Male Succubus Apocalypse

I stayed in the library until the evening. Fortunately, there were not only so-called experience books, but also various celebrity anecdotes of soldiers. I almost forgot the time while reading. Then I wandered around randomly and returned to Jeramet's house, waiting for Hermes to pick me up.

Xu Heng really enjoys a life where he doesn't have to worry about anything.

Jeramet seemed to have stayed at home all day, forcing Xu Heng to admire his diligence.

I just waited for Hermes to come, but he was a mummy version.

When a staggering man covered in red bandages appeared outside the door, Xu Heng was so scared that he kicked him to the ground.

"Oh my god! Ghost!"

"Brother Heng! It's me!"

"I know!"

"Ah? Stop kicking, stop kicking!"

After Xu Heng kicked Hermes down, he continued to beat him, kicking him several more times before he stopped.

When Hermes got up and went into the house, he met Jeramette, who had drawn his two swords to see what was going on. Only then did he tell him the whole story.

It was very simple. He just went to practice magic with Soma, found a remote place, and madly used his fighting spirit to compress the magic. With Soma's assistance, he surpassed Hermes' limit again and again - blood spurted continuously.

Forget about the spray, Soma gave Hermes some nourishment, used red medicine and blood clan recovery magic on Hermes, and asked him to continue to get up and practice, making his life worse than death.

Soma can ensure that his foundation is not damaged, allowing him to practice without restraint. The only thing he wants to do after practicing is to die.

"Hey, do you feel the pain now?" After hearing this, Xu Heng grinned wickedly and punched Hermes wildly, making him scream. It turned out that he couldn't hit him and it didn't hurt, and he couldn't do anything about it. Now that the turtle shell is broken, he will beat you, you bastard!

"You are wrong, you are wrong! Brother Heng, I came here this time to tell you that I have prepared a house for you. It is very troublesome to go back and forth, and it is almost the same for you to stay here as it is to go back. When I went to practice, I asked Lady Qing about it, and she said that it is okay as long as you are willing." Hermes said while dodging and parrying Xu Heng's punch.

"Oh? You're smart enough to give me a suite." Xu Heng stopped and said.

In fact, it was Julian who wanted this house, because he didn't want Xu Heng to stay in his beloved disciple's house all the time.

After Xu Heng said hello to Jeramette and left, the lively house fell silent again.

Jeramet watched the two men leave through the window. He didn't seem to be suspected by Xu Heng, but he also didn't know the outcome of the plan.

But Xu Heng looks very relaxed now, and that is enough. His past was just as miserable, but Xu Heng was definitely not worried.

He is the least visible person in the game, but he knows best the result of the game. That dream of destruction and rebirth is so fantastic and shocking that he still remembers it today and in the future.

And all this was brought about by that seemingly unruly man. Even though revenge is still an important part of his life, it is by no means the only one. What is important is the pursuit of the world after revenge, the new world that Xu Heng brings him.

……

"Come! Eat!" The room was full of white fog. Xu Heng held a pot of noodles and started eating with Hermes.

I went to a food stall outside to borrow kitchen utensils and cooking space, and made a pot of post-training meal for Hermes.

This kid has been craving for it ever since he ate Xu Heng's fried chicken steak.

"By the way, aren't you going to coach Linkevich?" Xu Heng said to Hermes, who was about to bury his head in the bowl.

"No, she is working hard now and doesn't need my intervention. She will ask me if she has any questions. She is quite independent-minded, which is a good quality." Hermes swallowed the noodles and replied. "By the way, Brother Heng, um, don't buy masks these days."

"Huh? Why? Wait, how did you know I was wearing a mask? Were you and the others spying on me today? No way! That sudden snow and fog looked so much like when you landed!"

"Uh, did you just realize it? It's in the past, right? Anyway, don't buy the mask."

"Why are you talking so vaguely? Isn't it because of the drama between Linkovich and Clara that made it seem like a love affair? I'm sure many people are targeting me, but they just don't know my true face."

"..."Hermes looked at Xu Heng who looked like he knew everything, and didn't know what to say.

You know it, but you don’t know it.

That's not acting! No, you know it's a relationship dispute, so why can't it be like that? Don't you know it well? You're so confused!

Okay, I can't stand it anymore, enlighten him!

