Chapter 375: One Thing Descends One Thing
The final experiment lasted a full hour. By the time the experiment was over, the shadows vanished, and the two girls were ostracized back to the surface, they had become two wriggling shadows.
"That's right, this is it! I've been waiting for the first perfect piece for thousands of years! The person behind the curtain trembled slightly in an excited tone, and while controlling his shadow to cover the larger shadow in it, he hurriedly waved his hand to the hemp pole man behind him: "Quick, control the other one too!" ”
"Yes!" The man nodded, took out a glass bottle, walked quickly to the other shadow, and reached out to grab the shadow.
As a result, before he could bend down, there was a beast-like roar in the large shadow group next to him, and then a huge black shadow suddenly burst out of it, transforming into a pitch-black shadow ghost more than three meters high.
This sudden change made the people behind the scenes also stunned, and hurriedly tried to control the shadow under their feet, but after the furious shadow ghost solved the pockbrush man, he immediately aimed his attack at him.
Before his shadow began to change, he raised his arm and slapped the person behind the curtain away.
The violent force made the people behind the scenes bleed instantly, and their bodies disintegrated and died when they flew in mid-air. A few seconds later, both of them were resurrected more than a dozen meters away.
"Impossible, how can this be?" The man looked at the shadow ghost in the distance, dominated by rage, and was frantically smashing things around.
The shadow ghost who has just completed the 'experiment' is like a newborn baby, it should be extremely weak, how can it be so strong when it is born?
And, it seems that the effect of breaking free from the shackles of shadows?
"Nothing is impossible!" The person behind the curtain on the side looked at the shadow ghost in front of him, but he was even more excited: "Obviously, the experiment was more successful than we thought!" The shadow ghost in its perfect state can actually be so powerful, which is far beyond the previous calculations...... It seems that some of the experimental data in the past needs to be modified......"
"President, what now?" The man asked.
"Go get the seal box and seal it first."
"Yes!" …… While the two of them were busy fighting the Berserk Shadow Ghost, they didn't notice that another shadow on the ground had transformed into the outline of a bob-headed girl, like a fish, and began to swim on the ground, quietly swimming all the way to the box at the edge of the high platform, and burrowing through the gap in the box...... In the dark corridor of the hospital, Ye Rumeng stared blankly at the shadow on the ground, and then turned his head to look at the window next to him.
Reflected in the glass, she had become another person, waist-length black hair, red eyes...... Only then did she realize that she had already changed back to sleeping when she had run through the darkness just now.
"Mengmeng......" Mianmian hurriedly turned her head and looked at the tall shadow ghost in front of her, unable to hide her tears of sadness.
Once such an innocent girl, she has become what she is now...... She subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch the shadow ghost, but when the shadow ghost noticed her movements, he suddenly ducked to the side, and at the same time let out a low, painful chirp from his mouth, as if warning and begging her not to approach.
"Mengmeng?" Mian Mian was stunned for a moment, and stood in place a little overwhelmed, but she didn't expect Mengmeng to resist her approaching, which made her unexpected.
"Sure enough......" The middle-aged man in the distance, who was immersed in the cylindrical device, suddenly laughed when he saw this scene.
"What do you know?" Mianmian gritted her teeth and looked at the middle-aged man, she knew that this person must know the changes in Mengmeng better than her.
"I have to admit that your fusion is even more perfect than I expected!" The middle-aged humanitarian: "In general, one of the test subjects helps the other to bear the pain, but the shadows of the two still exist independently. Unlike your group, she not only helped you absorb all the painful parts of her shadow, but she also transferred all the good parts of her own shadow to you! ”
"So, your shadows are actually divided into two parts after merging with each other, but one part contains all the hatred and pain, and the other part is only good and good, and it is precisely because of the purity of separation that the shadow ghost is so perfect!"
"And now, if you touch it, your shadow will be re-integrated and distributed, and your extracted memories of suffering will return to you like an imprint, and it doesn't want you to bear even the slightest pain, or rather, the purpose of its existence is to help you bear the pain, from the moment it was born, it has become its instinct, and of course it will avoid you."
