Chapter 56 Eyes
Human beings' "imaging" skills are based on their own memories and experiences.So two people may draw very different images for the same imaginary creature, but this process is not random.

It is said that a skilled person can image the enemy at the moment of being attacked by a spirit body, which is also the premise of any effective countermeasure.

But it can also be said that any wizard who can't do this is dead.Because without imaging the opponent, it is impossible to confirm the opponent's attack method.

And the farther away from the material world are the imaginary creatures, the harder it is to describe.

Wizards of the same lineage will inherit the imaginary image obtained by their ancestors in the past through spiritual resonance.This kind of inheritance is of great significance, just like drawing the sea charts and yellow pages of the vast imaginary world for hundreds of years. It is the most precious wealth accumulated by human beings in the exploration of the past dynasties.

This is Colin's second time imaging creatures from the void.A few days ago, the night when he became a fang, he performed the ceremony with perfect preparation and without interruption, but he still encountered a complete failure.

But this time, the attempt was made under the condition of being mentally shocked, time was running out, and it was accompanied by a battle with that thing, so it could be said that there was little hope.

"The other party is... in human form." Colin said painfully. He was almost driven mad by the illusions that kept popping up in his mind, but he still had to carefully feel whether each description in his mind was a little closer to the truth.

A few seconds have passed, and only the outline of "it" can still be seen at this time.

As the imaging progressed, the position of the figure became volatile, sometimes far away, and sometimes almost close to the eyes.

Colin couldn't be sure what it was doing at this moment, but the sense of danger it gave him was constantly rising, and the increasingly intense hostility was depicted by the illusion in his mind as huge teeth, which ablated and decayed in the next moment.But since these details are still changing rapidly, it must not yet be the real image.

"Human form." Arecio repeated Colin's words. This is already a very important clue, and the scope has been narrowed down a lot.

As long as they are not unlucky enough to run into something that has not been recorded, there are only 45 kinds of human-shaped devils in the records of "Demon Hierarchy".

……

Giovanni's fingers of his left hand dug deep into the wound in his thigh, using the excruciating pain to keep himself awake, or at least not pulled into the frequency where "it" was.

Because the symbiotic bacteria in the blood are secreting a large number of triggers, sharp pain is like the best stimulant.

He was holding the pistol firmly in his right hand, and was shooting in the direction of the wizard at a frequency of one shot every three seconds.

"Bang", "Bang".

Whenever a gunshot rang out, it was bound to be accompanied by a shrill scream, which accurately knocked down the bullets.

He was covering for Colin, but not for long.He has fired three shots so far, and there are only three bullets left in the magazine.

And he would soon become numb to the constant pain in his thigh.

The sound of the howl seemed to be becoming hazy, which meant that he was gradually losing the ability to resist as the number of times he confronted the howling directly increased.

No matter from which point of view, he could cover for Colin for another ten seconds or so at most.You must give up shooting that wizard.

……

The devil can't focus on attacking Colin at this time, it must ensure that its host will not be killed.

It didn't expect that the roar it used for sneak attack at the beginning would put it in such an embarrassing situation.

If two people fall into one's own frequency, then it only needs to kill and devour them in one fell swoop. The souls of ordinary people are very small and fragile, and it is sure to do this within five seconds.

But now, one has entered one's own frequency without being lost for long enough to even begin to paint its image out of nowhere.

As for the other person, despite being continuously shaken, he still stayed in the lower realm like a nail, constantly attacking his host with a strange and dangerous prop.

The current host, the so-called wizard, was deceived by himself all the way, and opened the shell of the heart in a ridiculous delusion. He is indeed a complete waste.But if he died, he didn't know how many years he would have to wait to find such a suitable anchor point.

Every three seconds, it would turn its attention to the lower realm, knocking down the bullets fired at the host with a roar, so that it could not focus on obliterating the person who was imaging it.

In addition, there is another mouse peeping at an unidentified place not far away, and it faintly feels that that is the real threat.

Facing attacks from three aspects at the same time, it didn't know how to deal with it properly.

But the only thing that is certain is that time is still on its side.

……

The phantom images in his field of vision kept changing, and Colin gradually felt a stabbing pain in the depths of his mind.

The previous screams seemed to have temporarily opened a crack in the shell of his heart, while the constant roars in the physical reality were like the same huge hammer hitting his spirit again and again.

On the contrary, this helped him to temporarily weaken the self-protection mechanism in the deep spirit, and the gap on the heart shell was widening.As the consciousness gradually fades away, the efficiency of imaging is getting higher and higher, and he is getting close to seeing the real image.

Slowly, he saw another pair of eyes, the distance between them was incredible.Although it grows on a humanoid body, it is definitely not the appearance that a human being will have.

"Weird eyes." Colin conveyed almost unconsciously that he had lost his ability to speak a little bit.It takes a lot of effort just to say these words with willpower.

"It" is characterized by weird eyes, and Alessio receives this information.But it's not enough. The eyes are the most inhuman part of the devil's image. If there is any abnormality in the eyes, the scope can only be reduced by about double at most.

"What kind of eyes? What color pupils? How many pairs?" Alessio asked calmly, but using several questions like this still revealed his inner urgency.Giovanni had only two bullets in his pistol, and there were eight seconds left on the clock.

Arecio is reminding Colin to focus on the eyes, because it is better to completely clear one part than the blurred whole body, and maybe the type of the opponent can be determined in one fell swoop.

"you……"

At this time, the wizard stumbled and began to speak.It was a voice that seemed to have not adapted to the human voice, and had a more reptile-like neighing.

"It's too late to stop at this time."

Although it was the wizard's throat that spoke, it was clearly the devil who spoke:
"Otherwise you can't escape..."

When it says this, it is not just a futile verbal threat.

In fact, once Colin had established an image of him in his mind, he would have a permanent connection with it.

Arecio and Giovanni's strategy to deal with the devil has always been to kill the host and exile them back to the virtual world.

But if imaging is done, a connection will be established.

Just like two people exchanging addresses, if the image is successfully imaged, then even if the devil returns to the imaginary world, there is a probability that when Colin inadvertently recalls that image, he will sense Colin's location at the same time.

Unless this part of the memory is erased, the connection will always exist, the difference is only deep or shallow.

"I saw."

Colin said with difficulty that he had no intention of stopping because of the devil's warning. Sometimes the more the enemy persuades you not to do it, the more you should do it:

"I saw it, it was a pair of erect eyes."
