Chapter Seventy-One: Purification
"The life form has been resolved, it is recommended to open the inventory and use Silly White." Zhao Xida's crisp voice came from the spiritual link.
Wu Ming's eyelids jumped wildly and replied in the spiritual link: "Use Elizabeth? When did she become a prop? ”
"The solution has been sent to Elizabeth via a spirit link." Zhao Xida was noncommittal to Wu Ming's question, but instead sent a message to the latter in the spirit link, "Please follow the instructions to open a gap in the shield." ”
Although Zhao Jida does not have Wu Ming's ability to be meticulous enough to see through the essence of dust at a glance, as long as the latter is willing to connect with the spirit, she can perfectly share what she sees and hears with others, and she can also indirectly analyze the life form of dust particles in this way, and it is not difficult to find out the weaknesses and countermeasures from them.
The Doll Girl is as reliable as ever against the enemy.
Elizabeth also replied energetically in the spiritual link: "Big brother! What to do with the dolls just told us! Let's wrap it up with us! ”
The reason why she calls herself 'we' is simply because the sequelae of her split personality after recovering other individuals are not over......
Wu Ming controlled the auxiliary device to open a very small gap in the activated shield.
As soon as the gap in the shield appeared, the clouds of smoke and fog surging like a storm surged along the gap like a shark that smelled blood, and pounced on Elizabeth who was blocking the gap!
Elizabeth, who was not protected by any supernatural power and exuded a huge vitality at all times, was like a piece of delicious fat to these dust particles that endured the desire for flesh, and the dust particles that poured into the shield adhered to the girl's white skin, gradually invading the defenseless body along the pores and respiratory tract.
They each showed their magical powers and burrowed into Elizabeth's flesh and blood, and the instinct engraved in the depths of their consciousness drove them to quickly devour the girl's flesh and blood to complete self-replication and multiplication. As long as they can multiply and reproduce enough dust particles, they can reconstruct their personality, consciousness and self in their bodies, and they can forcibly seize this young and energetic body and experience the feeling of returning to the human body again!
Countless sacrifices over the centuries have taught them all too well that the flesh they have taken in this way will not last long. In a day or two, or a few hours, the snatched flesh would disintegrate from the over-copied dust particles, turn into a cloud of smoke and fall into a thousand cuts again.
Even if this tranquility is a dream that lasts only a few hours, they will be like moths that pounce on the flames.
But this time, the progress of devouring was a little different, when the dust particles invaded Elizabeth's body and prepared to devour the flesh, they found that the invincible erosion transformation was hindered for the first time, and the flesh and blood of this girl were not only not transformed into fine dust particles as expected, but even devoured them in turn!
But they were all just scattered thoughts and consciousnesses, and the subtle connections between them were cut off, and there was no way to organize any effective resistance, and the dust particles that had invaded Elizabeth's body before in a few breaths quietly disappeared into her flesh and blood.
Before their minds melted, they faintly heard two voices coming from them.
"You're stealing food again!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I couldn't help but taste the taste for a while, so let's get started! ”
Elizabeth licked her lips, and when she sighed in her heart that the taste of dust particles was not as good as the pork ribs roasted by the puppet, she also sang the mysterious ballad that Wu Ming had heard several times and didn't know what language it was composed of.
Although Wu Ming still doesn't understand what the lyrics mean, the melody of the ballad this time is no longer as ethereal and ethereal as before, and it is easy to remind people of the summer starry sky. Rather, it was filled with a sad and soothing taste, just like a young girl strolling through the desolate battlefield strewn with corpses, singing with her clear voice for the souls of the dead who died on the battlefield.
Elizabeth's hair didn't grow long or change color due to the use of supernatural powers, only her eyes turned a patch of turquoise to show supernatural characteristics, but they were enough to integrate supernatural powers into her singing voice and use the vibrations of the air to transmit it.
The song carries the extraordinary power of washing people's hearts, the regret of pursuing eternal life, the hatred of falling into the arms of this, and the pain caused by eternal life and eternal calamity are all soothed in her clear and long singing, and the consciousness and personality trapped here without transcendence gradually calm down.
