"No, no, no, in our original plan, as a clone, you would not have any self and soul, so as you gradually master the abilities that belong to me, such as Cangyan and reality reset, you will gradually become me...... But this plan comes to naught with your self-awareness. Xiao Yao explained, but there was no pity between the words, and there was even some relief.

"Then you ......" The Phantom opened his mouth, a little unsure of what to say.

"Then Xiao Yao refused to brutally erase your soul," Xiao Am said bluntly, "He proposed that you become another personality in a similar way to me, and find the right opportunity to build a new body in the future...... After this experience, no matter who transferred at that time, we were very skilled in the new body. ”

Sure enough, Xiao Yao is really a good person, he would rather delay the time of his resurrection, and he is also trying his best to ensure that everyone around him can be happy...... It's just a pity, if he can be decisively cruel and simply erase himself, then will he be able to resist Passerby 2 and save everyone after returning from resurrection?

The Phantom doesn't know which one would be better, because there are no ifs in this world.

"Those things don't matter anymore, things really change beyond the imagination of all of us...... I'm really sorry. Xiao Yao lowered his head silently, if everything could happen again, he would find a way to protect Zuo Yurui no matter what, he must find a way to save everyone no matter what.

"Well, I see, I don't blame you." The Phantom nodded slightly, "Let's get started." ”

"Get started...... But have you really made your decision? You should know very well what it would mean to your consciousness if I were to be resurrected with your body right now. Xiao Yao stared at the eyes of his clone, in the distant time of his previous life, he had a very loving brother, and now he saw the shadow of his brother in the phantom.

"You will die immediately, your soul is too weak, it will be wiped out the moment Xiao Yao's consciousness awakens, and it is too late for us to even want to protect it," Xiao Ash explained, Xiao Yao's consciousness has taken on some old colors, which is almost overwhelmingly strong, "If your self-consciousness can grow for another year, then you can become another personality and live."

”

"It doesn't matter, I'm going to die anyway." The phantom looked at his hands, in this mental world, all three of them appeared in the form of soul bodies, and he could clearly see that his body was fading away little by little, which meant that his soul had irreversibly dissipated.

"Although dissipation is irreversible, it can be frozen. As long as you survive, you still have a chance to recover, but then the body will be in suspended animation for the time being. Xiao Ash poked the phantom's head with his finger, "Xiao Yao and I have discussed, it is necessary for us to leave the choice to you." Rest assured, no matter when Xiao Yao is resurrected, he will definitely kill Passerby No. 2 with his own hands! ”

"However, Passerby 2 must die now!" The phantom shouted out of control, he was starting to get a little tired of Xiao Yao's good feelings, he had already lost all the motivation to live, he had already ...... No sympathy is needed.

"I'm sorry," Xiao Yao pulled Ash away and stared into the phantom's eyes, "We took the liberty of it...... But in any case, I'm going to leave the final choice to you. ”

The phantom's voice weakened a little: "My choice, aren't you still clear?" Without her, the world doesn't mean much to me anymore...... I'm going to stay with her, and aren't you someone else who needs protection? This body was originally prepared for your return, take it and take revenge on the Lantern Shadow Family! ”

"Hmm...... Good along the way...... Today, Passerby No. 2 will definitely die. Xiao Yao clenched his fists and solemnly swore an oath.

"It's all right, you said, death is just a great long sleep...... Maybe in another world, I still have a chance to take her hand and say sorry......" The Phantom smiled and stepped back, his dead soul finally coming to an end.

Under the illumination of the sun that never falls in the world of mental images, the soul of the clone boy with a relieved face dissipates little by little with the wind, like thousands of fireflies, dotting the whole world.

He's not a substitute for anyone, he's a phantom, he's an ordinary boy who once swore a hundred years of friendship with the girl he loves.

Xiao Yao slowly stretched out his hand and grasped the little fluorescence that was drifting away, and grief poured into his heart like a tide. After a long time, he raised his head, and his eyes seemed to hide a roaring dragon.

……

Farewell in the world of mental imagery

It's been a long time, but in the real world it's only a moment.

Outside, the body slowly moved through the street like a walking corpse, and the gray creature lying on the shoulder of the body turned into a swirling pale blue flame, blending into the body little by little.

The energy tumbling in the boy's body became thicker and thicker, and as he advanced, even the elements scattered between heaven and earth began to dance wildly, and the pale blue flames fluctuated like the breath of a giant beast, and the tongues of fire were entwined and twisted, forming an indescribable nightmare.

- Xiao Yao, that kid left without remorse, we have to take over this mess...... It's true, too hastily leads to less than 70% of the fit between the soul and the body, and the mastery of the reality reset ability is even more superficial.

- But I'm stronger than before, and I've almost digested the power of the Nameless Mist in my body. We've been together for so long, can you have a little more confidence in me?

- Although your level has increased again during this time, I doubt how much you can perform. Don't just be resurrected and killed by the enemy, I may not be able to save you next time...... By the way, how many times have I saved you so far?

- I can't count them...... But thank you so much, thank you so much, for having you along the way.

- Ahem, okay, stop it, don't talk like an old husband and wife, I'm just trying to protect myself.

- You're blushing.

- Have you resurrected your itchy skin and looked for a pump?

……

The black clouds overwhelmed the city, and at some point the entire city was shrouded in thick dark clouds, and among the dark clouds, there was a pale blue light flashing from time to time.

Passerby 2 looked at the sky in surprise, he knew that an extremely terrifying being was awakening, but he didn't want to believe that it would be the return of that person.

"Such a level of power...... Under the head of the family, above the exceptional, there will be no stronger existence......" Passerby No. 2 looked up at the sky as if talking to himself, and could already see that the pale blue figure was undulating in the dark clouds, like an ancient dragon soaring into the sky.

The young man's voice pierced the whole world—

"Passerby No. 2, I'm here to kill you."
