The feather was completely black without any other color under the light. It absorbed all the surrounding light like a black hole, emitting a mysterious and profound aura.
Herbert took the half-meter-long feather and waved it gently.
The feather waved gently in his hand, without tearing the space or exerting any special functions. It seemed ordinary.
But Herbert knew that this was not its true power at all.
Herbert placed his fingertips on the feather and slid them gently. Without even feeling any resistance, he discovered that his finger had been cut with a wound deep enough to reveal the bone.
These feathers are extremely sharp.
Even sharper than his sword!
But it is extremely light and has no weight at all. When you let it go from your hand, it will float in the air like other feathers.
Feather of a fallen angel.
Herbert took a deep breath and carefully took the feather back into his hand.
This is the first epic level monster material he has obtained!
"It's so beautiful—"
He sighed and gently smeared the blood from his fingertips on the feathers.
The blood was not absorbed by the feathers, but condensed into small crystal balls on the feathers.
[“Have you really decided to absorb it now?”]
Unlike before, this time Nenasha did not absorb the Fallen Angel's Feather directly, but took the initiative to ask:
[“Even if we exclude its own usefulness, it can be used as a weapon just by relying on its sharpness.”]
Unlike the Devil's Tears, which can only be used as materials for high-level rituals, the Feather of the Fallen Angel can be used as a concealed and powerful dagger.
After all, it was impossible for Herbert to get such feathers from Lucier for free every time.
[“Also, it may be a little difficult for you to absorb it right now, and it will be painful.”]
Unlike the previous legendary material, this epic material will provide Herbert with a considerable burden.
But Herbert remained calm, shook his head and said, "Absorb it."
"This thing will be absorbed sooner or later. There is no way to show it to outsiders. It cannot be used as a weapon at all."
If someone asked Herbert where he got the feather, how would he explain it
Did he say that he got it from Lucier? Or did he pick it up in the Aurora Sanctuary
No matter which reason you give, there are many loopholes that can easily be noticed.
In the process of interpersonal communication, we must learn a very important rule: you can lie, but don't lie easily.
Any lie requires more lies to maintain.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make.
A truly brilliant lie is never nine lies and one true, but nine truths and one false, or even ten truths and no falsehood.
A skilled sophist will tell very few lies, or even no lies, and choose to use a lot of true words to mislead.
As for Herbert, he has many means of attack when in desperate situations, and he is not lacking any of them, and he also has many alternatives.
This means that using it will do more harm than good.
While the risk is extremely high, the corresponding return is extremely low, which is somewhat not worth it.
Therefore, instead of actively holding this bomb in your hand and hiding it, it is better to absorb it now and turn it into your own power.
"Besides, if it doesn't work, I can ask Lucier for it."
Just because something cannot be easily obtained doesn’t mean it cannot be obtained. It always has a price.
"As for whether I can hold on? Haha - don't we still have you?"
Herbert smiled at Shadow and said teasingly, "You won't let me die, will you? You won't let me get hurt, will you?"
[“.—·I’m really impressed by you.”]
Nenasha was silent for a moment, then she sighed helplessly: [“Sometimes I can’t tell whether you are timid or brave.”]
Sometimes he is extremely cautious, but sometimes he acts recklessly.
Mr. He has a very flexible bottom line!
"Well, since it's just painful and nothing will happen, let's do it quickly.
[“In that case—”—then you should grit your teeth and experience this pain carefully.”]
Herbert was about to make a few more jokes, but he didn't expect that the next moment, a piercing pain surged into his heart, and he felt as if his heart was pierced directly by a feather.
No.
It's not an illusion.
The feather really went straight into his heart from his chest!
There was no wound left at all, and he merged into it instantly.
"Hiss..." Herbert let out a low growl, then bit his mouth tightly to prevent the sound from leaking out.
He didn't want Valentina to worry after hearing this.
Herbert clenched his fists in pain, feeling the crazy power flowing around in his body without saying a word.
He finally understood why Nenasha would actively advise him not to try it at this time.
This power is really too sharp for me now.
Herbert could hear his body being cut repeatedly, and then growing and healing rapidly in the next instant.
Judging from the results, he did not suffer any fatal injuries and his body became stronger little by little.
However, the pain in the process remained in his soul without any reduction.
At the same time, behind him, the stigmata of the wings that were almost formed began to grow rapidly!
Finally...completely connected!
Egg-
A blood-stained scarlet wing tore through the clothes on his back and broke out from the flesh on his back.
