Start with Star Iron and the connection will become stronger

But there is absolutely no such thing as a black snake hiding in the darkness and spitting out its tongue.

The sorcerer suddenly realized something, staring at Tallulah intently. He realized her identity and understood everything. "No—the Empire will not allow such a force to spread from the North to here. You were left alone by those court sorcerers of Saint Steed Castle. Kosciuszko...isn't he dead at all?"

Tallulah's eyebrows moved slightly.

She raised the sword and slashed it down directly.

Chi!

The flames consumed the body in the next second, instantly evaporating its flesh and bones, turning it into ashes.

Chapter 88 "Black Snake"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Tallulah said lightly.

As she turned around and sheathed her sword, the last vestiges of the warlock, who had already turned to ashes, drifted away with the breeze.

At the end of the stairs leading to the core city center, there is no longer any sorcerer in sight.

Fan Yu and Shuang Xing dealt with the opponents in front of them from the other side and walked towards Talula.

They looked at the surrounding scene of destruction caused by the flames. Dust left by the flames was everywhere on the ground. The bloody scene of human tissue and blood was rare in such a battlefield.

However, looking at the scene where even the stones had turned into the orange-red color of lava, and the scorching heat floating in the air, the blood here would probably evaporate into a cloud of blood mist in an instant, and the bones would be melted on the spot by the lava.

"You're here." When Talulah saw Fanyu and Shuangxing, she let go of the aura of fighting the enemy and breathed a sigh of relief.

Froststar surveyed the field and whispered, "With your power, you can't even distinguish friend from foe. It's truly terrifying!"

She had seen Tallulah's flames. Compared to the flames that burned the earth and everything, the power of the law before her, which was like [annihilating all things in the world into ashes], was the most dangerous.

Of course, if you judge this power carefully, it seems to be the power of Talulah's spell compressed to an extreme level.

But this situation of indiscriminate power is completely different from facing the burning flames.

The flames could still react based on the time, but the warlocks in the scene before them had no chance to react at the moment they were facing.

Tallulah nodded, her face gleaming brightly in the orange-red glow of the lava on the ground. "I first demonstrated it when no one was around, but now I find it's much more subtle. I've tried to minimize the violent reaction after compression, but I didn't expect it to still affect the surrounding area..."

"That should be the cognitive change brought about by the improvement of physical fitness." Fan Yu reminded.

[Connection] Arriving at Depth 6, he will receive attribute, characteristic, and power feedback from Tallulah's actions every day, and can also obtain some solidified enhancements to Tallulah's body functions.

But just like in a weightlifting competition, when the youth and adult groups lift the regular barbells of their respective age groups at the same time, the differences they feel are different.

Strength training is not so huge when you are a teenager, but you are already familiar with it as an adult.

Even though the two groups and rows are different, the physical sensation is normal. However, the real reality is that during the growth stage, the total weight has been increased invisibly.

Tallulah is the amplification after the [connection] with the present several months ago.

The feelings she thought she was experiencing expanded over time, and the 'normal force exerted' was enough to make the mass of many objects in reality unbearable.

Tallulah hummed, her face serious, "That's right."

Frost Star looked at her in confusion. The battle had obviously been resolved by Tallulah alone, but her face was still tense.

As usual, she would say something shameful yet encouraging. But now, she was completely different...

"Are you feeling tired?" Frost Star asked tactfully.

Tallulah was startled, then she said slowly, "Maybe I just consumed too much energy!"

Having said that, as Tallulah looked at the ashes on the stairs ahead, she couldn't help but recall the words the warlock had said before his death.

She killed Kosice...

Thinking about the 'prophecies' when the other party was killed, Tallulah's face became more and more ugly.

[Just submit to my will. I won’t listen to you.] — Tallulah snorted and whispered to herself.

She didn't continue to dwell on this obsession. Looking back at the current battlefield, Tallulah regained her composure and looked up at the end of the stairs. "Let's go. Up ahead is the power room that controls Chernobog's core city."

Subsequently.

Led by Tallulah, the group headed up the stairs.

