A month later, I found a way to resurrect the sirens.

Let's start with what happened after the Nightmare Liucheng incident.

First of all, the most important part, about the millions of people who have evaporated from the world in Nightmare Willow City, they have all returned to the real Willow City safe and sound after the collapse of Nightmare Willow City. Because Bai Ju originally intended to make them undead, he didn't let the demons attack them, but just transferred them to the depths of Nightmare Willow City.

It is said to be "deep", but from their point of view, it is actually the late night Liucheng that suddenly became empty. For a while after they were liberated, they still remembered their mysterious experiences, and the whole society also broke out a huge public opinion storm against Liucheng, which had been an empty city for a while. However, only a month has passed, and public opinion has turned to a new hot spot. It's not that the government is manipulating public opinion behind the scenes, it's just that everyone is gradually becoming indifferent to it. The citizens of Liucheng who experienced the huge turmoil themselves will still talk about it from time to time in their lives, but after a while, it will become completely as if it never happened.

They don't know what threatens them or what saves them, and they just go back to their old lives as they are. Looking at these changes, I sometimes think of what Fa Zheng said. Is it because he is tired of such contrasts that he is crazy about pursuing new worlds? But I still don't think he was right.

And Hakuma, his purpose is probably just to "go home".

Lie Que did not die in the battle with Fazheng, but he reluctantly launched the Outbreak Secret Method under the condition of being seriously wounded, and once fell into a situation of near death. I heard in the hospital the other day that he was barely out of danger. Life is saved, and fighting like in the past will not work. This time, he was really seriously injured, and he could no longer return to the realm of a super-main warlock.

Fa Zheng was confirmed dead. The man who killed him was not Lieq, but the Blue Bird.

In fact, Fa Zheng really had the advantage in the battle with Lieq. Lie Que was originally injured in battle, even if he used the Explosion Secret Method, he couldn't exert the power beyond Fa Zheng, not to mention that Fa Zheng also used a huge demon to consume Lie Que a lot first, and then as long as he used delaying tactics to slowly figure it out, he could win. And under such conditions, Lieqi still forced Fazheng to the point of exhaustion.

Compared with Lieqing, Fa Zheng has regarded it as an imaginary enemy since a long time ago, and has prepared a lot of means of restraint; Not to mention that he also knows the fundamentals of the column deficiency, and he knows the weaknesses of the column deficiency and the hole cards that may be played. With the blessing of many advantages, Fa Zheng almost killed Lie Que.

At this moment, the blue bird, who was far away in the Liucheng Security Bureau and sensed that the spiritual fluctuations of the column was suppressed to the point that he was about to run out of oil, attacked without hesitation. For the blue bird who can turn into thunder and grasp the road map, the distance between herself and the battlefield is simply one step, and she protects Lieque's body in one breath.

In order to recover enough to fight, Bluebird had planned to strike after us. At this time, although she is not necessarily restored, it is just that Fa is consuming more in the battle with Lieque.

And Fa Zhengze didn't expect the blue bird to appear in front of him at all, he probably thought that the blue bird was incapacitated due to the last outbreak secret method. When it comes to true combat effectiveness, he is half a level above the blue bird, but at this moment, he has become powerless, and he can't run away from the blue bird's speed. In the end, the blue bird killed it with his own hands.

The nightmare Liucheng incident has come to an end.

It wasn't just Lieqiao who was admitted to the hospital with serious injuries, I was the same. Super-fast regeneration is the power that the sirens have given me, and although I still have unusually fast regeneration, it is not so ridiculously efficient. And I can't absorb and burn the spirit fragments by myself, and I can't use so much spiritual power to regenerate my body and spirit body.

As a result, my spirit did not fall into structural disintegration, but was still suffering from severe burns. Burns of this magnitude used to be repaired by just a thought, but now it is much more troublesome. It wasn't until today, a month later, that I was finally able to take care of myself.

In fact, just like the "worst-case scenario" I thought of earlier, it wasn't me who really paid the price for the "full burn mode", but the sirens.

Not only in "Full Burn Mode", but also in "Soul Burn Mode".

In the past, I have wondered a few times, why could I, a person who could not even be a warlock, burst out with such a powerful power by burning my soul? I had doubts, but I never looked into them. After all, I, an "ordinary person", can use the power of true spirits that almost all warlocks can't use, and even if there is any unfamiliar power hidden in my soul, it is not worth making a fuss. Besides, I had the idea that even if the Sirens did hide some devastating consequences from me with the "Soul Burn Mode" skill, I would be willing to bear it with my own life on the crusade against evil.

But what if this power does not come primarily from my burning, but from the burning of the sirens?

Maybe the reason why Hakukoma can't see through my "full burning mode" is not because my "hiding" trumps his "awareness", but simply because it is not my soul that is completely burning.

