"I see. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A familiar voice sounded behind me.

"I seem to have slept for a long time, ah, have you become like this?"

I turned around, and behind me was Xie Yan, who was dressed in a black robe. He looked at me at this time and seemed to understand something.

"Xie Yan...... You ......"

"Don't worry, I know you have a lot of questions for me." Xie Yan held out his right hand in front of me in a palm shape and motioned for me to pause.

"But let me finish first." Xie Yan spoke.

At this time, Xie Yan is not at all like him at the time of the Gear Rebellion, but is closer to what I looked like when I first met him.

Heroic and resourceful.

"I feel like I've had a long dream, in which I killed a lot of people, ruined Gear City, and killed Molten Iron Hime." Xie Yan stared at the endless void, "But I know that this is not a dream, and what I am doing in the dream is true. ”

"I can't imagine how dark I would be, so filled with hatred...... But my sin was committed, and I was willing to pay for it with death. Xie Yan looked at his body.

"But I'm not dead." Xie Yan looked at me.

"It's you." He said, taking a step towards me.

"It was your blow that killed me, freeing my soul and the black mist inside me." He walked up to me.

"In that short period of liberation, I felt the power of the so-called 'source', although it was only for a few seconds, but I still can't forget that feeling."

"That's the power that represents deletion, the source of the power of the taboo." He raised his right hand and looked at it, "It once ruled over me so that I can still feel the remnants of the Origin on my fingertips. ”

"And you." He looked at me again.

"You have that power, too."

This sentence, it seems that I heard the chief say it.

"And it is this power of yours that has enabled me to be forgiven." As he spoke, he even bowed to me.

"My power? Origin? "I was a little dazed, but not surprised by it.

"That's right, 'absorption', embracing all things, the confluence of hundreds of rivers, and the flow of rivers into the sea." Xie Yan said, "Your Origin Ability is absorption. ”

Absorb? So the reason why Xie Yan is here is because I absorbed his soul?

"At the moment of my death, your origin ability absorbed my soul, because at that time you did not have the consciousness to actively control the origin, and you had no self-awareness of your ability, so you would only passively absorb some escaped data, such as the soul of the dead."

"If you can understand your abilities and use them on your own initiative, you will be able to absorb more than you know." Xie Yan's eyes are deep, and at this time, he is like an omniscient wise man in my eyes.

"Why do you know this, you were just an ordinary warrior when you were alive." I asked.

No, like Elise, he connected to the system's database.

"Have you forgotten that I was also the one who once possessed the power of the Origin." Xie Yan smiled, "People with the power of the origin can sense each other. ”

I see...... So that day Xia was powerless to find Xie Yan.

"So, can Xia Fuli sense me?" I looked at my hands, and I had no idea what power I was carrying.

"Theoretically, yes." Xie Yan nodded.

"Your own origin needs to be discovered by yourself, so let's focus on the current problem." Xie Yan stopped the conversation and looked back at the endless void.

That's right, I'm still in the predicament of being 'taken offline'.

I suspect now that I am in the same situation as I was the last time I was forcibly pulled into data space by the Chief, my body is left outside, to be slaughtered.

If that's the case, I'll probably never be able to get rid of the name of a wanted person for the rest of my life.

"Your current situation is the same as the situation I had when I fused with the black mist, and now the black mist has taken over your body, deleting the channel for you to log in again."

Xie Yan's first sentence directly overturned all my previous subjective conjectures.

Black fog?

I see, I see.

I understand.

The moment I killed Xie Yan, the black mist also took advantage of the situation to merge into my body.

In this way, all the things that were ordered to carrion and absorb the remnants of the plague can be explained clearly.

It's not that I'm doing it, it's that the Black Mist is using my hand to restore its power to itself.

When the accumulation of strength was ripe, he rushed out and took my body in one fell swoop when I was weakened and dying.

So Xie Yan wasn't himself at that time?

It is the basis of the black fog.

Wait a minute.

That is to say...... I'm also the same person I was when Xie Yan looked like I was?

Oops, noos. If Black Mist kills everywhere in my name, then my guilt rating really can't go down, and I really have only one way left to reset my account.

"Okay, so do you have any good suggestions?" I asked, since Xie Yan could say such a thing, then he must have a way.

Xie Yan smiled, seemingly a little relaxed.

"What is this place, do you know?" He asked rhetorically.

"Yes...... A corner of the game's interior? "I repeated what the chief had told me.

He nodded, then shook his head again.

"Yes, but not entirely."

"This is the data graveyard, where all the junk data deleted by the game is stored." He grabbed a handful of data streams floating in the air and tossed them away.

"Therefore, since it is deleted, the data that has been deleted by the source should also exist in this place."

"In other words." Xie Yan paused. "This is the reverse passage that leads directly to the source of the black fog."

"How the black mist seized your body, you will take it back by the same way!"

"Treat others the way they do!"

……

The Misty Believer suddenly felt the tightness in his neck lighten, and was tossed aside by the Rim Night.

Just as he was surprised at why he had been released, he looked up and saw a strange scene.

The edge of the long night was choking his neck, and the green tendons on his face burst out, as if he was fighting with himself.

"Damn, how did he do it! I obviously blocked the passage for him to go online! ”

"Give me the things that should go back to the garbage station!"

"Uhhhh!!h

Countless black mist erupted from the edge of Long Night's body in all directions, instantly covering all the space around him.

That's right...... This black fog is the source of fear! The Misty Believer quickly got to his feet, away from the black mist's reach.

"Oh no, Xuanyin!" He suddenly thought of the metaphysical inscription that had been thrown away just now, and his eyes immediately searched for her figure.

Finished.

The place where she had just fallen was completely filled with black mist.

And all the places that the black mist passed through were desolate.

By the way, the plague...... This is the plague entity that caused the desolation. I don't know exactly what's going on, but that's what it looks like at the moment. The Misty Believer thought.

But Xuanyin ...... What happened to her? The Misty Believers couldn't help but worry.

Suddenly, he noticed a faint flash of white-gold light in the black mist.

"Keen awareness!" His eyes widened.

It was the shield of the Light, and within the shield was ......

Autumn Frost Moon and Metaphysical Engraving!
