Wasteland Echoer.

Chapter 542: Pramini's Tragedy
Facing this weird, ugly, dirty, rotten and ugly "ball monster", Wright manipulated the rich red magic power in his body and attached part of the power to his arms in the form of flames.

Then, he took a step forward, and at the moment his feet merged, he pushed his legs against the ground, using the rebound force to fly into the air. He spun half a circle in the air with the "Dark Touch", like an elegant dancer decorated with flower petals. He leaped down, tapped the monster's body a few times with his feet, and landed steadily near its head.

"The skin of this place is not much different from that of humans, and there are two fist-sized black eyes on it. I guess this should be the head of 'Pramini's Sorrow'. The monster's brain may be here. If we attack here, it should be able to make it lose its combat ability." Wright thought to himself, and the magic power in his arms was rapidly condensed at the same time.

A few seconds later, "Pramini's Sorrow" seemed to have finally noticed the tiny human who had jumped onto it. Before the huge monster could free its limbs to attack Light, Light transformed the magic power he had just condensed into two "medieval daggers" in the style of Rinie.

In fact, the shapes of these two "daggers" are basically the same as the "Perseus Dagger" of the ranked monster held by [Shadow] Joein who had assassinated him in Chekavsk. The concrete product of the red magic power is related to the user's cognition, but it will reflect the reality most realistically.

The first thing that popped into Wright's mind was the dagger of this ranked monster, which showed his determination to win in a critical situation.

But even if he had made up his mind, the reality did not allow him to hesitate at all. Although the "Pramini's Sorrow" was large in size and its movements were large, it was not as rigid and slow as Wright had expected.

After smelling the attacking aura from the magic power in Light's body, "Pramini's Sorrow" chose to bend its two hind legs to briefly support its huge body, freeing up its two arms that resembled those of humans and beasts, and clenching its fists.

At the same time, the dragon-like wings on his back spread to the extreme, and the two machine gun barrels began to emit a scorching light, constantly adjusting their angles in an attempt to launch an attack.

The situation is extremely critical and action is urgent.

Wright acted decisively and, with the help of the excellent grip of the top of "Dark Touch", firmly attached himself to the body of "Pramini's Sorrow" and stabbed down with the dagger in his hand.

puff!
The sound of the sharp weapon entering the flesh reached Light's ears, but before he could be proud for a second, he suddenly discovered that even though the two daggers had firmly pierced into the part of "Pramini's Sorrow"'s brain, there was no expected blood splattering, but instead, after a faint flame, the swords completely disappeared inside.

At the same time, the barrel on the back of "Pramini's Sorrow" was preheated, aimed at Wright, and fired a series of bullets with a "beep, beep, beep".

Fortunately, the solid "Dark Touch" blocked the first few bullet attacks for him, giving him time to react. Wright had to jump back and return to his original position.

"Lord Light, the power of the 'Breath of Mutation' will make both the divine and human parts of 'Pramini' disappear..."

"Let's forget about the 'Breath of Mutation' and the 'Death of Pramini'. 'Future', tell me, is there any way to defeat him in the materials you have read?" Wright forcibly interrupted the further explanation of "Future", suppressed the rapid breathing in his chest, swallowed a breath, and asked:

"I can't find its brain, I can't find its heart. Logically, no matter what power a monster is made of, it should have a core part that controls the entire body. There should be either a control center or a fragile brain that provides thinking functions. But... I didn't find its core part, which is what the 'warriors' often call the 'weakness'."

"Weakness...center...control..." "Future" used all his mental strength to quickly search for the above key words in his brain. At this moment, he did not look like the bloody, cruel and terrifying Lost One, but more like a humanoid machine that served as a storage device.

Perhaps, humans and all carbon-based creatures are just toys created at random by the Creator in the nightmare of confusion and sleep. They all rely on a certain specific program called "reason" to operate seemingly freely.

Machines are creatures created by humans that run according to specific programs. Humans are just machines created by the Creator in his own image to spy on the deepest and most supreme mysteries of the world and the universe.

A few seconds later, "Future" finally remembered a document called "Guide to Existing Monsters in the Red Swamp Area" that he saw when he sneaked into Yaroslav's office in the "Bitter Ruins".

At that time, this document was transmitted to the front line of the battlefield by telegraph, translated by the "Federal Decoder", and then urgently printed out using a manual typewriter.

When it was delivered to Yaroslav's desk, the ink was not even dry yet, and it exuded a rich and intoxicating scent of ink.

Thinking of this, "Future" mobilized the dark magic power in his body, and combined with the remaining power borrowed from the "Ancient Gods", activated the "Vision of Old Memories" skill exclusive to the [Explorer] profession that had just awakened last month.