Just as I wanted to sacrifice myself to keep the sirens alive, the sirens wanted to sacrifice myself to keep me alive.

I was unaware of the "full burning mode" anomaly until the end, most likely because the sirens were confusing my senses. Since last year when I learned that she could control my perception, I had assumed that she would be able to control even my perception in the future. It stands to reason that I would not misjudge my own life and death. I don't know if she used this hand to make me mistakenly believe that it was my soul that burned completely, and specially fabricated the illusion that I would die because of it.

Even if I guessed this, I still had a lot of questions that I couldn't understand. For example, who is the siren, why did she give so much for me, and why did she become my weapon after all...... And what exactly she meant by that last paragraph.

For the last part, I actually had a vague answer the moment I heard it.

And her suicide note answered all of my questions.

——

The siren's dream was gone, replaced by a mysterious book lying on the grass. After opening it and just looking at it, I immediately understood that this was the siren's suicide note.

Ever since I decided to trust her, I have never asked her about her true origins, and she has never mentioned it. And when she was about to be destroyed, she compiled her past memories into books and left them in dreams for me to read.

By the way, she also got all the spirit fragments of Bai Ju after I killed him, but there seems to be no memory of Bai Ju in it, and I don't know if Bai Ju deleted all of them herself, or if she didn't have time to extract them. Even the latter is not a big deal, and Hakukoma himself has said that the knowledge of the ritual of resurrecting "it" cannot be deleted. So she extracted it when she was about to be wiped out and put it in the appendix of her suicide note.

Let's talk about her true origin first.

In fact, the answer is already obvious, the sirens are my children and "it".

Strictly speaking, the sirens are not a specific offspring. There have been many children between me and "it" in the past, and the sirens are a fusion of the echoes of these children.

I've mentioned this to Bluebird before. The offspring between me and "it" is certainly not human, not even humanoid, not even viviparous, but ugly and terrifying-looking, twisted and broken oviparous monsters. Like their mothers, they have cruel and crazy habits, and love to eat human flesh. My instinct tells me that if these monsters are allowed to remain in the world, sooner or later a terrible calamity will brew. At the same time, although I loved "it" deeply, I did not have the psychology of loving the house and the black for its children, so I "dealt with" it all.

Although they all have incredible immortality, I believe that I have killed them completely. Because my murder weapon is a siren's blade, a terrifying weapon capable of bringing destruction to both body and spirit.

Later, I realized that there are monsters in this world that don't really die even if both the body and the spirit body die. This is true for otherworldly ghosts, and it is also true for Stage 3 undead. Even if both physical and spiritual bodies are destroyed, they can exist in the world in the form of "echoes" that cannot be explained by theory. Not even the Siren's Blade could kill such an object.

I was a stage 3 immortal under the influence of "it" during the demon period, and how could the heir born from the union between me and "it" be a life that could easily die after being destroyed by the destruction of my body and spirit?

The children did not really die, but became "reverberators". At the same time, although I killed them with questions and fears, they had not yet had time to learn to hate. They are still looking forward to me and "it" acceptance, haunting me all the time, sometimes whispering illusory whispers in my ear. They don't dare to approach "it" because, unlike me, "it" is able to realize the "echo", and even its own essence is some kind of "echo" that is extremely terrifying.

It's just that even they can't think completely in the pure "echo" form, in fact, the "echo" is not a form of existence that can retain reason in the first place, at most they can only maintain their self-consciousness in a muddy way, and continue to feel pain and despair. And the reason why they can still "hope" and "whisper" is because after I killed them, they kept some of their spirit fragments.

Absorbing, devouring, and digesting spirit fragments was not the power of sirenblades in the first place, but their power. Spirits slain by the Siren's Blade are reduced to countless fragments, and when they are killed, they retain a few fragments of their own spirits, thus preserving their ability to think.

However, now that even the fragments of the Siren's spirit were completely burned, and she was in pure echo form. In the future, she will only be able to maintain this twisted form forever - if nothing else.

To get back to the point, at the end of the Demon Period, I was arrested by Lie's team and trapped in a healing dream. And they wanted to be of use to me, so they rolled up the remnants of the spirit fragments and integrated themselves into the "Rensai" I saw in my healing dreams.

Now that I think about it, she had already given a hint about her true identity at that time. She said that her spirit had been damaged to the point where there were almost no reverberations left, and that if I could combine the information of the ghosts of the other world and the stage 3 immortals, I could easily guess the possibility that "those heirs were not dead back then", and even directly associated with the siren's body.

However, I never thought of this layer. Is it because there are not enough leads? Or is it because my reasoning skills are not good enough to reason to this level? Maybe there are some of them, but I know what the main reason is.

It's just that I don't really care about them, and I don't even remember them.

