"You should have discovered that there are still many mysteries about your father."

The layers of doors were spread out one after another, Jiang Shouyun put his hands in his pants pockets, and said very naturally: "Have you tried to find anything in the past few days?" ”

The two walked side by side in a dimly lit hallway.

"Yes."

With the lights around him flickering on and off, Chu Zihang said softly: "I searched for half-bloods and dragons on the Internet, but I didn't find anything abnormal. ”

"It wasn't until I tried searching for 'Kassel Academy' that I finally found some clues online."

During the three days that Jiang Shouyun fell into a coma, he wandered away like a lonely ghost in the rain.

While harboring a glimmer of hope, he is also looking for traces of men.

And he thought of a name that the man had inadvertently said on that fateful night.

- Kassel Academy.

"The relevant entries on the Internet are only two digits, and clicking on the relevant links is only one page of introduction to private aristocratic universities."

"How?"

Walking to a door for bioverification, Jiang Shouyun stretched out his hand and pressed on it and asked casually.

The door slid open to both sides, and Chu Zihang followed closely behind.

"Lush gardens, old buildings, verdant paths, and awards and accolades, a private university in the suburbs of Chicago in the Great Lakes region of Illinois."

His eyes flashed with gold, and he said indifferently: "It doesn't look any different from famous universities abroad, at most its reputation is a little small." ”

No difference?

"If your father is a madman who is out of the ordinary."

Jiang Shouyun smiled and said softly: "Then, how can a place that can be called a gathering place for madmen by madmen be an ordinary foreign university?" ”

It must have been a gathering place for "hybrids".

"Yes." Chu Zihang exhaled deeply, "The emblem of that university is the same as the logo on that suitcase. ”

"It's all a half-decayed World Tree."

Coming to the end of the corridor, Jiang Shouyun pushed open the final door.

This white room, which is locked in the innermost part of the corridor, is about 100 square meters, and it is as bright as day when it is fully equipped with electrical equipment.

On the lab table are many distillation flasks, test tubes, utensils, and a Bunsen burner with a flickering red and blue flame.

There are also glass bottles containing a clear solution containing some of the rarer plant specimens, some of which are animal organ specimens such as eyeballs and livers.

It seems to have been catalyzed by an unknown degree and method, so it has become something with an extremely strange shape.

"I used to use enchantment to come in directly, and you were the first living person I brought here." Jiang Shouyun said extremely terrifying words in an emotional tone.

But Chu Zihang didn't care about this, and looked straight at the center of the laboratory.

The most conspicuous thing in the entire laboratory is the columnar glass container with a few pipes in the middle and a blue solution.

The instrument hummed and kept running.

And inside the transparent glass container, an illusory white figure floated, there was a hole in the middle of his chest, and his eyes were closed as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

"Maybe in your eyes, he's not a good father."

Jiang Shouyun took a step closer, patted Chu Zihang's shoulder, and sighed: "But he can indeed be regarded as a real man, a real warrior. ”

"Although I brought his spirit back, his will and faith were one of the keys."

Chu Zihang stared blankly at the figure covered in white matter, even if he couldn't see his face, he could recognize the man's figure.

The figure once stood in front of him, as majestic as a mountain, deep in his memory.

"He ......" Chu Zihang's voice was hoarse, and he asked, "Are you still alive?" ”

"It depends on your understanding and cognition of death."

Jiang Shouyun subconsciously touched the bandages on his eyes, looked at the figure and said softly: "At least in my eyes, he is not dead, but he has changed his life form and fallen into a short sleep. ”

In that world where there is a "Grim Reaper".

Some of the undead are hindered by their nostalgia for the present world or other factors, so they cannot ascend to heaven and wander in some places that attract them.

If you are tormented by years of grief or continuous guidance by external factors, you will eventually degenerate into an evil spirit.

- that is, the so-called "virtuality".

However, almost all "Grim Reapers" have a consensus.

"Void" only harms other souls, and it is an existence that only has desires and no value.

In order to protect those good and normal souls, "void" is the goal of the purification of the "god of death".

But as an experimental assistant that Aizen once trusted, and personally participated in the "virtual" face-breaking experiment, Jiang Shouyun naturally knew the value of "virtuality".

After a moment of silence, the golden flame in Chu Zihang's eyes dissipated.

Not extinguished by despair, but by a return to sanity.

"How do you wake him up?" Chu Zihang asked softly.

"Devour, devouring." Jiang Shouyun added, "Devour more of your kind, the souls of those half-bloods. ”

If one "void" constantly devours other "voids", then it is possible to evolve into a higher level of "great voids".

And the "Great Void" is divided into three levels: "Killian", "Achucas" and "Vastod".

Hundreds of "voids" have to go through a long period of killing and eroding each other before they can finally merge into the so-called lower-level great void "Killian".

However, "Killian" has an IQ similar to that of a beast, and has no individual consciousness, acting purely instinctively.

Only by constantly devouring the "Great Void" of the same level and evolving to the intermediate Great Void "Yachucas" can one have the opportunity to have an individual consciousness that is not weaker than others.

"Your father didn't know what method he used, he stimulated his bloodline to the limit, and finally almost turned into one of those irrational Deadpools, and his soul was strengthened in the process of being eroded by his bloodline."

Jiang Shouyun briefly explained the evolution system of "Void", adding: "His current spirit body is infinitely close to the lower-level Great Void, and only by devouring souls of the same level can he continue to evolve. ”

That is, the souls of ordinary humans and half-breeds are useless.

“…… Do you have to evolve to the Intermediate Great Void to regain consciousness and sanity? ”

"Yes." Jiang Shouyun nodded, "Now it's me who suppresses his spirit body, otherwise what you see now is not a sleeping 'void', but a beast that bares its teeth at you." ”

- If he can really evolve to the level of "Yachucas", he will be able to break the man's mask with Honyu and make it "reaperified" and become a powerful "broken face".

However, Jiang Shouyun did not tell Chu Zihang these words.

Chu Zihang didn't ask much, just walked to the container and put his hand on the glass.

He felt the coldness that seemed to sink into his bones, and said softly, "It's cold here, isn't it?" ”

Maybe it's a little late, but if he can, he wants to do something for this man, whatever the cost.

"Do you remember the 'Haunted House Murder Case' mentioned by Lu Mingfei and your father?"

Jiang Shouyun, who was behind him, suddenly spoke, and said softly: "If you go and take a look, maybe you will gain something." ”
