050. Inheritance and inheritance

Sitting still has never been Bruce's style, and he is ready to harness the soul fire to escape as soon as his body is shattered.

He knew that the soul fire could exist apart from the physical body, and if necessary, he could forcibly occupy the physical body of a creature after leaving the Frost Holy Crown, and continue the unfinished path of the Chosen One in another identity.

However, the soul fire, which had been very delicate since it was ignited, was like a dead thing at the moment, ignoring the orders he gave at all, not only did it flee at the first time, but it was still hovering in mid-air, actively emitting the unique fluctuations of the soul fire to attract the attention of another chosen one, as if the consciousness he was attached to the soul fire did not exist at all.

When Talos's soul fire emitted a burst of suction, a mysterious force descended in the underworld, and the soul fire involuntarily threw itself into the body of the four-armed Naga.

In the next second, two equally bright and oily soul fires stood opposite each other in a void.

Bruce knew very well what was going to happen next, and his soul fire would be inherited and absorbed by Talos, just like he had refined his soul before.

The second prince of the Golden Empire subconsciously let out a long sigh, and then found that he was no longer able to complete this difficult action in his current state.

The soul fire was about to be annihilated, but his consciousness was extremely clear, and even the hatred for Talos actually dissipated, and a sense of relief inexplicably rose.

"You won. ”

"Live well, don't die halfway. ”

"Remember to find the most fundamental secret of the soul fire. ”

Receiving the thought from the soul fire, Talos responded, "I will." ”

He didn't guarantee it, and he didn't swear to anyone, because that was his goal in the first place.

One day, he will know the most important secrets, whether it is about soul fire or about the world.

Bear!

The two soul fires fused together in an instant, the huge energy burned fiercely, and the mark and consciousness belonging to Bruce were all wiped out, and the bright yellow flame light illuminated countless voids, faintly radiating from Talos's body.

As if being pulled, two thick clouds of black gas pierced through countless time and space in an instant, descending into the Frost Holy Crown, one with a two-tailed giant crocodile vaguely wrapped in the middle, and a regular dodecahedron vaguely wrapped in the middle, which were the two primordial desires that were sealed by Bruce in the temples of other material planes.

The black smoke swept back and forth in the space imprisoned by the will of Urban I, and the gargoyles, the hunters, and all the other structures except the Iron Knight were swept away by the smoke and submerged into it, and finally the two thick clouds of smoke were entangled with each other into a spiral of smoke and threw into Talos's body.

In the watch world, both the [Gluttony] earthly python and the [jealous] Medusa seemed to feel something, the former slowly winding around one of the steepest peaks in the watch world, and the latter came to the surface, and the snake hair let out a sharp hiss.

The earthly python opened its mouth and inhaled at the sky, and a huge whirlpool immediately appeared in the sky, and spiral-shaped black smoke fell, falling straight into the mouth of the earthly python.

After Talos was promoted to the third rank, the length of the earthly python was more than 120 feet, and now it devoured Bruce's two primordial desires, and its body immediately swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its body length soon reached 150 feet, each scale was the size of an adult's palm, shimmering with metallic luster and shimmering black light.

As usual, what the earthly python devours will be partially fed back into the soul fire, which acts like a sophisticated instrument to process the harvested energy, absorb it partly, and distribute it partly to Medusa.

Cracking sound!

The soul fire exploded, and the soul fire that was originally scattered like a huge fireball was still the size of a fist, clear and transparent, and the color changed from bright yellow to tender yellow.

At the same time, Talos clearly felt that a total of four beliefs crossed the plane and converged on the soul fire, like a trickle of water converging into the sea.

Two of them came from the Afalong and Terra planes that he had descended to earlier, and two from the two material planes that Bruce had descended on.

Even faith can be inherited, Talos had never thought of this before, after all, the four-armed Naga preached the name of Talos, and Bruce must have preached his own name, and now even the faith in other material planes has been inherited, which naturally makes him excited.

