until after the imperial capital.
What's more, that soul beast still has the authority over the forbidden area, so its children shouldn't be too bad.
Hero looked at Mena imperceptibly.
"Then what if the soul accommodates the soul beast...can it be replaced with another soul beast?"
"You can, but you have to pay a huge price. After accommodating the soul beast, the souls of the magician and the soul beast will be merged into one. If you want to replace the soul beast, you have to cut out part of your own soul.
Unless absolutely necessary, basically all magicians will not do this. The lack of soul will greatly increase the difficulty of promotion in the future. "
Looking at Hero holding the egg, he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Mena took out a cloth bag and taught:
"Put it down and wash your hands. Soul beast eggs are not as fragile as you think. After the soul beasts in the wild lay eggs, just throw them aside and wait for the shells to break naturally."
After hearing what the professionals said, Hero bent down and placed the soul beast egg on the ground, turned around and started looking for water.
Fortunately, the black forest next to the port often has sufficient water sources.
The previous heavy rain also caused some small pools of water to accumulate under the tree pits.
Hiss~
The wriggling strands of flesh in the flesh have repaired the tendons and bones deep in the flesh, but the superficial wounds are still very painful.
Walking, bending and other movements were too much for him. When faced with a crisis, Hero had the courage to lift the table, regardless of his own injuries.
But now that he was safe, he still overestimated his own will.
The main reason is that I can't stand the inconvenience caused by the injury.
Holo clicked on the module system. More than five thousand points of [Soul Shards] looked like a lot, but they wouldn't last long.
With a click of consciousness, two thousand points of [soul fragments] dissipated like running water.
Helo clicked both [Physique] and [Rebirth] modules that can enhance each other to +2.
In this crisis-ridden world, life-saving is the first priority.
The flesh shreds in the wound seemed to have been medicated, and the repair efficiency went up a notch.
The pain of pulling on the wound while mending it was actually a bit addictive for Hero.