"Mengmeng......" Mianmian was teary-eyed again when she heard this, and looked distressedly at the shadow ghost who was carefully avoiding her, even if she lost her memory and became a monster with only instinct, she was still guarding the last obsession.
"Although I sealed this shadow ghost at that time, I still can't use it for myself without the existence of your 'controller'." The middle-aged man continued to speak in a flat tone, as if telling something that had nothing to do with him: "So after that, I spent a lot of effort looking for you, and for this reason, I did not hesitate to throw this shadow ghost out as bait, and made some cooperation with the organization of the Celestial Empire. At one point, he almost caught you halfway, and even installed a positioning device for you, but he didn't expect your ability to be so difficult, and that organization was enough wastewood, not only lost the shadow ghost, but even its own organization was destroyed, causing all the clues to sink into the sea...... "Mu You silently listened to the other party's explanation, and the 'Celestial Empire Organization' in the other party's mouth should refer to the Illuminati.
It seems that the reason why the shadow ghost box appeared in the hands of the Illuminati was precisely to attract the little girl to appear, and it seems to have almost succeeded, and the positioning necklace on her body should have been installed at that time.
Fortunately, the little girl's elusive ability to fall asleep was strong enough, so she escaped, and after that, there was a rebellion within the Illuminati, and the shadow ghost box fell into his hands by mistake.
It was no accident that the little girl would appear in his store before, but she was attracted by the shadow ghost box.
She and the Shadow Ghost of the Box are intertwined with each other, and there is a constant connection, no matter how far apart, fate and cause and effect in the dark will always bring them together.
"Since then, I've tried many times to find other children who are deep enough to replicate the process of your group's experiments. Unfortunately, even if I try my best to simulate your situation, I will never be able to replicate your miracles. The middle-aged man shook his head with emotion: "Otherwise, I should have completely controlled the Shadow God by now and become the only true god on this continent, where would there be these things later, it's a pity ......"
"Is that all there is to your last words?" Mu You exhaled and had already drawn his wand.
"Last words?" The middle-aged man glanced up at him, smiled wryly, and didn't defend anything, but looked down at the circle of shadow ghosts in front of the device.
"These shadow ghosts are all high-quality shadow ghosts that I have personally cultivated over the years, although they are not as powerful as the fourteenth, but each of them also has a strength close to the legendary level." Mu You looked at him with a strange face: "Do you think that relying on the protection of these shadow ghosts can let you survive?" "It's more troublesome to deal with so many shadow ghosts, but after all, he has a shadow pom-pom in his hand now, even if he can't beat it, he can directly purify all of them, these shadow ghosts are no different from ordinary shadows in front of the shadow pom-pom.
What's more, killing the opponent doesn't need to fight the shadow ghost at all, just smash the opponent's life-saving device directly, and the suppressive power of the death knell will naturally wipe him out.
"Of course not." The middle-aged man shook his head: "You can even deal with a complete shadow god, not to mention a few hundred shadow ghosts, I have never thought of fighting you since the moment the shadow god was defeated." ”
"And what are you?"
"These shadow ghosts are my gift for you." The middle-aged man said: "The shadow pom-pom devours the shadow to grow, and it also depends on the quality, and the shadow that is fed is too poor, and its growth rate will be extremely slow." Feeding all of these good shadows to the Shadow Pom Pom should be enough to keep it through its infancy. ”
"Oh? Want to bribe me? "Mu You understands in seconds.
"It's understandable. Anyway, I want to make a deal with you. ”
"What deal?" Mu You didn't rush to do it, and planned to listen to what the other party wanted to say.
