The sea of Nari in early autumn is extremely beautiful, and it is at this moment, before the heat has faded, before the late autumn has come, that it retains its vigorous temperature, but without that tiresome heat, it leaves only a pleasant coolness.
As Fisher and Elizabeth stepped out of the carriage, the tangible sea breeze caressed his cheeks like a cold softness, giving him an urge to stretch.
But he couldn't help but glance in a certain direction behind the carriage, and outside the window in that direction, he had seen the eyes and mouth floating in the air before leaving Nari, but now they had disappeared strangely, like a hallucination, which made him wary and a little confused.
"Let's go, Fisher, I've asked the people below to pack up the palace where we're going to live, let's go and have a look."
Elizabeth behind her came at this time, ignoring the servant who was carrying the luggage behind her, and just said to Fisher.
Alicia, who was not in good shape, and Emhart, who was in her arms, were also taken out of the carriage, looking wilted like winter flowers.
The degree of erosion in her body from the chaos of life is getting deeper and deeper.
"Okay."
The so-called palace stands about a few hundred meters from the ocean, at the foot of a verdant mountain, where King Godlin built many generations ago to escape the heat. The Godlyn family had a habit of vacationing here in the middle of summer, just because Elizabeth's birthday was approaching, and she had worked hard before Fisher came, and rarely had time to rest.
After all, this year is the first time she has been to this place since she ascended the throne.
Thinking about it this way, Fisher suddenly felt that he was very much in line with the image of the "demon queen" in the traditional Nari script.
In the past, there was always such a pattern in this story, the monarch who worked hard gradually became depressed after the arrival of a peerless beauty, and wasted the government day and night, so that the world put the blame for the seductive depravity on the woman's head, and she became the devil.
Perhaps Fisher, like them at this moment, would have been innocently arranged by outsiders who did not know the details, saying that it was the "damned Benavides clan who seduced the saint and caused the government to slack", and then tied him to the pillar of shame and flogged him madly.
And then not only Nali's history books, but also the new history books of the Dragon Court in the southern continent, and the new history books of the plane tree in the north all coincidentally appeared such an evil image of the people, and finally led to this writing style becoming a popular stereotype in the world, and in the next few hundred years, there will be such a villain in all works "The Demon Queen of the Country".
But if that's the case, it's not possible until the prophecy of the end of the world is resolved, right?
At this time, the palace and the outside were active because of Elizabeth's arrival, and the royal courtyard, which had been on standby for several years, finally came to test its efficacy.
However, perhaps because it has not been running for too long, it inevitably seems to Fisher that there is a sense of hurry.
Fisher didn't listen to Diane determine what to do, he just watched the maids carry Alicia into the room first, and then he turned to Elizabeth and whispered,
"I'm going to see Alicia, the kid doesn't seem to be feeling well."
But before he could finish speaking, Elizabeth grabbed him by the wrist and whispered to him,
"Then I'll go with you."
Just looking at her physical condition, aren't you at ease?"
Elizabeth hesitated for a moment, then pouted imperceptibly, but did not let go of his hand,
"Okay, I've got a surprise for you in the evening, you remember to come back quickly."
He looked at Elizabeth in front of him, and when she was expecting a response, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, and then watched her touch his lips in surprise, and his face turned slightly red.
The others couldn't see Fisher but only Elizabeth, and Diane, who was talking to the head of Royal Beach in front of her, noticed that the Empress behind her suddenly stopped and touched her lips, and couldn't help but walk up with concern and asked,
"What's the matter, Your Majesty, is there something wrong?"
Seeing Diane come up, Fisher was ready to leave, he squeezed Elizabeth's hand, and in her rather disgusted gaze, he hurriedly followed the servants who were carrying Alicia away, and Elizabeth, who was standing in place, sighed.
But soon she smiled indulgently, and that smile quickly faded, and then looked at Diane with a blank face and said,
"Nothing, let's arrange it."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Diane was silent for a moment, but she didn't seem to smile, just went back to work.
Alicia's location is the side palace of the palace, and at the beginning of the design it was used as a place to entertain guests, and the so-called side palace is like this.
Although the name is a partial palace, it is actually not too far from the main palace where Godlin lived, and standing on the second floor of the side palace, you can see the ocean hundreds of meters away and Godling's palace before that.
