Killing the US fear starts from the fatal bend

Chapter 190 Divinity Acquisition and Harpy's Great Upgrade

In a remote corner of Derry Town, where the "Loser Club" meets, Mike Hanlon gathered his companions together.

Although they had the experience of fighting against Pennywise 27 years ago, today is different from the past. Pennywise, who has recovered from the extraordinary, cannot be dealt with simply by overcoming the fear in his heart. Three companions are already resisting died in the process, and now there are only 4 people left in their small group.

After everyone arrived, he simply said: "Pennywise looks very angry today. I guess he must have been frustrated somewhere. We want to pass this message out and tell everyone, don't be afraid, it doesn't matter. It’s not invincible. Deli Town has disappeared for so long, it’s impossible for the authorities to ignore it, and someone will definitely come to rescue us.”

Eddie, Rich and Beverly nodded silently.

After a long silence, Beverly suddenly asked, "Do we still have a chance?"

Mike was as firm as ever, "As long as we overcome our fear, we will be able to defeat Pennywise, believe me!"

Encouraged by his belief, several people raised their courage to fight again and nodded.

They cautiously opened the door, looked at the huge clown mask in the sky, and went out along the corner of the wall.
-
Waldburg.

In Luke's body, where no one can perceive, strange changes are happening subtly.

The divinity of "fear" was supported by sufficient power of faith, and became more and more full and round. Finally, under the continuous infusion of energy, it quietly split itself, turning from one strand into two strands.

The branches representing [Dread Crows] are also thriving, and the number of crows that can be summoned has exceeded the 100 mark, but after breaking through 200, if you want to increase the number again, you need to reach the order of [-] crows.

At present, although the emotion of fear far exceeds the level of 100 crows, it is about 130, but the total number of crows that Luke can transform is still only 100.

Next, after Luke completes the number of crows, Harpier will have another chance to upgrade.

More than an hour later, perhaps because the balloon clown did not appear again last night, the fear that Luke could absorb began to gradually decrease, and it became lower and lower.

At this time, it is no longer necessary for him to devote himself to coordination and cooperation, and the two strands of "fear" divinity can already absorb and accept these "stolen" powers of faith on their own.

Luke opened his eyes and said to the people waiting on the side: "It's time to start spreading the news that the 'Balloon' demon has been killed."

Residents of Phoenix City are far more accepting of supernatural elements than other cities in the Beacon Country. After the gossip spread, everyone naturally accepted the saying that there is a "Superman" maintaining the safety of the city, and their fears were greatly relieved.

It was night, and the influx of fear had dropped to a very low level, Luke stopped [blasphemy], and at the same time, Pennywise lost real-time sensing of Luke's position.

The balloon clown has been killed, and the panic has been sorted out. The killing of the clown has come to an end for the time being.

Uncle Wagner will take his parents back to Black Spindle Town tomorrow, and he also invited Luke to go with him.

Luke would have refused.

But Wagner said that this time he can take him to see the family's confinement prison, the kind that contaminates supernatural creatures.

Although it is a small prison, it is also worthless experience points.

Luke's current level is stuck at 13% of level 90. Although it doesn't look like there are ants crawling all over his body like when he got stuck at 98% one time, he is still a uncomfortable group and wants to upgrade quickly.

So when faced with his uncle's gracious invitation, he still agreed and decided that the four of them would go to Black Spindle Town together.

The ray of fear divinity obtained this time has brought a certain enhancement to the [Fear Fog] effect of [Dread Crow], but it is not particularly significant. It seems that the effect from 1 to 2 is far inferior to that from 0 to 1.

In addition, the acquisition of divinity brings 1 free attribute point.

At present, Luke's body strength is 15 points. Before the soul strength is 30 points, there is no need to pay special attention to the oppression of the body by the strong soul, so he added it to the soul strength as before, raising it to 24 points.

As for the increase in the number of [Dread Crows].

Luke enjoyed a VIP treatment this time, and he didn't need to send crows to seduce him. After he said his needs, the staff of the abnormal affairs handling brigade went directly to search in the forest.

The four or five people sent out were all capable of capturing, and they helped him capture the 30 crows he needed in half an hour.

