83. The Blind Man and the Swamp

"Why, this kind of look, if you want to say hateful words, it should be the old man and I am deeper, right?" Seeing that Toth did not speak, the thin old man named Homer said slowly, his tone was flat, just like the last moments of death ten years ago. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"How could you be here, I attacked you by sneak attack, yes, I killed you," Thoth shuddered unconsciously, "The fireball shattered your bosom harp, the silver knife cut off your head, whether it was body or soul, you deserve to die, no one has ever escaped that spell, no one!"

Crazy thoughts echoed in Thoth's brain, he wanted to scream, he wanted to scream, he wanted to question Homer loudly, and finally, his strong professionalism allowed him to stop his gaffe, withdraw his gaze and confront Homer quietly.

"You're really different," Homer said, "the last time I saw you, I was just a little mage who was enslaved by the Immortals and didn't know the future, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, you have grown to this point, and when the Phil City made the covenant, we almost thought you wanted to start a holy war." ”

Toth was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What the hell is going on? Last time we met? Last time it wasn't you ...... last time."

"You cut off my head last time?" a hint of sarcasm came from Homer's mental fluctuations, "so you haven't noticed it yet." ”

"It is an unwritten rule that caravans prohibit all forms of liquor while escorting goods, and besides, an elderly caravan leader would not be interested in your clumsy story, do you know that?" said Homer slowly, "as for killing me, it was only a small attempt on my part, and it has been proven that your argument that the disappearance of the soul is counted as death does not work for me. ”

"It turned out to be you at that time, wait, you said you tried to kill you?you lured me to kill you?" "Thoth recalled the original incident, the fire of the Elven King's City, the ruined Moon Jumping Festival, and the intermittent pursuit, all reasonable and unreasonable things were connected, "No, it was you who tried to get someone to kill you, and then, you chose me, so the elven prohibition will suddenly disappear, and I will learn the Great Prayer Technique, and when we first met, you had already written me into your story, but, why?"

"What do you make of us, alive, dead, what the hell am I?" Homer asks an unanswered question: "I went to the Elven Forest for this question, and I thought I had the secret of life, and then, I decided to kill myself." ”

"Obviously, you've failed. Toth frowned.

"Of course I'm going to fail," Homer said, only the next words made Toth gasp, "I think of life too simply, I'm a bard and a spokesman for will, and you should know a lot about will." ”

"The will chose me, and with His help, I got the Iliad, then became the most famous bard, and then for the rest of the endless years, I ......"

"As one of the seven magic books of Master Mar, the Iliad has two thousand seven hundred and thirteen owners......" Thoth interrupted Homer's words, just after the plan was executed, there was news of the will, this coincidence was a little too strange, his meaning was clear, tell me your true purpose or tell me which of you are one of them?

Homer gave Toth an unexpected answer, "That's all me." ”

"Have you ever heard of the swamp people, an adventurer in Yerevan who was struck by lightning while passing by the edge of a swamp and died, and at the same moment a beam of lightning struck the swamp next to him, and a wonderful spell effect was produced between the two lightning bolts and the swamp, and finally a creature was reborn that was exactly the same as the person who died just now, both in shape and mass. Homer gave a very scary question.

"Let's name this new creature the Swamp Man for the time being, the body of the Swamp Man is exactly the same as the original adventurer, not only the appearance, but also every particle that makes up the body, you know what I'm going to say," Homer laughed at Toth's increasingly ugly expression, Because the particles are exactly the same, then the adventurer's soul and brain have also been completely copied, his knowledge, his memory, his feelings, the birth of the swamp man took over the life of the original adventurer, went on a mission with the team members, went to the tavern to drink together, had a crush on a girl, and eventually formed his own family, so, this swamp man and the adventurer are considered one person?"

"No," Thoth instinctively didn't want to dwell on the issue, but there was a force influencing him to continue, "It's not a matter of materiality, it needs to be ......"

"Why not?" Toth was rudely interrupted, looking at the old man who had lost his usual composure, he probably understood the reason why Homer was here, a little pitiful, but Toth did not intend to show mercy.

"Since you want to solve it on the material level, then even if the matter is the same, but you don't have the connection of time and space, you know, time is a magical thing, if that adventurer is a powerful mage, three seconds before death, activated the time replication and six seconds later, can you pass?" Thoth laughed in the spirit link, but the laughter was a little cruel.

"To put it a little simpler, since you talked about the swamp people, for the swamp people, there is no memory of death, then, I killed Homer, do you know how I killed it?"

Thoth's words were like a solid giant hammer, slamming heavily on Homer, making him seem to age dozens of years in an instant, but unexpectedly, Homer gave Toth a positive answer.

"I know, yes, I know, I am Homer, I am ......" The spiritual link from Homer was suddenly interrupted, and the two talked a lot, but for the people around them, they only looked at each other for a long time, and before he could react, the new link took his spiritual power, "I am Homer, the twenty-thousand, seven hundred and fourteenth owner of the Iliad. ”

"Is that the case, does it fix the bug in this toy?" Thoth suddenly laughed, was this the kind of thing he had killed at such a great cost?

"There is no solution to this question, and it is enough to say that no one can accept the answer to the question, and He told me that I am the bearer of Homer' memories, an independent soul. Homer did not delve into the personal pronouns used by Thoth, perhaps because the will did not understand the meaning of the different pronouns.

"That's a good idea, I thought Yerevan's Will of the World was just an amnestic that could erase the existence outside of the setting. ”

"Perhaps you have a misunderstanding of Him," Homer explained, "the surveillance phenomenon is only to prevent the spread of evil gods and the like too quickly, and there are no restrictions on the existence of so-called gods, although doing so would cause additional distress to the native gods, but I think you can understand it." ”

"That's right, the primordial gods are dying, is it us next?" Toth silently thought, even if it was the most difficult exam for the mage of the academy, his history score was definitely a perfect score, what is the will of the world, no one else needs to say.

"Since you think so, don't force it," Homer said flatly, as if seeing through Thoth's thoughts, "He told me that he would get an answer from you, but I didn't expect it to end like this, but to thank you for letting me out of that fate, I give you a piece of advice, don't go to that island, if you don't want to be like I was before." ”

Toth frowned, the island Homer was talking about must be a happy town, and asked, "What's there?"

Homer didn't give an answer, "I can only reveal so much, and any more will be a problem." ”

"If that's the case, then it's even more important, isn't this the kind of work that legendary mages do?"

"I don't think he said it to you. In the spirit world, Celia's consciousness appeared, and it seemed that she had been here for a while, at least, the conversation between the two should have been heard indiscriminately.

This situation could only be the reason for one of the two sides of the spiritual link, and Toth looked sharply at Homer, who smiled mysteriously and said slowly—

"He knows everything, but he doesn't care. ”
