Chapter 68: The True Identity of the Corpse
"It stands to reason that I should have died a long time ago. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Even when the spirit talks about his own death, it is in that flat tone, as if he has seen through everything in the world:" And according to what you said. I came to this planet as a 'corpse'. Although it seems that as a 'corpse', I have no wisdom at all. But now I can stand here and speak, and I have all the memories of the past. That means .."
"What does it mean?" Bai Xiao couldn't help asking, everything Ling said had completely attracted him, and he could feel that he was slowly getting closer to the truth.
Ling glanced at Bai Xiao and brushed the hair on the back of his neck: "I have seen this mark on those black monsters. In other words, corpses are related to the creatures of the universe. It is very likely that my current body, and indeed the bodies of all the corpses, was created by that cosmic creature. And the souls in it should all be the souls of creatures on the planet it destroyed, just like me. ”
"Shhhh Bai Xiao's eyes widened and he gasped, this answer was really too scary.
If what the spirits say is true, then the corpses they are facing now are all people from other planets, intelligent beings like them.
And their real enemy is the cosmic creature in the mouth of the spirit, a monster who specializes in destroying planets and killing races.
Then what awaits the earth and mankind is the devastating invasion of this monster.
These corpses are already a little overwhelmed now, and I can't imagine what it will be like when that monster arrives.
Jiu'er, who was floating on the side, also fell into deep thought, and the problem now was that she didn't know what Ling said at all. So how did she know so much about them if she didn't know these things?
From her reaction to seeing the corpse after absorbing the origin soul power on Yan Ke's body, to clearly understanding the race of each corpse. It was as if she had personally traveled to their planet and had done a pretty good job of it.
Don't..
Bai Xiao also thought of this, and he couldn't help but grab Ling's shoulder again: "Ling, does that spherical creature you said have a name?" Or does it take some other form? ”
"Nope. It never told us it had a name, and it said it was its only form. Ling didn't know why Bai Xiao asked, but he still replied with certainty.
Letting go of his hand with some disappointment, Bai Xiao looked at Jiu'er next to him, who was also disappointed, without a trace: "It's not that there is no gain at all." The clues we know today are enough for us to digest for a while. And I'm sure that even if Jiu'er is not that spherical creature, you are definitely inseparable from it. ”
Jiu'er nodded in frustration, originally thinking that she would finally be able to know her true identity, but now it still seems unsatisfactory: "It seems that I still have to put my hope on collecting my origin soul power." Bai Xiao, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first. ”
The more she knew, the more doubts she had in her mind, and she was sure that there would be answers to them in her memory, but no matter how much she recalled, she couldn't recall a single bit of information, which made her more confused and uneasy.
Bai Xiao somewhat understood Jiu'er's mood at the moment, and hoped to help her as much as possible.
After Jiu'er flew back to the soul space, Bai Xiao continued to communicate with the spirit.
When Bai Xiao was distracted and communicating with Jiu'er, Ling kept thinking about something, and only when Bai Xiao came back to her senses did she continue to speak: "But this is too strange. According to the spherical creatures, this monster is constantly destroying planets because it is to devour the souls of the planet and all life. But now those of us who should have died have turned into corpses and are here. Anyway, it doesn't fit that monster's style. ”
"Maybe something happened to it?" Bai Xiao thought of this possibility, if this was really the case, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for them.
Ling didn't refute Bai Xiao, she also felt that this was more likely: "Maybe there really was an accident." But it's certainly not dead, its power is still there. ”
Saying that, Ling stared at Bai Xiao's eyes, and the star-shaped pupils flickered: "The only thing I can control now is my soul, which is the place protected by your power." And the power of that monster is all in that sigil, suppressing my power. I could barely use my abilities except for the normal movement of this body. ”
As the spirit spoke, the 'corpse' mark could be seen lit up, black energy surged, and after a while, the light in the spirit's eyes dimmed. Obviously, as she said, as long as there is a 'corpse' imprint, she can't use any power.
"Is that all it takes?" Bai Xiao couldn't help but feel a little worried, if he couldn't use his strength, then the current spirit would be no different from ordinary people, and it would be difficult to survive in the current world.
Ling lowered his head, and after a while, he raised it again, and his words revealed a bit of joy: "No, I just tried, I can reopen a channel to use my power near the spiritual source." It just takes time. ”
The spiritual source that Ling is talking about is Bai Xiao's soul space, and Ling is planning to redraw a channel for the circulation of soul power near the soul space, so that she can avoid the suppression of the 'corpse' mark and exert her ability.
"That's good. It's a pity that I can't help you get rid of this damn 'corpse' mark. "It's also very unwilling to mention this Bai Xiao.
The current spirit is neither a complete corpse nor a complete intelligent creature, and under the effect of Bai Xiao's purifying power, she should now be regarded as a combination of a corpse and an intelligent creature.
In essence, she still belongs to the category of corpses, but she has her own mind and memory, and as long as the existence of the 'corpse' mark is not discovered, it is no different from a human.
If he had to say it, Bai Xiao felt that it was most appropriate to use a half-corpse to describe the current state of the spirit.
"It's okay. This mark is equivalent to my current lifeline. If you help me get rid of me, I'll have to die again. Ling suddenly smiled, with endless vicissitudes and emotions in his eyes: "To be able to live again, even in this state, I am very satisfied." ”
At this time, the spirit does not look like a girl at all, and all that is revealed from her body is the breath of seeing through the world.
Looking at such a spirit, Bai Xiao suddenly couldn't help but want to ask a question: "Spirit." That, how old are you? ”
Ling put away his smile and glanced at Bai Xiao indifferently: "I can't remember clearly, for us Phantasy Star people, the most important thing is time." If you really want to count it, you're probably over a thousand years old. ”
Bai Xiao was immediately embarrassed, looking at the face of a beautiful girl, he reached the spirit in his chest, and regretted very much that he asked this question: "Hello old man..."
Still with that flat expression, Ling walked up to Bai Xiao, and his white little feet stepped down fiercely: "Actually, I don't care much about this." But I just want to stomp on you. ”
Although he can't use his strength, the physical fitness of the Lingna scholar is there, and it is real to go under this foot.
Bai Xiao bit his lip stubbornly, holding back himself from screaming, feeling the force coming from his feet, his facial features were about to twist together.
He understood a truth: don't owe in front of an older woman, especially this kind of woman who looks like a beautiful girl and is scared to death by her real age!
