Male Succubus Apocalypse

Chapter 28 "Genius" Comedian

"Just take these. How much do you want to pay?" Xu Heng pointed at a few corpses and said to Quessus.

"No charge, it's my privilege," Quessus responded.

"Okay, then let's go back to the tavern. I'll treat you to something to eat." Xu Heng was surprised and said with a smile.

He simply packed it up and took it away using his space ring.

"Hmm..." Quessus seemed to have something to say but couldn't quite put it into words.

"Don't worry, I won't trick you this time, and I won't ask you to report it. So, are you guys going to follow me here from now on?"

It was the familiar silence again.

"Okay, it's better to keep him. Old man Aaron is really a good brother." Xu Heng didn't care.

Now the little brats are getting a little involved in affairs of love outside, and he doesn't want to solve a lot of troubles by himself. He can feel more at ease with the protection of the people from the Yanyun Chamber of Commerce.

From now on, I have to focus on cultivation and can’t stay in the kitchen all the time.

……

After treating Quessus to a good meal, Xu Heng retreated to the basement - Quessus himself had said before that he would not continue to lurk in the tavern, and of course, he could not hide there.

Inside the tavern, there are a large number of detection and counterattack magic arrays set up with the help of Vivian. They are space-based. No matter how high Quessus's hiding ability is, Xu Heng can find it.

It’s just a pity that the beggar didn’t come today.

We went to the second underground floor, moved the body out, and started today's schedule.

"I won't teach you the techniques of controlling corpses in the Undead System. The most important thing is the Soul System." Julie continued to be the lecturer. "Previously, I strengthened your control over the soul. Next, I will teach you real soul-related spells. Once you learn them, you will officially enter the first stage of the Undead Mage."

"First level? Then I want to know, what level of necromancer is my soul equivalent to?"

"You asked a good question. It's a little hard to judge. If we only talk about your own strength, you are at least as strong as a fourth-level necromancer, which is not low. Generally, sixth- and seventh-level magicians are no more than this. With my blessing, you should be about the fifth level."

"Then why did you say before that you wouldn't let me fight against a sixth or seventh level warrior?"

"Nonsense, you have the quality, but you can't use it! And this is your limit, you will just crash yourself to death! My rule is to use the big to bully the small, not a real head-on collision!"

If Julie had a physical body now, she would really roll her eyes and kill Xu Heng.

"Then your rules are too watery, aren't they?"

"My rules are the simplest, but most practical. They are not like those fancy rules that have restrictions. Just follow my example and enjoy yourself!"

Without further ado, Julie continued to impart basic knowledge to Xu Heng.

Soul-based spells use various techniques and indirect rituals to inflict damage on the person being cast.

Take the first-level soul spell "Soul Arrow" as an example. The principle is to use death energy as ammunition and part of the caster's soul as the bullet shell, and then use it as a firearm through a ritual and fire it out.

Low-level soul spells use the mental interference and pollution effects of death energy as their main means of killing. They are relatively primitive and also very risky because the caster's soul will leave the body during the attack.

If the spell is used against and exploited by someone with ulterior motives, it will backfire on the owner and affect the soul, causing extreme pain and irreparable damage.

Naturally, the power is also greater.

Then someone asked, necromancers can also use death energy, but the reason why the soul is a shell is to serve as a goal-oriented function.

The soul is attached to the will of the caster, and the soul of the person being cast is accurately connected. Halfway through, the death energy breaks away from the soul shell, enters the body of another person, and absorbs the new soul part.

A process of reorganization, once done, is like cutting off a part of another person's soul.

Although it sounds primitive and full of risks, in actual combat, once you master it, it can not only ambush people, but also cause huge damage, which is almost impossible to defend against, unless the opponent is also a soul mage.

The spells of each faction, no matter how simple they are to operate now, have been studied and explored by mages for generations and should not be underestimated.

Necromancers are extremely rare in the entire continent, and soul mages are one in a hundred among the necromancers. Every Undead Lord has several soul mages under his command.

That’s right, there are several of them, but we can’t find enough people to form a mage team.

Soul mages are also the nemesis of undead mages and their creations that are difficult to destroy. No matter how undefeated you are and how good your body is that can be reborn over and over again, once your soul is gone, it's gone forever.

At this point, Xu Heng couldn't help but ask a question that had been bothering him recently: "Does the soul disappear after a person dies?"

In response to this, Julie gave an affirmative answer: "Yes, but to be precise, it is not disappearing, but decomposing. The human soul is like a magic spell, with its own rules, which is wrapped in the magic of the soul. Once the spell is broken, the magic will return to its original state."

