The light of the mobile phone lights reflected on the ceiling, and fine dust fluttered in the vibrating air, drifting out in the faint white light.

Until it touches the slender tentacles like spokes on wheels, and suddenly pops open as if it has encountered some special protective layer.

The tentacles that suddenly appeared in this billiard room stretched out, exploring the unfamiliar environment, the gray-brown cortical folded body emerged in the center of the billiard table, the top and bottom of the barrel were protruding nodules, and from the nodules protruded five long, flattened arms at the ends, like starfish.

Although he had a relationship with this ancient intelligent race in Greenland, and now that they met again, Zhu Jue's sanity was still under attack.

The instinct of his body urged him to get out of here quickly, the farther away the better!

"Hello?"

Wave your hand, just like a young man participating in a college student social event.

The mood is the same nervousness, not that I am afraid, but I am worried that the other party will leave directly as before.

The purpose of summoning the ancient has been accomplished, and the next thing to do is naturally to find a way to communicate with the other party, Zhu Jue heard the cultists inside outside the corridor using human language, and thought that the ancient person could understand the meaning.

The Ancient One did not respond to the sacrifice offered by the cultists and chose to leave directly, while Zhu Jue did not even prepare the sacrifice, he didn't want to make the Ancient One disappear in front of him with a word.

The greeting was followed by silence.

But compared to the illusion that just came, the spiritual projection of the ancients not only did not mean to return, but became more and more condensed.

A tentacle reached out to Zhu Jue.

Forcibly restraining the body's subconscious counterattack, Zhu Jue vaguely noticed something, and stood in place with a frown, even the scavenger was deliberately hidden in his body.

The top of the ancient man's head was like a ball at the end of a starfish's limbs that suddenly lit up, and a brownish-yellow light immediately lit up at the tips of the tentacles, and an inexplicable suction completely enveloped Zhu Jue!

Deep purple light appeared all over his body, Zhu Jue's eyes widened, he never knew that there was such a thing in his body......

No doubt.

This is the remnant of the Elder Crystal!

"Crystal ...... in your body?"

The vibration of the air brought a low humming sound, and somehow, a staccato voice suddenly appeared in Zhu Jue's mind.

Sure enough, the sacrifice was secondary, and the key to the ritual was to make the ancients willing to talk, otherwise no amount of sacrifice would be effective.

Zhu Jue decided to continue with the words of the ancient.

"I got it in Greenland, and I met creatures like you and a terrifying amorphous monster that saved my life and transformed my body. ”

Trying to bring the topic to the changes made by the Ancient Crystal, Zhu Jue was not in a hurry to reveal his true purpose.

"That's our servant, the crystal controls Shogues, the situation of the same clan ......"

Obviously, the unexpected information of the same clan made the ancient man in front of him interested in the topic mentioned by Zhu Jue, and the content transmitted through mental fluctuations increased.

Crystal control Shogues?

Can the Ancients Crystal control that amorphous horror monster?

No wonder it was desperately chasing and killing the person who held the ancient crystal, and the ancients were also trying to find the crystal, but in Zhu Jue's memory, the ancient one should have obtained the ancient crystal one step ahead of Xiugos, why was the final result still killed?

"They were devoured by Shogues, the crystal seems to be useless, I would love to help you, but at that time my soul was completely polluted, it was your kind who threw the crystal to me, and I survived by the crystal. ”

Zhu Jue was a little cautious when he said this, he wasn't sure if the ancient man would suddenly get angry and make some unexpected moves after learning of the death of his kind.

"The crystal needs to be activated by the device, and I want you to destroy Shogues...... You've fused crystals, you're special......"

The Ancient's emotions did not fluctuate, and his absolute sanity allowed him to keep thinking even in the face of the death of his kind.

Before the words fell, several tentacles stretched out and began to make real contact with Zhu Jue.

This time, no light appeared, and Zhu Jue only felt that a faint electric current was flowing throughout his body, and the tingling sensation spread from the tail vertebrae to the back of his head.

"You, very special, human soul, should not be so powerful...... Isis has helped you...... Strange energy, water, its minions...... No, it was sealed, and now it was asleep, and it was a deeper ...... Not even I've seen it. ”

The ancient, who had sensed something through the detection, once again emphasized the specialness of Zhu Jue, and there was even an extra layer of doubt between his words.

Over the years, it has received many requests for human contact, but it has never seen such a special being, in Zhu Jue's body, it does feel the energy of the crystal, but at the same time it feels the imprint left by the great race of Isis in the soul of the other party, as well as some other extremely strange energy.

