Chapter 18: The Spirit of the Artifact
Dangdang!
Alice tried to push Cross back, but all attacks were blocked. Alice immediately returned the spear from a spear to a small, saber-like form.
"Xiaobai, don't be discouraged, we still have a chance to win!"
Alice comforted Xiaobai and began to walk with Cross. The gun in her hand, which was reduced back to her saber form, suddenly freed up Alice's mobility and made her more flexible.
Suddenly, there was a new scene on the field.
Lifting a heavy shield in his hand, the degree of flexibility was not enough, and the three lions under his crotch were not as flexible as Xiaobai, and the advantage he had just established disappeared in an instant.
However, Cross's self-confidence has never declined.
"Master, it seems that this time Cross does not intend to win. He's just testing Alice. When Pandora saw this, she had already come to the conclusion that Lu Guan couldn't figure it out.
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and buy Alice Victory!"
Pandora was speechless for her stupid master, and it was such an obvious move, Lu Guan didn't even hurry up to place a bet.
What does it mean to have money and not make it?
What a fool to represent!
"But, how do you know..."
Lu Guan couldn't make up his mind, after all, this was not his money, and if he lost it, Alice would punish him, and he would be finished.
"Listen carefully, my foolish master. ”
Pandora sighed and said to Lu Guan.
"Listen?
Lu Guan pricked up his ears, and there were shouts and cheers all around, or whispering voices, as well as the roars of the two sub-divine beasts on the field, and the sound of Alice and Cross clashing weapons.
These voices were so noisy that Lu Guan felt annoyed when he heard them.
"Nothing?"
"Listen carefully, pay attention to the red thread wrapped around Cross's wrist, and concentrate on feeling it. Pandora's voice was full of temptation, and one couldn't help but want to follow that temptation.
Lu Guan couldn't resist Pandora's temptation, otherwise how would he have been brought to the Divine Domain? It's not that he can't stand the intoxicating and beautiful voice of this artifact!
When!
Gradually, the sound of the weapons clashing disappeared, and gradually the surrounding shouts also disappeared, and even Lu Guan's vision became hazy as if covered with a layer of mist.
As his surroundings blurred, Lu Guan struggled more and more to think about the scene in front of him, wondering what was calling to him behind the mist.
"Help me!"
"Who's going to help me?"
Calls like these became clearer and clearer, from far to near, and finally reached Lu Guan's ears. When this voice was so clear that he could hear it without deliberately listening to it, Lu Guan was also a little flustered.
"Who, who's there?"
It seemed that Lu Guan's voice had also reached that side, and suddenly the hazy picture became as red as blood, and a terrible scream exploded in Lu Guan's ears.
"Ahh
His eyes were suddenly dyed blood-red, and the heavy smell of blood transferred from Lu Guan's nose to his body, rolling and boiling in his stomach.
"Damn, what the hell?!"
This fright, Lu Guan was in a cold sweat. At the same time, the surrounding scene changed back to the original dueling arena, and the noisy sounds around returned to Lu Guan's ears.
Many people around looked at Lu Guan strangely, looking like, 'Are you sick', so Lu Guan ran out in a gray manner, squatting in the corner of the Colosseum retching for a long time.
Wiping his mouth clean, Lu Guan asked Pandora in the depths of his soul, "What happened to that one just now, why are there still female ghosts?"
Lu Guan didn't understand, what was the strange scene just now? Could it be an illusion?
"Of course it's not a hallucination, it's a picture I visualized after I visualized the spirit of the artifact. ”
Pandora replied lightly: "I can digitize my emotions, not only the emotions of various races, but also the emotions of the artifact." Remember what I told you?
Gods and artifacts are essentially similar, one is to perform divine magic through the arrangement of divine power, and the other is to use divine power to perform magical powers through the talent after birth, and the two are very similar. So, every artifact has a soul like me. You can also treat them as human beings. ”
"People are the same?"
The first time Lu Guan heard of this kind of thing, after he came to the Divine Domain, he had never heard that an artifact was a life, not a weapon.
"Yes, the artifact in Cross's hand is by no means an artifact obtained through ordinary means. The essence of this artifact is mutilated, the spirit of that artifact is on the verge of collapse, and if there is no master who can withstand her divinity, she may collapse at any time.
I guess Cross himself didn't know about it. If it continues to be used like this, it will pollute the divinity of Cross himself, and when the artifact collapses in the end, it will cause the purity of the divinity of Cross himself to drop by at least seventy or eighty. ”
Pandora told Lu Guan what she knew, and Lu Guan was also shocked.
"What do you mean to be mutilated?"
Lu Guan didn't understand a little, Pandora said too much at once, so he couldn't understand it at once.
