I thought it was just an ordinary little thing, but the main god didn't notice it, and Zhou Heng didn't care about it at first. Unexpectedly, this cursed dragon actually dropped a soul pendant and came out.

Fighting monsters and dropping equipment seems to be a matter of course; Most of the things dropped by the cursed dragon are some materials, dragon blood and dragon scales are all over the ground, and things like the more cherished dragon eye dragon heart have collapsed along with the cursed dragon's body because they were not collected in advance. And the origin of this 'soul fall' is extremely suspicious.

There is no doubt that the things that can be 'dropped' must be the things that are originally stored in zài. This item resembling a 'Soul Fall' is undoubtedly something that was already in the body of the Cursed Dragon and did not disappear with the collapse of its body just now. So what exactly is this 'soul pendant'?

In the game, it is a special item that directly relates to the game mode, so what does it do in reality? And its relationship with the Cursed Dragon is unknown, why did the corpse of the Cursed Dragon turn into such a thing? When Little Yellow Fur played with this thing, it was unlikely that he would have any additional thoughts about the origin of this kind of thing - after getting used to the setting of fighting monsters and dropping equipment, it was not doubtful that a stone would fall out of the dragon's body. Why did this thing, which seemed to have nothing to do with the Cursed Dragon, appear on the body of the Cursed Dragon?

Zhou Heng tried for most of the day, but got no results. Just as the Lord God had observed, the 'Soul Fall' itself was structured like an ordinary small stone, and there was nothing special about it. He couldn't see what was going on, so Zhou Heng handed over the things to a few people from the other world and asked them to try it. After all, this thing was originally an otherworldly prop. Maybe you can only power it with magic.

A magister who came with him took the stone. I checked it and didn't find anything; But only after he tried to inject magic into the stone. The surface of the 'Soul Fall' suddenly lit up with a faint orange glow.

"Do you feel anything?" Zhou Heng hurriedly asked.

"Didn't feel it...... I can only feel that there is indeed a strange magic force running in it, and the specific situation is unknown. ”

When the others saw that it worked, they gathered around curiously; However, the details of this thing are not very clear at present, and after a simple attempt, Zhou Heng packed up the thing on the grounds that it was unsafe.

Anyway, the thing is already in hand, and you can study it slowly in the future; However, after getting this thing, Zhou Heng himself had some vague guesses and ideas. But he didn't sue anyone else. The work of cleaning up the battlefield began, and Zhou Heng discussed it with a few people in Venia and reopened the gap of the 'Silver Moon'.

The cursed dragon has been slain, and it looks like it's over. However, Zhou Heng still needs to talk to those cultists, after all, these guys are the enemies who have always been his enemies. Before challenging the Cursed Dragon, these guys unexpectedly calmed down and ignored the magic array gap that Zhou Heng had specially opened for them, but now that the Cursed Dragon had been destroyed, it was time to see their expressions and reactions.

And this time, the cultists did not continue to be silent, and a black mist surged, and the cult lord Leilia, whom they had seen that day, appeared in the clearing in front of them.

"Thank you. You have freed us from the fate of enslavement. ”

As soon as they met, Leilia thanked everyone directly. It's not just the expression that is sincere. He even saluted the crowd directly—a much better look than that day,and his words caused a whisper—

"What fate of servitude?"

"We have been enslaved by the cursed dragon since a hundred years ago, forced to go to war and invade everywhere, and if it weren't for you, we don't even know when this life would end."

"Huh?"

Hearing Leilia's words, the people around him couldn't help but have some short-circuited thoughts; This Leilia seems to be in a bad stomach, and in the last negotiations, she repeatedly tested the bottom line of the earth, and her requirements for Zhou Lu were flickering, and she was not a good neighbor who could be respected; But now that he is so humble, everyone is a little unable to adapt

"You mean to say that you're glad the cursed dragon is dead?"

"That's right." "Before, I was basically out of my own hands. Even the invasion of your Earth was commissioned by the Cursed Dragon. ”

"What?"

"We ourselves were originally ordinary people living in the Wind Continent, and we were corrupted by the curse of the dragon, so we had to become its subordinates." "It is a chaotic creature, inherently hostile and hateful to all intelligent races. Attacking your world, what we do ourselves, is nothing we do, and it is not our intention. So I want to ask your forgiveness for our minions, now that the Cursed Dragon has been completely destroyed, we will not continue the war. ”

"You mean...... Did the cursed dragon tell you to do everything? ”

"Almost." Leilia sighed, "We ourselves are controlled by it, and we can't resist its brutal rule at all, and now that you get rid of it, our fate can finally be changed." So -- please give us a chance to start over. ”

Everyone's eyes turned to Zhou Heng's side, and most of the people in the church and executive department believed what he said; Some of the information he mentions in his words is indeed in line with the known information. In addition, several supernumeraries seemed to have something to say, but before they could speak, Zhou Heng said: "Since this is the case, then what you have done can be regarded as excusable; So what do you guys think now? ”

"We hope to be able to cease war with you."