After all, are they really "cruel and crazy monsters with a penchant for human flesh"? The sirens who appeared in front of me never showed cruel and crazy habits, and judging by their behavior on Chinese New Year's Eve, the sirens never refused ordinary food like "it".

So, could they just be imitating me, imitating their own mother?

The reason why the sirens have always resisted revealing their true identity to me is because they are afraid of being abandoned by me, or even killed by me again. So even if it's a weapon, it's okay, or maybe the weapon stance makes her feel more at ease.

Because she was born with the immortality of a stage three immortal, even if I died, she wouldn't die. However, she always stressed to me that if I died, she would die too. This is because in her opinion, she must be a thing that lives and dies with me in order to gain my unconditional trust.

She feared that if I realized that she was an individual who "could live without me", I would re-examine her with suspicion, the unknown person who lurked within me and could manipulate my senses. Actually, she later knew I wouldn't do that, but she was terrified of even the 1 in 10,000 chance. She couldn't forget the desperate memories of being stared at indifferently by me and "it", no matter how much she screamed.

But she still longs for my approval and wants to be embraced by me.

I recalled the conversation I had with the Siren in the first dream, when she first appeared in front of me and announced her home to me.

- Who are you?

I am the light of your life, the fire of your desires,

- Your sin, your soul.

The voices of the past seemed to echo in my ears. yes, that's not bad at all.

You are the crystallization of my life and desires, the embodiment of my sins and soul. It's my hopeless past, and it's something I have to make amends in the future.

I want to resurrect the Sirens, and I already see concrete hope.

To do this, I must first fulfill the promise I made with the Blue Bird, and I must first resurrect "it".

——

The beginning and end of the battle with the white horse, the truth about the sirens, I naturally told all the truth to the blue bird.

Knowing that I originally wanted to die with the white horse, the blue bird naturally couldn't calm down. And after hearing that I had injected "pollution" into her body, she showed an extremely nervous expression.

But now I'm not immortal, I guess the sirens transferred the "pollution" to themselves.

In the past, I fought with the old bones to the point of near death, and then went to the lake at the foot of the nameless mountain. At that time, I was actually an immortal in Stage 3, and in order to prevent me from falling into "death", she did one thing, and that was to reawaken my Siren Blade.

"It" can develop my true spirit powers, and so can the sirens. Even the Sirens went one step further and became one with it by possessing it on my Siren Blade, turning the Siren Blade into a fully awakened power. To describe it, the "it" of the past only helped me open the door to power, so that I could borrow what was behind the door; The sirens, on the other hand, took possession of what was behind the door and gave it to me along with it.

After merging with the Siren's Blade, the Sirens have certain special attributes, such as being able to master the spells I have mastered simultaneously, can also support me with their own powers, and can transfer my curses to the Siren's Blade, etc.

Because "pollution" has a curse-like nature, I once wondered if the sirens had transferred the "pollution" of my stage three undead. And I later withdrew the idea, and the time was not right. The ability of the siren to awaken was after the Fog of White Sun incident, and I am not an immortal after the Old Bone incident.

And from the siren's suicide note, I already know that she will transfer this ability from the beginning. If you think about it, her ability to transfer curses is also a bit strange, because all other aspects of her abilities are acquired through her own learning and development, but the ability to transfer curses appears on her own as she grows. If her growth leads to new abilities, why hasn't this phenomenon continued after that? It is said that the ability to have it from the beginning is not so disobedient.

Her purpose in withholding this information is to artificially design this "time is not right" conclusion. Because if I knew about the existence of "pollution" in the future, I would realize that she had obtained the immortality of stage 3 by transferring "pollution", and judge her as an independent individual who "can live without it". And she didn't want me to make that judgment.

Of course, even if she doesn't transfer "pollution", she still has the immortality of stage three. At the price, she is now in a distorted form.

Every moment she didn't come alive was hell for me, as if there was an invisible blade that was slowly and delicately chopping through my body. I wondered why it had fallen to the sirens if there really was a fate to punish me. Or is it not the so-called fate that will really punish me, but the sirens?

According to past experience, the stage three immortals that turn into "reverberations" are irretrievable, but in the siren's body, I see an exception.

The first thing to note is that the Siren is now invisible, but it is still attached to the Siren Blade, so I can continue to summon the Siren Blade as well. And these days I've noticed that the fragments of the spirit stored inside the Siren's Blade are decreasing for no reason and in small amounts, and I'm faintly catching the siren's extremely subtle spiritual fluctuations.

I quickly realized the truth about this anomaly. I'm afraid this is something that even the sirens themselves didn't predict.