"Artifacts are born after the birth of gods. The method of making the artifact, I tell you is useless. To put it simply, since the artifact has no owner, it will become a wild artifact, and the spirit of the artifact of the wild artifact has no owner, which causes its divinity to become unstable. It's like this second-level high-level artifact, I'm afraid there has been no owner for countless years, the divinity of the spirit of the artifact is on the verge of shattering, there is no master who can maintain the divinity, and her solution is only death. ”
Lu Guan nodded, and suddenly thought of Pandora and asked, "Are you okay with me?"
"Rest assured, the artifact has divinity, and the divine power operates on its own, endlessly. It has nothing to do with whether the owner has divinity or not. Master, it's like the sustenance of the soul of the artifact, just like your parents, do you think you would have yourself without your parents?"
"Well, without parents, did I pop out of a crack in a stone? ”
Lu Guan replied heartlessly.
Pandora didn't care, and continued to explain: "That's right, when the artifact goes through a long time, from the beginning of the nostalgia for the master, to the later time smooths out the thoughts of the master, and finally the spirit of the artifact begins to question its own existence..., this is a dangerous signal, once you start to doubt your own existence, the divinity will fundamentally begin to collapse and disintegrate. ”
"I see. ”
Lu Guan understood that the crazy female ghost just now was the appearance of the other party's divine collapse, which really frightened him.
"Master, you have two paths to go now. ”
Pandora smiled, and the tone was as insidious as it could be. But Lu Guan's little heart was pounding, and he felt that it seemed that his opportunity had come again?
"You say, you say. ”
"First, leave this Cross alone, and wait for him to collapse, you lure Alice to get rid of him, and the Edwards will definitely take credit for you. When the time comes, your position in the Edward family will be more secure. ”
Pandora is really insidious, but Lu Guan likes this idea, but Lu Guan still has some scruples and says: "However, if I make a meritorious service, it means that I have offended the Black Iron Knights! ”
"Master, you're a lot smarter!"
"Hey, hey. ”
Lu Guan smiled shyly and said modestly: "You teach each other well." ”
Ignoring Lu Guan's sarcasm, Pandora continued to speak: "The second way, master, aren't you unable to use your divine powers? ”
"What do you mean?"
As soon as he heard the word 'divine power', Lu Guan was clever and asked Pandora seriously.
"The other party is an ownerless artifact, and it is also an artifact that stores divine power and can transform divine power into the master's use, if you have this artifact, you don't have to worry that you can't use divine power, and you also have a certain ability to protect yourself!"
Listening to Pandora's words, Lu Guan's eyes lit up, his tongue licked his lips, and he made up his mind: "No matter what, I must also understand this artifact!"
"That's right, my master. ”
"I still have a question, isn't Cross the owner of this artifact now?"
Pandora sighed and said, "Being able to use it and whether it is the master or not are two different things. Divinity does not meet the criteria for the selection of artifacts, and even if you can barely use them, the artifact will not recognize you as its master. ”
Lu Guan nodded thoughtfully, he was - is he Pandora's master? If so, then what are Pandora's criteria for choosing a master?
Back at the dueling venue, Lu Guan's eyes were full of red threads wrapped around Cross's wrists.
Now that the battle has entered the white-hot stage, Alice and Cross, who is holding a giant shield, have launched a chase and counterattack battle in the dueling arena.
Cross's reserves of divine power are obviously amazing, and he uses his divine power to maintain a fierce movement battle with Alice.
You come and go between the two, and you can't open the glue.
"Master, the victory or defeat between the two lies in the victory or loss between the two sub-divine beasts. But apparently this little wolf is going to be the better one, and Alice should be winning. Hurry up and place your bets, you can make a little money. ”
Under Pandora's reminder, Lu Guan hurriedly ran out to suppress Alice's victory.
Sure enough, Alice's flexibility when sitting down is much higher than that of the three-headed lion, and the high-speed movement can make a sharp stop and turn without slowing down at all, creating an angle for Alice to attack.
The sword-shaped gun in Alice's hand instantly changed into a second form, the appearance of a double-barreled firearm, only to hear a bang, and the divine power shot at the feathers on Cross's helmet.
Bang Dang!
"You lost. ”
Alice held the fire hammer and said coldly to Cross.
"Oops, I didn't expect your artifact to be able to freely transform forms, and there are three forms: long guns, fire guns, and short swords. Amazing, amazing, really worthy of the genius girl of the Edward family, I lost this duel. ”
Cross's helmet was knocked down, but Close's expression did not show frustration and remorse for losing, but on the contrary, he seemed very relaxed and comfortable.
"But, Alice, the Royal Academy admission is the main thing. Since I lost, then I'll tell you the gossip, it is said that this actual battle needs to be participated in by myself and my attendants. Okay, we'll see you then. ”
Cross left the dueling arena with ease, and Lu Guan almost didn't bite his tongue open.
Do you need to participate in actual combat with your attendants?
So he's going to participate too?!