"What was the last time—"

"Totally agree." "I can give you all the magic that the Cursed Dragon has taught us. However, some of the magic can only be performed by the Cursed Dragon's own participation, so there is nothing we can do about it......"

"It doesn't matter, take it."

Lelia answered, flipping her right hand. A small black and red square sign appeared in his hand. Zhou Heng motioned for Qian He to take the sign. A plume of black smoke came out of the sign. Got into Qian He's head from his ear.

Will it be okay? The surrounding people were a little worried, and after a while, they saw Qian He open his eyes and report to Zhou Heng.

"No problem, just a prop to get a message across. After the operation is over, the magic dissipates on its own, and there are no adverse reactions. Qian He said, "Including their special magic cultivation methods, methods of controlling living beings, means of space shuttle, and all the relevant knowledge and useful records of rule correction." ”

Hear Qian He's words. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they couldn't help but be a little kinder when they looked at Leilia. Leilia, who looked like a guy with a bad stomach, suddenly came to surrender, which was not a trivial matter anyway. Although what he said seemed to be quite like that, subconsciously, most people were still a little worried about whether he was lying to others.

There is nothing wrong with what Relia has come up with, and it looks like the negotiations are moving in a good direction; However, Zhou Heng was not particularly satisfied with such a result.

After calling a few people from the church to discuss it a little, Zhou Heng turned his head and asked Leilia:

"What about your 'fog of chaos'?"

Leilia was stunned; "Huh? What 'Fog of Chaos'? ”

"It's the special black mist you need to perform these spells." Zhou Heng said, "If we're not mistaken, there is no introduction to this kind of fog in these records of yours, right?" ”

"It's ......," Relia thought for a moment. said, "This mist is controlled by the Cursed Dragon itself. ”

"What do you control?"

"This mist is something that has been granted to us by the Cursed Dragon himself. We don't have the technology for this stuff ourselves. ”

"Then what's the use of that?" Zhou Heng shrugged his shoulders and threw the sign back, "Go back, go back, go back, and keep playing." ”

I thought that this peace negotiation seemed to be successful, but I didn't expect to be thrown back directly by Zhou Heng - everyone's eyes returned to Zhou Heng, but Zhou Heng was calm and had no intention of changing his words at all.

Lelia apologized: "Everything we can provide is already here, and we will compensate all those who died in the war; But it's the kind of thing that the Cursed Dragon really didn't teach us. ”

Zhou Heng refused to let go at all, and continued: "No, you can't do without the mist of chaos to control the method. ”

Leilia was obviously a little helpless: "Do you have any opinion about us?" It is true that we were wrong in the past, but we are also subject to human control, and we do not intend to invade. Please let us go......"

"What's the use of saying that? If you can't come up with that kind of black fog control method, don't think about a truce. Zhou Heng waved his hand impatiently, "If you can't take it, go and discuss it with your companions, anyway, if you want to stop the war, you have to hand over all those things." ”

Originally, there seemed to be some signs of loosening, but I didn't expect that because of the lack of something, Zhou Heng turned his face when he said that he turned his face. Leilia said a few more words, but she didn't expect Zhou Heng to even have no intention of continuing to talk; Although he didn't directly let his sister use the light of the ruling to drive people away, nor did he directly close the 'Silver Moon', this negotiation ended like this.

After the inexplicable negotiations, everyone dispersed. Zhou Lu found Zhou Heng, who had just returned to the aircraft equipped with the test equipment, and saw Zhou Heng holding a can of drink, sitting on the sofa resting leisurely, so he asked directly: "Brother, what's next?" ”

"The boss is also over, of course I'm ready to go home." Zhou Heng said, "Everyone worked hard in the battle just now, let's rest for two days first." ”

"The ...... of the negotiation just now"

"Of course it's no fun." Zhou Heng shrugged his shoulders, "They are insincere. ”

"Sincerity? You mean 'Fog of Chaos', right? Zhou Lu thought for a while and said, "Although I don't understand it very well, but ...... Even if some of the things are missing, with the technical conditions we provide, we may be able to study it in the future, right? ”

"So what to do?" Zhou Heng said, "If they plan to hide it, it must be the most critical thing." If you don't get it out of their mouths now, it won't be so easy to get it in the future. ”

"That being said, I think they might be in trouble......

"Do you really think they're under control?"

"Huh?"

