Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws

When he killed the shadow monkey before, his body had already grown a little bit of dead air.

And now he got a continuous, river-like dead air, which was obviously gathered from the body of the shadow gorilla.

This also proved that the other party's life was constantly passing away.

Sensing the terrifying dead air in his body, Rune had to treat it more carefully.

At this moment, the dead air was lingering in his body, like a lying black venomous snake, which could explode and hurt people at any time.

At the same time, it became more and more condensed with time.

That kind of powerful destructive force even began to spread into his body.

Rune was also fortunate at this moment that he attached great importance to this breath from the beginning and did not let it run wild.

At the same time, he had the Wanfa Shengling Mantra in his body, which could make this breath completely controlled by himself.

Otherwise, if other people absorbed too much dead air, they would most likely be assimilated into the shadow creatures here.

And as the dead air increased, the Wanfa Shengling Mantra in his body actually moved by itself.

The two opposing auras of vitality and death were lingering in his body.

Like one yin and one yang, one good and one evil, they slowly rotated.

The two special abilities gradually reached a balance at this moment.

The two auras stagnated in Rune's body for a while, and finally calmed down completely.

And he could also feel that the aura of death was just a little bit away from condensing into a complete form.

However, compared with the living creatures of all laws, this aura lacked a rule and was a little scattered.

If the aura of death had a "backbone", then it might be able to form a second kind of spell, which would have a good reaction with the living creatures of all laws.

"So, now I need to collect enough aura of death and perfect its 'form'."

"As for where to find the rules that govern the aura."

Rune looked up at the trees that spread to the sky.

The texture of the branches of these trees is the rules!

Rune did not hesitate to find the idea of ​​the second alchemical spell.

"Colonel Henry, the shadow gorilla is seriously injured. I need to catch up with it. At the same time, we must go to the place where the 'tree' is."

"Okay." Henry did not ask why. He completely believed in Rune's judgment.

After communicating with the people of the Wisteria Principality, the two transport ships immediately chased in the direction where the shadow gorilla escaped.

Along the way, everyone also saw the traces left by the shadow gorilla's struggle before death.

From the large area of ​​black trees that were destroyed at the beginning to the smaller and smaller scope of destruction later, everyone also saw that the shadow gorilla was at the end of its strength.

The previous crazy struggle was just a last gasp.

This also made them feel relieved.

As the distance approached, everyone became more vigilant.

At this moment, they were getting closer and closer to the location where the shadow gorilla stayed.

At the same time, everyone was gradually approaching the location of the "tree".

Returning to this strange place, the surrounding black and purple smoke was floating,

A feeling of panic arose spontaneously.

Not long after, under a thicker black branch, everyone found the body of the shadow gorilla.

Its corpse was in a strange state.

With the weak wind, it gradually dissipated and turned into fine black powder and returned to the world.

The surrounding leaves, branches and black flowers greedily absorbed the dead power that the powder fed back to the world.

"The shadow gorilla is dead." Henry breathed a sigh of relief, and he looked at Rune, "Thanks to you, Carlo, we must find a way to leave as soon as possible!"

"We miscalculated entering the tomb this time. We must be more prepared next time."

The leader of the Wisteria Principality heard this and nodded affirmatively, "Let's find a way out quickly. I don't want to stay in this damn place for a moment!"

They both looked at Rune at the same time, wanting to know Rune's choice and opinion.

But at this time, Rune just shook his head and said, "It's not that simple."

"Be prepared for battle, there may be more than one shadow gorilla."

Everyone was very surprised when they heard this.

But no one doubted Rune's words.

Henry frowned and said, "Are there other shadow apes? That's a problem."

Lun nodded and said, "There should be. I can feel a strong breath at the location of the tree, which is exactly the same as the one in the shadow ape before."

"And don't forget, the members of the Twin Dragon Castle asked us to find their dragonborn Kalinno, but we haven't seen Kalinno until now."

