Our family is in decline

But it may be because [Flesh and Flesh Casting] was not completely successful.

It can change, but only a little bit, not on a large scale.

For example, he can make the knuckles of his fingers protrude and the tips resemble sharp claws, but he cannot make the sharp edges on his arms turn into long knives. The ultimate deformation is to elongate it slightly.

When Lance was promoted to [Champion], he already felt that the human body has limits, which is why [Master] is the limit for most humans.

If you want to step into the [Championship], you must use external forces to surpass human limits.

The Wolf Warriors relied on the power of the wilderness spirit of the tribe, Alhazred was the power of the evil god in the yellow sand temple, and even Lance relied on the panel to break through.

At this time, they are actually somewhat different from ordinary humans. They have some inhuman extraordinary power, and I am afraid that this is the source of the so-called "extraordinary bloodline".

There are definitely few champion-level experts, but they have definitely accumulated a lot in the long history, and the power they left behind is hidden in their bloodline.

According to the reproduction of human beings, after such a long time, I am afraid that everyone now has some traces of it. The difference is just the concentration and whether it shows up.

This is why after entering the championship, Lance felt that the power brought by the blessing began to become weaker and weaker, and it was difficult to even feel the improvement.

But that changed dramatically tonight.

Lance didn't feel much about it when using it as a single piece of equipment. It wasn't until he put on the full set of equipment that he realized that it would bring more than just improvements in defense and resistance to the user.

There are also very terrifying bonuses, and they are all-round.

Strength, reaction speed, body control...

And after wearing it, it doesn't feel like the empty can texture of ordinary armor, but like a layer of close-fitting exoskeleton, which allows people to feel the strange feedback from the outside world through the armor, and even to exaggerate, it is part of the body.

The reason why insects can show strength that exceeds several times their body weight is because of their unique body structure and their exoskeleton as a support for the burst of muscle power.

It is precisely with the support of the armor that Lance's muscles can be utilized to a higher extent. Under the exaggerated basic strength, any improvement is huge.

It can make Lance's current [Champion] physique feel greatly improved. You can imagine the effect. The performance just now has already demonstrated.

The cultists were dealt with in a brutal manner, even the flesh and blood monsters transformed from the Ascension Seeds were killed.

But what is even more special is that after wearing the limp helmet, it seems that you are really observing the world from the perspective of the void with the eyeballs on the helmet.

Moreover, the field of vision is wider than that of human beings, and can even give him a 360-degree sense of no blind spots.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, [Void Insight] improves the user's senses so that all existences are invisible, just like the marauder who was hiding in the distance was discovered by him early on, but he only dealt with it slowly in the end. .

And that's only part of it.

[Fear Halo]: It comes from the innate ability of the limp. All living beings that glimpse his existence must be judged. The closer the distance, the stronger the effect of the halo.

Just like when they saw the limp for the first time, if they could hold on, they would just add a little more pressure. As for if they couldn't hold on... the plunderer who was scared to death just now had already told him the answer.

[Void Walk]: Incorporates the power of the limp, allowing the user to walk through the void.

A simple understanding is a short-distance teleportation, only within the distance as far as the eye can see, and a full set of armor must be equipped.

Just like he flashed in front of the cunning fox just now, and the sudden appearance scared the last robber to death.

This was just for a try, but the load on his body was greater than that of killing the flesh and blood monster just now, as can be seen from the strange look on his face after taking off the helmet.

Even with the protection of armor, it is still too difficult to travel through the void with flesh and blood.

Armor and amplification can only be regarded as the basic functions of an extraordinary power armor.

The trait of [Activated Armor] is obviously the effect brought by [Flesh and Flesh Casting].

It goes without saying that the three traits [Void Insight], [Fear Aura], and [Void Walking] come from the power of the limp.

This is all related to the raw materials for casting armor, which is in line with basic logic.

It can be said that if there were no accidents at the beginning, then this should be the limit of armor made from the flesh and blood of a limp.

But it is clear that surprise is a frequent visitor to reality.

The meteorites mixed with it contaminate the casting process with the strange power of alien space.

Although it was finally suppressed by the power of [Sacrifice], the power from an unnameable mysterious existence joined in, which also brought more variables to the armor.

[The power of the evil god] is manifested by the unquenchable black flames ignited by the armor.

As for why it was named this, it was because Lance didn’t know what it should be called.

What he probably learned was that the black flames that ignited on the limp man's body after he was hit, and the burning wounds in Alhazred's hands that festered, were all the price of being exposed to the power of the evil god.

As for the effect, in addition to the cool black flame special effects, it also causes more damage when attacking.

To put it simply, the black flames contaminate the enemy and cause burning, or erosion would be more accurate.

But strength comes at a price, and wearing this armor requires more than just a set of clothes.

This thing uses the ancestor's technology, and its activation means that this thing is always greedy for flesh and blood.

This situation can only be alleviated by using the enemy's flesh and blood. If it is not full, it will devour the user's flesh and blood.

Under certain circumstances, it also drives the user to continuously kill and then devour.

But if you think that the price ends like this, then you are underestimating the incredible extent of the term "extraordinary" in this world.

In addition to the corrosion of flesh and blood, as long as you wear it, you will be subject to the corruption of the black flame, that is, the power of the evil god.

Simply put, this armor will devour the user's flesh and blood, and the black flames will corrupt the user's soul.

When he took off his helmet just now, Lance's face was almost disfigured, and his skin seemed to be torn. You know, he was rarely injured.

This is only slightly eroded, as it is fed with the flesh of marauders and cultists.

The powerful power has unnatural side effects, which is in line with Lance's understanding of extraordinary power. The greater the power of this thing, the more evil it is.