Soon, the flow of time around "Future" was further slowed down. His eyes lost focus, his arms slightly raised up, and he made a gesture to open the door, but his body was extremely stiff like a sculpture, and his muscles were strangely tense. Even his heartbeat and breathing stopped briefly at this moment. The ability of "Vision of Old Memories" requires burning the user's magic power or other extraordinary power as a medium to communicate with memory, allowing the user to enter a certain memory world of his own. Usually, human memory is vague, and some extremely talented people have extremely clear memories, but "Vision of Old Memories" gives [Explorers] the ability to enter the parallel plane created by energy in the flesh, and explore all the information they need in the small space composed of memory.

However, in the process of activating the skill, the user's vitality needs to be constantly and slightly consumed in order to maintain the state of entering the alternate dimension.

Ordinary humans or magicians with little practice often get lost in their memories and are unable to find the correct information. In the eyes of outsiders, they can easily fall to the ground in an instant and die from suffocation or cardiac arrest.

But "Future" is lucky enough. He is a lost person, one of the 12 supreme "rulers" of the "Order Society", and a rare one who regains consciousness from the "heartless man" state.

Half of his vision was still observing this world of yellow sand, and the "Sorrow of Pramini" in front of him moving slowly and subtly, while the other half of his vision was walking with his body in Yaroslav's field office.

A few seconds later, he found the "Guide to Existing Monsters in the Red Zone" in his memory world.

The entire "Guide" contains a lot of content, but it is not complicated to search through. After opening the cowhide cover engraved with a golden double-headed eagle pattern, there are various names of "monsters" that are either existing or legendary, sorted in alphabetical order.

According to the alphabetical search, "Future" quickly found the keyword "Pramini", skipping the "Axe of Pramini" that made him sad, and followed by this "hairy monster" "Pramini's Tragedy".

However, when he wanted to read the text carefully and remember it, the familiar Cruz words were strangely distorted, as if an indelible deep-sea vortex attached to the surface of his vision and the depths of his mind, making it impossible for him to read it carefully or remember a single word.

But when he cleared his mind and just glanced at the words casually, they became strangely clear again.

As a lost person and a "controller" who is used to seeing extraordinary things, "Future" immediately made a judgment based on experience:

"It must be the result of half of my vision remaining in the external world, and the other half following my spirit into the realm of 'old memory vision'. I need to observe the situation of the battle at all times. If I divide my energy into the battle, I will not be able to focus on obtaining information from my memories. But once I fall into my memories, I will put myself and Light in danger.

"What should I do now? What should I do... Oh, right, since I can read the contents of the Guide without having to think or remember, I can make the flow of time inside and outside my memory consistent. As long as I read fast enough, I can avoid damage."

Having made the decision, the "Future" did not hesitate at all. He quickly adjusted the frequency of thinking in the alternate world constructed by "Old Memory Vision" to be consistent with that in the real world.

Although the flow of time in the real world has returned to normal, the brain of the future feels as if countless silver needles are inserted into it from different angles and dimensions, from the inside out and from the outside in, constantly rubbing and stirring his red and white brain matter that has been partially stained by the burning liquid.

Moreover, his heart began to beat violently, as if it was covered by an extremely thick curtain that kept squeezing inward, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

But Wright, who was standing aside, even though he possessed the red magic power that surpassed the power of God, was unable to perceive what "Future" had just done due to the limitation of "time". Seeing that "Future" was stunned in his eyes for several seconds, Wright continued to urge:
"Have you remembered its weakness? Tell me quickly. My attack just now only stunned it. With the recovery speed brought by the 'Ancient Power', it will soon be able to attack again."

"Listen carefully... Master Wright..." "Future" suppressed his physical and mental discomfort, forcibly suppressed his rapid breathing, and repeated the words in the "Guide" in a heavy voice:

"'Pramini's Sorrow' was formed in the 'Red Fantasy Ruins'. According to the records in 'Document K-25-P-03', it evolved from the dead gods trapped there. The gods do not know their own death, but once they truly sense the disappearance of their 'divinity' and death is approaching, they will quickly mutate into the work of 'Breath of Mutation'.

"In theory, every god has the potential to become this kind of monster, but the names may be slightly different. 'Pramini's Sorrow' is the product of the death of the Lord of Eternal Red. It is made up of various familiar beasts, legendary creatures, and mechanical random movements. However, once we observed its appearance, it was fixed.

"Its core area is at the very center of its body. It can only be found after every layer of skin, muscle, and bone is broken. Unless its limbs are cut off, the skin and flesh on its abdomen will degenerate in extreme pain, exposing the brain and nerves that control the body."