Luke asked them to put the crows in a large airtight meditation room. After everyone went out, they closed the door and prepared to welcome the crows' transformation again.

The "Wanhua Mirror" came out through the body, and the crows flapped their wings and came out of the mirror world, huddled together in the meditation room.

The wild crow that had just been captured was screaming and screaming in fright, trying to escape from the confines of the cage, but it could only fly around in a limited space, hitting the barbed wire of the cage non-stop, and a lot of fluff and feathers fell in the air.

Luke manipulated the [Dread Crow] branch on the ability tree and began to transform.

A large amount of fear was transformed into some kind of special energy by the skill branch, and it was divided into thirty pipes, which were injected into the bodies of thirty crows.

The transformation process lasted 3 minutes.

The original sluggish crow regained its agility, its body grew a little bit, its feathers became more black and shiny, and the top of its head also grew a structure that was almost the same as that of its predecessors.

After the transformation was completed, under Luke's instruction, the crows fluttered their wings one after another, blurred and flew out of the cage, surrounding Harpier.

Next, is its upgrade.

The fear stored on the branches of the skills began to flow out in large quantities, and the energy that was originally accumulated enough to complete the transformation of more than 30 crows was quickly consumed, and it was only when there were about seven or eight crows left that they could barely stop.

At this moment, Harpier was completely enveloped by a thick layer of black light.

It itself was transformed from a crow, and after each upgrade, it became a huge, brand-new bird and beast, no smaller than the pterosaur in Jurassic World.

Judging from the size of the light sphere, it seems that this upgrade has not continued to expand in terms of body size.

Harpier's upgrade took much longer than the rest of the crows. It took nearly half an hour before the black ball of light disintegrated in all directions, revealing the ferocious beast inside.

It has an elegant and majestic figure, its whole body is as black as night, without any variegation, and every feather is as smooth as obsidian, exuding a strange shimmer.

The crown hairs surround its head, covering the bony crown structure, the wings are broad and strong, and the feathers are arranged in an orderly manner, forming a mysterious and strange pattern, which makes people feel fearful at first glance, as if Saw the natural enemy.

In addition to the change in appearance, the most important thing is the skill aspect.

In addition to the [Void], [Painful Torment], [Hoarse Scream], [Fear Fog] that all [Dread Crows] have, and the [Lord of Crows] that was unique to it before, Harpy, who has been upgraded again, has obtained Brand new skills——

[Dark Wind]: Harpy can summon a dark hurricane full of fear through the bony organ on the top of the head. The hurricane has strong corrosive power and can erode the soul and body of the target.If the target infected by the dark wind is not strong-willed, he will fall into endless fear and panic, and his mind will be severely hit.

(Each crow can flap its wings and join the Dark Wind together to increase the effect and power of the hurricane)

There is another group attack skill, and it seems that the effect can be linked with the previous one, but I don't know if it will conflict with [Fear Fog]. After all, there is a wind and a fog.

But the greater possibility is fusion. After all, they are not simple natural phenomena, and their energies are from the same source, and their effects complement each other.

Now with Harpy's ability, he can basically break away from Luke and fight against heroes at the hero level alone. With the help of a hundred crows, he can be considered relatively strong even at the hero level. That gear.

Except for the metamorphosis like Luke who mastered divinity ahead of time, and the peak hero level of Albert who specialized in the physical body a month ago, I feel that there are very few heroes of the hero level who can deal with Harpier's attack.

After admiring Harpier, who has become more and more in line with his own aesthetics and has greatly increased his style, Luke put all the crows in the mirror, everything is ready, and he just waits for the departure tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Mason and Lillian had already packed up and rested for a few days. They were full of energy, and the four of them set off together.

Luke originally planned to pick up the four of them and drive on Harpy.

However, with four people squeezed on Harpier's back and some luggage, it's not too much, but it's a bit crowded.

Second, when Wagner came here, he drove a favorite Chevrolet Corvette. He refused to let go of this car no matter what he said.

So in the end, everyone decided to drive to the clan land. After all, there are two powerful extraordinary beings, Luke and Wagner, so there is no need to worry about the fare on this road, even if it is full of demons.

If he did meet a demon, Luke would be happier.

