Augustine furrowed his brows as he carefully controlled the spell with both hands. He carefully drew the conical pattern on the magic circle. No matter how thick the fog was around him, he had a look of indifference on his face.
As if sensing that the magic circle was about to be completed, the fog that was originally floating in the surroundings began to drift slowly. An invisible force actually caused all the fog in the area to spin. Augustine, who was in the center, finished carving the last few lines without any distractions. After that, he used his magic power to slowly lift the magic circle above the forest.
"It's over."
The purple fog spun faster and faster. As Augustine raised his hand and pointed, the fog, which was close to the ground, was suddenly swept up by a suction force and crashed into the black conical array.
"Buzz …"
Some kind of fluctuation began to spread. Clearly, the array had been activated successfully!
Augustine's face lit up with joy, but before he could rejoice, his body trembled, and he took two steps back. In his senses, his incarnation had disappeared, and the power that he had lost in that instant caused Augustine's appearance to age at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The skin on his raised finger loosened, and his back was no longer as straight as before. But the information sent by the incarnation did not change his expression at all.
Instead, Augustine's lips curled up. He raised his hand, gritted his teeth, and gathered more purple fog toward the array.
"Finally, I've caught all the fish I wanted to catch …"
He looked at the thick purple fog, feeling extremely carefree. After risking the danger of being devoured by the 'Demon Summoning', he had already realized that Teflin's location might be a trap. Therefore, his' true body 'did not jump into the pit at all. Instead, he had arrived at the source of the detected' demonic aura 'and completed the array!
At that moment, Augustine was extremely glad that he had made this risky move. Otherwise, he would not have been able to find this place shrouded by a special barrier.
This area shrouded in purple fog was in the east of Tasman, but he had never discovered it for hundreds of years. This was because the pervasive 'demonic aura' was shrouded by the barrier. After countless years of accumulation, it had even condensed into a purple fog. Augustine saw many Xenogeneic skeletons there. The earliest Xenogeneics must have been affected by this.
All his efforts were not in vain. Now, no one could stop Augustine from completing the last step of his great plan.
"Devil's Gate … open."
The cryptic incantation seemed to have come from the abyss. As Augustine chanted, the last trace of the Mist was completely absorbed!
It was also at this moment that Augustine realized that the mountain beneath his feet wasn't just made of soil and stone. After the dense fog dispersed and the scenery became clear, he looked down from the symmetrical mountains around him and suddenly realized … that this should be the remains of some kind of giant creature.
As for himself, he was standing on the head of the corpse.
Where did this creature with a body that was a hundred meters wide come from? As soon as this question popped up in Augustine's mind, he realized that the answer was right in front of him. He raised his head and saw that the conical magic circle had been completely filled with mist and was glowing brightly.
"Crack!"
As if lightning had struck the ground, there was a sudden explosion, and the stones that formed the magic circle suddenly shattered from the center. Instead of scattering, the flying fragments began to collapse toward the center. In just a few seconds, the entire magic circle collapsed into a tiny sphere that was hard to see with the naked eye …
In just three seconds, with a terrifying and oppressive aura, the black sphere suddenly began to expand. Its volume instantly expanded thousands of times and became a huge black sphere with a diameter of more than two meters!
Boom!
The majestic demonic aura suddenly spread out, bringing with it purple flames that swept out in all directions!
The black sphere was like a glass ball, reflecting the scene inside the 'gate' — the other plane burning with endless purple flames.
At this point, Augustine's spell casting was completely over. He had already created this teleportation array according to the steps in the black book. Although it was only the most basic 'low-level teleportation array', it was extremely important to Augustine and even the entire Tasman undead …
How did the undead come about?
Why did the undead need the power of death?
What was the power of death?
Augustine had been searching for these questions for countless years to no avail. It was not until he obtained that book that he finally had a real goal to pursue. It was also through this book written in the demonic language that he understood what 'demons' were and what they had brought to this world …
"So … it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Augustine, who had an old face, now looked like a hunchback. The violent purple flames spread out from the 'Demon Gate', but they could not hurt him at all. However, his lonely figure was like a small boat in the raging fire, abnormally small.
Finally, the flames began to weaken, and the shaking teleportation array began to change — a purple light suddenly shot out and headed straight for Augustine!
He stood where he was and did not dodge. When the light shone on him, Augustine felt a vast and vigorous power suddenly pour into his body!
