Chapter 122 The Limitations of Shadow Sorcerers?

Chapter 122 The Limitations of Shadow Sorcerers?

"kindness?"

Tangyuan, who had been guarding the corpse not far from the city gate for two days, suddenly sensed something and stood up abruptly.

His intuition told him that something powerful was approaching.

Without hesitation, all the shape-shifting shadows within the Shadow Domain transformed into sharp blades, stabbing towards the person who had invaded their territory.

He was a tall northerner, wearing a simple leather armor in the dead of winter, with most of his muscles exposed. His attire was extremely casual, but his beautiful body would make even a man's heart skip a beat. Some of the onlookers, especially the women, almost went weak in the knees in an instant. Every physiological reaction told them about the man's charm. Any woman who saw such a body would feel a desire to have a child with him.

boom!

The sound of shattering came from the shadows, and the surrounding trees burst apart inch by inch. Having lost their shadows, they met the same fate as the shadows underground.

"Shadow magic formula? It's truly a rare existence." The man slowly walked in step by step. There are many professions in this world that are difficult to control, and the power of shadow is one of them. Any profession related to shadow will suffer a great backlash, which is why shadow-based healers are highly sought after, especially high-level ones. This is particularly evident in professions like warlocks, which require too much shadow power. They are often backlashed by shadows while controlling the formula. Legend has it that only the ancient, legendary bloodline can truly control this power.

According to the intelligence officer from Han Du, this kid only went into Holy Stone City for one day, yet he came out with such control, which is impossible under normal circumstances.

As far as I know, a shadow sorcerer who wants to master this power needs at least three years of specialized training. Without the help of a professional mentor, it could take at least ten years to figure it out on their own. Do you really think that being a supernatural profession is so easy?

one day.....

With that level of skill, there's no mistake, this kid is that kind of guy!

"What monster?" Tangyuan rolled on the spot, about to turn into shadow and escape.

Before he could make a move, the burly man who had been several feet away suddenly appeared in front of him as if time had jumped out of his body.

Grabbing my own hand felt like being branded with a scorching hot iron, causing me to wince in pain, yet I was deeply shocked.

He couldn't see the other person's movements clearly, but he could roughly guess that the reason the other person's hands were burning hot was because the speed was too fast, causing friction between the flesh and the air to create high temperatures. What kind of physical quality would allow someone to remain unaffected by such high temperatures?

Moreover, my shadow technique was shattered as soon as it got close to the opponent's shadow. Does the opponent's shadow have this kind of strength?

"The weakness of shadow magic is its extreme limitation." The burly man calmly looked at the objects around him that were shattered along with the shadows and said, "Even if they can corrupt the entire castle, their quality is no different from that of the castle itself. They are very effective against some low-level professions, but when the physical body reaches a certain strength, these external objects become shadows and lose their effect. Therefore, the Empire rarely trains shadow magicians. One reason is that the cost is too high, as their power requires a space that corrupts reality, and the second reason is that their power is not as reliable as imagined."

As he spoke, he glanced at the burn wound on the arm he was holding, where the blood flowing out was clearly a murky black.

"As expected..." Gelster's eyes were filled with surprise. He hadn't expected that what was recorded in those forbidden books was true. The legendary Shadow Clan really existed and could perfectly merge with humans. This must be what the Duke had been hoping for.

Now that the shadows have appeared, the elves must be just around the corner, right?

According to legend, the Elven Empire was destroyed by the Shadow Isles. If it weren't for the emergence of a group of human heroes on the Shadow Isles, this world would have been shrouded in shadow long ago. Has this incredibly dangerous and terrifying race made a comeback?

"Capture him and take him back for research!"

The knight behind him grabbed the glutinous rice ball that Gelster had thrown at him. The glutinous rice ball felt a strong force gripping it. In the dead of winter, the knight who had grabbed him was encased in thick iron armor, yet his body radiated an astonishing heat that melted the snowflakes that approached. That vibrant life force made him realize that even the soldier following behind the knight was someone he had to look up to.

At least level 40 or higher!

