Chapter 270: The Maniac

What ...... something?"

Before the ferryman could say this.

In the next second, a glowing white ball of light burst out from Bering's hand, heading straight for the ferryman's face!

Well?!

The ferryman's face was slightly stunned.

She subconsciously wanted to retreat, but unexpectedly, the white ball of light seemed to be conscious, and no matter how much the ferryman flickered and moved, he always chased after her!

Damn it!

For the first time, the ferryman's expression fluctuated slightly.

She didn't know what it was, but instinct told her that it was best not to take it.

She jumped two steps back, and at the same time said, "What a funny little trick, but if you ......."

However, she didn't finish her sentence.

Just as she retreated to the surface of the sea, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from below sea level and grabbed her feet!

What is this?!

The ferryman's heart was full of waves.

She looked down slightly, only to realize that it was a "soul" that was holding her hand.

The soul looked unconscious, giggling like a psychopath, and his fit with the space was so high that the ferryman didn't even notice him in the first place, but was entangled by him.

What the hell?!

She glanced up at Bering across from her.

"That's how you like to put all this mess in your consciousness space?"

The ferryman's tone was tinged with anger: "Let people intrude into your private sphere, is this your hobby? Very well, if you like it, then I'll let you have enough fun when I get back to the Narrow of Time!"

Hearing this, Bering just smiled.

"It's up to you to enjoy that kind of play," he said, holding out his hand and laying his fingers flat, "and anyway, you should pay more attention to yourself now." You know, if you're not careful, you'll be devoured."

The words fell, and the ring on Bering's hand flashed slightly.

Soon, the white light cluster that had been chasing the ferryman quickly burst into a burst of bright light!

In the ferryman's eyes, she even felt like she saw a sun rise in front of her!

A familiar feeling crept through her heart.

Could this thing be ......

With his toes on the surface of the sea, the ferryman maneuvers his body and glides above the water.

At this moment, she looked like a figure skater, the pale spray of the water beneath her feet, which gathered and scattered with her movements, and finally sank to the bottom of the sea.

If it is purely from the outside, she is quite comfortable.

But in fact, the ferryman is in a bad mood right now.

On the one hand, it was because of the ball of light that was in hot pursuit and made her feel wrong. On the other hand, it is because the space of Bai Ling makes her a little uncomfortable at the moment.

In the final analysis, this is Bering's consciousness space. As she said before, this is Bering's "private domain".

Anyone who breaches into the other's home can be evicted, as is the case with ferrymen. The more active she is in this consciousness space, the more likely she is to be rejected by this space until she is completely driven out.

This is something she doesn't want to see.

According to her original purpose, she should have hidden in this space and followed Bering back to the present.

As a being related to time, the existence of the ferryman is unique, just like Bering. Using the ability to predict the future between the future and the present, they do not have multiple "selves", but rather from time itself, and as the correlators of the ability to time, they themselves have "uniqueness".

Otherwise, time would have collapsed by itself.

Therefore, following Bering back and forth between the unreal and the real does not make her disappear.

However, the current situation is no longer a question of whether she can follow Bering far, but whether this consciousness space will drive her out of here if she continues to stay in this place and make a fuss.

If you are really kicked out......

That's a bit of a problem.

The ferryman subconsciously gritted his teeth, and a more complicated expression flashed in his eyes.

She braked hard and stopped in place, dodging the white ball of light.

"Wait," she said, "pause a little."

"I probably understand the current situation," she pointed at Bering, "you were there to get me into your consciousness space from the beginning, intending to surround me and trap me here?"

Hearing this, Bering smiled.

"Guess?"

The ferryman was not angry at Bering's perfunctory, but said seriously, "I know what you are thinking of - through this 'law', to restrict my movements, to seal me in this ball of light. As a spirit being, it is normal to stay in the law. But if there is someone in the law, I will have to deal with that existence head-on."

"What you're trying to do is use this to keep me down. You can't kill me, and you don't intend to kill me. I think it's probably because of who I am—was I created by a being that you intend to deal with, so you need to observe my actions?"

Well?

Bering glanced at her.

He didn't expect the ferryman to be able to think of so many things in such a short time.

As if seeing that he was recognized by Bering, the ferryman said calmly, "It's not hard to guess, my birth is full of mysteries, and there is also a "deliberate" element in my encounter with you. Not to mention that I've been pulled out of the Narrow Chambers of Time against you, so I can fully understand the current situation."

After a slight pause, the ferryman said, "But I don't think your method will necessarily work."

"If you want to suppress me through the law, then the first person who has mastered this law is afraid that the spiritual power is stronger than mine. Although I have not attempted to do so, I suspect that the suppression of the law is not out of nowhere. The driving force is most likely a person's spiritual power."

"On the other hand, if I really were created by some being, then I am afraid that all my actions now will be watched. No matter what you do, I'm afraid someone will notice. If you really want to deal with someone, I am afraid it is not wise to let them know your purpose in advance."

Finally, the ferryman concluded, "So, at the end of the day, there is room for discussion between us at the moment. If it's really necessary, I can leave you out for now."

Looking at her final finish, Bering pursed her lips.

When he said these words, the ferryman was very sincere. And according to what Bering knew about her during this time, she was not a person who was good at deception.

Therefore, her sentence is quite weighty.

After all, the most difficult thing that Bering needs to face so far comes from her.

Therefore, it is relatively rational to agree to the ferryman's request now.

But.

"But," Bering said, "I refuse."

Well?

The ferryman who heard this was a little incredulous: "You...... Refuse?"

Why refuse?

Didn't he realize that if his plan didn't succeed, there was a high chance that he would pay a great price?