I don’t have any experience in door-to-door delivery, so I’ll just drive out and look for it.

Thinking of this, he also gave up the idea of ​​flying directly there, and regarded this trip as a fun-filled family trip and an upgrade trip full of expectations.

Luke and the others stopped driving, and took Wagner's Chevrolet directly, and a group of four went to Black Spindle Town.

Speaking of the name of this town, there is still a long history.

On the way out, Wagner introduced Luke idly.

It is said that the source is the spindle that spins the thread of fate in the hands of a certain goddess. Because of the temptation of the evil god, the goddess fell, and the pure white spindle in her hand also turned black.

After that, the goddess was beheaded by an unknown existence, and the spindle in her hand fell to the world for some reason, and the place where it fell was Black Spindle Town.

Whether this rumor is true, Wagner would not deny it, but he told Luke mysteriously that the Asmo family does have a spindle artifact, which can greatly enhance the spell-casting effect of curse-like abilities.

Curse spells Luke is not interested, but listen to him, goddess of fate, black spindle.Luke inexplicably thought of his "Wanhua Mirror".

After all, they are all related to fate, maybe the same goddess used them.

The vehicle drove out of Phoenix City and passed Strait Farm, which was the place where the werewolves gathered. Now it seems that it is completely deserted, the houses are crumbling, and the farmland is barren and overgrown with weeds. It looks more like a monster than when it was thriving before. gathering place.

Luke also let a crow go in and circle around with great interest, and there was nothing inside, even the traces of his own battles had been cleaned up.

As the vehicle moved forward quickly, a few people left the suburbs of the city and came to the interstate highway in Yimapingchuan.

The vehicle gradually drove westward, and after a few hours, passing through the lush jungle, the greenery gradually diminished, and a large desert began to appear, and the undulating sand dunes on the horizon rushed towards us like waves.

The yellow sand covers the ground, stretching as far as the eye can see. Occasionally, a few desert plants can be seen growing tenaciously on the sand dunes, adding a touch of vitality to this desolate area.

At first glance, this scene has a somewhat vast and desolate beauty, but after watching it for almost an hour, anyone will find it annoying.

Luke boredly began to observe the vision of the crows. They fly in the sky and can see more things, which is much better than the boring vision in the cab.

No, here comes the fun.

In Harpier's view, on the desert far away from the interstate highway, a tent area that looks like a temporary military camp is dotted across the desert, but there is no one in that military camp now, at least the tents No outside.

On a barren hill not far away, a few American soldiers were suspiciously guarding with their guns, as if they had encountered some terrifying enemy.

Harpy continued to observe.

Hmm. I met an enemy.

It keenly discovered several corpses lying in different places on the mountain. These corpses died in different ways, but overall, they were basically injured by cold weapons, and the wounds were mainly piercing, cutting, and felling.

Of course, two fell to their deaths.

Soon, the enemies of the soldiers also appeared in Harpyier's eyes.

Although they were carefully covered by the terrain and mountains, and were not spotted by the soldiers, Harpier had a clear view of the sky, and soon found the movements of two or three freaks.

These eccentrics have a common characteristic, that is, they are ugly, and the degree of ugliness is about the same as that of Luke's first real enemy, the mountain ogre.

Of course, they are not ugly cookie cutter.

In addition to the ubiquitous sharp and jagged teeth, each monster has its own characteristics.

One was wearing tattered overalls, with some hair on the top of his head, but it was sparse and yellow, and he couldn't even comb the middle part. His forehead was as big as a thunderbolt, and the skin on his face was mutated and raised, and there were wrinkles everywhere.

One looks a bit like a normal human being, except for a horn-like protrusion growing out of the left forehead, which keeps overflowing thick water and dirty blood.

On the top of the mountain, there is another one that is covered in khaki, half of its body is covered with stone-like pustules and growths. Even Harpy almost made a mistake when he moved.

Luke patted Wagner on the shoulder and said, "Uncle, stop for a while. There are a few soldiers trapped on the mountain. I'll go and have a look."

Wagner knew that there were his scouts in the sky, so he stopped the car slowly and asked, "Do you need help?"

"No, it's trivial."

While speaking, Luke released more crows, [Shape-Shaping] and left.
