It’s true.
If Su Ziyu had obtained this information from so magic book, so secret manual, or even a ring, he wouldn’t have been particularly surprised.
Because those are the kinds of things one would normally encounter in a fortuitous adventure.
But he was inside a ga now, an imrsive virtual ga. The fact that the information recorded on the in-ga items is actually real is quite surprising. In this ga, supernatural beings are relatively common, and they can be encountered shortly after entering the main storyline. Even though the main storyline is quite challenging, if the knowledge and abilities it represents are real, then Su Ziyu could sowhat understand why the ga was set to such a high level of difficulty.
"Is soone playing a joke on everyone?" Su Ziyu murmured unconsciously.
Essentially.
You could consider the ga nad "Steam Punk: Desire City" as a magic secret manual. The initial creator must have embedded his own mischievousness into it, probably wanting to see the shocked expressions on players’ faces when they discover that the knowledge recorded on the in-ga items is real.
"But if you think about it this way, this design is indeed very effective," Su Ziyu thought to himself, "Those who discover this secret can directly use the virtual pod to train."
No one in the Rebel Army knows magic.
They are completely playing this ga as an HGA. If it weren’t for the Space-Ti Monitor System attached to Su Ziyu, he probably wouldn’t have thought the recorded knowledge was real either.
"So?"
"If you can beat this ga, you can directly obtain a magical side inheritance?" Su Ziyu glanced at the information on the skill tree.
The manuscript contains just entry-level things.
The ditation technique is not much different from the one from the Demon Hunter Plane, but so magic techniques are quite mature, with complete magic models, like circuit diagrams produced on a production line, which you can use to cast these spells once morized.
A more straightforward explanation is that these spells have been optimized for generations, making them very easy to pick up.
"Magic potions?"
"Hmm? rman scales? Mandala root? Bat wings? Blood Toad eyeballs? What kind of nonsense is this?" These magic potions are even more complicated than those from the Demon Hunter Plane, Su Ziyu just glanced at them and tossed them aside.
Based on his experience, magic potions tend to have side effects.
Su Ziyu carefully searched the room again, but unfortunately, this Divination Master’s strength was quite ordinary, and the most valuable thing he had was that manuscript.
It contains six magic models, all of which are quite simple tricks.
"I might consider taking this ga pod." Su Ziyu thought for a mont and then directly exited the ga.
Buzz.
When Su Ziyu erged, there were already few people left in the entertainnt room.
As he started to return to his room, Su Ziyu saw a middle-aged man dressed like a cleric. The man had a gear-like badge on his chest and nodded slightly, seemingly with a kind smile.
People from the chanical Pantheon.
On this planet, there is only one powerful religious force, which is the chanical Pantheon, and so people within the Rebel Army are also their believers.
Inside the room.
Su Ziyu randomly grabbed a piece of paper and then spread it out flat on the table.
Then, recalling from mory, he drew a hexagram array he had seen in the ga. Thanks to his enhanced mory ability, Su Ziyu replicated it almost perfectly.
"Why doesn’t it work? Is the material insufficient?" Su Ziyu injected a sliver of Spiritual Energy, frowning.
It was completely ineffective.
The array made Su Ziyu’s spirituality slightly tremble, intuition telling him it was sowhat unusual, and he wanted to try it in the real world.
"Lady Inid said that blood can be used as the most primitive casting material."
"I wonder if my blood will work?" Su Ziyu hesitated for a mont, then found another piece of paper. Parchnt wasn’t available here, so he used a thicker piece of paper. Then he drew teor and lightly slashed his fingertip. A trickle of blood quickly overflowed, and because he had already enhanced High Tier regeneration, the wound healed at an astonishing speed, forcing Su Ziyu to make another cut. He then quickly used blood to draw the hexagram array.
This ti, he could feel a distinct energy fluctuation.
As Su Ziyu completed it, a spiritual light appeared over this ordinary thick paper, followed by a prompt from the Space-Ti Monitor System.
—"Unknown Summoning Array [Wondrous Object]!"
It really worked.
Su Ziyu picked up the paper and hesitated, unsure whether to activate it, but after so thought, he decided to give it a try since he had co this far.
