Chapter 303: Turning Decay into Magic
Life is the most amazing and mysterious thing in the world, and there is no one. Carved into beams and beams, turning decay into magic, this vast world, it is with countless life embellishments, it has become so colorful.
Throughout history, there have been countless madmen and geniuses who have thrown themselves into taboos with various purposes, trying to steal the authority of the gods and exercise the great cause of creating life.
But they all failed, without exception.
If we summarize the results of failure, we can basically see it as the prototype of necromancy, which far distorts the original intention. The difficulty of creating life is also evident from this.
Every life that exists today, whether it is a proud dragon or a humble loach, can be traced infinitely upwards to its original source. In other words, one of them counts as a continuation of the life of the previous generation.
Even monsters like sand spiders must come from the transformation and cultivation of existing life, rather than real "creation".
But in this underground cave that no one knows, the willow branch that the goblin unintentionally planted back then has brewed a real miracle through the action of time!
Born purely out of a pile of spiritual fragments, inhabiting an entire race rather than an individual, not a continuation of any other life—such an Elizabeth, the mere existence of such an Elizabeth is in itself a great test of today's mainstream theory!
By the standards of any denomination, this is undoubtedly a grave blasphemy against the gods.
If Elizabeth had met a magician who had made her life's goal to learn, she would have been treated as a diluted treasure. But unfortunately, for the lord of Alpine Castle, there is no such thing at all.
He was now a greedy landlord and a rich man, ready to squeeze all the bones of Elizabeth, a poor poor peasant, out of oil.
"Be honest. Richard mercilessly poked her forehead with a magnetic hammer, leaving a row of thrilling red marks on his skin, "Continue to explain, what happened in between the birth of consciousness and the way you are now?"
Elizabeth glared at Richard viciously, tyranny and anger brewing in her eyes. If there is warmth in his eyes, even if the lord is wearing ten layers of Titan iron armor, he will not be able to avoid the fate of being burned to slag on the spot.
But unfortunately, this heterogeneous beauty obviously does not have similar abilities. The eyes are always just eyes, not only did they fail to make the other party jealous, but they suffered two more hits of the people's dictatorship.
"As a colony of demonic fish, I can't get out of the lake of blood and can't really move freely. It's like a cage, imprisoned forever. "After all, form is stronger than people," Elizabeth continued, taking a deep breath.
"A firewood chick who longs for freedom. Richard summed it up with precision and viciousness.
"So I desperately broke free from the school of demonic fish, but without the support of the source, my spirit began to fall into a rapid decline. It has to enter the body of the mother worm and live in an egg that has not yet begun to germinate. Elizabeth had a rare look of confusion on her face.
"Can you believe it, it wasn't an ugly sand spider that finally broke out of that egg, but ......"
"It's you, it's beautiful, isn't it?" Vera's expression looked a little unacceptable.
Seeing Elizabeth nodding slightly, she was silent for a long time and finally asked in disbelief, "How is this possible?"
Richard sighed, "I believe." ”
Of course, this belief is not without reason, and there will never be a second person in the world who knows that the current appearance of the Lord of Alpine Fort is at least five or six points similar to that of his previous life, far deviating from the growth trajectory that this body should have.
He had pondered this question a long time ago, and he couldn't find any other rational explanation for it other than the effect of the spirit on the physical body.
His spiritual origin is not stronger than that of ordinary people, and his body has grown to ten years old when he takes over, and he has limited space to play, so he can still have such an obvious effect.
And Elizabeth is a miracle piled up by a large number of spiritual fragments, and the soul power is incredibly powerful, which is inevitable. It has been imperceptible since the egg period, which is far easier than taking over halfway.
As a result, the extremely strong spiritual guidance caused a complete rebirth.
Although the final effect is incredible, it is Elizabeth herself who is really incredible.
And it was clear that even if she was as mentally strong as her, she still couldn't completely ignore some of the characteristics of the original egg—otherwise there shouldn't have been eight short limbs on either side of the skull.
Elizabeth never had the slightest sense of belonging to the sand spiders, and these short arthropods represent the part of heredity that cannot be completely erased no matter how powerful the spiritual guidance is.
As soon as Richard shared his general idea with the people around him, he immediately gained the approval of the others.
"And she...... Doesn't he have the ability to switch bodies infinitely and never die?" said Higuain, stammering with his mouth half-open.
A child of his age has a purely instinctive mind, and often likes to scare himself in a powerful direction.
"You'd be wrong. "As the Sacred Word Prayer has become more profound, the lord has become more and more aware of the inexplicable mystical relationship between the mind and the body, and he has also deepened his understanding through personal experience.
"Since she has a body, it means that the spirit and body have begun to bridge with each other, and since then there has been a bond. Believe it or not, when I beat her to death, I also cost her half her life. ”
"Three-quarters of the way around, I've lost three-quarters of my soul origin. Elizabeth looked at Richard coldly.
The anger that had been churning in her eyes suddenly disappeared at this moment, and she became extremely calm. But anyone who sees this kind of look will not doubt that there is definitely a deeper and cold resentment hidden under the calm.
"Then why is your body weakening as well?" the lord asked, taking advantage of her distraction, to ask a crucial question.
"The newborn body is already weak and needs spiritual guidance to gradually become stronger. Elizabeth clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white with too much force.
"My lord, she has absorbed the soul fragments of so many people, will she also have all the knowledge of those people?" Higuain asked as if he suddenly remembered something.
"No way. Before Richard could say anything, Vera shook her head and rejected this baseless speculation, "The content contained in the soul fragment must be very trivial and complicated, and it should be difficult to piece together anything meaningful." ”
She pondered for a moment, then said, "But if it's the kind of knowledge that everyone has in their hearts, it will be very common in soul fragments and thus easier to form, and maybe it can really be inherited directly by her." ”
"That's right, so I know your language, and I know most of your common sense. Elizabeth held her head up proudly.
