Chapter 624 Flower of Blood and Bone·Eyeballs and Statues

[Crown blessing·Mobius strip! 】

[Crown Blessing·Rolling Stone of Destiny! ! 】

[Crown Blessing-Wanwu·Vector Authority! ! ! 】

Three halos like mutton-fat white jade appeared behind Xia Xiu. The pure light of the halo made his figure look sacred and solemn.

These three halos are not only a symbol of strength, but also the manifestation of the magnificent [Crown Element] and [Myth Factor] in his body.

In the gray and white time-stop world, the light emitted by these haloes is particularly dazzling, in sharp contrast with the monotonous tones around them.

With the appearance of the halo, these powers began to cover [Sisyphus]'s body, making this incarnation even more terrifying and powerful.

[Sisyphus]'s body, illuminated by the halo, exuded a heart-stopping pressure.

His fists were clenched, and a symbol that was constantly distorting space suddenly appeared on the front of his fists - [∞], which is the [Mobius strip].

This [Mobius strip] is formed in the front part of the fist, emitting a force that distorts space.

The space inside the ring began to twist and deform, and the laws of the entire world were rewritten at this moment.

Ripples began to appear in the surrounding space as [Sisyphus] moved his fists, and the ripples spread, rippling in the gray world like water waves.

As [Sisyphus] moved his fists, the ripples gradually became stronger.

The air collapsed in front of his fist, forming a swirling column of air.

This air column is like a huge drill, formed in the front of [Sisyphus]'s hands with the power of distorting space.

The air drill rotates extremely fast, and the surrounding air is torn and twisted, making a low buzzing sound.

Buzz buzz——

The rotating air column was like an indestructible sharp blade, cutting a deep crack into the gray time-stop world.

The dust in the air flew around under the rotation of the drill bit, forming tiny vortices that continued to spread as the air column rotated.

[Crown Blessing: [Destiny]+[All Things]+[Space]——]

The purple-gold incarnation exuded a terrifying force of deterrence, while Xia Xiu, who had expanded the [Triple Crown], waved his hand to signal his avatar to launch a fierce attack towards the statue.

His hand fell quickly, and [Sisyphus] followed his movements and launched an attack.

[Elements unlocked: Tianyuan Breakthrough·Vector Impact Drill! ! ! 】

In the gray time-stop world, [Sisyphus] wielded the rotating air drill with both fists, approaching the green skeletal statue.

The statue floats quietly in the air, hugging its knees tightly, exuding an eerie and peaceful atmosphere.

Its silent posture contrasts sharply with the still world around it.

[Sisyphus]'s fists, one on the left and the other on the right, were closed and approaching the statue, with precise and powerful movements.

Buzz buzz buzz————

The air drill continued to rotate at the front of the fist, and the twisted space made a low hum around it.

As [Sisyphus]'s fist gradually approached the statue, the harsh friction sound in the air became increasingly clear.

呲呲呲呲岲——

The sound was as harsh as fingernails scraping against a blackboard, making people feel uncomfortable and disgusted involuntarily.

The irregular waveforms and sharp volume changes seem to hit the most sensitive nerves of human beings and are unbearable.

At this moment, air drills and statues collide in the gray time-stop world.

Poof!

Poof! !

Poof! ! !

The air drill rotates extremely fast, and the surrounding space is torn and twisted.

However, surprisingly, the statue is more indestructible than imagined.

The drill left only a thin, imperceptible white mark on one part of the statue, which was barely noticeable.

The statue still sat firmly in place, as if untouched by anything.

At the same time, fifteen seconds have passed in the time-stop world, and the ticking countdown that represents the end of time-stop quietly sounded.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock——

Every countdown sounded like a reminder to Xia Xiu that the flow of time was about to resume, and the tense atmosphere became increasingly intense.

Xia Xiu's current [Time Slot] can be fixed for about twenty seconds.

If high-level observations are encountered, this timeout time will be shortened.

After the time-stop for more than 20 seconds, he needed to let [Vashak] take a few breaths before he could activate the time-stop again.

This is also considered skill CD time.