Passing through a tightly closed door, Tallulah cut off the mechanism blocking the door, revealing a hole wide enough for two people to pass through.

They walked into it.

All they saw along the way was a vast expanse of metal. A little rain and dew fell on the metal pipes, creating a hissing sound and billowing white smoke. They stepped on the iron fences, which creaked and clicked until they finally arrived at the key power room in the core city.

The ground here is metal, and the energy of the Originium is surging. It collects the energy that fills the pipes everywhere and transmits it to a transistor in the center that looks like a tree diagram. The energy surging in the huge transistor, after being distributed, runs towards the control areas in the four directions below.

The nobles who had been talking with the sorcerers not long ago, after hearing the news that the sorcerers were annihilated by Talulah, had already taken refuge here.

There were several men in gorgeous clothes lying in a pool of blood after being assassinated by their colleagues, and next to them were several Ursus men adjusting their ties. It seemed that there had been a fight here before Fan Yu and others arrived.

"You... finally found it." The leading noble said with emotion.

Tallulah said to them calmly, "Will you surrender, or will you let me spend more time?"

The leading noble snorted. Even though sweat was dripping down his face, it didn't affect his superior demeanor in the slightest. "What a barbaric statement! How could a daughter raised by Kosice become like this?"

Tallulah frowned, realizing that the noble in front of her might have had a conversation with Koschei, and snorted coldly.

"And that power too. The ancient will lurks in the land of the Ursus Empire, which is quite similar." The noble said solemnly.

Froststar frowned: "That's Tallulah's spell."

"Heh... she's not that simple." The noble smiled playfully.

However, he didn't maintain his smile for more than two seconds before Tallulah suddenly drew her sword and threw it, piercing the sharp blade into the wall.

There was a loud bang in the field, and the nobles screamed in pain immediately, yelling and yelling on the spot.

Talulah walked over silently and pulled out the sword from the opponent's body without hesitation. The artery was pulled out with a crackling sound, and a large amount of blood began to gush out of the noble's body.

at the same time.

A crystal at the tip of a staff fell from under the noble's clothes with a clang.

The transparent crystal touched the flame, and a snake-like dark energy suddenly spread out from the field.

No. 8⑨ “This is a father’s expectation”

The black snake fog formed by the energy went straight to Talulah's face. She tried to cover her face to block the crystal carried by the noble.

But at close range, even though the black fog blocked it out, the substance floating in the air had a connection with her mind. Along with the power coming from the surroundings, it continued to mutter.

Tallulah stood there, lost in a trance for a moment...

If the warlocks who were burned to ashes by her were still alive, they would definitely know at this moment that they had also heard countless whispers when they felt the fire effect displayed by Tallulah coming towards them.

"Hmm..." Tallulah covered her forehead with her hands, but the mumbling in her ears became more frequent as time passed.

She was quite annoyed and tried to use the pain to dispel the connection, but it was of no use.

Frost Star saw her abnormality and subconsciously turned his gaze to Fan Yu beside him.

As one of Fan Yu's [Connectors], she knew that Tallulah was also connected to Fan Yu, and her connection was even closer than hers.

Perhaps only Fan Yu knows more clearly about Tallulah's current condition.

"Is it normal for Tallulah to be like this?"

Fan Yu stared at the front with a serious look. The noble at Tallulah's feet had died on the spot, but the grin on his face before death looked extremely weird.

He unfolded the perspective of [Harmonious Bliss] and observed the frequency of connection between himself and Tallulah.

The spectrum shows [Depth 6 (Blue)], just like the pulse monitoring line in the hospital fluctuating up and down. This state usually only occurs when the life and will of the connected person are greatly shaken (injured).

And the look on Tallulah's face at this moment clearly indicated a problem of willpower.

Considering that one of the characteristics of her personal state is the characteristic of a [black snake], Fan Yu had noticed that point a long time ago. As for Tallulah's current state, Fan Yu almost judged at a glance that her current appearance was related to that characteristic.

"That noble did something to her. It awakened something in her body." Fan Yu said.

Frost Star was stunned: "Inside Tallulah's body?"

She had never heard of this.

