The sun is high

The process for gaining control of the Tricolor Brotherhood is ridiculously simple.

Facing this rabble, Shuge didn't even need to make a speech or make any kind of promise. He just relied on Bolvar's introduction and guarantee, as well as the terrifying demonstration he held after entering the venue. They have successfully subdued these thugs carrying various weapons.

In fact, after these brotherhood members discovered that Shuge and Bolva were actually two mages above the stream level, they completely gave up the idea of ​​opposing them.

Whatever his past identity, Shug Ernst is now a terrifying and murderous spellcaster.

Moreover, the magic he uses perfectly fits the most evil and terrifying fantasies that ordinary people have about magic.

In fact, Shuge even considered summoning a tide of rats to strengthen his control over the members of the Three Color Brotherhood. However, considering that the legend about rats eating people had appeared in Salem City before, in order to avoid letting Bolvar After waiting for the members of the association to make unnecessary speculations, Shuge finally chose to restrain himself.

When Bolva solemnly prepared a clean and tidy solemn conference room and invited Shuge and a group of Black Sun Society members to enter, Shuge even wanted to laugh.

The scene before me was too absurd.

Even if Herbert, Kezlov and others scratched their heads, they would never have imagined that an enemy who had openly opposed the Black Sun Society and even killed several important members with his own hands would actually become this city through a series of operations. The temporary association leader in Salem City.

Yes, this is the name that Bolva and other association members temporarily gave Xiuge after careful consideration.

They believe that it is no longer appropriate to continue to call Xiuge by his original name. In the eyes of these loyal believers, this kind of name is tantamount to trampling on the authority and miracles of the ancient gods. When they came from Bolva After hearing Xiuge's purpose of coming here, he showed extraordinary enthusiasm.

In their view, this young man who has transcended mortals and possesses real divine gifts is the only leader who can lead them towards reality and the faith they dream of.

Although the fanatical performance of these association members made Xiuge feel extremely uncomfortable, for the sake of his next goal, he still accepted the "support" and "following" of these people.

And from the hands of these people, Xiuge finally obtained the "medicine" taken by the Iris guard before.

However, calling this thing a "drug" is really a stretch.

Because it looks like a "black mud ball" as big as three fingers. Under the light, they show a texture very similar to that of the descendants of An Abyss, except that they are not picked from the descendants of An Abyss. The living parts of the body, because Xiuge has no way to feel the breath of life from the inside of these "medicines".

After Xiuge tried to remove the magic film wrapped around the medicine, he clearly felt a wave of power closely related to the Dark Abyss Palace.

However, the Messengers in the Mirror and the Palace Hounds, who are members of the Dark Abyss Palace Families, are not very interested in this. They simply paid attention to it for two seconds, and then converged their gazes. Obviously, in their eyes, The actual value of this thing is not as good as a group of Dark Abyss descendants that can directly draw power.

The members of the association looked at Shuge's movements uneasily, and then Bolva asked: "Leader, is there... something wrong with it?"

"To be precise, there is a big problem."

Shuge threw the pitch-black sphere back to the table. He leaned on the seat and said to the members of the association in front of him: "The association's main purpose in making them is to prevent the previous sacrificial ceremony from causing too much damage. Omissions, they become an important remedy if that happens..."

Relying on the memories he had and some half-truths and half-false information, Shuge once again "fooled" these guys who seemed to have absolute trust in him: "Unfortunately, based only on the prophecies and previous research, the association has no idea about the Sons of the Abyss." Understanding is still too limited.”

He pointed at the black ball spinning on the table and glanced at everyone present: "Taking it will allow you to turn into incomplete children of the abyss while retaining your original memory and wisdom, but this will It does not mean that you can become the only will to control that huge group... The association used to regard the Children of the Abyss too simply, which is the dereliction of duty of the Dark Abyss History Society."

Xiuge's words were very serious, and it could even be said that he did not give face to the Black Sun Society and the Dark Abyss History Society. However, the more he said this, the more convinced Bolva and others became.

In their eyes, even if Huge Ernst has not yet become the complete only son of the abyss in the prophecy, he is not far away. At least he has returned here now and has been "recognized" by the association. For For them who are now unable to communicate with the outside world at all, Xiuge's speech and judgment are a manifestation of confidence and authority.

"So...what should we do?"

Shuge frowned and said: "Give them to me, maybe I can find some ways to improve it... Of course, I don't want to use them. As I said before, I don't want additional sacrifices. In my opinion that is unnecessary and makes no sense.”

Shuge underestimated the lethality of these words to the members of the Black Sun Society.

In fact, no matter how much they despise the civilizations, countries, and creatures that rule Van En in their hearts, and how much they consider themselves followers of the ancient gods, they are still human beings, and therefore they also have the emotions and desires that humans have. And fear.

And these words of Xiuge accurately hit these weaknesses of theirs.

With great expectations and high trust in Shuge, these words with some minor loopholes became the magic potion that gave them motivation and encouragement, and the words that flashed through Shuge's body and eyes in due course The messenger in the mirror, Misty, made them believe that the young leader in front of them was not only the messenger of the association, but also a spokesperson sent by the Dark Abyss Palace to present-day Van En.

Even a determined old fox like Bolva firmly believes in this matter.

After all, Xiuge's performance was extremely perfect and natural from beginning to end. Even if there were some omissions in his words, there was no way to fake the magical aura and power that belonged to the Dark Abyss Palace. Bolvar I also don’t believe that there are people besides the Black Sun Society who can understand and control this power.

