Seventeenth Sulla: Angel of Entropy
In the verdant age, in the ancient years before magic was born, did Rajat really change his body? Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At first glance, what Carigian said seems plausible, explaining many doubts in the ancient history of Athas. But she couldn't produce evidence, she had no evidence, and she had no reason to believe it without reservation.
At this time, Muhati suddenly remembered that the Great Starch Spencer sent Druid Camilla was a clone of the opposite sex of the Achustal Warlock, and she was created from the broken Primordial Warlock chromosomes. Due to Rajat's betrayal and sealing by the Witch Kings, his biological tissue has not been well preserved. The Grand Elder of the Starch Spencer Druids was unable to find the Y chromosome of the primordial warlock, so he had to copy two of the X chromosomes to create Camilla, and the gender changed from male to female. But overall, Camila should have retained most of the traits of the Primordial Warlock, and she must be able to tell if the forsakens were lying.
Unfortunately, Camilla was also one of the culprits in the first split in faith, and the astral and Fatimid followers led by her and the pseudo-prophet Danjar were hostile to each other, and it was impossible for the psychic to ask her for confirmation at this moment.
"Forsaken, why should I care?" said Muhadi, pausing at the spiral staircase. "Forgive me for being straightforward, but what is the purpose of inviting me?"
"Ellen will tell you this, not me. Dressed in pink and surrounded by doppelgangers from parallel worlds, Carley Jean said. "Let's go to the control room on top. Or you can turn around and leave like a coward. In the name of the First Cause, we will not reveal your whereabouts. ”
"I'll go meet this Ellene, but it's not because I'm afraid of being ridiculed as a coward, or because I don't believe your oath. Muhati stopped, looked at the other and said. "Keep leading the way. ”
The pink-haired, long-running psychic warlock and mage didn't hesitate and began to lead the way. "Exactly what Rajat himself would say in such a situation. We weren't mistaken. ”
Muhati didn't bother to deny it, and followed her onwards.
At the top of this giant rocket left over from the ancient Kavanagh is its carrying compartment, but whatever it once contained, it has long since been lost in its long history. The vacated space was converted into a dwelling, filled with all sorts of strange equipment and instruments, buzzing and glowing with strange lights.
Some of the equipment here is magical, some psionic and some are powers that even Muhadi doesn't understand. Surrounded by strange instruments, there is a messy laboratory, where ancient relics recovered from Kavanagh's wastes have been dismantled and placed on tables made of strange metal. A man who looks like a scholar examines them.
His face was unremarkable, and he looked about the same age as Carigian, but if they were right, both men were at least a few thousand years old. They all came from before the primordial warlocks invented magic.
The scholar wore plain, even shabby, plain white robes, with black and white checkered turbans on their heads. There was not a single magic item or psionic product worth mentioning, and his mind fluctuated strangely calmly, without any waves, as if he didn't have ordinary people's emotional ups and downs.
"So you brought our guests here, sister. The scholar-looking man nodded to Carigian, and he turned to the Psychic Warlock. "Fortunately, Lord Muhadi. It is a great honour for me to have you here. I am Ellenn, the owner of this body. He pointed to himself.
Although his mouth was polite, Ellen's thoughts fluctuated as calmly as the windless sea.
"Huh. Carigine laughed, and the projections around her made mocking gestures. "He's the Primordial Warlock himself, I'm sure of that, you can just call him Rajat. ”
"In my opinion, he is an outcast, just like us. Ellen looked at the Psychic Warlock as if to see him through, and then said. "The primordial warlock used this body, there's no doubt about it. But he was no longer in the man, Rajat had left, or better yet, had been killed. ”
"You know very well that Rajat can't be killed, brother. Carlie Jean said.
"Knowing doesn't mean I can't have hope, and the essence of research is to discover new things and deny old ones. Ellen said, and then he turned to Muhadi again. "Why don't you let us hear what the person has to say? Rajat took possession of your body, right, but he's gone now, isn't he?"
The Psychic Warlock remembered the battle of the Pure Fortress, when he was indeed completely controlled by the Primordial Warlock, but the combined attack of the Coral Witch and the three Witch Kings broke Rajat's lifebox, the Black Soul Stone, thus interrupting his possession.
"That's right, he'd occupied the body for a short time. "But he's long since been wiped out, and his lifebox is gone." I'm not a primordial warlock. He emphasized the last four words.
"But you're not the original owner of this body, are you?" Ellen frowned, "I can see this body and your soul...... It's not coordinated. ”
The psychic mancer's heart was in dizzy, the body and soul were not in harmony, and it could be seen that what was this man studying?
"Of course it's not coordinated, because he's Rajat, and you're rarely blind. Carley Jean interjected. "Maybe his memory has been destroyed or lost, but he is undoubtedly Rajat himself, don't you feel the feeling of standing next to him?
"If he was really a primordial warlock, we would be dead by now. Ellen said.
"Maybe he's changed?" questioned Carigine. "His memory was destroyed, and his personality may have changed......"
