Under the terrifying oppression exerted by Shuge, these prisoners quickly told everything they knew.
And through the information given by these three-color brotherhood members, Shuge also captured a surprising fact.
General Boots, who controls Iris Street, is now trying to expand his sphere of influence - not just expanding his territory, he is also trying to recruit other survivors in the area.
"The past week, Iris Street accepted several mages who came out of the Legal Committee... Well, General Boots doesn't seem to intend to let them become members of his army, but wants them to do something else, but specifically We don’t know what it is like.”
"Why, don't you count as people from Iris Street?"
"Of course not."
The rather self-conscious member of the Three Color Brotherhood smiled bitterly: "At most we can only... conduct some transactions and cooperation with Iris Street. They don't like us, and even the weapons we exchanged with them are just a few Replacement of ordinary goods."
As he spoke, he looked at the various objects piled aside with his eyes: "You may not believe it, but three or four out of ten of the crystal muskets we exchanged will not fire at all."
Shuge still believed what this brotherhood member said. After all, the role played by the Three Color Brotherhood in Salem City has always been very embarrassing and subtle. For some people, they are a group of outright robbers, and for some For those in power, these guys are white gloves that can be called upon and given up at any time.
"You seem to be very skilled at attacking mages. How many times have you done this before?"
"Only... four or five times, right?"
One fraternity member timidly replied, "And it doesn't always work."
"In other words, you have succeeded?"
"Yes... yes, I have succeeded three times, but they were all raindrop-level mages or apprentices. They cannot use magic to resist bullets like you."
The member of the Tricolor Brotherhood lowered his voice as he spoke. It seemed that he was worried that the terrifying young mage in front of him would avenge his "colleagues".
However, Xiuge was extremely indifferent to this. He raised his metal cane and glanced at the blood on it. Then he raised his hand and summoned a ball of "water ball" to quickly wash away the dirt.
At the same time, he asked: "So these methods of hunting mages were discovered by you yourself?"
"No, this is the experience within the Brotherhood... The mages who joined us told us these methods."
Hearing these words, Shuge became interested: "A mage who joined the Brotherhood? Where did he come from? The Law Council or the Royal Family of Delan?"
"It's the Legal Committee, sir."
"Interesting, is he still with you now?"
The brotherhood member caught the subtle change in Shuge's tone, but he did not dare to avoid Shuge's question. Instead, he nodded timidly: "Yes, he has become an important member of ours and a mage advisor."
"When did he join?"
"Shortly after the disaster."
So Xiuge narrowed his eyes and nodded gently twice: "Okay, I understand."
As if he recognized the attitude and answers of these "captives", Xiuge shook his cane. In an instant, two more "limb recovery techniques" were cast, and he began to continuously attack the other two fallen prisoners. The wounded who were lying on the ground were subjected to extremely rough treatment.
Afterwards, Xiuge went directly to the piled weapons and started picking them among them as if no one else was watching. Z.br>
After staying in the Fifth Chasseur Regiment for a long time, even a mage will get used to carrying firearms with him.
As these brotherhood members said, the crystallized guns in their hands are of mixed quality, and Xiuge could not help but frown after just taking a look at them.
These crystal muskets are not from the same era at all. Some of them are rough in style, and after shooting, the inside of the barrel must be inspected.
The "age difference" between the old antiques that are cleaned with crystal powder and the new wheel crystal gun made by Delan craftsmen is probably more than a hundred years!
Xiuge was naturally not interested in those antique weapons that took several minutes just to load bullets. He directly selected three of the latest models that used runner, and looted all the bullets that matched them. As for melee combat As self-defense weapons, he chose a demon-stifling silver sword and two daggers.
As for the alchemy bomb, a good thing that is "suitable for all ages", Xiuge did not intend to keep it. He vacated a brotherhood member's package and put all the alchemy bombs in it. Then he put this The heavy package "hangs" on the hand of the mage floating aside.
"Okay, you can go...but I need you to bring me a message."
Amidst the disbelieving looks of all the brotherhood members, Shuge showed a meaningful smile: "Say hello to your mage advisor for me, and say hello to him from the members of the Dark Abyss History Society." ...If he has time and is interested, he can come to this place at noon two days later. I have something to talk to him about. "
In fact, after Xiuge heard the description of the mage, he had basically determined that this spellcaster who provided guidance to the Brotherhood was most likely a member of the Black Sun Society left in the city of Salem.
Although Xiuge didn't expect the Three-Color Brotherhood to be of any help in solving the hidden dangers in Salem City, he knew that once he launched a comprehensive operation against the descendants of An Yuan, he would definitely attract The attention of these Black Sun Society members.
With the nature of these lunatics, they might cause some trouble at that time.
Therefore, before everything is ready, Xiuge must conduct a thorough cleansing of the remaining forces of the Black Sun Society in Salem City. Only by eliminating these fragmentary external forces and hidden dangers can he do his own thing in a drastic manner.
After letting go of the members of the Three Color Brotherhood who were responsible for bringing him messages, Shuge officially started his hunting plan in this neighborhood.
Relying on their own magic perception and the inexplicable weak connection with the descendants of An Yuan, those "mud" that hide in the nooks and crannies after the sun rises have no way to escape Shuge's pursuit.
These descendants of the Dark Abyss who have not returned to the underground world during the day are basically independent individuals separated from the huge main body. Although they are connected to their own bodies at the spiritual and magical levels, the descendants of the Dark Abyss Although they have incomplete characteristics, there is no way to support them from sharing each other's senses and information at all times like human mages and summons.
