Section 450 Profound Changes
The depths, the boundless darkness. Infinite stretching veins. It's like an eternal net.
In a huge tumor, Scarlet Moon slowly opened her eyes, and there was a faint red light in front of her.
"Another verse has passed. Master, you are still in the future. ”
She whispered, as if talking to herself, and as if she was talking to her soul. But it was an extravagant hope for her, because even she knew that she had no soul. The beings of the deep realm have no souls, everything they have belongs here, to the back of this world.
"Another long sleep. I don't know if I'll be able to wake up next time. With a flick of her fingers, Scarlet Moon slowly slid down from the walls of her body, which had countless veins connected to it. A faint, almost imperceptible feeling of thought began to flow, spreading down the veins towards the depths. With the help of this power, Scarlet Moon senses what is happening during this time and collects it into her own information base.
She is the master's assistant, and there are many, many more 'people' like her. The Deep created them to better serve the 'followed', to serve those who are called the 'Children of the Deep'. If she can't even do that, then what's the point of being?
Time flows quietly, and Scarlet Moon collects it very carefully and effortlessly. She wasn't a 'young' assistant anymore, judging by the fact that the Depths assistant had a lifespan of less than ten years, she was already old. Without the drive of the soul, her body would have collapsed long ago, and if it weren't for the deep realm that had been supporting her, perhaps she would have disappeared without a trace.
To put it bluntly, the so-called Deepworld assistant is just a 'piece of meat' that can move.
But Scarlet Moon felt that she seemed to be going to be a thoughtful and emotional piece of meat. If it can be done, it must be a very happy thing.
"It turns out that so much has happened? Master, start collecting your own strength. Crimson Moon gathered information little by little, and a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face. She was glad that her master had finally embarked on the path that fate had given her, and had returned to that eternal journey. Although the process may not be pretty, Scarlet Moon knows that it is the inevitable end. And every bit and every bit that Chen Yan does now will be closely related to her.
"So, he'll need me more and more, maybe, come and see me soon......" Scarlet Moon looked at the information she had just gotten, and a smile bloomed on her face.
Suddenly, a piece of skin fell from her face, revealing the bright red tendons underneath.
Scarlet Moon was stunned, looking at the pale, curly, ugly skin.
It's her skin.
"I ...... It's almost over. ”
Scarlet Moon said softly, her gaze a little flustered and a little desolate. But the only thing missing is the unexpected. This was the fate of all the Deep's helpers, she already knew. It's just that I didn't expect that even with the support of the Deep Realm, this day would come so quickly. Her virtual soul will not be able to bear this body, and without a real soul, they will not be able to change to a new body. She will disappear in the darkness, like all Deepworld helpers. Turned into a puddle of meat that wasn't even a pulp.
The Deep Realm calls it waste.
However, there are ways to slow down this process, as a 'senior' assistant in the Deep Realm, Scarlet Moon knows far more about the Deep Realm than ordinary people. She knew that if she reduced her mental activity, her independence, and even her physical use, she would prolong the use of her body like some of her assistants. Of course, then she would be like a zombie, without thinking, without speaking, and without acting. Feedback is only given when the owner uses it.
Thought...... What a term for luxury. For the life of the main material realm, and even for the life of the positive world, this is an innate talent. But for the Scarlet Moon......
"Can't...... Wait a little longer. I have to take care of everything for my master as soon as possible. Scarlet Moon's gaze gradually sharpened. The body is reactive. She knew that it was all built on the support of the Depths, and that if it continued, it would perish even faster. But she didn't hesitate.
She's Scarlet Moon, not some 'No. 1 and No. 2'. She is a scarlet moon with independent thoughts, feelings, and actions. If thought is also a kind of existence, then Scarlet Moon feels that she already has an existence, and she has imprinted her name in the context of the other world.
What a satisfying and joyful goal that is.
Even if you die immediately, it is happiness.
In the faint red light, Scarlet Moon gradually sped up, and she had to gather enough information as soon as possible to complete the reconstruction of information. From the information she had gathered before, she already knew that Chen Yan's condition was not very good, and there were many powerful ancient demons that had already targeted him and wanted to wipe him out.
Scarlet Moon doesn't care who is right and who is wrong, nor does she care what kind of authority those ancient and powerful have, she only cares about her own duties. He is an assistant, an assistant to the master, and it is fate.
The veins were squirming, and a large amount of nutrients were fed into Scarlet Moon's body, supporting her calculations billions of times every minute and every second. Information also converged on her from all directions, like a river rushing into the sea. Scarlet Moon felt that her brain area was in pain, indicating that her work was far beyond her regular load. If under normal circumstances she should have stopped. Work wasn't done in a day, and she had plenty of time to splurge in this place of eternal darkness.
But not today. Sensing the breath of death, Crimson Moon was already fully capable of devouring everything that was useful as much as she could. The process was very painful, and before she knew it, her body cracked a few more pieces, and several pieces of skin fell down.
Time passed quickly, and it took almost only an hour for Scarlet Moon to collect most of it and reconstruct the information base. But at this moment she was stunned for a moment, and then in a rough way she ripped off the connection to the veins of the wall. At the same time, the entire Deep Realm was violently shaken, like a thunderclap on a winter night, and the whole world shook. The tumor trembled violently, spurting blood from all the pores, and the veins that held it in place broke down a lot.
"This is!?" Scarlet Moon's pupils contracted suddenly, and she rushed to the 'window' of the tumor, and then saw a scene that she had never dreamed of before.
I saw that at her feet, in the deepest part of the vast dark depths, a bright crack suddenly cracked, and the light that penetrated through it expelled a part of the darkness almost instantly, and also made the entire deep realm miserable. Veins, blood vessels, tumors, nets, everything built in the deep realm is wiped out under this light, and it naturally includes the thoughts and feelings.
With countless assistants like her.
"Deep...... Broken? ”
