Chapter Ninety-Four: The Bridge of Souls
In Xiao Chen's divine consciousness, a complex ball of magic light was slowly rotating, and one by one the magic words were dismantled by Xiao Chen's consciousness, thrown away or reassembled. Sometimes a small mistake can cause the entire system to collapse, and Xiao Chen has to start over. Even with the help of lightning thoughts, this work still takes a lot of time.
Xiao Chen had never modified magic, and the only experience he had in this area was from Tasia. But the good thing he had to do today was more to simplify the parts of magic that didn't apply.
Part of the Bridge of Souls magic is extracting souls from a person's brain, and now there is no such thing as a brain in Tasia, just like an ice axe is used to retrieve things in ice, and a net bag is used to take things in water.
The wrong tools are a burden to do things. What Xiao Chen had to do was to remove the part of the ice axe, although he couldn't make a net pocket, but he came up with a stupid way, that is, to jump into the water to salvage it himself.
Originally, he only had to wait for the other party to come over at this end of the bridge, but now he had to walk over and find Tasia's soul for himself......
The outside world.
Belia kept trying to tell her about what had happened in the house before, and Tasia floated around her and listened quietly, but gradually she seemed to be more and more sleepy because of the lack of energy.
"If it doesn't go on like this, Miss Tasia won't be able to hold out until Brother Xiao recovers. Do you want to remind Brother Xiao?" Caterina saw that Tasia's head was already a little down, her eyes were a little closed, and she fidgeted.
"But we're not magicians, we can't seem to do anything. Roger glanced at Xiao Chen, who still didn't move, and said, "Don't bother Lord Xiao Chen, if he is not ready to come and forcibly cast spells, there will be problems." Remember, nothing here is more important than Lord Xiao Chen's safety. ”
"Of course I do. But...... It seems that this Miss Tasia is also very important to Brother Xiao, and isn't she very remarkable? I'm afraid that if she dies here, her family will find trouble with Brother Xiao, whether it's the Alonso family, the Magic Association, or a certain great magician, and we don't even know which forces are involved with her family, these people ...... can cause huge trouble. They don't even have to go against us directly, as long as they make things difficult for us, we will not be able to move an inch in the king's capital. ”
Roger was a little surprised, he didn't expect Caterina to think that far.
"Don't underestimate me. As the executor of Wang Du's intelligence, how could he not understand these things. Caterina sighed and said, "And anyway, she is the one who sacrificed herself to solve our predicament and save Brother Xiao, and I am very grateful to her." ”
Roger pondered for a moment and said, "Based on my limited knowledge of magic, her body is now running low on energy. If there is a way to help her replenish the same kind of energy, maybe it will be able to make her last a little longer. ”
"She's not made of flames, isn't she made of flames, and if we burn her with fire, will she be able to replenish her energy?"
By this time, the wall of fire released by Tasia had long been extinguished, and after Caterina told Tasia her idea, she looked up tiredly and said, "Try it." Anyway, I couldn't have gotten any worse. ”
With nothing around to start a fire, Beleaa took out camping firewood and torches from Tasia's ring and lit a fire on the side of the road. Tasia slowly floated onto the fire, and in the smoke, she seemed to be in good spirits.
"Miss, how are you feeling?" asked Belia as she added firewood.
"It's like a man dying of thirst in the desert with a layer of water on his mouth. ”
"Isn't it useless?" said Belea.
"Either way, the flame at least made me feel better. Belea, let's continue with the story of our childhood. Maybe it's good that I listen to it and it dissipates. ”
"No, miss! ”
"Let's start with the time we played tricks on the son of Viscount Agata when we visited the lake. ”
"Good. Belia wiped away her tears and said.
When Belia told the third story, Tasia suddenly said, "The white fog is about to disperse, and I feel like I'm leaving, and I'm glad to know you." The flames on Tasia's feet began to slowly extinguish.
"Miss!" Belia reached for Tasia's arm, but her hand slipped through. Tasia's body just gave her a warm sensation that couldn't even make her feel any burning sensation.
"Goodbye ......"
Tasia's body dissipated into her abdomen, and when Belia fell into despair, Xiao Chen finally opened her eyes.
A band of pure white light shot out of his eyes and landed on Tasia's head.
At the same time, Xiao Chen's soul split into a part and turned into a ball of light, which followed the bridge of souls like a white channel into Tasia's elemental body.
Xiao Chen originally thought that he would enter a scorching world, but when his soul began to feel the surroundings, what he "saw" was the infinite darkness. It's like a universe without suns and stars, with only some dim nebulae giving the world some light.
No, there is still a "sun", Xiao Chen found that there was a dim light cluster in the center of the space, releasing the last ray of light. As soon as Xiao Chen's mind moved, his soul appeared in front of the light. Xiao Chen's light cluster emitted a dazzling light, and that light cluster was like a critically ill baby in front of a strong young man compared to him.
This is Tasia's soul, she has undoubtedly exhausted her mental power, and she is so weak that she can't do it anymore.
Xiao Chen sent a message to the dying soul: "Tasia, I'm here to pick you up. ”
He sent three messages in a row before the other party responded. Tasia's soul voice was staccato and untain: "Am I dead?, are you the messenger who welcomes my soul back to the earth?"
"There is no messenger to welcome the undead, you are not dead yet, I am Xiao Chen, I am here to save you. ”
The voice on the other side was silent for a while and said, "It's good to have you with me after I die." Even if it's just an illusion before the mind dissipates. ”
Xiao Chen said with some embarrassment: "I really am Xiao Chen, the soul bridge magic has succeeded, and I linked you and my soul at the moment before you dissipated." ”
"Really, I'm not dead?"
"If you don't hurry up and come with me, maybe we'll all die together in your elemental body. ”
"What should I do?"
Xiao Chen's big ball of light approached Tasia's small ball of light, and separated many threads of spiritual power, wrapping her soul like a cocoon, Tasia only felt that her soul was embraced by a warm force, and she had a very safe feeling.
When Xiao Chen's spiritual power completely enveloped Tasia, the world around him suddenly became manic, the black world suddenly began to collapse, and the pieces of black that served as the background began to fall off from this world, first turning into fragments, and then into fine crumbs. And outside the vanishing world is the void, nothing.
Xiao Chen knew that this was Tasia's already collapsed body, which had lost the support of her soul and died completely.
He even felt the pull around him, that is, the world was going to disappear with him. He dragged Tasia's soul and remaining spiritual power as fast as he could, rushing back to the White Soul Bridge.
