Augustine frowned, carefully controlling the spell with both hands, and carefully carved the lines of the cone-shaped magic circle. No matter how thick the fog around him was, he looked as if he hadn't noticed it.
It seemed that he had sensed the wave that the circle was about to complete, and the fog that had been floating around began to drift slowly, and the invisible force actually made all the fog in this area spin up—and Augustine, who was in the center, focused on turning the last few lines After the drawing was completed, the magic circle was lifted up slowly to the top of the forest with mana.
"it's over."
The purple mist rotated faster and faster, and as Augustine raised his finger, the mist that was close to the ground was suddenly rolled up by a suction force, and hit the black cone-shaped magic circle impartially.
"Om..."
A certain kind of fluctuation began to spread to the surroundings. Obviously, the magic circle was accurate and the activation was successful!
Augustine's face was happy, but before he could be happy, his body shook, and he took two steps back. In his perception, his avatar had disappeared, and the power lost at this moment made Augustine's appearance age at a speed visible to the naked eye. go down.
The skin on his raised fingers loosened, and his back wasn't as straight as before. But the message sent by the avatar did not change his expression in the slightest.
On the contrary, Augustine raised the corner of his mouth, raised his hand, and gritted his teeth to gather more purple mist towards the magic circle.
"Finally caught all the fish that should be caught..."
He looked at the thick purple smoke, but his mood was incomparably happy - after he used "Devil Summon" at the risk of backlash, he already realized that tiefling's position might be a trap. Therefore, the "true body" did not jump into the pit at all, but came to the source of the detected "devil breath" first, and completely completed the magic circle!
At this moment, Augustine is very grateful that he took this risky move, otherwise he would not be able to find this place shrouded in a special enchantment.
This area shrouded in purple mist is just east of the Tasman, but it has not been discovered by him for hundreds of years. Because the pervasive "demonic breath" was shrouded by the barrier, for countless years! The accumulation even made it condense into a purple mist. Augustine saw the skeletons of many "alien species" here, and it seems that the earliest "alien species" should have been influenced by this.
All efforts paid off, and no one could now prevent Augustine from completing the final step of his great plan.
"The devil's door...opens."
The obscure incantation seemed to come from the abyss, and as Augustine chanted, it absorbed the last trace of mist!
It was at this moment that Augustine realized... the mountain under his feet did not seem to be pure earth and rock. After the fog cleared and the scenery became clear, he looked down from the surrounding symmetrically raised mountains, and suddenly realized... This should be the remains of some kind of giant creature.
As for himself, he stood on the head of the remains.
Where did the creature with a body width of 100 meters come from? As soon as this question popped up in Augustine's mind, he realized that the answer was right in front of him—he raised his head, and the cone-shaped magic circle had been fully filled with mist, exuding a glistening luster.
"Kara!"
It was as if the sound of lightning hitting the ground suddenly exploded, and the stones that made up the magic circle suddenly shattered from the center. Instead of dispersing, the flying fragments began to collapse toward the center—in just a few seconds, the entire magic circle collapsed into a tiny sphere that was hard to distinguish with the naked eye...
In just three seconds, with a terrifying aura of coercion, the black sphere suddenly began to expand, and its volume instantly increased by tens of thousands of times, becoming a huge black ball with a diameter of more than two meters!
"boom!"
The majestic demonic aura suddenly spread, and swept out with purple flames in all directions!
And the always black sphere is like a glass ball, reflecting the scenery inside the "gate" - another plane burning with endless purple fire.
So far, Augustine's spellcasting has been completely over. He has created this portal circle according to the steps of the black tome. Although it is only the most basic "low-level portal", it has extremely important significance to Augustine and even the entire Tasman undead...
How did the undead come about
Why do the undead need the power of the undead
What is the power of the dead
These questions were the answers that Augustine had been pursuing for countless years but could not get. It was not until he got the book that he finally had the real goal to pursue. It is also through this book written in the language of demons that he understands what "demons" are, and what they have brought to this world...
"So... it's time for you to make good on your promise."
The old-faced Augustine now looks stooped. Violent purple flames spread outward from the "Devil's Gate", but they couldn't hurt him at all, but the lonely figure was like a small boat in the raging fire, extremely small.
Finally, the surrounding flames began to shrink, and the shaking portal began to show new changes—a purple light suddenly shot out, heading straight for Augustine!