In an instant, the exhilarating feeling of having complete control plummeted to rock bottom. I was still far from being good enough; I couldn't afford to get carried away.

But what do we do now?

Suicide?

But what happens after the suicide? The body will probably be used for research, right? I should have known better than to pretend to be a hero and guard the body; I've really messed things up now.

We need to quickly send a message to the remaining brothers: the big boss is here!

"It seems that something important has been alerted..."

'

In the distance, Eliza, who had already entered the forest, seemed to sense something. As the acting city lord, her authority seal instantly sensed the powerful life form approaching outside the city's barrier.

"Do you want to go back?" Yu Nu asked indifferently.

Eliza shook her head: "I haven't received any diplomatic requests. As the city lord, even if Duke Raven comes, I can refuse to show up without prior diplomatic requests, unless they dare to attack Holy Stone City directly. If they dare to do that, then we definitely can't go back."

Rain Woman nodded. If the enemy dared to attack Holy Stone City, there would be no point in going back. Escape was the only way. She didn't think the Shadow Kingdom's power could contend with an empire. The envoy didn't even have the ability to walk in daylight. Both elves and shadows needed time to lie low.

The problem is that all players, especially those who have gained power, should keep this a secret. The remaining players, in order to enjoy the secrets of Holy Stone City, certainly won't reveal this information either. So who could it be?

She suddenly remembered something: a guild that had been eliminated from the very beginning by Sweet Rice Dumplings finding excuses.

Are those guys from Han Du?

Did they flip the table? So fast?

However, this was not unexpected. Mr. Bright's plan included eliminating guilds. Since guild leaders were not getting any benefits, they were very likely to overturn the table and leave everyone empty-handed. This was a normal reaction for many people.

Mr. Bright had anticipated this, but the key was that guy named Tangyuan at the door. Other players could hide or escape, but Tangyuan was too conspicuous, and he was probably caught by now.

This is causing some trouble.

Mr. Bright, you'd better hurry, things seem to be getting increasingly out of control.

"Hmm?" The messenger with the coordinates quickly sensed something; a powerful human was rapidly approaching by using their tracks.

He wasn't surprised by this. His movements were too commotion, and he would definitely be seen whenever he went out. But he couldn't do anything about it. Theoretically, as an envoy, he could only act more smoothly when the artifact activated the shadow barrier in a specific location. But now the artifact was lost and the shadow transformation function was still activated. If this continued, the artifact's power would go out of control, and the shadow hut in Holy Stone City, which relied on the artifact for balance, would probably collapse.

Without that thing, I would be nothing more than a shadow in this world, constantly being burned to death by the scorching sun, unable to survive even a day!

We must find the artifact before dawn, no matter what, even if it alarms the Beth Empire.

River? Why would it possess the power of shadow?

By following the marks on Li Gou Dan's body, he quickly found the river. However, a situation arose that made him hesitant to act rashly: there seemed to be a very familiar force in the river, a force that made him afraid to approach it easily.

That's... the Shadow Isles?

Why is the power of the Shadow Isles here?

The old man was shocked. After recognizing that power, he felt that he had to go back. He had to tell those above that there were clues to the Shadow Isles, the Shadow Isles that had once sealed the Child of Shadow and caused the Shadow Kingdom's revival to fail!

boom!

In the midst of shock, a horse neighed behind them, and galloping towards them was a team of elite knights. The lead knight was clad in leather armor and carried a longsword imbued with divine power, which, with the power of ice, froze all the shadows that passed by!

"Who are you?" Gelster was already in full combat mode even before he got close. The other person's aura made him uneasy. Even though he possessed a legendary weapon bestowed by the empire and had elite imperial cavalry, he still had a feeling of seeing his own death in front of this person.

"You dare risk your life to come here without knowing who I am?" The Shadow Messenger said without turning his head, "Humans really never lack warriors."

"Very well..." The Shadow Messenger glanced at Tangyuan, whom they had captured, and smiled, saying, "We were just in need of some toys to test the waters, and you've come at the perfect time!"