The siren has the power to devour the souls of those killed by the siren's blade, but when you look closely, why does she have such power? I think it's probably due to "it's" genetics. For the "it" with the flesh, spreading death by devouring the people who died because of itself is also part of the mimicry of the creature, and the siren, as the offspring of the "it" with that body, eating is not imitation, it is instinct for her.

For otherworldly ghosts, "reverberation" is originally their most natural form, and neither the flesh nor the spirit is their essence, so it is not necessary to have the body or spirit to exert their instincts. As a creature close to the ghost of the other world, the siren can continue to eat souls instinctively, even if she only has "echoes" left.

As long as you stay inside the Siren's Blade and continue to eat the spirit fragments, the Siren can recover their spirit and return to life.

However, perhaps because her current form is too weak, the speed of recovery is too slow. According to my calculations, this year will definitely not work, at least until the middle of next year. I only have the last few months left to live, and I can't wait for such a long time.

Unless I first resurrect "it" and prolong my life.

I thought I was going to go through a very big struggle, but I really made this decision very quickly. I immediately decided that I wanted to do it.

To be honest, even if the sirens were to be resurrected soon, I was planning to extend my life a little. Because I don't just want her to live, I also want her to be loved and embraced, and I want to do everything I can to take care of this child.

So, this is my extremely selfish wish: I want to live for a while longer.

In mid-April, in the morning, I went through the discharge procedures.

In the future, I must take on the responsibility of monitoring and managing the ghosts of the other world, and provide "it" with a fresh heart at regular intervals every day. This will be a bit difficult until the sirens are resurrected, as my own regeneration power will not be able to keep up. However, as long as I have the many spell resources of the Security Bureau and the strong regeneration power I already have, it is not difficult to solve this problem.

Bluebird prepared all the ritual materials needed to resurrect the Kraken and climbed the Nameless Mountain with me.

Now that we're all in our twenties, the bluebird has a new white carnation hair ornament pinned to the side of her hair.

"In the end, it wasn't me who saved you, but the child." Bluebird said with a sigh.

"I always thought I was saving you." As she spoke, she turned to look at me, "But I often wonder if my kindness was merely imposed on you, and in your eyes, could I be a person full of malice towards you?" ”

"There's no such thing." I said sincerely, "Thank you for taking me to my parents, thank you for hugging me." ”

If it weren't for Bluebird, I wouldn't have been able to get out of where I am today, and I wouldn't have even been able to get out of the first step. There is no doubt that the bluebird saved me.

She would probably say to me, "What do you thank me?" However, this is indeed my sincere gratitude without any hypocrisy and politeness.

But she didn't say that, but was a little uneasy. I knew what she was thinking, so I gently took her hand.

"Do you remember that question I asked you in the past?" "I know it's going to be hard for you, so it's okay if you don't answer." ”

"Whatever you ask, I'll answer." I said it seriously.

"Then I'm going to ask." She took a deep breath.

"Just ask." I say.

"In your eyes, me or the Kraken, which side is more important?" She asked apprehensively, "Or if you could only choose one between me and the Kraken, who would you want to choose?" ”

This is indeed a question she has asked before, and last time I was caught off guard and even at a loss, and the blue bird at that time stopped asking as if he could see my hesitation.

But this time, I won't hesitate again.

"I choose you." I say.

When I said this, I felt as if the last shackles in my heart had been removed, as if I had finally woken up from something.

"-hmm." Hearing this, she also seemed to have finally been freed from something, revealing a sunny smile.

She took my hand and said, "So, let's get started." ”

"Aren't you worried that I'll be seduced?" I asked.

"You won't be now." She said.

In order to hide people's eyes, we found an open space far away from the mountain road, arranged the ritual circle and materials here, and finally took out the severed hand of "it" from the mini alien space and placed it in the center of the circle.

Indigo light began to appear around the severed hand, and gradually giant eggs were weaving.

After a few moments, the huge egg was fully formed, and from inside it brewed a movement like a fetal movement.

I remember that night a few years ago, when I couldn't find the missing bluebird and could only wander hungrily in the mountains and forests at night.

And today, I came to this place hand in hand with Bluebird. It was noon, the sun was just above the head, the sun was warm and golden on the grass, and the taste of hunger and cold in the past seemed to be a distant dream.

I've been through so many painful things, but I don't hate "it".

In countless dark corners, demons and monsters who don't know what to hug have repeated repeating hugs I don't know how many times. And now, thanks to Bluebird, I already know what a hug is. So, maybe it's a nonsensical idea, and if "it" can also know, how nice it is. In that case, maybe I could call "she" instead of "it".

After some time, the fetal movement of the giant egg stops and ruptures from the lower half. A large amount of fluid like amniotic fluid poured outward, bringing out the upper body of the creature inside.

I walked slowly up to it, and it looked up at me quietly.

Under that immoral and scheming gaze, I took out the clothes I had prepared in advance and draped them over its body.