Unfold suddenly!
Chapter 192: Misty Hui Zhongsuan (5/6 plus 30 updates)
Night falls over the Misty Mountains.
The thick fog obscured everything, making this place seem particularly quiet.
But in this silence, a dishevelled figure was stumbling and running, moving quickly through the woods.
He was a tall, middle-aged man with a brown goatee, carrying a strong bow on his back and a short sword on his waist.
"Ha-.-Ha·-.-.Ahem, ha·-.-.
He gasped in pain, his entire chest rising and falling like a bellows, and his left hand disappeared directly from the wrist, leaving a twisted wound, which was simply bandaged and tied up with clothes.
He was still holding a package half a person's height in his right hand, and even at this point, he had no intention of putting it down.
His left leg seemed to have a large piece of flesh cut off by the sword, and the purple-black leg bones could be seen underneath.
Logically speaking, with such a serious injury, he should stop and rest.
But he didn't dare to stop for a moment, as if there was something terrible chasing him.
This is the Misty Mountains, a forbidden zone that takes lives.
Running at full speed in this dangerous area is a reckless act that is extremely undesirable and will undoubtedly lead to one's own death.
But middle-aged people have no choice.
His name is Steven Burns, the great-grandson of the legendary adventurer Wadley Burns.
And that person was the only one who escaped after going deep into the Misty Mountains that year and survived.
However, although his result sounds better than the other two who died suddenly, it is actually not much better.
In the last few years of his life, Wadley suffered from a strange disease, which failed to cure despite spending all his life savings.
As a result, the entire family was burdened with heavy debts.
After three generations of hard work and finally paying off all the debts, the entire Burns family was completely ruined.
It prospered because of legendary adventurers, and it also perished because of legendary adventurers. This can be considered a kind of reincarnation.
As the only descendant of this generation, Steven has always wanted to restore the glory of his family!
As a descendant of a legendary adventurer, Steven has always had a dream of returning here again, hoping to fulfill his ancestors' wishes!
He fought for this all his life.
Finally, at the age of 48, he successfully formed his own adventure team and recruited a group of like-minded companions.
They all wanted to explore the Misty Mountains and eventually make a name for themselves.
However, those people actually just planned to stroll around the periphery and then go back to cheat people under a false name.
Only Steven wants to really go deep into it and look for the treasure that his great-grandfather saw.
He also knew how shocking his ideas were and that they might scare others after he said them.
So Steven remained silent, pretending to have the same intention as them, and planned to wait until he actually arrived at the Misty Mountains before going on alone.
The bleak reality told them that this adventure in the forbidden zone of life was not as good as he had imagined.
You can't just come and go as you please.
The group was originally full of confidence, moving forward with the help of a simple map in their hands, preparing to pick some plants unique to the Misty Mountains as proof that they had been there.
But when they arrived, just as they walked into the outskirts of the Misty Mountains, a sudden thick fog spread without warning!
The fog was like a white curtain, swallowing up everything in an instant and covering everyone!
After that, the once clear maps and road signs became useless. They kept shouting, but the only response they got was their own echo.
In a panic, they began to shuttle blindly, trying to find a familiar landmark.
However, these people became more and more confused and eventually lost their sense of direction completely.
In the end, it was Steven who stood up against the crowd at the critical moment, shouted loudly, asking everyone to calm down, stay where they were and not move around.
Even though Steven's family has fallen on hard times, he still has the strength of a high-level ranger, the strongest among all.
Under his strong suppression, relying on his strength and prestige, Steven finally calmed down the others.
However, when they counted the number of people, they found that three of the original ten people in the team had disappeared in the heavy fog!
The three men disappeared silently without leaving any trace.
Before they disappeared, no one heard any cries for help, nor were there any signs of fighting!
Those three people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air!
Steven had an impression of those three people, including a high-level thief who was slightly weaker than him.
The silent disappearance of such a high-level thief also made everyone wake up.
Yes.
This place has never been a good place for tourism, but rather a forbidden zone where people are eaten without leaving any bones.
After that, everyone else placed all their hopes on Steven.
Under such pressure, Steven did not act rashly in the end. Instead, after thinking for a long time, he let everyone rest in place.
Everyone stayed up all night and sat together waiting for dawn.
The fog will not stay here forever. Once it fades away, they will be able to find their original path again.
This method was eventually unanimously recognized by everyone.
But by the next day, the fog had not dissipated.
