Zerg in the crystal wall system world

Chapter 223 Decisive
Witchcraft, a school of magic that is as famous as magic.

And magic relies on understanding the nature of elements, focusing on the accumulation of knowledge and experience, and constructing magic in the form of magic lines and magic circles.

Witchcraft pays more attention to communication with the superconscious body of the world, focuses on talent and inspiration, and interferes with reality through rituals, spells, and sacrificial dances.

Strictly classified, such things as astral projection rituals, blood exchange rituals, and soul contracts, which are still difficult for the swarm to analyze, are actually a kind of witchcraft.

It is even said that in the chaotic era before the stars were born, wizards were extraordinary beings who were closer to gods than mages.

But today, this profession has lived up to its original glory.

Even if there is still a demon with a full set of inheritance, if he wants to truly perform some powerful witchcraft, he needs to sacrifice the soul through the blood sacrifice first to erase the starlight's anchor to the physical rules...

However, even so, witchcraft still has this irreplaceable advantage

For example, the highly chaotic nature of witchcraft allows wizards to forcibly perform witchcraft only through the symbolic meaning of materials without seeking a deep understanding.

Just like now, when the succubus doesn't know what psionic energy is, and doesn't know anything about the stealer's body structure and talent mechanism

She can use the Stealer as the core of the sacrifice to open a large gate of hell that would have required tens of thousands of specially processed soul sacrifices—this is why she is so happy when she catches the Stealer.

Of course, even if there are stealers who greatly reduce the ritual requirements, some tortured souls are still required to sacrifice.

However, the number has dropped to only a few dozen. For a highly skilled succubus, it only takes one night to confuse the gangsters in the slums.

And while she was carefully preparing for the ceremony,

The swarm is also moving silently.

In the abyss of infection in every corner of the city, dusty induced proteins were released, and those viruses in the incubation period broke out completely...

Jack is a citizen of the Empire in the world of Tark 925, "Plenty City".

With his own wife and children, he wakes up every day in praise of the emperor, and lives a nine-to-nine life, looking ordinary.

However, he is not actually a native "imperial man".

Instead, when the imperial warriors were on an expedition to an ignorant world, they rescued the serfs.

By the way, the reason why the "ignorant king" was crusaded was not because of such silly reasons as raising slaves or not becoming a king, but because that guy had the audacity to claim that he was the "Guardian of Humanity" when he ascended the throne. This great title that only an emperor deserves...

Of course, whatever the reason, the Imperial warriors ultimately gave Jack a better life.

Jack has a heartfelt gratitude to the empire.

It was in this emotional trend that Jack became a member of the Sheriff's Office.

But it's just an assistant, not a formal security officer. In analogy, it's a bit like an "auxiliary policeman", responsible for traffic command, cleaning up the scene, and registering documents...

Moreover, because of the cumbersome and complicated imperial code, and the "chanting" sentence pattern that must be mastered when praising the emperor.

Unless he can make military achievements such as "killing the traitor", he will probably not be able to pass the assessment in his entire life and become a security officer with a stamp.

But Jack was still very satisfied.

At least, life is now more secure than ever.

Just like now, even though he had a nightmare last night, he woke up heavy and cold in the morning.He had obvious cold symptoms, but he still didn't panic at all.

You know, if he was still a serf, a disease would mean serious damage to his vitality, or even death.

But in Empire.He only needs to go to the pharmacy downstairs to buy some medicine, and he can continue to work without any worries. Isn't this a blessing?

In front of the city security station, he ran into Sheriff Tibery, who finished his night patrol and came here to clock in and store his equipment.

"Are you okay? Jack." The sheriff greeted, "Your face is not very pretty."

"Just a common cold, Lord Tibery... I mean Sheriff Tibery."

"It seems that you really have a serious cold." Tibery laughed, "I haven't heard you call me that in ten years."

Jack was also embarrassed: "Sorry, sir, I'm really not sober."

"Take a few days off if you feel uncomfortable, your body is important."

"Thank you for your kindness, I don't have any problem." Jack cheered up. During the period of great review, he would not ask for leave if he could not ask for it...

Tibery did not respond for the time being, he had already arrived at the gate of the security office, and solemnly recited softly to the engraved emperor's icon: "Praise the Immortal Emperor."

Three green lights are on.

Loyalty, humanity, personal signs... all the verifications achieved by the high-level machine soul twisting have passed.

Tibery walked into the Sheriff's Office.

Jack followed.

It is also a heartfelt chant: "May the emperor be eternal!"

He was born as a serf with little education. The reason why he was able to join the security station was because he was sincerely grateful to the empire and the emperor.

However, when Jack tried to step into the security station.

A shriek of alarm sounded from above the icon.

A yellow warning light comes on: that means he's not pure-blooded.

The purple alarm light is on: means his loyalty to the emperor is not pure.

Only the red light representing personal identity did not turn off, which means that he is still Jack...

Even though he was dizzy, Jack was still stunned by the siren.

I... am not a human anymore?

No, the more important thing is... Are you disloyal? ! !

A police gas bolt crossbow was aimed at Jack's head.

The sheriff, who was still caring tenderly for his subordinates just now, did not have a trace of emotion in his eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.

He was fortunate to have seen the magistrate in real battle. When facing thugs and demons, he used such an indifferent and powerful posture, standing in front of the people like a mountain, and crushing all enemies.

But at this moment, when he was facing it, he felt the fear from the bottom of his heart.

"Master...sir...master...I'm not, I don't..."

Tibery looked at Jack, but didn't pull the trigger immediately.

Instead, he ordered coldly: "Put yourself in shackles and go to interrogation..."

Before the words fell, harsh sirens suddenly rang throughout the city.

Relying on the rhythm of the alarm, Tibery immediately discerned that this was a warning alarm for a large-scale demon invasion.

There is no time to detain and examine a suspicious person.

boom--

Tibery shot without hesitation.

The crossbow bolt pierced into the skull, and the brains splattered instantly.

Jack fell flat on the ground.

Tibery didn't stop, and stepped forward to shoot two more crossbow arrows.

One shot broke Jack's heart, and the other shot Jack's spine.

Then, he took out the communicator, began to summon his subordinates, and contacted his superior...
