Mysterious journey

When he returned to his bedroom, Hesas never came out again.

Galen sat alone on the bed, observing his attribute column from time to time. Unknowingly, his spirit, that is, intelligence attribute dropped again, from the original 2.4 to 2.2, a direct loss of 0.2 points.

"No, didn't you say it would only drop by 0.1?" Garen suddenly remembered the reminder he had seen earlier.

Suddenly, he noticed another inexplicable change on the previous nightmare weakness icon.

‘Nightmare Weakness 2: A weakness that has been superimposed once will permanently weaken the subject’s average attributes by 0.2 within five days. The effects are irreversible. ’

He quickly stood up, turned on the light, and walked to the full-length mirror.

"Trouble" Garen frowned slightly.

He thought it was temporary before, but now it seems that it is permanent!

His attributes have been trained little by little since he was a child. Even if it is 0.1, it requires a little bit of potential points. If two 0.1s are lost at once, it is equivalent to the loss of two potential points!

"Is there a way to eliminate him? Hesas."

He asked in a low voice in ancient Yinduo language in front of the mirror.

‘You decide to swear, and I will tell you how to lift it. ’ The writing of Hesas appeared on the skin of his right shoulder.

'By the way, I would like to remind you that when the nightmare debility is superimposed for the third time, your body will permanently weaken significantly again. However, it is commendable that you were alert very quickly and immediately noticed something was wrong as soon as it happened. I thought it would take another two days for you to feel it. ’

He paused.

‘You have to be careful. This change is irreversible. Even if it’s too late, I won’t be able to restore your lost physical fitness. So make your decision early. ’

"What oath do you want me to swear?" Garen asked in a low voice.

‘A very simple oath, but also a very difficult oath. ’ Hesas had no intention of selling out. ‘Pursue the void creatures forever until their existence is completely wiped out, no matter in any world! Swear in the name of the mother river! ’ His intense hatred for void creatures is faintly revealed between the lines.

"Is there a time limit?" Unexpectedly, Garen did not pay attention to the content of this oath.

‘Of course not, but the Mother River Oath must be fulfilled with all your heart. This hatred from the nation will be transferred to you. You will involuntarily inherit this hatred and hunt down and pursue the existence of void creatures. ’ Hesas seemed very candid. 'I don't want you to regret it later. ’

"Do I still have a choice?" Garen asked.

Hesas was silent for a moment.

‘Indeed not. ’

The void creatures have already found Garen and have taken action against him. In this case, Garen has no need to hesitate.

"I promise you, in the name of the Mother River, I will hunt down void creatures forever and eliminate them completely!"

Garen replied in a low voice.

‘In the name of Guyinduo. The spirit of the warlock will inspire you in the mother river! They are both supervisors and facilitators. They watch you, and if necessary, you can summon their main body in the mother river to help you fight. ’ Hesas replied in a deep voice.

"Are they still alive?"

'No, it is just a trace of their past existence, a mark of the past recorded by the mother river, but their strong yearning will make their mark respond to your call, countless heroes, former gods, and us forty The two strongest demon kings, all imprints of existence who swear to destroy the creatures of the void, will answer your call. ’ Hesas replied solemnly. It seems to have some strange sense of historical mission.

Garen also suddenly felt an extremely strong heaviness.

"Then how to swear?" No matter what, he needed to solve the problem of nightmare weakness as soon as possible.

‘Swear by your soul seed and make him shake. ’ The writing of Hesas reappeared.

Garen was silent for a moment.

The voice sounded slowly.

"I swear by the soul seeds." As soon as he finished speaking, the soul seeds in his mind vibrated instantly, as if these sentences had some special meaning. What was very strange was that he said this sentence in ancient Yinduo language. At this time, the tone of the voice seemed to be singing some kind of song, which was extremely weird.

‘For eternity and eternity, I will hunt down the void creatures until they are exterminated. ’

"For eternity, hunt down the creatures of the void until they are exterminated!" Garen read out following Hesas' words.

In an instant, he seemed to feel that something inexplicable separated from his eyebrows, flew into the air in front of him, and disappeared. He didn't know what it was, but that inexplicable feeling of separation made him feel a little uncomfortable.

‘That is the true spirit. ’ A deep male voice sounded in his ears.

Garen narrowed his eyes and hesitated.

"Are you Hesas?" he asked in a low voice.

‘Of course, you swore, swore by your soul seed, and also called out the name of the mother river. Ancient Yinduo language has the effect of causing resonance and vibration in the universe. It is one of the mysterious words, so the oath was successful. A little bit of your true spirit is separated, returned to the eternal mother river, and becomes a little imprint in it. ’ Hesas whispered, ‘In this way, my mark can also directly communicate with your mark in the mother river, thereby achieving the purpose of direct dialogue. ’

He paused.