Fisher silently followed the two maids in front of her in the corridor of the side palace, and at this time Alicia was squinting uncomfortably, her whole face was red, and she seemed to be in a half-asleep state.
The carriage came up here for five or six hours, and the little ones could not stand this kind of travel, and after soon getting bored, they had to sleep to pass the time.
Although Alicia was more mature than her peers, she could not bear the sleepiness of her body and fell asleep, but she scared Emhart a lot, for fear that she would transform into a monster in the carriage.
However, although she has no tendency to usurp and deform, she has not woken up until now, and she looks very uncomfortable, so that Fisher has to come over to see, and by the way, she is here to try to solve the treasure nature of her body directly.
"Little girl, wake up, we're here."
"Hmm"
"She's still asleep, let's give her a good rest, and we'll call her later."
The two maids quickly dutifully carried Alicia to the prepared room, and after intimately putting her on the bed and covering her with the quilt, seeing that she did not respond to any call, they turned their heads and left to wait next door.
After the two maids slowly walked out of the door, Emhat, who had been pretending to be dead, floated up, sighed and muttered,
"I can move for a while, and I'm almost dyed by the smell of ghosts on her body during this time. You have done all the bad things, Fisher, it is not fair that you stay with Elizabeth and debauch every day, and I am frightened by her side! ”
"Haven't I come to solve this problem?"
"Resolved? Wait, can you use your powers? ”
As soon as Emhart wanted to complain about something, he felt something transparent on Fisher's body squirm in front of him, and even the sealed rank began to surge upward, until it changed back to its original appearance little by little.
But he soon discovered that the secret blessing in this unfamiliar state began to become very unstable, as could be seen in the transparent tentacles that constantly squirmed and trembled on Fisher's body.
This forced Fisher to restrain a bit before the tentacles stabilized.
"Yes, your hard days are coming to an end, thank me."
"Thank you mom, it's not because of you and I that I'm sinned, oh, now that I'm not guilty, I'm still grateful to you, is it a horn?"
Emhart snorted and stood on the still sleepy little Alicia, but he has always been a knife-mouthed tofu heart, although the words are disgusted with Alicia's little ghost, but he still hopes that Fisher will quickly solve the problem that tortures her.
"Don't talk about this, hurry up and do it, otherwise this little ghost is afraid that he will die in a dream."
"Well, don't worry."
Fisher squatted beside her bed, gently reached out and pressed it on the forehead of the red-faced Alicia, and when she felt the existence of the "treasure", the chaos of life hidden in Fisher's body also began to become restless,
"Big brother."
"Alicia, don't be afraid, I'll help you."
"Uh-huh, thank you. Hah."
She seemed to be about to say something, but soon she was out of breath and her body began to shake involuntarily.
Fisher's eyes lit slightly, but his mind had already figured out how to solve the problem before he came.
He crouched on the side of the bed and stretched out his hand to Alicia, and the tentacles wrapped around his arm began to gradually turn from transparent to gold, and the gold in his eyes began to emerge.
Before coming, he unlocked another authority of Azan Rose, the ability of the Collection.
This authority can replicate the abilities of other powers and creations, but it only costs the points of studying the sub-human mother.
According to the manual of Yaren Niang's completion, it is necessary to study double like Rafael and Jasmine before, and it cannot be repeated.
Ha, this is amazing, she doesn't know what to do, think about it carefully, the only possibility is to dig out the Elliog that is now being sealed, Elliog is more open in this regard, and then choose another match
Well, it's a bit too lewd to say.
But fortunately, when unlocking this ability, Yaren Niang gave Fisher a point after completing the manual, which means that he can use this authority to copy something.
He is unsure of how to change the Arcana, but this aspect should be recorded in the third part of the Life Completion Handbook, so the next action will be clear.
He had to copy the nature of the Arcana to himself, then unlock the life supplement to complete the third part of the manual, and then rely on the content of the third part to change Alicia's nature and help her get rid of the chaotic entanglement.
So Fisher placed the golden tentacle on Alicia's forehead and gently recited the name of the god.
"Azanrose, please."
"Goo."
Wrapped in countless illusory suckers that radiated a golden light like bubbles, a certain property in Alicia's body was quickly grasped by the tentacles, and the tentacles were transmitted back into Fisher's body.
At that moment, Fisher's entire body trembled slightly, and he quickly realized that his body had begun to change.
