Chapter 448: Skaha's Mission
Slowly opening his eyes, Todd found himself in consciousness and returned to the cave entrance of the snowy mountain.
The manticore, like a docile cat, crouched at his feet, purring in his throat.
Placing the dragon's claws on top of the lion's head, Todd was disappointed to find that nothing had happened.
"It seems that the holder of the soul link can take the initiative to close the channel of the soul seed. Todd rubbed the manticore's mane and said to himself, "After all, the soul link ability now has three derivative skills. ”
"According to the difficulty of use and function, they are the soul space, the soul materialization, and the soul seed. Soul space is to use the dark matter in the living body to open up a conscious space, soul embodiment is to use dark matter to create matter, and soul seed is to create soul shortcuts through dark energy......"
There are already three spell spin-offs in one ability, and will there be new uses as the power of souls increases?
Also, what about the group of fishmen living in the Leviathan's soul space?
The more he thought about it, the more clueless Todd became, so he simply gave up thinking and waved his dragon wings and flew in the direction of the ruins of the temple.
Meredith sat by the fire, heard the sound of wings flapping in the air, and stood up to look at the sky.
Todd slowly landed beside her, and the huge wind pressure set off by his wings blew out the already fading fire.
Looking at the smoke of the firewood, Todd said to Meredith in an apologetic tone, "I can use the flame breath to light this pile of ...... again"
Meredith combed the crow feathers, shook his head at Todd, and said, "It's okay, we'll go see my master now." ”
"Skaha wants to see me?" Todd put away his dragon wings, looked at Meredith and asked, "What's going on?"
"You'll know when you see her. Meredith walked down the path to the temple.
Walking on the ground with a man and a dragon, Meredith would look at Todd with a strange look from time to time.
Todd had no choice but to ask, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's okay......" Meredith turned his head and asked casually, "How do you feel about being in this form?"
"Doesn't it feel like it...... If you really want to say it, there will be some inconveniences in life, such as eating, sleeping, and some physical ......"
Meredith looked at Todd with amusement: "Having a child is related to the continuation of the race, there is nothing to say." ”
"So, I would like to ask, as far as you know, can those tyrantized demigods be able to have children with humans, and will they cause harm to the other party?"
Meredith looked at Todd with some surprise: "As far as I know, those demigods who have passed the trial can leave offspring after mating with humans and even other races. However, none of them has ever cared about the safety of the woman like you...... Tell me, do you love her very much?"
Todd was a little embarrassed, and there were some things he really couldn't say. For example, correcting a misuse in Meredith's words—not "she", but "they".
Todd, who had no choice, could only nod his head to deal with the problem vaguely.
Meredith turned his head and did not delve further into the topic, but said, "I'm interested in your new body......"
Todd stopped, a short question coming out of his mouth.
Meredith smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm referring to your abilities...... If I'm not mistaken, before you transformed into Tyrant's second form, you had Frost, Regeneration, Metal Skin, and so on. But now that you have access to a variety of abilities that you haven't had before, has anything changed?"
Todd propped his chin up with his forelimbs and groaned for a moment.
"If you don't want to say, you can do it when I didn't ask. ”
Todd shook his forelimbs and said, "No, I'm just thinking about how to explain it to you." Do you remember the ability of Soul Materialization? ”
"The skill of using soul power to create real things, I remember, what's wrong?"
Todd organizes the language: "With the power of the soul...... That is, dark matter, to make objects in reality, if the user's soul power is not strong, it can only make things that are lighter, smaller, and simpler, right?"
"That's right, so my master can make an apple tree, and you, at most, can only make a stick. ”
Todd touched the faucet and said quite embarrassedly: "You can only make things that are light in weight, small in size, and simple in structure...... At first, I thought that the ability to "materialize the soul" was not very useful to me, until I discovered some special products - microorganisms. ”
"Microbes?"
"Microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses are light in weight and small in size, and their internal structure is already familiar to me, and the most important thing is that these microorganisms can divide and replicate without having to make ...... repeatedly."
Meredith's eyes widened, "Microbes, bacteria, and what virus? What the hell are you talking about?"
Todd only remembered at this time that the woman in front of him was different from Leviathan and Skaha, she was not a pioneer in this world, and it was natural that she had not heard of these terms.
However, explaining these terms involves a lot of technical terms and theoretical knowledge, and Todd still intends to tell her in a simple and easy-to-understand way: "The so-called microorganisms are some very tiny creatures, which cannot be seen by the human eye." Importantly, microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses are the source of abnormal energy. For example, the regeneration and frost abilities you mentioned are both generated by their respective bacteria. ”
Meredith was completely stunned by Todd's explanation: "You mean...... The ability comes from this ...... of microorganisms called bacteria and viruses?"
"That's right, through the skill of soul visualization, I was able to synthesize bacteria and viruses with the dark matter in my body, and use them to obtain corresponding abilities. And I only need to create a small number of clusters of microbes that will be able to replicate themselves in my body and eventually reach the appropriate concentration for the ability to use. Todd opened his mouth and motioned Meredith to notice the fire looming in his mouth.
"For example, the Breath of Fire, which I didn't have in my body in the past. But through books and microscopes, I have a clear understanding of the structure of inflammatory bacteria, so using the ability of soul visualization, I can make a small amount of inflammatory bacteria in my body with dark matter and let them multiply on their own. ”
Meredith closed her eyes and shook her right hand at Todd: "Stop, stop! I don't understand what you're talking about at all! ”
Looking at the other party's depressed look, Todd shrugged helplessly: "Okay." ”
Following Meredith, Todd slumped into the halls of the temple and saw Skaha standing in front of the idol.
The latter's face couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, but said quietly: "Todd, I need you to do me a favor." ”
Todd crouched on the ground, trying his best not to let his tail and dragon wings crash into the pillars of the temple, and whispered, "Please tell me, if I can do it, I will do my best to do it." ”
Skaha looked at the mutilated idol and said, "As the first creations of the Crystal Lodge, the Precursors, we cannot directly interfere with this world, but only indirectly affect everything through a third person. ”
Todd nodded, "I understand. ”
Skaha turned around, her long purple hair swaying gently with the breeze in the temple, she looked into Todd's eyes, and said slowly, "Not long ago, one of my apprentices left the Shadow Realm before his training was completed. Now, I want you to bring him back to the Land of Shadows......"
Todd's mind came to mind the man he had fought with: "Is it Cú Chulainn?
Meredith said: "He is now in the Kingdom of Ulster......"
Skaha's next sentence startled Todd's heart: "Todd, bring Cúchulainn to me...... Live or die......"
