Chapter 123: A Key Opens a Lock

Hearing Sam's words, everyone couldn't help but sigh, it was really a big world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Atlantis is a place full of magical gods and demons, Piger, who is a Night Master, has never heard of such a thing. From man to beast or from beast to man, in his view, there must be a process of rebirth to be realized. However, now Betty's experience completely shatters his original understanding.

This kind of change was never taught by the mentor at the time, Auberta Shufen.

"You just said that it became like this after eating the flesh of the monster?" Anne is better at getting to the point.

"It's probably a monster...... "Sem scratched his head and pulled out a few green scales from his pocket, "I was sleeping, Betty's own prey." When I woke up, I saw that it had stuffed something into its mouth, but there was nothing on the ground except a puddle of congealed blood and some scales. Followed by...... And that's what it turned out to be. ”

Sam describes it very simply, and he does a great job of skimming out some important details. Anne was about to ask, but heard Alice, who had been watching Betty next to her, shouting, "Come and see, it's changed!" ”

Sure enough, in the surprised eyes of everyone, a ball of holy light began to appear on Betty, who was lying behind Pije, and then the entire body slowly shrank in the dazzling holy light. The process is like melting a body into a semi-fluid shape and then shaping a new form according to a model.

In just a few seconds, Betty in the form of a little girl reverted back to the stupid cat she had before, and her whole body shrank several times, but she still maintained the movement of lying on Piger's back.

"Meow!"

As if sensing that everyone was looking at her strangely, Betty took on a cold expression, stretched on Piger's back, sat up, scratched her ears with her paws, and then jumped three times onto the couch next to her, curled up in the corner and did not move.

This set of actions was done smoothly, but it made others look confused. Because they found that the stupid cat did not jump on all four paws as before, but only used two hind paws, like a huge spring.

"I know you're surprised. It wasn't like that in the beginning. "When it first became human, it was used to using both hands and feet, and then it finally changed to two feet on the ground, but then it became a cat and couldn't change it back." ”

Piger's attention had shifted from Betty's body to the strange scales. The scales that are only the size of the cap of the little finger of a human emitted a crystal clear green light, because the light in the current room is very weak, but the small scales are much brighter than the surrounding light, which shows that this green light is not caused by reflection, but carries some kind of fluorescent substance.

"Rare."

Anne didn't know when she was standing behind Piger, and said quietly.

"Any creature will hide its body in the darkness as much as possible in order to avoid predators as much as possible, but this kind of creature can glow, which is simply telling the predators where they are. To be able to survive in the evolutionary chain of survival of the fittest until now is already remarkable. ”

"In addition, changing from an animal to a human form is certainly not a simple matter. On the surface, Betty became human because she ate that kind of thing, but in fact, it will be related to many conditions, such as the cat's physique, the strength characteristics of the light race, and so on. ”

Hearing Anne's analysis, Piger felt that the flame of hope that had just been ignited was almost extinguished. He had planned to find the animal that Betty had eaten based on the characteristics of the scales, and perhaps perhaps use it to regain his human body. But if it's like what Anne said, maybe I'll never have a chance.

Anne, the fallen angel, looked at the sullen big dog in front of her and smiled slightly. When he turned his head, he found a dying turtledove lying on the floor. The two claws of the little turtledove had been turned purple by Betty's little hands, and its head was drooping, and its body was motionless, as if it was about to die.

"What a poor little fellow."

Anne crouched down and stretched out a slender finger and touched the turtledove's body. A faint black mist slipped out of Anne's fingertips and wrapped around the turtledove's body. In less than a second, the little turtledove's head slowly drooped.

"It's like this, it's always painful to live." Anne muttered, "I've relieved your pain. In return, your soul will be used by me. ”

In fact, for a gadget like a turtledove, it is not so much the soul that controls its activities as it is instinct. Whatever it is, under the influence of Anne's curse, it will become part of the power of the night.

A few seconds later, the turtledove, which had already closed its eyes, suddenly opened its eyes, spread its wings and flew away. A long black mist was pulled out behind him, which quickly dissipated.

For Anne, such a small trick had little real effect. This is not a resurrection, but a re-injection of the soul of the turtledove that has been added to the curse of the night. The turtledove's body is still under the control of this spirit, but at the same time it will naturally decay and deteriorate.

Anne looked at the turtledove "zombie" in the distance, and said as if talking to herself: "The system of origin power is very tight. No matter how far our energy level rises, there will ultimately be no true resurrection. I am afraid that changes related to life can only be accomplished with the help of the power of the source. ”

Pije understood some of the meaning of Annie's words: "You mean to say that the reason why Betty has that change is not because of eating the flesh of some demonic beast, but because of the effect of the origin power?" ”

Anne shook her head slightly: "You can look at it differently. Perhaps that little demonic beast is precisely a way for the origin power to change the characteristics of life, or a kind of key. When the Creator created all things, there were always some loopholes, some of which were left unintentionally and some of which were left intentionally. Betty only accidentally picked up a key, and this key was the one that opened the door to her form. ”

Everything is a coincidence.

Looking at the stupid cat curled up in the corner of the sofa, Pigger suddenly realized that the sentence was really true, "Silly cats have stupid blessings". Of course, this is only a conclusion he has drawn from his own point of view. In fact, in the eyes of Betty, the stupid cat, it is better to eat a bag of small yellow croaker than to learn to change into another look.