Injecting a strand of Spiritual Energy into it.
The thick paper before his eyes instantly lit up, followed by wisps of flas. The flas burned across the paper’s surface, rapidly consuming Su Ziyu’s blood, and then a waft of sulfur spread.
In the void above the array, a blood-red hand with sharp nails suddenly reached out.
——"Bloodthirster - Kaha [Chaos Demon][Subordinate Lord][Khorne Servant]!"
A powerful chaos force field gradually spread.
In Su Ziyu’s vision, before him in the void constructed by the array, a demon shadow around five ters tall gradually appeared. It had gemstone-like blood-red skin, wielded a longsword covered in teeth, clad in heavy red armor, very different from the abyss demon rembered, as one of its arms was a tal-constructed chanical prosthesis, one of the demon horns on its head was broken, and its wings were seven or eight ters long, seeming to want to escape from the array, and upon seeing Su Ziyu, it furiously roared.
"What the hell!"
"Why is it a subordinate demon lord?" Su Ziyu was startled for a mont, promptly pulled out his Sinful Greatsword without hesitation.
No.
The divination master’s array shouldn’t be so powerful, right? Summoning demons has tier restrictions! High tier demons generally don’t respond to external summoning!
It’s bad.
It’s his blood!
Su Ziyu quickly realized the cause of the anomaly; he used his own blood to draw the summoning array, which he instinctively ignored the fact that he was already a demigod.
The Sinful Greatsword turned into a deep red fla arc, instantly severing the demon claw just erging from the void.
The Fire of Sin spread along the demon’s body, causing it to scream in the void.
With angry, reluctant roars, the demon gradually dissipated before his eyes.
Its form was burned away by the Fire of Sin before it even descended.
"There’s sothing wrong with that virtual pod!" Su Ziyu withdrew the Sinful Greatsword and waved his hand, turning the summoning array before him into dust.
In that ga, what’s recorded is indeed magic side knowledge.
But!
It’s mixed with so forbidden knowledge about demons.
In any civilization!
Knowledge related to demons wouldn’t be released so casually; in Su Ziyu’s judgnt, the magic side knowledge recorded in the ga is no longer a windfall, but a trap filled with malice and conspiracy. Luckily, the rebels have been using it as an H-ga to play; if anyone with magic talent discovered its secrets and used that knowledge, the entire rebel base might have turned into ruins.
anwhile.
Hundreds of kiloters from the underground base, in the tribe Su Ziyu once visited.
Blood soaked the land, flas consud the houses.
A calamity from the heavens directly obliterated this primitive tribe of thousands, everywhere were distorted and incomplete corpses killed by strange powers, almost devoid of resistance, no matter firearms or cold weapons, be it ordinary people or chieftains modified with bionic transformation, powerless against the figure roaming the corpse piles wearing a broken golden crown, resembling a dry corpse, utterly slaughtered.
It wandered like a wraith here all day, after killing the entire tribe, it stood motionless among the corpse piles like a human statue.
No need for water, no need to eat, not even needing to breathe.
If undisturbed, it could remain here for ten, twenty, or even a hundred years, until the Empire’s scouts discovered the anomaly and turned this area into a restricted zone.
"Chaos..."
"Demon..."
The dry corpse lurking in the ruins with a broken golden crown suddenly raised its head, the blood-red pupils glowed as a substantial light, its neck twisted one hundred eighty degrees, turning to face the direction of the rebel underground base.
Its sunken face showed a slight expression change, a trace of yearning, though its body, just an empty shell, couldn’t express this emotion well.
Next second.
Its figure rose directly into the air, flying towards the rebel underground base.
Ten minutes later.
On a small hill five kiloters from the primitive tribe, the air suddenly twisted, an elusive shadow appeared, his voice slightly trembling murmured, "So close! I almost thought I was discovered."
"It has really appeared!"
"No."
"I must imdiately inform Her Majesty the Empress!..."
"What made it leave the ruins of the Imperial Capital? What’s in this godforsaken place attracting it?"
The shadow gradually dissipated.
Soon, a small flying device rose up dozens of kiloters away.
