Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Dageno died, and the color of his huge body gradually darkened, forming a mass of black matter that continued to compress and condense, and finally turned into a drop of dark black liquid floating in the air, slowly drifting towards Mo Rong.

"Oh my goodness, he is worthy of being called the Void General. The void matter condensed after his death is not only more dense than before, but also quite heavy."

Seeing the liquid as big as his thumb floating in front of him, Mo Rong had already been coveting it, and he grabbed it in his hand. In an instant, the liquid extended out from between his fingers and turned into a thin film that wrapped his body.

Different from the comfortable feeling brought by previous absorption, Mo Rong was just about to close his eyes and enjoy the reward of defeating Dageno, when the next moment he suddenly felt a sharp pain like a broken bone all over his body, as if a big hand was grasping him in it, constantly exerting force to crush him.

"Fuck... this force is so strong!"

When Radiance saw the scene, there was a hint of weirdness in his eyes.

This guy doesn't have any weird habits...

The violent force constantly broke and reshaped Mo Rong's body, making it look like a piece of constantly changing plasticine, mixed with screams of pain and pleasure. After a while, everything returned to calm.

Mo Rong opened his eyes and looked at his body. Although there was no obvious growth, the void matter that made up his body had a faint light, making him look more mysterious and noble.

Just gave a skin?

Mo Rong frowned, then seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up, and he immediately threw the bone nail in his hand high up, so that the tip of the nail pierced straight into himself.

Is this guy crazy... Under Radiance's suspicious gaze, Mo Rong didn't move at all, but the bone nail fell all the way down and stuck into the ground without any obstruction.

Then Mo Rong turned forward and after a certain distance, his arms suddenly drooped down, his five fingers twisted and curled up, wrapping around the bone nails like a whip, just like Dageno did before.

The bone nail fell steadily into his palm. Mo Rong first lowered his head, his body trembling, and finally he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahahaha—I made money, I made a lot of money!"

He had been envious since he saw Dageno use the continuous virtualization, and the ability to freely control the tendrils was even more amazing. Having one of the two would be a huge improvement, and now both were in his hands. How could he not be excited?

"Don't be happy too soon. This kind of technique is ultimately a minor skill in front of the gods. If you want to defeat the void with it, the road ahead will be long and arduous."

Radiance's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Mo Rong's head, which really dampened his mood. But it was also the truth. With her blessing, his bone nails could attack Dageno in his virtualized state, not to mention facing the Origin of the Void God with such skills.

“The road may be difficult, but it is not long.”

Mo Rong's gaze moved forward. Just as he was happy, the void light particles around him began to gather continuously. In the distance, a stone egg that was a circle larger than him had formed. The next moment, there was a series of cracking sounds, and the stone egg turned into pieces on the spot, revealing a slender figure inside.

"Long time no see, senior."

Mo Rong no longer needed to look up at this point as he met Ying's eyes.

Unlike the empty gaze in his impression, Mo Rong frowned. He actually felt a different kind of indifference from it, but he didn't think much about it. After all, this is the Void Pantheon, and it is hard to say whether the senior was influenced by it.

Moreover, the ranking of the senior is even lower than that of Dageno, who is a pure void general. This battle may be as hard as the previous one...

Ying did not respond. The two looked at each other for a long time, until one moment, they moved at the same time tacitly.

Mo Rong had fought with his predecessors before, so even though he had changed his appearance, he was still roughly confident in his heart. In addition, as the time of virtualization was extended, his confidence also increased a lot as his tolerance for error increased.

"Senior, I'm going to trample Malena!"

The two dark arms outside the body suddenly turned into two dancing tendrils, and like two poisonous snakes that locked onto the invader, they opened their bloody mouths towards Shadow.

boom--!

There was a loud bang, and sand and stones filled the air. Mo Rong looked carefully, but when he squinted his eyes, he couldn't find the figure of his senior. His inner alarm bells suddenly rang.

"Watch your back!"

Radiant light roared, wishing she could go out and block the knife for Mo Rong. Although her reaction was quick, she was still a step slower than Shadow. At the same time she roared, the latter's bone nail had already pierced Mo Rong's chest.

"Keep your voice down, your brain is about to turn into mush."

The moth-wing cloak wrapped Mo Rong and he retreated. Ying's bone nails were pulled out, and there was no wound left at the place where they were pierced before.

The dream fluctuations of Radiant Light caught Mo Rong's attention earlier than her reminder, and he immediately activated the Void state without hesitation, otherwise he would have become a lifeless corpse by now.

"How come it was so fast? I didn't even hear any sound."

Mo Rong's face was solemn. He had not noticed the senior's whereabouts until he was pierced by the bone nail. This elusive movement really frightened him.

He didn't see it, but Radiance saw it clearly. Shadow clearly emerged from the shadow behind him and delivered the fatal blow.

Mo Rong listened to her story with his eyes fixed on Ying, not daring to be careless anymore.

"Emerging from the shadows? It didn't seem to have such skills in the previous battle with the senior. It seems that this Pantheon has done something..."

There are shadows almost everywhere in this dim environment. In other words, the shadow can appear anywhere in the field at will. Mo Rong couldn't help but be amazed when he realized this.

"But you have your own plan, and I... have my own way to get around the wall!"

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he flapped his wings and flew into the air.

This method may seem simple, but it can restrain Shadow's trick. No matter where the latter appears in the air, he cannot launch an attack in the first time, thus directly solving the hidden danger of slow reaction.

As for a safer attack... Mo Rong's arms holding the two bone nails suddenly softened, and he began to copy Dageno's moves.

However, this trick was not learned secretly and could not pose a threat to Shadow, so Mo Rong did not plan to pin his hopes on it. Instead, he watched the opportunity to dive down, and when the senior appeared after diving into the Shadow again, he blasted out a blow to the Shadow Soul.

The timing was clever, as it happened at the moment when Ying was stiffened for a moment, and the latter unsurprisingly took the blow.

Won’t it blur?

Mo Rong secretly thought it was strange that his plan was going too smoothly, so smoothly that it was a little bit...

The shadow's steps were seen retreating again and again, and the power of the shadow soul was gradually dissipating, but the next moment Mo Rong's pupils trembled violently, as if he had seen something incredible.

The soul power that was constantly dissipating from the Shadow Soul was actually being continuously absorbed by the predecessor!