Fan Yu hummed, "Tallulah never told me. She's always been very silent about the past. However, this is probably related to the Duke of Kosciuszko who adopted Tallulah before she escaped."

After saying that, Fan Yu focused his gaze forward, with a golden blade already condensed in his hand.

He wasn't sure if his connector could break through the evil will of the land, but if Tallulah were to be taken over by the other party, it would mean that his connection target would also be broken. He naturally didn't intend to let that happen again.

at the same time.

Tallulah covered her head, feeling the tingling sensation in her cerebral cortex.

The thing that just emerged from the crystal made Tallulah feel annoyed and calculated: "Was it intentional?"

She stared at the corpse on the ground, thinking of what the other person said before his death, and the voice in her mind gradually became clearer.

That was the sound she had always avoided in the past, the sound that had occasionally echoed since she killed the figure sitting on the bench in the manor house that day.

"So, what are you, Kosciuszko?" Tallulah asked the voice in her head.

Kosice: "It's a rare reunion after a long absence. This is such a sad answer, my daughter."

Tallulah: "...What's the point of you showing up now?"

"Indeed, the moment you killed me, I wanted to wait quietly for you to slowly recognize the truth of this land. But things went beyond my expectations, so I had to do it ahead of time." Kosice's voice was very magnetic.

Tallulah was stunned, and the image of the pale-skinned, silver-haired middle-aged man wearing the noble's gorgeous military uniform gradually emerged in her mind.

"Since your encounter with the 'sun', your will has become increasingly unshakable. It's truly an incredible feat that you've made it all the way here," Kosice said admiringly.

Tallulah had no intention of listening to his praise, but she had more or less understood the secret of why he was there.

"So, when the conspiracy you planted in me long ago proved unsuccessful, you allowed this nobleman to appear before me?"

Tallulah snorted. "Using that crystal as a backup plan to awaken you, a snake that can only hide in the darkness? What's the point? Ultimately, those words you said back then are completely meaningless in my journey."

The 'reality' you speak of is merely a lie told by those who are weak-willed and evasive. As long as we persevere in our struggle, the flames of the Reunion Movement will never fade.

Even if I fall, there are still many fighters who carry this will."

Kosice: “…”

This is what is called having power, and taking it for granted to make sarcastic remarks.

Tallulah herself was not aware of the specific changes in her body, but Kosice, who had been sleeping in her spirit, was very clear about it.

Since leaving that village, my daughter's connection with Mr. Sun has been rapidly growing in both physical and mental strength. That change, in the long years of Kosice's life, was basically incomprehensible.

Why can the communion of wills bring about continuous growth between both parties and break through the boundaries of life and race, and even spirit and soul?

That man didn't seem to be from Terra's existing civilization, let alone a so-called Agor.

"My daughter... do you know that you don't have that power? You can't even get out of that village? The internal guards who sacrificed their lives for the empire will directly make you doubt everything at the moment." Koschei sighed.

Tallulah frowned and asked seriously, "Were those inner guards you left behind as a backup?"

Kosice: "No, I just arranged for my death to give you an unforgettable growth experience. This is what a father expects."

If there is no sun.

The patrol in that village would have spotted Tallulah in advance.

Without that sun, the inner guard would find Tallulah and destroy everything she held dear.

Without the Sun's careful actions, the infected organization originally formed by Talulah would be betrayed by its own people when it encountered a crisis, making this naive fighter feel the malice of the world.

Instead, the news that her companions had been killed in battle with the patrol team intensified Tallulah's fighting spirit.

After all, it was that outsider who created this situation - Koschei (Black Snake) thought with resentment.

Chapter 90 Black Snake Online

Tallulah's brows furrowed even deeper as she listened to Kosciuszko's words, which sounded like a father's advice.

"Your words make me sick, Kosice."

Given the level of mental erosion she felt at that moment, how could she not understand what expectations Kosice was referring to?

"You've abandoned your original plan and are now appearing to seize my will and control this body?" Tallulah said bluntly. Without waiting for Koceci's voice to rise, she said coldly, "You haven't changed at all, Koceci."

Kosice: "What?"
