Silent Hill, where there never seems to be a difference between day and night.

Except when darkness falls, it's the same at all times.

Holding Arestha's hand, Ding Yi and the two were strolling through the streets of the town. Lined with dilapidated, old shops, the sky was covered with ashes that fell like snowflakes.

The atmosphere was a little eerie.

But Aresha looked very happy, she held Ding Yi's hand, and walked and jumped, just like an ordinary little girl.

"Daddy, you'll stay with me forever, right?" As she was happily humming a little song, Aretha suddenly stopped and looked at Ding Yi, with a serious expression on her little face.

Ding Yi looked at the little girl in front of him, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and said, "Aretha, I have something I want to discuss with you. ”

Aretha blinked, the smile on her face fading away.

"Do you regret it?" she asked, looking at Ding Yi.

Ding Yi shook his head, squatted down and looked at her and said, "I have no regrets, but there are some things that I can't control, do you understand?"

Aretha stared at him and said, "You want to leave me?"

"You can leave with me if you want. Ding Yi looked at her and said, "Listen, Aretha." Do you want to stay in a place like this for the rest of your life? Don't you want to see the outside world?"

"After all, you just want to get out of here!" said Aretha, looking a little ugly.

Ding Yi looked at her, and suddenly waved his hand, releasing the kind side in the system space.

The illusory soul body suddenly appeared, and Aresa's little face also looked at this scene with a surprised expression.

"She's ...... Sharon?" Aretha looked at the soul body with some uncertainty.

"Aretha. Ding Yi stood up and put his hand on her head, "Come with me, get out of here and go to the outside world." ”

"Is the outside world really that good?" asked Aretha, looking at him.

Ding Yi smiled and said with a gentle smile on his face: "I don't know about this world, but I will take you to see many different worlds." Will you come with me, Aretha?"

Aretha looked directly into Ding Yi's eyes, and it was a long time before she spoke, "If I don't leave, will you leave me?"

"I can't decide whether I want to stay or not. Ding Yi said honestly.

"Then I'll have to go with you. Aretha suddenly smiled, "You're going to be nice to me, aren't you?"

"Of course. Ding Yi replied without hesitation.

"Are you ready?" asked Ding Yi.

Aretha nodded slightly, her gaze looking at the soul body.

The next moment, Ding Yi's mind moved, awakening the sleeping soul body.

The eyes of the soul body, which had been closed, slowly opened, and what greeted him was a face that was exactly the same as himself, as well as a pair of dark eyes.

In an instant, a strong light appeared on the soul body and Aretha's body.

Ding Yi took a few steps back, staring at the scene without blinking.

The strong light enveloped them, and Ding Yi couldn't see what was going on inside the strong light. It's strange that the fusion of Sharon and the dark side in the movie doesn't have such a big movement, which makes Ding Yi can't help but worry.

"It's not going to happen, is it?" Ding Yi thought worriedly.

In Ding Yi's live broadcast room, nearly 100 million viewers are also staring at the pictures on the screen, guessing what the final result will be.

"Shouldn't it fail?"

"It's going to work!"

"The light seems to be weak. ”

"Look, there's a shadow!"

"There is only one shadow, and it seems that the fusion has succeeded. ”

In Ding Yi's sight, the strong light in front of him gradually faded, and he saw the figure in the light. As the bright light finally dissipated, Ding Yi saw Aresha in a purple dress. She was so clean that even the dress looked like new. On a delicate face like a porcelain doll, the long eyelashes suddenly trembled slightly.

The next moment, Aretha opened her eyes, and a trace of confusion flashed in her beautiful black eyes.

However, she soon found Ding Yi standing not far in front of her, and her eyes suddenly showed a look of joy.

"Daddy~!"

trotted over, Ding Yi also smiled and bent down to pick her up.

"How's it going, do you feel anything uncomfortable?" Ding Yi asked with concern.

Aretha smiled and shook her head, "No, I feel great, I've never been better." ”

As soon as his mind moved, Ding Yi could sense Aretha's existence without even looking at his eyes.

Even if he wanted to, a single thought could erase her.

Of course, Ding Yi would never do this unless he was stupid.

Fused with the good side, Aresha is still the same Aresha as before, but not exactly the same.

The biggest difference is that in the current Aresha's mind, Ding Yi is all she has, even if she sacrifices everything for Ding Yi in the next second, she will not hesitate at all.

But this does not affect her own character, except for Ding Yi, she is still the original Aressa.

Through the system, Ding Yi also checked the current status of Aresa.

【Aretha (Soul Body)】

[Host: Ding Yi]

In a few simple words, the fused Aretha no longer distinguishes between the dark side and the good side, but she is still a soul body, and does not have a real physical body.

But it also has its benefits, at least some physical attacks are ineffective against her.

"By the way, there's this thing. Ding Yi suddenly remembered something.

I saw him flip his hand and take out a silver-white ring from the system space.

The ring looks like a ring, with no gemstone embellishments and only some peculiar textures on it.

This ring is the soul raising ring that Ding Yi got after completing the side quest before, but he didn't have time to take it out and look at it before, and Ding Yi didn't remember it until now.

【Soul Nourishment Ring】

[Function: Nourish the soul and be of great help to the spirit]

To put it simply, if there is no Aretha, this soul raising ring is really useless to Ding Yi. He's not a spirit, it doesn't work on him at all, and it's just an ornament to wear it.

Well, it does exactly what it does for Aretha, and it also solves the problem of how to place Aretha when she returns to the real world.

She could have lived in this ring.

"Daddy, what is this?" Aresha looked curiously at the soul ring in Ding Yi's hand, and the instinct of the spirit body made her very fond of this thing.

Ding Yi looked at her and explained with a smile: "This is called the Soul Raising Ring, it is very good for you, stay here when you are okay in the future." ”

When Aresha heard this, she nodded obediently and watched Ding Yi put the soul raising ring on her hand. Then, she couldn't wait to dodge into the ring.

Ding Yi only saw that Aresha in his arms turned into a streamer and disappeared into the ring, and the magical scene also made Ding Yi touch the ring on his finger in surprise.

"Aretha, are you inside?" Ding Yi asked, looking at the ring.

Fortunately, there is no one else here, otherwise people would think he is insane!

Talking to a ring, isn't it a neurosis?

Agent?
