Chapter 354: William Dodd

Leo is very aware of his situation, according to common sense, his body should have died on the battlefield back then, and the cyborg warrior as the main consciousness should have died in that conflict, but the two people who should have died are alive in the current state of different spirits and bodies, which makes his current life form present a state between life and death.

Leo doesn't know much about the current situation of his body and soul, but the only thing he can be sure of is that his current state is extraordinary, and his body alone can easily contain the imprints of various gods, and it is already extraordinary to integrate the power of various gods.

"Are they preparing for the coming?" Leo suddenly remembered that he had seen a book on the underground church in Rembrandt, which was among the banned books, which mentioned the process of the underground church performing the descent ceremony, and this content made Leo think of his own situation.

In the time of the descent ceremony recorded in that book, the sacrifice that is the carrier of the deity will be killed in the final stage of the descent ceremony, and when it is between death and life, the descent ceremony is completed, and the deity possesses the sacrifice to complete the final descent process.

Now Leo's body is between life and death, and it is not in this state for a short time, it is forever fixed in this state, which means that he is the best descendant of the gods of the Velen world.

As Leo's psionic level increased, and he gained more and more mystical knowledge, he also learned more and more about the gods of the Velonon World, and he also realized that the gods of the Velond World were very different from the psionic beings of the universe.

Although the gods of the Velen world, except for those false gods, the rest of the gods are omega-level higher beings, but there are essential differences among these gods, and the difference between these gods makes them have completely different results in the end when facing the same catastrophic things.

For example, the Mother of Plants has a real body, and it is by virtue of the continuous evolution of her body that she eventually sublimates into a god, so her power comes entirely from herself, no matter what happens, as long as there is no accident in her original body, she will not disappear, and she does not even need believers.

For example, for example, the gods born of a certain belief in the world, their power and even themselves come from the belief of the world, and once the belief in the world is shaken, then no matter how powerful this god is, it will fall and disappear.

This is why when the world of Velun entered the age of the steam industry, a large number of gods, whether it was the evil gods of the underground church or the righteous gods of the Orthodox Church, were all affected and disappeared from this world one by one.

The state of the Mother of Plants is almost the same as that of the real omega-level advanced life forms in the universe, the only difference is that it cannot be separated from the huge star of the Velen World, and the essence of other gods without origin bodies is completely different from that of cosmic psionics.

The only way for these gods, who are gradually declining due to the transformation of the minds of the secular people, to save themselves now is to have a body that can contain the power of their gods, so that they can descend to the world of Velon, and live like normal people, and Leo's body should obviously be the body that such gods dream of.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Leo was lost in thought after listening to his words, Eyeless Mama asked with some curiosity after waiting for a while.

Leo replied calmly and said, "I'm thinking about some divine things." But I don't think you like the things I think. As he spoke, he asked again, "Do you know what is going on in Heicheng?"

Eyeless Mama replied, "You have to ask Alice about the Black City, because she is the only one who has ever entered the Black City." ”

Leo asked again, "Speaking of Alice, she mentioned that there is a way to get out of this island......"

"Yes, there is a way to get out of here, provided that the person leaving is a living person, of course. Without waiting for Leo to finish asking, Eyeless Mama nodded in acknowledgment of this statement, and added: "As for the specific method and location of leaving, only Alice knows, I don't know very well, but I know that the location should be in the Black City." ”

Hearing such an affirmative and quick answer from Eyeless Mama, Leo was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Have there been any examples of successful departures before?"

"Yes. Eyeless Mama nodded, and quickly added, "It's a pity that he's dead, dead here." ”

"It's dead. Leo frowned, suddenly thought of something, and said, "You said that the person must be the one who studied the mysteries of this island, right?"

"Yes, that's him. "He left the island through the way he found, but for other reasons he managed to return here, but unfortunately his body was no longer suitable for this place, and he had to grow old and eventually die." ”

Leo became more and more interested in this man at the moment, so he asked, "What is his name?"

Eyeless Mama didn't hide it, and said truthfully: "He is also from England, his name is William Dodd, and he has the same surname as you, both have the surname Dodd, if it weren't for the fact that the surname Dodd is very common in the Kingdom of England, I might think that he is your relative, because your appearance is very similar in some places." ”

When Leo heard this, he felt a little strange, and he couldn't tell where the weirdness was, and the idea of asking if he could see the legacy of William Dodd was gone.

After changing his mind, Leo thought for a moment and asked a new question, "Leon Belmont asked me to go to the cliff where the Thunderbird is located to fetch a statue of the god, do you know about that statue?"

"She actually asked you to get the statue?" The look on Eyeless Mama's face was around, she stood up from her chair and asked urgently, "Then did you get it?"

"Yes, I got it. Leo nodded and said, "After getting it, something happened on the island......

After Leo then took him to the statue of the god Gaia, he told about the various changes that had taken place on the island, and he also talked about the black mist, the eyeball that the night god sighed in the black mist, and the mysterious power that dispelled the eyeball.

Eyeless Mama listened to what Leo said, her face was always very solemn, and she couldn't help cursing Alice a few times in the middle, and finally after listening to it, she calmed down and sat back in her chair a little decadently. I don't know what I'm thinking when I keep my head down.

Leo didn't bother her, but waited quietly for her to recover from her musings.

