Chapter 7 Spiritually
readx;
The frightened aristocratic imp Sticker was the first to come back to his senses, and he didn't know where he got the courage, he walked directly in the direction of the bandit leader who had fallen, and he still held the wooden stick that Coral had just thrown on the ground in his hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Fan and Coral also slowly approached, but the two of them also kept vigilant, aiming their weapons at the "Bear Sparrow" who might not have died yet, after all, those mercenaries with extraordinary skills just now were slaughtered without leaving a place, and taking it lightly would only kill themselves. Only Avi slowly sat up from the ground, picking up the arm of the "Bearfinch" behind him. And when he touched the arm knife on his arm with his hand, a strange sensation passed through his head, as if the weapon with a black blade was a crying baby, and a gentle stroke of his hand could calm it.
Avi removed the arm knife from the severed arm, and he noticed that the black blade was actually attached to the iron arm ring by the blacksmith, and that the blade itself had a certain length, even if grafted onto the handles of other weapons, it could be used as other weapons.
"Hey, is that guy dead?" asked the big-nosed Fan in a loud voice as he walked up to Avi.
Avi shook his head, he didn't know either. Stitch had already walked to the side of the "Bearfinch", and before Coral could stop Stitch, the noble imp had already used the stick to turn the down-down bandit leader over.
The "Bearfinch", who had lost too much blood in his right arm and had also been hit by an arrow in the abdomen, looked dead, but when Coral and Avi walked here, they realized that the bandit leader still had a little breath, and if they stopped the bleeding now, they might be able to save him.
"It's better to save it, just tie him up first. Coral gestured to suggest.
"If I want to save you, I won't save you," Big Nose Fan crossed his hands on his chest, and after he finished speaking, he walked away from the bandit leader's side and walked towards the mercenary who was smashed in the calf and couldn't move, "It's better to save that mercenary." ”
In the end, Avi agreed to Sango's proposal to rescue the bandit leader first.
At Avi's suggestion, the merchants did not leave the bandit stronghold that night. That night, Avi returned to the town with Digby, a local who was still nervous, and contacted the local mercenaries and the mercenaries in the next town, as well as the mercenaries who had gone back to move the rescuers. Within two days, the mercenaries entered the bandit stronghold and carried away the merchants and the looted goods. Some of the daring mercenaries took the bandits' belongings - Digby "warned" Avi that although the bandits in the area were in groups, they would all be obedient to the "Bearfinch". Now that Avi and his companions have captured Bearfinch, it is unknown whether this is a good or bad thing for the Zes mud area.
There are no laws in the neutral zone, and the mayor of every town is nothing more than a non-real person with an empty title, and no one here dares to accept the "bears". The bandit leader also regained a little strength under Sango's care, and the "Bear Sparrow", who had lost one of his arms, was tied up with a thick rope by Big Nose Fan. After discussing with Fan and them, Avi decided to hurry up and directly take the "Bearsparrow", who only had half a breath left, to the territory of the Kingdom of Sallins first, and leave the mud area of Zes, which was monitored by bandits.
Before leaving the town, Digby, a local, in order to express his apologies, took out a map of the Czes mud area and gave it to Avi. He said that the reason why he wanted to help those bandits was also a matter of necessity, and that when he attacked the bandits' stronghold that night, he knew that there were other small roads that could detour into the stronghold, but he didn't dare to say it. If you enter from there, you may be able to catch the bandit leader who is still asleep without losing those mercenaries.
Avi didn't say anything, after all, he was not a law enforcer, and everything Digby did was just his own choice, and he didn't even use the word "forgive". After experiencing the "Righteous Verdict", Avi realized that many things are not as simple as they seem, and try not to judge others from his own perspective, and others should not treat them like that.
Avi led the group into a fast lane according to the map given by Digby. Although this road will pass through some small hills, Digby swears that this road will never encounter bandits, and it will definitely reach the territory of the Kingdom of Sallins safely.
"I have some questions for him. Avi looked at the "bear sparrow" whose mouth was sealed, the other party had been tied to the back of the fourth horse on the road, and if it was an ordinary wounded, he would definitely not be able to stand it because of the bumps. It's just that the bandit leader didn't say a word, and he didn't even react when he was fed food.
Big-nosed Fan stood aside with a catapult iron gun, while Avi slowly approached the bandit leader's side and took off the ball of cloth that was holding the "Bearfinch's" mouth with his hand.
The "Bear Sparrow" eyes were glazed, and Avi didn't even look at Avi when he squatted in front of him.
"You're the bandit leader of the Czeth Mud District?" Avi asked tentatively first, but the other man only opened his mouth slightly, like a demented fool.
Avi then took out the arm knife from the package and placed it in front of the "Bearfinch".
"Is this weapon really a weapon of life?" asked Avi directly. But the bandit leader was silent, and only stared at the arm knife for a long time before closing his eyes.
"You don't have to be so polite to him!" said the big-nosed fan, "This kind of guy is a thief, even if he says anything, he may just be lying to you!
Later, no matter what questions Avi asked, the other party did not answer, as if he had seen through life and death and put everything out of the way. It's just that when he was sleeping at night, Avi dreamed of Ben Nicott, and the appearance of the other party in the dream made Avi see ahead clearly.
"Is this my dream?" Avi found himself sitting on a rock, and around the stone was a large ocean, but this silent and windless ocean was shrouded in darkness, and both the bottomless sea and the sky were pitch black, and he couldn't see his fingers. Avi couldn't see what was in the distance or in the sky, so he could only feel the temperature of the sea with his feet and hands.
"This is your spiritual level, and perhaps now is the right time to tell you something you would like to know. Ben Nicot's voice came from a distance in front of him, as if the other man was sitting in a boat, slowly approaching him, and talking.
"Spiritual... Consciousness?"
"Yes, the vast majority of humanity does not have access to or is clearly aware of this dimension," Ben Nicott's voice did not change, exactly the same as the one in his memory fifteen years ago, "if it is a religious metaphor, it is the space in which your soul exists while it is still in your body. ”
"The soul... Space for the Soul?!"
"I don't know if I have a soul or not, but I can easily control my spirit body and move freely in my spiritual consciousness. But the interesting thing is that I am now able to control my spirit body to move within your spiritual consciousness, and although I have only been given free space in a small area, it is completely sufficient for me. ”
When Avi heard this, he was sure of one thing - the adventure in the hedron tomb really made some strange things sneak into his head. If what Ben Nicott said is true, then the other party's spirit body "swam" into his own brain by virtue of the opportunity of his contact with the crystal, which is what the other party called the spiritual consciousness level.
Ben Nicott's voice came again, "You're right, that contact with the hedron tomb did make us connected, and my spirit body also took that opportunity to enter your spiritual consciousness. ”
"How do you know what I'm thinking?!"
"Because I can know your thoughts if I want to, and as for the reason, you can think of it as the power of magic. ”
Avi, who was sitting on the stone, did not dare to speak, nor did he dare to think nonsense. The other party woke up in a dream like a ghost, and brought himself to this terrible world, and now he can only wait for the other party to make a decision, and he can only listen silently and let him be slaughtered.
Ben Nicott's spirit body: "You don't have to be too afraid, I won't hurt you now." ”
"Now?!"
"Yes, I was able to enter your spiritual level in the first place because your spiritual power is very inclusive... Or rather, vibrant. ”
“...”
"If it were an ordinary person, maybe my only remaining spiritual power would not be able to enter the other party's spiritual consciousness level. But because I have entered into your spiritual plane, if you die, I will die with you - or disappear. ”
"Then why now?"
"Because one day you're going to turn against me. ”
