It was dark in front of him. After a short while, Zhang Tie realized that he was wrapped in a thick, dark mucous membrane and hard shell like a silkworm cocoon.
'How could I not be suffocated to death? '
A whim occurred to Zhang Tie's mind. Closely after that, he started to move his limbs. After tearing off the mucous membrane and hard shell, he walked out of the cocoon.
After walking out of the cocoon, Zhang Tie was still not adapted to the soft light outside. He slightly narrowed his eyes. After a few seconds, he started to look around here.
Abyan, who was also wrapped in the 2-m higher bloody cocoon, was completely dead. He had completely become a dry corpse. His body had shrunk by almost half. Like a piece of dried lizard meat, he widely opened his mouth with a fearful look. A sharp horn was still inserted in his chest.
After throwing a glance at Abyan, Zhang Tie moved his eyes away from Abyan's body.
At the sight of the small manjusaka tree, Zhang Tie became reassured at once. As long as he was in Castle of Black Iron, he would be safe. However, this small tree in front of him was a bit different than that he saw a few days ago. Concretely, it seemed to have grown taller with denser foliage. However, the surrounding houses remained unchanged. However, the space in Castle of Black Iron was a bit different than what he had seen before.
Zhang Tie remembered that when he came here last time, the space in Castle of Black Iron was less than 1 km in length and width. However, at this moment, the space in front of him was more than 10 km in length and width. Its length and width were both about ten kilometers, and its surface area had expanded by about a hundred times. As far as the eye could see, what appeared in front of him was a verdant plain. There were all kinds of crops planted on the plain, and there were also large patches of forest. It was a scene of prosperity and lush birds and fragrant flowers. A few kilometers away, there was a hill that was 100 meters high. The forest on the hill was undulating, and there was a glittering lake in the distance, which was about 20 square kilometers in size. This made Zhang Tie even more astonished.
If not the small tree and the rolling colorful clouds in Castle of Black Iron, Zhang Tie almost thought that he had come to the wrong place.
However, the feeling of being reborn was really good.
At this moment, according to the light in Castle of Black Iron, it was noon. Some busy bees flew by Zhang Tie as if they were attracted by Zhang Tie's smell. It started to circle around Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie could feel the pleasure of those bees.
After standing there for a few seconds, Zhang Tie found that Heller was not here. Therefore, he came to the brook not far from him and prepared to bend down to clean himself. At this moment, Zhang Tie felt that his original clothes had been too tattered and corroded. They were even more like beggars. Additionally, he felt a bit sticky, which made him very uncomfortable.
Zhang Tie came to the riverside and squatted down. When he took off the pair of Dark Ripper gloves that were still intact, he saw his own hands.
After taking off the gloves, Zhang Tie saw that his hands were completely different from his original hands. They were covered with black scaly skin, and each fingernail was as sharp as a blade, faintly emitting a cold light.
"Ah..." Zhang Tie was so scared that he exclaimed loudly. Staggering back, Zhang Tie almost fell onto the ground. However, when he fell backward, he felt that there was one more foot on his back. After bouncing off the ground, Zhang Tie stabilized himself. Zhang Tie turned his head and wanted to see what it was. However, the moment he ran his mind, that thing had already moved to his front from his back flexibly, allowing him to see it clearly...
Like the tail on Master Abyan's body, the tail on Zhang Tie's body was as flexible as the third hand or the third foot of Zhang Tie's body...
Zhang Tie was so scared that his face changed greatly. He was completely flurried. At the same time, with a sound of "Chi la", his clothes were torn while a pair of wings stretched out from his shoulders and back. Each wing was longer than 3 m. The huge and powerful wings flapped in a flurried way, lifting Zhang Tie's feet off the ground.
After his clothes were torn apart, Zhang Tie saw a layer of black scales over his body. In the reflection in the brook, Zhang Tie saw the single horn in the middle of his forehead.
Zhang Tie raised his head and shrieked miserably, "What the hell happened? Ah... how did I become like this?"
At this time, in addition to the change in appearance, he found that his voice had also begun to become muffled. The vocal cords in his throat were quite strange. Every time he spoke, he would naturally respond with a kind of hoarse voice.