It didn't take long, and Eyeless Mama sighed heavily, raised her head, and said to herself, "She finally took this step, and in the end she was ready to do it." ”

"Can you explain?" said Leo in a deep voice.

Instead of responding immediately, Eyeless Mama asked Leo, "Where is that idol now?"

Leo was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed to his head, "Here." ”

"Huh?" Obviously, this answer was completely beyond the expectation of Eyeless Mama, she thought that the idol had been taken by Alice Belmont, and that the idol had been lost in the White City, but she could not have imagined that the idol would be integrated into Leo's body.

"You know what that statue is, right?" Leo asked tentatively as he saw a lot of meaning in Eyeless's reaction.

Apparently still basking in surprise, Eyeless nodded instinctively in response to Leo's inquiry, but soon realized that she shouldn't have done so, and shook her head remedially.

But after she got to Leo's look, she already knew that the remedy was useless, so she could only sigh, and with a somewhat frustrated expression, she took out the obsidian she had just gotten from Leo, threw it on the table next to her without cherishing it, and said, "It's useless, this thing is useless." ”

Leo looked at Eyeless Mama with a completely different attitude from just now, and did not urge the other party to say what he knew, but quietly waited for the other party to recover by himself.

It took a while for Eyeless Mama to recover from her frustration, at least superficially, and said to Leo, "I'm sorry, I was a little out of shape just now, mainly because what you did was too big. ”

"Does that statue have anything to do with the survival of this island?" asked Leo tentatively.

Eyeless Mama nodded, shook her head again, and said: "I don't know about this, it's just that when William studied some ancient mysteries back then, he said that he had found a way to make this island disappear and all the victims on the island could be freed, but the method was not perfect at that time, he didn't say much, but he mentioned that one of the keys was the statue of Thunderbird Cliff." Later, because there was no further news, I thought that his research had reached a bottleneck and perhaps had been abandoned, so I did not follow up further, and only on the day of William's death did he tell Alice that he had found a way to destroy the island. ”

Leo asked suspiciously, "Do you think the method that William got after his research will be useful?"

"I just know that nothing has gone wrong with what William has done in the past, and if he says it will be used again, then it will definitely be used again. Eyeless seemed to have great respect and trust in William Dodd, so she responded in an affirmative tone, and continued to add to what she had just said, saying, "Later, Alice came to me, and he wanted me to help her, and he also wanted me to reveal some plans, but I hesitated at the time and did not agree to her proposal. ”

"Why hesitate, don't you want to help these sufferers get out of here?" asked Leo.

"Do you think I'm like a dead man?" Eyeless Mama didn't answer, but asked rhetorically in a leap of thought.

"Not really. Leo said honestly.

"I feel the same way. Eyeless Mama nodded and said, "I also need to eat, I will be hurt the same, I will feel the same pain, and I will also have all kinds of emotions that any living person has, so is there a difference between us and a living person?"

Leo replied briefly, "No." ”

"Yes, we are no different from living people, the only difference is that we can never have children. Eyeless Mama sighed again and said, "We are all suffering like living people, and being able to come here is almost like a second life. But if it really follows Alice's approach, then what difference does it make if we slaughter these victims, now you know why I hesitated at the time. ”

"What does that idol have to do with this island?" asked Leo with some urging.

"I don't know exactly what the relationship was, but William found out that the statue had been around for a very long time, almost at the same time as the war that changed the world. Without further circle, Eyeless said, "However, on the day of our lord's coming, my lord mentioned that the statue is one of the foundations of this island, and that if it moves, it will cause a series of unpredictable results, just like what you have seen, and this is only the beginning. ”

"Will you be affected here, too?" asked Leo.

"Isn't it being affected? Eyeless Mama didn't seem to want to say more, and responded simply.

Leo asked, "What kind of statue is that god?"

Eyeless Mama responded. "I don't know the name of this deity, but I know a very old deity, and she was not born in our world, but in the void outside the world, and she is so great and noble that even my lord can only see the splendor of this ancient god by looking up. ”

Leo was not surprised by Eyeless Mama's answer, as one of the oldest omega-level higher creatures in the universe, Gaia's strength could not be described in any words, and most of the omega-level higher creatures were probably the same as ordinary people in front of her.

Leo picked up the obsidian on the table and asked, "Is our trade going to go on now?"

"Of course we have to continue," Mama Eyeless seemed to have made a decision, and said, "Since Alice has already started, then I shouldn't hesitate any longer." Mr. Leo, if you have any questions, you can continue to ask, I will definitely tell you everything I know, but I hope that you will be able to help Alice with her plan, I believe that her plan is completed, and you will be able to leave here. ”

"Isn't there any other way to get out of here?" asked Leo, frowning.

Eyeless Mama shook her head and said, "If before you take the statue, you still have a chance to leave this island the same way William left, but now ......"

Leo asked, "Did Alice know that if I moved the idol, something would happen?"

Eyeless Mama didn't answer, but the answer was obvious.

Leo was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you know what those parasites are in the obsidian?"

Seeing Leo continue to ask, Eyeless Mama breathed a sigh of relief, because this meant that Leo and her trade would continue and would not blame Alice for her previous behavior, so after hearing the inquiry, she quickly replied, "That's the seed of the gods." ”