"Before, the flesh and blood absorbed by those shadow monkeys obviously did not have such a strong dragonborn blood, which means Kalinno is still alive."

"If he is alive, where can he be? After thinking about it, it can only be where the tree is."

Lun said slowly.

"I discovered before entering this place that on this entire ancient battlefield, it seems that all life has an almost crazy desire for fresh blood."

"This desire comes from the instinct of pursuing vitality, so I guess that the shadow ape will not easily kill the dragonborn with strong vitality, and may use her to do something."

"So, Kalinno is an important "object" in the eyes of the shadow ape. Such an object cannot be left unguarded. Combined with the information detected before, I judge that there is definitely more than one shadow ape in front of me."

"And the shadow gorilla under the tree is definitely more powerful than the one in front of us."

After listening to Rune's inference, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"Then we have to prepare for another tough battle."

Hearing this, all the extraordinary people sighed.

However, with the previous combat experience, they were not so afraid of the next shadow gorilla.

It's just that the place in front of them was too depressing, which made people feel uncomfortable, and everyone wanted to leave as soon as possible.

After sorting out the information, everyone began to make all preparations before the battle.

The corpse of the shadow gorilla in front of them gradually dissipated as time passed.

Just at the end, when the last part of the shadow gorilla completely dissipated, a thunderous roar came from the tree.

Everyone was startled by the sound, but then they realized that this was the information that the companion of the shadow gorilla had noticed that his companion was completely dead.

The roar also alerted everyone, but after a long time, the other shadow gorilla did not come to them.

"It seems that Kalinno's importance is beyond our imagination, so that it can ignore the death of its companions."

"Then we must take the initiative." Henry said, "No matter what it wants to do, we can't let it succeed."

With the decision of the two, the two transport ships immediately rushed towards the tree.

Just when they were about a thousand meters away from the tree, everyone saw an incredible scene.

Kalinno, the dragon blood of Shuanglong Castle, had her hands and feet entangled in black pants and was hanging in the air a hundred meters above the ground.

The armor on her body was broken, revealing a little scenery, and blood was constantly flowing out of her body.

The surrounding black trees shone with a faint light, thirstily consuming her blood.

Kalinno's expression was very painful as the dragon energy was continuously absorbed.

The dragon blood in her body was constantly recovering vitality,

but once the vitality appeared, it would be immediately absorbed by the dead trees.

And under her, a hundred-meter-tall shadow gorilla was constantly adding some energy to her body.

The dragon descendant Kalinno was used by the gorillas as a perpetual motion machine to feed the trees.

She transformed energy and brought the trees back to life.

Kamino was living a life worse than death at this moment.

Even if someone stabbed Kalinno to death with a sword, Kalinno would only be grateful.

The shadow gorilla who was presiding over the ceremony also discovered the existence of the two transport ships. It turned its head with bloodshot eyes, full of hatred for them.

For such an existence, it was easy to judge from the breath of Rune that it was this group of people who killed their companions.

So the shadow gorilla was also extremely angry about the appearance of everyone.

Strangely, after discovering everyone.

The shadow gorilla did not rush up to avenge his companions immediately, but stayed by Kalinno's side, alert to the approach of Rune and others.

"It seems that Kalinno is more important than its companions in its mind." Henry whispered, "But is it too much for Kalinna to offer the whole tree alone? What effect can it have?"

Henry's doubts also filled the hearts of the crowd. It is completely disproportionate to rely on the energy of a dragon descendant to nourish such a huge dead tree.

But Rune can subtly perceive the current changes.

In his eyes, Kalinno's vitality is constantly absorbed and finally gathered at a certain point on the branch, where a little green seems to be gradually growing.

This made Rune think of the formation process of the Wanfa Forest before. The so-called energy and the so-called vitality are not important. The most important thing is the initial vitality, the one from zero to one.

And the shadow gorilla in front of him is tantamount to wanting to make this completely dead tree have the initial vitality through the continuous energy conversion in Kalinna's body.