It worked!
He is really transforming into the so-called "treasure"!
It's really a no-brainer.
"Wait a minute, fee. Fisher! What happened to you!? ”
"Whatever."
Fisher didn't feel anything, just felt more comfortable than ever, but at the same time, Emhardt, who was beside him, suddenly let out a sharp hiss, obviously frightened.
This made the confused Fisher stretched out his hand in a daze, and when he looked up, he found that his hand had become translucent at some point, and it was not a human hand at all, but some kind of tentacle-like illusory appearance.
No, what is it?!
Could it be a failure?
"Anyway, look at it, look at it! How did you become a Chaos Seed?! The way you look, you wow, oh my God! ”
Chaos species?
Fisher was frightened, but he hurriedly wanted to get up and find a mirror to see his appearance, but when he got up, his whole body floated directly, as light as a soul without a body, which suddenly reminded him of Renee's ethereal state.
In disbelief, he flew to the bathroom, turned on the shower light and looked at the mirror, which made him dumbfounded.
What caught his eye was an illusory figure that was very similar to his original appearance, but this figure not only had no facial features, but the whole person was like a coffin, with a strange black hole like a black vortex in the position of the brain, and the rest of his limbs were all irregular tentacles, which made him think of the "Pisces" he saw in the star magic at that time.
Just as he was blurring into this form, everything else on his body slipped off, clothes, fluid swords, and other patchwork manuals, but only Yaren Niang's completion manual was still attached to his heart, like a plaster attached to his illusory skin.
"Fisher, you speak! No, how did you become like this, failed? Still."
"No, I seem. No failures"
Fisher stared at the mirror in front of him in a daze, and an incredible thought suddenly occurred in his mind.
He tried to activate the power of the Life Supplement Manual, and in the next second, he quickly changed back to his familiar human form little by little, even better than before, and his face was full of red light.
"You're back again, it's great, you're just in the end"
"No, Emhart."
Fisher opened his mouth and touched his face, becoming more and more incredulous, but he still turned his head to Emhart beside him and muttered,
"I don't seem to be 'turning back' now, but just now, just now I'm really 'turning back'."
"What do you mean?"
At this time, Fisher's brain was also dizzy, but he quickly realized what was going on, but it was too unbelievable for him to accept it for a while.
He had indeed succeeded just now, and he had indeed copied the nature of Alicia's treasure to his own.
Remember the nature of the so-called "treasure"?
That is, no matter how "usurped", his essence will not change.
In other words, when Fisher enters the state of "Arcana", he will revert back to his own essential state, that is, Alicia will be human in nature, no matter how the chaos of her usurpation at night changes.
When Fisher received the nature of the Supreme Treasure, he also returned to his essential state, which meant that no matter how he used his life to complete the manual, he would not deviate from his essence.
And his essence was actually a chaotic seed in a "usurpation state" from beginning to end, and it was not until he unlocked the nature of "Arcana" that he was restored to his original appearance.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but tried to reason,
"As you should have seen, when we went to Nari, we went to the homeland of a transferred person, who should be similar to mine in the true sense of the word. Mother. I could not see my past life in the confusion of my soul, which meant that I was not a normally born being from the beginning, but an existence created by her with various imitations of chaotic authority"
Fisher stretched out his hand, looked at his palm, and continued,
In other words, since I was born, I have been unconsciously maintained as a human being by the [usurpation] authority she copied, and it is even possible that my soul, everything about me, was formed by the authority she copied. But I haven't figured out why my essence is exactly the same as the Chaos Seed. ”
Emhardt opened his mouth, but quickly calmed down and analyzed it reasonably,
"In other words, it's no wonder that you've never been human, no wonder you don't like to do things."
Fisher glanced at him, as if he was already considering the right angle to tear off his book cover, and Emhart hurriedly continued,
However, I do have a little idea as to why you are a Chaos species. The so-called chaos species are actually powerful souls born from the sea of souls in the spirit world, that is to say, the reason why they present such strange and unique properties is related to the sea of souls. You say that you have no past life, and that your soul may have been created by the one who transferred through the power of chaos, so is it possible that there is something else in you that comes from the sea of souls? ”
"Something from the Sea of Souls"
"Yes, you see that those chaos species have the characteristics of yin and yang, if that's the case, shouldn't you become as short and soft as the Sardinian woman? You don't have that kind of nature either, so maybe you have something of the nature of the Sea of Souls on you, right? ”
"I'll think about this later, I'll take care of Alicia's affairs first."