The ancient man was full of curiosity about the person in front of him, and the round ball on the tentacles on the top of his head flickered again and again, and the slender tentacles in the middle of his body curled and stretched, and even the body showed a slight swelling.

"In fact, I contacted you because my current abilities have reached the limit, unless I rely on external objects to enhance them, but those abilities are not my own after all, I want to break through this boundary, your crystal has made me successful once, so I think you may have other ways to ......"

Zhu Jue undoubtedly overestimated his spiritual endurance, and the conversation with the ancients was extremely draining, Zhu Jue was not one of those cultists who had been thoroughly polluted after all, and as a person who kept his own consciousness, he was barely able to resist at first.

But when the ancients began to mention some special existences, the impact on the spirit became more and more serious, and the crazy whispers that began to sound in his ears made Zhu Jue have to take the initiative to say his goal, hoping to get the desired reply as soon as possible.

"You want to be stronger...... You've reached your limit, the energy in the crystal is so great that you fuse it to strengthen it, and the great race of Isis releases your soul, which changes you...... The soul has no shackles, but your body limits your soul...... We once had great technology that might be able to help you, but time has weakened us, and years of war and betrayal by Shogues have left our civilization in decline again and again...... I can't help you!"

The meaning revealed in the intermittent words made Zhu Jue's heart cold, he didn't think that the ancients had a reason to deceive themselves here.

The meaning of the ancient's words is very clear, Zhu Jue's soul may have transcended the restrictions with the help of the great race, but his body has not been liberated, or his soul has been restricted under the premise that he does not give up the human body.

As a simple example, Zhu Jue's soul is compared to water, then his body is a wooden barrel, his absorption of the energy in the gem and the act of reading ancient books is like adding water to the barrel, adding more or less, the key is that the size of the barrel is fixed, even if the whole sea is poured into it, the amount of water that can be held in the barrel is still only so much.

This is not to say that Zhu Jue is weak, in fact, his current strength has surpassed the vast majority of human beings and even a considerable part of the spiritual pollution source monsters, and even some superior independent races can be defeated by him with the help of special means.

But just defeating the superior independent race obviously can't make Zhu Jue feel at ease, far from it for the time being, the future he saw when he inadvertently released the divination method that night in the clinic, the aura of the black cocoon that seemed to condense all the dark matter, no matter how many times he thought about it, all Zhu Jue could feel was the panic of not knowing what to do.

He could not make any comments on the scene at that time, and could only reminisce over and over again in an indescribable bitterness.

Not even such aftertastes were out of his control, but only appeared in his nightmares.

If it weren't for the perseverance of his own soul, I am afraid that he would have fallen into the same irreparable madness as most people who have seen those unspeakable things.

As for the remarks of the ancients, in the few battles that have used the mutation state so far, Zhu Jue can actually feel it vaguely.

Five years ago, because he was affected by the bear monster, every time he entered the mutation, it was a bit of a life and death game, but today, five years later, this situation is completely reversed.

In his mutated state, he could feel his own ease, as if this was what he was...... It's like the frame of the barrel is raised a little higher, and the water in the barrel will naturally flow more easily.

After regaining his human form, although his spirit will return to normal, Zhu Jue can realize the stagnation of his strength.

And this is the biggest contradiction that Zhu Jue faces.

Perhaps it is also the contradiction faced by all human beings who are infested by unspeakable things, but they do not have the right to choose, and often at the first moment of the contradiction, they lose the control of their soul and body.

But Zhu Jue is different.

Even if he clearly knows in his heart that he can no longer be called a human to some extent, it is absolutely unacceptable for Zhu Jue to give up this identity and live as a monster.

Because he also understands that once he truly accepts this self-knowledge and maintains a mutated form at all times, then one day in the future, his spiritual will may truly transform in this way.

What is the difference between such a person and a mutation after being mentally polluted?

"There's really no way?"

Still asked with some reluctance.

"Our technology can't help you, the souls of the great race of Isis are extremely powerful...... Even if they have to abandon ** for a short time when they carry out some actions, and you can't be their ......"

At this point, the voice of the ancient man became fainter and fainter in Zhu Jue's mind, and it was clear that it was ready to end this conversation.

Zhu Jue opened his mouth, and finally said dryly: "Goodbye, thank you for answering my questions." ”

The figure in mid-air gradually became transparent, and its head and tentacles could be vaguely seen shaking, as if to greet Zhu Jue.

Stroking his forehead, he gasped in disappointment.

Suddenly, the space in front of him shook again!

The figure that should have disappeared completely reappeared!

Migo...... I felt their presence, nearby, and they actually appeared on this planet...... Human, you may still have a chance!"

The voice of the ancients sounded wonderful at this moment!
