Chapter 494: The Weight of the Soul (3rd Watch)
Yorick sat up in shock, as if he had just escaped a nightmare.
Living alone on the Isle of Shadows for hundreds of years, with loneliness and the undead as companions, what kind of nightmare hasn't you had? No amount of more could affect his dead heart.
He originally thought that he could face death very calmly, but when death came, he still hesitated and did not greet it calmly.
If he hadn't grabbed the vine in the first place, what would have happened later wouldn't have become so thrilling.
Yorick looked around blankly, and after seeing Jeno and the others, his mood quickly calmed down, and then he had the heart to think about his injuries.
"You healed my leg?" Yorick saw a patch of pink skin at his ankle, a stark contrast to the thick layer of dead skin around him.
"I should do it." Jeno said.
"It's a pity......" Yorick shook his head, unhappy with the result.
Jeno frowned when he heard this, and Yorick in front of him gave him a feeling of being tired of life, as if he was really longing for death to take him away, which made him very angry.
"There's no shame that you will die on Shadow Island and become an undead, and then the burden of lifting the curse will all fall on my shoulders. It's better to live, and you can help me share the pressure somewhat. ”
"Yes......" Yoric pondered for a moment, and Jeno really said it to his heart.
He was indeed tired of life, and only longed to end his life in a way that was worth living.
Until Geno's arrival, the most valuable thing to do is to lift the curse of Shadow Isle.
And after Jeno's arrival, he realizes that Genno has a better chance of lifting the curse than himself, so his wish is reduced to making himself a suitable stepping stone, dying in a suitable scene, and dying a well-deserved death.
"Don't talk about anything else, let's go quickly, I'm afraid that Lucian will have an accident if I go late."
Jeno couldn't stand the stench and the endless noise coming from below.
He was the first to follow the round staircase to the ceiling of the stacks, and with brute force he broke a gap in it and climbed up to the eaves.
Elise followed, four spider legs against the four corners of the gap, and propped herself up onto the roof.
But the top of this roof is not a safe place, there are not a few evil spirits flying around, and more of them are looming in the black fog in the distance, and their strength is not enough to let them break out of the black fog and travel through the aurora.
An outlier evil spirit rushed over without fear of death, and was struck by Jeno's ghost claw, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the black fog.
Elise then said, "You go and deal with these evil spirits, and I will pull them up." ”
"You're going to find something to do." Jeno sneered, and then concentrated on dealing with the annoying evil spirits like flies.
He is as delicious as a piece of carrion in the eyes of these "flies", but his right hand is comparable to an existence like an "electric mosquito swatter".
Under Elise's "hard-working" work, everyone in the library was moved to the eaves.
Standing here, through the black fog gap broken by the aurora, you can clearly see the moon hanging in the sky.
Clear and bright.
"It's been a long time since I've seen the moon." As soon as Yorick tilted his head, tears flowed from his eyes.
He had never cried once in the darkness of the centuries, but when he saw the moon in his homeland, the tears that he had been stingy for hundreds of years flowed out like the moonlight at his fingertips.
But now is not the time to be sad.
"I'm going to try to move the floating stones, and you'll be left to deal with those evil spirits."
Jeno explained to the people behind him, and Yorick, after listening to the order, directly summoned the Misty Maid.
The Misty Maiden rushed into the heap of evil spirits like bats killing insects, causing them to flee in all directions, much more effective than standing on the roof and waiting for the evil spirits to pounce.
After confirming that everything was safe, Jeno asked the Hex core to activate the force field.
He first applied force to the side of the ruins of the library, but could barely push the tower-like structure.
So he could only hope and find a large floating stone that could be pushed as a platform to carry people to the cliff a hundred meters away.
After a while, his gaze fell on a stone wall more than ten meters away.
The stone wall was slanted and frozen in the air, a little steep, but fortunately it was large enough for several of them to stand on it together.
To get to the stone wall, you have to jump on a few nearby boulders to get close enough to the stone wall, and then slowly move it back with force.
Jeno could have done the job, but with a better candidate around him, he stepped down to make way for Hyun.
"Elise, it's your turn to put on a show, it's what you do best." Jeno directly named Elise, who was standing in the crowd and cowered with her spider legs, who could only walk up to her with a bitter face after hearing it.
"It's not that hard, you just have to jump over the floating stones one by one, and then use the spider silk to pull the stone wall back."
"It's easy to say." Looking at the group of undead waiting for the meal to be served, Elise felt her skin go numb like pins and needles, and she couldn't help but mutter.
"Are spiders also afraid of heights?" Jeno's face was visibly covered in frost.
"Hmph, you'll call me. Real spiders don't understand what you're saying. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, before Jeno could catch her and clean up, Elise leaped onto a floating rock with her spider legs.
Her movements were graceful and light, landing silently, and even the floating stones at the landing did not appear to float significantly.
Then she leaped over several floating rocks like a dragonfly, came to the stone wall designated by Jeno, spit out several spider silks to stick it firmly, and dragged it back steadily according to the original method.
Looking at Elise, who had successfully completed the task, Jeno thought to himself that he had indeed chosen the wrong person.
But he didn't quite understand why Elise, who was a prisoner, suddenly dared to talk back to him?
Are you still too gentle? Or did she start breaking the jar when she knew she had decided to take them to death?
Watching Elise return to the roof of the stack, the stone wall was also dragged closer, and Jeno commanded several people to climb the stone wall.
Since he didn't know the weight of the stone wall, he could only let people climb the stone wall in order of weight from light to heavy.
What he didn't expect was that the lightest of the few was Elise, and Jinx, who was holding the sapling, was second, followed by Sarah, then himself, Yorick, and finally the Demon Spirit......
When Oriana made the demon spirit, she didn't have any light materials such as carbon fiber to use, and it is estimated that she herself did not expect the demon spirit to be so heavy.
"If Ledros and they are still around, the lightest one is definitely not Elise!" Jinx told the truth, but everyone listened to it as a joke.
Who cares about the weight of a ghost, after all, the weight of a soul is only twenty-one grams.

ps:The number of subscriptions to the last fifty chapters is no more than five hundred.,This chapter about the previous chapters is almost zero.,The addition of 81,000 words per day is about the same as the 4,000-word update before the website rectification.,There is no fresh blood injected at all......
Maybe a good recommendation will get better, but it may also be impossible to wait for a recommendation, and a thousand of them will write a four hundred of Yazi, doubting the ...... in life.
But this book will definitely be finished, because it made me understand a truth: the explosion should be as soon as possible, and when it was first put on the shelves, it would be like this! (Angry to the table)
This is even more of a cash code, so I will complain, good night.