Although the CD of these few breaths does not seem to be long, in high-intensity thaumaturgic confrontation and abnormal confrontation, the CD of several breaths is still too long.

The twenty-second pause was still too short.

呲呲呲呲岲——

The collision sound of the air drill and the statue was mixed with the harsh friction sound, which seemed particularly harsh and incongruous in this gray time-stop world.

The indestructibility of the statue made Xia Xiu frown slightly. At the same time, his body had already quickly distanced itself from the statue.

In the gray world, he looked calm, his blond hair fluttered slightly in the still air, and there was a trace of thinking in his eyes.

In the time-stopped world, Xia Xiu's mind was spinning rapidly, analyzing the situation in front of him.

"The statue of an unknown person is placed in a room with high-intensity lights, and the lights must be continuously shining on it. There is an independent backup power supply in the room to ensure that the lights will not go out at any time, so the abnormal ability is most likely related to the visual range.

However, counterintuitively, it is built into a special reflective coating glass, which means that only outsiders are allowed to observe it, and the coating inside the statue cannot be observed from the outside.

If the statue is alive or has special functions, one thing can be basically determined, that is, it can perceive the perspective, and the constant perspective exists."

"...Then what is the setting of the reflective coating glass for, blurring the containment workers like me?"

While thinking in his mind, his eyes quickly looked at everything in the compartment just now, and his mind quickly calculated the next action.

The death of Chimera No. 1 just now was because he grabbed the statue with his claws, and the eyes of various parts of his body did not look at the statue, that is, the constant perspective disappeared, triggering the statue mechanism.

"Mechanism speculation 1: If there is no intelligent creature staring at the statue, it will disappear within 15-20 seconds, and then appear next to the creature that has seen it before, and the creature will suddenly die."

He squatted again, and the five fingers of his right hand were placed on the cold floor. With this movement, the [Mark of Ion] on the back of his hand flashed like a bright red brand, emitting a faint red light.

『Chimera Structure——』

The bright red mark gradually became brighter, as if it was alive, and bright red flesh and blood slowly spread out from the palm.

There is a mechanism to quickly construct and proliferate, just like a living thing, wriggling and rapidly expanding on the ground.

The flesh and blood twisted and stretched, as if weaving a complex network.

As time went on, the flesh and blood began to quickly construct and take shape, forming the prototypes of miniature chimeras.

The bodies of these chimeras quickly took shape on the ground, and the outline of the bones appeared first. The bones were slender and tough, as if they were made up of countless tiny bone pieces.

Then, muscles and skin quickly covered the bones, the muscle lines were tight and powerful, and the surface of the skin was covered with fine blood vessels, revealing a faint red light.

The head of the chimera gradually became clear, and the three pairs of eyes flashed with strange light, full of ominous breath.

Their mouths opened, revealing sharp teeth, and they let out a low roar.

The process of the squirming flesh and blood spreading from the palm was full of visual impact, and the blood flowed on the ground, forming a blood-red ocean.

The body of the chimera gradually emerged in this sea of ​​blood, looking particularly terrifying and ominous.

"Roar-"

"Roar-"

"Roar-"

The three-headed miniature chimera came to the world again! ! !

The upper body is like a lion, the middle is like a goat, and the lower body is like a venomous snake.

One is better than three. After one is used up, three more can be used.

Three heads and nine perspectives, staring at the statue in time stop.

Xia Xiu stood up and looked at the slightly funny scene in front of him. He couldn't help but curl his lips.

The three chimeras looked like Shiba Inus. They were grinning and staring at the statue with three heads and nine eyes. The scene looked absurd.

The cub-like movements and the pretentious majestic posture formed a sharp contrast, making it difficult for people to associate this scene with the tense atmosphere.

Xia Xiu suppressed the slightly raised corners of his mouth, pressed the top hat on his head, and walked towards the compartment with his feet on the [Mobius Strip].

He always felt that this compartment hid something detailed.

『Buzz——』

The roar sounded again, and the gray world faded like a tide, and time resumed its flow.

Colors quickly filled every inch of space, and paint spread on the canvas.

The cold metal walls reflected the dazzling light, and the lights inside the compartment became dazzling again.