Faceless and unclear figures loomed out.
Those are souls who have been regained their senses under the Requiem, who can reconstruct themselves, consciousness, and memories from the dust particles of others, but are also affected by the thoughts and consciousness contained in those dust particles. Time flies, and they don't remember much about their original appearance, and those memories, experiences and lives that are unique to them are also unconsciously mixed with the memories of outsiders, and they can only appear in this vague way.
They said goodbye to Elizabeth, who had helped them out of pain, and offered their most sincere thanks and blessings.
"Thank you, beautiful big sister......"
"Thank you for helping us end the pain with no end in sight......"
"This kind of immortality was wrong from the beginning...... Thanks to you, you put an end to this wrong path......"
"Ah...... Yes! Now I can finally rest in peace...... Thank...... May your kindness light your way forward......"
"Thank you...... Those who survived are still ...... They were in a cave and a ruined temple on the west side of the village...... Fast...... ...... before it's too late."
Wu Ming's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Which ones?" Let's be clear, where is the cave at the west end of the village?! ”
But the soul only shook for a moment, unable to answer his question anymore and drifted into the air.
"The dragon individual Siegfei told me privately that she didn't like Elizabeth and the songs she sang......" Zhao Xida, who was standing beside Wu Ming obediently, suddenly muttered in the spiritual link.
Wu Ming glanced at the puppet girl rather strangely, and after seeing that she didn't continue, he turned his attention back to the shadows of the smoke and mist.
However, the souls that regained their senses never mentioned the survivors again, and when the stormy souls dissipated, the dust particles changed again.
The dust particles came and went, and the faint light visible to the naked eye also jumped and passed between the other dust particles, starting from Elizabeth and quickly extending outward, and in the blink of an eye, a bright sea of stars composed of billions of dust particles glowing together appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The bright sea of stars is no longer as ethereal as it was when it was a shadow of smoke, dust and fog, and the bits of light gradually form traces of light and connect into lines, and the lines intertwine and turn into a shimmering grid.
The grid became denser and denser, and finally the void was completed and turned into a lump of pure white meat like glutinous rice dumplings, which fell from the sky and the sun!
Rumble!!!
With a deafening roar, the pure white flesh ball fell to the ground with a bang, and the huge mass and pressure smashed Wu Ming's unfolded shield from an invisible state to reveal the outline of a hexagonal hive, and the mountains shook for a while, and the earthquake trembled!
"It's done!" Elizabeth, who stopped singing, clapped her hands with a smile on her face, stretched out her fingers to break the pure white tentacles that came in through the gap, and prepared to send them to her mouth as a squid leg, "According to the doll's requirements, all the special particles that can induce dust particles to produce aggregation phenomena have been connected by me with extraordinary power!" ”
Zhao Jida slapped the tentacles in Elizabeth's hand with an expressionless face: "The manager said that you are not allowed to eat indiscriminately!" ”
"That's what Big Brother used to restrain you! Besides, this thing is a snack for me! ”
"That's not going to work either!"
"You two have a really good relationship...... Wu Ming said casually as he looked at the two girls who were fighting each other every day, and then under their unanimous objections, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the wriggling and growing pure white flesh mass at the gap in the shield.
The strange light when the containment space was activated flashed, and the pure white flesh that covered the sky and the sun suddenly disappeared, and was taken back into the containment space by Wu Ming.
The active and conscious dust particles are gone, and the pure white flesh mass transformed from them has disappeared, and the Immortal Village has once again returned to dead silence.
The buildings, animals, farmland, fish ponds, peach groves, and even plants around the village have all quietly disappeared after the smoke and fog have returned to their original shapes and the storm has raged, and now only a desolate and dead gravel field remains, and it is completely impossible to see that there was once a small village here.
That secluded and beautiful small mountain village was just a dream of 'their', and now that they woke up, the village naturally turned into nothingness in an instant.
It was late at night, and the moon was high.
Wu Ming picked up the white tentacles that fell to the ground, disarmed the shield and life support module to recharge the auxiliary device, and greeted Zhao Xida and Elizabeth: "Let's go, it's time for us to find those survivors next......"
