Chapter Twenty-Nine: As You Wish
The fire shone brightly in the lobby of the Qin family's old mansion, and the corpses left behind by those dark puppets after they were killed had been thrown out of the lobby at this time, and several people were gathered around Xing Tianyu, waiting for his answer. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xing Tianyu had a contemplative look on his face, sitting silently in front of the fire, quietly thinking about something, and just when Xiao Zhen couldn't help but want to break the silence, Xing Tianyu finally spoke.
"First of all, I want to say that some of what I am going to say next is a fact that has already happened, and some is my personal speculation, believe it or not, it is completely up to you to decide."
After he said this, he paused slightly, and then continued: "The Book of the Otherworld has been in my hands for three years, however, I really haven't performed the summoning ceremony, three years ago, after the Daqingshan incident, in the small hotel where I was resting halfway, Qin Ming handed over the Book of the Otherworld to me for safekeeping, and now, it is on my body." Xing Tianyu said, taking out the book of the Otherworldly World from his satchel.
As soon as this book appeared, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, Xiao Zhen and Ning Wenrui were greedy, vigilant, and tangled complex dark colors, while the others, more curious, they didn't know what the Book of Otherworldly Beings meant, they just thought it looked quite strange.
Xing Tianyu ignored everyone's gazes, he continued: "The reason why Qin Ming gave me the Book of the Otherworld is because I can restrain my desires, he thinks that no matter if you leave the Book of the Otherworld, any of the three of you, the ultimate holder will not be able to help but perform the summoning ritual and kill the driver, so he gave the book to me.
In fact, I wanted to destroy the Book of Otherworlds at the beginning, but no matter what, in the end, I still couldn't make up my mind, and despite this, I also kept my agreement with Qin Ming and did not perform the summoning ceremony again. β
Xing Tianyu said here and sighed, "I originally thought that I would keep it like this until the news of Qin Ming's death came.
From the moment I heard the news of Qin Ming's death, I realized that it was likely that a new crisis had arrived, Qin Ming's death might not be just an accident, but I wasn't sure of this at that time, and maybe from the bottom of my heart, I still had a bit of luck, I hope this is just my cranky thoughts, but from the various signs that have happened so far, it seems that things are indeed as I thought, there is a person, or an organization, who wants to seize the Book of the Otherworld, and Qin Ming's death is obviously done by this person or organization.
Relatively speaking, I think the possibility of an organization is a bit higher because it is very difficult for one person to do so many things.
After they killed Qin Ming, they didn't find the Book of the Otherworld, so they naturally targeted the people Qin Ming had known in the past three years, that is, these people who came to the funeral today, they sent invitations to everyone, inviting us to attend the funeral, I suspected that this funeral would be a trap at that time, but as I said before, even if I knew that this might be a trap, I had to come, otherwise, I would not be able to feel at ease, and although I could hide for a while, But I can't hide for the rest of my life, and if I wait for the other party to come to the door, I will have to face the threat of this organization alone.
So here I am, still hoping in my heart that it was just my speculation, or that if this organization appeared directly, I might give them the Atlas Book, and I didn't plan to use it anyway, and if I could break the bank, then it wasn't impossible to hand it over.
However, it turned out that all my fears turned out to be true, and not only did the organization intend to wipe us out, but they didn't intend to communicate with us at all, and they just prepared a trap for us. β
Speaking of this, Ning Wenrui suddenly frowned and said, "Wait a minute, if this organization is really plotting the Book of the Otherworld, and they can drive these otherworldly creatures, obviously they have some ability, then why didn't they do it directly?" β
Xing Tianyu smiled slightly, "It's very simple, they are afraid, afraid that the holder of the Book of the Otherworld has carried out the summoning ritual in the past three years, and has gained great power through the summoning ceremony, after all, no one knows what will happen in these three years, and it is difficult for ordinary people to resist the temptation of the Book of the Otherworld, and if a person holds the Book of the Otherworld for three years and is not killed, then it is likely that he should have gained great power, so they dare not appear directly, which may be our biggest advantage."
This group of people didn't dare to do it themselves, so they could only get some otherworldly creatures to make trouble for me, according to the characteristics of those monsters before, I deduced that it should be shadow creatures, the biggest feature of shadow creatures is that they are difficult to control, I think their plan should be like this, first use these shadow creatures as a temptation, if those shadow creatures kill us, then they can naturally wait for dawn to pick up the corpses, if we can survive the attack of the shadow creatures, It shows that we have a certain strength, and their temptation will be successful.