The light of each sodium iodide spotlight was like a sharp sword, piercing the air and illuminating the entire room.

When——

After the time stop ended, a "clang" sound was heard first, breaking the silence for a moment.

Xia Xiu's eyes moved away from Chimera and turned to the statue.

The statue that was just stopped in mid-air had fallen to the ground, and its base shook slightly on the ground, making a harsh friction sound.

Finally, it stood firmly on the ground and entered the "inert state".

The base of the statue stood firmly on the ground, as if it had never moved.

Chimera still stared at the statue with wide eyes, and a low roar echoed in the air.

Xia Xiu's body entered the compartment, while the statue was left outside the compartment.

He summoned [Vashak] again, waiting for the other party to prepare for the next round of time stop.

At the same time, he asked [Sisyphus] to lift the [Vector Impact Drill] that had not yet dissipated, change some of its internal parameters, and start to destroy the surrounding buildings.

[Gurren Lagann Toppa · ​​Vector Solid Impact Drill! 】

Boom——

Boom——

Boom——

The terrifying purple-gold incarnation wielded the air drill, silently destroying the surroundings.

Every time [Sisyphus] swung his fists, the objects he touched were quickly compressed and broken.

There was no sound of collision or friction, just a slight touch, and the object disappeared into the air as if the [Delete Key] was pressed.

The wall collapsed at the moment of contact, and the concrete and steel structures seemed to have never existed and quickly turned into nothingness.

The floor was lightly touched, and a large hole opened, revealing the internal structure.

The light went out the moment the fist came into contact, and the bulbs and wiring were torn apart by invisible forces.

The ceiling also had nowhere to hide, it collapsed and turned into dust at the first touch.

Xia Xiu was like a God-view game character controlling the mouse, calmly directing [Sisyphus] to carry out systematic elimination operations.

Every instruction allowed [Sisyphus] to accurately eliminate various parts of the building.

Walls, floors, lights, ceilings…

Everything quickly collapsed in the hands of this purple-gold incarnation, as if the entire room was being [delete with one click] in the modeling system.

Peng——

In this room that was destroyed as if it had just been modeled, Xia Xiu finally saw what he was looking for.

Something hidden inside the steel skeleton - a small square box of only fifteen cubic centimeters.

It was hidden deep within the walls, and would have been difficult to detect were it not for this systematic destruction.

A bright smile appeared on the blond young man's face.

"finally found you."

As he finished speaking, he saw the box begin to tremble.

The lid at the top of the box was pushed open by something inside, and an eyeball measuring only 7.24 cubic centimeters flew out.

The shape of this eyeball is very similar to a normal human eyeball. The iris shows a deep black color and the pupil shrinks slightly to observe everything around it.

The surface of the eyeball is as smooth as jade, reflecting faint light under strong light.

There is a pair of fleshy wings filled with white feathers on the back. These wings form a strong contrast with the eyeballs. The feathers are fine and white, with clear roots, shining softly in the light.

Buzz! !

Buzz! !

At this moment, the eyeball is flapping its wings, eager to escape from here like a bee.

Its wings vibrated rapidly, each flapping bringing up a slight gust of wind and a subtle rustling sound among its feathers.

At this moment, the trajectory of the eyeballs flying in the air seemed a bit chaotic, sometimes rising and sometimes turning sharply, as if they were looking for a way to escape.

Xia Xiu looked at the scene in front of him, and the smile on his lips did not diminish, but became brighter.

"Sure enough, there are other abnormal mechanisms cooperating."

People on this land always have more and more fun activities.

Xia Xiu looked at the eyeballs jumping around and slightly raised his right hand to make a take-down gesture.

[Sisyphus] Like a courtier under orders, he quickly put away the drill in his hand, stepped on the [Mobius strip], and appeared behind the eyeball in an instant.

call out--

The purple-gold incarnation stretched out its right palm, and a twisted space cage formed in the air, trapping the eyeballs.

The structure of the cage is constantly changing, like the superposition of multiple spaces, leaving the eye with nowhere to escape.

Eyeballs flapped wildly in the cage, trying to find any possibility of escape.

