Chapter 268: The Eye of the Dead
The so-called Ikeme clan is really a family that lives up to its name.
The family's ability is centered on the "goal", and it has the ability to penetrate the past and the future.
It's just that this kind of ability, like the power of the "ancestor" of the Yaren clan, is not a powerful power that not all future generations can easily inherit.
In order to protect this power, the Ikeme clan began to master the "art of enchantment", and over time, because no one in the family inherited the so-called "Eye of the Dead" for a long time, the impression left on the world gradually became that the Ikeme clan only made good use of the enchantment, nothing more.
It's just that this situation lasted until Ikeme was born, and it finally changed.
Chi Yi, who inherited the "Eye of the Dead", was decisively pushed to the position of the next heir of the head of the family after his power awakened.
But his father was happy, but more worried. He didn't know whether it would be a blessing or a curse for this long-forgotten power to reappear in the world.
It may be better to let this power be forgotten in people's minds forever than to be coveted by foreign races or other forces.
After this decision, Chi Muyi's father has been cultivating Chi Yi as an ordinary heir, and he has devoted himself to the use and study of the "Enchantment Technique", which makes Chi Yi's control of the enchantment different from ordinary people's strength.
Not only that, in order to let him appear in front of the world as little as possible, Chi Yi's father volunteered to push his son out in order to let him appear in front of the world as little as possible, and after learning that the Yunyin Association had found a new puppeteer, he volunteered to push his son out, and in the name of arming the enchantment, he lived an isolated job of monitoring the puppeteer.
However, I don't know if it backfired, or if it was destined to happen, and it was beyond human power to reverse it.
As Chi Yi became more and more familiar with Mercury, Mercury's stubbornness, concentration, loneliness and helplessness were all seen in his eyes and remembered in his heart.
No one knows better than him the void in Mercury's heart that cannot be filled.
But because of this, Chi Yi, who was originally lonely and cowardly, gradually began to change himself.
No matter how this silent girl, who seemed to be about the same age as herself, snubbed or even ignored his existence, Ji Yidu couldn't take his eyes off her.
Because, mercury has already unconsciously become his spiritual pillar, and even an existence like white moonlight......
At that time, the mercury obsession and the creation of dolls had even reached a state of madness.
After learning that the puppets of the first puppeteer can be completely indistinguishable from real people, she is even more crazy to follow the steps of the first puppeteer.
For Mercury, she has erased all traces in this world, and she has long been destined for this life, and it is impossible to stand in the sun and have the life of an ordinary person.
But she didn't want to be lonely for the rest of her life.
Therefore, she devoted everything she had to create a doll that is no different from a human being, with independent thinking ability and feelings, to accompany herself and become her only remaining sustenance in this world.
She worked day and night making dolls and destroying them.
Recraft, Rebuild......
No one knows how much she did and how much she discarded.
It's just that those dolls are the same after all, but they are just a cold shell that has been injected into the spirit body, and only knows how to obey orders and protect their masters.
That night, Mercury had consumed too much spiritual power and passed out in the studio.
Until Chi Yi found out and sent her back to her room to rest, she still held the spatula in her hand and refused to let go......
That night, the first thing she said to Chi Yi when she woke up was, "Am I going to die...... Will you leave this world silently and without anyone knowing......"
Chi Yi was silent, and although he didn't say anything, after Mercury fell asleep, he gently took the spatula from her hand and put it in his pocket. Then came alone under the promenade of the courtyard, and for the first time it was activated, and the power that my father had been forbidden to use......
The "Eye of the Dead" is a power that can briefly touch the past and the future, but the consumption of spiritual power and the side effects on the body are extremely large, and few people have used it among the heirs of the Ikeme clan in the past generations.
And in the futuristic scene as far as Chi Yi could see, Mercury died alone in a pile of lifeless dolls, as she had thought before.
The dolls were scattered around her, and not only that, but the surrounding scene was full of war.
Demon envoys, night people, and all kinds of demons and beasts are confused......
And standing behind all this chaos and gore was actually the executive officer of the Cloud Hidden Association, Xuanfu, who was smiling at all this scene.
Xuan's lips moved, as if to say something.
But Chi Yi couldn't hear a word of those words, he could only watch all this happen silently, powerless to change it......
Chi Yimeng withdrew from the image of the future, his forehead was rolling down with large drops of sweat, and at the same time, his heart was beating violently, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
He looked back at the mercury who was still sleeping soundly in bed.
From that moment on, he was determined to change the future and change the fate of mercury.
It was also from that moment on, as long as Mercury wanted to get it, he would do everything he could to satisfy it and help her get it.
And this includes the precious manuscripts left by Rinrin's father, who was the first puppeteer to be made during the Battle of Twilight.
This is also the reason why the Chime clan has repeatedly sent people to buy the house of the Rin family, and it is the reason why Ye Rin will be excluded at all costs.
It's just that things are often so unexpected.
Rin and Mercury met and became friends, and everything seemed to be moving in a good direction step by step......
But it wasn't until the day when Talos's memory was awakened and his identity was revealed. The two broke up, each returned to everyone and began to live again, and finally ushered in war again.
The deterioration of Mercury's body made Chi Yi suddenly realize that the scene he saw in the future would eventually come.
He wanted to change, but he couldn't do it.
And the mysterious "new puppet" project, as well as the rhetoric and measures that vigorously promote the war, are all accelerating the progress of mercury step by step to the death line.
However, just when he is at a loss for this, Rin and Talos decide to put an end to the war proposal, which gives Chiichi hope.
It's just that I didn't expect that after preventing the armistice agreement from failing, Xuan Wu actually agreed to negotiate peace on the surface, but secretly set up an ambush, wanting to get rid of all the magic envoys and Yeren who participated in the peace negotiation that day.
However, what he didn't expect was that the Ikeme clan's enchantment could block his "phantom", and now he can't hide the fact that he sabotaged the peace and killed people.
Chi Yiyi thought about capturing him alive or ending him on the spot. This would change everything he saw in the future, and solve the problems of the moment.
But he didn't think about it, and Xuan Yu had already prepared. He desperately devoured all the spirits that had long since died and were originally used to make "armed dolls" from mercury.
Countless spirits gathered in his body, which greatly enhanced his spiritual power, not to mention, but also made him not a demon or a demon, and he was like a stranger.
At the same time, he took the mercury with him somehow.
In desperation, Chi Yi once again uses the power of the "Eye of the Dead" to confirm whether everything will change in the future.
However, everything is still the way it was.
Corpses in pools of blood, mercury death, and mysterious smiles......