"If a person changes his body, loses his memory, changes his personality, then he is no longer the same person. Ellen frowned, interrupting the female psychic and mage. "After all, what determines who a person is who he is? If the body, the memory, and the personality are changed, then the essence of the person is also changed. ”
"You are indeed the greatest scholar I have ever met, brother. Carley Jean pursed her lips and said. "But I can't agree with what you're saying. Even if the body, memory, and personality have changed, a person can still be himself. His essence doesn't necessarily change. ”
"What do you think, then," Ellen said, raising his tone and speaking impatiently to Carigine, clearly disagreeing. "What can change the essence of a person?"
Muhati listened a little loudly, and the researcher is good at everything, but once he indulges in academic problems, he can't extricate himself. His former teacher, the Great Psychic Warlock, Lyra, was like this, always saying strange things when her scholarly personality prevailed. Sometimes her six personalities discuss and even debate with themselves.
"So you invited me to satisfy your curiosity, and if that's the case, then I'm compelled to take my leave. The Psychic Warlock said to the two men, interrupting their discussion. "I've got to seize the time to recruit a new captain of the magic ship. ”
"Why do you need to hire a captain when you're the inventor of the magic ship yourself?" asked Calgin with a frown.
But Ellen said, "We can help you solve this problem, and I came to you in the hope that we can help each other." ”
"It's my hobby to help strangers I don't know and who have repeatedly questioned me. The Psychic said, not caring if the other party thought he was sarcastic. "Let me hear what you want to do. ”
"Something anyone wants to do," Ellen said in a loud voice. "Just in self-defense. ”
"If you think I'm the kind of adventurer thug you can hire at will, you're wrong. Muhadi frowned. "Try your luck at a smoke shop, and maybe run into a dozen adventurers. ”
"The enemy I'm about to talk about is something that only you can deal with," Ellen claimed. "And you're going to deal with it, if not to help us. ”
"It?" the telemancer noticed. "So it's not some witch king, and I have no personal enemies other than public enemies. ”
"Then you are terrible ignorance. Carley Jean commented.
"Angel of Entropy. Ellene, who had always been a scholar, whispered a name, and looked at his solemn demeanor, as if the mere mention of this enemy would lead to great danger. "Its origin and true body are a mystery, and the image it usually presents is a huge and inexplicable flesh and blood structure. What is certain is that it is very powerful and hunts the outcast. ”
"And you, because you were briefly occupied by the primordial warlock, will also be hunted down by the angel of entropy. Ellen said in a calm tone, as if reading a judgment.
"You said you weren't a primordial warlock, that's good, I believe. In that case, then you will be in sympathy with us. If we join forces, we may be able to figure out how to defeat it. ”
The psychic sorcerer pondered for a moment, judging from the fluctuations in the other party's thoughts, what Ellen said seemed to be the truth, but it was still a little difficult to accept.
"I've never seen or heard the name Angel of Entropy. Muhadi finally spoke. "How do I know you're not making up a story, or you're alarmist?"
"I guess you can only choose to believe or not to believe. Ellen said, looking into the eyes of the Psychic Warlock. "Believe me, or believe that there is nothing wrong with your own psionic polygraph. ”
The other party found out that he had been using psionic energy to detect thoughts, but Muhadi was not embarrassed. "You two, you were born before the primordial warlock invented magic, but you have lived until now. I don't think this Angel of Entropy is some imminent threat, and there are so many things to work on right now that I have to refuse. ”
"If we told you," Carley Jinn, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly interjected. "This Angel of Entropy and your 'Master' Lyra may have joined forces?"
The Psychic Warlock, who was already about to leave, suddenly became interested, "Lyra?" He remembered the sudden farewell of the female Psychic Warlock Aisha in the Nine Prisons of Barto and Lyra's crazy plan to try to control the Misplaced One from the Cancer Universe.
"Exactly. Ellen added. "Although the origin and true body of the Angel of Entropy are unknown, we speculate that it is the embodiment of the abstract concept of the multiverse. In the past, we all thought it was impossible to contact and communicate with such beings, but your master, Lyra, has somehow suddenly invented an unthinkable method...... One of our sisters—another forsaken—witnessed Lyra and the Angel of Entropy walking side by side in the Abyss. This is very unusual, the Angel of Entropy will generally attack any sapient creature that comes close to it, and Lyra must have gained the ability to communicate with it or even have limited control. ”
"We don't know much about Lyra, the Great Psychic Warlock. Carlie Jean said. "She's weird, it's hard to fathom, it's incomprehensible...... But truth be told, most Great Psychic Warlocks do. What sets Lyra apart from other Great Psychic Warlocks is that she is particularly interested in ancient legends and relics, or more specifically, those related to the Primordial Warlocks, as if she had been searching for some answers. ”
"Almost a decade ago, Lyra disappeared from Atas, and since then she has been seen appearing in the most distant and dangerous planes. The female mage and psychic sorcerer smiled and said to Muhadi. The projections around her made similar movements. "My instincts tell me that you would be interested in joining forces with us against Lyra and the Angels of Entropy?" )
