The dim and short day slowly came over Barbaros, and the tired people woke up silently from the nightmares of the night.
The sounds of people moving around gradually began to appear in the stronghold.
But none of this has anything to do with Hades at the moment.
In Hades's mud house, Hades was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, motionless, and almost without any breathing sound, as if he was dead.
After suddenly experiencing the subspace, Hades gradually became aware of his own "power".
He became "complete".
Just as a psychic can sense his own psychic powers and soul, Hades can also sense his own "untouchable power".
Psykers can sense psionic energy. They can feel the psionic energy surrounding them, and after training, they can also use and control psionic energy.
And the untouchables like Hades, like psychics, feel a power that belongs only to them.
He could clearly "see" that, with himself as a sphere, circles of black light were radiating outward. The farther away from him, the lighter the black became, and it gradually dissipated, and what he saw was a normal world.
The closer you get to him, the more the world becomes black and white and distorted. Near Hades' body, it even becomes a layer of pure black void.
He tried to sense himself and found that he was also an empty existence.
Is this the Untouchable
Hades continued to hold his breath and concentrate. As his perception expanded and focused, the black light emitted from Hades began to fade, but at the same time, the distance that the black light could reach was gradually extending.
He also tried to change the shape of the black substance, but found that he could not reproduce the state of the battle at that time, and his black area was still an honest spherical shape.
As the black realm extends, Hades can even "see" some faint white light a little further away.
This is the farthest limit that the black light can reach. Hades cannot perceive it any further.
When the black light barely touched the white light, it automatically began to erode the white light bit by bit. Because Hades diluted the black light to the limit and because the distance was slightly far, this erosion was almost nothing.
But Hades could clearly sense that he was "swallowing" the white light.
He first felt the white light with a bit of confusion—
—Wait, this white light is in this position. Is it his neighbor Lazer
So he is corrupting a human soul?? !!
Hades instantly took back his "black domain". He tried hard to compress his black range, but in the end Hades tragically discovered that he could only control it within a spherical range with a radius of five meters. If he wanted to shrink it further, it seemed impossible - the black had almost formed a substantial hole.
Hades suddenly opened his eyes and broke out in a cold sweat. He seemed to realize why people spontaneously hated him, stayed away from him, and even hurt him.
Is this just a subconscious self-protection behavior of humans when their souls are hurt, because Hades has been unconsciously eroding their souls before? !
Wait, what about Herrera, who had always had a good relationship with him? ?
Hades suddenly didn't dare to think any further.
Be sensible.
Hades began to carefully recall his previous memories of himself, and then realized that his previous power was too weak, far from the scale after the battle with the alien lord Lazar.
In other words, he may have caused spiritual damage to others before, but not as great as the harm he may cause now.
Hades breathed a silent sigh of relief.
But a feeling of regret still floats in his heart. Those who are nice to him and close to him will suffer the most from his unconscious harm.
Is this the Untouchable
In the setting, ordinary soldiers who fight with the Untouchables will lose their fighting spirit at best, or even suffer convulsions and coma at worst. And if you stay within the range of the Untouchables for a long time, you may even become unconscious.
Even though his physical condition was very weak before, and he had subconsciously maximized his perception range, after all, if he acted together frequently, it was very likely that small effects would accumulate and he would suffer from illness.
Damn it.
Is this the so-called golden finger that a time traveler has? Why does it become a double-edged sword for him
Hades tried in vain to shrink his black domain again, but it was obvious that the black domain trembled and there was no obvious change in its range.
Maybe he should practice more often? .
Just as Hades was immersed in thought, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Hades, it's me~ Why haven't you gone to work in the fields yet? Are you still injured?"
"I cooked some porridge for you, open the door quickly."
Herrera's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and Hades suddenly felt a small white light. He was startled and stood up immediately and ran to the corner farthest from the door.
Oh shit… what should I do
Hades was sweating profusely. He pretended to clear his throat.
"Um... Herila, please put the bowl outside. I don't feel well and don't want to get up. Please bring me some porridge."
Herrera's somewhat worried voice sounded again.
"Are you really okay, Hades? How about you open the door and I can take another look at you?"
"It's okay, it's really okay, I'm just too tired, I was sleeping just now, and I don't want to get out of bed to open the door."
"Okay," seeing that Hades insisted on doing so, although Herrera was worried, he didn't think much about it and just thought that Hades was indeed tired.
"I put the porridge on your windowsill, remember to drink it while it's hot."
"Okay, okay, okay."
"Then I'm leaving. You should have a good rest."
"Bye, bye, bye, bye."
Hades didn't open the door carefully until Herrera's footsteps faded away. The bowl of steaming porridge was placed on the windowsill. There was a lot of rice in it, which didn't look like the amount for breakfast.
Hades recalled the cluster of white light that Herrera had just seen. It was obviously much dimmer than the cluster of white light that his neighbor Lazer had seen.
Hades' heart twitched.
Damn it, what the hell is going on
Shouldn't he be in contact with other people
Filled with rage and self-abandonment, Hades once again began to violently try to compress his own domain. He was sweating profusely and his energy was surging - but in the end, the scope of the domain remained motionless.
grass!
Hades fell back into the house exhausted, holding his head in despair.
There is only one way, and that is to leave this human stronghold.
In fact, if he doesn't consider contacting people at all... his "untouchable" ability is actually quite useful.
Currently, every creature on Barbarus has a soul. Hades knows that he certainly cannot devour them instantly, but as long as the black is compressed to a certain extent, he should be able to suppress the opponent to some extent.
Powerful Untouchables can even make soul creatures subconsciously "erase" their own existence in their minds, thus achieving 100% "invisibility camouflage".
Hades thought to himself that if he insisted on staying in this stronghold and did not want to hurt others, he would not be able to carry out combat missions - the Death Guards needed at least two people to fight as a team, and they could only carry out missions that were away from the crowd and had no contact with combat.
For example, a lot of farming
Ugh. Hades doesn't want to stay here and till the ground until the Emperor arrives.
Although he has always regarded himself as the best at slacking off, and although his previous combat mission was just to chop down miscellaneous soldiers or something, if Hades really had to survive like this... Sorry, he really can't do it.
What's more, he himself now has the ability of "Untouchable".
People with this ability are naturally unsuited to living in normal human society and are destined to become warriors.
Maybe I should give it a try
Through the training and fighting of the Death Guard, Hades is no longer the skinny boy who could only flee in panic when faced with the Pale Smiler.
Now holding a sickle, he can even reap the lives of a group of Pale Smilers.
You must never passively wait for disaster to befall you. Before that, you must seize every minute and every second to become stronger.
Don't just wait passively!!!
Hades looked around his little house. There was only a bed and a table in the room. There were neatly arranged notes on the table. Farm tools were quietly hanging on the wall. Next to the door, there was a circle of ropes that he had twisted every day. These simple and monotonous things were his entire life in the past few years.
Hades stood up, his mind made up.
Oops, the settings were still not complete when I wrote them myself, so I'll put a patch here.
The protagonist is "similar to the untouchables", so please regard this as a cheat code of the "system" type (;Д｀)
The protagonist later on has two golden fingers. I’m very sorry, because the author’s poor brain really can’t figure out how to fight in this world without golden fingers and Warhammer.
Otherwise it's too grimdark, but later on there will be a time when the protagonist is tricked by the "golden finger". (Probably, as long as I don't change the outline.)
Shit, it seems like I can sign the contract, let me figure out how to do it, shit, that’s the first step to failure!