Even if it is now in his consciousness space, the existence that created itself must not be hidden by the small sea. If there is a deviation, then it is very likely that He will perceive that all of Bering's plans and arrangements will be over!

This one

What is wrong with the guy that he doesn't want to accept it?

Before the ferryman could figure it out.

Bering stretched out his hand again.

On his fingers, the light of the ring flickered slightly.

"There's one thing you're thinking about," he said kindly, "I did intend to seal you somewhere, but that's not the rule. No matter how stupid I am, I know that the law can only be occupied by one person."

"What I really want to seal you away is someone's heart."

When he finished saying this.

The original white ball of light instantly shone brightly.

A pale figure emerged from the white ball of light, and in the blank and surprised gaze of the ferryman, he opened his arms and quietly hugged her.

Looking at the white figure in front of him, the ferryman said in disbelief, "This is ...... Impossible?!"

"How can you possibly have a 'soul ,?!?"

That's right.

That's what Bering has done so far.

Chriss, the witch, is the creation of Hermes after all.

As a stealer of the law of the "soul", his products naturally also contain elements of the "soul".

In addition, the witch herself is the original version of the "Philosopher's Stone" that Hermes dived into the abyss in order to carry something, in other words, she is an excellent soul carrier.

And the current ferryman is a pure soul gesture.

What could be a more fitting ending than a vessel created by a man who holds the soul to hold a pure soul?

The only trouble is how to convince the witch to carry out this plan with him.

After all, witches are more cowardly, and once they hear that they may have to deal with the origin, they plan to escape as soon as possible.

However, in the end, under Bering's "friendly" negotiation, the witch immediately became "sensible", and soon realized that her value lay in providing more convenience for the prophet.

Therefore, everyone rejoices.

Thinking of this, Bering clapped his hands lightly.

"Receive." He whispered.

As soon as this sentence came out.

The witch's hand held the ferryman's face, and the foreheads of the two sides touched.

Soon, in the ferryman's incredulous eyes, her figure was sucked into the white ball of light little by little.

Such an approach is silent and absolutely impossible for anyone to detect.

Because the law of the soul is originally an existence that is only slightly inferior to the law of time. Even if it is a personified time, if it is not consciously observed, it is impossible to find similar clues.

Reaching out and grabbing the white ball of light, he looked at the witch curled up and lying in the sphere.

Bering smiled faintly.

In this way, it ......

"And that's it."

A voice came from behind Bering.

And Bering did not turn around.

He just put the ball of light in his pocket and said with a blank face, "I thought you wouldn't come."

Hearing Bering's words, the man chuckled, "No, no, no, how could I not come? If I put you in my shoes, you would do the same thing as I did."

"After all, we're 'the same person' in some ways."

That person, who used to be a person who broke the oath and is now known as ***, said.

Turning his head and looking at the guy who had little to do with his memory, Bering said lightly, "How did you get in...... That's probably a nonsense."

"As the same being, although you are no longer human and do not have the ability to use time, it is not difficult for you to enter the essentially same consciousness space."

Standing on the water, Bering's eyes reflected the man's figure: "However, what I wonder about is what you are here for

What purpose?"

"I thought you'd come, but I couldn't figure out what your purpose was here. You have run out of time, and once I rewind to the present, then you should lose everything here. And you, it seems, have not yet achieved the 'origin', and cannot resist the constraints of time."

Yes.

This is also what makes Bering wonder.

According to his guess, the oath-breaker must have already fulfilled the origin.

You know, Bering has been dragged down by the ferryman for a lot of time here, and if this time is used, there is no reason why the oathbreaker can't deal with one of his cores.

The oath-breaker just smiled and said, "Who knows, I used to be able to say a thing or two, but now I don't see fate......

As he spoke, the oath-breaker sighed abruptly, "Oh, I almost forgot that you are also a prophet like me before, no way, it's really a professional habit, and I can't help but say something in the clouds."

"Well, it's pretty simple anyway," the oathbreaker spread his hands, "I'm not sure I've absorbed my core and become the Origin myself, it's that simple."

"It's not as easy as you think to become an Origin, and if you really only need one core, then why did I have to divide so many cores in the first place? Not to mention that now my path to becoming the Origin has almost been cut off by you."

He said, "You killed the 'Pale Lady, Core, didn't you?"

The oathbreaker was talking about the time of Shinkaishi.

Bering took advantage of the prophet's inertia and killed the core of the Pale Lady.

Shrugging his shoulders, the Oathbreaker said, "I've already lost a core, and it's too difficult to use conventional methods to achieve the Origin. So, I changed my mind a little bit."

"If you can't become an Origin yourself, then borrow someone else's body," he said, "so I helped Lionheart become an Origin - of course, there are a lot of tricks and tricks in between, so he's not really a complete Origin, but at least it's enough to be a shell of an being."

"Then, I will pull someone out of the Gap of Time and let her descend on the Lionheart. At the same time, follow her wishes and let her take the initiative to find you."

"In the end, it's up to you to take whatever it is, in short, to get rid of her. Now her soul is yours and sealed in the law."

Pulling his collar, the oath-bearer said slowly, "And I'm going to take my body next."

Accept his ...... Body.

Hearing this, Bering's pupils shrank slightly.

"You didn't want the Lionheart's body from the beginning," Bering said slowly, "When you helped the Lionheart achieve the Origin, what you wanted was to use his body as a ferryman's support."

"Then, after her soul has been sealed by me, you will enter the Narrow Chambers of Time and take the empty Ferryman's body for yourself."

Bering's complexion changed slightly.

"What you want is to be like the ferryman?!"

Listen to this sentence.

The smile on the oathbreaker's face remained the same.

It was as if he was acquiescing to his answer.