"Xu Heng, don't you think you are a charming person? What if this is real?" Hermes put down his chopsticks, crossed his arms, looked at Xu Heng seriously and said.

"I'm charming? Where's my charm? You're pretending to be serious. You're my brother, so I tell you this, your apprentice has an inner illness, and you should take more care of her and pay more attention to her. The reason why she acts like she has a good relationship with me is because I'm the first person to do so. And Clara, she is not the kind of little girl who likes love as you think. She has great ambitions! Let's not talk about my charm first. They currently don't have the idea of ​​love. Also, your apprentice is not yet an adult!" Xu Heng used rich body language, gesticulating with his left hand and tapping with his right hand. After a lot of analysis, Hermes was confused.

Do you think you forced your way into someone's heart and are just a guest?

"Xu Heng, you don't have to open your heart, but the key is always in the hands of the people who built the house. You changed them, do you think they won't have any thoughts about you?"

"Changed them? What nonsense are you talking about? People have confusions, and these confusions are personal. Only individuals can solve them. I don't have the ability to wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep. People always have questions. I just give my answers and open the floodgates of thinking. It is people who ultimately shape themselves."

Well, I can’t argue anymore, so Hermes gives up.

Xu Heng rolled his eyes at him and continued to eat noodles in big mouthfuls, without any proper eating manners.

Perhaps it is precisely because he can have such thoughts and has no ulterior motives at all that he is charming.

After eating and drinking, Hermes simply suggested sleeping here, even though the house was small and he was still in pain, so he was too lazy to go back - the master's house was on Tianmen Peak, a room carved out of the stone wall of the mountain, making it convenient to go to the top of the mountain to discuss at any time, and no one would disturb him.

"Okay! I've been waiting for you to say that! Come! Guide me in my practice!" Xu Heng smiled and took out a long and thick scroll.

The time he felt the fighting spirit most realistically was when he was fighting Jelamet in the ring and his body reacted automatically.

"Tsk, don't you want to be a pure mage? Why practice fighting skills?" Hermes frowned.

Xu Heng told Hermes his idea, and he was surprised: "You are great! You know how to use your brain. You are worthy of being a nerd's brain."

Nerd is a derogatory term used by the people of Tianmen to refer to the group of great wizards on Hongdao.

……

"Almost there! Almost there! Come on! Push harder!"

"Here it comes! I feel it!"

"Pfft~"

The gray fighting spirit circled around Xu Heng's fingertips and quickly disappeared under his expectant gaze.

Xu Heng was maintaining a horse stance with his hands clenched into palms - this was the traditional Hermetic posture for feeling the in and out of fighting qi.

His whole body was tense, trying to maintain the feeling of squeezing his body that Hermes had asked him to imagine, but this was the result.

"You don't even release more Dou Qi than I do when I fart! You have so much Dou Qi in your body, why can't you mobilize it?" Hermes patted his head, unable to figure out why. "Where's your domain? Try using it?"

"Well, I don't know how to use it, it's like automatic..."

"Huh? What about this?"

Hermes suddenly punched out, but not fast. Xu Heng's eyes froze, and his body seemed to accelerate instantly, dodging the punch.

But it was not over yet. After Xu Heng dodged the punch, his body was already floating in the air. Hermes rushed over, covered his chest with one hand, released his fighting spirit, and began to explore the direction of the fighting spirit in Xu Heng's body, which had not yet calmed down.

Xu Heng, who had reacted, did not resist and waited for the answer: "Hey, something is wrong, Xu Heng, your fighting spirit is running, but it is running automatically... I understand! Only when you activate your domain, you will have 100% control over your fighting spirit. Your domain has patterned the way your body moves..."

After Hermes's judgment, Xu Heng had a general understanding of why he could not use his fighting spirit.

There is a reason why Xu Heng's field "talent" is activated when facing a crisis.

First, the domain will draw on the fighting spirit to stimulate Xu Heng's thinking, allowing him to capture more information from the outside world. When the domain is activated, Xu Heng is completely focused on things outside of himself.

Then the sense of control over the body will decrease, but you must respond based on the information you receive.

For ordinary people, using Dou Qi is like learning to ride a bicycle. Once you learn to balance, that's enough, and the body can subconsciously maintain balance.