And this made it easier for Xiuge to hunt them.
The messenger in the mirror has gone "eating crazy".
After getting Shuge's tacit approval, it even skipped the step of storing the power of Anbyan in the metal discs waiting for distribution. Once it cooperates with Shuge to complete the hunt, it will immediately seize those from the descendants of Anbyan. The force that came out was thrown into the room that was still sealed.
After receiving the warning from Theseus, Xiuge no longer dared to continue to use "sacrifice" to redeem it in the Dream Sanctuary at will, and this hunt for the descendants of An Abyss became his rapid improvement in a short period of time. The most effective way to strengthen your own strength!
After entering this almost workaholic state, Xiuge almost forgot about the passage of time.
The magic rats have weaved a huge magic network around him, and once these rats find any movement or trace, Shuge will immediately call out Snitch and let him take him to the target location. , basically, the discovered descendants of the Dark Abyss did not even have time to counterattack or escape before they were cut into pieces by the Touch of Charron and swallowed up by the Messenger of the Mirror using the mist.
During the hunting that lasted for most of the day, Xiuge also tested the effectiveness of other magic on these descendants of An Yuan.
"In addition to high temperatures and flames, extreme cold and death magic that can directly deprive them of vitality can cause damage to them. In contrast, physical slashing, puncture and corrosive poisons can cause damage to them.
Acid and liquid are less effective. These methods cannot truly kill the descendants of the Dark Abyss, but they can cause trauma to them and split their bodies. "
Xiuge raised his foot and gently kicked away a ball of black mud that was trying to crawl towards him. Then this weak piece of dark abyss descendant was immediately wrapped in the mist of the busy messenger in the mirror. Within two seconds The clock turned into a ball of black sewage without any magic power or vitality.
"Crystal bullets are also effective against them, but what really causes damage is not the shrapnel when the bullet explodes, but the impact of the magic explosion... The damage caused by the magic explosion to the descendants of An Abyss is actually very similar to those of fire magic, and it is more difficult. Directly, but the magic explosion itself cannot sustainably damage and contain this monster like flames."
He looked up to the sky.
The distant shelling finally stopped more than half an hour ago - it continued for a whole day. The artillery on both sides was frantically pouring their artillery fire towards the other side's position and attack route, and the number of shells consumed was natural. There is no way to count, but when the long bombardment stopped, Xiuge suddenly felt that the world could be so quiet.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and almost all the survivors who were out for action would be on their way home at this time.
Later, the sunlight will begin to dim, and at that time, all roads that can be walked during the day will become hunting grounds for the descendants of the Dark Abyss.
The neighborhood where Shuge is located has become extremely quiet, probably because there are constant magical explosions in this area. There are still few survivors who dare to come here. At most, they can only take a sneak peek. Then he would leave, and those descendants of An Yuan lurking in this area had also been killed by Xiuge.
But Xiuge was not satisfied with this result. On the contrary, he noticed something abnormal.
Starting an hour ago, he discovered that the descendants of An Yuan near him were already trying to escape.
As if they had received some kind of signal, they left the corners where they were originally hiding and looked for cracks and passages that could lead to the underground. Once these descendants of the dark abyss got into those cracks, they would immediately disappear in Shuge's world. In the perception of magic.
Due to the activities of a large number of dark abyss forces, the underground waterways of Salem City are now simply a restricted area for magic perception. There are traces of magic left by the descendants of the dark abyss everywhere. In this environment, even Xiuge cannot distinguish them in detail. Which are truly "meaningful" fluctuations and which are false "distractions".
"It seems that their subjects have sensed my presence? Or are they aware that someone is deliberately hunting them?"
The messenger in the mirror on the side had finished his eating process, so Xiuge looked at the slightly slanting sunlight, then turned over and mounted the running rat.
In this city of Salem, although Xiuge belongs to the category of "artists are bold", he does not want to attract the attention of the descendants of An Yuan prematurely, in case they go crazy and organize that kind of momentum It wouldn't be good if a huge "death wave" surrounded and suppressed him.
Snitch yawned in the warm sunshine. Its body was already covered with various trophies that Shuge had taken along the way. From weapons to food and supplies, there was even a small bag of magic crystals. When hunting a descendant of the Dark Abyss, the things found from the collapsed building were of limited quality, but for a mage, the more magic crystals the better.
"Come on, let's go back."
Shuge gently patted Snicki on the head, and the big mouse immediately became energetic. It recognized the direction, and then led Shuge and ran towards the hiding place of Felix and others.
However, after walking forward for a few minutes, the running rat suddenly stopped. Its hair stood up slightly, and its throat emitted a slight hiss that symbolized threat and warning.
Seeing this, Xiuge frowned slightly. Although there was no warning sign in the spiritual world, he immediately became alert. The fog of the dark abyss immediately filled his eyes, which allowed Xiuge to capture everything in front of him. The tiniest fluctuation of magic power.
So he looked
I saw that in the shadows of the street ahead, a lot of thick black pus was slowly pouring out from different directions. They gathered in the middle of the street and slowly formed a somewhat blurry black shape.
Immediately afterwards, this human form, which was obviously transformed from the descendant of An Yuan, made a move that surprised Xiuge.
It took a step forward, and then slowly bent down in the direction of Xiuge.
It's saluting.