But this is normal. If it is preserved by the necromancer through magic - usually using an adapted body, as it is difficult to preserve the soul completely on its own - then there is nothing that can be done.

"Then is it possible that after death, the soul is reincarnated and retains its memories?"

"Impossible, except for possession of another body, but possession of another body is not reincarnation. Take me for example, the reason why my soul has not dissipated is because my original body is a lich, and I have a phylactery. I changed the container into something else. Although the strength of my soul in its heyday can be retained even if it is separated from the body, just like elemental creatures will be born in places with strong magic power."

"So your phylactery is still intact? Oh! Your phylactery is your staff!"

"Ahem, you know that. The staff will automatically store power for me, and I have to destroy it unless the gods come out. It would have escaped on its own, but was imprisoned by Vivian, the freak of time and space..."

"Tsk tsk, how miserable! Now you are connected to my soul. If your life box is broken, will you still die?"

"Oh, you are so smart? You can think of this? It seems that you have a high level of understanding. I can't lie to you. Let me tell you this. Maybe ordinary souls can't do this, but I can indeed coexist with you through binding, and the ability to communicate so smoothly is also my ability!"

"Symbiosis! I think it's parasitism! It's just like possessing another's body, right? But now you've been branded by me."

"..."

"You're right, oh, you little bastard!"

Okay, let’s stop joking. Julie discovered that although Xu Heng’s brain was not very smart when it came to magic, once he was calculating, he worked very quickly.

If you tell him how the soul works, he won't understand. But once you tell him about himself, he will be able to draw inferences immediately.

It's simply too much. He likes to sacrifice himself. I don't know whether he is selfless or selfish, thinking about others or being self-centered.

Xu Heng also had his own thoughts in mind. The reason why he asked about "reincarnation" was because he himself was one. He also deliberately asked other questions so that Julie could not grasp the main point of Xu Heng's question.

Let her think that Xu Heng was suspicious of her current situation and was weighing the pros and cons of enslaving her.

Even if he was an object of enslavement, Xu Heng would not reveal everything. It is estimated that even Julie did not completely reveal how many layers of masks he wore.

After Xu Heng knew that the soul would disappear once the body was destroyed, he couldn't help wondering in his heart - why is my memory still there? Why can I be reincarnated? Am I taking over someone else's body? It's impossible, the Earth is a scientific civilization!

Is it possible that... my body is still in the original world, but my soul has traveled through time for unknown reasons?

Although Xu Heng couldn't figure it out in the end, at least he had hope, the hope of going back. Every clue and every sign made Xu Heng happy.

The practice was carried out step by step. First, the dead air was absorbed. The fresher the corpse, the easier it was to extract. There might even be residual souls, but they were ownerless, just like a magician who would have some magic power left in his body after death.

No matter how fresh these corpses bought from the Deathmatch Arena were, their quality was far inferior to the batch that Vivian gave to Xu Heng due to their rank - Xu Heng hasn't finished absorbing all of them yet - Julie only let Xu Heng learn a process that every necromancer must be familiar with.

"Come on, try to see if you can cum."

"Ah? Really? Are you really going to cum?"

"Come on, come on! Cum!"

"Here I come! Here I come!"

"call out"

Xu Heng raised his hand to concentrate his will, muttering: "The spirit gives the soul, and the soul gathers in the mind..."

A small black arrow slowly condensed in front of his hand, and with a thought, it shot out.

The moment the soul arrow was shot out, Xu Heng felt that something was missing from his body. After a while, that part returned.

This should be what Julie said, the "soul circuit" unique to the soul mage, which is the process in which part of the soul goes out and comes back, but it is not completely emitted, and it just moves in the air for a while with the death energy.

"By the way, why do you have to chant the spell?"

"Although your soul control is slightly higher, you still need to use it to concentrate your will when you perform it for the first time."

The incantations of soul magic are different from those of other spells. Other mages need to recite them because they need communication elements so that the free magic can communicate with their own magic circuits.

As for the soul spells, the main purpose is to concentrate the will and communicate with the part of one's potential soul that cannot be fully mobilized. Only when it reaches a high level, it is necessary to quote free soul matter to launch powerful soul spells. That is not something Xu Heng should consider.

When fighting with Vivian, Julie's attack was not just on her own soul, but on the entire plane, which is why it had such a terrifying effect.

"But I think this will work..." Xu Heng thought about it, raised his hand to make a "pistol" shape, then concentrated his mind, imagining that he was holding a pistol, and then quickly loaded it - simulating the process of assembling the Soul Arrow.