He stood where he was and did not dodge. When he was illuminated by the light, Augustine felt a mighty force suddenly pouring into his body!
Power... even more power!
His withered body was transformed in an instant. Not only did his skinny muscles swell, but purple spiral runes emerged. Horrible bone spurs protruded from the joints of his arms, and his body began to grow taller and elongated. , and a long horn slowly protruded from the top of the head...
Augustine closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the original white light in his pupils had been replaced by burning purple flames.
Augustine, whose strength had been greatly reduced due to the successive destruction of two avatars, has returned to the peak at this moment, and has even gone one step further, touching the threshold of truly belonging to a "half god"!
This is the purpose of his research on demons: the strength of the undead rises too slowly, and the limit is often fixed according to the body of the "life". Only by seeking fusion can we break through this layer of confinement.
Otherwise, waiting for the undead will only decay and rot!
He took a deep breath and looked down at his hands.
The slender fingers clenched suddenly, and the burning flames all around exploded!
With a wave of his hand, the scorched ground covered by sand and fallen leaves was instantly blown away by flames, revealing a corner of the huge white bone below.
"A mere undead can't become the overlord of the mainland... that's the only way, and it must be like this..."
He turned to stare at the spherical "Devil's Gate", and immediately sensed that in another plane that was far away, a huge vertical pupil was also staring at him...
Although there was no verbal communication, Augustine clearly understood the other party's intentions in his mind. He frowned slightly, and then bowed and bent over.
The pupil disappeared, and then the portal expanded again, and countless black shadows poured out!
These two-meter-long, four-legged creatures have densely packed eyes on the top of their heads. Their thick bodies are extremely powerful, and their mouths full of jagged teeth are full of lethality. The long tail of more than one meter shone with purple light.
But in a few seconds, nearly a hundred of these so-called "infected beasts" sprang out, and the number continued to increase.
After jumping out of the five or six-meter-high portal, they landed firmly on the ground. The two tentacles above the giant mouth swayed sensitively, as if they were smelling something, and then they chose a target and went straight. —Swarms of "infected beasts" ran past Augustine, all of them bypassing his position far away.
Augustine turned his head and saw a wild boar trying to escape hundreds of meters away was overtaken by the fast-running "infected beast". They pounced on the wild boar and stabbed it with their tails, and the struggling wild boar twitched and stopped After a few seconds, it stood up again full of violent aura-many bone spurs grew on its body, and its size also increased a lot, obviously after possessing the "devil" blood. Feel like...
Augustine was thoughtful, but when he heard the movement from the distant sky, he turned around and raised his eyes to lock on the three dragons rushing fast.
"Unfortunately, you are late."
Facing the fireball and ice cone falling suddenly, Augustine slightly bent his body, then jumped up suddenly, pointing straight ahead with the bone scepter wrapped in purple light in his hand.

When Nora heard Rody's shout, she reflexively looked into the distance.
She hadn't experienced the pain the "first generation" tieflings had experienced, so when she saw the purple flame, she didn't realize what was happening.
But the demonic aura that swept over afterwards was like a heat wave, making her feel like her body was burning with it!
The armored soldiers in front of them didn't seem to be affected. Both the dragon gun knights and the barbarian warriors looked around. But Nora looked left and right, and found that her companions showed the same pained expressions as herself...
"Hurry up and save them! Your lord!"
Nora heard Elder Luther's cry, but at this moment she was already tormented by burning bone marrow and fell to the ground, even her calf spasmed with pain. She could see that her skin began to fall off as if it had been scalded by boiling water, sharper bony spurs grew out of her slender tail, her legs became longer and more powerful, and an indescribable force seemed to be pouring into her thin body .
"Ahhhh—"
The screams kept ringing out, and Nora bit her lip to prevent herself from losing control, but more and more companions around her shouted out of control. And just when she thought she was going to pass out in this pain, a burst of golden light seemed to drive away the pain in an instant, leaving only the tingling feeling of growing strength...
Climbing up in embarrassment, Nora realized that Akasha, who was wearing a teaching robe, was holding up a white scepter, releasing the "group healing technique" over and over again...
The golden light made Nora feel extremely dazzling, but the physical pain actually subsided. Not only that, she suddenly felt that her body seemed to break through a certain limit—
"Is this... what they call 'ability'?"