Power … An even more powerful power!
Jiang Yi's withered body was instantly transformed. Not only did his skinny muscles swell up, but purple spiral-shaped runic patterns also appeared on his body. Terrifying bone spikes extended from the joints of his arms. His body began to grow taller and longer, and long horns slowly extended from the top of his head.
Augustine closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the original white light in his eyes had been replaced by burning purple flames.
Augustine, who had been greatly weakened by the successive destruction of his two clones, had now returned to his peak. He had even gone one step further and touched the threshold of a true 'demigod'!
This was the purpose of his research on demons. The strength of the undead increased too slowly, and their limits were often fixed according to their bodies when they were 'alive'. Only by seeking fusion could they break through this shackle.
Otherwise, with the undead, there would only be decay and decay!
He took a deep breath and looked down at his hands.
He suddenly clenched his slender fingers, and the flames that were burning around him suddenly exploded!
With a wave of his hand, the scorched ground that was covered by sand and fallen leaves was instantly blown away by the flames, revealing a corner of the huge white skeleton below.
"Pure undead cannot become the overlord of the continent … This is the only way, and it must be …"
He turned to stare at the spherical "Devil's Gate", and immediately sensed that in another plane far away, there was a huge vertical pupil staring at him …
Although there was no verbal communication, Augustine clearly understood the other party's intentions in his mind. He frowned slightly, and then made a bowing gesture.
The pupil disappeared, and then the teleportation array expanded again, and countless black shadows poured out!
These creatures were two meters long, with four legs, and densely packed eyes on top of their heads. One look at their thick bodies, and one could tell that they were extremely strong. Their mouths were full of serrated teeth, and they were very lethal. Their more than a meter long tails flickered with purple light.
In just a few seconds, these so-called 'infected beasts' surged out of the teleportation array, and their numbers were still increasing.
After jumping out of the five to six meters tall teleportation array, they landed steadily on the ground. The two antennae on top of their huge mouths moved agilely, as if they were sniffing something. After that, they chose a target and charged straight at it. Hordes of 'infected beasts' ran past Augustine, avoiding his position.
Augustine turned his head and saw that a wild boar that was trying to escape a few hundred meters away was caught by the fast running 'infected beasts'. They pounced on the wild boar, and at the same time, they used their tails to stab the wild boar. The struggling wild boar twitched and stopped moving. After a few seconds, it stood up again with a violent aura. There were many bone spikes growing out of its body, and its body size had increased a lot. It was obvious that it had obtained the 'Demon's' bloodline …
Augustine was deep in thought, but when he heard the commotion in the distant sky, he turned around and looked at the three Dragons that were rushing towards him.
"It's a pity that you're too late."
Facing the sudden fireballs and icicles, Augustine bent his body slightly and leaped up. The bone scepter in his hand was wrapped in purple light, and he pointed it straight ahead.
*****
When Nora heard Roddy's shout, she reflexively looked into the distance.
She had never experienced the pain that the 'first generation' Teflin had experienced, so when she saw the purple flames, she was completely unaware of what was happening.
But the Demon's aura that engulfed her was like a wave of heat, making her feel as if her body was burning!
The armored soldiers in front of her did not seem to be affected. Whether it was the Dragon Lance Knights or the Barbarian Warriors, they were all looking around. But when Nora looked to her left and right, she found that her companions had the same painful expression on their faces …
"Hurry up and save them! My Lord! "
Nola heard Elder Luther's shout, but by this time, she had already fallen to the ground from the burning pain. Even her calves were twitching in pain. She could see her skin peeling off as if it had been scalded by boiling water. Her slender tail grew sharper spikes, and her legs became longer and more powerful. An indescribable power seemed to be pouring into her frail body.
"Ahhhhh —"
The screams continued to ring out, and Nora bit her lips to stop herself from losing control. However, more and more of her companions around her were screaming out uncontrollably. Just when she thought she was going to faint from the pain, a golden light suddenly bloomed and seemed to instantly drive away the pain, leaving only the soreness and numbness of the increase in strength.
Crawling up awkwardly, Nora realized that Akasha, who was wearing her robes, was raising her white scepter high and casting the 'Group Healing Spell' over and over again …
The golden light dazzled Nora's eyes, but the pain in her body subsided. Not only that, she suddenly felt that her body seemed to have broken through some kind of limit —