Heller rushed over from afar and stopped a few meters away from Zhang Tie. Not until he saw Heller's calm look did Zhang Tie recover his intense, flurried and flurried mood a bit.
At this moment, the pair of huge wings flapping frantically on his body had already brought him seven or eight meters into the air, where he stopped.
"Ahh, Heller, what's wrong with me? How come I look like Abyan..."
"Castle Lord, don't be flurried. You can come down. I will explain it to you slowly!" Heller told Zhang Tie while raising his head.
"Ah... erm... erm, how do I come down? I can't stop!"
"You can. This is your instinct in this state. Like walking and breathing, as long as you're not flurried and gradually recover your composure, you will know how to come down!"
Hearing Heller's calm voice, Zhang Tie gradually recovered his composure. When Zhang Tie wanted to come down, he flapped his wings and landed on the ground steadily.
The wings, which were covered with a layer of powerful membrane, suddenly retracted.
Before Zhang Tie opened his mouth, Heller had drawn something in the air, displaying a three-dimensional image in front of Zhang Tie...
...
After more than 10 minutes. Hearing Heller's explanation, Zhang Tie became dumbfounded at the sight of the two groups of four helical DNA slowly fusing with each other.
"You mean, in that situation, it was not him who devoured me, but me who devoured him? What's this horn-like thing? How could it be so powerful that it could break Abyan's protective battle qi and constantly devour his life energy and transmit it to me? "Zhang Tie said as he stroked that sharp horn-like thing in his hand.
"Do you remember the legend about passing the trial in Wild Wolf Valley?"
"You mean the gold-eating boa that shocked the entire corridor of Blackson Clan?"
"Right, this sharp thing is a tooth of an adult gold-eating boa. It's also the most special thing on a gold-eating boa. This thing is born with the bizarre ability to devour and penetrate everything like that of a gold-eating boa. After you injected your battle qi into it, this ability was activated. Therefore, you could use it to pierce through Abyan's protective battle qi. At the same time, Abyan was evolving into the second form of shadow demon. His DNA was very active and in a changing state. When you devoured each other, you formed a mysterious cycle. With the effect of this mysterious cycle, Abyan's evolution in the second form was reversed and integrated into your body. Therefore, you became what you are now. "
"Can I recover my previous look?" Zhang Tie asked.
"Yes, your previous look is your first form. Your current look is your second form, the ability of shadow demon. The ability of shadow demon will enable you to transform between different forms at will! "
"Am I a human or a demon in my current look?"
"It depends on your definition of human and demon!" Heller watched Zhang Tie with a profound and wise look.
"What do you mean?"
"If you distinguish demons and humans by looks, your current look will determine your race. If you distinguish demons and humans by DNA, you are neither a demon nor a human. Therefore, you're neither a demon nor a human at this moment because your DNA has the common features of the two clans. Your current state is a leap forward and mutation. If you want to distinguish humans and demons by ability, you're a pure demon. You could do all the abilities that a shadow demon could do. If you want to distinguish humans and demons by soul and awareness, you're still you, still a human! Of course, it's just your own recognition. If someone else saw your current look, he would only treat you as a demon. Any demon would treat you as a demon. Your first form would be treated as a shadow demon. Nobody would believe that you are still the original Zhang Tie! "
After hearing Heller's answer, Zhang Tie became stunned. His heart was full of bitterness. As a normal person, nobody would like to be like this.
"Therefore..."
"Therefore, besides knowing that you're a human, as long as you leave Castle of Black Iron, you would be nothing different than a demon. As long as your second form or special ability is exposed, you would be treated as a demon. Among the demons that humans hate the most, if shadow demon ranks second, no other demon would dare rank first. According to the nobility conferring rule set by the" Great Brilliance Charter ", after the holy war, anyone who kills you could get the title of a human lord. Do you know what it means?"
Of course, Zhang Tie knew that as long as he was exposed, he would be doomed to death.
"Oh, what's the time now? How long have I stayed in the bloody cocoon? I have to meet Barley and the other members of the Black Iron Calendar."
After watching Zhang Tie silently for over 10 seconds, Heller opened his mouth, "It's August 14th, the 903rd year of Black Iron Calendar according to the calendar of the world where you come from …"