The vitality of the trees is also the vitality of the shadow gorilla. Although it may not understand this, its instinctive desire has already followed the logic of alchemy.

Its thoughts are almost exactly the same as Constantine's.

In the first level, Constantine let Rune learn the spell of all living things,

and in this level, he wants Rune to learn the power of death,

which is also a life and a death!

The shadow gorilla is born with the breath of death, so it is the opposite of Rune and wants to gain the power of vitality.

The two have different paths and the same destination, and in the end, they are the balance and compromise between good and evil, life and death.

Seeing this step in front of him, Rune can be regarded as a complete understanding of the meaning of Constantine's two level designs.

So Rune and the shadow gorilla can be regarded as fellow travelers at this moment, but the road in front of them is cruel.

At this time, only one of Rune and the shadow gorilla can fully embark on this road.

The oppressive feeling brought by the hundred-meter-high shadow gorilla is not comparable to the previous one.

Everyone looked at this mountain-like creature, but they still didn't have the courage to take action.

Lun was alone, walked down the transport ship and walked towards the shadow gorilla silently.

The huge body contrast made people sweat for him, but his steps were very steady.

The shadow gorilla didn't react too much to Luen's arrival.

It just looked at Luen quietly until Luen walked less than a hundred meters in front of him.

A human and a dead creature, both of them had some strange feelings in their bodies at this moment.

The shadow gorilla's eyes were complicated, as if he wanted to kill Rune, but he was also full of hesitation.

They stared at each other, and Rune was ready to fight at any time.

But the shadow gorilla in front of him did not move. It stared at Rune as if it was thinking about something.

After a moment, it pointed to the green above its head, as if to express something.

Rune raised his eyebrows, a little unbelievable, "Are you asking me to pick this thing?"

The shadow gorilla nodded, then stretched out his hand and spread his palm.

Rune thought for a moment, and stepped on the palm of the shadow gorilla, and he was a little dazed.

The direction of this matter was completely beyond his expectations. The shadow gorilla lifted him up and reached the place where the green sprouted. Rune stretched out his finger and touched it lightly.

In an instant, the whole dead tree seemed to sense something, and all the black branches trembled.

The shadow gorilla was also extremely excited when he saw this.

In Rune's consciousness, he had completely entered another world.

In this dark world, the huge dead tree turned into a woman.

Behind her, thousands of black tree trunks were like pairs of black hands.

The dead tree looked down at the reeds, her eyes were sad and melancholy, and there seemed to be countless words hidden in them, but she did not speak.

She just gently touched Rune's forehead with her fingertips.

Rune suddenly felt cold all over.

The dead breath in his body spun wildly and condensed into shape in an instant.

Four black and gray alchemical arrays took shape in his body:

[Land of Scratching]

[All Living Things] and [Land of Scratching] were all formed, and the two completed a perfect fusion.

Two completely different breaths flowed in his body.

One gave life, and the other gave death.

This is the second element of Constantine's alchemy!

Rune clenched his palms and felt the power surging in his body.

He only needed to find one more element, and the super-level alchemy evolution would enable him to advance to Sequence 5!

After seeing Rune master the power of death, thousands of black hands behind the tree of death drowned him.

After a moment, Rune opened his eyes.

He looked at the tree and the gorilla in front of him again.

Thousands of lines were forming rapidly in his body.

This is the texture of the tree of death.

The texture is constructed in his body, like his second set of veins, increasing the speed and purity of his spiritual flow.

With the spiritual element transfer technique in the heart as the core, it extends to every part of the body.

"I understand what you mean."

"I will be back."

After Rune said two words, the tree shook its branches and the gorilla walked away with satisfaction.

What they reached was a contract.

In the future, Rune needs to come back here and use his vitality to save this tree that is trapped in death but longs to return to its original state, as well as this shadow gorilla that was born in death.

"Let's go." Rune turned around and called everyone, "It's time to leave."