But once the control of the body is reduced, it will be like riding a bicycle without looking at the road, and the bicycle will go crooked.

Because Xu Heng's domain was not created in battle, or in other words, it was not for fighting, but for survival - Hermes understood this very early.

Therefore, the mind is supplied first, and then the body. If this switch is made, the luck pattern will be disordered, and the gain will definitely outweigh the loss - Xu Heng's body is instantly strengthened, so it is definitely not just the mind that is strengthened.

Therefore, Xu Heng's body and mind took a compromise approach, locking the luck mode and turning it into autonomous braking for a moment.

In many of Xu Heng's battles, he would think carefully before defeating his opponent in one move. He might not realize why he did so, but his body could not deceive anyone.

Xu Heng has been using Dou Qi for a long time, and the pattern has been solidified. His mind is calm, but his body is actually in a state of stress.

Therefore, Xu Heng cannot actively use domain or perception, otherwise his body cannot be prepared, which is not conducive to survival.

The process must be as follows: perceive danger - open the field - analyze and think - prepare the body - then react.

It’s as if the field becomes a new body feedback mechanism.

However, supporting thinking is not the essence of the field, this is an illusion. The true attribute of Xu Heng’s field should be “patterning”.

This kind of field is obviously designed to quickly brake when danger occurs, and to constantly modify the mode of facing danger in an adapted environment until it is finally fixed.

This is reflected in Xu Heng's strong control over his body, but it is not his subjective control, but rather a passive control combining the environment and the body. Such a field is not only introverted, but also passive, which is extremely rare.

The most obvious example is when Xu Heng fights with other people. The more times you fight with him, the harder it is to defeat him. Many times it is not that he has become stronger, but that he has adapted to you, making his mind and body develop a mode of fighting against you.

"Wait, part of my brain is hot. Can I understand it this way, that my domain has become one of my organs?" Xu Heng felt his brain was hot.

Does fighting spirit have to do with biology? What about adapting to the environment and body feedback? It seems that warriors are not completely without theoretical research!

"It can be understood this way. Your field is very special. If you can truly master your field and let it produce specific patterns according to your guidance, such as using two fighting skills at the same time, then it will be terrible! But it is impossible. Precisely because of the patternization, you cannot actively manage your fighting spirit." Hermes looked like a scholar at the moment, and his analysis was very logical.

"But death energy can! Death energy is not restricted by my body!" Xu Heng suddenly exclaimed, his eyes shining. "Then can I cast a lot of magic instantly?"

"In theory, you can. But, you want to use two energies at the same time? Like me? And hurt yourself? You are not me. And since the death energy cannot be completely managed by you, it will not be supplied to the domain. I feel that your domain and your fighting style will not be combined in the future." Hermes refuted Xu Heng's point of view authoritatively.

"No, Julie, why does Hermes disagree with you?" Xu Heng was silent and quickly asked Julie in his mind.

"Tsk tsk, Hermes is indeed a genius. It seems that the warrior's understanding of the domain is very necessary for reference... Well, let me tell you, warriors rely more on the coordination of domain and energy, but mages rely more on magic. Otherwise, why do warriors have fighting skills, while mages only have magic equations? When it comes to the coordination of energy and body, I admit that I am not as good as a warrior." Julie's tone was very excited, as if she had discovered a new continent. She was not at all disappointed for her wrong judgment.

The meaning is very simple. For magicians, domain is useful, but it is only to assist magic. For warriors and fighting skills, it is useful to assist the domain to perform better.

That would really be a headache for Xu Heng. The theories and techniques of this practice could be used to write hundreds of books.

"But since you have this fighting skill book, you may have a way." Hermes smiled mysteriously, "I have also learned this fighting skill. Its principle is very simple, which is to use fighting spirit to calm the body, and then calm the practitioner down. And you can actually practice it. It's very clever. Maybe you can use it to make the fighting spirit in your body compatible with the dead spirit."

"Oh! You have practiced before! Why didn't you say so earlier!" Xu Heng went from hope to disappointment and then back to hope. The roller coaster ride along the way was unbearable for him.

"That's because if you want to practice, you must be in battle, so that your domain can be expanded and luck can flow in your body. In other words, if I ask you to participate in the ranking competition, will you do it?"
