"Can you tell me about my existence?" asked the pregnant woman expectantly.

Leo didn't answer, but was silent for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me how the missing five people are doing?"

The pregnant woman replied calmly: "If they are lucky, they have come to their senses and returned to Torch City, and if they are unlucky, they may have been eaten by some monster in the forest." Then, she looked at Leo with deep meaning and said, "You should know that I don't eat any intelligent life, I am only interested in the strong emotions in the heart of intelligent life, joy is like barbecue, love is like dessert......"

"And what about the panic?" asked Leo again.

The pregnant woman said bluntly: "Panic is like soothing grass, it smells bad, but it can lift your spirits, and it is very addictive, I am already addicted." ”

Soothing herb is a herb used in the ritual of shamans in the Moisan continent, which can soothe people's emotions and make people feel refreshed for a period of time.

It's just that the medical school soon found that the soothing herbal juice refined by refining not only has better medicinal effects, but also has extremely strong side effects, that is, it is easy to become addictive, and addicted people will quickly become manic and violent after not getting the soothing herbs they want, and finally even have thoughts and behaviors that self-destruct and destroy others.

Because of this strong side effect, medical schools have to abandon this special drug for the treatment of mental illness, and put soothing grass on the list of prohibited drugs, and other countries have banned this drug.

However, with the changes in the world, although the vast majority of ordinary human bodies have not undergone drastic mutations, they have more or less changed somewhat, such as the ability to withstand the side effects of medicines, and people in this era generally feel desperate and panicked about a world rampant with monsters, and the mental pressure is far more than more than 20 years ago, so the soothing herb, which can invigorate the spirit, has been removed from the list of prohibited drugs again, and has been made into a variety of finished medicines that are easy to take and carry.

In the caravan of the Fire Dancers, many people, especially those directly involved in the front-line battles such as guards and hunters, had the habit of taking soothing herbs, and they were fighting for their lives every time they traveled, and the pressure they were under far exceeded those who lived in the protected cities under the high walls, and without the help of soothing herbs, many of them would have suffered a nervous breakdown due to the stress.

Although Leo had never used soothing herbs, he was very familiar with similar potions, and when he was in the Earth Federation, the Federation army would distribute similar potions to ordinary soldiers on the front line, which was used to increase the combat time of the warriors and reduce the mental pressure caused by long-term battles.

However, even the technology of the Earth Federation developed such a potion had extremely strong side effects, causing irreparable mental damage to the warrior who had taken it for a long time, and he would hardly need to verify it to be sure that this soothing herbal medicine would definitely not be as harmless as the outside world had rumored.

It is foreseeable that even if these drug takers resist the side effects of the soothing herbs through their strong bodies, so that their bodies do not show signs of addiction, their spirits have been completely eroded by the soothing herbs, and once they lose the supply of the medicine one day, then they will also become completely useless because of their broken spirits.

The pregnant woman is a spiritual being, and her spiritual understanding of intelligent beings is definitely more than all levels of life in the world and even the universe, so she must also know what kind of mental condition those who take soothing herbs are, but now she uses soothing herbs to describe her love and addiction to panic, which also makes Leo feel a little worried.

Just as a person who takes soothing herbs will continue to increase the dose to increase the effectiveness of the medicine, the pregnant woman will probably not be satisfied with the amount of panic she is now inhaling, and will certainly expand her food source, and by that time it will no longer be a caravan person, but may be a city or even a county or a country.

Leo thought of this, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his emotions changed slightly, considering whether he should tell him what he knew about spiritual beings.

Although the higher civilizations have never found irrefutable evidence to prove the existence of spiritual beings, they have already conducted in-depth research on spiritual beings through some other means, especially in some of the materials that have been published, most of which are studies on the abilities of spiritual beings.

Just as Leo was able to find out his own psionic skills through his understanding of psionic beings, this spiritual life form in front of him may also be able to find out the strength and ability that belonged to her through the research materials of those advanced civilizations.

If it was before, Leo would not have considered the consequences of saying these research materials, he would only use them to trade with spiritual beings to get what he wanted, and as for what would have a bad impact on other people and the world, he would not care too much.

But now the situation is completely different, he has already gained the emotions of ordinary people, and he has more things to think about, and there are also a lot more worries in his heart.

Just as Leo hesitated, the spiritual creature also accurately sensed Leo's emotional changes, and realized that she might not be able to know about her kind of existence from Leo's mouth, which made her a little annoyed, and the expression on her face became gloomy.

"You're not going to tell me anything about a being like me. The pregnant woman straightforwardly picked out Leo's thoughts at the moment.

Leo didn't hesitate any longer, nodded and admitted, "Yes." ”

The pregnant woman said indifferently, "It's okay, I can find it myself." ”

After saying that, without waiting for Leo to react, the pregnant woman disappeared directly from Leo's eyes, as if she had never existed.

The appearance of the anomaly made Leo instantly understand that the other party was probably entering his spiritual world through his own ability, so he immediately used his known method to let his consciousness enter his mental world to check the situation, and at the same time quickly check the status of the database memory in his brain.

However, after repeated and careful examination, Leo did not notice anything unusual in himself, nor did he show any signs of being invaded, which did not reassure him, but made him more vigilant.

In his opinion, if there was no big mistake in the research on the spiritual lifeform, then the spiritual lifeform just now would probably have invaded his spiritual world and began to look through all kinds of materials in his brain.