You must know that what Talos lacks most now is faith, as long as faith is enough, and the soul fire is strengthened, it is only a matter of time for him to be promoted to the fourth order, and there are almost no inevitable and messy problems such as talent, opportunity, luck or expertise that other professions need to consider.

At present, the premise is that he can smoothly strip the original desire from his body and not be counterattacked to death.

Faith isn't the only thing Talos inherited from Bruce's soul fire, in fact there are three things, one of which is the precious item that makes Talos ecstatic - divine power!

Divine power is one of the sources of power that Talos can use to descend into the plane, and due to the problem of time, there were three copies of the divinity that Talos extracted in the Impasian Plane Arena, and two have been used up so far.

According to Talos's estimate, when he completed the third plane advent and promoted to the fourth order, he had to worry about the source of the power of the fourth plane arrival, and the only place he knew that he could get divine power was probably the astral boundary, where it was said that there was a continent formed by the corpse of the god after the fall of the gods, and there may be divine sparks and divine power left on it.

If he's lucky—knowing how to get to the astral plane, and avoiding the attacks of the gods—he might be able to extract some.

Bruce's last of the divine powers stored in the soul fire gave Talos a new hope that he would not have to worry about before he became an epic knight and a six-armed naga.

As for the last one, it was something that Bruce named the Constructor Skynet, and Talos guessed that it was the same thing as his surface world, which evolved after the soul fire absorbed something.

The construct's Skynet is not a visible web like a spider's web, nor is it an invisible web like a magic web, but a kind of hive consciousness, which allows the inferior constructs to give birth to collective consciousness while maintaining individual thinking after access, and realize information sharing within a certain range.

This is also the fundamental reason why the opponent can anticipate the direction and position of his attack during the battle between Talos and the Gargoyle, and when a group of gargoyles surround him, they have a full view of Talos when looking at him with the help of the constructed Skynet.

Thinking of this, Talos couldn't help but feel a little afraid, fortunately the battle between him and Bruce was intervened by Urban I, otherwise he would have been mercilessly strangled by a group of iron knights once he fell to the ground due to a spell attack.

"I don't know if the Constructor Skynet can be applied to the Three-Eyed Octopus and the Flower Demon. ”

Despite the fruitful harvest, Talos felt a sense of regret because the one thing he wanted most was the way to transform the earthly python and Medusa, which symbolized primordial desires, into incarnations, and there were no other memories, experiences, or pasts about Bruce in the soul fire other than faith, divine powers, and the constructed Skynet.

However, this will Talos did not have time to express regret, considering the arrival of the clergy of the Temple of Order and Knights mentioned by Urban I just now, he immediately opened his eyes after confirming that the absorption was completed.

"You succeeded. Urban I said.

"Yes. Talos nodded, "Just now—"

"In the last illusion, I changed your body and consciousness, if I couldn't see through it and made the decision to kill the other party, then I would die in the end, just a little trick. ”

Although Urban I lightly reduced everything to a trick, in the eyes of Talos, the long-lost city of his body and soul was even more inscrutable.

"What if, neither Bruce nor I were able to see through the last illusion?

"That's right, both of you will die. Yes, I do have a very important secret, important enough to hide part of my consciousness in the Frost Crown at the cost of soul annihilation, but it doesn't have to be the two of you Chosen One, and I hope you understand that. ”

"I see. Talos said seriously.

"Got what?"

Talos didn't like Urban's questioning attitude, but considering that they were barely on the same side and really needed the secrets in each other's hands, he had to answer patiently: "Sometimes you have to prove your worth before you want to get a reward, and now it seems that I am indeed the most qualified person to obtain the Frost Crown and the secret that you sacrificed everything to keep it." ”

Urban I stared at Talos without speaking, until the latter felt numb, and then he said with a strange expression: "No, I just want to say that sometimes it is not a good thing to be too confident and value yourself, a little bit of experience as a person who has come before. ”

Talos: "......"