"Yes, that little ghost is probably dying."
He thought about it for a long time without a clue, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to put on his clothes first, and then ask the incarnation of Azanros.
As he slowly dressed himself and picked up the items scattered on the ground, he was once again at Alicia's side.
He took out the Life Supplement Manual and opened it, and sure enough, after he obtained the nature of the Treasure, the contents of the third part that had been locked were also opened to him.
The story of the climber continues in the verse, and after the death of the original climber, of course, there are other admirers who try to challenge the third mountain, but all of them fail in the face of the angel who guards the gate and asks for the treasure.
Until one day, a climber with a treasure came to the angel, and he offered this treasure with both hands, and at the same time said to the angel,
"I have a treasure here, no matter how time flies, no matter how the mountains and rivers change, it will maintain its original appearance; Day or night, it shines like no other; Whether it is a man or a woman, young or old, it will look the same; No matter how it is rubbed and beaten, its weight on the scale will not change in any way Venerable Angel, I wonder if such a gift can be called the most expensive treasure in this world? ”
The angel was astonished, so he took the treasure and said to the climber,
"Is there such a thing? Well, let me show it to God, and let Him determine the value of this treasure. ”
So the angel fluttered his wings and departed, and did not return until seven days later, and said to the climber with great sighs,
"For a hungry man, a meal is worth more than a piece of jewelry; For the supreme who sits on the world, a treasure created with all the power of the world does not know how expensive it should be more than how many meals.
"The scale of value in the world is varied, and for an ant, an angel, or even an all-knowing and all-powerful God, the so-called 'precious' cannot be said to be the same. But if you offer a treasure that makes an ant, a pauper, a king, and an angel equal in the eyes of God, then it is indeed a treasure. ”
So, the angel bowed his head happily and opened the gate behind him, revealing the appearance of a third mountain.
It was a mountain higher than the heavenly vault, and it was full of disembodied angels who existed in the form of nature, immortal, and whose existence had no fixed meaning, but always followed the law that nature and instinct became one.
The mountains were full of dazzling gold, but there were no greedy angels to pick it up, and it was only because it could be used, and it was no different from using broken copper and iron.
Everything here has become like a dream, the changes in material things, the demands of desires have become ethereal and uncertain, except for the majestic mountains, only the highest point that reaches into the sky, still attracts climbers who look upward.
The angel smiled slightly, returned the treasure offered by the climber to him, and said to him,
"Now, continue your journey of authenticity, climber."
Wrapped in a secret blessing, Fisher was reading the contents of the Life Completion Handbook with all his heart, but he didn't know that outside the window of his room, one eye and one mouth floating abruptly in the sky were staring at Alicia on the bed.
Outside the corridor, the two maids who were on standby also wanted to see if Alicia in the next room had woken up, but as soon as they went out, they suddenly found that there were several big men standing in the corridor wearing religious clothes on the east side of the Western Continent.
They were standing in the corridor of the side palace with weapons in hand, staring at Godling's palace outside the window with hatred on their faces.
There, the residence of the Empress Nari.
"Kotloo, the tyrant has stayed"
"Okay, let's."
Their words were interrupted by the maid who opened the door behind them, and the two maids were slightly stunned, and just as they were about to say anything, they saw the firearms they held in their hands and the east side clothes they were wearing, and quickly realized that this was the assassin who had come to assassinate.
The defense here is so tight, not to mention that when the Empress is traveling, they have already blocked the inside and outside three layers inside and outside, and there are cardinals and magic guards, how did they get in?
"You guys. . . Hmmm!! ”
Before the maid could finish speaking, the strong man in front of her was choked and pushed them back into the room at once, and soon the voices of struggle and resistance were all gone.
At this time, on the entire royal beach, countless illusory knots of fate are constantly twisting, and in the hidden corners of various buildings, people from the east side holding weapons are constantly passing through the illusory knots of fate to enter this place to standby.
"Buzz"
Everything was gathering quietly, but the eye and mouth that floated above the air and stared at Alicia in the room remained motionless, except for the embroidered mouth, and spat out more illusory knots to cover the beach.
(There is a change in the evening)