‘In this way, if you return to Mother River in the future, those who come after you will also be able to summon your main combat power through the summoning mark. ’

"Does this affect me?" Garen frowned.

'It doesn't matter, it just marks you as a true part of our heritage. We Guyinduo are somewhat different from the ancient warlocks. We believe in the eternal mother river and the mysterious and eternal underworld. So you are now considered a true inheritor. ’ Hesas’s deep voice was hoarse and contained a certain charm.

"What's the point of this?" Garen asked confused.

'Of course it makes sense. ’

Hesas's voice suddenly fell silent.

Hiss.

Suddenly, Garen found that strands of black smoke and black air began to seep out from all over his body, and strands of black air continued to gather and condense behind him.

Soon the black smoke formed a vague black human shape.

This humanoid figure was more than two meters tall, even taller than him. Black smoke was billowing all over his body, with only two scarlet eyes shining on his head.

‘In the name of the Mother River, I give you a new destiny, Void Stalker. ’

The moment Hesas whispered these words in a low and charming voice.

Garen only felt his whole body sinking suddenly. It was as if there was something special on his body, like he was wearing an inexplicable layer of armor, and it was like nothing happened.

His skin felt hot, as if it had been rubbed by something rough, and his whole body felt hot.

‘Within five days, find and kill the void creature that cursed you, and your weakness will be eliminated. This is also a trial for you. ’ Hesas whispered.

"What's the use of this? The identity of this Void Stalker." Garen moved his body, but felt no change.

‘Without this identity, you can’t relieve the weakness even if you kill that void creature. This is a disease of the soul, a plague of the soul. ’

After Hesas finished speaking, his figure immediately dissipated and turned into a ball of black energy that kept rolling and floating.

‘You have awakened me and practiced my secret martial arts. To a certain extent, you can summon my mother river mark more easily. Of course if you want to. ’

His voice came from the black smoke ball.

"Let's talk about it later." Garen did not respond directly. "So you will always act with me in the future?"

'if you are willing to. ’

The black smoke ball immediately shrank quickly and turned into a black ring, with two red lines inlaid with scarlet gemstones on it.

The ring floated gently in front of Garen, and he grabbed it and put it on the middle finger of his left hand.

‘I can help you guard against attacks by void creatures to a certain extent. In addition, you can also save more consumption when summoning the mark of my body. ’

"What does it cost to summon?"

‘Anything is OK, the mother river is all-encompassing, as long as it is the energy of the nature of life, anything is OK. But be careful not to over-consume, which is likely to consume your own lifespan, not of your body, but of your soul. ’ Hesas reminded. ‘Afterwards, I will teach you the real key to dealing with void creatures. Don’t worry, he will come to you soon, and I will help you then.’

The voice fell silent.

Garen stood alone in front of the full-length mirror, carefully stroking the black ring on his finger.

He suspected that Hesas was hiding something. You must know that at the beginning, Hesas wanted to seize the body and was defeated by him. Now he suddenly appeared to help him without asking for anything in return. This made him feel deeply. of vigilance.

But the attack by the void creatures was indeed imminent, so he had to rely on his power.

"Don't worry, take your time and wait and see. Any intention will eventually be exposed." Garen's heart became more and more eager to gain more potential points. If he has enough potential points, he can quickly increase his strength and reach an extremely powerful level. Maybe we can find the key to dealing with void creatures.

He looked at his status bar.

At the end of the attribute column, there was something like the title of Void Stalker.

‘Void Stalker: The inheritor of the ancient Yindu civilization, and the void race have been sworn enemies for generations. He has the innate ability to heal and strengthen himself by seizing the core of void creatures. That is the gifted power eternally given by the mysterious power of Guyinduo. ’

"Alisha, bring me my towel."

Aisharo shouted from the bathroom.

"Right away." Arisa put down the fashion magazine in her hand, got up from the bed and ran to the other bathroom in the living room.

Quickly taking off her sister's white towel, and walking out of the bathroom, she suddenly glanced at the door unconsciously, where there was a faint fishy smell.

"What does it smell like?" she murmured softly. Slowly slow down and walk to the gate.

Suddenly, she saw a little faint red liquid flowing in from the crack of the door.

"This is..." She knelt down and lightly dipped her fingers into the liquid and smelled it.

"It's blood!" she exclaimed in a low voice.

"elder sister!!"