Its only eye was full of fear, looking around through the gap in the cage, as if looking for a chance to save its life.

puff--

Every flutter caused slight vibrations in the cage, but these vibrations were quickly subsided by the distortion of space.

The eyeball hit the cage and was directly rebounded.

Then it spun in place dizzily.

After catching the eyeball, [Sisyphus] stepped on the [Mobius Strip] and teleported to Xia Xiu's side.

[Sisyphus] came to Xia Xiu and raised his trapped eyeball.

Xia Xiu looked at this small strange creature curiously, his eyes waving the pair of white fleshy wings desperately, staring at Xia Xiu with fear.

The flapping of its wings made a subtle buzzing sound, and the pupils of its eyeballs contracted violently. Uneasiness and panic were clearly evident in its only organ.

Xia Xiu's eyes were calm and sharp, and he silently evaluated the characteristics of his eyeballs.

"There is no perceived wave curve,"

Xia Xiu thought to himself, the curiosity in his eyes gradually turned into cold analysis.

"The concealment effect is more powerful than the [presence weakening] I blessed. Even if I am looking at it now, within the range of spiritual and sensory awareness, there is still only a mass of air in front of it."

The eyeballs trembled more and more violently, and the wings beat faster and faster, but they could not break free from the shackles of [Sisyphus].

"What an interesting little thing. It seems that your existence is of great value."

[Sisyphus] brought his eyeball closer, Xia Xiu stretched out his finger and lightly touched the surface of the eyeball.

The cold and slippery touch is exactly the same as when it comes into contact with the eyeballs normally.

The eyeballs trembled slightly under his fingertips, and the wings drooped feebly, as if they had given up struggling.

Seeing this, Xia Xiu retracted his hand and at the same time stretched his hand into the nearby void.

The tiny feathers on the wings were shaking weakly, as if they were pleading silently.

Seeing this, Xia Xiu took back his hand calmly, with a trace of scrutiny and thinking in his eyes.

His hand immediately reached into the nearby void, and along with his movements, subtle ripples appeared in the surrounding air.

"Your Majesty——"

"Private customization·extraction of events!" 』

He used the [Private Customization] ability of the noble son with the second authority of [Vashak] to project a regular item from the past time tape.

The ripples spread out, rippling through the air like water waves.

Then, a polaroid camera appeared out of thin air in his hand.

He raised the Polaroid and pressed the shutter against the eyeball in front of him.

Click-

Accompanied by a slight sound, the light in the lens condensed in an instant, as if capturing the fear of the eyeball at that moment.

The pupil of the eyeball contracted violently, and the black pupil seemed to be frozen in fear.

In the Polaroid camera in Xia Xiu's hand, the film after shooting was slowly squeezed out from the slit on the top of the camera.

He carefully pulled out the film, gently shaking it, waiting for the image to appear.

The film swayed in the air, gradually revealing the shot.

The surrounding light focused on the photo, and in the gradually clear image, all the scenery appeared particularly vivid and vivid.

Xia Xiu's eyes were fixed on the film, waiting to capture the figure of the strange eyeball.

However, as the image was fully revealed, there was no trace of the eyeball in the scene in the photo.

In the photo, the background and surrounding environment of the shooting were shown one by one, and all the details were vivid: the cold and slippery floor, the heavy metal wall, and the dazzling high-intensity sodium iodide spotlight.

However, the strange eyeball that was supposed to be frozen in the picture did not appear in the photo at all.

It was as if the eyeball had never existed in this scene, and its figure disappeared without a trace in the photo.

Everything in the photo was clearly recorded, except for the existence of the eyeball.

It made people feel as if it lived in another dimension, or existed in a different coating, and could not be captured and recorded by ordinary means.

"Conventional means cannot capture its existence, even the spirituality and perception of the crowned cannot capture its existence, and it can only be anchored through the perspective of the naked eye."

Xia Xiu casually dispersed the Polaroid projection in his hand, and at the same time, he had a great understanding of the abnormal nature of the eyeball in front of him.

He asked [Sisyphus] to bring the eyeball to the statue.

Five minutes have passed now.

