Chapter 377: Soul Locking Instead of Injury
Agnes walked back to the cave and sat down on the edge of the "bed", saying that it was a bed, but in fact it was just some animal skins and fluff stacked on the stone, and it could not be compared with the luxurious bed in the Demon King City.
Agnes looked at Felik lying quietly on the bed, her fingers gently brushed Felik's emaciated face, rubbing the dry skin, Agnes's gaze swept over Felik's bare chest, on which was a horrible scar, faintly bloody, but finally healed.
Looking at the other party's smooth and undulating chest, the corners of Agnes' mouth rose slightly.
Felik and himself are both lucky to have survived.
At that last moment, I grabbed his hand and actually teleported with him.
"You guy, you really made your own decisions, and you actually put such a trick on me." Agnes said to the unconscious Felik.
But now she was extremely glad that if Felik hadn't done that, she would have died by now, and if she hadn't set up a soul-locking technique on Felik, then Felik would have died after carrying the fatal wound for her.
There is a certain number in the dark, and the decision of the two to make their own decisions just saved both sides who should have died.
But now the situation has not improved, and the situation faced by the two men is equally dire.
Now it is a fairly hidden residence in the Demon Realm, and it is also the secret base of Agnes and Felik when they were children, and it was discovered by the two of them together, and Agnes did not expect that the teleportation destination set by Felik would be here.
But apparently he was well prepared, and there were many precious potions in this place for healing his injuries, thanks to which Felik was able to survive.
The Soul Locking Technique allowed Felik's dead soul to remain alive, and the precious potion allowed his body to be reused.
But when Felik's soul left the body, Agnes's injuries were even more serious, and she couldn't even afford the price of making her soul conscious, so she could only barely keep Felic's spirit body from dissipating.
But it was all worth it, Felik survived, and for Agnes, as long as Felik survived, it was all worth it.
Since then, half a month has passed.
Now the power is completely in the hands of the dark envoy, although this place is very remote, after all, it is still in the demon world, and it is still very likely to be found, so it is better to send Felik to the outside world, and the guy in the outside world will not be able to search arbitrarily, all races in the outside world are quite hostile to the demons, and if the dark envoy wants to search, it must be difficult.
Agnes had to think about more, and time was running out for her.
She returned to the entrance of the cave and sat down on a raised rock, her fingers drawing circles in the small puddles that had accumulated beside her, blurring her reflection in it.
The originally smooth and supple silver hair became dry and dull, and the beautiful face quickly became haggard in the past few days, the heavy dark circles under her eyes made her look like she was wearing smoky makeup, the whites of her eyes were bloodshot, the fair skin had lost the feel similar to porcelain, and there was a sense of retention when her fingers stroked.
Open the five fingers, the palm lines are deep, and the fingers are as slender as if they will break if they are touched lightly.
The changes in her body, Agnes knows best, she knows that her limit has arrived, as a hybrid of angels and demons, her physique should be stronger than ordinary demons, and it should not be difficult to live for hundreds of years, and now, she is only twenty-five years old.
How long can I live?
A year? Or two years?
Agnes didn't know.
This is the price of the soul locking instead of injury technique, it is not easy to maintain the soul from dispersing, if it is so easy, then the soul will not be so precious, she is the demon king, even a powerful life form like her, she feels that the price of soul locking and injury is too expensive.
Felik died twice outside, probably shortening her life span by a few decades, and this time it lasted too long and consumed too much life force.
Moreover, the power of the arrogant advance is still slowly being repaid.
"Anyway...... Don't let him know just yet. ”
Agnes muttered to herself as she stared at the streaks of rain pulled out of the edge of the hole.
She sighed, for Felik to survive under the Dark Oracle, he had to gain more power.
If she remembered correctly, Felik's body was taken by the Holy See, and it was really not easy to retrieve the body from the Holy See, but only by retrieving the body could he have a bargaining chip against the dark oracle.
By the way, let's help him engrave runes all over his body first, Agnes thinks that this idea is good, but the flesh carving spell is very convenient for him to use, and if he uses it for Felik, he must consume a lot of mana.
Agnes frowned, thought about it, and made a decision.
……
A few days later.
When Felik woke up, Agnes was sitting by the campfire handling the flesh of an unknown monster.
Her skinning technique was quite rough, but the speed was fast, and the grooves in the rock wall next to her were already stuffed with food, and the potions were neatly arranged, and the air was filled with a strange smell of potion, which was not unpleasant, but definitely not good.
Felik barely straightened up, his chest tight, like a man had struck him with a hammer.
Looking down, the wound that pierced the heart had turned into a horrible and ugly scar.
Anyway, he survived after all, which he never expected, and he couldn't think of how he survived.
He opened his mouth to speak, but found that his mouth was full of blood.
Agnes, who was splitting the corpse of the demonic beast, made a move, and found that Felik had woken up, silently stepped forward with several bottles of potion, put them to Felik's mouth, and carefully fed him to drink.
Felik noticed that one of the vials was blood, and with a casual glance, he noticed a bloody scab on Agnes' left wrist.
After drinking the potion, his strength seems to have recovered a lot.
Agnes ...... How did I survive? ”
"You? I dragged you along with me before teleporting. ”
Felik tried to keep his breathing as smooth as he could, took a few breaths, and nodded.
"I see, fortunately, part of my soul is in Belina."
Hearing this, Agnes frowned: "Belina? ”
"Well, my companion, with the Enma Sword, a part of my soul has been divided, and on her, there have been several times before, even though she has died, but her soul has not dissipated, probably because the part of Belina is still quite stable. This time it's thanks to her. ”
After Felik finished speaking, he found that Agnes seemed to be in a daze, and he gently pushed the other party before the other party came back to his senses.
"Huh? Oh, I see, there is a way to divide the soul, it's really unheard of, but...... I don't think the soul split has the effect of maintaining overall stability. Agnes said.
"But now it's proven, isn't it?"
"Probably."