"As you can see, I have lost the shadow pom-pom, and I have lost all my strength, and I have become an old man in my last years, and it is difficult to even protect myself, and I will no longer pose any threat to you, I only hope to spend the last period of my old age as an ordinary person." The middle-aged man looked at Mu You and said, "And in return for letting me go, in addition to these shadows, I will also send you the results of my research over the years!" I have been studying underground for more than a thousand years, and it is not in vain, and in the process of cultivating the Shadow Pom-pom, I have discovered some secrets about the 'gods' and even the truth of this world! As if in order to confirm the truth of his words, the middle-aged man hurriedly added two sentences after speaking: "For example, it is clear that the lifespan of the Star Spirit Realm can be obtained infinitely, but why has there never been a true immortal person so far?" For another example, the lifespan of the various races in the astral spirit realm seems to be long, but the really researchable history is pitifully short, only less than four thousand years or so, and the history of the previous one is a blur, leaving almost no substantive records, why? The middle-aged man looked at Mu You confidently: "I believe that these things will be of interest to you, as long as you sign a contract, I will tell you everything you know, how about it?" "There is no eternal man?
Mu You frowned when he heard this, he hadn't paid much attention to this before, but now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed that at least among the human race, he had not seen any immortal people, and the longest-lived ones seemed to be the elders of the Wizarding Association, and they only lived for more than a thousand years.
Mu You pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's a pity, I refuse." ”
"Refuse?" The middle-aged man was a little incredulous: "You are a fool, the exploration of true knowledge should be something engraved in your bones, how can you refuse?" ”
"Because I'll find out the truth myself, and I don't have to know it from you." Mu lobbied. It's mainly the two questions raised by the other party, even if he learns about it, there is no direct improvement for him, and immortality is too far away from him, and he will have time to explore it slowly in the future.
"That'...... It's really a pity......" The middle-aged man sighed, as if he understood his fate and didn't struggle anymore.
"Smack!" In front of the device, one of the chains that bound the shadow ghost suddenly broke. The shadow ghost froze for a few seconds before realizing that it had been freed, but instead of immediately going crazy, it slowly turned around and turned its gaze towards the middle-aged man in the device, revealing a fierce face.
"Papapa......" Immediately after that, more chains broke off one by one. Hundreds of shadow ghosts, all freed at this moment.
All the shadow ghosts turned in unison to look at the cylindrical device that surrounded the center, a thick sense of rage and hatred emanating from them.
"Phew!" As the first shadow ghost took the lead, the cylindrical device shattered, and the middle-aged man was rushed out with the liquid in it, and was slapped into the ground by the shadow ghost.
The other shadow ghosts around also roared in unison, and then rushed towards the middle-aged man...... In the next few minutes, hundreds of shadow ghosts surrounded the middle-aged man and carried out a brutal massacre against him.
The middle-aged man continued to resurrect and die, and on the way he transformed into various forms of shadow ghosts, to no avail, until all the shadow ghost skin was exhausted, and he changed back to his original appearance, an old man with gray hair and drooping old age.
The people behind the scenes did not try to resist again, and did not say a word the whole time, allowing the claws of the shadow ghosts to continue to tear on their bodies, and they were torn to pieces again and again and then resurrected, and then died, and then resurrected, until their life was completely exhausted...... After a few minutes, the berserk group of shadow ghosts in the distance finally had no targets to vent to, but after eliminating the culprit, they were still not satisfied, and quickly turned around and aimed at the three of them.
"You can't control it if you keep it, let's purify it all." Looking at the black pressure in front of him and the group of shadow ghosts rushing over, Mu You shook his head and threw the shadow pom-pom.
The shadow pom-pom fell in front of the three of them, facing the group of shadow ghosts rushing towards it, and immediately opened its mouth, and a strange wave emanated from it, this fluctuation had no effect on people, but it was a nemesis-like existence for the surrounding shadow ghosts.
Under this fluctuation, all the shadow ghosts suddenly stood still, and a large amount of black qi emerged from their bodies and disappeared into the air, while the shadow ghosts quickly shrunk in size.
In just a dozen seconds, all the shadow ghosts turned into ordinary shadows, slamming around on the ground like headless flies, and finally swallowed by the shadow pompoms one by one, all of them into the shadow room, as spare food for the next year.
Of course, not all the shadow ghosts have been purified and disappeared, and the box shadow ghosts around Mu You and the others still maintain their original body shape after experiencing that fluctuation, and they don't look the same.