The killing mechanism of the statue has not been triggered.

In other words, Xia Xiu's guess was correct.

"So, the key point of the containment of the compartment just now was not the reflective coating, but this eyeball."

Xia Xiu also understood the insidiousness of the designer of the compartment at this moment.

If the person who came to steal the statue believed that the statue was a living thing, and assumed that the perspective mechanism was on the object, thinking that the statue could be contained by blocking the perspective of the living thing.

Then he would definitely be killed.

At this moment, Xia Xiu summarized the other related mechanisms of the statue in his heart.

"The killing mechanism of the statue is the principle of proximity, and there is no mandatory order. It has a special transmission mechanism, and it must be activated after contacting the victim after transmission. The current cause of death is internal organ rupture."

"When observing the statue, you must ensure that most of the other party's figure is fully observed. The strong light in the compartment is designed for this."

While thinking, he looked at the other three Chimeras blinking their eyes.

"This kind of observation is not absolutely mandatory. Actions such as blinking are allowed. In addition, there is a fifteen-second trigger pre-shake, so the room for manipulation is larger."

Xia Xiu has roughly understood the mechanism of the statue. He squatted down and picked up the statue.

The statue is about 30 cm tall, showing a skeleton figure, sitting and hugging his knees.

The surface of the statue is covered with delicate carving lines, as if every bone detail has been carefully carved.

The green material glowed faintly under the strong light, which looked particularly strange.

Xia Xiu's fingers gently touched the surface of the statue, and felt a cold and hard touch, as if touching a piece of cold ice.

The surface of the statue was smooth with a slight roughness, which made people wonder whether its material had some special components.

He held the statue in front of his eyes, carefully observed the fine carving lines, and felt a faint ancient power emanating from it.

Deep in the eye sockets of the statue, he seemed to feel an invisible gaze, as if some mysterious existence was peeping at him through the statue.

Although the statue itself was still, Xia Xiu felt a subtle pressure from it.

Xia Xiu's fingers slid along the edge of the statue, feeling the delicate carving lines passing through his fingertips, bringing a cold and strange touch.

He could feel that this statue was not just a simple object, but contained some powerful power and secrets.

Xia Xiu held the statue in his hand and slowly turned it over to the bottom.

His eyes were fixed on the base of the statue, and he noticed that there were several lines of ancient Terran characters carved there using microcarving techniques.

These characters were fine and dense, with smooth lines, as if they were carved one stroke at a time with the finest chisel.

The carving craftsmanship of the characters was extremely exquisite, and each letter was clearly legible, showing the sculptor's superb skills and patience.

The color of the characters was slightly different from the green of the statue itself, with a faint metallic luster, as if it was inlaid with some special alloy.

The following words were engraved inside the statue:

[In the beginning, the world was divided into three parts.

Before people knew Olympus, before the extinction of the giants, before the ocean completely faded, the world was divided into three parts.

Three great cities divided the world into three.

Mamjul and Korar, two dark fortresses stationed between the jungles of the subcontinent.

The magician and the sorcerer-nawab united to resist the horror in the forest, and made a contract with some ancient thing.

The Daevite Covenant was born, and those who enslaved humanity were gifted with the first kind of magic - the magic of life and death.

It was the largest empire, the most powerful, and in the years to come, all others came to eat its plates and flesh.

*****

In the inner sanctum, a charismatic slave rebelled, promising riches.

The mortal preachers of freedom and power turned against him.

Together they threw off their chains, slew their oppressors with new magics, and rebuilt their crumbling cities, all in the name of Grand Karcist Ion.

The Nlka (Sarkic) Empire unleashed the second kind of magic - carnosomancy, the magic of the flesh.

*****

█Mani-███, the first great ███ of the Mechanic Empire, spread like wildfire from the desert.

A great, shining city rose from the sand dunes - a center of knowledge, science, and reason the world had never seen before, the third kind of magic - the fire of reason.

The magic of the machines became famous, and they were devoted to a new god who would lift humanity up, not make it fear.

****

In the glorious era, people from three great nations started a war to destroy the world.

They created Terra's eternal prison. 】