"These guys, in fact, didn't tell the truth in the first place." Zhou Heng said and turned around. To Zhou Lu is colorful. "First of all. That black fog was clearly not something restrictive; Now that the Cursed Dragons are dead, they themselves are still able to use the Black Mist to travel through space and move freely in our world, right? ”

"Hmm......" Zhou Lu thought for a moment and said, "But maybe it's just that the cursed dragon left a part of the black mist so that they can continue their activities?" ”

"Of course, there are more than that, there are other problems." Zhou Heng continued. "Do you remember the suspicions that came out of that battle just now?"

"You mean those cultists didn't come forward to help the Cursed Dragon, right?"

"Yes, after the Cursed Dragon was summoned, these guys who claimed to be enslaved by the Cursed Dragon did not cooperate with their master at all, but watched the Cursed Dragon being killed by us." Zhou Heng said, "This is different from what they just said. ”

"Maybe it's just because they didn't obey the Cursed Dragon in the first place, so they didn't help the Cursed Dragon at the critical moment, but chose to stand by?" Zhou Lu, "But even if that's the case, it can be regarded as a little help to us from the side." If they had joined the fight, the battle just now would have been much tougher. ”

"That's true, but the contradiction is too obvious." Zhou Heng said. "They can all directly disobey the orders of the cursed dragon, and do they need our help to get rid of the cursed dragon? Besides, the person who invaded our world was that Alanoa from the beginning. Now suddenly throwing the pot to the cursed dragon, I don't believe it anyway. ”

"Oh......" Zhou Lu also realized a little, "If they send someone to support the cursed dragon and then take the opportunity to release the water, it's possible, but if they don't come directly, it's a little too weird......"

"Well, that's why I'm suspicious of them. Although most of it is conjecture, these guys are not good people anyway, and I can't risk being deceived to make peace with them," Zhou Heng shrugged, "Anyway, Qian He has already remembered those things." ”

"Poof." Zhou Lu chuckled, "Brother, you're too bad." ”

"This is a serious matter......," Zhou Heng Zhengse said, "In addition, after seeing the stone just now, I have some conjectures. I'm going to confirm it in the next few days, and if I can confirm it, I can completely debunk the true colors of these people. ”

"What is it?"

"You'll know when the time comes."

When the battle is over, it's time to go back. There were a few people left in the desert to collect the scales and body fragments of the cursed dragon, after all, these were very precious materials. Others got on the planes and flew over the Red Sea to East Asia.

The next few days were so calm.

Although they were still in wartime, most of them relaxed after slaying the Cursed Dragon. There were no intruders, no urgent missions that could appear at any time, and the whole base was filled with a lazy atmosphere. Zhou Lu returned to her long-lost home on the ground, and the ordinary members of the church began to retreat one after another. However, under such circumstances, Zhou Heng's research work did not fall behind. On the 'Soul Fall' dropped by the Cursed Dragon, Zhou Heng found a very magical effect.

The specific use effect of 'Soul Fall', Zhou Heng quickly figured it out.

The two researchers each pressed their thumbs on one side of the Soul Fall, and then injected a little magic into the Soul Fall, and a miraculous thing happened - although it seemed to outsiders that it was just a glow on the Soul Fall, the bodies of the two people were swapped in an instant. Sure enough, just like in the game, this item is actually used to change people; Although earthlings and otherworldly people are not interchangeable, and some people whose souls have been damaged by transformation cannot use it to exchange bodies with other people, two people of the same race and sound souls can exchange each other's bodies through it.

Zhou Heng had already expected such a discovery, so Zhou Heng was not very surprised by this strange effect. But what he didn't expect was the phenomenon that occurred during the use of this prop -

If you want to swap bodies for two people, Zhou Heng can do it himself. Similar effects can be achieved by directly swapping brains, or exchanging consciousness for two people, and then extracting the memories of each of them separately and instilling them into the mind of the target body. However, even so, the two approaches are fundamentally different.

The means and methods are secondary, and Zhou Heng's own methods are fundamentally different from the 'Soul Fall'. Zhou Heng's own methods are many, but without exception, they all have a certain influence on the target ontology. For example, when he transformed Zhong Youxin or transformed Luo Tiansheng, Zhou Heng's local methods would cause some irreparable damage to their souls; The most direct result of this kind of transformation, which violates the race's own ability to survive, is that their souls disappear directly. But 'Soul Fall' is different - the conditions under which it is used are closely related to the soul itself, and even if it replaces two people's bodies, it will not have much effect on the soul of a target.

In general, there is nothing substantially harmful about this process; The soul itself is only a quantum phenomenon that creates a relationship between an individual and a race, and is of little use to the individual; Although Zhou Heng found that the use of some abilities may be related to 'race' during this war, such abilities are only a few, so Zhou Heng himself did not care about this matter. With the idea that it is not a good thing to become a suspicious species that is not a human after all, Zhou Heng is also a little curious about the principle of this pendant; However, I don't know if I don't check, after a little analysis, even Zhou Heng himself was taken aback.