Faced with this situation, Leo couldn't find any effective way to deal with the various abilities he already mastered, let alone him, even the gods of the Velen World were probably unable to resist the invasion of spiritual lifeforms.

The only thing Leo could do now was to double-check using whatever methods he had mastered against his own spiritual consciousness, hoping to find some traces of the invasion.

Time passed little by little, and the same examination results made Leo feel very disappointed, but in addition to the disappointment, he was puzzled, because with the ability of the spiritual lifeform, if it had really invaded his spiritual world, then the other party should have already read his memory thoroughly and left his spiritual world, but now the spiritual lifeform did not appear again as if it had really disappeared.

"Could it be that she has already left?" The anomalous situation made Leo have a conjecture, but he quickly shook his head again, rejecting this conjecture, because judging from the contact he had just made with that spiritual lifeform, even if the other party had obtained the information he wanted, he would still reappear in front of him.

"Or is she gone?" Leo then came to the mind of a thought that seemed completely impossible to him in his rational analysis, but his instincts told him that perhaps it was true.

Under the guidance of intuition, Leo repeatedly analyzed the reason why the spiritual life form did not appear, and gradually felt that the speculation that the spirit life form had disappeared may be correct.

Because Leo found that when he faced that spiritual life just now, he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding, and this misunderstanding was enough to make his subsequent analysis and judgment go in the wrong direction.

For example, all the information he knows about spiritual life is derived from unverified public information, and even those beings of the Supreme Council of the universe are vague about whether the spiritual life form really exists, then the research on spiritual life has no substantive object, and all the research data are derived from illusions, just because these studies are from the higher civilization and the Supreme Council of the universe, and its authoritative effect makes all those who obtain these materials subconsciously think that these materials are correct and that the spiritual life forms are real。

But what if the spiritual life form does not exist? Everything is just a conjecture? Then the mysterious existence disguised as a pregnant woman just now is not a spiritual life form, and all the abilities related to the spiritual life form will naturally not appear in this mysterious being, such as the ability to be immortal and immortal.

Taking a step back and thinking about it, even if a spiritual life form exists, the other party is indeed a spirit life body, but the surrounding environment is completely different, this is not the void of the universe, but it is likely to be a subspace plane, and all the laws in the universe cannot be completely applied here.

Just as psionic energy will be greatly limited here, the power of the spiritual life form will probably also be greatly suppressed, so that the various abilities related to the spiritual life form in his memory will naturally be countless.

And more importantly, the power here is different from the power in the universe, and it is not certain whether the spiritual life form that cannot be restrained in the universe will be restrained in this world, maybe there is some kind of power in this world that just restrains her, and it is not impossible to do so.

Thinking of this, Leo shifted the focus of his examination from his own spiritual world to the rest of his body, especially those divine imprints in his body.

Soon Leo made a discovery, and when he condensed the Stone Throne in his brain through his mental power, he found that there was an extra relief on the base of the Stone Throne, or more accurately, he felt that there was an extra relief.

Leo couldn't describe what the relief looked like, because it was a vague concept, not a concrete image, but Leo knew that it was the spiritual being.

Obviously, when this spiritual life entity invaded Leo's spiritual world, it happened to collide with the power of the Stone Throne and was directly absorbed by the Stone Throne.

The silent disappearance of a special being that was enough to make the entire universe feel inconvenient made Leo feel a strong sense of unreality, and even thought that it might be an illusion created by the spiritual life according to his memories and thoughts.

But his intuition told him that all this was true, that the Stone Throne had indeed devoured this spiritual life that was addicted to panic and emotion, and since intuition could allow Leo to find this spiritual life, then intuition would naturally be able to discover the condition of this spiritual life being.

Leo was naturally happy to be able to solve a problem so easily, but at the same time, he also felt regretful, both regretful that a strange life form that was enough to change the record of life in the universe disappeared in his hands, and he also regretted that he could not get more useful information from this spiritual life form.

But even so, Leo was able to analyze some extremely bold content from some clues.

For example, from the previous conversation, Leo could hear that this spiritual life form appeared in the universe after it may have changed, and she didn't understand some common sense things in the universe at all, but she was able to understand some of the cosmic concepts that Leo said, as if these knowledge were innately known to her, which also made Leo guess that this spiritual life form was not newborn, but reborn.

Since there is rebirth, there will naturally be destruction, and in addition to the current stone throne, the only way that Leo knows that the only way to make the spiritual life form perish may be the destruction of the entire universe, all the intelligent beings in the universe have perished, and the spiritual life form has lost its spiritual sustenance, and it is naturally impossible for the spiritual life form to continue to exist.

It's just that Leo doesn't think this analysis is correct, not to mention what impact the extinction of the universe will have on the subspace, even if the universe perishes, the process of extinction is probably very long, hundreds of millions of years is possible, and this is contrary to the time when life appeared in the world of Velon, unless the power of subspace has been able to compress such a long time distortion of hundreds of millions of years to thousands of years.

In any case, for Leo, this spiritual life form was just a special being he had encountered during his early journey, and now that the matter had passed, he didn't think much about it, and his consciousness retreated from the spirit world, and instead of going back to the Fire Dancer caravan, he continued to walk directly along the mountain path towards the other end of the Newsky Mountains.

Not long after Leo left, a phantus suddenly appeared in the place where he had been, and this phantom quickly condensed into a middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man looked at the direction Leo left with fear in his eyes, and then disappeared from the same place.