Then he simulated a few "bang bang" sounds in the air. Unexpectedly, a small purple-black bullet really flew out from the void.

"Huh?" Julie was shocked.

"Fuck!" Xu Heng was also shocked, because he just wanted to have fun.

Because the process of assembling the Soul Arrow seemed ridiculous to him. It was just imagining the model of the arrow, using the soul as the mold, and the dead air as the material.

When asked why it was in the shape of an arrow, Julie said that it was because the shape of an arrow has less resistance and is more realistic, so the soul is easier to simulate.

Then he thought, wouldn't bullets be faster? And in fact, after watching so many gun battle movies, bullets might be closer to you than arrows, so this happened.

And since he was concentrating, maybe this method of imagining aiming could work. He didn't even know how to shoot an arrow - drawing the bow and shooting an arrow was actually replaced by chanting a spell.

"Are you a genius? Can you change it like this? And so quickly and quickly?" Julie's tone could not remain calm.

The so-called variation, in magical terms, means that after apprentices learn the most classic magic formulas, they understand the principles and create other forms of magic on their own.

For example, a crude variation of the Soul Arrow is the fourth-order Soul Arrow Rain, which is to store the arrows in advance, and then shoot them all out through powerful soul control.

The mage who can't imagine drawing the bow can only chant for a long time.

It is not difficult for Xu Heng to understand. Just replace it with a machine gun.

"Come on, this one is easy. I'll teach you another one." Xu Heng was full of confidence.

Julie originally thought that it would be enough for him to ejaculate well, but she didn't expect there would be an extra surprise.

"Then let's teach you a defensive skill, Soul Shield!" Julie picked a basic one.

It is called a soul shield, but in fact it is a "death shield" that is designed to counter ammunition that is death energy. It is a way of canceling each other out, and it also requires control over the soul.

"Wait, let me see~" Xu Heng did not cast the Shield of Death immediately - this spell was rather abstract. It was to spray out a ball of death energy with your hands, and then try to guess where the opponent's spells would hit. The defensiveness depended entirely on luck.

"Ugh—" Xu Heng suddenly covered his throat with his hand, and the next second, a cloud of black and purple mist spurted out of his mouth, and it was a very large mass.

Magic circuits are not everywhere, but death energy can be found everywhere... Xu Heng used this slightly "self-mutilation" method to concentrate his attention and performed the "Soul Vomiting" in a very stupid way.

This cloud of mist covered Xu Heng's entire body. Doesn't this make his defense stronger?

"You...you actually used this method to increase the power of the mist output...I...you...tsk!" Julie was confused. It was the first time she met such a genius (idiot) person.

I dare not even imagine how Xu Heng would fight, vomiting to defend himself, and then banging from his mouth and shooting missiles from his hands. Oh my god, what a "beautiful" picture.

It is said that the battle between magicians is an elegant dance, but Xu Heng is purely different.

"Well, don't say I'm your master anymore..."

"Master? Aren't you my slave?"

But no matter what people say or say, from Julie's professional perspective, Xu Heng's behavior is actually very worth studying.

After all, the Soul Department is different from other factions, and the mysterious soul plays a leading role.

The magic spells released by Xu Heng, which combine imagination and sensory stimulation, are very valuable for reference.

If they were not living under someone else's roof, Julie would really like to bring Xu Heng back to do research, write a paper, and by the way, defraud funds for "Rainbow Island".

"Xu Heng, Xu Heng, you must visit Hongdao when you have the chance."

"Why? Because I'm a super genius?"

"No, I really want to see how you can use your spellcasting to scare those rigid old guys to death. I believe you will become a shining comedian in our wizard world..."

After Xu Heng and Julie had a heated argument, Julie still gave an experienced consideration: "Don't you have the strength of a fourth-level warrior? You can consider practicing both magic and fighting skills."

"Um... I don't think it's possible. Well, I'm not very good at fighting... I may not even be able to beat Nolan..." Xu Heng spoke like a wilted flower.

"Ah?" Julie was shocked again, "You are at the fourth level. The difference between the silver level and the bronze level is huge. You can't beat Nolan? You are a devil! How come you can't fight?" It was not sarcasm, but complete incomprehension.

"What's wrong with being a demon? I can't do that! Why should I use physical combat when I can solve the problem with my brain? I'm a mage! Fighting should be easy and carefree!"

But what Julie really wants to complain about is that your way of casting spells is not very elegant... Looking left and right, it's just a lump... It's better to fight with your hands...