[Flesh and Flesh Reconstruction] heals scars, and [Asylum] is immune to corruption. I am afraid there is no other person in this world who can use this armor except Lance.

Such a disgusting price reminded him of the evil god that had haunted Alhazred for many years.

Compared to a real pair of extraordinary armor, this armor is more like a projection from the void and another world, which can be seen from the weird way of wearing it.

It cannot be regarded as wearing, but it is more appropriate to describe it as "summoning" or "transformation".

And that ring is just a key? container? Or the medium?

Lance didn't want to pursue this boring definition. He only knew that black flames would appear when they passed through the armor.

But even though it is so convenient, Lance is not willing to use it casually. He treats it more as a trump card that can be used at critical moments.

Even he cannot bear the price of this thing every time.

Lance glanced down and saw that the flesh and blood filling the holes in the armor was disappearing. Once it completely disappeared, the cost of maintaining the armor would be his own flesh and blood.

It was originally just a test, but now that I have a rough understanding of it, there is no need to continue to maintain it.

When the black flames exploded from his body and then dissipated, what appeared under the blazing firelight was scarred skin, as if it had been eaten away by something.

But it was covered with new skin in an instant, but this scene was a bit weird.

But when Lance stood there naked, the situation became even more outrageous.

"Hey!" Lance yelled, then quickly put on his clothes.

Not wearing clothes after a war, this kind of situation can only happen in some special places, not here anyway

That's why Lance knew he absolutely didn't want to use it.

When Lance came back to his senses and looked at the town that had fallen into hell around him, his expression was completely gone.

This is the reason why he did not rush to regain Hamlet. It has been chaotic and disordered for so many years. Who knows how many followers the Ascension Sect has developed.

Among the people you meet, who can tell whether they are cultists or ordinary people~

Lance did not leave directly, but collected the corpses in the town. No matter how small the mosquito meat was, it would not be cheap for the ancestor. With him here tonight, the old man would not even think about having a late-night snack.

Walking into the simple house casually, Lance's eyes fell on the messy scene.

A disheveled woman's body was bent as if she was holding something, and even death could not let her go.

Out of curiosity, Lance moved forward and separated it, only to find that it was a child no more than three or four years old.

This scene couldn't help but make him look back at the mother solemnly. There were countless bite wounds on her body, her flesh and blood were torn off, and her body was soaked in blood, but the child in her arms was not bitten. trace.

But there is no doubt that there is no one left alive in the town.

If I come faster, will they...

Lance pursed his lips. Even the battle just now and the backlash from the armor could not make Lance show such a solemn expression.

The Ascension Sect knows that it cannot be seen in the light. Before this, it was still a bit of a show-off, and it was not clearly revealed. It was more about developing followers in private and gathering secretly.

Of course, the bigger reason is that the church still has a certain degree of control over this power vacuum area.

The ancestor was afraid of attracting the attention of the church.

But it is undeniable that there is still a certain proportion of normal people in these towns protected by the church.

By shrinking his own strategy, he can naturally avoid the endless pull with the Ascension Sect and avoid contact with the church.

But does that mean we have given up on these ordinary people?

Regarding this issue, Lance can naturally use "necessary sacrifice" to convince himself.

Moreover, their taxes are not handed over to themselves, and there is no need for them to bear this responsibility.

But he knows that he has failed in his duty as Hamlet's lord.

He did give up, or to put it more clearly, he avoided this part of the responsibility without even trying.

Although he did not kill the people in the small town, from a macro level, he was the one who pushed these ordinary people to hell.

Because he is now the lord, everything on this land can be attributed to him.

This is the inevitable responsibility that comes with identity.

But now it was almost suffocating him, and he didn't feel this way even when he was facing the limp person.

He just stood there blankly, his eyes resting on the corpse.

Lance knows that he is not a good leader. He is just an ordinary person lost in this desperate world. What he can do is to do what he is doing now. Who knows the rest~

Suddenly he took a long breath, raised his hand to sacrifice all the corpses in the room, and then walked into the next room without looking back...

The flames did not engulf the town out of control. When the ignited houses turned into ashes and collapsed, the town fell into complete silence.

As time went by, a bright light gradually appeared over there.

The morning light casts golden light on the heavy wheat ears on the fields outside the town, swaying with the gentle breeze. This year is destined to be a bumper harvest season.

No matter what happens, the night will end and the sun will rise.

…………

"Isn't the lord awake yet?"

Last night, the army and the police were dispatched to suppress the refugees, and then they urgently processed and resettled the refugees overnight. However, there was a lot of noise, and Greendale was a little curious about what was going on here.

"The lord hasn't come back yet."

Susan also looked helpless when faced with Greendale's words, so she had to add, "My lord suddenly went out last night and hasn't come back yet."

Greendale's expression was a little subtle when she heard this. She was not worried about Lance's safety. No one could threaten him.

But he just led the team back from the beast's cave yesterday, couldn't he take a break?

"Can't he have a good rest?" Greendale looked helpless.

What could Susan say? She only saw that Hamlet's prosperity was based on the lord's hard work.

"Did you know? My lord brought three women back last night. Although two of them are refugees, they are quite good-looking..."

Lance's absence did not prevent the two from chatting. Gossip is human nature and there is no way to stop it.

Greendale was a little curious when she heard this. Will the lord bring a woman back for no reason?

And there are only three in one area?

She was about to gossip, but was interrupted by a voice.

"What are we talking about so early in the morning?"

I can only say what is the scariest thing when gossiping?

That's definitely the protagonist you are gossiping about suddenly appearing behind you.

What's even scarier is that the protagonist heard something he shouldn't have heard.

The familiar voice immediately stirred up Greendale. Her face was not as calm as before, but rather pale, and her lips even trembled slightly. This sound almost made her scream out of her soul.