Shadow Pompom quickly shifted his attention to the only remaining Shadow Ghost. Unconvinced, Shadow Pom-pom jumped in front of the Shadow Ghost and opened its mouth towards it, sending out an even stronger wave of purification.
However, no matter how hard it tried, the shadow ghost in front of it just didn't move. After two consecutive attempts to no avail, the shadow pom-pom seemed to be a little unable to hang up, and its little face was wrinkled, and it looked like it was holding its breath, as if it was saving a wave of greater fluctuations.
But before it was ready, the shadow ghost above was impatient, and suddenly slapped down, and the shadow pom-pom suddenly bounced back and forth on the ground and the shadow ghost's palm more than a dozen times like a leather ball, and when it stopped, it was already completely full of stars, confused, and the facial features on the face were flattened.
Still not satisfied, the Shadow Ghost held the Shadow Pom-pom in his hands with both hands, kneading it around like a piece of plasticine, until he had had enough of it.
As soon as the shadow pom-pom landed, he hurriedly jumped back into Mu You's shadow, and quickly got into the shadow, never daring to raise his head again.
The three of them were watching interestingly on the side, but Mianmian suddenly felt heavy eyelids, and fell straight forward, but fortunately Mu Youyan was quickly catched.
Looking down, Mu You found that she had actually fallen asleep, and this narcolepsy attack was really anytime and anywhere, without warning.
"Roar!" The shadow ghost next to him suddenly roared, and glared at Mu You with black qi surging all over his body, opening his teeth and dancing his claws.
"What? It's none of my business, she's asleep on her own! Mu You said busily.
"Roar!" The shadow ghost roared again, this time elongating a bit, as if trying to say something.
"Don't worry, I'll take her back to the pet store and won't leave her alone." Mu You naturally couldn't understand the words of the shadow ghost, but after all, he had been with this guy for a long time, and he could probably guess what it wanted to express.
The Shadow Ghost has a low IQ and can't tell the good from the bad in the human world, but both it and the little girl have lived in a pet store for a long time, and only it is a safe place for the Shadow Ghost to recognize.
"Woo......" The shadow ghost let out a low cry this time, as if he was satisfied with Mu You's answer, and put away the anger on his body.
"What about you? What's next? Mu You looked at the shadow ghost again, took out the shadow ghost box, opened the lid and handed it to it: "If you don't worry about her, you might as well go back with me, and you will guard her by yourself." As soon as the sealing box appeared, the shadow ghost suddenly took a step back with some vigilance, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he suddenly slapped the box and flew it away.
Immediately, the shadow ghost jumped directly behind Mu You, turned into a black shadow, and burrowed into Mu You's shadow. Mu You hurriedly checked the shadow.
At this moment, in the shadow room, the shadow ghost is persecuting the shadow pom-pom, chasing the shadow pom-pom all over the ground, and after chasing it, it is used as a decompression toy, holding it in his arms and kneading it wantonly.
"It's really a thing to drop a thing...... Mu You shook his head amusedly, got up and walked to the cylindrical device in the distance, and picked up the remnants of the shadow ghosts scattered all over the ground.
However, just as he was busy picking up the loot, a dark blue ghost suddenly floated above the shattered device on the side.
Mu You was stunned for a moment, turned his head to take a look, and was speechless: "You are enough to resist beating, so you won't die?" The soul that appeared at this time was the remnant soul of the old man behind the scenes just now, but this remnant soul was already looming, extremely weak, and could dissipate at any time.
The condition for the appearance of a remnant soul is that when a person dies, if there is still some kind of strong hatred or obsession in the spirit that has not been completed, there is a certain chance of forming a remnant soul, but if this remnant soul is not preserved in a special container in time, it will still dissipate quickly.
"I was going to get rid of it...... But it wasn't until I was dying that I realized that I really wasn't willing to study something all my life...... Just disappear without a sound...... There is no trace left...... "The remnant said intermittently.
"So?" Mu You raised his eyebrows.
"So...... Think of it as a reward for preventing the Shadow God from reappearing and saving the world...... The innermost side of the Gu Pond platform, counting the third floor tile from due north, fifteen meters below...... Everything I studied was ...... Save it there......"