So everything fell into place.

After getting Shuge's permission, Bolva immediately showed off his thunderous skills. In just a few hours, this ruthless magician who had already established considerable prestige within the Three Color Brotherhood was... He easily "dealt with" the president of the Tricolor Brotherhood, and directly "liquidated" those who were still loyal to the former president in front of the rest of the brotherhood members. While executing these processes, Shuge Didn't show up.

But through the smell of blood floating along the corridor of this building, Xiuge also knew that the scene would not be pretty.

Shuge's attitude towards the Three Color Brotherhood and its members is very clear.

If in the past, in the city of Salem, within this extremely complex organization, there were still some Delan youths with passionate ideas like Putlin, as well as thieves and stalkers who followed the Rogue Creed and strictly adhered to the bottom line, then now The tricolor fraternity…

It has neither "three colors" nor many "brothers". It is purely a gathering.

A gathering of bandits with survival as their basic goal, robbing other survivors as their means, and destroying the remaining order in Salem City as their invisible goal.

For such a group of people, Xiuge has no sympathy at all. He is not in the mood to understand everyone's past and thoughts, nor does he want to waste too much time and thought on it. In his eyes, those huge numbers The armed bandits, like the members of the Black Sun Society who are responsible for leading them, are a group of unstable factors that need to be dealt with sooner or later.

Xiuge was sitting alone in the previous room. The mage's hand shimmering with dark mist held up one of the black round "pills" for him. The thick mist of the messenger in the mirror gradually disappeared from the fingers of the mage's hand. It flowed out and turned into countless tiny tentacles that pierced into the sphere that exuded a strange luster.

At this moment, the sphere seemed to be "activated".

At the moment when Shuge's active magic power was injected into it, this sphere that looked like the remains of An Abyss descendant was given life force, as if it had been in a complete sleep before. In just a moment, the black sphere began to twist. It moves, but it has never been able to break through the blockade of repair power, and can only barely change its shape under the hold of the mage's hand.

As this twisting progressed, some dark green light and shadow began to appear inside it - it looked exactly like the descendants of An Yuan.

"What is this? A mutilated embryo of a descendant of Dark Abyss? A defective product of a defective product?"

Xiuge frowned, he was really not sure about the nature of this thing.

But considering that the Black Sun Society has indeed mastered the method of summoning and creating the descendants of Dark Abyss, this possibility still exists.

At this moment, an extremely strange magic wave came over.

Xiuge's eyes widened in surprise. He clearly felt that as he continued to maintain the input of dark abyss magic power, the dark ball grasped by the mage's hand became more active, and then, a similar The magical connection between the caster and the summoned object slowly formed between him and the black ball.

And the next moment, a subtle fluctuation was slowly transmitted along the magical connection between the two. It was not language, nor was it any particularly specific information, but a simple "emotion" transmission.

Under the stimulation of Shuge's magical power, this incomplete embryo successfully regained its vitality.

It was born, and vaguely seemed to regard Shuge as its creator or source of power.

Feeling the vague and strange magical connection, Xiuge boldly removed the mage's hand and used his own palm to catch the twisting black ball.

The connection between the two parties became closer, and the details about this dark abyss embryo finally appeared in Shuge's spiritual world.

He clearly sensed that this group of embryos was more primitive than the descendants of the Dark Abyss. They were very weak and did not have the instinct to devour or learn. Even the changelings were more dangerous than them.

Shuge looked at this group of black shadows that seemed to regard him as the "subject" or "parent" and tried to crawl slowly in his palm to express intimacy, and thought seriously.

"Perhaps this is why the association distributes them to members as medicine...because they are simply a ball of pure power and do not have the strong instincts and basic desires of the descendants of An Yuan. Therefore, they can transform the human body. At the same time, the original wisdom and memory are retained.”

At this time, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Shuge did not hide what he was doing, but said something casually, so Bolva pushed the door open and entered. He saw the dark abyss embryo crawling slowly in Shuge's palm at a glance, which made him He was shocked. After all, according to his experience, this kind of thing would always treat its prey equally. This was indeed the first time he had seen such a "close contact" with them.

But when it comes to Xiuge, this strange scene seems very reasonable.

Being able to make these dangerous beings so obedient, and even take the initiative to get close to them, can reveal Xiuge's true identity.

"Leader... the matters within the Brotherhood have been dealt with. According to your instructions, they will reduce the frequency of going out to obtain supplies in the near future, and will not disturb other people in Salem City."

"That's good, Belva."

Xiuge nodded approvingly: "Don't let those children of the abyss who are addicted to primitive desires continue to devour them. They have already devoured too many fools and accumulated too much wrong knowledge and thoughts... If this continues, It’s not good for our plan, after all, what we long for is the messenger who can welcome the black sun, not the beast that only knows how to devour.”

"You're right."

Bolva nodded with conviction: "We have never thought about this kind of thing in the past. If you hadn't rushed back to Salem City in time, I'm afraid we would have made the same mistake again and again."

"I said, there is no need to be ashamed of this. You have done a good job... Instead of wasting time on this, it is better to prepare for the next thing."

Shuge smiled, and then he asked: "I told you before, I am planning to visit the mages of the Legal Committee... Bolva, you just graduated from the Legal Committee branch not long ago. If you leave here, tell me what the situation was like there before you left."