They may drive more monsters to attack us, or they may ambush us in the way out of town, but one thing is for sure, at least until dawn, we don't need to worry about these people coming to us, just deal with the shadow creatures, it's a safe time, and we have to make the most of it.
Xiao Zhen listened, but asked, "How to use it?" β
Xing Tianyu snorted coldly, and a trace of absoluteness flashed on his face: "What else can I do, since they are afraid that we have used the Book of Otherworlds to gain power, then we can only do what they want, since we will definitely not be able to hide, then it is better to come and make a break with them."
Obviously, the organization that killed Qin Ming obviously also has some supernatural abilities, but judging from the fact that they only drive some creatures in the shadow world, rather than more powerful monsters, their strength is also relatively limited, if we can obtain a certain strength as soon as possible, there is still a certain chance of winning, so we must use the Book of Otherworlds to obtain enough strength before dawn to deal with the next troubles, to deal with those enemies who killed Qin Ming and wanted to kill us. β
ββββββ Dividing Lineββββββ
[Roshanda World: Also known as the Shadow World, Shadow World, Roshanda World is a single material world, and the only component of this world is a substance called shadow energy or shadow energy, a very peculiar energy.
Through the observation of the creatures in the shadow world, we can probably infer the specific situation of the shadow world.
The world of Roshanda is an empty and absolutely dark world without a trace of light, in this boundless darkness is full of shadow energy, and in this huge world of shadow energy, some unique creatures have been bred, they are shadow creatures, due to the completely different way of dividing the creatures in the real world, and the appearance of shadow creatures often has no fixed form, the categories of these shadow creatures cannot be effectively counted and distinguished at present.
Shadow creatures of different sizes may belong to different species, but it is also possible that individuals of the same species are of different sizes.
There is reason to believe that shadow creatures have entered our world since ancient times, and in ancient times when there was no historical record, shadow creatures roamed our world.
In the records of human history, the earliest can be dated to the time of ancient Egypt. It was also in the same era that summoners discovered the existence of the shadow world and began to try to summon and control the shadow creatures, but overall, the summoner's use of the shadow creatures was relatively unsuccessful, and the shadow creatures were difficult to control, often killing and occupying the human body in large quantities, causing unimaginable harm, and for a long time, people even thought that the shadow creatures were a low-level life that had no intelligence at all and acted entirely on instinct.
Shadow creatures have plagued our world for thousands of years or more, but 2,500 years ago, around 500 B.C., all of these mysterious creatures suddenly disappeared.
Since then, only occasionally a few daring summoners will summon some shadow creatures from the shadow world to enslave them and drive them to complete their ulterior secrets.
Note 1: Habits of Shadow Creature Creatures:
Although the creatures in the shadow world cannot be effectively classified, the relatively uniform characteristics of the creatures in the shadow world are that the creatures in the shadow world are generally photoapathic and will be weakened or even decomposed under the irradiation of strong light, and most of the creatures in the shadow world are afraid or disgusted with light, among which sunlight has the best killing effect on them, but they are less sensitive to cold light. During the day, shadow creatures tend to hide in deep caverns, and some people with sensitive habits can sense that there is a faint peeping eye in the dark caverns, but most of the time, people will only see it as a psychological effect. Perhaps this is also the reason why the creatures of the shadow world were unable to occupy our world in the end, and even left a relatively clear record in history.
Note 2: Dangers of Shadow Creature Creatures:
Shadow creatures will try to occupy the bodies of all living beings to avoid the damage of external rays, and in the process, cause irreversible damage to the occupied, while absorbing all the energy in the life body, and finally completely kill the lifeform, making it an inanimate [carrier].
Since shadow creatures cannot be damaged by physical attacks, the presence of shadow creatures in areas where humans gather tends to cause a lot of casualties and panic.
Some claim that it is most likely that humans have evolved an instinct for fear of darkness because of their fear of shadow creatures.
Note 3: How to drive and control Shadow Creatures: Although the physiology of Shadow Creatures cannot be analyzed, there is still reason to believe that Shadow Creatures are intelligent and can use their biological characteristics to control them relatively simply, but it should be noted that due to the unique nature of Shadow Creatures, Shadow Creatures will occupy or kill all living creatures around them, including (especially) their summoners, whenever they have the chance.
Note 4: Shadow Energy and Dark Matter: There is currently no clear evidence of a direct relationship between shadow energy and dark matter.
The above is an excerpt from Book 10 of the Book of Otherworlds, about the world of Roshanda. γ
